Torma..
LEVI ARCANE;
Music blasted at Matt's house. I was used to this kind of thing; music, drinks, girls and..
Symone?
'What the fuck?' I mumbled out loud, Matt looked straight at me.
'If you want me to hear you then you're gonna have to speak louder than that!' He sipped his strawberry daiquiri. His eyes landed on Symone too.
'Ah..the Johnathan girl!' I saw him lick his lips from the side of my eye. I rolled my eyes..
Matt had always been that.. 'horny' friend. I knew.. We all knew it. It was him. I patted his arm and made my way towards Symone.
'Leave some for me!' I heard him yell behind me. My first instinct was to flip him off but..
I kept my thoughts on Danielle. She left almost an hour ago. She would kill me if something happened to her daughter. Her crazy ass daughter. I mean what is she doing talking to that turtle.
'Symone?' I cleared my throat behind her. She turned and I could see that she was ready to kill whoever interrupted her flirting.
Her dark angry face exploded with happiness when she saw me.
'Step Daddy!' She squealed immediately getting everyone's attention. I embarrassingly waved them off forcing a smile on my face.
'Monsieur Turtle..meet non other than my mother's secret admirer and soon to be step_'
I pulled her away from the table letting her drop the turtle before it retreated into its shell.
'I don't want to go home dad!' Wtf?
'Could you just_' I gestured a lock on me lips for her understand.
'Step Daddy.. alrigggght!' Matt showed up with the usual smug look in his face. I groaned. 'You still going after that Danielle chic?' He laughed. Symone joined him. I knew she was drunk, I just found it odd. She never drank. Not that I knew her.
Something must have upset her.
'Matt look!' I pinched my nose bridge. 'Could you just excuse us for a second..I need to get her home!' I grabbed Symone's arm and dragged her after me.
She struggled until I got to the car, I let her loose and she pouted angrily. 'I am not going anywhere!'
'You just did..and besides you don't get to make the decisions.' I opened the car door for her. She stared at me in confusion, I forced her in.
Making my way to the other side of the door, I opened it to find her glaring at me already. Her face was glossy, she was crying.
How awkward was this?
'You ruined my birthday!' She mumbled. I sighed, I didn't do anything.
'I just reminded your mother of how we celebrated her birthday_'
'It was tradition!' She looked out the other window. The car had begun moving. 'You ruined it..and she didn't seem to care. You both ruined it..my birthday!'
I sighed and let her sulk for all I cared. I was just trying to make her birthday fun. Danielle couldn't spend the rest of her life around her daughter.
I got out my phone and texted Danielle. She was worried about Samuelle. I didn't know what her reaction would be if she saw her daughter in this state.
My eyes moved to Symone and she seemed asleep. I didn't pay attention to her after that.
I kept my eyes on the road.
I stopped by a drug shop and got some pain killers. I knew she'd need them in the morning.
I got back to the car and found the passenger door open and..
No Symone.
'Fuck!' I pulled out my phone and texted Chris, another of my best friends. He was the most sensible. His life was put together. Had a mate, two sons and was currently the alpha of his pack.
'Hey dude..I need your nose!'
Chris was a great tracker and that was a quality of his pack and being Alpha, he had the best.
Chris took not more than thirty minutes to find me.
'Hey!' He smiled giving me a quick hug. 'What is the emergency?'
I sighed. 'I need help finding a girl..'
He gave me that look.
'Eww..not that kind of girl..it's Danielle's daughter!' I explained and his face was blank.
'You are still in touch with her?' He creased his brows.
I sighed. 'Yes! Now can you help me find her!'
'Description please!' He said seriously.
'5'6, teal eyes, burgundy hair, bad attitude at the moment. Really drank_'
'I think I came across that in the woods..she seemed angry at me for creeping through the woods!' He explained. 'She said some guy asked her to follow him and then vanished!'
'Shit!' I cursed out loud running to the woods. Chris followed me and stopped me.
'What is the rush about? We will find her in no time!' He laughed. 'She is not far!'
'Goré has some sort of obsession with her!' I yelled frustratedly at him. 'It has tried to take her more than twice!'
His face remained plain. 'It has taken lots of humans too..'
'Yes..it has fed on them..' I turned him to the woods whispering into his ears. 'But for Samuelle..it has tried to drain her, disguising itself as temporary people to take her..and we all know what Goré does when it drains someone_'
I moved past him hearing him complete the sentence from behind. 'It plants it's essence in them!'
He followed me growling the rest. 'We have got to find her before she becomes humanity for Goré!'
He stopped and looked at me. 'Hey do you know why Goré chose her?' I shook my head but spoke.
'But whatever reason why..it must not be good!' I nodded at him. He led us into the darkness following her scent.
We got to a part of the woods where it was impossible for human eyes to see. I caught sight of Chris's glowing eyes and mine did the same.
'Her scent is pungent here and that's it!'
I looked around and saw her jacket. I picked it up and showed it to Chris. He groaned realizing we'd been outsmarted.
'This better not be Goré because if it is..then it's definitely gotten smarter.'
