Chapter 77
” I have a date tonight” Audrey blurted out
” where are you taking Stephanie to” Derrick asked smiling sheepishly at his brother.
” Stop smiling, why are you smiling like that” Audrey asked looking at his brother
“Well, I am just happy for you, it’s been long a lady has made you this happy ” Derrick replied patting his brother on the back
“We have an art exhibition coming up, so that is what we are going for, I just want to take her to the art gallery tonight and maybe spice up our relationship a bit” Audrey said to his brother.
“Eww bro I really did not need to know the remaining part” Austin chuckled as he had been listening to all their conversations but did not say a word about it.
As they stepped out of the court they noticed that they were being followed by some group of men who wanted to talk to them about something. Audrey became paranoid as he thought that the people who were following them were the Ravens considering what he had done the day before.
” Calm down Audrey, breathe” Austin said as he held him from confronting them.
They had finally approached them when Audrey recognised them to be from the community they had recently entered into.
” who are you and why are you following us” Derrick said charging towards them but he was held back by Austin
” chill my guy relax, these people are practically coming to you unharmed, at least do not harm them, let’s hear what they have to say” Austin said
“Hi, good afternoon, I am Lawrence” one of them said, stretching his hands for a handshake
” We are from the Pack here in New York, our Alpha sent us to you, he already explained to us so we were told to watch out for everyone of you as we would be held accountable for you guys safety” he continued.
“Oooh Alright, I am Audrey and this is my brother Derrick, the other persons are Carlos and Austin” Audrey said pointing towards the group as he introduces them to th
“It is nice meeting all of you guys and please help us tell your alpha that we are really grateful for the help he has rendered us, he has no idea how this would go a long way in helping us” Audrey said.
“So, we would need to know the people that are dear to your heart and would like to protect” Lawrence said as he counted them
“Carlos is a human though , so we would need to actually look out for him more, and my girlfriend and her best friend Mirabel, they are both humans so concentrate on them ” Audrey said.
” We can handle ourselves, ” Derrick chirped.NôvelDrama.Org content.
After a long talk between the Pack and Audrey, they left for their other duties as they were assigned to many other duties. Carlos seemed excited about the conversation he just heard, he had never really seen a werewolf or touched one before talkless of being friends with them, he was shocked but fascinated when he heard that the people he was becoming close with turned out to be Werewolves.
” Woooo, you guys are werewolves, ” Carlos said in an excited tone.
” Wait , how did you know that?” Derrick asked.
” Lol, I figured when you called me a human and they introduced themselves as a pack with the mention of an alpha, I have watched movies you know” Carlos bragged.
“Well now that you know, can you please not disclose this to anyone?” Audrey said with pleading eyes.
“Sure I will, I have no intentions of ruining my chance with the most incredible werewolves I have ever seen, I wish I followed my mum to where she is now, I heard that she worked for a big werewolf family before she got deported” Carlos said.
Audrey and Derrick looked at each other in surprise. It seemed like all the pieces were coming back together. First he looked like nanny Maria and now he was saying something about his mum working for werewolves.
“Did you say your mum worked for werewolves” Derrick asked inquisitively
” Yes, Yes, I heard though, those are just rumors you know” Carlos said, cutting them off abruptly as he had a call to pick up immediately.
They both continued along the way while Carlos picked up his call as soon as he was done he ran as fast as he could to meet up with them. Derrick tried dropping the matter since he already mentioned that his mum was already deported, it could not have been nanny Maria as she had not yet been deported but Derrick was not having any of it
” So chill, Do you have any idea where your mum worked when she was still in America?” Audrey asked.
” Honestly bro I have no idea, but I wish I did I would have found her faster, I literally abandoned them when my dad was crossing the Mexico border, I followed him into America leaving my Younger sister with her” Carlos narrated ,” I came with the intentions that I would process their papers immediately I arrived at America so they could come join us over here but along the line my parents got divorced so for a very long time I was not able to process her papers as she was no longer married to my father, and that one cut all the possible ties he thought I had with her, by the time I was legally done with both their papers I flew back to Mexico to pick them up, only to be told that they already left for America ” Carlos continued. This was a story he never told anybody, his migration story was heartbreaking as that was the biggest mistake of his life, he lost access to two of the most important people in his life, so even if he already got his sister back, no one could ever fill the space his mum took in his heart.
“So what happened” Derrick asked feeling sorry for him
” I did not know what to do where am I going to start looking for them in America, besides my father did not appreciate the way I was looking for my mum, all he cared about was having my sister with him that was the only reason he encouraged me to continue searching in America, but all my Searches always ended up badly as I never found any of them” Carlos continued.
He never knew that he had hidden so much pain in him till that point because telling the story to another kind of helped him to deal with the situation that he might never get to see his mother again, he felt confident in his friendship with them, they were easy to talk to and they looked like they were not going to use his story against him, that was what gave him the morale to move on with it without dropping a tear.
” So what happened to your sister, why is she here with you” Austin asked him
