I need to help Marca. The guy’s a jerk, but he's not half bad if you push by the fact that he’s constantly pushing my buttons and tormenting me. Plus…if these memories are real..then me and Marca could actually be friends.
I sigh and flex my fingers. So. His position. I gotta talk to someone on this council. Which means..I gotta face Theo. I look down at her. I want to help her..I knew I felt a certain way about her for a reason. I knew that there was something else going on between her and I. And why I felt so attached.
It was because we knew each other. Because we were friends. But for some odd reason we forgot. And I want to know why.
Why make us forget. I take in a sharp breath and slide my hands into my pockets. “I have an idea of how to rig it.” Her brow arched. I nod. “You won’t like it..so I won’t tell you-“
“Anwyll-“
“Trust me..whatever it is, just..trust me. I’ll be okay..and I’ll make sure Marca comes out alive..” I nod. “I’ll make sure all of you do..” I nod chewing the inside of my cheek. She turned her head slightly. “What are you up to..?” I just smile and take in a slow breath before taking her hand and swinging it side to side. “Just leave it all to me..” I led her back.
I look down to see her pursing her lips. I just smiled knowing she wanted to smile. “You better stop flirting before Marca sees..” I just suck my teeth. “Me? Flirting? I don’t flirt. I just say it like it is..” she scoffed and tugged her hand free. I grin before instantly coughing and rubbing my throat at the sight of Marca death staring at me.
“Joe. Steph, Marie. Why don’t you take my sister to our spot. I need a word with Anwyll,.” I clench my jaw, sighing. I dip my head as the group slowly moved away.
“What’s going on? Who’s the cutie?” The one who keeps being called Steph mumbled. “He’s not cute!” Enya hissed. I snicker before coughing when Marca stormed closer. “What’s going on..? Between you and my sister?” I shrug. “We’re friends. Like I said.” He narrowed his eyes. “Friends.” I nod. “What’s so Wrong with that? I thought we were cool..”
“Yeah we were never cool! Just because I’m nice to you once doesn’t mean you can go around fucking my sister!”
“Marca!” We snap our heads over to Enya. “Please. Enough..let’s just enjoy this..fight later..” I glance at Marca. He let out a quick growl before looking at me. “This. Is not over..” he turned to leave but I quickly grabbed him.
I give him a hopeful smile. “For the record. I’m not interested in sleeping with you're sister. We’re friends. Like I told you. And based on my memories, hers, and the photo. We were friends too..” I look him over. “I just hope we can go back to that..” I mumble letting go and walking to the group.
Look. His sister is cute. There’s no denying that. But my focus isn’t on wanting to date her. My focus is on getting our memories back so we can figure out what truly is going on. “What was that about?” Enya hissed, swinging arms with Marie. “Yeah who are you? I’ve never seen you in my life” I pause and press my lips together while looking at Enya. “A friend..” I said slowly. “From?”
“We’ve known each other since middle school..” I nod quickly. Which. Wasn’t a lie. I think..Enya nods. “Y-Yeah! Marie, Steph. This is Anwyll..” they both raised a brow and casted quick glances at one another. “So..” Marie began. “Why haven’t you mentioned him before? Hm? Especially about the fact that he was so cute..” Steph rolled her eyes and made a gagging look.
I give them both a nervous smile before feeling my skin crawl and itch. I grit my teeth and quickly arch my back. Damn these clothes. They gave me a strange look and I just smile while looking around for some shade. “Are..you okay?”
“I-I’m fine. Just hot..” I nod glancing at Enya for help. She pressed her lips together and gestured forward. “Come on guys. We need to get off campus before the security guards do their rounds..” they gave me one more look before skipping off. “So Enya, what have you and you're brother been up to? Have you started you're school yet,”
She quickly jerked her hand out and I shiver and chilled when it suddenly became cloudy. She leaned in close. “We’ll have to hurry. I can only make it cloudy for a short time.” I nod, flapping my clothes in an attempt to cool them down.
“Well fuck! Is it going to rain?” Josiah frowned. “Not if we get inside fast enough..so let’s go!” Marca quickly grabbed hold of him and together we rushed the group down the street and to some food shop called McDonalds.
“Ah! Are those the one and only killer twins?” I wrinkle my nose as the two smirk walking over to the cashier where they Smack and shake hands with the cashier. “In the flesh and blood!”
“Where have you guys been?” I look around as the two chat with the cashier.
I sigh softly while moving to a booth. I sat down before jumping when their friends quickly trapped me in.
Shit.
I bob my head softly. “H-Hi..”
“So, you know the twins..” they all ask. I shrug. “I guess..” it’s complicated. “Why?” I narrow my eyes. “Why? Because that means you know the most about them..” I look away for a second before looking back. “I..I’m lost..”
“Look..we have known them for like..two years. And we only know their names, and the things they don’t like..or they do like.” They all shrug. I press my lips together. “We haven’t even been to their house..” wow..
“They're so secretive.” I glance at them. “Boy do I know it..say..” I lean on my elbows. “Enya..is she always so…” I tilt my head. “Distant, hard headed, a bit rude..?” I try to give away the fact that they beat me to it. They share a soft laugh. “Yeah..that’s the twins for you..it’s not just you if that’s what you're asking..”
I nod softly. It definitely helps. “But I’m sure that since you've been friends with them for a while, you know that that’s just how they are..” I nod “oh for sure..and I’m guessing the name ‘killer twins’ is for their aggressive nature” they all blow out and I chuckle already knowing the answer. “Everyone knows not to get on their bad side. Even the people here..Marca fucking curbed a guy for picking on rebel.” I felt my teeth clench with pain.
“Rebel?” They gesture to the cashier. I look him over before feeling his eyes flick my way. I felt a shrill and I grind my teeth together. Of course..another werewolf.
But he’s an omega..how interesting. “Hm..”was all I said as they walk back over. “The usual for everyone?” Enya smiled. They all nod. Then she looks at me. I just shrug shyly. I don’t know what this place is. “Come..” I carefully make my way past the people where I follow her to the cashier. I ignore the antagonizing glare from Marca and I wave as he takes my spot. “So..curbed a guy hm..?” I lean against the counter. She nods as if it wasn’t serious. “Yup. It was either him or us..” I tilt my head. “Huh.”
She took in a sharp breath and turned to face me. “We..may or may not have been getting hits. It Started after Orris’s death. Hasn’t happened in a while though. He was the last one. We made sure of it” She shrugged. “We caught him..and Marca Curbed his ass..” I tense than flinch. “W-wait but-“
“Just a cover story.” I slowly look away. So they’ve been getting hits? I’m only figuring this out now?? This changes so much!
She puts in the orders and looks at me. I look at her before realizing what she wanted. I lean in. “I don’t eat solids..” her eyes flicked down and she tilted her head. “Are you hungry..?”
“A bit..” I turned away, eyeing her freind group. “So thank you for getting me out of the middle..” she grumbled and I heard the rattle of the cashier popping open than close. “That’s not funny.”
“Never said I was joking..” I felt her eyes turn to me. I raise my hands. “I’m not interested. I’m sure they’re blood wouldn’t taste good..” she moved me to the other side where we waited for their food. “And whys that?”
“Because their blood is tainted..”
“Tainted..?” I nod. “It’s been touched by a werewolf..” She looked at me. “By you and Marca. You’ve been around them. So you're scent is wrapped around them like a blanket. It’s enough to deter a vampire for miles”
“But i thought you said our blood tastes good..”
“Yeah I said you. I never said them. Now..I don’t know what it taste like simply because I never tried them. But from what I’ve been told, marking a human with your scent changes the way they taste. But.” I shrug, picking up a tray. “Like I said. I wouldn’t know. Not many werewolves mark humans with their scent.”
I follow her to the table. I set everything down and they cheer and began to distribute the food. “Hey can you run and get napkins..” I nod and was about to zip over before instantly stopping myself.
No..nope. Can’t do that here. I clear my throat and walk. I reach the napkins before realizing that the omega was here. I clear my throat softly and try to keep my cool. Omega or not he was still a werewolf. Which meant I couldn’t trust him. Not in the way I trust the twins.
I grab some napkins and turn away. “What are you doing with them?” I pause and look his way. My eyes were dark and full of alertness in case he tried anything. “What?”
“The twins. Enya and Marca..what are you doing? You know you're not allowed near them..” Exuse me? I look him over He was fixing and restocking the napkins and condiments. “What-“
“You're not allowed near them..” he repeated. His demeanor slowly changing. “You're not allowed near them”
“You're not allowed near them”
“You're not allowed near them”
He repeated the same thing over, and over. My eyes darted down to the counter. He was now over stocking it. “Chill..” I began. “Bro chill out..!” I hiss grabbing his hand once the ketchup began to burst from their bags.
I jump when when he snatched my wrist and leaned in close. And that’s when I noticed it. His eyes were dull and almost..empty. “Theo is not what you think” I yank my hand away, stumbling back as I do. “What the fuck man..” Jeez. I know we don’t get along but damn..wait-
“W-what do you mean by that? Do you know about him? Do you know who Theo is?!“ he blinked and cursed at the sight of the overstuffed condiments. “What the hell..?” I stood there eyeing him. “Anwyll..?” I spin to face the group.
Marca’s POV
I sat with Joe and the others. I dust my hands off silently. Just watching Anwyll. I narrowed my eyes on the way him and Rebel talked. “Marca..?” I glance over to Joe. “Hm?” He smiled softly. “I was asking if you asked about me coming to your trial?” My heart sank and I looked at Enya who slowly stopped sipping her shake. She pressed her lips together. Causing the group to die down.
I glance at Josiah. “I..I don’t know Josiah…the trial is pretty close off..” I mumble. “Even Enya isn’t allowed to go..”
“Damn..” Steph blows. “Tell me about it..” Enya mumbled. “But! Hey..whatever happens I’m sure Marca will come out back on top..” I give my sister a soft smile.
I take Josiaha’s hand and give it a soft squeeze. “Don't worry..I’ll come out in one piece..” I nod looking away. I sigh softly and take a bite from my burger. I quickly lean forward as some ketchup drips out. “Anwyll?” Enya called. We all look up to him spinning to face us. Shock written all over his face.
I narrow my eyes, licking my lips. “You alright dude?” Joe asked, making room for him. “Y-yeah..um..” he tilts his head blinking. “I’m fine.” He shook his head blinking again. He placed the napkins down and we all took one.
Enya slid a shake over and his eyes darted up. He shook his head slightly and she nodded slightly. “You're favorite..” I grin leaning back as the others sit back starting to eat and enjoy their meal. “Eat.” She mouthed. “No! I hate the taste of people food..” he mouthed back with a face of disgust. I tap his shoulder and lean in. “You need to eat something or their going to find it weird. Drink the shake.” He gritted his teeth.
I lean to eat a fry as Anwyll slowly reached forward. He took hold of it and brought it to his lips. “So.” He began. He hesitated before taking a sip. I watch with amusement as he made a gurgling noise followed by a choke gagging. He shivered and swallows. I take a sip of my soda to stop a smile. I look up at Marie who had a strong unhidden nose wrinkle. “How’s everyone doing?” He choked out.
“Terrible. Absolutely terrible.” Steph sighs munching on a fry. “Brian has been nothing but an ass since you two left..” Brian..I wished I killed him. “What’s he doing now?”
“Well. Since you two left he took it upon himself to harass literally everyone. He’s been talking shit about you and Enya…”
“Tell me something I don’t know..”
“Yeah? He keeps telling everyone that you're a monster. That you're eyes ‘glowed’ or whatever” she made finger qoutes on the word glowed.
My heart dropped and I locked eyes with Enya who clenched her jaw. “Is that so..” she mumbled. They all nod. “He’s lowkey losing it. But everyone just thinks it’s because he got his ass rocked..” Marie giggled. I smile a little and lean back as the others finish their food.
This isn’t good. If he’s out there telling everyone my eyes glowed that could mean trouble. The council could get a hold of that. Which means I would stand no chance at getting my position. I sigh softly and eat the last of my fries before downing my last few burgers. “Damn..! Chill Marca. The meat is already dead..!” Josiah joked, making me snort and choke.
Enya burst out laughing as I sat there fighting for my laugh. “Don't die Marca..that would be one sad way to go..” I glare at her as I cough and down a shit load of soda. I sigh, rubbing my throat before feeling a chill. Both Enya and I straighten up and tilt our noses to the air.
We were being watched…stalked. I lock eyes with her before noticing her eyes moving to the window behind me. And whatever she saw, changed her demeanor. She looked down. “What? You okay?” I clench my jaw. I knew that look far to well. I grab Anwyll’s wrist, making him jerk. “Ay-“
I ignore him and shove my way into his brain. He hissed and jerked once more, catching the looks of the group. “Stop it!” I demand. “Get out of my head!” I wince when he tried to shove me out again. “What’s..going on..?” Josiah mumbled.
Enya quickly pats the table. They look her way and she pressed her lips together and motioned for them to be quiet. I shove my way back into his brain, he balled his fist. “Marca!-“
“We are being watched, Anwyll!” I quickly shout. He froze. “Outside the window. Don’t look, but there are five men and one woman.” He blinked and fixed his position. “Why?”
“Guys..! What! Is going on..!” Marie hissed. “We need to leave..” Enya whispered, starting to clear up her trash. “Do it quick. But do it slowly.” She instructs. The group just sat still. “Now..!” She snaps. They quickly began doing as told. “Enya, please tell us what’s going on..” Steph whispered.
“We just need to leave. That’s all..” she reassured, quickly getting up. “But-“
“Joe. Please…” I hiss, grabbing his back and standing up with Anwyll close on my tail. “What do we do?” I glance at Anwyll and lead everyone out the back door. I look over my shoulder to see them gone. My heart instantly dropped further into my stomach.
Shit. This isn’t good. They're gone! My eyes darted this way and that. Trying to find them. But due to it being the middle of the day, the tosses and sidewalk were filled to its max with people. Anwyll grabbed my arm where he leaned in. “What the hell is going on?”
I grit my teeth and tilt my head. How can this dude make this any more obvious? I shove him off and groan loudly where I shove him into a wall. Pinning him to it. Only a few people nearby stopped - but only for a mere second before continuing on their way. “Dude what the fuck!” Anwyll shouts.
“Marca what the hell!” Marie screamed only to be stopped by Enya.
She gets it. I show my teeth. “We have a hit. I don’t know who. But one of us is going to have an attempted assassination."
