Chapter 6 The Attack

"If I can't have you then I am going to kill you and no one will have you not even your mate" He screamed running in my direction at a quick speed...............

"Nooooo.....please save me" I screamed in a loud voice from my sleep, I sprang up from my bed I was sweating profusely just like in my dream. It's a dream but it seems too real like it happening live I use my hand to hold my head it banging heavily like I am hearing thousands of voices in my head.

"Aria are you okay?" I heard my mom's voice as my door went open and she ran inside with my dad following her behind. 'when did he return' I thought my eyes fixed on him.

"What happen to my baby," My mom said sitting next to me as she cup my face with her hand snapping me out of my thought.

"Mommy I had a bad dream I was been chased again" I mumble trying not to sound too scared.

"Don't worry dear everything will be fine I am here with you now?" my mom said pulling me into an embrace as I rest my head on her chest trying to snap all the images off my head.

"Mommy I am scared" I whisper under my breath my head still on her chest.

"Don't be scared dear I am here with you" she assured me caressing my hair with her hand.

"Come here," my dad said as I stand up from my bed and sat down beside him. "Don't worry princess everything we fine" he assured me holding my hand a slight smile curved on the side of his lips while I nod my head trying to be fine.

Well this is not my first time having this kind of horrible dream at times I always find myself being tied up in an empty room I will cry and scream for help but no one will come to rescue me at times in the midst of people I can't even recognize but today's dream was different I was being chased by Wolves and save by two big wolves.

"I will be outside waiting for you guys," my dad said jolting me out of my thought, he pats my mom on her shoulder and walk out.

I watch as my father leave his facial expression was a sad one I have never seen my father looking like that I could trace the sign of depression and panic on his face I know my father is passing through some challenges his face is becoming old and there are traces of wrinkle on his face giving his forehead a slight squeeze. Whatever it is I know it bothering him.

"Mommy is daddy okay?" I asked facing her.

"Yes he is fine and he just wants you to be good too," she said giving me a little smile while I smile back at her.

"Finish whatever you have to do and come out to join us for dinner," my mom said standing up from my bed as she walk out of my room.

I heaved a deep sigh as I stand up from my bed and spread the bedsheet properly making it look neat again. Maybe there is no need to bother myself about this dream maybe it is because of the werewolf book I was reading that is why I dreamt about werewolves there is nothing to be worried about Werewolves never exist I thought when suddenly my phone started ringing disrupting me from my thought.

I checked the screen and it was Alice that was calling me.

"Hello Alice," I said immediately I picked up the call.

"How are you doing?" She asked I pause and remain silent for a while not knowing if I should tell her about my dream but on a second thought I changed my mind I will not tell her now besides I am angry with her for not keeping her promise of coming to my house which the reason I collect the werewolf story that was making me to have a bad dream.

"I am fine" I replied in a low voice.

"Aria, your voice tells that I have offended you with the way you are sounding so calm and cool I am sorry for not meeting up with our agreement" she begged from the other end.

I smiled to myself, that is the truth Alice knows me well she knew that whenever I am angry either I act cool like nothing happened or I fire up like an angry dog I am glad my friend knows me so much our 10 years of friendship is not just for nothing I don't think I can ever meet someone that will understand me so much like Alice.

"And what stops you from coming?" I asked her.

"My mom" sent me on an errand to deliver some of her cakes," she said.

"Ok I am good now we see in school by Monday"

"Bye," I muttered cutting the call. I put my phone inside my trouser pocket as I walk out of the room.

Sophia, I think she is been affected by the other being inside her don't you think it right time we tell her everything" I heard my father's voice as I came out of my room because their room is next to mine.

I move closer to the door and placed my ear on the door eavesdropping on their conversation.

"No Edward we can't do that she is our daughter and it is our responsibility to make sure she is fine, telling her the truth will only break her heart" I heard my mom's voice making me worried and confused about what they are talking about.

"But it affecting her, Sophia, can't you see it she doesn't belong here" came my dad's voice again.

"Edward no, we not going to do such things so long Aria is here and she is taking the med properly I believe everything will be fine and she won't have to live with those beasts" My mom defend again but the truth be told I don't know what they are talking about but I knew they are hiding something from me.

"Spare me the trash Sophia for how long will she continue living on those medications seems you don't know the kind of species we are dealing with" he laughed then I heard my father hitting the table with a loud. "These people are strong with a good sense of smell they might trace her and find so it better we let her know now" What are they hiding from me I thought still trying to put their conversation together but it make no sense to me.

"No Edward it can never happen I can't let her repeat my sister's mistake she doesn't belong there and I am going to make sure I keep my promise" My mom yelled and with that, I heard her footsteps coming out as I quickly rush back to my room before I got caught.

But what sister is she talking about my mom doesn't have a sister she told me that.

I ran back to my room before my mother comes out as I try to put their conversation together I knew my parents are hiding something from me but I can't fathom what it is. Most times my father always comes back home before the weekend when he was supposed to close for work. We are always moving to different towns every time like there was something my parents are running away from which I don't know about.

Most times I always asked my mom why we are always changing the environment but she keeps telling me this is because of the nature of my daddy's work which I know is not the truth.

The worried look that is always on my dad's face told me that everything is not going fine and they are not ready to tell me what the problem maybe it because I am just 17 and I promise myself to confront her and make her tell me all the truth when I marked 18, especially the reason why I keep taking that Med when I knew that I hardly got sick but my mom told me that it is the medicine that is making me healthy and not falling sick.

"Aria hurries up and comes out for dinner" My mom's voice distracts me from my thought as I turn my head in the direction of the door.

I came down from my bed and walk out of the room towards the dining table which is already set for dinner. We prayed silently and were about to eat when suddenly we heard a loud bang on our gate. The sound must be so loud making us hear it all the way from the gate.

We Ignore the sound and start eating but the noise came again immediately this time it became louder making everyone pause. I squeeze my face into a frown when my stomach makes a rambling sound indicating that I was very hungry.

The color of my dad's eyes changed into red and pure anger, his Jew clutch in fear and his face holding a worried expression looking at my dad I know something is wrong and something bad is about happening his face hold all the expression of fear.

"Are you expecting a visitor?" My mom muttered facing him.

"No" he only nods his head.

"Daddy" I called in a low tone holding his hand as I noticed him standing up from his chair slowly.

"Shhhhh" he whispers facing me placing his index finger between his lips. And immediately I went mute as I and my mom watch him in silence as he took a slow step towards the door.

"Keep eyes on her and don't come out no matter what. In case you hear any strange noise make sure you run and escape through the secret trap door in the basement" he whisper to my terrified mother whose face was holding many unsaid words.

"Mom, what is going on?" I asked in a whisper my voice clouded in fear.
