Wolfed Chapter 39
We parted ways to get in a couple hours of sleep before we had to get up and start a new day. Poor Draugluin had to give a full report to his father before he could even thinking of his head hitting the pillow. That boy could sleep like the dead, I'd tried to wake him before in the past. I could be college or he's just a deep sleeper.When I got to my room, the sky had already brightened slightly to a grey-blue color. Uncle Benny was sound asleep with Lupe and Freki laying against him. The small lamp above Uncle Benny’s head illuminated an opened fairy tale book on the table. I gave a small grin as I saw a bit of drool pooling at the corner of Freki’s mouth. It must have been a hard night for them. Freki may have found a way to get Uncle Benny to tell her where I was and what I was doing as she could be a master manipulator. I don't know where she learned it from or if she figured out how to do it on her own but it was fun to watch unless she was trying to manipulate me. I sluggishly

“I can’t trust these two alone together,” Alpha growled while staring daggers at his son and then probably at me; my head was still lowered. “Send a Gamma or Epsilon or both here to watch them.” Alpha then stormed off without another word.“Go get some others,” Draugluin ordered Lyall, “I’ll handle this.” I hated how he pointed down at me but there was nothing I could do with Lyall there. My friend ran off before Draugluin approached me.“I have to agree with my father,” he gave a hesitant smile while putting his hand on my shoulder. “Why is it always you?”“Am I a bad luck charm,” I asked sarcastically, though I put no real effort into the remark.“Well, in all fairness, facts are facts. I do apologize for Father’s treatment of you. That wasn’t right. He has been under a lot of stress lately with little sleep. Adding a mysterious car to his plate is just riling him up. I fear that he might go overboard and really hurt himself.”“But,” I looked up with a scared expression, “if anyone k

Lyall stood frozen in pure shock of what was before him. The Gamma’s headpiece had fallen out in the chase and Lyall decided to go personally to let his father know about the status of the car. He never imagined to see his tough, hardened brother to be crying while practically cradling Lucian. Lyall didn’t know what happened to her but whatever she’d done had damaged the BMW enough that it lost control.While taking in the scene, he looked more closely at his friend and noticed her severe wounds but that couldn’t amount to the emotional pain that stabbed him like a knife in the gut. His brother was in love with his best friend who he also had strong feelings towards. They weren’t romantic feelings but he didn’t want his friendship with Lucian to be severed because of his brother.Lyall slowly walked backwards deciding to go through the front door of the house instead of returning through the back entrance. When he finally turned around, all he could see was his brother and Lucian in hi

“Lyall,” Eliseo was at the door, “Let her rest. It is not yet time for her to receive visitors.”I almost smiled behind my bandages if it didn’t hurt so much. Eliseo was ready to let Freki and Lupe see me but not Lyall? Maybe because he was slightly emotionally unstable.“But Draugluin gets to,” Lyall glared daggers at the doctor as if to challenge him but Eliseo did not avert his gaze. What was with that childish response anyway? It took a lot of energy not to giggle knowing it would be really painful.“He is not recovering from an injury and is the one person besides myself and Amelia who is to report her condition to Alpha. Alpha wants Lucian to be healthy so he can speak with her.”‘Yeah, right,’ I wanted to snarl. What he meant to say was that Alpha wanted to scream his head off at me for doing something so reckless.Without a word, Lyall stood. The way he was slumped over made him look like a zombie. That sent a shiver down my spine. Good thing zombies weren’t real. I watched Lya

It was too bad I couldn’t learn my new duties because my plane ticket to Paris was in three days. It was a nonstop flight to Charles De Gaulle airport which was the largest airport in Paris, was twenty two miles from the catacombs; a 47 minute drive if traffic was generous after being dropped off at our hotel, the Solar Hotel, which was roughly $81 per night. By the time we got there it would 9:53 pm as Paris was about eight hours ahead of my home. At least that’s what I assumed, I wasn’t quite sure. Maybe seven hours.“For ticket prices for both ways, food, hotel room expenses and transportation, your entire trip will cost about eighteen thousand easy,” Ermengarde counted on her fingers as she, Rusty and I sat at the island in the kitchen sipping hot cocoa. “Perhaps twenty thousand depending on the type of restaurants you go to or if you’ll eat at the hotel. You might want a room with a refrigerator in it so you can just buy food from the grocery store and eat that instead.” Leave it

After twenty minutes outside our gate, we boarded the plane with no issue but our seats were across the aisle from one another. Nice move Alpha Mother. Clear irritation showed on Draugluin ’s face as he glared at me. I chuckled at his immaturity then stuck my tongue out at him. It seemed as if he were about to move seats before a heavy set man in a very nice suit sat between him and me in the aisle seat. I had an aisle seat as well while Draugluin had a middle seat. There was already a man with glasses reading a newspaper by the window on Draugluin 's side so he was trapped.“Mom, can I sit by the window?” a young boy tugged on the skirts of a woman with short, caramel-colored hair who was staring at the seat numbers. Her eyes lit up when she saw my row.“Yes, yes,” she gently pushed her son forward as there were other passengers waiting to find their own seats standing behind them.“Look Mom! I can see all the different planes!” The boy had to be about seven and he resembled his moth

‘Of the pillow?’ He mouthed back.‘No. That I have better company.’‘Oh sure, you looked like you were having a great time,’ Draugluin then smiled, knowing I hadn’t been very happy listening to Patty and I glared at him as I was given my pillow. I regretting being able to read his lips so easily.I actually fell asleep, probably truly mentally exhausted. When I woke up, the plane was getting ready to land in Charles De Gualle airport. Patty was shaking her son awake when I glanced to my left. I couldn’t believe she didn’t try to tap me to wake up just so she could talk. I noticed an open notebook on her lap and read one page with my excellent vision. She was actually sad that she wouldn’t get to see Woody for five more days and hoped that everything went smoothly for the both of them. She even admitted to hating planes so much that it made her ill and that distracting herself was hard. Patty then complained about how easy her son adjusted to flying and behaved well. I never met a pers

“Bonjour,” I replied in one of the few French words I knew. My voice alerted Draugluin that the waitress was speaking to us.“Une table pour deux s’il vous plait. De préférence dans le dos?” Draugluin smiled politely at the woman who blushed.“Suis moi,” the woman grabbed to menus and weaved through some tables until she reached one near a window.“Merci,” Draugluin nodded as he sat across from me. I also nodded in thanks, still feeling like a complete idiot. “She seems nice.”My eyes traveled up and down Draugluin ’s face, curious of why the waitress blushed. He was handsome and, when he smiled sincerely, he could be considered charming. Draugluin was currently looking over the menu, his lips moving slightly as he read.“What do you want?” He looked up at me and I quickly averted my eyes to the window.“I can’t speak French nor read it.” Hopefully I sounded like myself and didn’t seem awkward after staring at him.“They have broccoli cheddar soup or tomato with basil, ones you're par
