Chapter 51
“Chill calm down, I just got to my Dorm, I did not go to my Dorm straight, I had some errands to run before I get here , so babe I’m sorry I was just saying I would call you when I’m done with everything” he said and waited for a reply but he heard none.
“Babe are you there?” He asked and laughed ” how could women be this petty” he thought to himself and chuckled
“What did you say?” She asked and rolled her eyes.
“Ooh now you heard me right” he said ,” babe come on now seriously don’t tell me you are angry because I did not call you ” he said and pleaded.
” I’m not angry babe” she said and smiled.
“Alright that is good to hear, so take care of yourself, I need to unpack, I love you” he said and hung up
“He could not even allow me say , I love you back” she muttered to herself.
She continued cleaning up her room, by the time she was done she was very tired and famished so she decided to order take out she was about calling the restaurant to send in her food when she heard her doorbell ring, she walked up to the door and looked through the hole, she noticed it was a delivery guy who was standing right outside so she opened it.
“Delivery for Stephanie ” he said
” Yes I am Stephanie,” she said excitedly.
Audrey had known that she would be very tired so he ordered food to be sent to her before she finished cleaning her room so he told them to send it before 7pm.
She was so happy when she got delivery of the food. Audrey knew the way to her heart each and every time, he kept proving it to her. She opened the pack of food and found that he had ordered Pizza and some Spaghetti stir-fried with chicken nuggets. .
” Thank you for the food” she said over the phone when she called him
” What food” he asked feigning ignorance
“Ooh so you want to behave like you did not send me pizza today” she said rolling her eyes at him if she were with him she knows she would have punched him in the stomach or something
” Oooh that you are welcome, at least you called to thank me” he said and chuckled because he knew that he had stepped on a nerve.
” Have you called your family that you already arrived at school” she asked
” No, no I will call them as soon as I drop your call” he replied to her, she was going to make a whole lot of issues out of it if he did not call them so she made sure he did as soon as he dropped the call.
” So I will talk to you later, I have a long day ahead tomorrow and I need to eat this food before it gets cold” she said hanging up the call.
After she had eaten the food , she prepared for her night shower and headed for her bed. She needed to sleep; she could not see anybody again that night, not even Mirabel. She knew her best friend would kill her for not calling her as soon as she got to school but she cared less, all her anger would melt away as soon as she showed her what she got for her as a present.
She tried to find sleep but it just was not coming, she tossed from right to left on her bed but sleep was not coming, her mind went back to all the adventures she had back in Ohio, she never imagined she could take such a risk her parents did not even know she had left New York, she remembered Derrick, Sir Roland and Sophie and hoped they were fine including the nanny and butler, she remembered that she did not see the butler when she was leaving and wondered what could have gone wrong.
” Maybe he was on leave” she thought to herself and shrugged off the thought. After much thinking , sleep finally crept in and she was able to get some sleep.
Audrey on the other hand was a night person so after he had ended the call with Stephanie he ate his food and set out for a club. He had earlier called Austin to let him know that he was back in New York and if he would be available for a boys’ night out. When it was time he set out of campus to the nearest and most popular club in town, he carried his debit card in case there was need for them to Lodge in a hotel instead of coming back to campus that night.
He could not make a decision on the club to go so he picked up his phone and ordered a ride, telling the driver to take him to the club he went to the day he met Stephanie and called Austin to meet him there.
“Hey broooo”Austin shouted when he arrived, “what’s up?”; he asked, slamming his hands into Audrey’s giving the usual handshake they normally do when they have not seen each other in a long while.
“How was the trip” he asked , ” you look like you had made fun with bae” Austin teased
“Well it was fine, I had fun too with her ” Audrey said blushing
” You are a guy you have to man up, I know you are all loved up but don’t let anybody know that a woman has you already still looking single” Austin said teasing his friend.
Austin enjoyed teasing him especially when they spoke about Stephanie.
” We are werewolves remember, we don’t have time to flirt with humans we just have to find our mate and love you on her” he reminded Austin
” That is true , come to think of it how is your dad the alpha, I heard he has been cof bad health recently” Austin asked out of concern
“Bad health?” Audrey asked surprised, ” and if I may ask where did you get this information from” he asked further.
” Some wolves said they saw the pack doctor come out of your house on two occasions so they felt he was sick or something,” Austin replied.
” Well my dad is fine, the reasons why we invited him to our house isn’t because of him, a lot of things happened while I was home that is why we needed the pack doctor considering the fact that we had a human amongst us” Audrey replied
Austin was surprised as to who the human could be as the last time they both checked they both came from a long lineage of werewolves before it dawned on him that Stephanie might have been the human he was talking about, she most likely did not change. m
“Human, so you mean Stephanie did not transform? ” he asked.
” Yes she did not , I am even scared I don’t know what that means because I am sure I bit on her” he said out of fear.
” You really do not have to be scared , she would transform at her own pace ” Austin reassured his friend.
After they both spoke about Audrey’s trip to Ohio and He narrated the turnout of events at home, they decided to order a bottle of red wine and headed for their various dormitories but Audrey said he did not want to go to his house after a while so after much argument they both paid to Lodge in an hotel for the night they next day they would go back to their dormitories.
“I know I have a lot of things to make up when I get to class tomorrow” , Roland said to Austin
” Don’t worry, you will be fine, you were just away for a week, you should be able to meet up” Austin reassured him that he would make it .
Soon after, they both decided to go to bed as it was already very late, Audrey thought of putting a call through to Stephanie to let her know about his adventure that night but he held off from calling her, he would call her in the morning when she was not so grumpy and will be wide awake to listen to it.
