The Prowl

Chapter 9- Evil Around Us

I woke up in my room, confused on what had actually happened. I sat up and went into my bathroom and looked at my reflection in the mirror. a horrible bruise spread across my cheek.

I ran downstairs to where I find my mother making a sandwich.

"Oh thank god you're up sweetie, I was worried he could've put you in a coma or something!" she said walking to me and hugging me tight.

"Wait you know?" I said shocked and very confused of what is happening.

She grabbed ahold of my hands and walked to the couch. she sat down with me.

"Sweetie, you know who that was right?" she asked

I shook my head no.

"That man was your Biological father. he's been in hiding because a few people saw him in wolf form tha-" I cut her off

"WAIT YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT YOU KNOW ABOUT WOLF-KIND?!" I raised my voice.

She clears her throat. "they're called Wolf Bloods. Your father is one. a couple of people saw him and he ran. he heard about Malikai and his friends. he doesn't like them much and your father is the King's Best Wolf. There are many Wolf Bloods working for the King but Malikai and his friends aren't one of those many Wolves. I know about your accident and that's how you don't remember anything and I assume Malikai told you?" I nodded "baby girl now that your father isn't in hiding, you know what that means right?" I looked at her in the eyes worriedly. "he has to move in with us."

I stood up. "oh hell no, that monster is not coming into my safe place. do you see this fucking bruise on my face mom?! he cannot come here. I'm not going to have this. What happened to Dave? How is he going to deal with this mom?"

"Dave left me." she said quietly.

I widened my eyes.

"How long was I out from that blow?" I asked sitting back down.

"You were out for 4 hours but he left me this morning through text. he already filed divorce papers" she explained.

"Oh my gosh mom I'm sorry." I comforted her.

"Don't be that fucker should rot in hell anyways."

"Okay, then what about Malikai? what happened to him?"

"He dropped you off here then said he "had to do business"."

"Hold that thought" I ran upstairs to retrieve my phone and I got 3 messages from Malikai saying he'll be out for a few hours. My phone buzzed in my hand saying that he'll be here in 2 minutes and to get the First Aid Kit ready.

I rushed downstairs and into the closet to get the Kit and bolted into the bathroom with the kit and a towel.

I heard a knock on the door and sprinted to open it. Malikai stood there with cuts and bruises on his face and knuckles.

"Oh my god" I breathed out.

I took his hand and sat on the counter with him standing in front of me and got the rubbing alcohol out of the kit. I started dabbing the alcohol against a cut on his eyebrow.

"What the hell happened Malikai?" I asked.

"Beat up your father." I continued to cleanse his wounds.

"'Baki?" Malikai tried getting my attention while I was cleaning his knuckles.

"'Baki." He tried again but I was too deep in thought.

"Tsubaki!" my head shot up looking at him.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Your eyes are purple. What's bothering you?"

"I hate seeing you in this state."

"That bastard deserved it."

"I don't care! I care about you more than a stupid bruise on my cheek. Besides I can't escape him anyways."

"What do you mean 'Baki?"

"He's coming to live with us." I looked down.

Harry walked out of the bathroom.
