Ella's POVDinner was ready, the house was clean courtesy of my hardworking boys and the boys were happily munching on their rewards. I hoped they wouldn't mess up the whole place tomorrow again as there were a lot to do which we planned to start on tomorrow and I couldn't afford to clean after them every time. I didn't have the time to spare and I was going to get drained."You should eat your food before it gets cold, boys." I warned them."We will." They replied, still munching on their cookies and leaving their food untouched.I sighed, hating that they were going to have to eat their food in its cold state but there was nothing I could do about that. It had been no one's fault that the food had gotten ready at the time they finished tidying up the room. They had been slow with what they were meant to do but it was worth it as the house was in a much better state than it had been when their father and Liam had entered it.I couldn't blame Kevin for giving the boys their treats eve

Ella's POVIn three days, we were done searching all the private schools in the neighborhood and it was left for us to search the public schools. I had a huge frown on my face as I left the last private school with the boys and didn't find the girl.I had had a tiny hope bubbling in my heart that we would be able to find her in a private school. After all, why would assassins want to go after a girl who wasn't from a rich family? Not that I was being judgemental but I didn't expect that the young girl with the supposed dramatic ending to her life was going to be an average Joe."Mum, are we going out today as well?" Neo asked as I got them ready."Yes. Let's get ready on time." I replied, pulling Nathan's t-shirt down his head.I had been buying them the cookies they wanted and loved so they had been amiable for the past two days and hadn't been rude to any other principal. Asides that, I had given them a tongue lash and long lecture on their attitude after we had left the office of t

Ella's POVI was in a panic all through the day, afraid of what was going to happen at the end of it. I couldn't sit still. I knew Kevin and Liam were also afraid but they didn't have their fears boldly written on their faces like I did. They were masters at pretending to be calm and I didn't think I could ever get to that level that they were in. I just couldn't, no matter how hard I tried to reach it.I should have known this was coming soon when Nathan had flown into a rage and beaten up that boy over his refusal to apologize. I should have prepared for this day if not that I had been distracted with finding the girl as soon as we could.I wondered what kind of mother I was becoming if I was willing to let my kids be a nuisance around here. I was a werewolf mother with werewolf kids living in a mortal world, I shouldn't have forgotten about a day like this."What was wrong with me?" I muttered softly under my breath."Now, you are being too hard on yourself." Kevin said.I glanced

Ella's POVOh! I needed a break. I needed to feel the breeze move past my face. The house wasn't stuffy as the air conditioner was working and the whole apartment was cold but I wanted to be out still. I needed the fresh air on my skin and in my lungs. I wasn't going for a run so I wouldn't be able to get the breeze flying past my hair and flowing fast and hard into my nostrils as I wanted but I was going to take what I wanted for now.I was sure Lucy wouldn't mind as well. She must definitely need the breeze more than I did. She hadn't been out in days so I knew that she was feeling more cooped than I was. I knew what was making me antsy due to the many unsuccessful attempts to find the girl and the time was ticking. We were already here for more than three weeks and this was starting to feel like a fruitless vacation to me. I was starting to think that the red witch had given us the wrong map and had been wrong with either the destination address to where we were going or we had the

Ella's POVI kept wondering if I got Gabby's home address right as I had never had a reason to come to this part of the street. Asides, from going to supermarkets and schools to find the little girl, I didn't go out much. Our house was closer to the road so I only had to walk a bit to the road to find a cab. I never had to come down here.I hoped that we weren't going to get ourselves lost and waste too much time finding the house as we were already late. I realized a few minutes later that I didn't have to bother my head with worry as we found the house just as we walked down the street. Her house screamed her name and her personality I smiled as we walked towards it, certain that I making a mistake.I knocked gently on the door and waited. I could hear soft music streaming through the door and the voices of guests so I didn't have to wonder if we were at the right place again. I knew with a certainty that didn't need to be challenged even though she hadn't opened the door yet.The d
