Moon kept on sighing in Skyler's head. "I can't believe you let them take her away""There was nothing I could do at that moment" Skyler frowned."She's our mate for goodness sake" Moon growled."Fine, we will go and see her tomorrow, but we need to put things in order first," Skyler said. Moon responded with a snort.After making sure that Skyler has had enough time to digest today's happening, Lucas finally walked over to where he was, still seated on the cold marble floor with a frown."Hey, get up, man. you can't sit here forever" Lucas said.Cocking his head to face Lucas, Skyler let out a sigh, he knew Lucas was right. He can't keep sitting here and sighing like an abandoned puppy. Skyler pushed himself away from the ground with the support of Lucas."Thanks man, for everything" Skyler said. He was indeed very thankful to Lucas, from helping him out of the rogues' den to this very moment. Skyler was indeed very grateful to have a frie
Clara's eyes stayed on carving before turning to face the strange looking people who were seated in the living room."You're awake, finally." Nimue smiled.Clara remained on the spot, not moving an inch, while standing she cocked her head to different directions in search of any quick exit, but she found none."Come, take a seat". Nimue beckoned at her, but Clara still did not move from where she stood."Who are you people?" Clara asked.And the man who was seated among the women in the living room smiled at her and said."We are your people, Shayne"Clara frowned, she didn't know these people, yet they acted like they were acquainted with her, they even called themselves her people, and what was that name again?,her frown deepened."I'm sorry, but I don't know you. I don't know any of you. Whatever this is, I don't want to be a part of it. I just want to go back. just let me go please". Clara pleaded. Inwardly, she had
Clara resisted the urge to look back at the man. She shut her eyes and took a deep breath. Various emotions were playing out in her mind, emotions she couldn't quite understand, emotions that felt foreign to her. She let out a tired sigh.As the car moved further away, Clara opened her eyes to see the sign post that had "bye bye to mystic falls" written boldly on it. She tensed. Isn't she supposed to feel some relief? Why then does it feel as if she had left behind something very important?.The drive to the airport was silent, her friends were confused about many things but still decided to wait until she was comfortable to talk about it.When they reached the airport, Clara and her friends didn't have to wait too long before they boarded the flight. The plane finally landed in the Lakewood airport , Clara and her friends highlighted from the plane and silently rolled their suitcases out from the airport.They waited to board an airport cab, because they
Even though Flora had earlier behaved like everything was fine, she knew in her heart that nothing was fine, she sat down on her bed lost in thoughts. Clara looked like Clara but in some way, she wasn't, something had definitely changed but Florida didn't know what it was.Flora got out of bed and searched for her phone. Something must have happened during the vacation that Clara isn't willing to tell her, she had no choice but to put a call through to Clara's friend to inquire about it, so she dialed Raya's number and it started to ring."Hello Mrs Michael"came from the voice from the other end of the phone."Raya darling, how are you doing?". Flora asked."I'm fine, do you need anything?"."No, not at all. I just wanted to know if by any chance something happened while you guys were away, your friend has been acting strangely, since she came back""No ma'am, it was all good until Clara went to a ball party with some guy named Xander an
Clara quietly sat on the sofa and listened to her mother as she recollected the past. Her mind was quick to process every detail and there were so many questions she wanted to ask, but she decided to keep it for later, knowing that she needed to take her time to absorb what she had heard so far."How did that lady sustain those injuries?" Unable to contain her curiosity, Clara asked. Her voice was still as low as it had been."Apparently, the both of you got hit by a truck and she shielded you from possible harm and that was the reason for the severe fractures in her bones""After meeting you in the hospital ward, I asked my colleague to carry out a DNA test on you and the lady. she wasn't related to you in any way, which was somehow very confusing because she had loved and protected you like her own" Flora explained.Clara could understand to some extent because that old lady had said something about being sent away by her biological mother to an unknown
Clara woke up the following day with a throbbing headache, a soft groan left her lips as she slowly raised herself from the sofa. Clara's gaze scanned the entire living room before they landed on her Mother who was still fast asleep on the sofa.Clara's eyes softened at the sight of her mother, slowly she got up from the sofa and walked over to where Flora was sleeping."Mom" Clara called softly while tapping lightly on Flora's shoulders to wake her up from the sleep.Flora slowly rubbed her eyes before opening them to see Clara standing beside her, she smiled"Good morning sweetie" she greeted "Mom" Clara stared at her mom with a slightly frowned face."You really didn't have to watch over me while I was asleep. I'm sure your back hurts right now from sleeping on this single sofa all night" Clara grumbled.Flora's smile widened at seeing the look of concern on Clara's face. She sat up straight on the sofa and yawned."I'm fin
Back in mystic falls, Emmet was in the underground dungeon with only a few of the rogues who were able to survive the attack by the mystic shadow pack warriors by fleeing from the scene. Lucas and the pack warriors had killed the rest of the rogues and burnt their remains, and taken a few survivors captive for questioning.Emmet had locked himself in the dungeon for days after the attack and only now did he call on the few rogues that were left alive. Emmet was sitting on a bench with head slightly bent, where he supported his head with his hand by resting one elbow on his thighs while slowly tapping his foot on the dungeon grounds. Silence reigned for a few more minutes before he raised his head to look at the people present in the room."I thought I asked a question?" Emmet said with gritted teeth and he looked no less than a raging wolf. The rogues trembled at the sound of the deadly voice. They glance among themselves before one summons up the courage t
Clara sat up straight, wanting to scold her mother for bringing company at a time like this, also wanting to ask her friends to please stay away and go back to their houses but Clara sighed and gave up the idea, she didn't have the heart to scold her Mom or ask her friends to leave as that would mean hurting them.Clara forced a smile at her friends. Kyle, who she hasn't seen since after her birthday, was now present in her room. He crossed the distance between them and gave her a big hug. Clara hugged him back, she couldn't deny how much she had missed him. Raya and Gina also joined the hug, making it a group hug. The hug sent warmth to Clara's heart and her eyes teared up at the amount of love she was receiving even though she wasn't a normal human anymore.After releasing Clara from the hug, they urged her to go freshen up and then Flora told her to come downstairs and have lunch. Kissing Clara on the cheek before leaving the room with Kyle, to give Clara some privacy. Raya and Gina
