Arranged Life - On Hold

#10 - Mates

"To say that one waits a lifetime for his soulmate to come around is a paradox. People eventually get sick of waiting, take a chance on someone, and by the art of commitment become soulmates, which takes a lifetime to perfect."

― Criss Jami, Venus in Arms

The next morning, I woke up on the bed, with the blanket on top of me.

Weird how I end up here. Hope I didn't sleep walk.

I slowly got up and I went to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

I went down stairs to the kitchen, because I was hungry.

"Bella, aren't you suppose to be in bed right now?" Mrs. Wood asked.

"No, why?" I asked.

"Don't you feel sick?" Mr. Wood asked.

"No." I said, "What's the matter?" All of those worry faces were around me.

"Let's talk about this after breakfast." Mr. Wood said. Tyler looked at me and I looked away.

The maiden made a heavy breakfast for me, I don't even think I could finish it. I quickly ate it anyways, shoving it in my face.

"Bella, are you sure you are feeling ok?" Mr. Wood asked.

"Yes, I am positive." I said and sat down on the couch when I was done.

"That's unusual," Mrs. Wood said and Mr. Wood nodded.

"What's unusual?" I asked.

The looked at me and said, "You are suppose to be sick after you eat the medicine. It is a pill to wake your inner self up." they explained.

"Wait, you mean the 'inner - self' is a werewolf inside me?" I asked.

"Yes, but I don't know why it is not working." they said.-

"Maybe if she eats it long enough, it will work." Mrs. Wood said, "The werewolf is probably deep asleep."

"Sure you took the pills?" Mrs. Wood asked.

"110 % sure." I said.

"I have to investigate on this case. This never happen before." Mr. Wood said and rubbed his chin.

"Is it possible that my wolf would never wake up?" I blurted it out by accident.

"Never, that never happens before. I don't think it is possible that it could happen, because it has to wake up. But in your case, the pill before the new one that I have prescribe, it for your wolf to calm down. We have to make the wolf fall asleep, because you don't know how to control it. The inner you is very wild and you can't control it. But the silver pill wakes the wolf up. Now that you are grown up, you are able to control it." Mrs. Wood explained.

My head spun.

"May I be excuse?" I asked.

They nodded, "I know this is a lot to sink in, but soon you will deal with it. Now go up stairs and rest for a wait."

I got up and headed for the stairs.

I walked into the room and threw myself on the bed.

I lay there on the bed thinking to myself. What happens if my wolf wakes up, but I still don't know how to control it?
