Chapter 10
“So I wanted to find out if you knew about it and kept it from me too” she said further
“Could this be a trap or something, or was she using him to find out the truth about Audrey’s real identity?” he thought out loud.
He thought he was saying things in his mind not knowing he had said that out loud and she heard but she denounced it and told him that it was Audrey himself that told her he was a werewolf.
It then dawned on him that it could be the reason why she was behaving weird in the restaurant the other time. He decided to answer all her questions as she seemed anxious about it.
“Yes I am a werewolf” He said.
“It’s funny how Audrey told you about him and never mentioned my name” he mentionedmAll text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
” We go way back, I mean Audrey and I we come from a long lineage of werewolves ” he said.
” And yes, to effectively answer your question, I knew Audrey was a werewolf.”
“Wow” she said and sighed, ” I don’t even know what to make of this” she stated.
” Why did you guys decide to keep it from me? Do you think I won’t associate with you guys because you were werewolves?” she said.
“Audrey wanted to tell you from the first time you guys stayed together but he didn’t want to freak you out that’s why he decided to keep it to himself, besides you guys didn’t meet on good terms’ ‘ he said.
She smiled and remembered the first time she met him, it was at a club and he sent someone to give her a bottle of champagne which she rejected, he wanted to win her by showing he had money and she wasn’t buying any of it.
“He loves you, that’s why he opened up to you and you would surely make a good mate for him” he said and smiled.
“Mate?” She asked.
“Ooh yes there’s every chance you guys will be mated if you already aren’t” he replied.
None of this made sense to her so he wasn’t going to tell him that she had become a werewolf just yet, she didn’t want to believe it either. Low key she enjoyed every bit of the spice Audrey brought to her life but she liked the fact that she didn’t get to make a choice in any of the decisions he had made.
“He should have just told me sooner,” she said.
She then mentioned that she was going to meet his parents, that he offered to take her to his parents, so she accepted it. He said it was a fantastic idea that it’s better she goes to meet with his parents. They know better and they know if she was going to be a good match for him.
She further mentioned that his mum was dead so she should be careful how she calls the name around because it still affects them till date, the manner at which she was killed was so sad.
” Yeah I forgot to mention, I also had a dream where I was in the forest and I saw three wolves standing at the opposite side looking at me and another wolf was beside me. The three wolves were speaking in a language I didn’t understand and they were deep inside a very big forest and I was lying on the floor”. She said
He knew what the dream meant but he wasn’t going to interpret the dream for her, only Audrey’s parents and Audrey himself could do justice to that.
He told her he didn’t know what the dream meant.
” He then told her it would be best if she hears it from Audrey and it is important for her to go see his parents.
Unknown to him, she already knew that he was avoiding answering her questions so she didn’t probe him further.
They called it a day and decided to go to their various hostels and dormitories.
On getting to her dormitory, she picked up her phone and called Audrey letting him know her decision to visit his hometown to visit his parents
The next day, the sound of Stephanie’s alarm woke her up, she grumbled because she wasn’t ready to come out of bed, she quickly put off her alarm and went back to sleep. Few minutes later her sleep was rudely interrupted by a heavy knock on the door.
“Who’s there?” she said.
“Open the door, you skunk” the stranger replied.
“Just say who you are and stop stressing me” Stephanie said in anger.
“So you are telling me you can’t recognize my voice, this woman,” the stranger replied.
She then realized that it was her best friend knocking at the door.
She then stood up and opened the door immediately she hissed and went to lie down back on her bed.
“Are you angry at me?” Miracle asked.
“No I’m supposed to be smiling at you” she replied.
“I was going through the worst night of my life and you had the mind to go on a date with a man, what if he was also a werewolf?” she continued.
Mirabel burst out into laughter because she didn’t know her best friend to be this jealous.
“What’s funny?” She said.
“Nothing” Miracle replied, ” so out of every bothering you is the fact that I might have gone out with a werewolf that is affecting you”.
“By the way what’s all these talk about werewolves, I know your man is one, don’t tell me he has turned you into one” Miracle continued.
She didn’t know how to tell her best friend that she has been turned into one so she shrugged off the statement and changed the topic.
“So how are you, how did your date go?”
“Is this one of the dates that will leave you brokenhearted and single again?” She laughed and said,
“So does that mean you are not angry with me any longer” Mirabel asked.
“Well you are forgiven, you didn’t know I was going to visit anyway” Stephanie said.
They talked on end for hours and hours before Stephanie burst out that she was leaving New York for Cleveland, Ohio.
Mirabel asked her why she was leaving, she told her that she had to see Audrey’s parents. She needed a concrete explanation of everything that was happening to her and her body.
Mirabel wondered why she needed an explanation when everything that happened is obvious to her.
” I don’t understand why you need explanation , it’s clear to the blind you met a guy, you liked him , you fell in love but now there’s a stumbling block he’s a werewolf which you aren’t comfortable with, so just end things with him” Mirabel said.
But Stephanie was having none of that. ” It’s easier for you to say,” She said.
“You are the one that jumps from man to man, I don’t know how easy it is for you sef” She continued.
“Don’t fall in love” Mirabel said and smirked.
Stephanie rolled her eyes at what her best friend said and hissed. What was she expecting from a girl who can’t even keep a man she thought. SEARCH FOR LOVE
