I thought my heart was going to burst out into pieces with the way it drummed painfully. my breathing seems uneven as I try to get a grip on myself. the man that stood in front of me a while ago had me frozen on the spot. His dark eyes bored into me like he couldn’t stand the sight of me. the only thing that remained consistent in his words that I could process was if I happened to be a spy. Wouldn’t my life be great if truly I was a spy?
ClaraI practically fell on my knees scraping it against the rough ground when I got to him. My scream must have gotten the attention of Calvin and Derek. I felt their shadow around me.“Alex? Alex, please say something?” I sobbed, picking him off the ground onto my thigh.“Let’s get him to the clinic.” Calvin offered, bending to take him off my hand.Just then Alex opened his eyes abruptly, showing off his fine dentition.“Tada!” He exclaimed, jumping to his feet. “I knew you were going to be shocked. So nice to see you worried, I thought you said you didn’t care about me?” He questioned, laughing.“Alex! Why would you do that? When will you quit being so silly? You scared me!” I rebuked, fighting back the smile tugging at my lips.Alex grinned sheepishly and kissed
ClaraMy palms feel sweaty. Even though I have been working for days on the herbs and hoping it comes out well,I can’t shake off the feeling that it might not be good enough. Different trials have been done and most were a mess. I finally got a bit that seems like it might work and I can’t sit still. I had texted Derek to come take a look and have a feel of the products to be sure I am on the right track. I kept glancing at the entrance in wait for him.I had baked some cookies alongside the skincare lotion I made. Both of them infused with herbs and Kade it set up in front of the clinic. I probably didn’t need to go this far since it is just him. But I remember my mum always saying whatever one has to do, doing it well is all that counts.Janet placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. “You don’t have to be so worked up. It is only the first production and I think you did a good job. Whateve
Calvin“What happened to your thumb?” Mum asked, reaching for the hand to take a look at it.I eased it out of her grip gently. “I am fine. It was just a slight wound.”“How can you call that slight when it looks this serious?”I chuckled, if only she had seen it when it was still fresh. Since it wasn’t bandaged I had called Janet when the sun came up. She had only wrapped it up saying Clara already did a good job. Playfully asking if I doubt Clara’s ability to do a clean treatment. I wasn’t sure if doubt is what I feel or I am just being stubborn to admit to it because I fear it would mean I am accepting her as my mate. But then, sharing the workshop with her lately makes me feel slightly different about her.During the early hours of today when I arrived at the workshop and she wasn’t there I found myself glancing back
ClaraMy head ached from the incessant hit of the hammer on the nail. I could barely sleep because my body didn’t feel right and I hoped working on the herbs since I was nearing a positive result would make me feel better and I would finally get to sleep. But fate seems to have something against my peace of mind. Not only did I find my nemesis in the workshop, but he seems to be on a rage trip. Taking it all out on the woods. Calvin has split several woods in two, dumping them on the ground and reaching for another one. He wouldn’t stop hitting until they are too weak to take on his hammering blows.“fuck!” he cursed, kissing his teeth in irritation.I shook my head at the sight, he had slammed the hammer on his thumb and it looked like it was shattered, coated in his own blood. That thumb is definitely fractured. I sucked my teeth in disbelief, he is quite character I have to give him that. Just
Calvin“aunt Janice!” I bellowed, closing up the space between us while mum called out to me from behind.No one understands why I do not like her being around, they think I am just being too much when the truth is that she is a bad influence to keep close. All my life, I have seen my mother play small for aunt janice to shine. Just because she was the reason my parents met and mum wasn’t on the same status as my dad. her father was a merchant and that doesn’t seem to be enough for my aunt. She always puts her down, projecting her insecurities on my mother and she also always the nonsense to happen all because she regards her as my dad’s sister. Not to mention a major part of the royal household.This has gone on for years and got worse after my dad’s death. I saw her deception a long time ago, which is why I have never hesitated to call her out on her bullshit. But my mum will beg on
Calvin“you can quit staring.” My wolf drawled.I scoffed, keeping my eyes on the wood that I was working on. “why would you think I am staring at her?”“I only told you to quit. Didn’t mention who you were looking at.” He retorted.I kissed my teeth in irritation knowing what he was trying to do. Its already morning, the sun is all out in its glory and I cant believe I have been on my toes since the middle of the night. My ego must have gotten the best of me seeing how I refused to back away just because she was working. Despite the evident exhaustion on her face and the failed trials at whatever it is she was putting together, I knew that from her mumblings to herself. Clara didn’t stop working, she kept on until she achieved a bit of success and that seemed to be her final call to take a break.I should have left a while ago. But
