The Ring { 1 }

~~

I ran inside the house and looked around. "Is there anything I can get you Ms. George?" one of the maid asked.

"Ms. George?" I asked.

The maid nodded her head. Seeing me speechless the maid asked me "Do you want a meal?" and then I realized how much hungry I was.

I nodded my head saying yes and the maid quickly scurried away.

I walked to the second floor to my bedroom and changed the outfit. I went down the stairs to see if my meal was ready. I dug into my food hungrily.

'I LOVE FOOD!!!' I said and smiled to myself.

When I finished eating, I ate the silver pill and I immediately felt sleepy. I went upstairs and changed into my pjs, when I saw Ryan was already asleep on the couch. I threw myself on the bed and as soon as the warmth from the bed reached my body, I felt asleep.

~~

The next day, I woke up and the sun was on my face shining brightly.

It felt so much better from last night's sleep. I stretched and notice that Ryan was not in the room. I shrugged and got out of bed. I got ready for the morning tea and headed for the breakfast table.

Everyone was there, except for Ryan. "Where's Ryan?" I asked as the breakfast plate was being set in front of me.

"He said that he is doing something really important today." Mrs. George said and grinned.

"Oh." I said and continued eating. "Jennifer, I have some news for you." Mr. George said, "I've seen your health result and it is very good so far. I was thinking that you don't have to take the medicine anymore. But if you face any problem, come tell me immediately." I nodded happily as the thought to stop taking the medicine crossed my mind. Since childhood i was bound to take medication which made me feel sick every day.

When I finished breakfast, I was about to go upstairs when Mrs. George stopped me saying, "Jennifer, honey, don't you want to go outside instead of being stuck in the room?" She pushed a strand of hair out of my eye lovingly reminding me of my Mom. I felt wetness in corner of my eyes.

I nodded happily and said, "Yes! "

"Well, let's get dressed and we could head into the city." Mrs. George said and smiled.

I walked to the room and opened the door to the walk-in closet. I sighed. How can I choose with so many clothes?

I walked over to a sundress and stared at it for a moment. I am usually not a type of girl who wears sundress, but today I felt like wearing it. I grabbed it and thanked Sunny so much for having a matching shoe underneath the dress.

I quickly got dressed and headed down the stairs to the open front door.

The maidens, quickly hand me a very cute umbrella. The limo was outside the house, already waiting for me. The door man opened the door for me to get in and Mrs. George followed in behind me.

When we settled in the car, Mrs. George started talking.

"How's everything going on? ?" she asked.

I paused for a moment and started saying, "It'ssss, ummmmm -"

"Jennifer, honey, you don't need to lie in front of me. Just tell me how you feel and be honest. I know, we rushed everything and pushed you guys together, but just tell me how you really feel." I leaned back on the leather seat and Mrs. George patted my hand.

"I don't know. All I know is that I don't have any feelings for him and I don't think I will ever have."

There was a awkward silence in the car and I could hear the car engine's hum.

"Well, honey, let's see what you really don't like about him. And be honest." Mrs. George asked.

I paused and thought about that, what do I not like about him? Unable to find anything even after thinking very hard i said, "I don't know. I really don't know. It's just that I don't want to be in love with anyone right now. I want to be a single and not get married."

Mrs. George nodded her head a little, can't tell if she is thinking or not but then she said, "Honey, why don't you give him a little chance and see how it goes."

I nodded, but I knew I didn't really mean it.

The car stopped in front of a restaurant. It was beautiful and it looked like a 5 star restaurant.

"This is Ryan's favourite eating place." Mrs. George said and beamed at me.

The smell that was coming from the restaurant was making my mouth water.

We went inside and we instantly got a seat by the window.

"This is Ryan's favorite table." Mrs. George said as we got seated.

I have to admit, I like this restaurant too. I grabbed a menu and look for something to eat. I ordered a number 7, even when I didn't knew what it was -just 7 being my favourite number I ordered it.

Mrs. George ordered a number 29 and a salad.

The meal came in no time and I dug it. Damn it's good. I smiled on the inside.

"The full moon is coming up, Jennifer." Mrs. George said.

I nodded and a few question popped up in my mind, I asked her "So, do we turn to a werewolf on the full moon?"

Mrs. George nodded and grinned, "It will be fun, just watch. There will be a lots of other wolfs and we could do anything on that day. We can hunt, wrestle and a lot more."

My eyes widened and my eyebrow lifted "Like on the full moon, everyone would become furry??"

"Yeah."She said excitingly.

"But I don't know how to turn to a wolf." I pouted innocently.

"Oh, you will honey, it is very easy." Mrs. George makes it sound so easy, because she was a wolf all her life.

She continued, "You just have to think about your wolf and your wolf would wake up. Then you have to give your wolf a name, so, on the full moon, you call your wolf's name and you would turn to a wolf. When you turn to a wolf, you could talk to your mate."

"But don't you have -" I was terrified by the thought of how i will speak.

"No you don't, when you become a wolf, he could hear your thoughts only at that time. But when you fully bond, he could hear your thoughts forever."

"Ohhh," I felt relieved, 'At least someone can hear me when I become a wolf, so I don't have to be so confused.' Than I started wondering,

'What would my wolf look like??'

'Will my wolf would just wake up by a call 'wolf'?'

I decided to give it a try.

I calmed myself down and focused on my inner breathing.

Once i felt peace i slowly said 'WOLF!'

'HI!!!!' said a voice and I jumped, almost fell off my seat.
