Natalie Sanders woke up the following day, feeling more like shit than usual. The eighteen year old even contemplated skipping college— but heaven knew her mum, Lynn was going to make a very big deal out of it.
She couldn’t believe what had happened last night!
Tristan Hemmingway had stood her up.
The girl had been ready by six thirty, dressed to perfection, but still managing to keep the entire ensemble casual. She had been excited—thrilled about the prospects the young night could bring. Hell, not even her parents’ constant teasing had ruined her joyous mood.
But Tristan never showed up to pick her up… he didn’t even call to explain the reason why he hadn’t.
The funny thing was that, she hadn’t even asked for the date.
He was the one who had fucking volunteered, so didn’t he think it prudent to get in touch if something had come up?
To be honest, at first, Natalie had b
Chapter 10- The Two Wolves Natalie didn’t think. She just wrapped the towel around her body and fled. She didn’t know what to think— hell, she wasn’t even thinking, because if she was, she would have known that going out of the house in just a towel was definitely not one of her most brightest ideas, but who could blame the girl really? She was stuck between thinking someone had broken into their house again, or that the evil force that was haunting them was back again, and she honestly didn’t know which of the stories sounded much better or even more plausible… but it was obvious to her in that moment that either way, her life was very much in danger and that the lesser time she spent being in the house, the better for her, And so she had ran. She didn’t even know where she was going, being blinded by the tears that just wouldn’t stop falling, and she didn’t take her phone too, so she had nothing to use to call her p
Chapter 11- The CompulsionTristan cursed sharply.He didn’t know what had happened to cause him to shift back into human form so suddenly. Something like that had never happened to him or anyone he knew, so he was a little worried.He looked down at the girl looking so peaceful in his bed, and his heart warmed at the sight.This was where she belonged.He chided his subconscious for thinking such wild— such dangerous thoughts. No, Natalie belonged in her normal, human world, and he had stirred it up too much already. At this point, he wanted her to recover, and then— only then will he be on his merry way.There was a quick knock at his door, snapping him out of his musings. “Come in,” He said, and in stepped Infinity, Oracle for the pack who also happened to have been his mother’s best friend and now acted as a mum to both himself and his brother, Atticus.His thoughts shifte
Tristan stood there staring at the Oracle in shock for a moment.A confused chuckle escaped his lips. “No, but— how is that even possible? Natalie is human, it’s-it’s supposed to work— it did work, in fact, because I didn’t see her panicking or showing fear, Infin… not even when we were all alone and I took her downstairs.” He stated in conviction. “I don’t know, maybe the staff is… broken?”Infinity shot him a look, “Don’t be silly, child… there is nothin’ wrong with the staff. The reason why she didn’t show any reaction to ya is because she’s still in shock. It rarely happens, but it can. Sometimes, extreme fear can cause the mind to temporarily shut off some memories, but they’ll appear eventually. They always do.”With those last words, the Oracle headed for the door. “I think the problem is with the girl.” She told the boy h
By second period, Natalie was so glad she had decided to attend lectures. Nothing special was happening, really— it was just another normal day in college in fact— but the silver haired girl liked learning, and with everything that was going on in her life— the weird happenings, her incessant interest in Tristan and his life— this seemed to be the only thing giving her solace.Even her own home didn’t do that anymore.Lunch break came surprisingly quickly, hinting at the approaching nighttime and reminding the young woman that soon, she’d have no choice but to return home. She had just three classes today; two in the morning, one after lunch— she didn’t even have to stay the full day on campus, yet Natalie was determined to only go home when the sun had long gone to sleep.Hell, she’d spend the rest of the day at the library if she had to.Natalie was so deep in thought as she went ab
UNKNOWN POVDEAR DIARY,She grows beautiful each and every passing day.It was just yesterday she was a child, and now she has tits and curves in all the right places. I stare at her through this broken mirror,I see her every step, her every move… I feel pain when she’s happy, and I relish in the joy her sadness brings me.She is mine, Diary.Mineee!Oh, it won’t be long now…Won’t be long before I have her in my arms, gauging her pretty blue eyes out with my bare claws, moaning in pleasure as I torture her and take away her innocence, drinking her blood as she screams for me to stop, as she begs over and over again for me to let her go.Only I won’t be able to.I wil
“We can’t do this to Natalie, Phil… we promised her this would be our last move—”“Now you know that was a lie, Lynn. How are we going to give her the life she deserves if we don’t work?” The handsome middle-aged man argued, the circles under his eyes highlighting how weary he really was. His voice took on a more gentle tone. One thing he truly hated was making his dear wife upset, for you see, he loved her with all his heart, and she loved him too. “This is a blessing in disguise, Lynn. The house is practically free, and even you can’t deny how lovely it looks. We won’t even have to make a big move anymore, Lynn. Natalie can make permanent friends, there’s a very good school over there… just say yes, Lynn.”Lynn knew her dear husband was right, but she had a bad feeling about all of this. “I love the whole idea, but it’s just that I’m not comfortable with moving int
Wednesday came by in a flash.For Natalie Sanders, there was this pit in her stomach that she just couldn’t seem to comprehend. She couldn’t shake off the idea that the move was someway somehow a bad idea.Well, don’t get me wrong, a part of her was inwardly pleased at the move, there was nothing really tying her down to this place after all but something still felt off.Natalie had many questions for one.Questions like who the hell was great-aunt Martha, and why was she now hearing about the woman? Questions like why would someone leave something as grand as a five bedroom fully furnished house to a relative they barely knew nothing about in their will? Questions like why was the move so sudden? Why couldn’t they just sell the house and stay here instead?A whole lot of questions.Of course she’d know the answer to these many questions if only she asked her parents, but the problem here was t
UNKNOWNDIARYYY, Just her mere presence in my vicinity, and I can already feel myself becoming strongerrr.I saw her naked body today, Diary… she was taking a shower, wanted to get rid of all the dirt she had on her from packing or so she said. I could see her through the walls, Diary —lots of demons like me do this to unsuspecting girls all over the world who manage to catch our attention, you know? — And you have no idea how I wished she could sense my presence, but I’m not that strong yet!Soon Diary, soon!She’s even more impressive in person. It was definitely not the same as looking at her through the broken mirror, why the hell did I think it would be? It was even better!
