The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. William Shakespeare,
Laena watched until the car disappeared from her view and the smile on her face fell. She clenched her fist into a ball and bit hard on her inner cheeks to draw blood. Feeling the metallic taste of blood in her mouth. She spat the blood mixed with saliva on the ground before shutting her eyes for a moment to regain some calm. When she opened her eyes again, the usual sweet smile was back on her face.Laena turned around and started walking back to the castle. She made her way through the long passage and climbed her way up the stairs to the second floor. She went through another passage before she arrived at the pack's kitchen. "Good morning miss" the maids greeted in unison upon seeing Laena enter the kitchen.''Good morning ladies. What are you making for breakfast" Laena asked with the sweetest smile."We have bacon, mushrooms, beans, eggs and the porridge is almost done" Aliyah told Laena, her eyes focused on the pot of porridge she was stirring."I see" Laena walked over to the t
Clara, who had ended the call with her friends, was now resting on one of the sofas in her living room, feeling a lot better after talking with her friends. After a while, her eyelids became heavy, as a result of last night's sleeplessness. Clara Closed her eyes to take a quick nap when the doorbell rang but she tried to ignore it and continue with her sleep but the bell kept ringing.Clara rose from the sofa, walking towards the door to see who it was. No one came to visit her except for her new friend Melanie and Skyler, which Clara already guessed was the latter.She opened the door and Skyler was there on her front porch with his back facing her. He turned around when he sensed her. Clara felt her heart skip a beat when he turned around to face her. He was breathtaking and handsome such that Clara found herself staring shamelessly at him. She knew he was good looking but seeing him right now with his hair neatly combed into a man bun along with his neatly cut beards and not to men
Skyler kept staring at her, words failed him. He tried to speak but nothing came out. He had good knowledge of the wailing fairies but never had he heard of something like this. Only seer's are known to possess such abilities but she wasn't a seer. Skyler had his own theory but he decided to keep it to himself for now. He would do more finding to be sure."Is that all?".He asked her. I want to know everything.Clara shook her head but kept quiet. She bit her lips unsure whether to tell him or not. But Clara opened her mouth and told him '' the last dream I had about you was..was kinda strange". She bit down on her lips looking down at the floor " I found you laying on the floor unmoving, your body was cold as ice". Recalling the dream brought a frown to her face. She could still remember the pain that stabbed through her heart when she found him dead. It felt rain and she almost lost herself to that dream Seeing the frown on Clara's face, Skyler could already tell that the dream was a
Skyler made his way through the long passage and up the stairs, turning to the left side of another passage that led to Cressida's chamber. The guards on duty bowed their heads in respect as he approached the door to her chamber. Skyler raised his hands to knock when the door cracked open and one of the pack's maids stood in front of him. "Good evening Alpha" said the maid, she stepped aside to give way for him and Skyler made his way Into the room.Skyler walked into the living room and at the same time, Cressida walked out of the inner room into the living room. Both their eyes met and a doting smile formed on the woman's face. Skyler closed the distance between them and Cressida spread her arms wide to bring Skyler in for a hug, wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug and her smile widened even more."Hmm.. you are crushing me" said Skyler with a strangled voice."Oh shut up" Cressida smiled, releasing Skyler for her tight hug." Come '' She said as she held his hand and led him
Next morning, Clara woke up feeling refreshed. Getting up from the bed, she made her way to the desk where her handbag laid. She opened the bag and fished out the paper that had her class schedules. She had lectures by 8am and it was already 7 in the morning. She dashed into the bathroom and in less than 5 minutes she came out of the bathroom. 20 minutes later, Clara was set for school, taking her hand bag and laptop. She made her way out of her apartment. She spotted the familier car that belonged to her friend Melanie and she quickly walked in that direction. For someone who had a stalker tendency, Clara wasn't surprised to see the car. What surprised her was that the girl hadn't come to bother her for the past few days and she wondered why. As she came closer to the car. Clara took note of the girl's beautiful hazel eyes that stayed hidden behind the glasses, her curly brown hair rested just below her shoulders.Clara could not help but wonder why anyone would bully a person like h
Until Lucas turned around and found her walking behind them" are you trying to sneak up on us?" He asked.Laena gave a nervous laugh before quickening her footsteps to catch up with them. She said,"No, I'm heading to the pack house. father called me". Then she turned her head sideways to look at Skyler and she noticed the tiny cut on his knuckles that hadn't completely healed. She asked " are you alright, Alpha?".Skyler gave her a quick nod while looking ahead of him. Seeing how the Alpha paid no attention to her, Laena bit her inner lips and didn't try to push any further as she could already sense that he wasn't in a good mood but then he was never in a good mood once it came to her.On reaching the castle. Skyler was informed that there would be a council meeting in the hall later and he needed to be present. Skyler made his way to his quarters and prepared himself both mentally and physically for the meeting. He already had a guess of what would be the topic of discussion.******
Skyler stormed out of the meeting hall with anger. He made his way to his quatres but stopped half way, he was too furious right now to go anywhere so he turned around and started to make his way out of the castle and walked into the wood where he shifted into his black wolf and sprintedBack in the meeting room. The elders were still seated as they continued to discuss other matters regarding the pack. Lucas looked at the exit of the room where Skyler had just stormed off. His eyes went back to look at the people in the room. He rose to his feet and cleared his throat, getting the attention of everyone that was present in the room. He said."I know that we are having a cold war with the other creatures of the earth. But has anyone stopped for a moment and thought that this could be the reason why the moon goddess has paired the Alpha with another creature. Maybe this is a sign for us to stop the enmity and embrace peace. I mean, can anyone remember the reason we are at war with the ot
The young man gave Clare a slight nod and Clara returned it with a small smile. Clara was drawn to him. How Strange. Clara went back to eating her food but she was lost somewhere in her thoughts. Something was different about the young man. She felt the same attraction she had for Skyler with this person. And why?. She questioned herself. It wasn't possible, was it?. Clara shook her head not wanting to think in that direction. Still she couldn't stop herself from sneaking glances at this very young man. He was handsome and well built but all of his appearances would pale in comparison to Skyler. Clara shut her eyes for a moment. This was crazy. Why the comparison?. She shook her head. This was indeed very crazy. Clara put down her cutlery and politely excused herself from the dining room. She needed to get away from there as she wasn't sure what exactly was wrong with her. The people watched Clara leave the dining room before going back to eat the food in front of them.*****Meanwhi
