Chapter 8.
We walk to the dining table hand in hand, and Rhydian, being the gentleman he is, pulled out my chair and I smile as I sit down and pushes me in. My parents glare at us in awe, surprised at our sudden change of attitude to each other, because last time they saw us together we were staring the death out of each other. He takes his place opposite me and we grin at each other. I notice that Grandma isn't present.
"Where's Grandma?" I ask my parents.
They both shrug.
I feel a bit guilty, the last time I saw her I basically screamed at her. I was starting to get really worried.
"I'll go and find her." I say after we finished our bacon and sausages.
"I'll help," Rhydian offers, of course. We walk from the dining room and out into the main hallway.
"Maddy, why do you look so guilty?" Rhydian asks with a cheeky grin, but there's nothing funny about it.
"Yesterday, after I found out, I shouted at her for not telling me, and now I feel awful about it." I sigh heavily. Rhydian snakes his arm around my waist.
"I'm sure she understood your frustration, I bet there's a good reason for her missing breakfast," he always knows how to cheer me up, I thank him by kissing him on the cheek. A smile creeps up onto his face.
We walk around the house for an hour, half searching, and half exploring. I had no clue where to find her, so when we bump into my parents on our travels, they say, "She wont have gone far, why don't you go for a walk and we'll find her. " and they begin to walk away.
"Mum?"
Mum turns around, "Yes pet?"
"Why didn't you tell me about this whole queen business?"
She sighs, "I didn't want to worry you, and I don't want my cub to grow up." She admits.
I run and hug her. "Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere yet."
She smiles at Dad and we walk in our different directions .
Rhydian turns to me, "Do you want to run in the woods?"
A smile creeps up on my face, "hell yeah! I mean yeah, sure" this made us both laugh and we run to the woods.
"Race ya!" I shout as I overtake Rhydian. He laughs and shouts "Put some effort in!" I climb up a tree and swing from branch to branch. I have energy basically coming out of my pores because of the full moon tonight. I accidentally miss one of the branches and I fall to the ground with a thud.
Rhydian Runs over, "Are you okay?"
I smile and push him as I get off the floor, "Hey, that's not fair," he shouts at me.
"who said we were playing fair," I turn and run. When I next turn around, Rhydian is nowhere to be seen.
"Rhydian?" I call to him, but no answer.
Then someone tackles me to the ground, and I scream.
"You were the one saying we weren't playing fair," he laughs in my ear. I join in his laughter. He leans in to kiss me. We stop in our tracks when we hear a twig snap and the smell of an unfamiliar Wolfblood wafts in front of our faces.
"Rhydian, how nice to see you again." An angry voice says from behind us.
Cliffhanger! I have put it in my last 2 A/Ns that I would love to know your ideas, but i have had non so I assume no one reads the A/Ns. If you have read it, who do you think this wolfblood is? and why are they at the mansion? Thanks for the reviews. Keep on reading and reviewing! Thanks!
