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

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
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO — THE DEVIL YOU KNOW!
Chapter 72.THE DEVIL YOU KNOW!Clary's POV.I pushed the trolley towards the counter to get the bill for everything that I'd picked from the grocery racks. As I walked in between the racks, I raked my eyes up and down with a smile.Although, I would have loved to pick some other items, but I knew quite well that I didn't have enough money for it. In fact, I couldn't say if the money I had with me was enough to pay for the items in the trolley. In the meantime, as I got to the counter, I stopped to allow the attendant put together everything that I'd picked. While she was at it, I looked back again at the items that I would have loved to have in my trolley. I sighed. Suddenly, from the other end, I noticed a figure walk past the rack. My heart shook. Whoever it was looked like Eric. To be certain, I took a step, and then another. However, as I was about to go further, I felt someone grip me. I turned back, and realized that it was Hayley.“What is going on?” she asked, looking towa
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE — SAFER WITH ME THAN ALONE.
Chapter 71.SAFER WITH ME THAN ALONE.Clary's POV.I just knew that I had to do something else they wouldn't leave. However, I must say that I was fortunate not to have been caught that I was only faking a call to the cops. If I had been caught, then Browne would have figured that Hayley was lying. Meanwhile, she remained silent. Although, they were long gone, but it seemed like she was yet to recover from the shock that their presence brought to her and I could understand that.“Hey, are you alright?” I asked, settling on the couch. “It is fine; they are gone now, and they won't be returning any time soon. Besides, you did a good job back there.” “I recall that seal.” she said, with tears in her eyes. “It's my father's.” “I know that you do.” I said, with a smile, as I stroked her hair gently. “However, if you had said that, then you would have been taken away. That was why I asked you to pretend like you haven't seen it.” “He said that my father is dead.” she said, blinking back
