Enigma novel Chapter 17

That woman is scary as hell. I didn’t know that stupid bitch would go ratting about us to her parents. Now I am not even aloud to be near her. How am I supposed to get this empty feeling to go away? I don’t think they will allow me in their house ever again.

Uhh! I am so screwed.

The only way to get near that idiot is the pack gatherings which isn’t much. I would have to find another way to get near her. Maybe I can go to her school once in a while. They can’t stop me there from approaching her.

The door of the car slammed shut pulling me out of my dilemma. I looked on the back seat to find a very upset Francis and no Vivian.

“What happened to you? Where is Vivian?” I asked him.

He didn’t answer for a while. Fabian looked at me in question and I shrugged not knowing what the problem was.

“It’s all because of you.” Francis said looking at me with loathing and anger clearly visible on his face.

“Dude what are you even talking about? Are you in shock or what?” I joked.

“YOU. YOU ARE THE REASON WE ARE IN THIS SITUATION. THIS IS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU. I NEVER WANTED TO HARRASS ARIA NOR DID FABIAN. YOU PULLED US INTO THIS. YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE. JUST BECAUSE YOU HAD SOME SORT OF TWISTED INFATUATION WITH ARIA, YOU DRAGGED US INTO BULLYING HER.”

I looked at him shocked as he shouted in my face. How did he know about the weird pull I had towards Arabella? He started laughing menacingly as I looked at him dumbfounded. I looked at Fabian for help but he looked away from me.

“What? You thought we didn’t know about your messed up feelings for her. YOU BIPOLAR PRICK. YOU MADE THAT GIRL SUFFER WHEN SHE WAS ALREADY IN SO MUCH PAIN JUST BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT SHE HAD SOME SORT OF CONTROL OVER YOU. YOU SELFISH BASTARD.”

“How… how do you know that?” I asked him.

This day is getting better and better every passing second. Note the sarcasm.

“Your sixteenth birthday. You were drunk your ass off.” Fabian said looking at me with the same look as Francis. “You talked about all the messed up shit you thought about Aria. We were disgusted of you and wanted to stop everything but you said something about feeling empty when you couldn’t be near her for too long or some shit along the lines and we did saw it happen with our very own eyes over summer. You looked gaunt and had a very dark aura around you whenever you would go too long without being near her. So we went on with it like we didn’t know the truth. We thought you will grow out of it but that never happened and then the bonfire incident happened. We carried on with your activities just to keep an eye on you so you won’t go too far again. By that time, we knew something is really wrong with you. So we tagged along to keep Aria safe.”

I just looked at the two people sitting in my car in front of me in shock. The two people I considered my best friends think that I am messed up and hitched in the head. To top it all, they are siding with that slut.
