Chapter 86
By the time they got to Mirabel’s dormitory, they found Austin in a very bad shape, he was looking weak and beaten, they did not know what to do as they felt sad seeing him in a bad shape. Mirabel could not do anything but cry throughout, she felt guilty because she was the reason that Austin and her stepped out that night she did not expect that they would meet the Ravens that night
“Calm down, Mirabel you will be fine, he will be fine, Austin is a werewolf he does not feel pain so matter how he is injured, his wounds will heal” Derrick said and reassured her as they held her hands
“This is all my fault, he did not want to go to that side with me, I was the one who forced him to go there, only to find out that they were there, they laid an ambush for us”Mirabel lamented
Stephanie hated the fact that she was not able to do anything for her best friend, it broke her heart so much, she felt so much hatred for the Ravens at this point.
” Is there not something we can do so these ravens will stop bugging us?” Stephanie said, clenching her fists together. She had so much hatred for them in her heart.
“Honestly I keep telling my brother to let us tell our father, he is the reason why all this is happening in the first place, maybe he can call them to order” Derrick said.
” Are you listening to yourself” Audrey said in anger, ” we can not tell Dad anything just yet, the man will get worried, I promise you I can handle this” He said further m
” You can handle what, is it until they kill everybody you love, that your eyes will clear” Stephanie said “you can’t keep saying you will solve it when there are no measures on ground to already solve this one” she chirped in
“Today it is Austin, only God knows who they would pick next, it is not possible to kill Austin because he is a werewolf too, what about the humans amongst us, what if they harm the people we love” Derrick said, it pained him that he could not do anything to stop the Ravens he wanted to shout at the loudest at the top of his lungs but he could not find his voice.
Suddenly his phone rang, he picked it up and found that it was an unknown number, he decided to pick it up.
“Heyyy, who is this?” he said as he picked up the phone.
“Wow, you do not know me, it is Sophie your babe anyway” Sophie said.
“Well can you blame me you are using an unknown number to call me, if I may ask why ma” he said and scoffed.
” I lost my phone , I’m sorry I just got another sim so I decided to call you with it, sorry I have not been available, mum wants to kill me with work and family issues” she said.
” Its fine I understand, I miss you Every Time but I am glad you are away for now, you don’t get to see this drama we see here almost everyday” Derrick said.
” What drama” Sophie asked as she had been kept in the dark about the drama going on in New York for a very long time.
“It is the Ravens o, they would not leave Audrey alone, now they have resorted to attacking his loved ones and friends” Derrick said.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
” Wait, wait, hope they have not touched Stephanie because they would hear it from me and my father” Sophie threatened as she was shocked to hear the news she just heard
“No, but soon because it is her they are targeting to attack” Derrick explained
” Should I come over to New York?” Sophie asked, she always hated the fact that she could not be near Stephanie and Audrey at this point because she knew that this issue with the Ravens would touch their relationship so badly and she did not want that to happen, they were her favorite couple.
“No babe, it’s fine we can handle things over here” Derrick said and blew her a kiss to show that he would not be able to talk to her for long as he had other matters to attend to , she understood and they ended the call telling each other “I Love you”.
Derrick then entered the room and saw that Austin had already sat up, he was not feeling as much pain as he felt when they came earlier.
” Hey man, sup, how are you feeling now” he said shaking him
“I am a better man, those people are angry though it feels like you offended them and they want to get back at you at all cost” Austin said.
Immediately Mirabel heard Austin’s voice she woke up from her sleep, she was not a heafvy sleeper, she ran to his side and started hitting him profusely
“You scum, why did you do what you did?” she hit him slightly on the back to the amusement of others, they all could not help but laugh at the display of concern Mirabel was showing to Austin.
“Y’all look like Mini Stephanie and Audrey, just that the difference between you guys is that Steph is more violent” Derrick teased
Mirabel kept throwing punches at Austin until he held her hand slightly. ” I am just recovering and you want to send me back to the hospital bed” he said and chuckled.
” I wish I can” Mirabel eyed him and sat across from him folding her arms
” It is like you don’t understand the gravity of what just happened if they had killed you, do you know what I would have faced or what the headline would read”she said to the group so that they would not all think she was going crazy.
Austin just drew her close and gave her a kiss on her forehead.
‘ let us all just forget this ever happened, I am happy I’m alive” he said and stood up preparing to leave.
“Where are you going” Audrey said holding him back
“Where does it look like I’m going, outside of course”Austin said , ” Besides we were supposed to go house hunting, so we might as well go for it now” he added in a playful manner.
” Well I can’t go house hunting with you, when you almost got killed for my sake” Audrey said pulling him back further
Austin was a stubborn person and always had his way whenever he wanted to but they were not going to let him have his way this time. After a lot of pressure and pleadings Austin decided to stay put at home and not go anywhere, not like he was not enjoying the attention they were giving him.
“You know you guys are just being unfair to me”Austin said, “if I wanted to end these people yesterday you very well know I will, it is just because I did not want to expose us that is why I endured everything” Austin boasted.
