I was horrified when I saw the creature that stood there howling. Its head was almost level with the trees and it had lots of eyes. Without knowing it, I counted nine eyes and it had two large holes as a nose. It had no lips, instead a long black tongue that could become longer came back and forth out of its mouth.IItsteeth were like tiny needles, and they seemed very sharp. It howled again a saw us. It made for us."Aah!" I screamed and Daniel tugged on my arm."Dammit! Move Kimberley move!" Daniel shouted and I realized I had been holding on to the tree.This monster had a body like a rock and was worse than the other monster we ran into.It attacked and Daniel threw the both of us on the floor and we rolled and rolled nonstop. The branches and thorns tore at my face and knew faces were smeared with from the ground.Immediately he stood up and dragged me and our bags up and we began to run, then instead of howling, the thing roared and it was a deafening roar that shook the trees,
DANIEL'S POVI looked around for the source of her scream but found nothing, then I saw her stomping her foot down on something and I noticed it was a little bug. Probably a bug she had noticed hiding within her clothes.I sighed. I had thought our endless troubles weren't over.It was only when she looked at me and her mouth fell open that I realized that I was without clothes!"GOOOOOOOOOD!" I exclaimed and ran back into the bathroom.It was so embarrassing.Why had I rushed out so thoughtlessly? I wasn't even conscious of it!"Oh, My GOOOD!" I exclaimed again.Was it possible for a guy to walk out of a bathroom to meet and girl and not realize he had no clothes on? How was I to face her? I sighed as I bit my fingers trying to remember if her eyeballs had gone down but I couldn't recall a thing.KIMBERLEY'S POV.I couldn't help the fits of laughter that gripped me when Daniel exclaimed sharply.When he exclaimed once more in the bathroom, I doubled over.I didn't want to make his si
DANIEL'S POV.I wondered why Kimberley was suddenly so confident. We weren't even sure of the amount of food they were going to serve.But I had to admit, I liked seeing her happy, she was excited over the amount of the money and I was a little too. Because if we had that amount of money in our hands, we were rich.I also liked the way everything had slowed down to a place that was just right for me.All the running and being scared had come to a halt. The city was beginning to look and feel amazing as things started to turn right for us.I thought of all the beatings I had received at the hands of Mr. Michael. Those times had been a dark time for me.As I was immersed in my thoughts, all of a sudden, a thought strayed to my mind.It was the thought of Kimberley. When her soft hands held my cheeks. When she had told me she didn't say a thing. It was as though something had hit my heart because my heart started beating fast. She had looked so beautiful then, with her hair still wet fr
"Is anything wrong?" I asked moving closer to the phone."Please I need the both of you right now." He said in a pleading voice. " Is there a problem? " Daniel asked again." Alright. I'm coming right now . " Mr. Scott said to someone else over the phone. "I'll be expecting you. Thank you." He said to us and disconnected the call.Daniel looked at me."I think we should go." I said. "Seems like he really needs our help." I added and he nodded."Well, we didn't really have much to do anyway, so I guess that's fine. " He said and we stood up and left the hotel. We took a cab back to Mr. Scott's restaurant and upon entering, he was the first man we saw." Oh thank goodness you're here. I'll be happy if I could hire your service for some hours. Two of my employees unexpectedly had some emergencies at home and had to leave work and the customers are coming in non stop. We are short of workers and if these people leave, there'll be rumors about bad service here. I just need you for an hour
KIMBERLEY'S POV.The men dragged me and refused to stop."Where's your phone? Call your boyfriend." One of them said in a rough voice."I tried to tell you my phone fell." I said breathing hard as one of the men removed his large beefy hand from my mouth."Call his number." The fourth one said calmly."I don't know his number off hand." I said. The humans didn't know what they were bringing upon themselves. If my wolf instinct managed to come at the wrong time, they'd be lying on the floor like my phone was surely doing now.I decided not to show fear because fear would only make them more confident."I think she's saying the truth." One said softly after they had all shared looks."Where did you drop it?" Another one asked."Somewhere along the road." I said looking at them defiantly." Sunny, take her with you and make sure you bring the phone. " The one with the calm voice said and sat on a rock.The man called Sunny came and took me roughly by the collar and dragged me away. I won
We took a lot of pictures, after we were given our cheque of $500, 000.We took photos with the judges, the host, Mr Scott and our fellow contestants who accepted the fact that we had won fair and square. All through the celebrations in which everyone present was served food.My mind was on the wolf I saw. I definitely saw his fangs, there were no two ways about that.It was late in the afternoon when everyone started to leave.Then Mr Scott called us to his office.~He sat in his chair beaming and looking at us proudly as though we were his children."How's your arm? Have you been to the clinic?" He asked as he looked at it. " I think we'll stop by today. " I said looking at the arm also." Alright. Then you had better be quick before they close for the day. Okay, I really want to congratulate you for your winnings today. The both of you were awesome." He said with a large smile."Thank you sir." We said in unison."Feel free to work here. Anytime, there are nice positions for you
The police station was filled with people and noise. However, an officer took us into his office. There were two more officers in the office. "So you were witnesses to the kidnapped girl's case last night?" The detective asked. "Yes. It happened right in front of our window. " I said and the man stroked his chin. "And you did nothing to stop it?" He asked looking at us with a weird expression on his face. "We thought he was her dad." Daniel said looking at the man straight in the eye with a defiant expression. We had come to help and I was sure the man was on the verge of thinking we were the ones who kidnapped her. "Okay. We're very sorry. It's just this case has been upsetting. We've been packed with cases recently so a new one has got us really cranky and we just want to do away with it as fast as possible. Do you mind telling us exactly how it happened? " The only lady in the room explained and that put us at ease a little. "We just got the house and we were at our window
I stood there for a long while, listening, hoping to feel someone's presence but the only thing I heard was the occasional hooting of an owl. Everything else was still and quiet."What's wrong Kim?" Daniel asked coming from the door."Oh. It's nothing. Just. Just some.." I said colliding with my words."Give me that." He said as he took the note from my hands."It's no.." I was saying but he had already read it."We'll give this to the detectives tomorrow. I feel bad that it happened to a little girl but I believe the detectives are on top of their jobs. " He said closing the door behind me."You heard them say they've got a whole lot of cases to attend to. There are other victims out there waiting for those detectives and I don't know why I feel that little girl must be crying right now. I saw her. If only I knew, I could have saved her. " I said feeling horribly guilty." But you didn't know Kimberley, you weren't aware. I'm sure she'll be found. This note was dropped by hand. The m
KIMBERLY'S POVI turned back to him and pulled him in a tight hug."You have to let me go, Daniel, I can't stay here forever," I said moved to tears."Then stay for one more day. Just one more day and let's forget everything that's happening. Let me do all the things I wished to do with you." He said and I nodded because all I wanted to do was leave him smiling."Tell me all you want to do with me," I said and he led me to the Kitchen, took a note, and started to write.He wished to cook with me, braid my hair, he wished for us to tell stories late in the night, he wished for us to fly high in the sky together, he wished for us to sail on a boat, just the both of us, he wished to kiss me one more time, he wished to fall asleep in my arms.He continued to write but realized all those things would be hard to complete in one night then he stopped and looked at me."This would do." He said."How would we fly?" I asked and he smiled."There's a way." He said and we went to the back of the
DANIEL'S POVMy heart broke all over in a thousand pieces and I couldn't say a word. I knew it. I saw it coming. I already expected it but once more I was the one standing in the rain with no one to shield me from it. I knew Andre wouldn't let her go just like that, he would have let her know she was his Luna and that she had to stay.When she saw I couldn't form words, she spoke."I got back my memories. A friend helped me with it. I remember everything. I don't want you to be sad Daniel, I don't want it. I'm grateful for everything you've done for me and I wish I could repay you but nothing I do would ever be enough." She said and I nodded."You recall everything?" I asked and reasoned that could be the only explanation. She just would never stop loving Andre, there was no space for me in her heart.~I couldn't speak as memories of I and Kimberly flooded my mind. How had I come so far, how had I fallen in love with her to the point of no return? She was someone else's. How had I
KIMBERLY'S POVAndre kept on asking me what had happened but large tears formed in my eyes and dropped faster than rain.I remembered everything. Nothing was left out. I knew who I was, I knew who he was.Finally, I was back to him, Andre, I had loved and missed him for so long.I looked at him and touched his face, not believing he was right in front of me. Did he forgive me for leaving when he had told me not to? I couldn't believe I was back where I had always longed to be.He was the one I loved, Daniel was my friend. A friend I held dear to my heart. That was why I had been so confused without my memories. I and Daniel were thriving on friendly love. He knew I wouldn't return, and he had told me."Kimberly. Talk to me please." Andre said and I pulled him to me and hugged him tight."I loved you. All I wanted was for you to love me, I remember everything now, the ink from Bloom, it was so I could remember. Andre, I'm sorry for leaving, a lot of things happened, that was why I coul
KIMBERLY'S POV"What's the matter?" I heard Andre say and shook because I didn't even hear the door open nor did I expect him to walk in. "Um .. it's just ..." I said but didn't know how to explain it. He walked to me and took the bottle."This is no ordinary liquid." He said and looked at me."Bloom gave it to me, um, you might not know her.." I said but he raised his eyebrows."Bloom? Do not go near her. That witch's evil, she might be trying to get back at me with you because you might not know but I destroyed her Kingdom. So this is the danger she said you were bringing.""Who?" I asked and he smirked."Just an old lady." He replied and I stood up."She forgave you because I helped her get her necklace," I said and my eyes widened as he looked shocked."You helped her what??" He asked and I fell to the bed and stood immediately."We're friends," I said and he shook the ink bottle."I'm keeping this, get ready for the ball." He said and left the room. He wouldn't understand. There
ANDRE'S POVI smiled as I realized Kimberly wasn't going to leave the toilet till I left. It was amusing. I went to her mirror and looked in it, it was then I realized I hadn't been that happy in a long time when she left, there were so many horrible things I did to try to fill the hole that she had left in my heart and now that I looked back, those people didn't have to suffer. I left the room thinking of the previous night, it had been something I hadn't experienced in a long time. This put the smile back on my lips, she had become shier than before.As I walked to my quarters, I saw Maya hitting her head on my door, I raised a brow, she seemed to be drunk.I walked to her and stood behind her and it took a minute before she noticed me."Oh, it's Andre! My love!! The guy who broke my heart mercilessly and was able to wander around having a romance with another lady. " She said and placed her hands on my chest looking at me completely drunk."Is that why you've been at my door? You
KIMBERLY'S POV"What's that?" Andre asked and I looked back at him and shook my head but the moment I looked back, there was just an old dark tree with bent branches.I sighed. There was nothing. It was just my mind playing pranks on me. Then I saw the flowers, those pretty flowers that I had seen Andre give me in my memory. Then I looked beside me and my mind made it so vivid it was as though me of that day was staring at those flowers with me and Andre came to my side."The flowers you loved." He said and went deeper into the garden and plucked them for me.Then I remembered everything about that day, I had been feeling sad but happened to chance on the flowers and Andre happened to give it to me."Here." He said putting some in my hair and I looked at him. He made everything feel so real like I was really in love with him."Why are you staring at me?" He asked as he looked at me with a smile.I shook my head slowly."Just recalling something," I said.~We walked hand in hand to di
KIMBERLY'S POVI hadn't even made it past the Luna's quarters when I saw him coming through the double doors looking at me and I looked at all the maids stationed there who looked away.How did they do it? How did they send word to him without saying a word here?He walked to me and turned me around."I'm leaving!" I said but he pushed me back the way I came."Save the drama for the four walls. Not with the eyes and ears all around." He said in a low voice."Oh really is there a place in this Palace where you don't know what's going on?" I asked in anger but he pushed me inside my room and locked the door. "There isn't." He said briefly and looked at the things I had packed. "I thought we agreed on staying till you regained your memory." He said and I looked at him straight in the eye."I simply decided I didn't want to stay with a liar," I said and he closed his eyes and took a deep breath."You have to explain yourself well." He said leaning against the door."Just moments ago, I
ANDRE'S POVI didn't think she thought she was going to leave just like that.If only she knew how I almost went crazy just searching for her and waiting for her, she wouldn't say she was leaving and where was she going to that was so important than staying here at my Kingdom with me. She was my Luna."You are my Luna., I told her and she replied sharply."I am not your Luna." She said and it got me shocked."You just do not remember, you are mine., I said and she shook her head and walked away.I didn't want things to start this way, I had tried my best for things to go smoothly, I didn't want a fight, and I didn't want it to be like before where I wasn't able to say how I felt, I wanted this time to be different, I wanted a new beginning but what was she saying?Was she given to some other Alpha? What was the note she received?"Kimberly." I called and went after her. She turned and looked at me. "Let's do it this way. At least till your memory returns, do not leave." I said and s
KIMBERLY'S POVThe footsteps didn't stop and I immediately went to the curtains and pulled them apart giving the room a little light I saw a pretty lady who stopped and raised an eyebrow."Really Kimberly. I shouldn't have underestimated you, you sure have a lot of things up your sleeve. How could you imagine something so sweet as losing your memory? So you'd escape disobeying him? Running away?" She asked and I took in her words.I had disobeyed Andre, I had run away. It only made sense. I didn't love him. The person I loved was Daniel. Andre had been lying."I truly lost my memory. Who are you?" I asked and she laughed out loud."Who am I? That's quite hilarious. So you came for your child but forgot the person that was with you all the times you were pregnant when? Nice. Nice indeed. Why did you return? I thought you were living fine. Why did you suddenly return after all these years?" She asked me and I looked at her and knew she was one of those jealous people that always seemed
