This was the hugest event that I had ever been to. I thought the outside of the building was grand, but the interior was breathtaking. Everyone looked so regal and important. There was a live band playing beautifully and catered dinner. Even the waiters were wearing suits. The decor of the place was very classy and impressive. I did not feel like I belonged there. Yes, I was the future queen of the demon people but deep inside, I was still an omega. I was still a low-ranked werewolf. And that made me feel out of place. There were demons and werewolves everywhere that I looked. And the great thing about it was that nobody was alone. There was no awkwardness and everyone was sociable.“You good?” Zayn noticed my timidness and held my hand. His calloused hand wrapped around my hand and it shook away my nerves away. Reminded that Zayn was by my side, I now stood with my head held high. “Yeah, I am now.” I gave him a small warm smile. We walked side by side as we followed Ashton to wh

I blinked rapidly for a few seconds and the detective repeated her question. I rubbed my thumb over my nails as a way to distract myself from how anxious and nervous I was. “No, you promised me,” I spoke and she squinted her eyes as a way to show her confusion.“What?” She blurted out. “You promised me. You told me that if I answered your question about the October 28, 2020 picture, you might answer mine.” I reminded her, and she smiled. “I want to know how you got that picture.” She clicked her tongue and adjusted herself in the chair she was sitting in. “First of all, I did not promise you. But nevertheless, I am going to answer your question.” I smiled lopsidedly. “Thank you.” I had a very strong feeling that the person that handed in the picture was Jacob. It had to be. All of this was his work. He was taking revenge. “This picture…” Detective Stone held up the image. “And along with all the other pieces of evidence we have against you and your friends were handed in anonymou

I heard a small ringing noise in my ear and then voices. The voices would get louder for one second and just suddenly get very low. My breathing was leveled and my eyes were closed. I felt a dull pain in my throat and my body felt heavy. In a few seconds, I opened my eyes slowly and the light blinded my vision. It did not take long and my eyes adjusted to the light around me and I realized that I was in a room. I was not far from the window and the bed I was on was not too comfortable. “She’s awake,” I heard someone whisper, and I looked in the direction of the voice. I saw two ladies and from the way they were dressed, they looked like nurses. One of them had a small notepad in her hand and a pen in the other while the other nurse had some medical instruments in her hand. I think I knew what was in her hands but I forgot the names. The one with the notepad was darker in complexion and kept a warm smile on her face as she approached me. “Hi there. It’s great to see you awake.” He

Usually, when I had visitors, I would be taken to a room to meet them. Other inmates were not given that privilege, it was only given to me because of who I was: the future queen of the demon people. Jacob who was my visitor for the day should have been waiting for me in the room but it was different this time. He walked with me side by side until we reached my cell. The guards were less strict and that let me know that either Jacob had them wrapped around his finger or he had some solid relationship with the warden.“So what do you want to talk about?” He sat on my roommate's bed and I stood with my arms folded on my chest. “Zayn said that you wanted to talk to me urgently, and that got my attention.”“The deal.” I walked slowly and then sat on my bed. I watched a smirk grow on his face and I pursed my lips. “You see,” He chuckled. “I knew that you would come around. But sadly, the deal’s off the table.” He said in a matter-of-fact tone. “Wh–what?” I asked him as a nervous laugh

I stormed off to the door but was stopped by the guard. “Excuse me? I would like to leave,” I announced, but he ignored me. I tried to push past him but he would not budge. He stood by the doorway and had a hard look on his face. This made me very annoyed. “Lara, we’re not done talking.” I heard Zoe say, and I scoffed rudely. “No, I’m done listening to how you f*cked up my life and hate me. I’m done,” I replied without looking at her. I was still trying to leave, but the guard at the entrance was being such a d*ck! He kept standing in my way.I groaned in frustration and pulled on my hair. I turned back to Zoe and folded my arms on my chest. “What do you want, Zoe? What else do you want from me? Because I really can’t give you any more of myself, you have taken it all and dashed it to the floor.” I did not want to be in the same room as her right now.She frowned and then gestured for me to sit down. I clenched my jaw and did as she asked. “I know about the baby.” Of course, Zayn
