Sleepover?

Aubrey's POV " Hey, babe" Xander pecked me on my forehead immediately I opened the door the next day. We didn't have lectures so I was lounging at home. What are you doing here? " Hi," I replied and bolted the door. He placed his backpack on the table and sighed as he plopped on the sofa." I didn't see you today. How are you doing?" " Fine." " It has been long since we hung out together. There's this new restaurant that I want us to try. Are you up for it?" He inquired. If I say no, chances are that he would pick a fight and make a fuss about it. "Now?" It was almost seven p.m. " Yes. Are you busy? I know you're not." He answered. I've been indoors since morning, so I guess I needed to stretch my legs. " Just give me some minutes to change," I replied, and he nodded. I disappeared into my room and discovered that I didn't know where we were going. " Do I need to dress fancy?!" I shouted. "Kinda." He said, I wore a navy blue dress and paired it with a pair of teardrop earr

Two Steps Backward

Aubrey's POV I backtracked, "Wait, what?" I asked. He was behaving weirdly. Why was he looking around like someone was going to burst in at any minute?" Come over to my house." He repeated, and I took a step back. What was he doing? If I followed him home, I knew what was going to happen. " I can't." He sighed, " This is not the time to be stubborn." He said. I grew annoyed, " Well, if you had given me a reason why I should follow you, I would be more inclined to listen to you."I replied. He raked his hands through his hair. " Don't make this any more difficult than this. It's simple; this place is unsafe for you."I rolled my eyes, and went to the sofa to sit. He sure knew how to ruin beautiful moments. " I am not going anywhere." I crossed a leg over the other. " Then you leave me with no choice then." He muttered and picked me up, like I weighed nothing. " Put. Me. Down." I muttered through gritted teeth, yet he continued walking to the door. " What if someone sees us li

One of a kind

Knight's POV "I need some guards to resume tomorrow." I told Josh over the phone. " Are you in danger?" He replied. " Not really, I smelt some rats last night and I have to take care of them." I replied with one hand on the phone and another on the window blinds. " This is serious. I'll send five guards tomorrow. You have to make provision for their stay." He said. " Done, do you have any news for me?" I asked. He sighed, and I knew that he was about to tell me a bad news." There was an attack last night at the mall. A sudden fire that couldn't be traced. It took a while before we could douse the fire." " The arsonists? Were there casualties?" " We didn't catch anyone. No, it was late at night, the patrol wolves didn't see anyone." He replied and I cocked my head. This was an attack. " I'll be there in two days." I replied, and we hung up. " Where are you going to?" Aubrey asked, and I turned. " Its rude to eavesdrop." I replied and she folded her arms over her body. Her

Job Hunting

Aubrey's POV The Next Day, I avoided Mr. Knight like a plague. After trying to get the reason I was a bit sad out of me, he finally got the hint to leave me alone. When he brought me home this morning, we barely spoke a word to each other. I needed space to quell the jealousy that threatened to consume my mind. He didn't belong to me, yet I was always upset at the mention of another woman in his life. Hearing him asking someone to care for a lady made me sick to the stomach. I knew that it wasn't Ellie because he would have called her name, and there and then I took my decision. I walked into class that morning with a banging headache. Lectures were supper to begin at ten a.m, " Hey, babe. it's been long I saw you!" Alexis exclaimed as she grinned from ear to ear when I got to our seat.I rolled my eyes, " Hmm, one would think that I went away for a very long time." I responded an me she chuckled. "What can I say? I've missed you a lot. You weren't replying your messages." She s

Eerie

Aubrey's POV " Miss....?" " Aubrey." I replied, after sitting on the chair in his office. " What do you do? Why do you need this job?" He asked, while adjusting his glasses on his nose. I sat up straighter. " I am a student who needs financial support." I replied, it was the half truth, but no one needed to know. " How do you plan to juggle between school work and your job? Being a waitress can be tasking at times. Moreover, the salary can't pay your bills." He said. "I will make do with what I get." I replied. That was my only option because calling my sister was out of the equation." You seem determined, I like you. You can resume on Monday." He said, and I stared at him. Monday was a week away. Did he have the intention not to employ me?" Thank you sir." I replied and walked out of his office, still a bit surprised that he didn't ask for any credentials. I ordered food and took a cab home.My phone rang when I wanted to lay on my bed. Who was out for my peace? " Hey, Matt.

Trouble Is Coming

Knight's POV "Good morning, Dad," Ellie said as she descended downstairs. She yawned slightly."Hey, pumpkin. How are you doing?" I replied as she approached me. She planted a kiss on my cheek while smiling softly. She reminded me of her mother. I shook my head to get rid of the emotions that attempted to resurface after burying them." I'm good, just a bit tired. Where is Uncle Josh?" She asked, as she sat beside me on the sofa, and let out a sigh. We didn't get to sleep early yesterday and we were still awake very early. Sometimes, I wished that I could change her life and also her experience life as a normal teenager. It would have been understandable if she were a male. " He went for a run," I replied and placed my laptop on my lap. I had a meeting with the board of directors in my company which was slated for 8 a.m. "Did you get some sleep last night?" She asked and I shook my head. She gave me a concerned gaze. " And you will be busy throughout today." She added." Yeah," I r

Sad News

Aubrey's POV The next few weeks had been hell without hearing from Mr. Knight, and I didn't know that I was being cranky until Alexis called me out. " Why do you look like a cat pissed in your tea?" She attacked me after school one afternoon. " Really, now?" I replied and zipped my bag shut, before standing, and looking at carrying my bottle of water. " Yeah, this has gone on for too long. What's actually going on?" She asked, as we went out of the door, " And don't give your usual excuse of being fine, which we both know is total bullshit."She said. " Wow, it's good to know that you have already concluded. Pray tell me what you think is wrong with me." I replied harshly. Then she waved her hand, " You see this bitch face you are carrying about, it doesn't suit you. Even Xander a complaining about it." I rolled my eyes, " It's good to know that the both of you have been gossiping about me." I replied sarcastically. Alexis gave me a pointed look, " Are you being serious right no

Seeds of Doubts

Aubrey's POV My decision to avoid Mr. Knight had to take the backseat because of Ellie's condition as my heart raced with fear and dread. Thinking of the possibilities that came with Ellie being in a coma, what it would mean to Mr. Knight. If I, who was just a friend could feel so shattered, I could imagine how he felt. It must be so heartbreaking watching his child fighting for her life, without a promise of return. With that thought, I texted my boss and lied that my mother had a stroke, so I wouldn't be able to come to work. My movement was frantic as I stuffed some clothes into a duffel bag. Skipping classes for a few days wouldn't hurt. I made a mental reminder to inform Alexis of my absence for a few days. Arriving at the hospital seemed harder than I thought as the universe wanted to frustrate my efforts. There was heavy traffic on the highway. I was fidgeting so badly that the cab driver had to ask me what was wrong with me. " I'm fine." I lied and hid my shaky fingers be

The Revelation (I)

Aubrey's POV A little groan woke me up at midnight and I opened my eyes. Mr. Knight was rubbing his neck slowly, as his eyes closed in pain. He must have cramps from sitting in that position for long. The room was dimly lit and I reached for my phone beside me. Three-thirty four a.m. The bedsheets creased when I rose, and he turned. "You are awake." He said and watched me approach him.I nodded and pretended to yawn. This was a method to check my breath. I wouldn't want a situation whereby I would kill someone's father with morning breath. It was still fresh. " Yeah." He returned to typing away on his laptop, " You look tired." I commented and he looked up at me. " Yeah." He replied. I noticed a bandage wrapped around his fist and my eyes widened in alarm. "Did you get into a fight?" I inquired.He looked at me before taking a glance at his hand, "Oh, this. I scraped my hand." He replied. His excuse didn't sound genuine enough, " Are you sure about that?" I asked. He shrugged

Abduction

Aubrey's POV A damp cloth hit my forehead and I woke up. The events of last night came crashing down on me. "How are you feeling?" Mr. Knight asked me. I was dumbfounded at the turnout of last night's events. I found it hard to move past it. " Get away from me," I said.A hurtful look appeared on his face briefly before he moved back. I rose and sat on the bed. I had to leave this place immediately. If he was a werewolf, then Ellie must be one too right? I sighed. " What is Ellie?" I asked.His expression confirmed my thoughts, " Don't bother answering that question. Where is Ellie?" I asked when I noticed that the bed was empty. " She's been transferred to the ICU." He replied and looked at me when I attempted to rise. He looked like he wanted to come closer to me but stopped himself. " You are burning up." He replied. " I'm leaving," I replied and I groaned in pain when I rose from the bed. " You are not going out there." I shot him a dangerous look. Was he kidding? " Am I a p
