Steve's eyes widened in shock at this revelation. Even his ears stood out at the sound of what she said, he couldn't believe his ears.

“You've been what?” He asked after he finally found his voice, but still shocked at what he had just heard.

“You mean you were banished from your pack?” He asked again as if he didn't hear her the first time.

Veronica could only reply by just nodding her head in sadness as she wiped a tear off her right cheek.

“But why? How? Why? What was the reason? What was your offence? What did you do?” He kept asking her, giving almost no room for an answer and so she remained quiet.

He began to pace as he thought about everything she could have possibly been through.

“Wait, I'm trying to understand. So where were you going to? I mean, after leaving your pack, where were you headed?” He stopped pacing and suddenly asked her.

“Nowhere exactly.” She replied, wiping her tears and blowing out her blocked nose.

“Nowhere? So you were just walking around the forest witho

    After Veronica’s outburst, she remained quiet while Steve just remained quiet because he felt like whatever he said at that moment could trigger her anger more, so he decided to stay by her side and allow her to cry it all out.After noticing that she was a bit calm, he decided to speak to her, and so he cleared his throat before he began to talk.“I'm so sorry for how I reacted and for every word that I said. I'm genuinely sorry. It was because I didn't know better and I jumped into conclusion without fully understanding your situation. I sincerely apologize.” He apologized and waited for her response but instead of saying anything, she only nodded in acceptance and so he started speaking again.“You know,” he began, “I won't say that I understand exactly how you feel but I will still say what I said earlier: please don't think that you're cursed. Don't even say you are cursed. You're a beautiful young lady with a bright future ahead of you, If you'll only just see it and walk in it

    “Son, baby. Are you okay?” Beta Lily quickly asked him.She began to rub her hand gently on his body to gradually wake him from his slumber but his eyes were still totally shut as he kept struggling in his sleep and muttering Veronica's name.His parents, Beta Lily, most especially, soon began to panic because the more she tried to wake him up, the more he just kept struggling and soon began to cry.“Richard, call the doctor immediately!” She yelled and he immediately stormed out to call the doctor.Shortly after, he rushed in with a nurse and the doctor, who quickly instructed Scott's parents to step away from Scott as he started to examine the boy.He checked his vitals and with a straight face, looked up to Scott's parents.“What is it, Doctor? Why do you look so serious? Is something terribly wrong with our son?” Beta Lily asked the doctor.“Of course not. He is perfectly fine.” He replied.“What do you mean by that? He is obviously not looking fine to me. Can't you see how he is

    That very night, Steve sneaked Veronica into the pack without being caught, but there was a problem on their way to the pack- Veronica got too tired and because she had been in so much pain for a long time, she became unconscious just miles before they arrived at Fire Dawn Pack.Afraid and confused, he was torn between two options: whether to keep going with her or to abandon her somewhere.Abandoning her was dangerous but taking her like that to the pack was equally dangerous. He had to stop for a moment to think his decision through. He laid her on the bare ground and began to do some fast but deep thinking.If he was caught with an unconscious stranger in his arms, he'd risk being thrown into jail but if he leaves her there, she might be attacked and killed.“Damn!” He lamented, kicking the dust.After a long moment of pacing and thinking hard about it, he placed his hand on the side of her neck and her wrist and felt what seemed like a pulse. “She's still alive.” He gasped and fi

    Scott's little eyes opened gradually to realize that he was still in the hospital. His eyes scanned the room and saw his mum beside him, sitting on a chair.“Mum, good morning.” He greeted her, yawning.“Son, you're awake? Hope you slept well?” His mum said with a smile, rubbing his little cheeks.“I think I did.” He answered. “I don't see dad around, where is he? Did he go somewhere?” He asked her as he sat up with her help.“Yes, he went to see the doctor.” She replied.“Oh, okay.” He said as he nodded.“How do you feel today? Do you feel okay? Do you feel any pain anywhere?” She asked him, concerned.“Mum, I'm fine.” He replied with a slight smile but she immediately noticed that something wasn't right.“Are you sure? You look like you have something on your mind.” She stated and he looked away from her.“You do, don't you?” She asked him again. She gently held his hand in hers as she spoke to him again, calmly, “You know you can tell us anything, right? If there's anything on you

    “What the hell do you think you're doing? Why would you barge into my room like that and why did you scream like that? Do you want to call the attention of people to this place?” Steve yelled at Megan, who didn't even care about what he was saying.He then turned to Veronica to see if the noise had woken her up but she was still lying motionless on the bed.“I should be the one asking you what you think you're doing, bringing a female into your house.” Megan snapped at him.“I don't think me bringing anybody into my house at any point in time is any of your business, Megan.” He replied harshly and she hissed.“Who is she? She doesn't look familiar and I don't think I have seen her anywhere in this pack before now. So, who is she?” Megan asked again, not caring what he had just said, raising her voice this time.“‘Shhhhhh! Can you stop yelling?” He moved close and tried to shush her, and looked over at Veronica once again.“Don't tell me what to do or not to do! I asked you a simple qu

    The warriors who were sent to search for Veronica finally arrived in the forest after walking a very long journey due to the distance. They soon got to the exact spot where they found Scott and stopped there.“This was the exact point where we found the kid, right?” The leader asked them.“Yes, Leader.” They chorused in response.“He was coming from that direction,” one of the warriors, who was the first one to sight Scott from afar before he fell, pointed towards the direction where he was running from.“Are you sure about this?” The leader asked him.“Yes, Leader. I'm very sure. I'm positive.” He replied, confidently.“Okay, in that case, we'll head in that direction too.” He told them and they waited for more information.They had left the pack immediately without complete information on who or what they were searching for. It was only their leader, who they sometimes called ‘Cap’ or ‘Captain Jake’, who had the main details. He only summoned a few of them and they followed.“Get re

    “What can be done?” Alpha Marcus asked Captain Jake.“I'm afraid nothing can be done in this case because no clue or trail was left behind. It was a perfect work.” Captain Jake replied. “For all we know, she could have been taken as a slave to another pack.”“That's rather unfortunate.” He said, shaking his head in pity for Veronica.“You can leave. Thank you for your efforts.” He said to Jake, who bowed and left.“I'm really trying to understand what a young girl like her would be doing in that part of the forest. It's dangerous for a lone warrior, not to talk of a young female.” He said, worried for her.“We can't be so sure about these things, what if she got lost just like Scott did?” Beta Richard asked, shrugging.“Or what if she has finally found her way back to her pack? Is that option not on the table?” Alpha Marcus asked as he thought about the possibility of Veronica finding her way back to her pack.“Hmmmmm, I highly doubt that though.” Beta Richard sighed. “We don't know w

    ~STEVE’S HOUSE~As Veronica slowly opened her eyes, she thought to herself , “where am I?”The room seemed to spin around her for a moment, but she closed her eyes immediately and took a few slow, deep breaths. When she opened them again, the dizziness had passed, and the first thing that hit her was the complete silence that enveloped the room for like a split second. Aside from the voices she could hear far away in the distance, the room was extremely quiet.Despite the fact that it was already morning, it was hard for her to tell because she didn't know what time it was, neither did she know how long she had been out for. Also, the room was dark because all the curtains were down. This, Steve did the previous night to prevent any prying eyes from seeing her.She laid there for a moment, trying to remember how she got there. Although her memories were hazy, she could vaguely recall passing out the day before in the arms of a certain man. She remembered how he carried her gently. The

    The air was heavy with tension as Elder Raymond stormed in, his face twisted in grief and rage. His eyes, red-rimmed from lack of sleep, scanned the room until they landed on Veronica, who now stood frozen, her hands clasped together in front of her. At the sound of Elder Raymond’s angry voice, she had sprung to her feet.The moment he saw her, Elder Raymond charged at her, his heavy boots echoing off the marble floor. “You!” He bellowed, his voice, sounding like thunder. “You killed my son!”Veronica shook her head vigorously as he charged at her.Beta Richard quickly stepped forward, shielding Veronica from Elder Raymond’s attack. The guards also moved swiftly to restrain Elder Raymond, but he struggled against them, his face purpling with rage.Seeing what was going on, Megan and the rest of their friends scurried off to a corner.Alpha Marcus sprung up from his throne, his voice authoritative as he spoke. “Elder Raymond! What is going on? What is the meaning of all this?!” Elde

    As soon as the warrior guards got back to the pack, Veronica was dragged before the Alpha in the court.“We found her, Alpha.” Captain Jake announced, pushing Veronica forward. She missed her steps and fell to the ground in front of Alpha Marcus, and Beta Richard.“Has she confessed yet?” Alpha Marcus asked, and Jake shook his head.“No, Alpha. She has not confessed. She claims she is innocent.”“Is that so?” He inquired, and Jake nodded affirmatively.Alpha Marcus’ eyes fell on Veronica, who was still on the floor, her face buried in her hands as she cried silently.“So, you have refused to confess after everything?” He asked her, his eyes blazing with fury.“I… I’m innocent.” She managed to say, her voice, cracked from screaming and crying all the way to the pack from her hiding place.Right then, Steve, Megan, Sam, Linda, Madeline and the others walked in.“Thank goodness. They've found her.” Sam said out loud as soon as he saw Veronica on the floor. “I hope she tells the world wha

    All hands on deck. The search began, and the warrior guards searched the entire pack, but Veronica was nowhere to be found.Seeing as she was not found anywhere in the pack, they proceeded to search outside the pack, and headed for the forest, combing every single place the soles of their feet stepped.They were so determined to find her because they believed that she was responsible for Trey’s death just like Sam told the Alpha.“Leave no stone unturned. Search the perimeters. Search every single place. Every nook and cranny.” Captain Jake yelled as they intensified their search in the forest.They searched and searched for hours, until it was very late at night, yet they didn't find anyone, or anything that could serve as a pointer to where Veronica was.“Cap, don't you think we should go back? It's already dark. We can come back by morning tomorrow.” One of the warriors suggested, but Jake glared at him.“Do you think this is a child's play? Are we just searching because we feel li

    They finally arrived at the Alpha's palace, and Beta Richard led the way, while they followed behind him.As they made their way in, silence filled the air, the only sound heard was their footsteps on the floor.“I can't believe I'm back here again. I still haven't gotten over what happened while I was here last time.” Megan whispered to Steve, who didn't say a word to her.“Anytime I think about it, the only thing I can remember is the punishment we were given months ago.” She whispered again, but he still didn't say anything in response.She continued to complain, regardless. “Ughhh! I can't believe we actually did community service for three whole months. It was such a harrowing experience for-”“Can you just keep quiet, Megan. Now is not the time for random talks and this is definitely not the place!” He interrupted her, as he whispered through gritted teeth. “What is wrong with you? Dang!” He hissed.She rolled her eyes, and remained quiet till they finally got into the Alpha's

    In just a short moment, the ambulance arrived at Veronica’s house, and Trey's body was immediately observed keenly, and he was soon confirmed dead.Seeing that it was Trey, the head paramedic, whose name was Dan, stared in shock. He then sighed. “Take him into the ambulance. We might have to find out the cause of his death.” He immediately instructed the other paramedics to carry Trey's body out of the house.“I’m quite baffled here. How did this happen? What really happened?” Dan asked Steve and the other guests, including Megan, who looked disturbed.“We have no idea. We just came into the room and met him like this.” Steve replied, honestly.“Is… is he really dead?” Linda asked, her voice shaking.Dan sighed sadly. “Unfortunately, Yes.”“Oh no!” They all exclaimed, with defeated expressions.They had actually hoped that they were wrong about it all along, but with the confirmation of the paramedics, they soon knew that their worst fear had actually happened.“Are you guys sure tha

    Seeing Trey’s lifeless body in the pool of his own blood, Megan retched, and swiftly rushed into the bathroom and began to throw up.“What could have happened? Who could have done this?” Steve thought to himself as he observed Trey’s motionless body.Truly, he didn't like Trey because of what happened between them in the past, but never in a million years did he imagine that Trey would be in such a state at that point in time.Megan came back into the room, and they remained transfixed in one spot for a while, before someone finally spoke up.“Who did this?” One of the guests, Madeline, asked, sounding completely terrified.“Is he still breathing?” Another person, Linda asked, her voice shaking.“Does he look like he is?” Someone else, Sam, replied, coldly.Linda’s eyes widened. “What!?”“You can't be so sure. Maybe he is just unconscious.” She said again, trying hard not to believe what Sam said.“I think Sam might be right. He doesn't look like he is breathing.” Luke said, in suppor

    After walking and reminiscing on past events for a while, Steve and Megan finally headed back to Veronica's house, but when they got outside the house, they noticed that the guests were a lot less than before they left the house earlier.“Seems almost everyone has gone.” Steve stated, and Megan nodded in agreement.“Yes, it seems so. I'm sure they had so much fun.” She replied, looking around.“Yeah, that's true.” Steve nodded in support.“Hi Uncle Steve.” Scott suddenly shouted, jumping out from nowhere, startling them.“Oh my, you scared me.” Megan exclaimed, and Steve smiled.“Did I?” Scott asked as he excitedly jumped into Steve's arms.“Yes, you did.” Megan replied, frowning.“Did you go somewhere?” He asked, “I have been looking everywhere for you guys.”“Oh, yes. We took a walk.” Steve answered with a smile.“Really?” Scott asked, staring at Steve and Megan.“Yes. We had some things to talk about.” Steve explained, still smiling.“Oh, so where's Vee?” Scott asked, seeing as Ver

    Seeing that it was indeed Trey, Veronica fearfully took a few steps backwards, away from him.Noticing her reaction, he knew that she possibly knew him, and so he got up from the bed.“Oh, you know me already?” He asked her, his tone, menacing.“What makes you think so?” Veronica asked him. Her heart, beating fast, not sure of what she should have said. “I don't know you.” She blurted out.“Oh really?” He asked mockingly, taking a step towards her.“Yes.” She lied, slowly retreating.He laughed hysterically. “Why does your expression say otherwise?” He queried her. “You don't look like you're seeing me for the first time.” He stated the obvious, making her more uncomfortable.“That's not true.” Veronica insisted, and he laughed again.“You’re saying something, but your actions say otherwise.” He said, “What do you mean?” She asked him and instead of responding, he took a couple of steps forward, making her take steps backwards instinctively.“There you go.” He said, proving his point,

    TWO WEEKS LATERAs the cock crowed, Veronica's eyes slowly opened, but she immediately shut her eyes because of the little ray of sunlight, shining through the slight opening in the curtains, right into her eyes.She adjusted her sleeping position, and remained still on her bed for a short moment. She opened her eyes again, and gently rubbed her heavy eyes. She checked the time and it was a few minutes before 7am.Her eyes drifted away from the clock to the ceiling and she kept staring at the ceiling as the thought of going back to sleep filled her mind.She yawned loudly, and stretched her body.“Today, I don't feel like doing anything. I just want to sleep in.” She said to herself, as she pulled her duvet over her head, and went back to sleep.Just a few minutes later, her phone chimed, but she was too tired to pick it up to check who she got a message from.She had stayed up late the previous night because she had a lot on her mind. She didn't know why but memories of her life in h
