There was no need for me to hide the fact that I knew Nate was here so I refilled what happened . "Did he really think I was that kind of a person ? Is that why the others are looking at me weirdly ? "
I nodded my head , "Also , you hadn't talked like this to anyone , remember ? It must be looking really weird from their point of view . Are you an introvert or an extrovert ? You seem easy to talk to . "
I took a bite out of my ham sandwich while she answered . "I'm good with talking but sometimes , I talk way tooo much . I didn't want to spill the wrong tea at the wrong time so I decided to keep my mouth shut .
I told her about my plans about the password and the trick question too . We had both our question and answer ready , decided to make it easy and silly . The new bond we had between us hit different with the others . They were confused but were also not sure whether they wanted to ask me about it .
We couldn't possibly post pond our discussions no more so everybody , including Beth sat down . When Beth sat near me , I decided to simply test my theory . "Beth , where did the mole on my stomach go ?"
"Girl , you HAVE no mole there . " We laughed . It was a really silly question but it worked . She needed to say those exact words , in the exact slang for her to get it correct . Everybody who heard it thought that it was an inside joke that we had and ignored us .
"We have no way of finding if Nate is indeed planning something against us . So , after thinking , the Happons are no longer a threat to us , right Kate ? " I started the conversation . We couldn't keep on procrastinating this topic because it was already serious enough .
Kate replied immediately , "Well , those Happons who are under me won't be of any harm to any of us but I don't have control over all of the Happons . So , I'd say that a majority of Happons aren't dangerous but we should still be cautious of them . "
Ben talked next , "We don't even know what kind of a supernatural power Nate has ! How will we know what he's planning right now ? "
I hadn't told them about what Nate was because then I would've had a hard time trying not to explain how I found it out . I looked over to Beth , turning to my right and to my surprise , she gestured me to say her secret . "I want to feel free again , Rene . It's okay , this way they will also check with me before saying anything important first . "
Nobody could move an inch from their seats when I started telling them everything . "So that's why you kept it a secret ? Beth isn't the awkward person that I thought se was ?" Ben started , everybody started following him .
"Guys , we can answer the questions later . The point is , Nate had already taken a move . God knows how much more moves he had taken and plans to take . "
"Marge , you DO know where Nate lives , right ? " Marge nodded to my question .
"We're going there tonight ."
"What !"
"I said we're going to his house tonight . Not all of us , only 2 of you will come with me . We'll check for something useful . I could also check his brain or something while the others check , you know ."
And so , it was fixed .
It was decided that Dad and Nathaniel would come with me . Both of them had better vision at night without having to use any magic . That night , after hearing a full set of instructions on how to reach his house , the three of us set out for travelling .
Nathaniel was driving us to Nate's place . It three in the morning and we highly doubted if Nate was asleep . His house was the same house that I had seen when I had gone through Marge's life so I knew a faint blueprint of it's hallways . I say hallways because his house was as big as a mansion . I was almost sure that he had secret passages built all over the place .
We walked all around the house to find any kind of entrance . There was none available . The windows were way too high for us to even reach . How did the government not notice such a huge palace ???
I opened the window using magic . Jaden could jump in easily . I didn't want Nath to transform into a wolf right then so I bought him up using magic itself . The floors were made of pure marble and even though it was late , there were ambient lighting all over the hallways . Suits of armors , even though he wasn't an actual king in the medieval time , was kept in order , shining like diamonds .
We walked quietly , trying not to make any of thee clacking nose that our shoes were dying to make . After a while of walking , we found carpets to walk on . We took our chance and could now walk freely without giving strain to our feet .
The long hallways were becoming more defined now and we could see many doors . Slowly , we opened each doors one by one to check what each room contained of .
Many of them were contained storage supplies and extra bedrooms that no one might ever use . We could feel ourselves get closer to finding Nate's room because the supplies and free rooms were now replaced with rooms of some people , who were probably some helpers to maintain the place . Finally , we opened Nate's rooms .
He looked like he was sleeping , in a king sized bed . It looked as soft as cotton but Nate was continuously groaning in between . While the other two were going through Nate's closets and drawers , I went over to Nate . He was sweating profusely and I didn't know why because it was really cool in the room . Perhaps he was sick or ill ?
I reminded myself of what I should and shouldn't do , and took hold of his arm . He was burning hot and I was worried . I gave in and decided to at least cool him off first . Wasn't I supposed to not do it ? He was our enemy ! Was the urge to help my rival way too much for me to handle ?
Before I could stop myself , I was soaking a cloth in water from his basin and keeping it on his forehead . Just before taking my hand back , I was stopped . Nate had woken up . And he was looking me dead in the eye . "What are you doing here ?"
