A Tale Of Revenge And Redemption

15

TWO MONTHS LATER

LYRA'S P.O.V.

Nothing could have prepared me for seeing Zayn walking downstairs with his school bag hanging behind him and a frown on his face

“Well aren't you a cute little boy” He brimmed as he saw me and Katy looking at him and immediately downstairs while scaring the shit out of me, but he was fine

“Mama!” He jumped on me and I laughed.

“Are you ready for school?” He nodded his head while playing with Katy's almost gray hair and I laughed, “... Stop playing with your grandma's hair, come on let's get you something to eat” I placed him on his seat and I noticed Maverick walking down with a look of discomfort.

“Good morning people, where's my little boy?” Zayn's ears perked up, and I laughed at his excitement to meet Mave

“Good morning, are you alright?” I asked, feeling concerned as he gave me a kiss on the head.

“Nothing, I'm doing great”

“You don't look great!” I mimicked his voice and he laughed.

After a few minutes of eating I took Zayn to his school and headed straight to my workplace. My phone beeped, and I thought it was from an unknown number, but my heart skipped a beat as I read a text from an unknown number.

UNKNOWN NUMBER: I told you to watch your back, didn't I?

The air in my lungs got knocked out as I looked around but no one was familiar, the taxi wasn't taking a wrong turn and…

“Zayn…" I immediately swiped through my phone and called his teacher as I was far away from the school and wasn't the only one “... Miss Winston, is Zayn in class?”

“Yes ma'am, he is here and… Perfect” That didn't sound right.

“Thank you…" I hung up, and I handed everything to Dakota who was in the car with me “.... Get this to work for me please, I'll be a little late. Zayn might be in trouble… Stop the car” I paid the driver and immediately took another taxi without listening to what she was saying.

My heart raced as I asked the driver to go faster, and he did, lucky for us there were no police in the way. I paid him and walked into school and I saw a man dressed in walking out of his class along with him.

I walked closer to him and saw that it was George. He tried to get Zayn injured in order to stop me, but I held his hand and shook my head slowly, this wasn't fear, it was a warning and he took it well.

“Zayn, sweetie. Go to your please, Miss Winston!” I yelled out, and the woman came outside with tears in her eyes.

“Oh My God! I'm so sorry I couldn't… He …"

“I understand Miss Winston, take care of him please” I noticed the tear stain on his cheek, and it did nothing but fuel the fire that was already burning

I held on to George's hands for the sake of the kids and walked out of the school and towards the forest before letting my wolf claw out and digging it into his neck

He tried fighting back, but I kicked him where the sun doesn't set and clawed his thighs

“Listen to me, Lyra. I would rather not do this, I …"

“Shut the hell up, I know you would rather not do this and this is all Ragnar. Tell him I will burn him alive if he dares to send anyone to take my child or if he comes himself. Do not miss any word out George I will kill you and make sure Georgia never hears of your existence again!”  I pushed him to the ground and he groaned.
