Chapter 54: Party

Victoria's POV

I could tell Jane was constantly staring at me trying to remind me of the party later tonight, but I ignored her and kept on eating while my mind went to the thought of fighting vampires and wondered how long I was going to stay alive in that fight.

Not that I was scared, but having not much experience was a big disadvantage for me, but I hope my abilities can actually help.

''Victoria, are you okay?'' Aunt Laura's words took me out of my thoughts,

''Yeah.'' I whispered while nodding my head

Aunt Laura sighed softly and dropped her spoon on her plate while she folds her hands and stared right at me.

''Does your arm still hurt?''

''No, I'm fine.'' I murmured while forcing a mouthful of food in my mouth.

''You know Vicky, you know why I'm going this hard on you, right?''

''Yeah.'' I mumbled while nodding my head.

''It's alright to get scared and freak out but don't worry you will have your mate with you, and he's gonna help you in every step that you will take…''

''Come on mom, you know how much she hates him, why bring him up.'' Jamal grumbled.

''It's okay, I'll just go back to my room.'' Quickly, I stood on my feet and flashed everyone a quick smile before leaving the dining.

''Why do you have to bring him up.'' I heard Jane's grumbling behind me, but I wasn't bothered about it.

I got to my room, or should I say mom's room.

I lay on the bed with my back and starts playing a scenario in my head about this fight.

From my findings, Aunt told me there are over twenty thousand vampires in the world, but she still hasn't gotten the real data.

If we were to judge through numbers, the werewolves are so much in numbers is like five wolves is to a vampire, but still, the fight won't be an easy one for us because vampires are fast, have many skills and experience than the werewolves. They can take down two werewolves in a split of a second, and that's really scaring.

''What are you thinking.'' I heard Jane's voice at the door.

''Stop using your abilities, can't you Just come through the door.'' I grumbled and sat on the bed.

''Come on, it's not like my life span reduces whenever I use my power.'' She chuckled and walked away from the door.

''Try this on, it will fit you perfectly.'' She threw a dress on me which I groaned and kept on the bed

''I have clothes in my closet, I'll pick out one, I don't trust your type of clothes.''

''Come on, you can't wear such dress to this party, so many people will be there, and it will be fun.'' She giggled happily and made me stood on my feet.

''Tell me why I'm going to this party again.'' I asked while grumbling

''Because you have to flex your muscles.'' She pushed me to the mirror and hand over the dress to me

''I'll be back in a minute, I'll go change up.'' Those words did not leave her mouth and she vanished.

I stood In front of the mirror and placed the dress on my body while I stared at the mirror.

The dress was a red handless, attractive gown, which stopped above my knees.

''No, no,'' I murmured and kept the dress on the bed

That dress was too flashy and sexy for my liking and I can't wear it.

Tiredly, I opened my closet and took out a purple color fitted dress that stopped on my knees. I kept the dress on my bed and took off my nightwear before putting on my dress and a flat hill shoes.

''Please don't tell me you are wearing this dress.'' Jane murmured

''For God’s sake Vicky you can't wear this.'' She grumbled angrily, but I ignored her and stood before the mirror while I slowly combed my hair.

''Vicky.''she called out to me, but I ignored her and continued combing my hair.

Sighing heavily she sat on my bed and watched me comb my hair, I combed my hair and packed in a bun, but Jane stood up from the bed and stood behind me.

''We are going for a pool party and not a church service or a funeral.''she murmured and loosen my hair.

She made my hair fell on my shoulders before turning me over

''We need to do some makeup on you.'' Jane suggested, but I shook my head

''fine, are you ready.''

''Are you sure aunt won't find out.'' I asked

''She won't, I've been doing this for a very long time, come on let's go.'' I nodded my head to her before she held my hand and within a twinkle of an eye we were in a dark corner of a street.

''Lets go.'' I took in a deep breath and walked out of the dark corner

''The party is over there.'' She pointed to a big building nearby, while I just nodded my head as a response.

We took few steps while I kept staring around, there were people chatting happily while walking around, the street was lightened up with lights, I could hear the loud horn or car and the busyness of the road.

This was a normal life, and I really missed it.

''Act normal, okay?, and your name is Olivia, anyone who asked you Just tell them your name is Olivia, and please lie about your identity.''

''Why.'' I asked

''Listen, I know we've been accepted by the world, but I don't want us getting so much attention because of our identity, okay?''

''Alright.'' I nodded my head and walked in with her.

''Good evening.'' She greeted the bouncer at the gate who flashed her a warm smile

''I can see you came with someone, is she one of us.'' He asked while his piercing gaze was on me.

''Yeah, She is my cousin Victoria.'' She introduced us

''Welcome, Vicky.'' He flashed me a warm smile and stepped aside for us to get in.

''One of us.'' I asked as we walked in

''Yeah, he is a werewolf.'' she replied, while I nodded my head to her words and walked in with her

''Welcome Christine, the party is at the pool.'' A girl smiled widely at Jane before flashing me a quick smile, which I returned.

''Lets go.'' I followed Jane and walked towards the pool side, which was blasting with loud music.

''Woah.'' Was the first thing that came out from my mouth.

I stared at the pool side and saw how the pool was crowded with people, some were swimming in the big pool while some were in the bar having fun and dancing with each other.

''Have fun.'' Jane smiled at me and ran away

''Jane.'' I yelled, but she ignored me and ran away.

''Damn it.'' I grumbled in anger and looked around.

The pool was crowded with so many people and loud music was blasting everywhere and to worsen it, the lights were dimmed.

''Shit, where do I go From here.'' I murmured and stared around, trying to find Jane, but she was out of my sight.

Sighing heavily, I walked towards the bar and poured some whiskey in my cup while I sat on the long stool and watched the fun.

''Don't you feel like dancing.'' The bar man asked, but I shook my head and continued taking a sip of my drink while I stared around.

''Refill please.'' I gave my cup to the bar man, who took it and refilled it with some whiskey.

''Thanks.'' I took the cup and took a sip of it.

Slowly, I nodded my head to the music and watched people having fun.

I wished and wanted to join in the dance, but then I was scared of this type of life.

This life was fun, wake up have fun and go on with your normal life, but that's a dream for me, seeing that I have less than two years for a fight I doubt I would survive.

''A glass of cocktail.'' A deep, husky voice spoke behind me, which triggered everything in me and brought uneasiness in my stomach.

I could feel his piercing gaze behind me, which made all the hairs in my body shivers in cold and fear, but I composed myself and took a long sip of my drink.

The bar man handed the drink to the man behind me and I noticed he left because the feelings I had disappeared.

Quickly, I turned around so that I might get a glimpse of him, but he was already out of my sight.

''Where can I pee.'' I asked the bar man who pointed a direction to me

''Thanks.'' I stood up from the bar with my cup of whiskey in my hand and walked towards the direction of the restroom.

I squeezed myself passed the crowd and almost lost my balance, but a strong grip held me from falling,

''Watch your step.'' That same husky familiar voice spoke up, which triggered everything in me.

Slowly I moved up my gaze, only to leave my mouth opened by what saw.
