The She Wolf's Heart Concealed Identities
"When you greeted Mr. Surajo, what was his behaviour? How did he react?" Concern etched itself onto Anya's features as she probed Caleb about the nature of his interaction with the principal. Both of them were on their way to the school to do a little bit of searching and looking around. To see if they can find anything to connect the principal to the story Celeb had narrated during their dinner date. “He just responded, shook my hands and welcome me in the school. I did my possible best to keep myself from fidgeting or even starring at the item.” Caleb responded, carefully avoiding mentioning the object of their discussion. The driver, a man in his late fifties, must have been paying attention to their discussion as most cabbies do because he asked them a question. "Not to pry though, but, what are you going to school to do at this time of the day? It's almost 8 pm." Anya glanced at her wrist watch and maintained decorum, adding ones and two in her head. Caleb decided to play the
The She Wolf's Heart Primal Struggle
One of the most assertive parts of the human body is the heart. It has a way of choosing what it wants without caring what the consequences are. It gets worse when the heart is empowered by a superpower. That is the position Anya finds herself in. It’s another weekend and Anya, still smarting from last weekend’s rendezvous at the forest with the hunters, refused to meet up with the pack for the usual weekend meetings. She called Vincent to inform him that she won’t be present. She also informed her colleague, Caleb, to be on the same page with her. She had actually told Caleb half the truth when he asked her why she was avoiding the meeting. “I don’t want to face Vincent and his petty behaviour, plus, I am trying to avoid killing any hunter.” She replied, rolling her eyes, playfully. But what she hid from Caleb was that she was not ready to be among the pack that she struggles to connect to . Also, she was not prepared to face Vincent concerning their outing the other evening. B
The She Wolf's Heart Forbidden Love
You can always count on humans to have hate habits even when it is not necessary. You can always count on men to come up with an excuse for anything to hate anything that stands against what they believe. That hate plus the mayhem that comes with it doesn't stop it from existing. That is why ideas like a woman loving a woman which has been there since the dawn of time, since the days of the first werewolf have never stopped being an issue among werewolves, humans, vampires and other beings in the universe. Anya knew that the chemistry between her and Maya transcends the walls of a regular crush. She know she was in deep shit, but couldn't stop it. This had nothing to do with Optimus Primal. It was all her. She tried to pretend that Maya was just another girl, but whenever her mind remembered her, all she sees is the weapon formed against her that has prospered. She had no way of controlling what she felt for her. Maya on the other hand wasn't helping matters. She is drop-dead gorgeo
The She Wolf's Heart Even You, Caleb?
Anya spent the subsequent days of the weekend in her home, a heavy feeling of guilt weighing down on her heart. She had been avoiding Maya's calls and texts ever since that fateful Friday night. She knew she had left Maya's apartment in a hurry, but revealing her true identity as a werewolf was simply out of the question. Maya was understandably upset, but not enough to show up at Anya's doorstep. So she allowed the weekend to pass, hoping that the distance would somehow mend the situation.Monday was here and everyone was keeping their distance. Maya and Anya had a ritual of always meeting up in Anya's class to say hi before their student began to arrive. Today both had practically sneaked into the school premises trying their best to avoid running into each other every time they stepped out of their classrooms. However, it wasn't long before Caleb, noticed the tension between the two lovers. You can trust him to notice that his best lesbian couple were not at a corner, discussin
The She Wolf's Heart The Luna Saga
"You know the last full moon for the month is tonight, right?"That was Caleb on phone addressing Anya. He was trying to prevent Anya from going to Maya's house on a full moon night, even though it is the first day of the week. "Was it not meant to last for four days?" asked an irritated Anya. “Yes, the Luna cycle for the month ends today. For someone with our powers, transformation is inevitable." Caleb explained. Anya was quiet for some time. She was not angry, or sad, just quiet. "Are you there?" Came Caleb's voice. "Yes, I am." She sighed. "Honestly, I am tired of the whole thing. It wasn't this regular the previous years. Being a werewolf is just not what I planned to do with my life." She complained. "I am sorry,” Caleb apologised. His apology came from a place of ignorance. He remembered how him and his cousins would go out in Mongroove every night of full moon to hunt and kill werewolves, because they felt werewolves were having fun being monsters and terrorising the
The She Wolf's Heart The Jealous Alpha
It was a new day after the hunting that killed Annalise. Anya blames herself for having allowed Annalise to engage in a discussion with her. May be if she hadn't encouraged her, she wouldn't have been a victim. That single thought made her remember Emma. "Everything I touch I destroy," she said to herself. Her heart breaking apart as she lay on her couch, tears streaming down her face. “I had encouraged Emma to follow me for a hunt in the forests and she didn't come back. Now Annalise is gone because she wanted to talk with me.” As she lay there sobbing profusely, she didn't hear her phone ringing in her bedroom even though the rest of the house was silent. Maya had called her several times, but she didn't pick. She began calling her immediately Mr. Surajo instructed her to merge her class with that of Anya, because Anya won't be in school that day as she was sick. It was unlike Anya to take permission without telling her. Something was up and she needed to get to the root of it.
The She Wolf's Heart Trouble in Paradise
The day was a regular warm one in Longroove as it was in the life of Maya and her girlfriend. The duo were having a hearty argument by text about the best coffee and where it can be found. "I like home made coffee, period!""Nickel Cup has a flavour that you have not tasted, and when you do, you may sell your coffee maker," bragged Maya who grew up in Longroove watching Nickle Cup satisfy all her coffee cravings. She knew all their different flavours and what they taste like."That will never happen," Anya responded, adding an eye-rolling emoji. "Okay, what if I get you their best flavour, if you take and like it, I will seize your coffee maker for the next 3 weeks. Deal?""Jeez! That's far!""As intended." Maya sent in her responses with trouble making emoji. "Fine, deal. Wow me!" "Expect your coffee and your girl in 20 minutes." "Okay. And make sure to look edible too." Anya replied with a winking emoji. With that, Maya threw on some clothes and dashed off to Nickle Cup. She
The She Wolf's Heart Rage
At home, Anya had waited for quite some time and decided that Maya should give up on the coffee and come around. "You could let the coffee be and come around let's get started on the twenty rounds. Let's see how far we can go before it is night fall" she finished typing and hit the send button, but the message bounced back. She tried to call her via video call, but the button wasn't easy to tap on. That was when it dawned on her. She had been blocked. Anya laughed. She felt Maya was planning her. She decided to give her an audio call, but her call bounced back. She stood up from her bed and decided to get to her house. Rushing to her wardrobe, she found a pair of Denim and a t-shirt. She hurriedly threw them on and sprinted downstairs. She didn't know what to think. She didn't know if something was wrong with Maya or was she playing. Jamming her door behind her, she ran out of her porch to the main road where she flagged down a taxi. Getting to her place, Anya saw a gigantic blu

The She Wolf's Heart Anya
We walk into Maya's class and there she is seated, staring into an empty space. I try to read her mind, but can't. It feels like an endless void, the kind I felt the day I connected to Mr Rodriguez. Just dark! Perhaps, it was the distance between us, so I close the gap as fast as I can. Getting close to her, I squat down by her feet to directly look into her eyes, but her gaze is far away. It feels as if she is in a different world altogether. She doesn't say a word to either myself or Caleb, let alone acknowledge our presence. Out of desperation to make contact with her, I glance at the table and I take one of her hands into mine. Her usually soft and warm palm feels cold. Outside, the sun seems to be in a competition with humans to ascertain who is hotter. “So, why is her palm this cold?” I whisper to myself. If a pin had dropped on the floor, it will be like a bomb, that's how quiet the classroom is and it's unnerving. “What's up with her? Can you feel her?” Caleb’s voice rise
The She Wolf's Heart Caleb
Everything is as it should be. I know this because I am standing in front of Maya's class after the bell for school over rang. Her students, just like mine, have joined the ocean of bodies swimming towards the gate, others walking to the car park to join their parents and older siblings. The rest headed towards where the school bus is parked. Maya isn't in her class. She may have gone out to get something. All I have to do is wait. And so I wait. I sit down on one of the chairs in front of her table and automatically bring out my phone to while away the boredom threatening to descend on me in the absence of anyone to talk to and anything to do. I open my chat to text the good doctor as Anya likes to refer to him. Gius, that's his name, isn't a call person, texting is his style. He would spend an entire twenty-four hours thumbing the screen of his phone if he had a cleared-out schedule. Myself on the other hand never minded. As luck may have it, he is online, and so, we text. He wan
The She Wolf's Heart Maya
It is as if my legs couldn't carry me any longer. It felt as if I had been standing up for over an hour. My students were working on a science project that they had chosen in our previous lesson. I had come to the board to illustrate something when I turned towards the door because noise was coming from the corridor. Anya stood by my door staring at me. She was elegant. She never slouch, but now she was. Why is she looking at me that way? Is she scared of me or scared of what she's about to say? "Hey," I voiced out. "Hey yourself." She responded with a weak smile and walked in. I returned her smile with a nervous one. Watching her take her steps one after the other made me realise that she was being cautious. It didn't take me up to a minute to site the backpack she had on. It was puffy and looked heavy. About two steps away from me, she whispered, "I'm going home." I connected the dots and my gaze softened to sympathy. I wanted to take her hands into mine and pull her into a hu
The She Wolf's Heart Anya
"Why did you uncloak here with the kids…"The question died on my lips as I glanced around. Every pupil had their eyes fixed not on anything in particular. Their hands, body, stopped, as in frozen."What's wrong with the…"My questions died on my lips again as I looked at her. Birdie May happens to have one of the strangest powers. Did she just freeze my class? Did she pause time? "Yes, I paused time," her voice vibrated in my head. Yeah I forgot about that power, too. "I paused time within this environment. You have that power too. Any pure blood can do that with some training. No lamb should be able to break the barrier unless they have both legs into old religion." She explained casually like one explaining why cereal is for breakfast. I stared at her in a mixture of wonder and astonishment. Silence fell upon us as she fixed her gaze on me. As we gazed at each other, I found out that I couldn't read her mind, she was blocking me out on purpose. "I will be leaving town today.
The She Wolf's Heart Maya
Before anyone tells me that my days any where are numbered, I usually feel it. That was the same feeling I had as I walked into Mr. Surajo office and a scent waffed into my nose. I walked passed his secretary tapping into the strong girl part of me as I proceeded into his office and stood tall against Vincent who sat on plastic seat opposite the principal. I fought endlessly to subdue the urge to glance at him but I caved in. The disdain in his eyes almost floored me, but I had to keep my shield as high as possible as I focused my attention on the principal. "You sent for me?" I asked him as I turned fully towards him. "I did." His gaze was on everything and everyone else apart from me. Was he worried about firing me or about what he will find out if he questions me?The silence that descended on us was like a heavy blanket trying to squeeze life out of me, but I had to remain calm and clearheaded for the shots to come. I fixed my eyes on him while my mind travelled back and fo
The She Wolf's Heart Caleb
Today isn't my day. I have no desire to be where I am currently even though it is a Monday. Everything around me is irritating me. Merely hearing voices around riles me up. As if it isn't bad enough, suddenly my co-teachers want to say hi which I am not in the mood for. On top of all these, I have this unease, fear of something bad happening today. What’s up with you, dude? You don’t look happy today, why? Anya’s voice pulled me out of my head.I threw a glance her way and saw concern on her face.“Nothing, just not in the mood for being an adult today,” I responded, transferring my gaze to the window and my eyes fell on students playing. I sighed and held back the comment of Maya coming in to ask me the same question. Dear Universe, let today be one of those Mondays that she is too busy to go for a break, I wish. I had barely sighed when my eyes fell on the tall glass of wine called Maya as she made her way to Anya’s class. it is not all prayers that the universe answers after a
The She Wolf's Heart Anya
My aunt's voice cut through our little make-out. I practically held myself from openly whining about it. We withdrew our lips but our hands were still making contact with our body parts. None of us had disconnected our gaze. I still looked at Maya like she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She was, in a way. "Both of you need to get a room, Aunty B's voice came up again. "Meanwhile, Anya did you not bring spare clothes today?""I…" Maya beat me to a response. "You could help us arrange those quickly since you are good at slipping in between worlds and places." Maya quipped without disconnecting her gaze from me. "I should totally do that." Aunty B left her gaze on Maya with a smirk on her face. "You should," Maya's gaze finally left mine and fell on Aunty B. She disconnected her hand as well and stood in front of me. I was so scared of doing this after what had happened roughly an hour ago, but had to. I quickly peered at Aunt B's face. It wasn't filled with laissez
The She Wolf's Heart Maya
"Why would you think like that? Why would you just call off our relationship? Did it ever occur to you that I should have a say in this? She didn't say anything. She stared at me, her pupils bristling with unsheded tears. Just as the first began to drop down her cheek, she turned away. Was she feeling ashamed of herself? Why? "You won't understand, Maya. I think you should stay away from me. I am dangerous. I am a beast. I could kill you." She yelled and began to walk away. I began walking towards her and her step quickened. I was falling behind within seconds which means she was using her speed. This wasn't what I wanted her to feel. This wasn't what I expected from her after the incident. Thoughts of what she might to do herself clouded my mind forcing me to say the exact thing I hate saying to people. "Are you ashamed of me? Is that it?"I watched her stop abruptly. She covered the distance between us in seconds and stared me in the eyes. She had this stunned look in her fac
The She Wolf's Heart Caleb
The days I dreaded most came too fast. Birdie May has been out of her cloak for more than 24 hours. Anya has been busy. Her training began the next day after the evening her aunt crashed our little party. The training takes place at the other side of the forest where my pack hang out. Birdie May had cleared out trees using her power to create an open space for the training. Her first training with Anya instilled fear into me. Anya on the other hand is changing very fast. She is becoming stronger. She's getting faster in her superspeed. Her windseeking skill is developing very fast. It doesn't take her up to 10 seconds to shoot up into the sky. Maya has been here, observing, learning unlearning, discovering things she has always referred to as fairytales. I am somewhat marvelled at the courage which she summons to be here witnessing and experiencing everything. She has changed from the fearful and anxious girl to this strong backbone, giving Anya all the support she needs. What
