Chapter 10
CHAPTER 10 CHAPTER 10
NOVA POV
I took my time getting home that afternoon because I wasn't sure if Evelyn had received a phone call about today
But when I got home the car wasn't there so I walked inside the house and it seemed pretty quiet. There wasn't any talking or yelling or anything
It was strange for Evelyn not to be home yet. But as I was about to go upstairs a hand grabbed me from the kitchen and I turned to look to the side and Henry was standing there
"Let go of me." I said
"I heard that you were a bad girl today at school." He said
"What?" I asked
"They couldn't reach your mother, so they called me." He smirked
"I was defending myself. If you want to believe anything else then go ahead." I said
"I'm just wondering if I should tell your mother. Unless you want to give me a reason not to." He said, starting to move his arm up and down my arm causing a chill to go up my spine
"Get the hell away from me." I said, pushing him away
"That wouldn't be very smart. You know how your mother hates for you to make trouble at school." He said
"Go ahead and tell her. See if I f*****g care. But if you think I am desperate enough to go near you just so you won't tell her, then keep
f*****g dreaming." I said
So he pulled his hand back and he tried to slap me across the face but
CHAPTER 10 s I ducked out of the way and he hit the door frame instead
He started screaming about how I broke his hand and he was thrashing around like a f*****g child. So I just chuckled at him and I walked upstairs and into my room where I closed the door and locked it
I knew that he was going to say that I did something to him when Evelyn got home. I really wasn't in the mood for that
I opened my window and I looked outside and I sat on the windowsill as I reached across to grab the tree that was right outside my window and I climbed out
I walked straight into the forest and I started walking around for a while until I came to a crystal clear lake that was reflecting the moon that was slowly coming across the sky
I was only there for a little while when I heard Jasper walking up behind me
"Can't a girl get any peace and quiet around here?" I asked
"I guess not." He said, sitting down beside me
"What the hell do you want Jasper? I just want to chill before I have to go home and face them." I said
"What's going on at home?" He asked
"Same old s**t. Different day." I said
"You did have a chance to leave them. You didn't want to." He said
But I looked at him skeptically
"And you know exactly why I didn't leave. Don't try and throw that back in my face." I said
"Sorry. Has Henry learnt to keep his hands off of you?" He asked. But I turned my head to the side slightly and Jasper looked at me weird
I placed my finger over my lips, telling him to be quiet. And he nodded
CHAPTER 10 his head
"They're coming up behind us." I told him through telepathy
"Who?" He asked
"The triplets." I said
"Alright. We'll pretend that we were on a hike." Jasper said
So we started talking to each other normally again once I knew that the triplets were behind us
They were being really quiet and I was surprised that they could even
find us here. I knew that they lived way on the other side of town in their own little community. Maybe they were out on a run or something
"So, which trail do you want to take tomorrow?" Jasper asked
"I might give it a rest tomorrow. I've got some other stuff to do." I said
"Are you going to be in trouble about what happened with Izzy?" Jasper asked
"Henry already said that if I did him some certain favors that he wouldn't tell Evelyn about it. So I told him to go to hell. So yeah, I'll get in trouble when I get home." I said. And he looked at me, with genuine concern in his eyes
"How much?" He asked
"Henry tried to slap me and he got the door frame. So I'm sure whatever happens will be when they get back from the hospital." I said
So he shook his head. He knew that this wasn't going to be good
Evelyn and Henry obviously didn't know anything about my secret life and I was just a normal teenage brat to them. They treated me like it. They didn't know about my extensive training or about the people that I knew
CHAPTER 10 ow
They were so ignorant when it came to me that I don't think Evelyn even remembers who my father is. Or if she does, she's never mentioned him
And when I asked about him when I was a kid, she'd fly off the handle and lock me in my room. She never wanted to talk about him
I stayed there for a while before I got up and I started walking back home. Jasper wanted to come with me but I told him not to bother. It'll just
be putting off the inevitable. So he left in one direction and I went in the other
When I got to the house I walked in the front door and as soon as I did a beer bottle came flying at my head and got me on the side of the face
I knew the triplets had followed me home. They were quiet, but not that quiet. I could still hear them. I just pretended not to
I fell back against the door and slid to the ground after the impact of the bottle hit me and I turned back to see Evelyn standing there
"You crazy bitch." I yelled
"You get into a fight at school and then you break your stepfather's hand." She yelled
"He broke his own f*****g hand." I yelled getting back up to my feet and feeling the side of my face where the blood was coming out
"And then you run away by climbing out of your f*****g window. Who the hell do you think you are?" She yelled
"I don't know Evelyn. You're the one that gave birth to me. Why don't you tell me who I am." I said. But she stood there shaking her head at me before she picked up a massive glass ashtray and she threw it at me, but I dodged it and it smashed against the wall
CHAPTER 10 =
"Why the f**k do I still bother with you?" She yelled
"You don't bother with me. The only time you show me any f*****g attention is when you think I've done something wrong.' I yelled
"You did." She said
"No. Actually, both of those things that happened today were self defense. And if your husband wasn't such a drunk then he wouldn't have lost his balance when he tried to hit me." I yelled
I tried to barge past Evelyn but he grabbed me by the arm and threw me up against the wall
She was holding me by the shoulders, so I kneed her in the stomach and she fell back and I tried to get up the stairs again but she grabbed my hair and pulled me back down the stairsThis material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
I got up to my feet again and she punched me in the face, so I kicked her in the stomach and she fell back against the other wall
Suddenly the door was kicked open and Koda, Tyler and Dean were all standing there, breathing so heavy that it looked like their heads were going to explode. But their fierce gazes were fixed on Evelyn who was still up against the other wall, away from me
