CAUGHT...ALMOST!
AUTHOR'S POV
The walk home was taken with leisure and ease. No race to get back to get dinner ready and on the stove. No yelling parents to hurry home to - if you could call that place Kathy's home.Fortunately for Kathy, both her parents were at a business lunch/golf thing with the vice president of Mr. Scott's advertisement agency. They wouldn't be back until dinner time and Kathy would have the entire house all to herself until they got back. She could get loads of writing done with the five or six hours she had before her parents got back to the house. Kathy could have complete peace while cooking dinner, unlike she usually did when her parents Would shout from whatever room they were in that she was taking forever, along with multiple insults that would very likely shock having lunch with her charming parents that afternoon.Kathy was by no means the type for a Cinderella-complex-she hated self-pity - but sometimes Kathy had to hope that her beatRelated chapters
KATHERINE TRESPASSING
AUTHOR'S POVKatherine walked down the road at an easy pace as the chilly autumn wind rustled the multi-colored leaves of trees. She must have walked for nearly a mile and the fence lined with trees behind it still continued, with no apparent end in sight. There were signs nailed to it every few yards or so stating things like, ``STAY OUT!" or "TRESPASSERS WILL BE PERSECUTED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW OR SHOT UNTIL DEAD!" in big, bold black lettering.Katherine supposed she ought to have been intimidated by that but her curiosity was getting the better of her and she was just dying to see what was on the other side of the wooden fence.Katherine spotted a board in the fence that was loose. She pushed it aside and a small hole formed at the bottom in between the boards.Ignoring the fact that destruction of personal property was illegal and carried a fairly heavy punishment should she be caught, Katherine yanked the board off, and then another one after that
KATHERINE ROTTEN LUCK
AUTHOR’S POVIt can't be, Tyler thought in disbelief. It can't be her...Tyler refused to believe it was Katherine Scott's scent that he smelled on the crisp autumn wind - refused to believe that she had invaded his home as she had been invading his mind all day. She'd even made him lose it so much that he'd kissed her!When Katherine hadn't shown up to her next scheduled class, Tyler had been strangely worried, though at a loss as to why, so he had asked the teacher for a bathroom pass and made his way to Giselle's office. He had been furious when he'd heard that Giselle had suspended her, even if it was only for two days. After how bravely Katherine had stood up for that spineless geek she deserved a medal, not a suspension on her record. Giselle had explained her reasons for the suspension and how well Katherine had taken it, but that had only made Tyler even more furious.He hadn't stopped thinking about Katherine since. It seemed as though nothing coul
KATHERINE HOW TO TREAT A LADY?
AUTHOR’S POVTyler was taken aback by her sudden switch from deer-in-the-headlights to raging, ticked-off female.Maybe it was the fire in her eyes or the way she jutted her chin out rebelliously, or even the way she stood on her tiptoes to get in his face, but at that moment she was the most exquisite creature he'd ever laid eyes on.After some time Something inside him snapped, and his blood was like fire, releasing the animal within him.He picked Katherine up by the waist and threw her over his shoulder, caveman-style. Had he been more in control and in the mood for humor, he might have uttered an, "Ug!" but as it was he was barely sane at the moment."What the hell do you think you're DOING!?" Katherine screamed, hitting his back with her fists, surprising him when it hurt a little.When she started kicking, Tyler secured her legs by putting his arm around them. "Taking you into the house to wait for Giselle. She can deal with you," he said,
KATHERINE SOFIA
AUTHOR'S POV"Okay, let me get this straight: You want to be a professional writer, a career choice no one in your family supports, your parents are borderline abusive, your sister is a trampy diva, and your brother, who is away at college and only calls once every blue moon to vent about how crappy his life is and make sure your parents haven't driven you to insanity is your best and only friend. Have I got everything?" Sofia asked, sounding absolutely livid on Katherine’s behalf."Well... when you put it that way, it sounds kind of bad," Katherine said meekly."Oh, does it now?" Sofia said, rolling her eyes sarcastically, her bejeweled hand on her hip. "And don't think that I don't know you glazed over some stuff, because I do."Sofia raised her eyebrow at Katherine, silently daring her to deny it, but she couldn't."Look, it's not quite as bad as it sounds. And I'm okay, really. My life could be way worse," Katherine said, trying very hard
KATHERINE NEW JOB
AUTHOR’S POVAll three looked up to see Giselle standing at the doorway, much as Tyler had been, though looking anything but put out. In fact, she looked decidedly pleased to see Katherine and couldn't be bothered to take her eyes from her as she walked more fully into the room. She walked right past her other two favorites and wrapped Katherine in a motherly hug.This is getting to be a really bad habit with these people, Katherine thought wryly, never the one for much human contact."Hello, Katherine. How have you been since we last spoke this afternoon? Not upset, I hope?" Giselle asked, releasing Katherine and looked at her with a concerned expression."Um... I'm fine, I guess," Katherine said, looking bewilderedly between the three people in the room, who were, in turn, all staring at her.Tyler was the first to speak again."Giselle, have you gone mad? You know that she can't work here!""I believe it would be good for us
KATHERINE LIFE IN HAVEN
Katherine's first few days had gone smoothly. Tyler had been very relieved but he still believed it was only a matter of time before something happened.Giselle had been going to stay home from work to show her around the first day but Tyler had volunteered on the excuse that he really needed a day off from dealing with the "mindless, soulless corpses that walk the halls of Northview High," to which Katherine had replied with a sarcastic remark that made everyone but him laugh.Surprisingly, Giselle hadn't protested, and, though she seemed a little surprised, she also seemed pleased at his willingness to help Katherine. Sofia had wanted to stay home as well but Giselle had said that Tyler should be the one to show Katherine around, looking at Sofia with meaning that the younger woman seemed to understand immediately. Sofia and Giselle smiled conspiratorially at one another, and then looked at Tyler and Katherine. Katherine seemed creeped out, while Tyler was just irrit
KATHERINE SECRETS OF HAVEN
AUTHOR’S POVKatherine catching the plate had caught McDuffie by surprise, and now he no longer cared how loud he got."Now go and get me another sandwich, you worthless little chit," he shouted, rising in his seat a little to get in her face as much as he could.Katherine stared down at him calmly and coldly. The tension in the room rose as everyone waited to see what she would do, most of the guests hoping that she would just get him his sandwich rather than face him off. A great many of the guests had been won over by Katherine's easy smile and hard work, honest ethics, and nearly everyone in the room knew what McDuffie was capable of. Even the ones that didn't like her didn't want to see her blood spilled.No one noticed when one of the guests left the room.Someone called into the silence for her to just get him the sandwich, but she didn't seem to hear. All she did was stand... and stare, right at McDuffie. The silence loomed over the r
KATHERINE STRANGE EXPLANATIONS
AUTHOR'S POVFuzzy. That was the word Katherine would've used to describe her current state of mind as she laid on an uncomfortable surface of some kind. She couldn't remember getting into bed though -then again, she couldn't remember much of anything.Katherine's eyes snapped open as- in flashes -it all started to come back to her: The Haven, McDuffie, Tyler, wings, claws, fangs... And then that sickeningly sweet smell of blood in the air...Panic rose in Katherine's chest. She had to get out of there, she had to warn someone, do something!Katherine shot up on the bed, taking in her surroundings with shock. At first glance, she was in what appeared to be a shiny, metal room. At second glance though, it was very obviously a laboratory of some kind.Directly in front of her was a metal workbench piled high with books nearly in the middle of the room with a desk chair, while to her right was a door, a metal cabinet of some sort, and just beyond that
