Patrick's POVThe way I shut the car door I am sure the hinges might bolt free. But I didn't care at this point, I just want to get myself dazed and try not to think of the humiliation that bitch called Alessia brought to me. To think that worm named Ashley, had the audacity to look me in the eye with no fear whatsoever reeking from her. This was the height of it. "Rick?" Mum called out the moment she saw me enter. For fuck sakes I thought they would be out by now. "Why you home so early?""Go ask that bitch you are making me put up with!" I yelled in her face, making my way upstairs to my room.As angry as I was, I didn't forget to lock the door behind me. The last thing I want is to have my parents catch me sniffing cocaine I would be whisked away to an unknown island and probably have to commit suicide in the end just to hide my shame.Searching for the white substance hurriedly in my shoes where I hid them I poured it out on my usual stool and sniffed every tiny bit of powder. T
Collin POV"Someone looks happy." Annette whispered behind me.Looking back at her I smiled brightly, "Hey Annette come join me." I patted the space next to me. After spending half the day with Alessia I had returned home to find the whole house empty. Not wanting to remain indoor alone, I had come up to the roof to seat. "So, why are you so happy?" A laugh escaped my lips, "how would you know I am happy?" She rolled her eyes, "your shoulders look relaxed and you were throwing out your leg not fearing you could fall off."I snickered, "you know I wouldn't.""Just making an emphasis. What happened today?" She inquired.I stared out into the busy streets as my brain played out the moment I and Alessia had spent together all day in each other's arms. Talking, making out, eating our orders and repeat. Till her alarm reminded us of the need to be home. When I asked her why she had set an alarm in her watch, she had explained the reason to be due to situations where she forgets herself
Collin POVBefore anyone could get a hold of Wayne, he had dived into the room he shared with Annette not greeting anyone. Ester decided to hold on till dinner was ready. The table felt stiff as we all sat down, Charlie had instructed Seth to go call Wayne. He seem to have come down reluctantly as he acted grumpy. I would have preferred we finished having dinner before anyone brought up the topic because I am so famished. Instead, mum decided not to wait for Wayne to settle before calling him out."What is this I hear about you not wanting a child, Wayne? Asked Ester.A strange look morphed on Wayne's face as he looked towards Annette, "so, you go about exposing our secrets now?" Annette gulped hard, as she stared hard at her plate. "it's not what you think."Charlie scoffed, "Are we strangers now?""You can't interfere in my family business. This my own family and you should stay out of it." Wayne said rudely."Don't talk back at your father like that!" Ester warned. "We raised you
Miranda's POV"I promise to talk to her Carla, please." I tried to reason with the raging woman on the other end of the phone."Patrick is so unhappy and you know how much he loves her. Please talk to her, I don't want my son to do anything crazy." Carla wailed. "Don't worry, they would be back together in no time." I assured her. The line went dead and a hot breath escaped my nostrils. Dad glared at me with those stiff eyes of his that would snuff confidence out of anyone. The phone had been placed on speaker for him to hear."And what is this I am hearing? Why the hell is Alessia misbehaving?" He bellowed in his bass voice. It had fearful shivers running down my spine. I don't think I would ever get used to hearing dad's angry tone. The fear of Gregory Winters is sure the beginning of wisdom. I inhaled, "I don't know yet dad. They are teenagers, probably they got into a small argument. It would sort itself in no time.""It had better sort itself. If not you know what that means.
Alessia's POVHearing mum call out to me had different thoughts coming to my mind. Judging by the look on her face and how rigidly she carried herself back to the study she was coming from, there is no doubt it has something to do with Patrick and I.Really, whatever she has to say, I am in no mood for it. My day has been going smoothly and it was almost surreal. I should have known it was too good to be true. Almost like it's an unlucky charm; the moment everything is going so well something or someone in the case of Patrick or my mum most times would ruin it for me."You should go, she doesn't look too good." Allen adviced, walking past me.Taking In a deep breath, I followed behind her. She was standing by the table with her hand to the back when I got to the study. My presence had been sensed the moment I stepped in. With a vicious look on her face, mum raised her brow. "Why are you hell bent on making me a terrible mother?" I mirrored her expression, folding my arms. "what do y
Collin's POVI held my backpack tightly to my back almost as I waited for Ashley to come. Before I headed to bed late last night, she had texted me to meet up with her as early as I can in school before other people start to arrive. Knowing it has to do with her discovery as regards my necklace. I was feeling a bit anxious, I couldn't tell what I was expecting. But at th same time, I just feel it's appropriate for me to know why it looks so extraordinary. If it were up to me I would have taken it off, since none of the guys my age have something so odd on themselves. But I am a werewolf, which is a fact and might be the reason behind my possession of it. Being sincere with myself, the only reason I haven't taken it off is all because it's the only personal thing that reminds me of my mum. Everytime my hand brushes through it, it feels like she is close to me. The nightmares have heightened and it keeps pointing towards some evil people trying to reach me through the necklace. Prob
Collin's POVI rubbed at my forehead lightly, this is like the last person I want to see. And I wasn't even expecting to come across him at all. It's not like we have anything doing together. Why he was early to school surprised me? But when I stood up trying to ignore him, I realized Ashley and I have been seated for quite a while and students have started arriving."Let's just leave, Collin." Ashley said, holding my hand. We didn't get to take a foot as Patrick stood in our way. "Not so fast you both. Does anyone of you intend to explain to me what you are both doing in the garden all alone without Alessia?" "How is that any of your business?" I retorted, not feeling the need to be cool. My insides are boiling. Patrick let out a snort, "are you screwing her alongside Alessia too?"I was about to give him a dose of his own pill for disrespecting Ashley but she was quicker than me, as she dashed Patrick an eye turning slap. "Don't you ever mention my name in such filth again! I a
Alessia's POV"Calm down Alessia, stop pacing around." Allen cautioned me.I threw him a vicious glare ignoring his advice. I still didn't want to believe that Patrick stooped so low to cause trouble for Collin. Not only did he make Collin the bad egg, he also had him suspended and that is something I am not going to allow.Staring at the principals door, for it to burst open any moment from now had me on the edge. I want to hit him across the face so hard till he falls down flat on his face. It's so surreal that I had been into someone as loose headed as him.My eyes went towards Ashley who had her arms wrapped around herself. Despite having Ashley as the witness to the whole fight scene. The principal listened to what Patrick and his mother had to say instead and had Collin thrown out of the school like a piece of trash. I walked up to Allen, "I am calling Ashley's dad right now." "Don't Alessia. Just let it be. It would be too much trouble for Collin, you know how powerful Patric
