She stared at Roman who kept trying to avoid eye contact so he won’t have to give in; he understands what it feels to lose someone. He lost his brother and Mother to Bernard without even having to say his final goodbye. Harley has a chance to do that now so why should he take it away from her?“Fine, I guess we can wait a little” He eventually gave in; fighting his own inability to stand his ground but yet still understands that it was the right thing to do.“Thank you” Harley held his hand softly and he gave a faint smile, with each time they spent with each other he felt the connection and so does she.“Oh hey Harley” Harley and Roma turned sharply at the voice of a blonde girl standing sassily with her arms crossed and a wicked smirk on her face.“What do you want amber?” Harley asked as she let out an exasperated sigh“Oh easy Harley, I’m not here to fight you. I’m just surprised to see you here” she said in a casual tone as she shruggedBut she was just trying to get on Harley’s
“I’ll make it home in time” she answered softly as she looked away.“Alright everyone, let’s move. Light your candles!” Bonnie and another brunette beside her yelled as everyone started rushing out of the hallway“Harley!” Roman shook her“Roman let me go! Leave me alone and go!” she tried removing his hand from her arm but she has a strong grip.Roman looked back and noticed the two men approaching them as people were rushing out of the hallway with their candles in hand.“Gosh, I’ve heard enough of your whining. Sorry Harley” He grabbed her by the wrist and started dashing towards the exit as students were passing through the entrance, dragging Harley involuntarily.He kept looking back and this time the men were running after them too, “Let me go!” Harley jerked his hands off hers in annoyance.“I am not leaving till I light this candle for my sister and that’s it!” she yelled before running away from him“Harley wait!” Roman tried to run after her but stopped abruptly, trying to c
She blew out her candle and immediately brought out her phone from her back pocket so she could use the screen as a mirror, and what she saw made her flinch.Two canines were trying to force their way out of her gum, she looked up at the moon and it was at that moment that she knew had fucked up.“Shit” she cussed before maneuvering her way through the little crowd with haste; she dashed towards the hallway entrance and hurriedly flung the door open.It was empty which was good for her, her eyes started flashing blue and talons forced their way from her fingers. She was supposed to be getting more agile and clouded by animal instinct but instead she was getting weaker, she hid her hands into the pocket of the hoodie she wore and tried to drag herself into the Girl’s bathroom.On getting to the door her legs betrayed her and she crashed on her feet, her heart was slowing down as she started breathing in a shallow manner.She was covered in sweat and her body temperature was through th
“Shit what have I done?” He whispered to himself, just then Roman jerked up and started coughing violently till he too vomited something black with seed like contents in it.“Oh thank God buddy, thought I lost you” Lucas exhaled deeply before crashing on his ass beside RomanHarley took sat down exhausted on the ground, all three of them were gazing at the moon. Somehow Roman and Harley escaped whatever the danger the moon would make them do to people.“What the fuck happened?” Roman asked, in a matter of seconds they started hearing screams followed by multiples gunshots.“It’s a freaking snake!” A man yelled, three of them took quick glances at each other before jerking up on their feet“Sophie” They said simultaneously***************************************The next morning, Roman woke up on the chaise lounge in one corner of the living room. He groaned as he opened his eyes and his pupils tried to adjust to the ray of sunlight penetrating from the window.He got up from the loung
“what cure? I don’t understand, why are you talking in clues Lucas?” Roman was starting to get frustrated“You were poisoned and so I gave you guys the cure” Lucas dropped his glass on the table“Poisoned” Harley arched a brow, “By who?”“You heard your dad say it yesterday, didn’t you?” Lucas added“My dad, He was with you? How and why but mostly how did you come across each other?” Roman sounded so confused, he hadn’t seen his dad since he escaped Bernard so how come Lucas saw him and he didn’t?“I don’t know but your legs were caught in a trap and he freed you, he also tried to gun down Bernard’s men that wanted to take and eventually we both did. But he was quick to know you were poisoned, I guess a hunter would always be a hunter” Lucas shrugged“My dad tried to save me? My own dad” Roman looked taken aback, he knows what his dad can do and from what his dad did to him he didn’t think there was any humanity or fatherly love left in him.“He didn’t try to catch me and hand me down
“Yeah well I wasn’t planning to but I just need to be away from home, and in as much as you’re part of the people I want to be away from I just feel I’m safer here” Joan said dryly, hating that she had to admit that to him. He lied to her, he knew something she had every right to know and he still kept it from her.“You’re welcome here anytime, my son just left for school and I’m leaving for work now so just feel at home” He tried to sound accommodating but she wasn’t buying it“Why didn’t you tell me Hardin?” she asked and he looked dumbfounded, he didn’t know what to say because he was wrong about not telling her and if he could do anything to reverse it then he would.“Why didn’t you tell me Grey cheated? Were you supporting him”” Her voice sounded shaky like she was trying to hold back her tears“I really wanted to tell you I swear, but I just couldn’t afford to wreck your happy home. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if the two of you separated because I refused to mind my b
“Hardin is a very private man; he really knows how to keep his things. I don’t even know where to start looking but I can try” Joan said, she doubted if she could dig up anything on him. Since he knows she’s on to him he might even want to keep his stuff more.“Just do your best Joan and I know that you can do it, don’t be scared? He can’t do anything to you” He assured her and she nodded“Now I need to get to work, but I’ll be checking in from time to time” He got up and grabbed his duty belt off the table and put it onHe was already walking towards the door when his phone started ringing“Hello, Sheriff Hardin speaking” He said as he picked the call“Hardin please, please come help me. He’s going to kill me!” The female voice on the other ended screamed into the phone“Shannon?”********************************Nimueh was in a small cave inside the black hill cemetery, a long table was in front of her with bowls and ritualistic elements.Ever since she lost her powers and was left
**********************************Sheriff Hardin drove at immense speed on the road with another police car following him behind, in it was Officer Perry.After he had gotten that panic call from Shannon he had to leave Joan and dash out of the house, calling Officer Perry for back up while getting into his car. Shannon seemed like she was in a lot of trouble, she was crying and her voice was trembling on the phone.Hardin could hear breaking and crashing sounds in the background, he didn’t want to assume what he initially thought was happening and if it is then someone is definitely going to jail today.The first time she called and he heard her voice, the call dropped. He knew at that moment something was wrong but there wouldn’t be enough time to track her location. He called back and asked for the address, she was giving it to him and he picked up a man’s raging voice in the background. It was definitely her husband.He finally arrived at the house and he parked immediately after
