Chapter 5 - Chapter Four

Supper was decent and no problems. Mom surprised me, again. She asked the cooks to prepare one of my favorite food Mexican. Plus, I had even fried ice cream balls sprinkled in cinnamon and sugar. When everyone was finished I cleaned up the table and trash. When my chores were completed, I was going to my room. But Grandpa said he had a important matter that I should hear.

So, I sat back down at the table. Grandpa handed me the present for Dad. We were curious what was going on. The announcement was that there is a important meeting at the palace. He will be leaving soon. He will be gone a month. I was so bummed that I was not be able to see him that long. I was told that he will be leaving two days after I start school tomorrow. I asked permission to leave the room. I shoved the present in Dad's hands and scurried up to my room.

Mom left after me, and she went to the nursery grabbed Malcolm and sprint to the room and locked it up tight. Because, ever time Dad got drunk he would be to aggressive and abusive.

That was one of the reasons my grandfather had put a lot of securities upon my suite, his, and moms. He knew how dad was. Plus, he would steal my things for his own pleasure. When I stepped into my room and was about to shut it, Grandpa put his hand up so it would not hit him in the face.

He led me to my couch and made me sit beside him. He said," Victor I have been summoned to the palace. The Alpha King will be very angry at me and this pack . I informed him that I will head to the palace on Wednesday because my precious grandson starts tomorrow for school."

He was a little upset but understood that I also have a personal life, too.

I could be a brat from hell and cause trouble. However I was being raised as respected individual. A person that anyone wants to know. I agreed with him in all circumstances. He did say that is another reason I got a phone .

I asked him if he could stay with me and watch some television. He said that he will do it, but he has to sign off a few documents before morning for the Beta Larkin. He informed me that I get ready for bed while he did his work.

I hurried to my bedroom to get my pajamas and underwear for after my shower. I went to the bathroom grab me wash cloth and two towels. I turned on the water to my comfortable temp as I disrobe.

I shower for ten minutes, making sure I was completely clean. I wrapped a towel around me and a towel for my head. I went back to the bedroom and dried off then dressed. I pick up my dirty clothes and towels to put in the hamper.

I entered back to my sitting room and Grandfather had popcorn and Pringles cheddar cheese chips. Plus he had a glass of soda for me and he had his favorite long island ice tea. We watched 911 and his oldie Perry Mason. He tucked me in and made sure that I set the alarm clock correctly. He said good night and he will be seeing me in the morning.

It took me forever to fall asleep. I worried about Mom and Malcolm. I was scared that Grandpa would be hurt or even killed like my other grandfather. Then he will be starting school tomorrow. Boy he finally looked at the clock and saw it was around two in the morning.

I got to sleep some but that stupid clock was ignoring me to death. I only slept four short hours of sleep. I gathered up my belongings and got dressed in a pair of jeans, t-shirt, socks, tennis shoes, and a blue shirt. I went into the office, got my satchel that I packed yesterday with paper, pens, pencils, and etc. I grabbed my hamper, put my satchel on top and went to the door. I locked up my room and proceeded to the kitchen and laundry room. I dropped off my dirty clothes and went back into the kitchen. Mom and Grandpa was sitting at the table drinking their coffee.

They saw I had bags under my eyes. They were confused about what happened. So I told them both of my concerns. They didn't see me weak but someone that cares.

As I ate breakfast, they kept trying to reassure me that it was okay and not to worry. When I finished eating and got up to do my chores, Mom stood up gave a bear hug and kiss me once on the forehead. She said that she was gonna do my breakfast chores and Grandpa didn't say a word. But I did notice that he did a small nod.

I grabbed up my satchel and was proceeded out to the foyer to leave for school. I accidentally bumped into my father; so I apologize for running into him.

He demanded to tell him where I was going to and that is when he grabbed the satchel from my arm. He opened it up to see what I had inside it. That was when Grandpa came into the area. He snatched the bag from dad and handed it back to me. He asked me if I have my phone on me and I informed him that I did.

Sawyer and I walked on the sidewalk to stroll down to school. He asked if I was alright after my conflict with my father. I just shook my head and not say anything about it. He knew that I was in an argument within myself. He tried to loosen me up. I do appreciate it very much but it's not helpful.

We got to the school house. Sawyer said that he will be here after school was over with and that was to be 4p.m.
