DESTINY

CHAPTER 10

"What the hell is she doing here?" Lindy screeches, I resist the urge to cover my sensitive ears. I stood frozen on the spot eyes glued on the point where King's big hand was wrapped around that bitch's tiny wrist which I feel like chopping off to stop the contact. I feel betrayed, I know he is not mine and I am being pathetic right now but I can't stop feeling so possessive towards this beautiful bundle of muscles and gorgeous body. I have a huge lump or is it a potato that's stuck on my throat, I almost heard the sound of my heart cracking.

The bitch followed the line of my eye to their point of contact, that plus the look of anguish on my face made her give a devious smirk and take a step closer to King. Before my thoughts go hay wire and the tears I've been doing a good job holding decide to grace them with their presence I mumble a quiet "excuse me" before rushing to the couch take my bag  and fly out of the house, everyone was  smart enough to move out of my way because I used the farthest way  I could use to leave and not be near the new lovebirds .

I threw a final glance at King, that snapped him back to reality because all this time it's like I was a figment of his imagination. " Kimberly? Hey wait!" He called with that masculine voice that makes my panties pool, I heard his footsteps following just as I reach the last steps, I need to flea here, I need space from him I can't use Isabelle's car because I have no key. I quickly scan the edge of the forest and without a second thought I sprint towards it, I need time to scold myself for acting like a jealous girlfriend infront of everyone that bitch will surely not let me hear the end of it. This is so embarrassing, I should just run to the end of the world and stay there till kingdom come.

"Kimberly stop running or you will get lost in the forest" I hear King

Ah, he is following. Don't let him  catch us  my conscience is having so much fun and I'm letting her play so I pick up my pace and turn corners so that I end up losing him, nowdays I run so fast I should really sign up to be an athlete and get gold medals for my country. When I am sure he is not behind me I slow down to a jog  and admire the beauty of nature, now I see why environmentalists become just that, nature is so calming I can't even put it into words because I don't have the correct concept. I inhale deeply to give my lungs a party, the air is so fresh I will start planting trees from now on , I sigh in contentment and wander aimlessly until I find a fallen log. It was slightly high so I jumped and use my hands to lift my body the rest of the way, I easily swing my right leg onto the log for stability so that I don't fall back down and break my neck, damn I'm super flexible and fit. I love how my body is nowdays,  even I'm figure becomes curvy day after day.

I observe my surrounding again and nod in agreement, this place is beautiful. So there are no lions and bears here, I'm so lucky running off like that, and for so long. Then realization hit " SHIT! , oh fuck me, I am super stupid, my goal earlier was loosing him, now I'm the one who is lost." I remove my phone from the bag to check my current location and frown at how far  I am from town, I zoom and locate the mansion, it's not that far but not close either. At least all is not lost and my phone has charge, I feel so proud for putting it in cable last night or else I'd be living like George of the jungle and make friends with monkeys untill the day I'd stumble back to civilization by chance.

'Don't worry I can always get you back safely my conscience said. She's so brave but she doesn't know I am the human here, the sane one between us two. Anyway is it even normal to be communicating with one's conscience like this , I just shrug, I guess it is because it's talking back to me. I'm not mad , or am I? no kim, you aren't 

' SNAP!' I  hear a twig break behind me, I turn quickly I almost fall off my perch but there was no one. " Good job Eric, you are trying to scare me and cause me to fall off to my death, well-done but how are you now on the other side from where we came from?" I ask towards the trees because King was still hiding somewhere there. When he did not answer I turn my attention to some flowers that were near me, I don't know their name but they were so pretty, I stretch my arm to pluck one, they must smell good but a pungent smell hit me, it was so disgusting and vile that I instantly scrunch my sensitive nose.

" Did you fall into a sewer or something? Dude you smell horrible. " I say as I turn but froze, behind me were two huge wolves  twice or even thrice the size of a normal dogs, they had deep red eyes almost the color of blood and both set of eyes were trained at me while they snarled viciously , I guess it's because of my very nice comment on their smell , I panicked and lose my hold on the log and fall backwards, I  unceremoniously hit the ground with a thud. 

In my panic I didn't even feel the impact of the fall, I quickly righted myself and stand. All the blood left my body when I realize how tiny I was facing them, I really have no chance here, this is the end. I haven't even gotten a chance falling in love yet, not even a first kiss. What was even the purpose of my life , it was so plain, I've just tried friendship about one hour earlier and it has lead me straight to my death. If I am going to die anyway I might as well go down like a heroine.

I square my shoulder and look at the two beasts head on but noticed a burly man emerge from the trees stack-naked. He was so dirty and unkempt that for a second I doubt if the stink came from the wolves or from him, my eyes remained on his face not wanting to wander downwards or I'd be scarred for life, please save my virgin eyes. Maybe I have more life after all, maybe he can save me, maybe he is George of the Jungle, hope sparked within me.

But he gave a nasty, victorious smile that made me want to coil into my self and die because realization hit that I am done for. "Hello kitty,how is it possible that you can smell us? " he say eying me with those disgusting leacherous eyes that I feel  like gouging out. " Anyway did  you just call out to Eric King? You are even on first name basis with him, this is really a pleasant surprise. You even made our works easy by loosing him, now your are just a pretty human girl and we are here for some fun. She must be delicious, isn't it boys?" He directed that to the wolves who somehow modded their heads in affirmation.

The tip of his tongue jut out and he dragged it from one corner of his lips slowly to the other as if  a very delicious meal has been served and I know that meal is me. Crap! Why am I like this though. He made my stomach churn I distaste " your stupidity is our reward, we can have our way with you and no one will save you." That made me bend over and throw up right there infront of them, I have bitter taste of vomit in my mouth but I have bigger things to worry about. " "Have  some fun boys " he announced like a proud father and start to guffaw, the two wolves took a step towards me , just when my panic was about to blow through the roof the wolves whine and take couple of steps back with their heads down. I shamelessly though they are finally afraid of me

" yeah, back off cowards before I rip your stinky meats off your hides and feed it to the vultures." I stood to my full height to appear threatening and hold my hands across my chest and smirk. But I realize all three set of eyes were looking at a spot behind me.

Oh! Shit.
