101 Lycan power …

Ramsey

I followed her scent and found her by a small secluded bench under the tall , arching trees , a distance away from the funeral hall .

She sat alone , her shoulders hunched with her face buried in her hands as she cried silently .

I stood there for a second , staring at her hopelessly .

I didn’t know if it was wise to console her or to give her space .

Deciding I needed to give her space , I took a step backwards trying to walk as stealthy as I could so I won’t startle her but suddenly , she looked up .

The moment she saw me , she rose to her feet , brushing away her tears and straightening her dress .

She didn’t say a word , but the guarded look on her face said enough .

She began to walk away but I chased after her , stepping into her path .

“ Lyla … Wait ! Please , don’t go .

She let out a bitter laugh .

“ Why ? Are you here to gloat ? To remind me that I don’t fit in too or is it to arrest me and keep me locked up ? What is it you want this time around , Ramsey ? ”

My mind flipped with fear at her insinuations .

For a moment , I felt so bad .

But I tried not to show it .

“ I saw you leave the hall … are you alright ? ”

“ Yes ! ” she said tersely .

“ Is there no reason I shouldn’t be ? ”

“ Of course not ! ” I shook my head .

“ It’s just that , today is your father’s funeral and as someone who has lost his parents , I know how overwhelming this can be and … ”

“ It’s not overwhelming for me , Ramsey , ” she stopped me mid – sentence .

“ I’m not crying because I miss my father .

I actually don’t .

I’m crying because I am so angry .

I had to listen to everyone come up that stage with fake smiles on their faces painting a picture of my father that I don’t know of .

That’s why I cried .

It was my turn to be surprised .

“ Oh … ” I nodded .

“ Ermm … surpising , honestly .
