Mia POV
I went to sit next to Patrick. He takes my hand in his. He looks at me with amazement in his eyes.
"That was amazing. I see now why you wanted to be a singer. You should do everything in your power to make that dream a reality. You cannot hide that talent away. Everyone in the world needs to hear your voice." Patrick looks so sincere. I haven't sung for anyone since my parents died. I only ever sang for people close to me.
"Thank you, Patrick. Like I said I haven't sung in a really long time. I am a little rusty."
"If that was you being a little rusty. I wonder what you will sound like when you are in practice."
I hear someone cleaning his through and we looked up. I see a man in a suit standing there. He is smiling from ear to ear, almost looking like he has won the lottery.
"I am sorry to interrupt your evening. My name is Domonic. I am the owner of the Fletcher Pub. I was here on a date with my wife and heard you sing. I am looking for new talent for my pub. The band that used to play at my pub quit on me after the received a record deal. Will you be interested in a permanent position as a singer in my pub?"
" It would be a dream come true Dominic. Are you sure about this?"
"O I am sure. We are constantly looking for new talent and girl, you have talent. Why don't you come to the pub tomorrow? Let's say 8. My partner Scott will also be there. You can sing for him too and then we can talk about your contract. Will, that suit you?"
"That will suit me just fine thank you. I will see you at 8." Domonic gave me his business card. I kept looking between Domonic and the business card in astonishment.
Dominic walked away and back towards his table. I didn't know what to say. Could this be the big break I was looking for? I feel so giddy inside. I just want to stand up and dance, but I don't think it will be appropriate right now.
"Did that just happen?" I asked looking at Patrick.
"I guess it did. Maybe this means that you can finally follow your dream. This is a universal sign."
"I need to thank you for bringing me here. If you didn't I wouldn't have had this opportunity."
Patrick and I stayed for a few hours just listening to everyone that sung. I haven't had this much fun in a long time. We got to know each other quite a bit. Patrick is a really great guy. I surely hope that there will be a second date.
Patrick drove me home. There is a comfortable silence between us and I like it. When we stopped outside my house I saw Kai's car outside. My limbs froze at the prospect of seeing him again. This cannot be good. I said my goodbyes to Patrick and walked up to my porch. I took a deep breath before opening the door.
I found Kai in the livingroom just casually watching TV. Liam is lying on his lap fast asleep.
Kai sees me and picks up Liam and takes him to his room. He sits back down on the couch.
"Hey Kai. What are you doing here?" I asked and went to sit next to him on the couch.
"Ava had to go to the hospital. so I came here to look after Liam."
"Why did Ava go to the hospital? Is everything okay?"
"O yes. She is fine. She had to go to the hospital because her mother fell and broke her hip."
"Why didn't you call me? I would have come home so you can go with her to the hospital. I see this as an emergency." I can't believe him. Kai needs to go to Ava.
"I wanted to be here when you came home. I need to clear the air between us. I miss you Mia."
"I miss you too Kai, but Ava needs you more now. Her mother is in the hospital."
"I will go as soon as we sort this out. I am sorry about telling you I have feelings for you. I know that I placed you in a horrible position."
"Thank you, Kai. Now go to the hospital. We will talk about this on Sunday."
Kai looks at me pleadingly. I know we have to talk about this sooner or later.
"Okay fine. Let's talk. Yes, I am mad about you telling me about your feelings. I see Ava every day. I told you stuff over the years that I haven't told anyone. I told you what I want in a guy. And now that I think about you used all this information on me over the years. I thought you were my best friend."
"I am sorry Mia. I truly am. I just wanted a shot with you so badly. The last month I have been thinking and I think that the only reason that I wanted you so badly is that you didn't like me back. I finally realized that I love Ava and I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I wanted you to be the first to know. "
"I am happy for you. and I did want to share some things tonight. I finally got my big break. I have an interview at a pub tomorrow. I am going to sing."
"That is the best news I have ever heard. So we are cool now? Can we go back to before all of this happened?"
"Shure, but first can you please go to the hospital now. Ava needs you."
We both stood up and we hugged each other. I am glad that I have my best friend back.
Kai left our house. and I went to bed. That night I finally slept soundly. My life is finally falling into place.
Mia povI woke up with my alarm blaring next to me. I look at the clock and see that it is only 5 am. Why the hell did I set my alarm for that early? I turn around to fall back asleep when I remembered that I have an audition today.I jump up and a small happy dance. My dream might finally become a reality. I walk towards my closet. I look through my clothes but nothing pops out at me. I really need to make a great impression at this audition. I see a summer dress at the back of my closet.I take it out and realize it was the last dress my mother bought me before the accident. It is a black bohemian style summer dress with pink and red flowers all over it. It is elegant enough to wear to an audition but not overpowering enough to make me look old.It was like it was bought for my audition. I send up a quiet thank you to my mother. she always knew what I needed even before I knew it myself. I go in search of my black gladiator sandals tha
Mia PovI walk out of the pub after my audition and feel lighter than ever. I look up at the sky and smile."Mama, Papa. I made it. I am finally going to be a singer." When Domonic and Scott offered me the job I knew I was going to take it. The money only sweetened the deal.I walk towards my car and see an internet Cafe. No time like the present to draft those resignation letters." Hello. How may I help you? " The guy behind the counter asks me with a smile."I would like to use one of your computers to draft letters. I don't know how long I am going to be.""Right this way miss." The guy leads me towards one of the open computers. He logs on for me and moves out of the way for me to sit down.I opened up a word-document and decide to keep my resignation letter to the strip club short and professional. My letter to the restaurant was more emotional. Uncle Max the owner is like a father to me.
Grayson (1 year later)Tomorrow is our graduation. I cannot believe that it has already been a year. Today Anthony and I are spending the day packing since we are leaving after the graduation ceremony. I am finally going to see my family after a year. I can't believe how much I missed them. I even missed the twins and that is saying something. Those two are terrors together, but I still love them."So where are you going to start your search for your mate?" Anthony asks me while folding his clothes. Anthony told me that he will start his journey in the next couple of months since he wants to be there for the birth of his brother. Even if the child is his father's second wife son. He would also like to spend some time with his family. I however wanted to start my journey as soon as possible. I can do all the catching up as soon as I have my mate in my arms."I guess I am going to start with touring through Europe. That has been my dream for as long as I can remem
Grayson POVI see my parent standing next to the food table. I walk up to them. They haven't noticed me yet so I keep up to them and place my arms around my mother."I know that is you, Gray." I laugh at my mother. I finally see the people that my parents were talking to."Aunt Ann, Uncle Mayson. What are you doing here?" I walk around my mother and give them a hug. I haven't seen them in ages."Did you really think we will miss our godson's graduation?" Let me explain. Aunt Ann is my mother's best friend. Uncle Mayson is her husband. They have been at every major event in my life. Except for my high school graduation. They couldn't get some time off of work which suites me just fine since their daughter is obsessed with me."So how many girls swooned over my boy?" Aunt Ann asks me pinching my cheek. She always does that and I hate it."Aunt stop that. You know most of the girls here are next in line to be Alpha so they all have something to
Mia povI've been a singer at the fletcher pub for almost a year now. I must say that I enjoy living out the dream I had as a child. I heard a tip-off that there would be a recruiter coming sometime this month, so I have been singing my heart out every night.Tonight is one of my off nights, and I asked Domonic if I could spend it outside of the pub. Patrick and I are going on a picnic date with his son Jimmy and my brother Liam. we decided it is time for all of us to meet.I am so nervous. It feels like I have butterflies going haywire in my stomach. I knew this was going to happen eventually since Patrick and I are getting closer. I would like to believe that I have my soulmate.I walk towards Liam's room to see if he was finished getting ready."Liam, are you done? Patrick will be here at any moment.""Yes, sis. I am ready. Are you? Why are you looking so nervous?""I am nervous. I really want you guys to like each other. I l
Grayson povThe pilot announces our descend in Portugal, and I am happy that it is finally over. I don't know how am I going to do my traveling? I hate flying.I got through customs fairly quickly. I took a cab to the hotel that I booked. I decided that I am not going to use too much of my dad's money. If my dad knew that I booked into the cheapest hotel I could find, he will kill me.Ok, so technically, it is more like a hostel. I figured that if I were only going to stay in one place for a month, that I don't want to pay a fortune.When I phoned to book the lady I talked to told me that I will be sharing a room with 3 other people. Honestly, it doesn't bother me. It just gives me more opportunities to make friends, or even to find my mate.I walk into the hostel and to the reception. The receptionist gave me my room key and a brochure of all the amenities that they have to offer.I walk up to my room and open the door. I see tw
Grayson POVI woke up with my alarm blaring. Momentarily I couldn't comprehend where I am. I look around me and remember that I am in Portugal.I get up out of bed and walk towards my cupboard and take out my laptop. I walk to the desk that is next to my bed. I place my laptop on top of the desk. I sit down and connect to the wifi.I go through my e-mails to see if any of the universities has come back to me, but still nothing. I honestly think that I had to send in my applications earlier. I pack up my laptop once again and place it back in my cupboard. I take out my clothes and essentials and walk towards the shower.I took a shower and washed my hair. I quickly shave to make sure I look presentable to the outside world. I got dressed in a short and t-shirt, I walk towards the kitchen to see if there is some breakfast for me. I guess I should go shopping for food today if I don't want to completely finish Robbie and Courtney's food.On the table
Grayson PovFirst on my list is Ocean Aquarium. I hailed a cab and gave him the address.I walked up to the building. The Ocean Aquarium is made out of glass. I walk to the revolving doors and realize that I have to pay for tickets. Luckily I stopped and withdrew money yesterday.The tickets cost 25$. I surely hope that it is worth the money. I look up at the overhead signs and see that there are 4 big aquariums one for every ecosystem.The Atlantic, the artic, the pacific, and the Indian. I look closer and see that every ecosystem has all the elements that are in the sea.The first stop is the Atlantic. Every 10 meters, there is a sign with facts about the ocean. I walk up to the first sign. The sign says that the Atlantic is the second-largest ocean and covers 20% of the earth's surface.I walk to the second sign. It lists most of the fish that you can find in the Atlantic. It includes hake, crabs, lobsters, clams,
Mia POVGrayson and I have been dating for a couple of months. His mother Emelia has been showing me the ropes of being Luna.Ava and Kai wanted to be part of the pack and when they told me that I was overjoyed. Their ceremony was 2 weeks ago. They had a beautiful baby boy. Ava told me in a moment where we were alone that she wanted her son to be apart of a loving pack. I agree with her. When she told me about how her life was growing up, my heart broke for her."Happy thoughts Mia. Today is your wedding day." Ava said while laying down her bundle of joy. Grayson's mother and sister came in with the biggest smiles on their faces."Did they deliver the dresses?" Evie asked me. I pointed to her dress. I asked Ava and Evie to be my bridesmaids. Evie was so happy she started dress shopping immediately. I told them the dresses need to be light pink and that they can pick out their dresses themselves."Well, time to get ready." Emalia paid for the hairdr
Mia POVToday is the day that I finally say goodby to this hospital room. Grayson had said sorry to me over a million times. I do not blame him for anything that happened.When that woman came into the room the first time I realized that she is sick. She lived in her own world and there is nothing we could do about that.I have been in the hospital for 2 weeks. It was the most horrible time of my life. Grayson kept asking me about what happened while I was taken. There is nothing I could tell him. The only cruelty that she showed me is, not giving me anything to eat or drink.In these 2 weeks Ava, Kai, and Grayson have gotten to know each other. Ava absolutely loves Grayson.She told me all about the time after I went missing. She told me that Grayson only went to bed after I was found. That was sweet of him, but I didn't want him to get sick because of me.Grayson and I talked about moving to his hometown. There is a lot of information ther
Grayson POVMia has been missing for a week now. The police have gotten absolutely nowhere with the investigation. Until this morning.There was a tip from one of the packs, situated here in New-Zeeland. They saw a woman matching Aria's description, going into a house that is supposed to empty and on sale.It is a newly built housing complex and no one is supposed to have been moved in.We are currently sitting in the trees surrounding the building. We are all supernaturals since we make the least noise. I left Kai at the hospital. He doesn't even know that we got a lead. From what I have gathered the last week, is that Kai is actually Mia's best friend. They grew up together until he has to move away. I knew that if I told him that, he would want to come along.I see movement in the corner of my eye. Aria is coming out of the house with a plastic bag in her hands. She walked to the curb, and I took that as my chance to go to her. I told the
Mia POVI tried to open my eyes. My head feels a little fuzzy. I tried to wipe my eyes but realized that my hands were tied up.I open my eyes and start looking around. The room is dark. The few sun rays that are filtered through the tiny vents on the wall that helps me see just a tiny bit better.It looks like I am in the basement of some sort. The bed that I am on looks to be like the only furniture in the room. Then my eyes travel to a table at the other end of the room.The door was opened and the whole room was flooded in light. I tried to shield my eyes but I couldn't. Not that I could do anything with my hands and feet bounds together.I couldn't even talk. There was a sticky tape that was covering my mouth."So the bitch is awake. Good. Now we can talk. I am going to remove the tape from your mouth. If you scream, I will kill you." I just nod my head. I will do anything to walk out of here alive. She walks closer and rips off t
Stranger POVI have been following Grayson and that bitch around. I was hoping to get her alone for once. She is always either in the car or is with someone.This morning I nearly had my chance but Grayson came out of the cafe too quickly. I just follow them until they stopped at the hospital.I got my chance when she came out of the hospital alone. I made my way to her. I kept the injection close. There is no way that she is going to getaway.Mia POVI walk out of the hospital feeling better than I ever had. I am so happy that Grayson and my friends get along so well. When Grayson and I fully mate I want to ask him if he would accept Ava and Kai into his pack.There is no way that I will be able to make it without them. Maybe first I need to ask them if they would like to come and live with me at the pack. Where ever that is.I raise my hand to unlock my car, but I felt a sharp stab in my neck. I turn
Grayson POVI woke up fuller of life than ever before. I am happy that I finally found out what is going on with Mia. I guess I would have done the same if I was in her position.There is so much that I still have to do for her. I just wish that she will get back to me as soon as possible with her decision. I promised her that I will give her some space today. It is hard, but as I told her last night I will not pressure her into anything. She has a brother to think about.My phone rang and it was my mother. I picked up."Hello, mother. What can I do for you?""I just wanted to know if you got to talk to your mate yesterday?""Yes, mom. Don't worry. I got to see her last night. We resolved the issues she had.""That is good. I speak to you again later."My mom dropped the call. I look at my phone in confusion. This was the shortest conversation I have ever had with my mother. There was a strain in her voice that I recogniz
Mia POVGrayson and I talked way past midnight last night. I felt so ashamed about how I treated him.He told me that he will not push me. He only wants to be with me. He understands that I am human and will court me as any other human man would have.If I feel like I no longer want to be with him then he would leave me alone. No questions ask. I am currently laying in bed just thinking about the future.I didn't lie to Grayson when I said I felt drawn towards him. I still feel that. Now more than ever. I guess the more time we spend together the more I feel towards him. Maybe it is the mate bond or maybe it is me. I don't really know.The first sight of the sun just came flooding into my room. I stood up and started getting ready for the day ahead of me.I asked Grayson just for today. I need to get my thought in a row. I would love to have somebody just for me to love.20 minutes later I walked into Ava's room. She is bu
Stranger POVI followed Grayson to a hotel. I even got a room in the same hotel. I had to take a room on a different level, but that will not stop me.Once he entered his room I placed a camera so that I can see him coming in and out of his room. I made my way to my room and sat and waited for him.He didn't come out of his room for the whole night. I guess my poor baby was tired. I didn't want to sleep just in case he left and I didn't notice.There was the only movement again after 6 the next morning. I followed him and saw him getting into the cab. I caught the next cab and did a spell to get the cabbie to follow Grayson.When we stopped I saw Grayson going into a car rental company. I waited until he came out once again.I followed him to this quaint little cafe. It looked like a very small business. I didn't try to go in. He would surely know that I am following him if he saw me inside the cafe.I did, however, get out of t
Grayson POVI got the same room as the previous time. I actually just got lucky on that one. The previous couple that stayed there just checked out.I looked out of the window into the dark. The sun has already set. The light in the city has started to switch on. They look like fairies dancing in the sky.It is already too late to go to the pub. Mia would already be finishing up her show. So I will start bright at early tomorrow.My wolf is back and being extremely annoying. He just wants to go out and find Mia. Make her talk to us.I am trying to keep him under wraps, but it is seriously hard. He is persistent. I close my eyes and clear my head. I think it is time to shut my mind off. That way Ernouf can stop irritate me.I fell asleep soon after...................................My phone's alarm woke me up at 6 am. I got ready to make my way to the cafe. Mia will probably go back to the cafe now that I didn't go there
