Still With My Family

All through our walk, none said a word. I know he deserves an apology but I don't even know where to start from. He didn't even reply to who passed and greet him. Some even gave me a suspecting look but my problem is far greater than I should care.

I saw my room at a distance and I was happy. I would just sneak in and he wouldn't even noticed. That was my plan but to my surprise, I saw him enter the room right beside mine. At first I paused not knowing why he entered untill realization was done on me. I widen my eyes at it.

"His room is next to mine" I almost shouted but I ended up saying it in my head.

I ran into my room, close the door and beamed for joy. I wanted to shout but I know he has keen ears. He would definitely hear me. I've ridiculed myself enough today. I didn't know why this sudden joy was emitting inside me but I sure love the happiness. I jumped on my bed, covered my mouth so as not to shout.

"Why the happiness?" Storm mocked me.

"As if you aren't happy too" I snapped and then smiled almost immediately.

Storm and I share feeling, emotions so I know what she felt even when she's trying to cover them.

The joy that's filled my heart was really strange. I get to kiss that mysterious beautiful man and now, I got to find out that he's just next door. That's like a dream come true.

"But what about Alec?"

Storm finally decided to ruin my mood and she succeeded. I glared at her.

"Why bring him up now? You should have at least let me enjoy this happiness before ruining it. Happy?" I said crudely and sat down with a sullen face.

" I didn't mean to ruin your day. It's just that you've been chrushing on him for over ten years now and now just in few months you seem to have forgotten about him" she said.

" I didn't forget about him. What's up with you? It's not as if you were in support of my feelings for him" I retorted.

" Yes and I'm still not. Your crush is childish and he's not our mate but then I won't let you forget a friend" she replied.

" A friend? You sure know that Alec is more than a friend to me" I snapped.

I don't know what is wrong with her. She behaving so confusing. I don't even know what she's trying to derive from all these.

"Keep lying to yourself. Well I like Bounce more" she pouted.

This her words gave me anger.

"You can't like him. He is an enemy. He killed my father" I snapped.

" No he didn't. One of his men did" she corrected me.

She's my wolf, she should be supporting me not an outsider and an enemy at that.

"What a follower does us equal to what the mater does" I argued.

" If truely he is an enemy, do you think Damion and Alec won't be dead by now? He spared them Jessy and that's because he didn't see them as a threat" she said blankly.

I didn't have any word to counter that. As it is well known that the demon alpha never spares anyone he counted as an enemy. He has never done it before. Why he spared Damion and the rest when they intrude is territory is still a mystery to me till now. He hasn't even hurt me talk more of torturing me like I expected. Better still he treated me like a visitor with restraint.

"You see, you don't have anything to say" Storm said.

" He hasn't hurt me now doesn't mean he won't or can't hurt me later. You know he can't be predicted" I said bluntly.

" Why not let's be positive here. I miss home and I miss my freedom" she said sadly.

" Me too" I agreed.

They might treat me well here but there's nothing like your own freedom.

"Why not let's get on his good side so he could peacefully send us home".

I frowned at her words.

" Are you insinuating that I should abandon the revenge plan, just to go home?" I asked.

I didn't want to believe that that's what she meant. She can't be serious. Damion will kill me if I tell him this.

"It's not a bad thing. It's called saving yourself" she shrugs.

" Storm!" I called. " You can't be serious!"

Now she's getting me so vexed. My father is also her father. Letting his death go like that is nothing but a shameful slap on our face.

"How can you say such a thing?" I asked sternly

" That's nothing wrong with what I said. I'm trying to save us from untimely death here. It's not as if if we fight him we are going to win. He is a demon and so is his men. Why not just let us leave this place in one piece" she shouted.

" You must be joking. I might fancy that man but that doesn't men I'll put my useless feelings for him over my family. How dare you say such a thing. Have you forgotten that they are your family too?" I barked not minding if anyone could hear me.

"Don't be so vexed. I'm only looking out for our wellbeing" she said softly.

" That's not true. It's for your own selfish gain" I retorted.

That got Storm angry and she blocked herself. I didn't mind since I was still angry at her words. My day was going fine and she came to ruin it with her words. Now she succeeded in making me feel so bad about me abandoning my family. I was just too carried away by the beauty of this place.

I miss my brother. I miss everyone at home and that brought tears to my eyes. I've never been so far away from home like this.

I went beneath my bed to get the writing materials that I hid there. I first thought of writing to Damion and asking how this were going at home but I know Damion, he won't appreciate the frienzie. I know all he want to hear from me is about the Demon Alpha. I don't have anything yet but right now I'm promising myself to stop getting familiar and get to work. But still I want to write to Damion, just to hear from him.

"The demon Alpha is not an ordinary being. I think he has a witch backing him up with powers. You should be careful with him. It takes more power to conquer power".

What I wrote wasn't necessary but I needed to write so as to clear my guilty conscience. I felt like I've betrayed my family. I need to assure myself that my heart is still with my family not the demon Alpha.
