In that dream, his heart was missing. It would usually signify death
How could I tell him I had dreamt of him dying, without sounding like I was somehow involved?
I could tell he didn’t trust me. Whatever had happened between us this far, happened because of the

I never really was a good liar. The day Seth was caught sneaking me out, it only happened because I couldn’t lie my way out “You’re lying to me. Don’t take me for a fool, Sonia. It would be a very big mistake on your part.”
I couldn’t stop a smile from lighting up my face.
When he sent me a curious gaze, my smile only widened.
“How can I take you for a fool? I think it’s safe to say that so far, I’ve learnt a thing or two.” “Sonia, why do you have to make things so difficult” He sighed, and I saw the tiredness in his When was the last time you had a genuine sleep?” I asked, moving closer to him.

He eyed me casually. “Why do you ask?”
“You look tired”
I reached out for his face again, and my fingers grazed his eyes.
They say the eyes are the windows to one’s soul. I don’t believe that saying applies to you.”
He chuckled. “Why’s that?”
“You’re not an open book. I think you take pride in not being one.”
I checked his ever
eyes a little, and my fear was concerned. He was going to get terribly sick if he didn’t rest
“Take out some time to rest. I know you’re doing everything right as a pack leader, but sometimes, you need to take care of your health too.” Does your father take care of his?” He retorted, and I went tongue–tied.
There was no right way to answer that question, anyway

He didn’t respond, so I used the silence to scan his room with my eyes.
I wanted to know what he was like, and the best way to do that was to look at the things he surrounded himself y
with.

Even the walls and the floors held no stains.
He was a pristine, and cautious n
man. He was orderly, and liked his things to reflect that.

Our eyes locked for a few seconds, and I guess we were both wondering what the other was thinking.
“Your father made a choice, he suddenly spoke, much to my surprise.
“You heard from my father?!” I asked, my eyes bulging from shock.

father was capable of doing. Quite the contrary, because I wasn’t.
I just was used to hearing how he did things for the greater good. For the protection of those things he held dearest.
But how could allowing a man kill himself after relaying a message, be for anything other than a selfish reason? “You have nothing to say to that”
“I said a prayer for the poor man in my heart. No one should have to die in place of anyone.”
He laughed. It wasn’t a laugh filled with humour. Quite the contrary. His laughter was bitter, and filled with resentment.
I was filled with dread, because no matter how far we came, we would always circle back to the beginning.

His eyes reddened, as he stared piercingly at me.
“An eye for an eye,” he replied.
“What does that mean? This time, I was the confused one.

I didn’t know where that came from. But it was the first name
