The nightmare
ALICIA'S P.O.V There were sounds of people cheering, rejoicing and clapping by my left and right side. For a brief moment I didn't know what was happening, not until I realised I was dressed in a beautiful wedding gown and I was standing on the aisle. Still uncertain about what was going on I heard a deep voice by my right side as I looked to see that it was my father Eddie and he was dressed in a comely black suit."Dad," I said, drifting my eyes down to his left palm which was open to me. "What Is going on?" I asked."Today is your wedding day, come on sweetheart," He said gently with a smile on his face as I took hold of his hand.I looked forward to the altar to see the priest and Marcus who was dressed in a comely blue suit and a cute smile was on his face. His smile was so real and attractive that I couldn't take my eyes off until I arrived at the altar and made my way opposite him.Everyone settled down at the priest's command as he made us say our marriage vows which after we

What did they discover?
MARCUS P.O.VThe moment I stepped into Alicia's home I got the impression that today would be one of the days I had to be on my best behaviour. Of course I had met with Alicia's father and even helped him on a crime case but his countenance this morning showed me that he was going to take a different turn. Trying to read his mind wasn't going to change a thing because I could sense he would go dynamic. At this point I could see only one picture in his eyes and it was nothing more than a widower who was sad about giving away his only child."Marcus right?" He furrowed his eyebrows as he pressed his lips together. His hesitation crept the hell out of me and no matter how hard I tried to read his mind I still could not, and following after it was an unexpected question."Why Alicia? Why must it be my daughter?" He asked.The question was simple but I was careful, because it had to be what he wanted to hear. "It's because i love her,""Love," He chuckled. "You love her… what do you do for

Unravelled truth
EDDIE'S P.O.VEver since Marcus came to my home I have been having some sense of awkwardness in him, maybe it's just that everything seems new to him or he isn't comfortable.I know he is a good person but I can't let go of the thought that someone was taking my only child away, it's not an easy place to be but it's better that way. I did take the daughter of another man so it's time someone else does the same to me.I could tell my daughter loves him but why does it hurt so badly?I shook my head to get those thoughts off my mind and focus on the task at hand. 'This is my moment to find out whatever had been disturbing the peace of the California,'Some minutes later I arrived at the police station and my two work colleagues Jack and Desmond were present to receive me.They led me into one of the interrogation rooms and right there I found a beautiful young lady seated on a chair and her hands were chained to the table. She had blond coloured hair, fair skin colour and a nice figure.

Don't rush
ALICIA’S P.O.VMy father had never kept anything secret from me before. We had always shared our deepest pains together, I know he isn’t fine and I have to find out what is going on.“What happened dad?” I muttered while I watched him walk upstairs. Marcus was the last person I knew he was with so I think that was the first place to start. As early as 10 a.m. the next morning, after making a meal for Eddie and myself I went up to his room to check up on him. I thought he was already prepared for work but he wasn't. He had refused to leave his room since last night.When I walked inside I saw him lying on the bed with his eyes fixed on the ceiling.“Good morning dad,” I greeted.“Morning sweetheart,” he replied gently, still gazing at the ceiling.“Aren’t you supposed to be at work right now?” I asked curiously.“I don’t feel like going to the office today, I asked my colleague to fill my space, I need to rest,” he answered.“Are you sure you are alright?” I asked, gently taking a seat

Battle with my demon
MARCUS P.O.VThis was beyond what I could stand, I could sense Alicia’s suspicions but my deepest fears was that she never knew I was the one who put her friend in such a condition, if she finds out what I have done I am not sure how long our conflict will last.

He won't stop
ALICIA P.O.VUnder the moist cloud I watched him vanish out of my sight. Staring at the cloud I saw a picture of the times I was in, it was a sign that from this moment my life might not be as pleasant as It had been, this was the fate i chose, the life to spend a lifetime with a Werewolf. Now I have to face my father who had already found out about the monsters which hover the city. It will be a big change in his agenda because I know my father well, he will never stop until he has hunted down every last one of them and he will go to extreme lengths to seek justice even if it means paying for it with his own life.I walked into the house gently closing the door behind me and when I had looked forward, I saw Eddie seated on a sofa chair in the sitting room.His countenance hasn't changed a bit, even his welcoming words were full of flaws."How are you doing dad?" I asked."I'm okay," He answered. I watched his eyeballs wag, the way he looked at me had changed in just a few hours and I

This is how I feel
MARCUS P.O.VAs soon as I ended my conversation with Alicia my phone began to ring. I looked to see who was calling and popped up one of the screens was the name Eddie Lindsey.It was just like she had told me. Her father must be obsessed with the investigation and if he spots even a little flaw it will call for deep suspicion.I heaved a sharp sigh and hoping for the worst I answered the call."Hello," I heard his bass voice through the phone."Hello sir," I answered."Marcus, are you chanced because I would like us to meet up," He said."Yes I am, what is the venue?" I asked."Noble's restaurant and come alone," He said then ended the call.I smelled danger beneath his obscure tone. I knew that this was not going to go well but dishonouring his invitation was an easier way to fall into his list of his most suspected subjects.Without hesitation I went into the bathroom as I freshened up. I dressed like any normal young man, with blue jeans and red striped shirt and putting on my sho

My distraction
MARCUS P.O.VI moved my cell phone away from my ears as soon as she ended the call. I knew what I planned to do but it turns out that it will require help from someone I never wanted to put in danger but as far as I could tell, he was the best person for the job.I took up my cell phone as I dialled Ronald’s phone number. The phone rang for a while then he answered the call.“Hello, who is this?” he asked.“Settle down, it’s Marcus and I called because I need your help,” I answered.“Marcus… wow! How have you been?” he asked in a surprised tone.“I am okay for the time being,” I answered.“Okay, you sound like you are in trouble. What do you need my help for?” he asked.“California just figured about the existence of our kind and the father of my mate just realized that his daughter was destined to mate a werewolf and I will need you as a distraction until I and Alicia are finally united,” I answered.“What! Slow down. If I heard you right, you intend to use me as bait,”“Not exactly

What it means to love
MARCUS P.O.VAfter I had made my point we forged ahead to the crossroad and there we took a cab. Throughout our ride we didn’t say a word to each other until we arrived at a skyscraper. When we came out of the car I looked at Ronald whose eyes were fixed on the building with great admiration.“You never cease to amaze me Marcus, this is your first time being in California and you are already familiar with such a beauty,” he said, drifting his gaze to me. “Why choose this place? I thought we will be having our conversation in a restaurant or a bar but this looks nothing like such,”“This isn’t the time to have good meals, my life is at stake and I think you should do more listening than speaking, now follow me,” I said as I walked in through the entrance.“You know that you don’t have to act mean. Everyone is always fascinated each time they step into a new environment,” Ronald said.“I am still the only son of your Alpha, at least that is until my father finally hands the position to
