SARAIN’S POV
Someone violently shakes me awake from my deep sleep, I groan as I feel my wounds hurting
I slept on a mat laid on top of haystack. They gave me a clean blanket to keep me warm so my sleep wasn’t that bad.
You better be feeling well because I need you to accompany my daughter to the market. The woman I had met yesterday says standing by my
“I am no
not feeling that good, but I will be fine once I take my pain killers.” I answer groggily. Who is your daughter and where is this market?”
Her name is Tiffany, not her real name but it’s what she likes to be called She is your age. As for the market, it’s not far, she will show you!” The woman answers. Now take your painkillers and come to the house for breakfast, we will also have to find you a better dress because Tiffany won’t want you to follow her looking like this.
I step away from the haystack, picks my pills from the floor and carries them to the water tanks lined up along one of the walls of the barn
I turn on a tap, tosses the pills to the back of my mouth and uses my cupped hand to scoop water into my mouth.
The woman is already gone by the time I am done swallowing the pills I walk out of the barn, look out and realise there are more homes around than my eyes had bothered to notice last night,
I make my way to the main house and knock on the door.
The radio is still at it’s top volume. S So I give up knocking and pus the door open. There is more people inside the house today than last night.
Apart from the hulk that wanted to send me away, there are two boys playing with toy guns around him. His wife is seated on a table, sipping
coffee.
I can tell the two adults are listening to the radio, a reporter is reading out news.
VCome in, take a sit while I get you something to eat.X“. She says when she spots me standing at the door.
I move in slowly, find a spot on a couch and sit. VRaphael, Brian, this is Sarah, she came last night and will be staying with us to help us with the work.” She introduces me to the kids.
The older one stares at me with curious eyes. “What’s your other name?” He asks,
What do yo
you care what her other name is, just call her Sarah” The mother snaps.
“The name of the lost mate of the Angel Prince is also called Sarah, I just want to know if Macron is her other name. The boy answers and my heart jumps in my chest.
That one is a rogue, not a princess” The man says snidely.
The boy frowns and moves away from me. His mother comes out from the kitchen with coffee and a small piece of bread
I have to take one at a time because I can’t use my broken hand. It makes her irrigated as she has to keep holding the coffee as I take the bread and place it on my lap.
A door clicks open and in walks a tall beauty in a nice dress. She has a phone in her hand and is typing a message.
She looks up and spots me and a smile curves on her lips. “Hey!” She says coming to sit by my side.
“Hello“” I say.
You’re the girl that came last night! I am glad to have another girl here, all my neighbours are boys. At least you and I can have a girl talk.” She says and I smile. I have never had a friend before, hope she won’t despise me.
I am Sarah.” I say.
Tiffany.” She shakes my good hand, you have some unique features, can’t wait to see you when you heal\”
You can buy her meds from the clinic, we need her to get well fast so she can start working. The Mother says.
Yeah, but I am certain she wom be working for long because every man will be lusting after her once her wounds heal. Tiffany responds. I think. she just wants to make me feel good about my scars.

Chapter 20
Unless that man can pay us for taking care of her, she is not going anywhere?” The hulk says with finality.
I am not exactly looking forward to running away with a man who isn’t iny mate, besides, Tiffany wasn’t serious about my beauty. I too know that.
“I have a dress for you to wear, hurry so we can find the best supplies.” She says to me, acting like her father didn’t say anything.
I quickly eat the bread and gulp down the coffee. Tiffany leads me out of the room, past a small kitchen and to her room. She has a big closet full of
clothes.
My mate likes me to look good, so he sends me money for clothes. She explains handing me a white cocktail dress. Put that on, let’s see how you look.
She leaves the room to give me privacy, Changing with a broken hand proves impossible, I have to call her back inside to help me with the zipper.
Look at you! Can’t wait to see you after you take the meds. She says excitedly
are this meds? What do they do?” 1 ask.
They stimulate the rate of phasing, so that if you are yet to phase, you will have your woll by tomorrow and all your wounds will heal.” She answers. That’s quite astonishing! Should I try them?
What happens if I am not a werewolf, will I still phase?” I ask.
“Don’t know, do you think you’re an angel?V
Hmm! What am I? I have no wolf, the Angel Prince said I am his angel, complicated.
I don’t know, may be we will see after I take the meds.” I say.
I have never seen an angel before, I hear the Angel Prince is coming here to find his lost mate, can’t wait to see him!” She says, my limps shake.
Where did you hear that?”
“My Mate texted me this moming, he works at the Pack House. She answers
What exactly did he say?” I ask,
“You’re so curious! Seems I am not the only one that yerns to see the man.” She chuckles and winks at me.
I can’t tell her the truth, so I simply smile. The Angel and his men are searching the whole of Black Wolves Pack, and even the Alpha offered half of his men to help, Good thing is, they will be starting here, in this village. She says, looks at my face so I forge a smille.
Fuck! I will have to run again, but go where! I am so tired and sick!
Let’s go!”
I follow Tiffany out of the house. We make our way across the neighborhood until we are finally looking ahead at a small market. Goods are spread out almost at every available space and customers struggle to fit in the small paths lefts for their passing
Tiffany grabs my good hand and tags me forward. Let’s go get you the meds first She suggests
She leads me along the paths until we come to a stop in front of a small clinic. A middle aged woman with wide eyes smiles at us.
“My friend have a problem with phasing, she is injured and can’t heal, can you give her something to solve her problem!” Tiffany asks.
“Yeah, you came to the right place. The woman says smiling, then she turns her attention to me. “When were you supposed to phase, dear?”
I count my fingers as I do the math It’s four months since my eighteenth birthday.” I answer, “What happens if I am not a werewolf?” I ask.
“Ha! Ha! You think you’re an angel?” She scoffs. “Anyway, the pills are supposed to stimulate y
your phasing process. Whatever you think you are, you will phase after twelve hours.”
I nod my head. She scoops two tablets from a bottle full of white pills. She hands the tablets to me, then slides a glass of water across the counter
I swallow the tablets and hands her the glass. Hope I phase into something soon.
“Good luck with becoming an angel!” She says with a smile. Tiffany pays for the service and we walk away.
She selects a number of goods from the many sellers, within a few minutes we have four bags full of foods and groceries to carry. Too bad I got only one good land.
Chapter 20
“Interested in today’s news?” A man hawking what looks like local newspapers holds a piece of paper in front of our faces,
“No thanks” I say without looking at the paper.
“Yes, let me see that?” Tiffany snaps the newspaper from the man. “This is true?!” She exclaims looking at the front page.
Urgh! Can’t she see we have enough load already?!
“Yeah, the bitch is dead!” The man answers her. “You pay first before reading though
Tiffany gives him some coins and he walks away. “Look at this, can you believe it?” She holds up the newspaper in front of my face. I am not interested in news but the photo on the paper almost makes my heart stop.
That’s the face of my sister looking… dead! This can’t bef
There is a knife protruding from her bleeding chest, a crowd of people surrounds her, including the Angel Prince himself.
I snatch the paper from her hand, quickly reads the headline. “Irene Macron Finally Executed
The
paper falls from my grasp as my limps grow weak. Tiffany catches me before I hit the ground.
“They killed my sister! I cry out without thinking. “He executed my only sibling! I will kill that son of a bitch!”
Tiffany covers mouth. “What the hell Sarah!! Are you going mad or what?”
“That’s my sister!” I cry pointing at the paper.
“What You’re you’re Sarah Macron? I thought you said you’re a rogue?”
“I lied” I say, tears flowing down my cheeks.
“Oh God! You’re the lost angel? Why didn’t you tell us? Tiffany almost screams out loud. “We must get back home, right now!”
She grabs my hand and pulls inc forward, leaving the goods she had purchased behind. “Wait! I need the paper” I say and she pauses long enough for me to pick it up.
