Trapped with the Alpha

“Nothing, he replied”, ” Werewolves live like humans too unlike vampires, and they can look like regular people too”.

He told her not to be scared as they would navigate through that phase with her together, and she rolled her eyes at the statement.

He then told her that they would need to go to Cleveland to meet his parents and other prominent Werewolves are.

She was actually expecting that they would visit Cleveland but this soon, she was not down for it. She didn’t want to meet that part of his life just yet and she wasn’t ready to embrace that part of her life too and going to Cleveland means that it will eventually happen.

After much persuasion and begging, she reluctantly agreed to follow him to Cleveland, she needed things to be sorted Out, if going to his hometown was going to provide answers then so be it.

After she had agreed to follow him to meet his parents at his house, he walked out of the house feeling funky and happy.

She then arranged her room and laid on her bed, listening to “Before you go” by Lewis calpadi.

She laid on that bed feeling worried because she felt or knew she had a bigger problem, which was meeting the parents who are also Werewolves.

She couldn’t sleep as she kept tossing and turning

“In a few days time she was meeting the parents” she chuckled

As she slept at night, she couldn’t help but think about the fact that she’s meeting the parents of the man she loved, that alone was enough to scare her but her fear was heightened due to the fact that the supposed parents she was meeting were also werewolves, sh already had enough encounter with one werewolf, now she’s meeting three. She kept turning and tossing till she was able to catch a bit of sleep.

She woke up in the morning feeling anxious and scared, she got up from bed and prepared for her classes, she prayed and hoped that she didn’t encounter or bump into Audrey on campus. It would make everything between them weird, besides she didn’t know how she would react to the sight of him in Public places.

She arrived in time for her English class, the lecturer taking them was a very genuine and kind man. Time flew by fast and the class ended.

She was very hungry so she decided to go to the first restaurant she had Audrey ever went to, when she bumped into Austin his sophomore friend whom she had met countless times, they exchanged greetings and he asked her how she has been faring and coping in school.

After the exchange of greetings he offered to follow her to the restaurant and pay for her meal, she reluctantly agreed because chances that she would meet Audrey there would be high since his friend might invite him over but she didn’t want to be rude by declining the offer so she accepted the offer.

On getting there they both settled for a glass of cocktail with burger and fries. They began talking about their various lives and how New York University was designed to frustrate them.

Austin mentioned that she was just starting out and she was complaining that if she got to other levels she would almost faint, they both laughed it off and a moment of silence came upon them.

That’s when the thoughts started creeping in again

” What if he was also a werewolf” she thought

“What if he was also in on Audrey’s plan?” she pondered further.

“Did he know what his friend had done to her”

She needed to know the answers to the questions bothering her at the moment but she didn’t want to be rude by asking those questions so she kept quiet and let it go.

Afterall she wasn’t sure if he also came from Cleveland or if he was from one state in America too. Maybe they both met in NYU like her too.

Austin kept looking at her and figured out something could be wrong so he decided to speak.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

She didn’t seem to answer the question so he asked again “What’s wrong, it seems like you are in another world”. She didn’t reply so he snapped his finger at her and she came back to reality.

“Ooh I’m sorry, I was just thinking about a lot of things” she said

“What’s wrong, you know you could tell me anything” he asked.

At that point she wanted to get everything off her chest but she still decided to keep it in.

“It’s nothing, I’m fine really” she replied.

“Alright if you say so” he said and continued eating his food.

All this while she entered into Oblivion she hadn’t even touched her food, so he was wondering what could make her not eat.

They finished the food in silence, after which they both left the restaurant.

They were walking out of the restaurant when she asked him if he had time, he said ” Yes”.

She was happy because she had decided to ask him the question so she could get it off her chest once and for all .

They took a stroll to the Washington Square park because that was the only place she could have a civilized conversation with him.

They immediately looked for the most convenient spot for them and decided to take it.

As she sat down he spoke ” so what is it”.

” What are you so bothered about that made you almost not finish your food?” he probed further.

She smiled and chuckled so he had noticed what she thought in her head. What was she even smiling about? It was obvious to the blind that something was eating her up. She said in her mind.

She had issues spilling whatever was happening in her personal life to anyone but this was Austin maybe had a solution like turning her to a human back plus he was Audrey’s closest friend, the closest person she had ever seen him with. So a lot of help from him would go a long way.

After much internal deliberation and freaking out, she then spilled

“Are you a werewolf?” she asked.

Immediately she asked that question she got her hand on her head because that wasn’t the first question she intended to ask but curiosity got the best of her, she felt ashamed and apologized profusely, after apologizing she stood up and was about to leave but he held her back and told her to sit down.

He was shocked because he wasn’t expecting such a thing to come out, at least not in that way besides why was she engaging in thoughts that he was a werewolf could it be that she had found out Audrey’s real identity, he thought.

But he decided to keep it cool and be more mature about it.

So he told her to calm down and ask the question again.

“The reason I asked the question is because I just recently found out Audrey is a werewolf,” she said. SEARCH FOR LOVE
