Over beers

Ice saw and heard snippets . He even saw how hurt Allie was and how her mother left the trailer that they call a home in a hurry. He was not able to listen to what led to that and he secretly hoped he came earlier. Whatever they were arguing about could be useful for him. Right now, he would take what ever ammunition he could have as leverage for his mission. The image of fighting offspring and a parent reminded him of himself. His father and Ice had a very rocky relationship. They live under one roof but barely see each other and if they see each other, one was either too tired or in no mood for a small talk. Never the perfect combination. “Parents...hmf...and they want their kids to treat them like they owe them everything.And...that is where they live? That is a terrible place to live!”Ice was raised in a comfortable setting and living in a trailer van made him cringe a little. The heiress was made to live there while she had an entire manor at her disposal! He was well hidden b

The return

Ice’s POVBarbara chugged the bottle of beer like it was water. I have seen a lot of British women drink but this one is hardcore. She was consuming the entire bottle in one go. Even Pierre looked in awe judging by the slightly dropped jaw.I felt him lean in and whisper, “sir, what exactly is going on here? In my opinion, this doesn’t fit in the job description that your father told me about.”I agree with him. First, I was told to baby sit and now I am in a bar that reeked and accompanying a woman who could have been my mother’s age to what---? probably drown her sorrows with the help of the oldest beverage in the book.She frowned at us, I nearly forgot that this woman had just taken down a full grown wolf and left without a scratch or break down a sweat. “I heard you.”Pierre froze. “T-that’s not what I meant.”“Yeah, who are you kids trying to deceive here? I may be as old as your parents but I am mot dumb.” She started to become teary-eyed. “Well, maybe I am. And now my daugh

Must be a joke

Ember’s POV:So that’s how it’s going to be now? Do I even have the right to ask questions? To rant? To vent out my feelings from all these? I can’t believe that my whole life is a lie!I heard footsteps from the front. That’s so freaking strange. I’ve been feeling a little bit off for the past few days. From where I was curled into a ball, I saw my mother and a young man who looked relatively familiar. My eyes couldn’t see him very well because he had his back turned from where I was but his smell, oh…it’s so strong and sexy..what the…?“...you made her live here?” His disgusted voice said to my mother.“Hey, this is a pretty decent place. Besides what do you expect?” Mom replied to him in her annoyed voice.“Barbara, that’s a lame excuse.”Wow, they’re on first name basis now. How did my mother came to know this guy with thick British accent and sexy scent when I haven’t seen him anywhere? Or, a theory formed in my head, my mother is not a helpless handicap, right? So, maybe…she’s

Leaving the past behind

Allie laughed uncontrollably. She can tell that her mother had a drink with the stranger who came to destroy her peaceful life. But surely, her mother is not drunk enough to come up with preposterous ideas that they are wolves.She’s a child of science. Top one in her class and hearing her mother talk of nonsense was stupid. “Mom, did you have a drink?”Barbara blushed, “Yes…”“No wonder you are talking like this.” Allie rose and started to rummage on the small cupboard in search of a pot, “I am making you tea. This does not mean that I am no longer mad at you.”Barbara smiled. Allie had always been compassionate.Her anger is short-lived and now that she’s calmer, she’s beginning to see things clearly. On her mother’s point of view. In order for her to understand what she’s not comprehending at the moment, she had to try and just do that.After all, what is there to lose?“Sit.”“Allie…” Barbara sat on the bed that used to be the bed where she spent most of her days when Allie believe

Barbara's fighting skills

Allie’s POV:Ice held my hand and I took it back almost immediately. My mom saw it and I waited for her facial expression to change from not caring to glaring at me. She was very particular when it comes to boys even back then.His last statement made an impact on me. He came inside the trailer and asked me and mom to hurry up. To basically abandon the place I grew up in and I had no idea where he was going to take us or if we are even safe with him. Because, honestly right now, I don’t feel safe with him around. This man popped out of nowhere and made my life topsy turvy.I know for a fact that the last thing I want to happen was to be with him alone because of the strong pull I feel for this man.“More people who want me? But why?”“Candy! Let’s go!” Mom yelled to my used-to-be-neighbor-now-aunt Candy as we scrammed to get the most valuable possessions we have despite Ice’s warning. “Get your fat a** here!”“I am coming!”We were on our way to the luxurious black car. “Pierre, to th
