Chapter 19: 7000 dollar dress?!

They looked dark and ruthless and they growled at him like a crazed animal that hadn't eaten in days. More over, he'd come to realise the sad truth. The other people that were locked in separate cellars were not human, but werewolves.

He thought that it was just a stupid town myth. But when one of the deranged criminals went down on all fours and phased in the next cellar beside him, he knew that that he was scr3wed.

Ricky managed to find the fence and head straight for it however, he came to an abrupt stop when he saw two dark figures up ahead.

"Well look who it is?" Klaus said wearing his shades, during the dead of the night.

"Who let you out of the cellar kid?"

Jaxson asked curiously.

Ricky nervously gulped.

"Ii..It was umm, open."

Klaus and Jaxson sighed at one another, they quickly spoke through their mind link glaring at one another.

K: You forgot to lock the lamb's door?

J: I know I locked it before I came out.

K: Then how did wise guy over there escape?

Klaus and Jaxson then quickly checked their pockets and it turned out that only one of them had their key on them.

Then they shot their eyes towards Ricky, whose heart was racing a mile. For Klaus had dropped the key by accident whilst he answered a call on his phone in a rush.

Ricky had quickly swiped the key off the floor, before he noticed and hid it under his foot and Jaxson who was standing outside the cellar locked the door.

Ricky quickly took of running however in a flash, Jaxson came Infront of him, and kicked him by his chest. Ricky groaned out in pain as Klaus approached him next, he quickly removed his key from his pocket and sighed at him annoyed.

"Get up kid."

"I'm not going back down there!" Ricky got up with Jaxson watching him like a hawk from a distance.

"Why not?"

"Isn't it obvious?! They're all monsters down there!"

Klaus then removed his very dark shades and looked at Ricky with his yellow glowing eyes, scaring him to his bones.

"You got a problem with the monsters Ricky?" Klaus asked darkly.

Ricky turned on his heel, and raced towards the fence for his dear life when he saw Klaus grinning at him in a chilling manner with his pointy teeth.

He started climbing over the criss cross fence when suddenly a powerful arm grabbed him from the back and pulled him down.

Ricky let out a chilling scream as he was dragged back down to the ground in a violent manner. The jock dug his hands heavily upon the ground as he was dragged effortlessly back by Klaus down towards the dungeon.

A few days later.

Kavya couldn't stop thinking about her wolf that came to visit her the other day. She missed it a lot and wished to see him again.

After she'd been back to school, she'd been careful not to go to the cafeteria. Instead, she'd been having her pack lunches up on the school roof, where it was pleasantly quiet, with a few students around.

Chase had been avoiding her because of the student council and she'd been also avoiding Cloud who was also missing from school.

It was now the last day of class and Mr Finlay had started giving out detention to late commers. The class carried on as usual studying about the caves in his geology class and Kavyaa was bored out of her mind.

Seo-In on the other hand was busy drawing in her sketch book that Kavyaa easily took notice of since she sat next to her. It was an image of a wolf but it was no way close to Silver.

"You've seen it too?" She whispered with a nudge.

Seo-In closed her book quickly and planted a nervous smile, shaking her head.

"Saw what? I saw nothing."

"Seo-In, stop lying I know what you're drawing." She whispered yelled trying to reach out for her book, but Seo-In pulled it back, lightly glaring at her.

"It doesn't matter! That's mine Mia, so give it back."

"No! I want to see where you saw it."

"Mia..." Seo-In didn't want her getting involved with her, especially not with Theo who'd strictly told her to stay away from that place. But how could Seo-In? The wolf was all she could think about and she wanted to see him again.

Suddenly a dark figure loomed over them.

"Girls!" Mr Finlay snapped, making Kavyaa quickly release the book and Seo-In quickly hide it underneath her desk in a hurry.

"Yes sir?"

"We're all having a 3 day camping trip on the north side of the island. I suggest you get these paper works signed by your guardians."

"When are we leaving?"

"Well if you've been paying attention Miss whatever your name is. You'd know we'll be leaving 09:00 hours sharp from school on Monday." He spoke in a rude manner, slapping the green letters on their desk and walking away.

The bell rang notifying everyone that it was the end of class and everyone started packing their bags.

"Please note that if any of you do not turn to this trip, then I'll cut your marks." Mr Finlay added making other students groan out in annoyance.

Seo-In quickly packed her bag and shoved her sketch book down her bag.

"It's best if you forget what you saw Mia. Just trust me on this ok?"

Kavyaa sighed and nodded her head, looks like Seo-In wasn't going to let her in or her wolfish secret too soon. She mildly smiled and let it go for now.

Looking at her green authorisation paper work, Kavyaa thought about Mr Verrono.

On the other hand, Kavyaa could just let Mr Finlay cut her marks. Afterall, she wasn't really a sixteen year old. No, she was meant to be in college, but due to Kane and his minions hunting for her she knew she had to stay low.

Also, if she didn't attend this trip, she'd be bored out of her mind, plus this was the perfect opportunity to explore the island she was at.

Not to mention the fact that she wished to find out about the mysterious Storm Mountain.

Grabbing her bag, Kavyaa decided to go pay a visit to her guardian.

.

.

.

After catching the bus, Kavyaa managed to come towards the last big mansion up the hill.

She reached the black gates, and saw two heavily armed guards patrolling the area.

Kavyaa approached one of the guards.

"Hello, Is Mr Ethan Verrono in?"

"Do you have an appointment with him?"

No, because she forgot to call before hand to make an appointment with one of his secretaries. The last time she was here, she easily got in with Mark.

"No."

"Sorry kid, you can't see him without an appointment."

Kavyaa nodded in defeat, and went to turn her heel when suddenly, she saw a silver ride coming down from the estate road.

The guards automatically opened the big black gates, and the car got out, then stopped next to where Kavyaa was standing on the side.

The car window rolled down, and a red pony familiar man greeted her.

"Miss Chaves?"

"Hey Mr Jaxson please call me Mia, no need to be formal it's just me." She casually laughed making him nod had her carefree bubbly nature.

"Is everything alright then Mia?" He enquired as she made her journey to the pack house, by herself.

"I um actually came to see Mr Verrono, but I forgot to make an appointment, so I couldn't get in."

"Oh, I wish you'd have called me earlier to arrange a meeting for you?"

"Yes, I'll remember that next time. I just forgot this time round." She nervously scratched her head, feeling his powerful animal vibe.

"That's ok, what did you wish to see him about?"

She pulled out her green paperwork from her grey back pack and handed it over to him.

"My science class is having a camping trip in this part of the island. I need him to authorise it or else my teacher will cut my marks if I don't go." she sighed out.

Jaxson handed the paper work back.

" I see well, your teacher sounds like a tool."

Kavyaa nodded with a short laugh.

"Yep."

He then pulled out his phone and made a quick call.

"Ethan, the lovely Miss Mia Chaves has come by to see you. Yeah, it's important. Uh-huh....Uh-huh...You want me to what?....Ok, you sure?"

Jaxson suddenly pulled his phone away as he heard a very angry growl.

Kavyaa was shocked seeing him pull his phone away, making her wonder if it was a good time to see her guardian?

"Ok, great, I'll make sure she's there." He ended the call and looked back at the nervous teen.

"Mia get in, I just got you an appointment with my boss."

"Umm...Actually, if it's a bad time I can try and see him tomorrow, if he's not busy?"

"Don't worry about him being busy or not, c'mon Ethan is more than happy to make time for you." He encouraged.

Kavyaa nodded and got in Jaxson's car in agreement.

.

.

.

During her pleasant car journey with Jaxson she found out that she would be joining his boss for a hotel party that Sasha was throwing for the sponsors.

Urgh Sasha. If she knew she was going to be there Kavyaa would have quickly declined the request to see her guardian.

Jaxson then pulled over his car to a designer store in town. Kavyaa was confused but Jaxson pulled her car door open like the perfect gentleman.

"C'mon Miss Chaves, since you've been invited to a formal dinner party, you must dress accordingly wouldn't you agree?"

"Oh? I thought I could just meet him outside the hotel?"

"Nope, Ethan wishes you to join him for dinner tonight. C'mon, besides I'm sure you'll have fun tonight." He helped her out of the car with his hand and led her inside.

"Jaxson what a pleasant surprise."

"Madam Isabella, it's so good to see you again! Oh my, you haven't aged a day." She said looking at Jaxson who quickly twirled her around making her giggle.

Kavyaa watched, as he kissed her on both cheeks without making skin contact in a fancy manner. The store owner looked like a fashionable middle aged woman in her mid fourties wearing a purple scarf around her neck.

"Oh my and who is this high school bella?" The store owner said looking at her delightfully.

"Well this is Mia and Mia I'd like you to meet Madam Isabella, the best fashion designer in town."

Kavyaa smiled warmly at her.

"My she's adorable." She pinched her cheeks like an old aunt.

"She's an important guest of Ethan's tonight and she's been invited to attend his dinner party. I was hoping you could help me pick out a dress for her?"

"Well you've brought her to the right place. C'mon bella!" Kavyaa was instantly pulled by her and her two female assistants appeared quickly sizing her up.

"So what's your style bella?"

"Umm..."

"You like the wild style, leopard print?"

"Umm.."

"No, you look more like the vibrant type, bright colours would suit her best.."

She didn't wish to pop out like a clown though..

"Umm..."

"Nonsense she'll look great in this!"

More dresses were thrown at her, and Jaxson and Madam bella decided on the right dress.

When the curtain opened up for the twentieth time Jaxson and Madam Isabella held hands like they had created a master piece.

"Yes!"

It was a beautiful chic cocktail of the shoulder silk red dress.

Mia felt shy yet embarrassed for wearing such a cute yet a little revealing outfit. She'd never dress like this before yet at the same time, she loved the feel of the dress on her.

"You like it Mia?"

"It's beautiful, but I can't afford this." She saw the shocking price of 7000 dollars on the price tag.

"Mia don't worry, Ethan's got you covered." Jaxson said calming her worry when he pulled out his credit card. Since he insisted on buying it for her, Kavyaa couldn't argue back, since technically Ethan was her guardian.

"Oh bella, try on the shoes next."

She was shocked to see a pair of high heels.

"Umm, do you have any flats? I haven't worn heels before?"

"Nonsense, this dress can only go with high heels sweetheart, plus you'll match Ethan's height perfectly with these on tonight."

Madam Isabella chimed.

When Kavyaa did so and took a step on her high heels she stumbled and fell backwards.

"Ouch."

"You ok?" Jaxson helped her up.

Jaxson couldn't help but get a whiff of her scent up close. He controlled his curious wolf and looked away.

"Fine, I don't think I can walk in these?"

"Nonsense, you'll be fine dear." Madam Isabelle said helping her walk grabbing her other hand.

With the assistants helping her with her hair and make up, the crowd went speechless around her, and so did Mia when she looked in the mirror.

"Is this me?"

"Yes bella this is you."

"Get out of here! This is so not me! Oh my gosh I have high cheek bones and a jaw line! What the frack!!!

No freaking way!"

She gushed finding herself fascinating in the mirror making others around her laugh.

"You ready for the party Mia?" He asked as he finished paying for her items.

"So long as I don't fall down." She joked holding his arm for support.

Jaxson laughed finding her adorable and opened up the car door for her like the perfect gentleman.

Meanwhile, back at the hotel party.

Roman grew anxious inside Ethan's head.

{R}: Where is she?

{E}: Calm down Roman, she'll arrive in due time.

Sasha mingled with the other guests and had plans to dance the sexy samba with her beloved.

He looked very distracted when a certain someone entered the scene with his best beta, Jaxson.

Sasha's eyes darted darkly at the rude girl who didn't look quite like a peasant tonight.
