WHITNEY'S POVI ran to my bed and fell on it as I started weeping profusely. Within a split second, my pillow was soaked with my tears.My mind drifted back to all that happened in Luther's room. How did our quarrel escalate to the point where he wanted to kill me? We were just exchanging words before the whole thing escalated and the next thing was that he wanted to strangle me to death. I know I provoked him by insulting his mother, but am I supposed to keep quiet after he insulted mine? I can never keep quiet when someone insults my parents no matter who the person is aside from the Alpha and the Luna. I recalled how Luther tried to strangle me twice and how I struggled to breathe. I recalled how his eyes were blazing with anger the two times he almost snuffed out my life. There is no doubt in my mind that he wanted to kill me. The thought of it made me quiver in trepidation. If he had killed me, how would he have disposed of my corpse without letting anyone know? Perhaps, he co
HENRY'S POVI was furious as I left Whitney's room. I walked angrily down the hallway and stopped at the door of Luther's room. I knocked hard on the door and waited for a couple of seconds but there was no response. I knocked again and waited but there was still no response. Instantly, I was gripped by fear as I recalled that Whitney told me that she smashed a bottle on his head and he lost consciousness. I hope he is not dead, I thought as I became agitated. But he can't be dead cos Whitney said that she revived him before she left the room. Even though I know that my brother is evil, I don't want him to die. Besides, if he dies, my father and mother will not spare Whitney's life.After waiting for a couple of seconds and still no response, I turned the doorknob and the door opened. I pushed it slowly as my heartbeat was racing.I entered the room and stood by the doorway. My heart skipped a bit as I saw Luther lying motionless on the floor. There was a little pool of blood on th
LUTHER'S POVAfter sleeping for some time, I woke up feeling reinvigorated. The headache had stopped as well as the body pains. I only felt some pain in the cuts on my head. I touched the cut and felt the plaster. I was surprised cos I wasn't aware when it was placed there but I knew it must have been Henry who did. I yawned and stretched out my arms and my hand touched a body. I was shocked as I quickly turned my head and saw Henry. He was fast asleep. I turned my head and stared at the chandelier hung on the ceiling.When did he come to sleep beside me? I wondered as I recalled when he gave me the medication and soon after I drifted off to sleep. I was semi-conscious when he was dressing my wound but I don't remember when he lay on the bed. If not for Henry that came to help me, I don't know what would have become of me. Thank goodness that he came at the right time. He is a good brother and a nice guy, perhaps too nice for my liking. The most annoying thing about him is that h
LUTHER'S POVI was bewildered as I stared at Henry. When did he see Whitney and when did she talk to him? I didn't want anyone to hear about it but now that she has told Henry what can I do? But how do I admit to Henry that I wanted to rape Whitney barely a week after the first one? Or how do I admit that I almost strangled her to death? If I admit it to them, he is bound to flare up knowing the kind of werewolf that he is. And if he does, he might berate me and I don't think I will be able to tolerate it. How will I keep calm and watch my kid brother berate me without me responding? I am bound to be provoked and we would exchange words that might degenerate into a physical fight. I don't think I will be able to defeat him in my present state and it would be so humiliating to be beaten by my kid brother.As I gazed at Henry, I could see his eyes blazing with anger. There is no way I am going to admit to whatever Whitney might have told him cos this room would soon become a ba
LUTHER'S POVHenry was looking at me with fury in his eyes as I thought of what to tell him. Can I lie to him? But what will I tell him cos it is obvious that it is a lady's underwear? Can I tell him that it belongs to my girlfriend? If I should tell him that, how do I explain how it got torn? If the matter escalates and my father gets to hear about it, he will likely summon my girlfriend if I claim it belongs to her. That would further complicate things cos my girlfriend would get upset that I have another girlfriend and may likely not admit that the panties belong to her even though I persuade her. Besides, Whitney would identify it as hers and it would be outrageous to be arguing with her over panties. Considering all this, I resigned myself to fate and decided to admit to the allegation. I believe that if I plead with Henry not to tell anyone, he wouldn't and I will also plead with him to beg Whitney on my behalf so that she wouldn't tell anyone. "Luther, I just asked you a
LUTHER'S POVAs Henry waited for me to answer his question, I couldn't help admiring his level of intelligence. He seems to know me so well cos he was right that I am capable of committing murder but I will be the biggest fool to admit to that. I have always known him to be intelligent but in recent times, especially since my episode with Whitney, I have secretly marveled at his level of intelligence and that is the more reason, I have to be very careful about what I divulge to him. Henceforth, I must be mindful of how I answer his questions, I resolved."Are you stupid? Why should you be asking me if I intend to add murder to my list of atrocities? What kind of question is that? Do you expect me to respond to that?" I asked with anger."Yes, I expect you to answer me," he replied bluntly."You must be out of your mind if you think I will answer such a question! Don't you ever ask me such a question again! Is that clear?" I yelled glaring at him."Hmmm...I guess you don't want to ans
HENRY'S POVI left Luther's room with a mixture of sadness and anger. I felt sad because a sense of impending doom seem to be hovering around him and I felt angry because he refused to listen to me. The most annoying part is that he is accusing me of wishing evil to befall him when all I want is the best for him and that is why I am clamoring for him to change from his evil ways.As I was walking down the hallway and heading to Whitney's room, I heard footsteps behind me. I stopped in my tracks and turned my head to see my father walking toward his room. At that moment, he saw me too and there was a look of surprise on his face as we made eye contact. Seeing him, I remembered that I wanted to talk to him about Luther. It is rare to see him at home during the day, so, I saw it as an opportunity to talk to him if he would give me the time. I turned around and started walking towards him and he stopped in his tracks as he waited for me.
HENRY'S POV"Dad, I have never discussed Luther in the way I want to discuss him with you now even though I have been bothered about his behavior over the years. The reason I have kept mum is that I thought he would change with time but from the look of things, I don't think he is ready to change. I have been watching him secretly over the years ever since we were kids and I guess you will agree with me that he has always been ferocious."My father was silent for a moment as he gazed at me. "How exactly do you mean?" he asked after some seconds. "Dad, before I say what is on my mind, don't you think Luther is vicious, savage, and violent?""Hmmm...those are very strong words that connote a bad person. I don't think I will agree with all the words you labeled him with but I will say he is rather eccentric," he said with a gentle tone."Dad, to me, I think Luther's behavior over the years is beyond eccentric. I am sorry if you feel that the words that I used are too strong but I can't
