>>Portia It turns out, the case actually was serious.It calmed me down knowing that Egon really is trying to protect me by keeping me away from him. Although I don’t like how he did it, I’ll still accept it. This means there’s hope that I won’t be spending my life alone. “So you ended up spilling about the Alpha when you were talking to Miers?” Harou paced around his office, sloshing his wet shoes around the place “It makes sense, we finally have a clue as to why he suddenly went and killed him.” I watched the wet pattern disappear as his soles dried out. “But I didn’t even mention a name,” I replied, “I don’t even know the name of that Alpha.&rd

>>Portia “Yes?” Egon replied looking like he wasn’t fazed by me anymore and that made me somewhat sad. I want him to be more conscious of me, is that bad? Am I being too selfish? Harou and Ulrich were still having a conversation among themselves in the living room and I escaped while they delved deeper into their theories.  “I want to ask you something,” I clenched my fists trying to give myself courage. Now that I was here, I want some clarity. “What?” He asked. I gulped and mentally nodded at myself, “Why didn’t you tell me right from the start why you were avoiding me?” In anticipatio

>>Portia I nervously followed Jena to the kitchen while she looked fazed and disturbed. I guess, to a human the sudden feeling of powerful attraction might be a bit unnerving. But, I wouldn’t really know since I’m not a full-fledged human, nor was I raised like one. “Are you alright?” I asked her in a nervous low tone. “His eyes,” She stopped by the chair and placed her hand on its back for support, “His eyes flashed brighter…” She seemed lost in her thoughts and memory as if trying to make sense of what she saw but trying to make sense of supernatural things only makes it worse, “You,” She turned to me, “You saw that, didn’t you?!” Raising her index finger in my direction she asked me

>>Portia I didn’t get to go far.I tried. I did my best but the twins caught me. Lilith took out her claws and clawed at me, tangling her hairy fingers in my hair and yanking me back. The violent impact made me drop the bag. No! I was more concerned about it dropping on the floor and the ingredients getting squished than the pain that was coming for me. My eyes were stuck to the bag, as it fell, the stuff, like the eggs and tomatoes, rolled out and got spoiled because of the impact. Lilith and Emily pulled me to the side alley, “You ruined so much by running away.” I was thrown into the dark narrow space where I skid against the rough road causing

>>Portia My heart pounded in my chest and my eyes were glued to Egon’s face. My hands clasped over my chest with my cheeks ready to turn tomato red at any moment. “What are you going to do?” I asked softly while he continued to carry me to his room. “Heal your injuries.” He set me down on the bed and crouched down on the floor right by my legs, “If you let me,” He placed his hand on my thigh and looked at me waiting for an answer. “Um,” I knew I was missing something here, “How?” I asked in concern but my voice came out as a whisper. He smirked at my question, “We’re mates,&
