Author POV
Lia stared at her, as she processed the question her god daughter just asked her. So many questions came conflicting on her mind, and she couldn’t come to wrap her head around what she asked. In as much as she wanted to think negative things, she was convinced that there wasn’t anything of such, knowing she doesn’t go out in the afternoon.
“What do you mean Octavia?” She asked, trying to satisfy her curiosity, she wanted to know what’s happening with her, everything in details.
“Are you seeing someone?” She further asked, as she raised Octavia’s face to look at her, staring into her eyes, like she wanted to look into her soul. She didn’t want her getting inro the wrong hands, she’s too precious to her, to be hurt by anyone.
Octavia gulped down nothing, as she stared into her god mother’s eyes, contemplating on whether to tell her the truth or not, in as much as she wanted to open up and tell her everything, she found herself holding back, for the fear of not getting to see his prince charming again, in as much as she didn’t want to hide anything from her, she just couldn’t being herself to telling her about his prince charming.
“Cmon mother, it’s just a question.” She scoffed, as she turned her face away, trying as much as not to show her nervousness, and not to get suspicious.
“How can that even be possible mother? I mean, I don’t go out in the afternoons, so how am I supposed to meet someone at night, when they’re all sleeping then. And I abide by your rules, I never met any stranger, knowing what will happen, if I do so. Can you answer my question now?” She rolled her eyes.
Lia stared at her daughter suspiciously for split minutes, contemplating on whether to believe her or not. She knew she was right, there’s no way she can meet someone in the night, but can she really trust her on this?
“Cmon mother, stop giving me that look, ok?” She whined.
“Get to sleep now Octavia, it’s already late, and I need to get going now. You have to be careful please, and make sure to be safe, ok? I’ll see you when I have the chance to.” She cupped her cheeks and gave her a small, before finally leaving her.
Octavia watched as she walked out, she was disappointed and sad at same time. She bit her lower lip in hurt, as she laid on her mat, which is only comfort, as she finally let her tears out freely, she was hurt beyond words, she was really curious, but it seemed she was never gonna get help.
Letting out a small sigh, she wiped her tears, and closed her eyes, as she allowed herself drifted to sleep…
Moon POV
I yawned tiredly, and stretched my hands, as they made a crack sound, before I finally sat up on the bed, and glanced at the wall clock. Oh moon goddess save me, I’m fucking late on my first day of school, geez! Am I not an asshole?
Hurrying off the bed, I dashed into the bathroom, had a quick bath, and in half an hour, I was ready for school, as I grabbed my backpack from the bed, before storming out of my room, after which I made my way straight to the dinning, where I met everyone, having breakfast, including the Alpha.
“Good morning mom, good morning brother.” I smiled happily, as I gave Khalid a side hug.
“Hey!” He said simply, not raising an eye to look at me. I’m used to him being like this, he’s not that of an extrovert.
“Mom why didn’t you wake me up?” I whined, as I sat down and started eating my potion of food, which the maid just served me. One thing I would never do, no matter how late I am, is leaving home with an empty stomach. You can say that I’m a foodie, but I don’t care, I love my health, so I need to eat something.
“Sorry, I totally forgot. By the way, your brother has already arranged a driver that’ll be taking you to school and back.” Mom said.
“Oh no brother! I can drive myself remember? You know I like my privacy, and besides, all those shits sucks.” I whined, tucking on his hand.
“Ok then.” He replied simply, then stood up and walked away.
“Alright mom, see you.” I smiled, and kissed her forehead, before storming out of the dinning room, and soon, I was out in the parking lot, where I met a guy, standing beside my car, and I fumer.
“Good morning my princess.” He bowed slightly. Ignoring his greetings, I pushed him off my way, and made to open the door, when his hand stopped me. My eyes darkened in anger.
“How dare you!” I growled angrily as I yanked his hand away, and landed two hot slaps on his cheeks, leaving a few marks on his face, that’ll last forever.
“This should be the first and last time, you would ever try this shit with me, because the next time, you may not be as lucky as this.” I said angrily, and with that, I hopped in my car, and drove out of the house.
My attention was all on the road, as I drove my way to school, with so many thoughts in my mind, I can’t just help, but get nervous. This isn’t my first time of going to school, but I don’t know why I’m so nervous about this particular one, I should be happy, that after so many months of staying at home, I finally got to see the four corners of school, right? Why am I not feeling too good about this? Or could it be that something’s gonna happen?
I finally stopped at the parking lot, after what seemed like forever of driving. Gosh! The school is so damn far from my house, I wonder what would’ve happened, if I have to walk down here by legs.
Taking a deep breath, I opened the door, and got down, before walking to the entrance, and soon, I was walking through the hallway, going to God knows where, and the worst part, there wasn’t any student present, who I can ask for direction. After walking for a few minutes, I stopped in front of a door, and raised my hand to knock on the door, when it opened, making my hand hang in the air, as I was welcomed with the least expected person ever. What! What’s he doing here?
