Chapter 64
” Alright father thank you and goodbye, please give the phone to Derrick ” he said, ” Guy do not tell Sophie about this I don’t want her to get unnecessarily worried you know how she could be when it comes to things like this’ ‘ he told Derrick
Sophie was a very extra person, she could get extremely worried if she hears about it and would even fly to New York if need be .
“Sure bro I would try my possible best to keep it a secret, pray she does not deny be sex though you know I would be forced to compromise” his brother jokingly said and hung up
Sadky enough his secret could not be kept safe with Derrick too, he knew how Sophie had been tied around her fingers and would get anything she wants including any Information she wanted to know he just hoped that Derrick would not divulge this one to her and he trusted him because he would not want Stephanie to worry too.
After he hung the call with his brother, he heard a knock on his door, he went to open it and lo and behold it was Stephanie, his mood instantly changed to that of a happy person.
” I have been trying to reach you since morning” she scolded him
” I’m sorry babe, I had to go to the woods for an emergency” he said hugged her trying to pacify her.
” Hope everything is okay babe” she asked
By this time Austin decided to take his leave because he knew how important it was for them to have that conversation and he knew they needed their privacy, so he bade them goodbye and dashed out of the room.
” I need you to be careful all is not well, the Ravens are in town that is one of the reasons I went to the woods today they were mostly killed though because they attacked the inhabitants of the woods, another pack of wolves” Audrey told her.
But he told her he was not telling her to scare her but for her to be vigilant and wary of her surroundings, he described how she would be able to identify a raven werewolf even in their human form. Instead of seeing a scared Stephanie, the reaction she gave him impressed him as she said she was not scared because she had people who loved her and were willing to protect her.
” Don’t worry , babe I would be fine, thank you for heads up anyway I know what I set myself up for anyway, I know you would protect me and not let any harm come to me” she said as she held his hands
” This was not the reaction I was expecting but okayyyy, I like what I am seeing” Audrey said and laughed
She hissed and proceeded to give her boyfriend the hug and kiss she did not give him when she first arrived into his room the Ravens were the least of her problems, all she needed to do at that point was a good sleep and a cuddle from her man as she was very tired.
After she had recounted all her experiences during the day to him, she slept soundly like a baby in his arms.
Stephanie ran home, on the way home she prayed for Sir Roland’s safety and hoped that he was fine. She did not know why both siblings were always fighting. By the time she got home she came down from the cab, on getting there she saw Derrick.
“Hey Derrick, how is your father doing” she asked
” The doctor is checking up on him right now, I am very sure he will be fine” Derrick replied.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Where is my brother?” He asked.
“He went to the woods” she said looking down with remorse in her eyes, ” I could not hold him down, I tried as much as possible to hold him down but it just was not possible, he is stronger than me”she continued trying to explain.
“What do you mean you tried holding him down? ” he asked, unsure of what that meant.
” Well you see when he got out he immediately transformed Into a wolf, so we did some running around the house and everything in between I managed to get hold of him but it just was not possible to hold him down, I tried calling you guys inside but body seemed to answer me so he ran off” she said
” You held a wolf, are you crazy? Do you want to die?” he confronted her.
“He bit me though, Sophie is in the woods anyway she is trying to bring him out” she said and started entering the house.
She had enough drama, she did not want another person lecturing her on what she did wrong and what she did not do wrong. She did not tell Sophie that she was bit on purpose because she knew how she would freak out if she ever heard that Audrey bit her in a bid to escape from her grip, she
she got tired of everybody doting over her, she was snot a baby, she could handle herself.
“Let me take a look at where he bit you”Derrick rushed after her.
” Derrick it’s fine, you are supposed to watch after your father not me, he is the other that needs this babysitting”she snapped
” Chill I promised my brother to always look after you and that is what I will do, sorry if you think I’m being overboard but I must do it” he said surprised that she could change it for him at that point.
” I’m sorry, Derrick y’all are just being so overprotective of me and it makes me feel like I can not do anything on my own” she apologized for snapping at him
” I understand how you feel, my dad is being checked up on, let us go and dress your wound in the room, if you don’t mind” he said.
He called Nanny Maria to bring the first aid box up to his room.
On getting to his room, she admired how beautiful his room was, the paintings, the lights, which made everything so beautiful. His room looked exactly like Audrey’s room back in New York. This was her first time entering his room but she felt like she had been in the room before.
” I like your room, you sure are good in interior decor” she complimented his room
” Well thank you I am not the person that designed this room, Audrey he did and it seems he did a marvelous job because people keep complimenting how beautiful my room is” he said , feeling himself
She sat on his bed as he helped her with the wound she incurred while stopping Audrey.
” Why did you not tell Sophie about this?” he said, using cotton wool to wipe up the blood that had stained her hands.
” I knew she would focus on me instead of looking for audrey, we needed to find him so he would not do something stupid right” she said.
