Chapter 7
“He admired her beauty and thought to himself how beautiful she was so instead of entering his family house he approached her they became friends and secretly fell in love with each other. They kept their secret away from everyone in their respective families because they knew that if the secret should come out a war would break out”
“Their love was so strong that they risked everything to be together even at the expense of their own lives, when their relationship came out to the public the chief’s son was publicly executed right before her eyes, she watched as his head left his body and rolled over to her side. She was made to watch as his throat was being split by his father and his body twitched and fell to the ground”
” With tears in her eyes she vowed to bring revenge on everybody involved in the killing of her lover, she cried for days hoping to find a way to get revenge on everybody and she promised that no one would be spared. Unbeknownst to them she was carrying Apsi’s child in her womb”
“Finally at the first full moon after his death, she became a werewolf”
“Afterwards she killed everybody involved in the death of her lover, no life was spared, soon after she gave birth to her son who became the first Alpha”
All the while he was telling this story Stephanie wondered what it got to do with her, and she asked why he was telling her a werewolf story not like those are true.
Reality then dawned on her that he might be a werewolf. That’s why he was telling her that story to make her know about his real identity.
When she started experiencing those fears she urged him to continue and tell her everything he then said ” I am a descendant of Cecilia , I’m a werewolf too”
She became nervous and started fretting about the fact that werewolves were real; she only thought they were just fictional characters in movies.
Never in her life did she know she would meet and fall in love with a werewolf, the anger seeped in all over she felt betrayed that he lied to her, she felt used because she thought he only wanted to use her because she was human it angered her so much that she gave him a slap across his face and walked angrily out of the house, he tried running after her to talk to her , to explain to her that he actually fell in love with her but he had lost track of her by the time he went out.
By the time she got out her vision was already blurry with tears, she couldn’t breathe at a point she sat at the side of the road and balled her eyes out and screamed at the universe for playing games with her life.
She went all the way home feeling sad and angry with tears in her eyes she called her best friend who lived in Boston and narrated her whole experience to her. Her best friend consoled her and asked her to calm down so that he might have really loved her for him not to bite on her or leave a mark on her. He came out truthfully.
Suddenly she fell asleep after so much tears and had a dream where she was in a bush lying down and Audrey was beside her, in her front were three wolves looking over at her and speaking in a language she couldn’t yet understand, suddenly there was a cracking and those wolves changed to there’s recognisable figures, they were Audrey’s dead mom, his father and his twin brother who were all werewolves, at the sight of it she wakes up from sleep and wipes away tears she didn’t realize has already fallen from eyes.
She immediately knew that she needed answers and she wasn’t going to get such answers by crying her eyes out and moping like a baby. It then dawned on her that he was actually a werewolf because it seemed like he was obsessed with wolves as his room was filled with weird paintings and drawings of wolves.
She goes back to sleep, early in the morning she wakes up and goes to Audrey’s room, she finds him looking at a shadow of himself he has obviously been drinking after she left, her heart melted a bit for him, she couldn’t bear to look at him suffering and she suddenly started crying again.
She cleaned up the room and told him she needed an explanation on how it was her he chose to fall in love with. He then explained his whole life to her , his main purpose of coming to New York and how he hasn’t regretted his decision one bit.
She then told him about her dream the night before , she mentioned his mother and he became all sober.
He then told her that he had mates with her so now she’s a werewolf; that’s what the dream actually meant.
She screamed and walked out of the house and she stepped out of the house filled with all the rage and anger she had bottled up in the last few days. She didn’t know what to make of everything Audrey just told her. As she walked and shivered under the rain, the tears she had been holding up started rolling down her eyes, she felt that betrayal once more. She felt hurt, and used.
“How could he not tell her he was a werewolf?” She thought.
“Was he that scared of losing her?” She pondered further.
” What if he mentioned it and she flipped or felt scared just like she was doing now ”
All these were the thoughts that clouded her mind as she walked home.
She then concluded that she isn’t hurt about the fact that he is a werewolf but due to the lies and the fact he turned her into one without her permission.
She had always believed that honesty should be the foundation of any type of relationship at all, the fact that he kept his real identity from her showed that he didn’t trust her with it and he also lost the chance to be with her, at least that’s what she wanted to make herself believe.
She walked home drenched in her own tears, with swollen eyes and a distraught look. On getting home she found Audrey at her doorstep waiting for her.
She made sure he didn’t see her and quickly made a U-turn for Mirabel’s house, on getting there, Mirabel who happened to be her best friend was not around. She called her and she got the most annoying news of her life, her best friend who she was supposed to turn to for succor and encouragement had gone out on a date with a man.
“How typical of her,” She thought and laughed.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
“At least her situation wasn’t that terrible, Mirabel was still able to make her laugh even in her absence” She chuckled.
On seeing that there was no hope of seeing Mirabel that night and no hope of finding a place to lay her head that night, she resorted to the last option. SEARCH FOR LOVE
