After the greetings and introductions we're done, the counsellor had gone ahead to tell her some stories that made her eyes widen. She learnt from them and that was where she took the approach she used with her son.

"George is 32 years old. He’s never held a job for more than a few months. He’s broken multiple leases, which his parents had to pay for as co-signers.

George has been living at home for the past few years because he can’t find a job. Part of the problem is that he won’t leave the house to put in any job applications.

He looks online sometimes but never follows through by calling a potential employer.He sleeps until the early afternoon, lays on the couch, eats his parents’ food, and smokes cigarettes and marijuana all day.

George gets his parents ATM to spit out money by using their hope that he would get better. He says he needs gas money to get to a job interview that never materializes into employment.

    A pin drop silence immediately spread around the room. Everyone's breathing hitched. They all looked on in astonishment. Including Roberto and the boss.The boss was surprised and slightly worried because he hadn't reported the theft of his money. He turned around to look at the faces of his staff members to know if any of them had done so.He knew many of his staff members weren't on good terms with Lucia so they may have seized the opportunity to bring her down. To his surprise, they were also as shocked as he was at the turn of events.Luckily for him, Roberto snapped out of the spell they were all held in. He walked threateningly towards the police officers and placed a comforting hand on Lucia's back.The action seemed to break every spell that held Lucia herself as she snapped out if her daze. Every other person in the room were still standing with a glossy look in their eyes."Can you kindly repeat the command you issued when you burst in here earlier, officer?" Roberto asked a

    "What's the problem with him?" Lucia asked with a creased brow. She was watching him through the glass walls of the cafe and had seen the reckless way he had driven off."I should be asking you that. Why were you so harsh at him?" Jackson asked with his hands akimbo. He was glaring at his friend with undisguised annoyance.Unlike the others in the room, he didn't bother to hide the fact that he was offended at her. He saw her actions earlier on as being ungrateful."Are you asking me that question for real? Why shouldn't I be? Didn't you see the way he was running his hand over mine? Or have you suddenly gone blind to his flaws because he helped us?"She asked, staring at Jackson like he was vomit. She expected him to take her side without thinking about it for the second time. Either she was right or wrong, he shouldn't condemn her because he was her friend."Damn it Lucia! You know, that's the problem with you! What harm is there if he holds your hand? Isn't he only worried for you?

It had been on a day Jackson was being bullied by a group of boys on campus.They had just finished receiving a lecture on mathematics and how it affected the world when a young boy came towards Jackson and rudely requested his presence. Lucia had been displeased and didn't bother to hide it.The boy was known all around campus as the son of a very influential congressman whose father was capable of determining and controlling Presidents who sat in the White House.This made everyone scared of him and nobody wanted to be on his bad side. He often went about with a group of boys whose fathers were also influential and had money to splurge on booze and women.These guys were notorious for not having a permanent date. They were often seen with different girls which they dumped and discarded after having their fling with them.It turned out that her classmate whom she had seen in the dressing room of the clu

    Are you kidding me?" She asked, as his hand glided up to her chest, touching her nipples subtly."No, I'm damned Serious! You look so hot and delicious. I'd like to have all of you.""I'm sorry but I am not interested," she turned him down, gently pushing him away from her.He became upset and violent. "You know you can't turn me down. What is there to hide again?"He asked, digging his hand into her pussy.She went mad with fury and then in quick procession landed him two slaps across his cheek. It went red and her palm imprint could be seen from a distance."How dare you!" He roared and placed his hand on her neck, squeezing it like his life depended on it.She yelped out in pain as she struggled with him, kicking at him with all her might. He didn't bulge and her anger was building, ready to overflow.The outcome of that would be her changing into a Witch-Wolf and that was the very last thing she wanted.If that happened, she would be forced to go into hiding because everyone would

    "Damn it, woman! You speak too much! TELL ME WHO YOU ARE! I DON'T BLOODY CARE HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BOWED BEFORE YOU OR LICKED YOUR FEET!"Lucia roared in anger, raising her brows and getting completely worked up. She had now stood up from her bed and taken a defensive stance.She had gotten a hint at what direction the person or thing was standing so she stood facing the same direction while trying to see if she could see her or it clearly."The audacity! I am the queen.." She began to speak before she trailed off as Lucia interrupted her rudely. ."The queen of what?" Lucia asked, as hair began to grow on her body, while long claws popped out. The sounds of her bones cracking sounded in the quiet room as she was in the process of shifting."The queen of the witches! And who are you? A measly witch. Even your mother dare not speak to me in the manner in which you have spoken to me."She said and brought out a long staff. She was furious for not being respected by Lucia. She needed to

    Lucia concluded that she hadn't met cruel and vicious people. She had only heard of them. What was unfolding right before her was wickedness of the highest order."No, it was to get rid of your parents. We knew they were kind and patriotic... Their loyalty to Crimo was second to none and we played on that." The witch confessed nonchalantly." It wasn't only the zillion dollars we gave, we also assured him of safeguarding him and his family for the next four generations.The war broke out and we held a meeting with all the strong and valiant werewolves, vampires and witches in the kingdom! We cajoled them to join actively in the war. They agreed and...""Who are the ‘we' I don't get you?"Lucia asked, releasing her leash on her. She was mentally exhausted and broken by all she was hearing. Never in a million years would she believe her parents' deaths were orchestrated by their own kind.The head witch noticed it and became alert. This was her opportunity. The girl had been broken by t

    Roberto stared pensively at the back view of the girl he had just greeted who instead of replying to his greetings had told him to get lost. He fisted his hands in anger and walked to the hood of his car. .He leaned on his car's hood in a macho style and watched as the girl in his dreams walked away increasing the distance between their bodies and their hearts until she faded from his view.He shook his head as he found it amusing that she wassti giving him the cold shoulder in spite of all that he had done for her. She was supposed to be grateful but here she was, taking it the other way.He furrowed his brows as he thought of what to do to her in order to teach her a very sound lesson. He thought long and hard with his head down as he leaned on his car.He suddenly remembered something and smiled brightly as he raised his head up from its pensive position. He had to show that ungrateful lady what it means to get lost.He would unleash his terror on her this time and see where she w

    "That's enough.." Jackson cut her off before she could finish."You are embarrassing me!" He shrieked as his eyes darted around trying to check if anyone was listening to them."Oh, I'm sorry but am I not speaking the truth?" She asked with a devilish smile."Dick head!" He cussed and then ran away as fast as his legs could carry him.Lucia knew he was doing that to make her feel better. It worked for a while before the sad feelings overwhelmed her within seconds.They were soon at the club where they met but a few people. It was still morning, so not much was expected.Lucia and Jackson found their way into the huge space that served as the dance floor."Where is your manager?" She roared at the top of her voice, attracting the attention of the customers.A girl seated in front of one of the counters walked up to her."How may I help you?" She asked with a look full of disdain for Lucia. She noticed it but cared less what she felt."Why do you need the manager?" The girl asked, chewi

Golden shafts shooting upwards from the sun. The dream.It wasn't so much of a bad dream but it wasn't exactly a good one either, especially not at the time. It would complicate things because you see, the dream was about Jacob. An erotic sensual phantasm of her and her new boss. It had been a fairly long time since Aria had had a wet dream and so this bothered her. Flashes of pictures, memories of the dream flared all over eyes, burned through her mind as she struggled to keep him off her thoughts. She failed miserably. The details were still as clear as glass in her subdued memory. The images of his rugged handsome face leaning forward and planting a kiss on the base of her throat. Her whimpers as he carried on. She remembered digging her hand into his thick hair, begging for him to stop but never

    "The family hospital ma," her secretary responded aptly.They continued in silence till they reached the hospital. It was a big hospital of about twenty stories and was one of the best hospitals in the world. Its expertise is second to none with quality staff and equipments."Good morning Mrs. Avanti! I see you are here already!" Mr. Edwards greeted with a weak smile."Where's my son? Where's Roberto?" She asked with impatience."He's at the emergency ward."She froze and was baffled by what she heard."The emergency ward? Why would you put my son in the same ward with those people? Why? This is gross incompetent by you guys. You know how much I like only the best for my son," she ranted on and on, and all Mr. Edward did was laugh."Would you like to take a break ma?"

So, what prevented you from telling me about it untilit got to almost forty times.I thought I was your friend and friends stick through with each other through thick and thin." Lucia told him as she have him the stinky eye." I already blame myself for what happened to me. I don't need you to add to the guilt I'm feeling inside of me.

    After the meeting, he met me in the woods behind the pack territory and forced me down. I tried all in my power to resist him and succeeded. Within the twinkling of an eye, he shifted into his wolf and held me against a tree.I was trapped and scared shit out of my wits. His wolf was way bigger and more fearless than mine but not even half the size of yours. It growled at me and almost sunk it's fangs into my neck as I cowered in fear.He changed back into his physical appearance and told me he had control over me.He further told me that the punishment for disobeying any of the pack seniors was death first by killing your wolf by tieing it down with silver chains before you were shot dead by a silver bullet.Trust me,no one wants to experience that fate no matter how strong you were. I could only whimper pitifully as he roughly removed my clothes and forced his way in.I hated myself for what was happening time. I couldn't blame anyone but myself.
