Here you are, bitchThe school met me as usual - that is, gossip and sidelong glances. I'll probably get used to it soon.I did not find Aina in the hostel. A friend sat next to me in class.- Fox! Well, how do you do it?! Every day is fun.- Yeah, fun. It's called scandals.- In my opinion, this is your way of life, - Aina laughed softly.And then she added seriously:- Can you imagine how angry girls are at you? Everyone is taken to the director's office for interrogation. There is a whole delegation of teachers and elders. I don't remember such a fuss in our school. Well, maybe only when your... ahem... - Aina stuttered and coughed.- What are you talking about? - I immediately tensed up. My intuition told me that it was connected with my family.“Your sisters and stepmother,” Aina continued quietly.- Disappeared?! So you mean they're gone? When? Why aren't they looking for them?- Immediately after the death of your father, - Aina did not want to talk about this topic. - You'd be
I'm not running up, just trying to get my life on trackI went to school in a happy mood. Damian has been released and is able to attend classes again. And, I will not be hypocritical, the fact that Viola is now in custody instead of him did not upset me at all. Well, okay, I confess, I was even glad that I would finally spend the next few days calmly in the absence of one unpleasant splinter.The first thing I ran into the guys class. Damiana met me at the door to the office.- What are you doing here? The lesson will now begin!- Domi! I'm so glad to see you! - Sincerely hugged a friend. He quickly pulled away and shook his head.In the next second, he jumped back as if scalded and bowed his head. I rolled my eyes, realizing that Zark was standing behind me. However, he wasn't the only one standing there. Toby and the demon watched my wild cheers. Toby - with a raised eyebrow in surprise, Zark - with a gloomy expression on his face.Why don't you take care of your fiancee? Zark grow
No one will decide for me- I want to go to my father's clan! I've been stubbornly repeating to Toby for ten minutes now.After a hard night with endless dreams, where the yellow-eyed werewolf hugged me passionately, and then disappeared into the gray haze of the forest, I didn’t even want to go for a run. I lay on the bed and thought about the fate of my sisters and the circumstances of my father's death. When her thoughts began to fill up with the vision of the demon's tired face, and "don't play with me!" sounded in her head, she resolutely threw back the covers and plunged into the coolness of a refreshing shower. By the beginning of the lessons, I stood outside the school and waited for Tobias.- Well, why don't you live in peace? The guy sighed. - If you really want it, go talk to Zark.- Never! If you can't help me, I'll go alone or with Patrick. With my bodyguard, can I go outside the school? - I could ask for more Damian, but I was afraid to set him up in front of Zark.- Did
Everything just gets more confusingIn the morning, light fluffy snow covered the entire yard. The air chilled my cheeks. Instead of running, I started making snow figures. Probably too carried away by childish fun. I didn't know that Zark was standing on the porch watching me.- Chanterelle, you are a child.Are you peeking again? - shuddered at his mocking remark and was embarrassed.- It's fun to watch you.“Baby, then,” I squinted slyly.And a hastily made snowball flew into the demon. Zarq raised one eyebrow as he considered whether or not to fight me in the snow, and I knew it was going to be hard for me. The demon's revenge fell on me like a bunch of snow grenades. I ran around the yard, dodging projectiles. Zarq was throwing me at incredible speed. I laughed, barely managing to throw a couple of snowballs in response. Finally, she ran out of steam and, unable to stay on her feet, flew straight at Zark. We fell on the white snow-covered ground and suddenly burst out laughing. T
Guess it's time to grow upI woke up in my bed in the middle of the night. Went downstairs for a drink of water. She tiptoed through the living room so as not to wake Zarq.- Who is there? - they called me.- I'm sorry, - she turned around and stared in surprise at ... Patrick!- What are you doing here?!The master asked to be replaced.Where is Zark?“Master returned to the Western Clan.- Why? He didn't tell me anything.The master didn't tell me why.Patrick shrugged. I felt my heart fill with disappointment.All day long, Patrick, on behalf of Zarq, briefed me on the affairs of the Southern clan. They really intended to entrust me with the management of my father's affairs?- Patrick! I've said a hundred times that I can't do this. I'm only sixteen! I came to learn something new about my father's death! I found out. Now we can return.- The master ordered to show you everything here. Let's see and go.We drove deep into the forest along a winding forest road. The snow had melted,
My crazy planAll night long thoughts about the blond bitch kept me awake: where could she have run away to?In the morning curiosity brought me to the demon's house. I hesitantly stamped my feet at the threshold and was already thinking of cowardly retreat. But she didn't have time to leave.- Is your wild little head looking for adventure again?- BUT? - I turned around. Zark stood in the doorway wearing nothing but trousers. His powerful tanned torso made me nervously swallow saliva.- I say, where did you go again early in the morning?“Actually, I came to you,” I diligently looked away from his breathtaking body.Zark raised an eyebrow.- I won't invite you, speak here.Well, here it is again! Are we pretending to be strangers again?"Don't be offended," Zark said softly, seeing my confused face, "I'm worried about you." We shouldn't be alone.I immediately blushed, remembering last night. Zark entered the house and returned a minute later already dressed. We sat on the terrace.
I'm going to my mom's clanThe elders were waiting for us. The young Yugari took me to a small old house. He stood alone on the outskirts of the settlement. Dense thickets of trees surrounded him from all sides, threatening to swallow him completely. My "bodyguards" were asked to stay outside. Zark tensed. I quietly squeezed his hand: everything is in order.I was invited to sit in a high, tattered leather armchair. Two old men with gray hair and faded colorless eyes were carefully studying mother's pendant.- This is a real one. You say it belonged to your mother? croaked the first old man.I nodded confidently.- We need to look at the records of the archive. Every oun counted. We can easily find out who it really belonged to, - the old man slowly got up and left the room.- And who is your father? Human? - In the meantime, he moved on to the interrogation of the second.I frantically searched for a safe answer.- Yugari.- That's how, ours, then ...Good thing he didn't elaborate!
I started a dangerous game againI still couldn't sleep. Zark returned almost in the morning. He smelled of alcohol. For the first time I saw a demon drunk. Desperate to sleep, she went out to breathe. The morning dawned. A thin pink streak cut across the horizon. I didn’t want to go for a run, and I had to hurry. I'll go wake up Partik. I turned to the door and froze. Someone sneaked into our house. The stranger in the black mask did not notice me. He was focused on his goal. I cautiously followed the stranger.- Zark!!! - My cry of horror deafened the attacker.He froze with a knife held high above his head. Zark opened his eyes. He stared for a second at the sharp blade hanging above him. The reaction of his body was instant. Furry as he went, he waved his hand. Long claws flashed in the darkness of the room. The striker did not even understand what had happened. Four neat deep cuts adorned his stomach. The stranger doubled over and dropped the knife from his hand. Blood gushed fro
