"How on earth am I supposed to merge marriage and school?" I thought burying my head in my books.
This all was beginning to sound like an impossible mission to me.I raised my head from my books and continued writing nonstop looking determined to finish the assignment, I was so scared of dozing off.A lot of times I had tried writing my assignment late at night only to find my head buried in my books the next morning with the assignment incomplete.Most times I continue writing once I wake up in the morning, other times when I wakeup late, I just abandon the books, dash into the bathroom, have a quick bath then I'm off to school, I end up trying to write it in school.You wouldn't blame me, if you were in my shoes you would understand exactly what I was going through.I continued writing making my hands move as fast as I could.Grace and Lora have observed how un steady I have been with my assignments and I didn't want to give them more reasons toAs the party drew to a close and everyone dispersed to their respective homes, I trudged upstairs to my room. With heavy steps, I kicked off my shoes and collapsed onto my bed, succumbing to tears that flowed freely.Staring at the engagement ring adorning my finger, I felt a surge of despair. With a trembling hand, I removed it and flung it into a nearby drawer. I couldn’t bear the thought of facing my friends and classmates with such a symbol of entrapment on my finger.Standing by the window, I took a deep breath, attempting to compose myself and wipe away the tears threatening to spill. The weight of my parents’ expectations bore down on me heavily, knowing that their desires for me would only lead to a lifetime of misery.The door creaked open, and my father entered the room. I turned to face him, my heart sinking at the sight of him.“Father…” I whispered, unable to hide my anguish.He smiled warmly, a rare expression on his face. “You did exceptionally well tonight, daughter. I
Standing at the doorway, I hesitated for a moment before entering the room and closing the door behind me. I didn’t want any other wolves to stumble upon the scene, knowing it would raise alarms if my mother was caught using magic on my father.“What happened to him, Mother?” I asked, my voice trembling with fear. Despite my complicated feelings toward my father, I couldn’t bear the thought of any harm befalling him.My mother let out a sigh. “Just help me get him onto the bed.”My heart pounded in my chest as I asked the question that plagued my mind. “Is he dead?”My mother’s eyes widened at the question. “No, he’s not, Yvonne. He’s just asleep.”I scrutinized my father’s still form, uncertain if my mother’s assurance was genuine. “Are you sure, Mother? He looks so… rigid.”“Don’t be a baby, Yvonne,” she chided gently, her tone betraying a hint of impatience. “Help me get him onto the bed before anyone else comes in here.”Nodding silently, I approached my father’s side, and together
He got to his room and lay straight on the bed meditating on the boredom that had enveloped his day.The thought of Yvonne's beautiful eyes staring at his face when he caught her from falling made him laugh "she's really cute, I can't deny that I actually blushed, but that's not why I'm here."His phone started ringing.He sat up at once reaching into his pocket as he picked the call."Hello Anne" He greeted."Hey.. What happened today at school Alexander? I heard some dude lied about you all" she said sounding upset.He shrugged "well no one said he was lying against us, at least half of the students in Latan university testified against us.""What? Why did they do that?" Anne asked."I guess Larry and his friends have them under their sleeves" he answered putting the phone on loud speaker as he started pulling off his shirt."Gush! I'm really so sorry about that" she said in a sweet tone.Alexander smiled "you don't need to apologi
Alexander laughed "Anne has nothing to offer me so I definitely want nothing from her either, don't tell me you don't trust your own brother Drake."Drake shook his head "of course I don't trust you brother, you don't dedicate your time to women expect they have something you want, now I have been beginning to wonder what you're up to with that missy."Alexander laughed "maybe I just want to turn her into my puppet, drain her at will and compel her to forget afterwards, great right?.""That's madness! Absolutely ridiculous!" Drake yelled."Then what do you call your random sucking of blood and compelling them to forget about it?" Alexander fired back."At least they don't know me, I have never confessed love to them so it's not betraya, they just fell a prey and I fed on them" Drake said in anger."Well mine isn't betrayal, I just want to have one source of blood, is that too difficult to ask?" Alexander asked widening his eyes.Drake stared at him
We arrived at the school hall, where Larry and his friends were already present, sporting bandages on their faces and various parts of their bodies. Two other teachers, including our head of department, were seated there, making it a total of three authority figures present.“Larry and his friends claim that you all attacked them this morning when they arrived at school,” one of the teachers stated, addressing us.Alexander scoffed, running his hand through his hair. “Seriously? Is this why we were all called out here?”The head of department raised his brow. “Yes, that is why you were summoned.”“How could you all attack your fellow students like this?” the female teacher asked, her tone disapproving.“I just hate liars. They’re all lying. They instigated it,” Lora interjected, her frustration evident.“If they truly started it, why didn’t you report it first?” the other male teacher questioned.“We didn’t report it because our studies are more important than dealing with a group of b
I took a deep breath, the conversation was finally over.Kayne stood to his feet "I just wonder what you're hiding at school.""What's that supposed to mean?" I fired back looking upset.I wasn't ready to give him a single chance to make any negative comment about me or suspect me of anything."I just don't understand why my fiancee would say no to me, I only asked for a date, not that I asked you to kiss me or something" he said in anger.I folded my arms "Kayne I said no, I don't want that, is that too hard for you to understand?"His eyes popped out in fury "now I'm so sure their is something you are hiding! You don't want me to see your numerous boyfriends at school huh?""What??" I couldn't believe what my ears just heard."You heard me Yvonne! I wasn't really serious about the date of a thing, I just wanted to know your reaction, everyone already noticed that you don't like me neither do you want to marry me but listen to me young lady,
Alexander walked into their apartment, his forehead sweaty as he slumped onto the couch. “I can’t believe I wasted an entire day because of a human,” he grumbled. Drake chuckled. “Embarrassing, isn’t it? Some days can be like that. I only wish I had hit them harder.” “I didn’t even lay a finger on him or any of them. What’s his problem with me?” Alexander asked, frustration evident in his tone. “I heard he has a crush on Yvonne Brooks,” Drake replied, a sly smile playing on his lips. Alexander scoffed. “Now it’s getting interesting, isn’t it?” Drake moved to the refrigerator, laughing. “I know where we can find him. Maybe we can ask him if he’s ever been to a psychiatrist hospital.” Alexander shook his head. “Not yet, brother. If anything were to happen to them now, we’d be the prime suspects. Let him enjoy his victory for now.” “We could make it look like an accident,” Drake suggested, chuckling. Alexander shook his head again. “Let’s not be too hasty, brother.” Drake gulped
Her aunt grabbed her arm. “I know why you’re here, but just make sure you don’t bring any trouble my way, or I won’t hesitate to deny being your guardian.” Anne chuckled. “You don’t have to worry about anything, Aunt. I’ll do my job slowly and quietly and vanish before anyone understands what’s happened. If you don’t mind, I have work to do.” Her aunt tightened her grip. “Bringing boys to my house was never part of what you came for, was it?” “It’s a gradual process. I’m only playing the cards the right way, just to save your ass while I’m gone. Or do you want it the rough way?” Anne retorted. Her aunt was speechless as Anne snatched her arm away. “I guess not. So allow me to do this my own way and quit monitoring me.” Her aunt scoffed. “Who said I’m monitoring you, Anne?” “Oh, yes, you are. Stop it. I know exactly what I’m doing,” Anne shot back. Her phone rang, and she picked it up. “Hey, Alex, you called back.” “Sure, will you be at the bar today?” Alexander asked. “Of cour
