Promises

Chapter Eleven

Ricky's P.O.V. :

            Not good not good not good...

            I chanted in my head when I realised I've been intruding in Megan's mind so many times. But this time, I was careful.

            I had to be as careful as this the next time or even better!

            I parked outside Alison's kindergarten and opened my door as I quickly rushed over to Megan's side of the car and opened the door for her. Then I opened the door for Alison as my car has a child safety lock.

            "Come on Teacher Megan!" Alison pulled Megan's hand and she smiled down at my sister as her other hand rubbed her swollen womb.

            I walked behind them and saw 2 of Megan's colleagues coming out to welcome Megan.

            "Megan! You're back! You're feeling better already?" Fiona, the Nursery form teacher, asked Megan.

            Megan blinked a few times at her colleague before her hand suddenly found mine and she gripped it. I rubbed slow circles on the back of her palm and feel her heartbeat slowed down.

            She's nervous...

            "I'm sorry but I can't remember anything..." she said in a small voice and Tessa, the K2 form teacher, gave a sympathetic look.

            "So sorry. We heard about your accident. But thank god your children are all fine.." Tessa said as Fiona smiled warmly at my wife.

            That's right, I lied to the whole neighbourhood that Megan fell down. Well they're humans so I can risk telling them the truth right? Only the children in the pack, and that includes Alison, thinks Megan had a fall that's why she lost her memory...

            "Alright Alison, let's get you to class!" Fiona said in a cheerful voice as she led Alison into the kindergarten with Tessa following behind her, waving at us.

            "I'll pick you up at 5!" I called out to my sister loudly before hearing an "ok" from her in my head.

Travis's P.O.V. :

            "No choice..." I mumbled. "Merge with Shadow Clan then..."

            Kyle gave an approving nod but my parents suddenly stood up and snarled at me.

            "You can't be serious son! There has to be another way!" my father hissed at me.

            "We tried to invade them once! It'll be humiliating for us if we request to merge with them after what happened last time!" my mum snapped.

            I raised my eyes around the conference room with my brown pupils fully dilated then they landed on my parents.

            "I make decisions that is best for Thunder Clan! And if we don't merge with Shadow Clan, we're going to be short-handed and outnumbered by the hunters!!" I said in a dangerous voice.

            "There has to be another way!! Or maybe merge with another clan!" my father insisted as my mum glared daggers my way.

            "River Clan and Wind Clan are far away from us and the nearest to us is Shadow Clan! Besides, River Clan and Wind Clan are not facing the same problems as us so it'll be fruitless to discuss this matter with them!!" I stood my ground and my parents suddenly went quiet and sat back down in their seats, not being able to retaliate back.
