The Catch"Dad!"He had gone silent over the phone, not saying a word. "Dad!!"I repeated. "Yes?"His voice was cold."You didn't respond to my question."My curiosity was getting the best of me."What question? I couldn't hear the last statement you made, I think the service went bad,"He lied.It was happening again, just like at home when he acted like he saw a ghost the moment he laid eyes on that frame, he was getting cold feet over the same topic.If Dad wasn't going to tell me what I needed to know, I would have to find out for myself."It's nothing, Dad,"I said in a low voice. "It's probably the service playing tricks on us."Since he wasn't going to tell me anything, how about I also act clueless."Alright Dad,"I wanted to rap up the futile conversation. "I have a class now, talk to you later.""Okay Ella, and Ella"He pushed, "Be careful."I could have sworn there was fright in his voice. "Yes, Dad."I hung up and walked straight to class.*****The woods closed in on me as I cont

Chapter 12

In Denial. "Al..pha…"I typed on my laptop and read through, scanning each word as I took in the truth. I was still in a whirlwind of emotions from last night's discovery. My eyes were sore and swollen, I had cried on my way back, running and not looking back. I soaked myself in water every 15 minutes to see if the terrible dream I had just experienced would go away, but it was too real to call off. How could Nico be a werewolf? He didn't look like a person capable of murder. And then Garry and Lola?? I placed my hands on my chest gently rubbing it. The truth was too much to bear. "What are you doing?"Ariana raised her head from her bed. I quickly shut my laptop and replied in secrecy "Nothing." "Why are you up so early,"she yawned and stretched. "So I could study in peace,"My voice gave away the need for privacy and I was hoping Ariana was going to understand that. "Okay, nerd,"She went back to sleep. I turned back to my laptop and read through the words again for the milli

Chapter 13

I know all that you know.I took a deep breath and walked into the patient room. It was hard coming in to see him considering how tight the security was at the door. The school authorities were still trying to do their job by protecting him. The guards made sure they emptied your bags and searched every little thing you were taking into the room. My flowers almost got ripped off their stems.But I was happy they finally let me through. I stood close to his bed and examined his body. He was healing thankfully, but they were still part of his body that was bandaged."Hi"I finally spoke "I am Ella. You probably don't know me, but I attend the same college as you.""Yeah, I figured. I am Drew"he smiled and said in a low tone. "Students have been buzzing in here like bees."he chuckled a little and held his chest in pain.I rushed further and placed my hand on his bed "Please be careful."He was still able to make little jokes after what he went through."I brought this for you,"I stretched

Chapter fourteen

My heart pounded like a drum against my ribs, I stood before Nico, my gaze unwavering as I dropped the bombshell that threatened to shatter his carefully constructed world. Nico's eyes widened in disbelief, his mouth agape as his mind struggled to process the revelation. He had guarded his secret fiercely, cloaking himself in a veil of normalcy, but my words had torn through his carefully constructed façade, exposing the truth that he had longed to keep hidden.A wave of shock washed over Nico, momentarily rendering him speechless. He stared at me, his mind reeling, unable to comprehend how I had discovered his secret. I sensed his turmoil and decided to break the silence."What happened?" I asked softly, my eyes filled with empathy. He looked at me like he didn't understand the direction of my question."How did you guys turn out like this? Why do you guys kill? Do you eat people? How do you guys transform?" I paused to digest his downcast mood. "I have so many questions."Nico remai

Chapter Fifteen

My question hung in the air, heavy with unspoken weight. Nico stared at me, his eyes wide with surprise. I could feel him freeze on his seat, and his heart pounding like a drum against his ribs. The silence felt like it would never end, and I braced myself for his next reply."I have... I have hurt people," Nico confessed, his voice barely a whisper. "I have hurt them in the past when I couldn't control my instincts."He closed his eyes like the memories were flooding back, vivid and painful. I could only imagine his first transformation, the uncontrollable rage, the bloodlust that had driven him to lash out."But I'm not that person anymore," he continued, his voice gaining strength. "I've learned to control myself. I would never hurt anyone intentionally."My eyes met his, searching for truth in their depths. I saw the pain, the remorse, the desperate desire to be seen as more than just a monster. I believed him, I didn't know why but I did."Is that why you reacted that way the oth

Chapter sixteen

A feeling of Nostalgia12 years ago… in Trento"Baby baby don't cry, don't you know there's someone who loves you and watches over you""Baby baby don't cry, you are more beautiful when you smile."Mom was the most beautiful person I knew, she had a soothing voice and the prettiest smile. I watched her sing to me as my shrugging shoulders eased from a long-lasting sob. I had misplaced my doll in the rain and ran to mom with eyes full oftears."It's okay Caro mio," she wiped off the fluid travelling down my nose. "Hush now baby, I would get another doll."My sobs ceased and I looked up at Mom, wiping away my tears with the back of my hand."You want me to get you another?" She asked me with glitter in her eyes. I nodded, inhaling the fluid back into my nose."Okay baby, then don't cry anymore." She lifted me and placed a kiss on my cheeks."Daddy is going to take it from here while I head to work," Mom called out for Dad who came running down the stairs and lifted me away from Mom."

Chapter Seventeen

Behind the shadows Proud jocks, flying cheerleaders, athletes who wanted to split their guts, joggers and stand-up comedians. The building was filled with the likes of different students from different schools."Woah!!" Claire exclaimed, "This is truly one way to take a vacation." Her eyes brimming with happiness.It was only natural for Claire to feel like she was in heaven here, both she and Ariana loved the outdoor life. Unlike me…"So there would be a pairing of three," one of the instructors said. "Pick your partners and move forward to the table by your right and pick your keys."The rush came, and everyone hurried to pick their favourite. I was clustered by Ariana and Claire, whom I didn't find any issues with. Then my eyes moved away from their smiley faces and met Lola's. She stood alone while others picked and moved past her to pick people close to her.A replay of high school played before my eyes. Somehow, I had found my way in Tulane, and even though not everyone liked

Chapter Eighteen

What we don't chase sometimes chases us3 weeks ago….. Leaving the premises of the school to come to stay with Dad was the best decision I had made. The stress was relieved and my worries were gone, well…some of them.The group chat I had created for my research a few weeks back was still functioning. The messages came in tons, the victory report of our research. We passed, and everyone was happy, everyone except Nico. Because he couldn't complete the research, he was given a D minus.I scrolled up in search of his name so I could send in a private message, but my hands stopped typing at the remembrance of who he was."It won't hurt your pride to call him," Nanny must have noticed me toying with my phone and debating with my mind. I pulled my gaze away from the empty can't and looked at Nanny."Call you?" I had no idea where Nanny was driving at."The man that has made you moody since you came in, the man that has you checking your phone every minute and every second, the man you ar

Chapter Nineteen

Try to hideWith a mix of urgency and apprehension, Nico guided me away from the prying eyes of his nemesis who might be hiding somewhere in the crowd. He sought refuge in a secluded clearing area."How do you know about werewolf hunters?" Nico asked, his voice barely a whisper.My eyes held a mixture of fear and determination. "I don't. You just mentioned now that they are one of the people who might hurt your kind." I moved closer to him so no one else heard me. "There has been a man watching your movements, his presence casting a shadow of unease."Nico's mind raced, and his eyes began to confirm his darkest fears. I could feel his heart pound up against his ribs, a drumbeat of anticipation and dread."What do these hunters want? And how can they hurt you?" I asked, my voice trembling slightlyNico's eyes narrowed, his mind recalling the demise of his kind who were before them. "To eradicate us from the earth," he answered. "They see us as nothing but beasts to be chained and kille

Chapter Twenty

The air was electric with excitement as Ariana and I greeted Claire with congratulatory hugs and cheers, we couldn't be more proud of her. We spent the next few hours celebrating Claire's success, sharing stories and laughter."Yours was the greatest Claire," Ariana praised Claire's painting. "I would totally buy it in an exhibition."Claire had a face of gratitude "Oh Ariana, you are really something." She hugged Ariana and they both chuckled."Congratulations again Claire," I said, holding her hands. "We are very happy for you. Did you see that tall guy that looked like he was going to paint the entire arena if he was allowed to?" I asked amused.They laughed out "Yes I saw him," Ariana said in-between a laugh. "He really wore so much confidence, like his father was part of the judges."We all laughed again. "Well boo..to him then," Claire raised her medal in victory, and we went in for a last hug."Tomorrow they will meet a 21st-century Whitney Houston," Ariana praised herself as w
