Chapter 113
"It seems you have a history with that girl right?" I inquired reflecting on the memories of Ryan's sudden exit from the party that's almost over by now.
"It's a bit awkward to let you know what happens in my life because none of you would understand a bit of what I'm saying"
"Give me... Let us handle that aspect, just tell us what we want to know"
"What do you want to know?" Ryan's questions made it seem like he wasn't ready to tell us anything.
I wanted to know everything and deserved to know everything because I'm his friend.
"Ok fine if you don't want Jaden to know, he can leave while you tell me”
"Hey what's that supposed to mean?" Jaden whispered.
"Yes, that'll be better. I don't want a third party since you're already my second party" Ryan smirked.
Jaden grunted like a hungry dog set on loose. He stormed out of the room, Ryan rushed and locked the door. He opened up his shelf.
This is the same shelf he didn't allow me to touch or come close to. What's he about to show me?
"I know you're scared but please don't be"
I gulped down my breath, I was excited and at the same time scared as hell.
"That girl you saw earlier, dressed in a silver dress is the Alpha of The Night watch"
How would a girl be The Alpha of a pack?_
I asked myself that question, Ryan noticed my uneasiness and paused look.
He continued
"She's very young but she has all the abilities no one in the pack has. That's the main reason everyone vouched for her to be the Alpha. She became the Alpha at a very tender age and ever since no one has dared to challenge her weaknesses or take her position" "She's very powerful I must say" I conceded to his words as I filled myself with her wise words.
"Not only powerful, very smart and at the same time cunning. She sees her opponent's move before they even strike. She's been protecting us from attacks and we've amassed wealth. There's something I would like to tell you.It seems that some sentences in this chapter require you to read the complete chapters on Jo b n i b.com in order to avoid an incomplete reading experience.The last story about a boy, that's my story.
You remember the dishes I helped you to wash, I did it with magic, and also I repaired the pipes with magic. I even protected myself from that blast with magic.
I was deployed to this town on an assignment to discover someone who I would protect. I found you, I protected you so it's time for me to go. The curse is dawning on me. I'll be very old by the time I get home. So I want you to have this bracelet, it's my mother's own. My hand would be too weak to wear it so you have it. More so can you follow me to the backyard. I would like to burn all these books of black magic. If anyone masters the spells of this book. He'll be able to do the unthinkable." "Can't the curse be broken?" I asked hastily, removing the thoughts of Ryan leaving forever.
"It's unbreakable, it's a sealed curse and even if it's to be broken it's too late, my time's up" Ryan sighed in disbelief. He knew he was about to leave me for good but he didn't have the courage to do that and that's the reason why he stormed out of the occasion. "What you're trying to say is that you're the young boy that made weapons and became demon possessed and not only that but was cursed by an old woman" I tried to make do of the words I just listened to.
"Yes that's the real Ryan, that young girl you spoke with earlier was the old woman that cursed me. She only came to tell me that my time had elapsed. So I'll be leaving anytime from now. I just want to burn these books, that's my last wish. I'll miss you, can I hug you one last time" Ryan opted for a hug with his arms wide open.
"Let's fulfill it then" I said, trying to make him happy, as I hugged him.
He was feeling sad that he was about to leave the only friend he had in life. Tears filled his eyes as I helped him carry the books to the backyard.
I held my tears, wishing everything would turn out to be a prank.
Ryan walked brought an already lit candle, he placed it on his books and said
"I'm sorry mother that I used your spells for evil and that evil cursed me, my life, my dreams, everything... I just want to say I'm sorry and I'm burning these items to make sure no one ever gets his hands on it again. I wouldn't even allow innocent lives to get hurt again. I'm going to rest eternally, hope to see you when I get there"
Jaden walked to the backyard, I guess the burning smoke of that ancient ink brought him here. We stood behind him while he waited for the books to turn to ashes. It turned to ashes Ryan screamed
"Take me home"
A whirling wind blew around Ryan, shifting us aback. Ryan's ascended with the wind.
"Bye Hailey, take care of her Jaden" That was the last words of Ryan before he disappeared into thin air.
I couldn't hold my tears anymore, I cried, finding it hard to believe that Ryan had gone and would never return.
"So Does this mean that we'll never see him again?" Jaden asked as he wiped the tears off my face.
I tilted my head upwards, I found it hard to even say anything. The only man that took care of me to the extent that I even wished he was my mate had gone. "Let's go and pack your things you're relocating to my room"
"There's nothing to pack, let's go to your room, later in the day I'll come and pick my red dress and my phone that's all I have that's worth moving" I retorted, Jaden lifted me to his arms and carried me like a baby. The guests were leaving when Jaden walked past them. I glanced at the surprised look on Lord Perry's face. Shayne was surprised at his brother's action, while Riley just changed her gloomy face to a bitter lawn face.
I laughed hysterically, when I realized I was the reason for the sudden pause and change of mood.
"Thank you Jaden, I'll lay in your arms. The pillows are too strong for me"
"That's not a problem and besides I have a promise to keep. I'll definitely take care of you" Jaden conceded as he pulled off his clothes and enveloped me in his arms. I felt so sad and happy at the same time. I felt sad that I'll miss the presence of Ryan, and I felt happy that Jaden has a permanent change this time.
I slept like a baby in the arms of a father.
I woke up to the beautiful aroma of fried crunchy plantains, garnished with a hot, steamy water leaf sauce.
"Good morning darling, it seems you're awake because of what I prepared"
"Don't be so callous, you're not the one that prepared it" I couldn't believe the fact that Jaden could prepare such a beautiful dish as this one. I tasted it, it felt heavenly. "What do you have to say to prove you're the one that made this dish"
Shayne barged in without knocking. Jaden was about scolding her when I said
"Please let it slide, what do you have to say Shayne?"
"I saw Jaden in the kitchen, he's the one that prepared this meal and as I can see it's very tasty"
"Come and try it yourself" I said as I dropped the spoon for her to come and taste it herself.
She walked hastily, avoiding the stern looks of her brother.
"It tastes so beautiful, I wished I could have this kind of food my whole life. It's so delicious and at the same time nutritious... Jaden you're really perfecting your culinary skills" Shayne appreciated her brother's dish.
She looked hungry to me. I guess she must have spent the whole night trying to different sex positions with Silver. I knew she fell in love with Jaden's food so I said
"You can have it, it's all yours for the taking"
"Thank you so much Hailey," She hugged me, and carried the bowl in her hand forgetting the tray.
"You're definitely leaving something behind ?" Jaden asked as he stopped Shayne.
"Oh I totally forgot about that. I'll get it" Shayne affirmed as she walked back and collected the tray from my hands.
"Get dressed we're leaving in fifteen minutes"
Where are we going so early?" I retorted.
"We're going to get clothes for you, you can't spend your life in my pajamas" I realized that I was wearing pajamas but I remembered that I slept off wearing a black dress.
