A PAINFUL PAST.

Clary's POV.

“You know, if you've got something to say, then please do.” Reggie said, turning back to face me while holding a pan with one hand. “Looking at me that way won't help.”

“Oh really?” I said, with an edge to my voice. “You don't practice anymore? Or what was it you said? However, from what I saw back there, I think it's quite different.”

“Hey look, I know what you must be thinking right now.” he said, moving the pan over the fire from the cooker. “However, it's just like I said; I don't practice anymore. I just know a few spells to keep myself safe.”

“That's what you keep saying.” I said, using a measured tone as I slammed a hand on the table. “To me, it feels like you're using that as an excuse. For goodness’ sake, I almost lost my life back there.”

I pointed a finger towards the door.

“I mean, if you knew that you were going to do something like that, don't you think you should have told me about it beforehand?” I added, dropping my arm. “Y

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY–EIGHT — A MOTHER'S AFFECTION.

    Chapter 78.A MOTHER'S AFFECTION. Clary's POV.Standing in Mrs Johnson's room, I swept my eyes all over the place. Hanging on the walls were awards of different kinds, and a few portrait pictures. Some of them were Greg's, and others were hers, but there was no picture of her husband. Perhaps, they decided to do away with it because he was late. Meanwhile, I caught myself smiling as I glanced at a portrait of Greg as a kid with a baseball tucked in his armpit. “He really loved playing.” her voice broke in on my thoughts. I turned to her, but her gaze was on the picture. From the smile on her face, and the look in her eyes, I could tell that it was some special day for her. “So, what happened?” I asked, in a curious tone as I returned my attention to the picture. “Why didn't he get a chance to play?” “Oh well, the then coach said his body couldn't handle the physicality of the game.” she said, still smiling. “I pleaded with him, just so that Greg could join the team because baseb

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN — A SIMPLE INSTRUCTION.

    Chapter 77.A SIMPLE INSTRUCTION.Clary's POV.Yeah. I expected that too. You know, his hand suddenly looking fine and good as if it was never broken to begin with. If anything, Mrs Johnson had told me that she would fix it, but then I expected him to at least pretend that he was still hurt. Although it was his home, but it just didn't seem right for him to walk about acting like he was fine, even though he was. Perhaps, a bandage around the hand could have done the magic.“Hey, is there something wrong?” I asked, nudging Gracie in the arm discreetly. “You haven't touched your food yet.” Not just me, but I guess Mrs Johnson and Greg noticed but refused to say a thing about it.“It is nothing.” she said, wearing that smile that seemed to hide a little, but reveal a lot.Meanwhile, I was actually expecting her to say that. But hey? It's been minutes and all she's done so far is push her food round her plate. And it didn't seem like she would stop anytime soon. It was obvious that ther

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX — WEIRD!

    Chapter 76.WEIRD!Clary's POV.I sat on the couch, stood up, settled on it again, and then scrubbed my hands over my face. Thinking about it, I could have stopped her. I mean, I had the chance to do so, but I didn't. Or perhaps, it didn't cross my mind to do so. However, I should have just done something to stop her. I let out a deep, weighted sigh and pushed my fingers through my hair. Suddenly, a knock rattled the door. My heart skipped a beat. I turned, and glanced at the door for a few seconds. Could it be that she changed her mind already? The thought crossed my mind. I couldn't say exactly, but I had to find out myself. I got up from the couch, and walked to the door.As I gripped the knob, and opened the door, Gracie walked in. “What are you still waiting for?” she asked, raising a brow. “Aren't you going over to Mrs Johnson's for dinner? She asked you to come over, or didn't she?” I looked her at, then looked outside to know if Hayley was lurking around.“Is there somethi

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE — ALWAYS A STEP AHEAD.

    Chapter 75.ALWAYS A STEP AHEAD.Clary's POV.“You have no idea what you're saying, or what you're about to do.” I said, shaking my head with tears in my eyes. “If you bring that book to Eric, you'll be giving him what he wants. Trust me, you don't want to do that.” “Compared to having him torture, or get rid of me, I think that's a better idea.” she said, with ice in her voice. “Let's face the reality, Clary. Eric will stop at nothing until he gets that book, and you know that.” “Of course, I do.” I said, barely breathing the words. “Then give him what he wants!” she raised her voice.“I don't know where it is.” I said, using a measured tone.“Then look for it!” she yelled, righting herself from the couch. “Do something! You say that you're going to figure out a way for me and every other person close to you not to get hurt, but you know quite well that Eric is always a step ahead of everything you do, right?” “Look, I uhm, I understand how you feel Hayley.” I swallowed hard, and

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR — THE WRONG HANDS.

    Chapter 74.THE WRONG HANDS.Clary's POV.“Hayley… Hayley?” I tapped her on the shoulder. “Don't touch me if you won't tell me what's going on.” she said, her voice as hard as steel. “Just let me be.” Since the very moment Eric said those words, she'd been trying to understand what he meant, but I just didn't want to tell her. Don't get me wrong. I didn't just decide not to tell her, but I just didn't want her to get worried about it. Unfortunately, she had become more worried than I feared she would. To show how angry she was because I refused to tell her about it when she first asked at the grocery store, she left me there all by myself and began to head home alone. However, for the fear of her bumping into Eric on the way, I quickly returned the items which I didn't think I would be needing immediately, and paid for the ones I took, and hurried to catch up with her. Despite calling her from behind a few times, she didn't even look back. Instead, she walked faster so that I wou

  • THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA.   CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE — TICK TOCK! TICK TOCK!

    Chapter 73.TICK TOCK! TICK TOCK!Clary's POV.I knew it. I just knew that it had to be him. Turns out that I wasn't wrong about who I saw earlier. But why pretend like he actually came to get something when he only came to watch me? Perhaps, was he thinking that I would run away? If that was his thought, then he was wrong. I already ran away once, and I wouldn't make that same mistake again.However, It just didn't make any sense. Had he suddenly become jobless? Or was the pack of no interest to him anymore that he'd suddenly decided to follow me?“What do you think you're doing right now?” I asked, with an edge to my voice. “Is this some kind of joke or what?” “Joke?” he crinkled his face at the word. “Oh come on, Clary. You should know better that I won't joke with things like this. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong by trying to help you out. Besides, you're like a younger sister to me, or isn't that so?” As his words fell upon my ears, I laughed low in my throat. Younger s
