Chapter 35Susan PovIt's been two days now since that stranger and I met but he's yet to give me any good news. I tried calling him several times yesterday but he wasn't picking my calls.“Was he just fooling me?” I asked myself when I suddenly thought maybe he was just trying to make a fool out of me.“I'll destroy him if he was just doing all those things to make me look like a fool.” I muttered to myself as I was dialing his number to call him. I tried calling him again and just like the other days, he was picking my calls. “He's now ignoring my calls.” I screamed angrily and threw my phone away. I didn't care where the phone landed when I threw it away, all I know is that I will not let him get away with what he has done to me. “Susan, we have a guest coming here today, he's the man I want for you. He has everything that'll keep a woman happy, so I beg you to be in your best behavior.” My dad said to me the moment he got downstairs. “Dad I thought…” No stories Susan. He's the
Chapter 36Luke PovI have been rejecting Susan’s call for the past few days because her dad invited me over for dinner at their house. I knew Susan would be furious but I didn’t think about that, I just focused on preparing to go visit her. “She’s about to get the biggest shock of her life.” I muttered and let out a soft mischievous smile while spraying my perfume. “Are you heading out now?” Arnold asked me. I looked at him and shook my head. “What happened last night Arnold, you were so wasted last night, at this stage of your life you still not know your drinking limits?” I asked him angrily. As far as I know there’s nothing Arnold is going through right now so I can’t wrap my head around the reason why he had so much to drink last night. “I made some new friends yesterday, I didn’t know they were experts in drinking, I wouldn’t have joined them if I had known.” Arnold explained to me with his head low. I knew that the only way to know that Arnold is really sorry for what he ha
Chapter 37Sandra Pov“Come here.” Claire said to me and hugged me while patting my back. The dream felt so real, somehow I wish it was real and he truly apologized to me for the way he hurt me. After crying for some time I finally stopped and walked into the bathroom. Claire avoided asking me why questions because she didn't want me to feel uncomfortable so she just watched me from afar and made sure I was okay. When I was done taking my bath, I headed downstairs for breakfast.“How are you feeling now?” Claire asked me while looking at my face to make sure I was okay. “I'm fine now.“ I replied to her and took a bite of the toast she prepared. “Are you still going to the event?” I raised my head to look at her when she asked. After the nightmare I had last night it became clearer to me that I needed the fame and money Claire always talks about, that's the only way King Eric will look me in the eyes and apologize to me. “Yes.” Claire looked very happy when I answered her question
Chapter 38Luke's PovGetting to the party I realized almost everyone was coupled up. “Is this supposed to be a couples event?” I muttered to myself angrily and picked a glass of wine from the tray with the waiter.I sipped the wine and looked around but King Eric was no where to be found, I don't want to believe I came for this party and King Eric is not here.I sighed and looked at the stage when I heard the host voice. “I welcome everyone to this year's party, and I want to use this medium to appreciate every one of you here.” The host announced as we all clapped our hands. That was just a notice to us all that the event has just started. I looked around again and finally sighted King Eric, I wanted to go meet him but I noticed there was something interesting going on there. “What could be going on there?” I asked myself as I was looking at that side of the party hall. The lady turned away started running towards me. “Is she blind?” I asked myself when I noticed she was gettin
Chapter 39Luke povIt was becoming more fun to me watching both of them. They looked so in live with each other but there is still this bridge breaking them apart. “Why do you keep looking at that side?” I asked her pretending not to know what's going on. She looked at me angrily and gulped the drink they was left in the cup. I knew she was going to get upset that's why I asked her the question.“It's none of your business.” She said to me angrily and gave me an irritated look, I could take everything that she do, but one thing I just can't accept from her is the irritated feeling look she had on her face. “You don't have to look at me like that, I'm only trying to be a friend.” I said to her a little upset and turned to look at the host of the party that was talking. “I'm sorry, I just have a lot going on in my life right now and it's draining me.” I was shocked to hear her speak to me so much that she had to tell he she has a lot going on in her life. I turned to look at her st
Chapter 40Sandra povI remained on the chair facing the strange young man that tried talking to me a few minutes ago. I don't know what it is but something about him just seems really off to me and I don't want him around me.I felt a little uncomfortable where I was sitting but I didn't want to leave because of King Eric. I was trying to avoid a conversation with him, which he obviously wanted to have. I really wanted to get a lot of things straight with him but at the same time, I didn't want to have the conversation to avoid getting my heart broken again. I've been living very well with kids and a supportive friend and I don't want him to ruin things for me again. I realized that staying at the same table with the young man stopped King Eric from coming closer so I didn't bother you to stand up, then all of a sudden the young man stood up she rushed out of the venue, I thought he was going to stay longer now, King Eric will find a way to come here.I stood up immediately and fol
Chapter 41King Eric's pov“Mom, I'm really not in the mood for this now.” I said to my mom angrily. Cassie joined us on the dinning and she could already tell from the look on our faces that there was something wrong but she count figure out what was wrong. “What's going on? You two don't look in the mood.” Cassie said to the both of us the moment she sat on the dinning chair. “I was just asking him about his event, and the next minute he started acting like I asked for his life.” My mum replied my sister.asshe took a more of her food. My mum and I used to be best friends until Sandra left she started acting different. I knew she genuinely loved Sandra and wanted Sandra for me but acting like this is something I never expected from her. “I'm the Lycan king and now one has to right to question me!” I didn't know where that came from, I was also shocked to hear myself say such nonsense. “I birthed you, so watch what comes out of your mouth.” My mom replied my calmly. It was gettin
Chapter 42Sandra pov“It's fine if you're not going to answer, my mouth just won't stop asking stupid questions.” Claire said to me and started making her mouth for asking the question in the first place. I knew and I could easily tell that Claire was curious and it's obvious she wanted me to go see him.“Stop blaming your mouth Claire, it's only normal that you're curious to know the decision I'll take. I dropped the glass of coffee on the table and sighed. I turned to look at Claire and the way she just kept staring at me was funny, I know she was already having several thoughts trying to guess what my next move would be. “Last night you were not really in a position for me to ask you questions on how the event was.” Claire would never change when it comes to gifts. She loves it so much that she could go for a day without eating and just listening to gist and laughing. “Is that why you were staring at me like that?” I asked her with a smile on my face when I suddenly remembered t
