Chapter 4: TRACKING HER.
~ π¬ππππ πππππ π³ππππ ~
Illiana grunted angrily as she tossed her drawing paper to the waste bin. ” I can’t believe I’ve been trying to draw this shit for almost two hours now and yet I’ve gotten nothing good from it. ”
Genevieve took the sheet out from the waste bin, checking on what she had drawn. ” Come on, Ana this is more than beautiful. Why would you want this for nothing. ”
” That doesn’t look good for a project, Gene. I need my full mark for the Fine Art course. You know it’s my favorite course and I can’t fail it this semester. ”
Genevieve stretched the drawing paper, folding it properly. ” Why don’t I keep this to myself while you have a portrait of me instead. ”
” Really, you’re gonna look like a mouse. ”
She laughed. ” Well, my instincts tells me that I’m gonna look more like a princess. ” She sat on the stool in front of Illiana’s drawing board adjusting herself in a model style, and focusing her eyes to the window, and she looked like she was staring at something. ” Is this style okay? ” She asked, not making a move.
” It’s just more than okay to get the best portrait. ” She started drawing, trying not to make a mistake. ” When you get tired, just let me know. ”
” Okay. ”
It took Illiana an hour to make a neat sketch of Genevieve. Genevieve helped her prepare the painting colours and she went back, maintaining the same model style. ” Did I changed the pose?”
” No. ”
So Illiana started painting Genevieve’s portrait and she made some little designs on her garments. She attached a sun flower on her hair to correspond the yellow gown Gene was putting on.
She made some little adjustment to her environment, making it look almost like she had taken a full photo of herself with nature.
Danielle ran from the newspaper box to the drawing room where Illiana and Genevieve stayed with a brown envelope in her hand, she banged in. ” Guys, you can’t believe this… Oh my God, this is incredibly gorgeous. ” Danielle gasped covering her mouth with her palms. ” You just made the best portrait ever. Can you draw a portrait of me? ”
” Your’s will be tomorrow. ” Illiana said, taking a photo of her drawing.” You can take a photo too if you want. ”
” I’m doing that right away. ” She deepened her hand into the back pocket of her jean trouser, bringing out her phone. She took two photos of the portrait, at that instant, she posted it on instagram and twitter. ” Everyone are gonna love this. ”
Genevieve couldn’t stop gasping at the beautiful portrait of herself Illiana had just made. She felt like pasting it in her room and giving a strict warning of “Out Of Bound” to anyone who tries touching it.
” I think professor Morg-n is gonna love this. ” They left the room to the sitting room. ” Ehh Dani, you wanted to say something earlier when you bashed into the drawing room. What was it again? ” She reminded.
” I found this in the newspaper box this morning, it says Kane and Priscilla got married two weeks ago. ” She announced.
Illiana covered her mouth from exclaiming, but Gene went ahead shouting in happiness. ” What the… Oh my goodness, finally they are together. ” Genevieve didn’t know when that came out of her mouth.
” Hold on a sec, ” Danielle paused her, ” You knew they were in love? ”
” Of course I knew. I mean, who doesn’t know that. ” She stared at the both girls who seemed not to have noticed Kane’s love for Priscilla eight years ago. ” Okay, maybe I found out because I was peaking on them. ”
” You always spy on them? ” Illiana asked, surprised.
” No, I don’t spy on them. ” She sighed in defeat. ” Yeah, I did spied on them but that was twice. It all started when we were playing hide and seek one morning, I noticed Kane had seen Priscilla first but… he acted not to have seen her and caught Illiana instead. I knew Illiana wasn’t the first to be seen but what can I say? ”
” So, ” she continued. ” I started noticing the way they look at each other. And on a cold evening, thankfully the full moon was out then. I saw them… k-ssed each other. ” She rolled her eyes saying that.
” Wow, that was such a rom-ntic moment.” Danielle made an Awwn face. ” I wished I had such a moment. ”
” Don’t worry, Dani, yours will come very soon. ” Genevieve playfully said.
Danielle’s phone started buzzing, hundreds of messages were dropping in. ” New boyfriends? ” Genevieve asked.
” Yeah, new boyfriends who want Illiana to make a portrait of them.” She checked on the messages, they were both from instagram and twitter. ” Twenty four minutes and I’m getting a thousand likes and comments all at the same time? Illiana, you’re a sweetheart. You just created a new history for me. ”
She kept scrolling through the comments, ” So, are you gonna do that for them? ” She looked at her.
” I can try, but guess I’ll have to charge them for a picture. What do you guys think? ” She asked, seeking for a positive opinion.
” Yeah, that’s a great idea. Besides, you can make easy money with it and buy new stuffs for yourself. ” Genevieve acknowledged her.

Hours past like minutes, and it has just turned 4 o’clock. Illiana went to her room to have her bathe when she felt an itchy stings on her shoulder. “Ouch.. ” she hissed at the pain, taking off her shirt to get a glance of her shoulder.
The βMβ mark on her shoulder had just increased in size and it was shining red in colour. The pain was like digging a finger into a burning furnace. She rubbed it gently, hopping it could be of help but the itchy pains keeps getting tougher.
Danielle opened the door to tell her something but stopped as her eyes met the mark. ” It’s growing. ” She said shutting the door behind her.
” I know. And it hurts each time it grows. Do you think he’s purpose for leaving the mark on me was to punish me for not following him? ”
” I don’t think so. ” Danielle replied. ” Well, I think he did that to find you whenever he decides to come get you. He’s gonna come for you, you know that. ”
” I have the feeling. ”
” So, what are you going to do? ”
” I don’t know. I really don’t know. ” Danielle sighed heavily.

” I’m gonna ask for the last time, where is the girl? ” Alpha Kaden rowled at the awkward silence of the people towards his question. He was getting impatient and wanted to order an immediate killing when one said.
” We don’t know, Sir. All we do know is that they left two years after you came here. ” Said one of the villager, terrified.
” Where have they gone to? ” He asked.
” We do not know, Sir. ” Replied the same man.
Kaden’s anger arose as he nodded swiftly. The he bursted out laughing, and this caused everyone scared the more. Why was he laughing? He should be boiling in anger and not finding it so funny?
” You can run, Walker, but you can not hide from me. I’m coming for you, little kitten. I am coming for you. ” He mumbled to himself.
*
While he sat on his throne, he rubbed his jaw with his hand. He can’t stop imagining how foolish the Walker’s would play in order to protect their daughter from him. There’s just one thing they do not know, Kaden had seen this coming earlier, so he didn’t just marked her, he used it as a way to get to her no matter how far she was from him.
” Where are you, little kitten? ” He said, trying to reach her with the mark. ” Tell me, kitten, where are you? ”
He smiled at his victory as he sensed her pains. ” Ouch… ” He heard her gro-n, and a huge smile painted on his face.
” Found you, kitten. It’s time to come take you home. ”

She yelled from her room, everyone rushed up to know what was actually wrong with her. Genevieve was the first to bash in, her eyes wΒ‘dened at the sight of the mark on Illiana’s back.
” What the… Heck. ” She rushed to her.
Illiana was on the floor, shaking continuously. She would tumble at both side, her hand holding the mark as if she would tear off her skin at that moment. ” We need to call the doctor. ” Janet said as she rushed for the landmark.
She quickly dialled the ambulance number, ” Please, we’ve got a problem. ”
” Where are you? ” Asked the voice.
” Plot D, off south avenue. ”
” Okay ma’am, we’re on our way. ” She dropped the telephone back, rushing to Illiana’s body.
” Don’t worry, baby, the ambulance is coming. ”
Illiana held Gene’s hand, ” In case I don’t make it to the hospital… ”
Genevieve shook her head. ” No, you’re gonna make it. ”
” In case I don’t make it, help me give my drawing to professor Morg-n. ”
” You’re gonna do that yourself because you ain’t gonna die, okay. You’re not dying… not today. ”

Chapter 5: DO YOU REMEMBER ME?
Illiana kept shivering like she was gonna die now and then, her body was getting so hot like oven. She was burning. She was heating.
Soon, the ambulance stopped at the front of their building, and some men who had got out of the van came to help carry Illiana’s shivering body into the van.
They quickly drove off, heading for the nearby hospital, 10 meters away. ” Is she gonna be alright? ” Danielle asked Genevieve who was shivering in fear.
” I don’t know. I just hope so. ”

~ At The Hospital ~
Mr and Mrs Walker sat impatiently at the waiting room waiting for the news on Illiana’s condition to be thrown to them. Janet looked more concerned and it was almost like she would give up any moment due to a heart attack.
” Babe, you have to calm down. ” Her husband tried calming her down.
” I’m trying. I really am. I just wanna see my baby girl, that’s all. I wanna know if she’s alright. ” She wept.
” Illiana’s gonna be fine, trust me. ” He hugged her and they didn’t mind if the others were watching them.
Then the door open, a lady on a white gown entered with a long jotter and a biro in her hands. ” Who is Mr Walker? ” She asked, staring around the room.
” It’s I, ma’am. ”
” Is she your wife? ” She asked, pointing at Janet.
” Yes, I am. ” Janet said without hesitation.
” Please follow me. ” They followed her to the ward they had kept Illiana.
” Doctor, how is my daughter? ” Janet curiously asked as soon as she stepped in.
” Your daughter is fine, ma’am. You can take a look at her yourself. ” Mrs Janet left the doctor to Illiana’s bed, rubbing her hair to the back.
” Oh, sweetheart, you’re awake. How do you feel now? ” She asked, burying a k-ss on her forehead.
Mr Walker smiled seeing how okay Illiana was. ” Mr Walker? ” The doctor called, drawing his attention.
” Yes, doc. ”
” Can I have a few words with you… Privately? ”
” Yes, sure. ” They excused themselves to the doctor’s office.
” Please have a seat. ” He ushered him to sit down. ” Thank God you saw how okay your daughter is. ” Mr Walker nodded his head, ” Well why I had called you is to tell you that your daughter isn’t suffering from anything. I mean, no infections, no headache, no disease, no virus. But I think her case has something to do with a mark on her back. ”
” If I may ask, are you aware of the mark? ”
” Yes, ” he replied, nodding.
” So you’re also aware it has something to do with her condition? ” He nodded again.” I won’t ask you what it means but whatever it is, I think you have to work on that before it gets worster than it should be. If she belongs to someone who owns that mark, you better let her go to him. ”
” Even if I want to, she doesn’t want. And so are the others. ”
” You don’t have to look at if she wants it or not, that mark means something. And it’s only the one who gave it to her that knows what it mean. The more it keeps hurting her, the wΒ‘der it becomes, like it eats her pains. It feeds on it. You’re a man, do something about it. ”
Mr Walker nodded in agreement, but the truth is.. it really isn’t easy to convince Illiana’s mind and the others. No one will listen to him, especially in the fact that her mate is an animal.
He sighed…
Walking in the room, he played a wide smile on his face. Illiana took her eyes off her mother, resting it on him as she replied his smile with a wΒ‘der smile and a chuckle accompanied.
” You look okay. ” He said, not sure if he was actually happy he was watching his daughter suffer for some mark.
” Yeah. I didn’t die, did I?”
” You’re gonna be alright, okay? ” He coul6d hold the tears, he wiped it off with the back of his hand.
” You’re crying, dad? ” She asked, a bit disappointed.
” Of course not, baby. I’m just happy you’re breathing again. ” He forced himself to chuckle. ” I’m happy. ”
She lightened up the frown, nodding a smile. ” Me too. I can submit my art project by myself, and I won’t have to miss mom’s dishes. Right? ”
” Of course. Of course, sweetheart. ”
” Hey, let’s go outside. ” Janet whispered to him as they left the room. ” You have to go home and look after the girls while I stay here with Ana. ”
” Okay. ”
” Try not to think too much, okay? ” She k-ssed his cheek, before returning back to the room.

Mr Walker β
Nothing seems to be okay as far as he is still out there.
And nothing will be okay until he haves her to himself.

Illiana β
Mom has been reading my favorite lullaby since the past one hour like I was a kid or something. She won’t listen when I say I was fade up of hearing the same story over and over again.
” I’m hungry, mom. ” I said.
” Oh, sorry sweetheart. I forgot it’s seven already. ” She handed the book to me, ” You stare at the pictures while I go buy something for you to eat. ”
I nodded. I never thought I would actually work. Not that I was really hungry, I had to say that only to make her stop reciting the story to me.
I kept staring at the pictures like she had instructed me to. Not quite long she left, the door opened. I grunted rolling my eyes, as I thought it was mom. ” Mom! ”
But she said nothing, so I had to guess someone else was in the room with me. I brought down the book from my face, staring at the strange figure in front of me. He was putting on a black long suit with a black hat which covered his eyes. And he held a black and golden walking stick.
I wondered if anyone had seen him because he looks f*cking terrifying.
” Hello, Miss Walker. ” He greeted with a smile.
” Who are you? ” I asked, staring frightened at him. “I’m sorry but it seems like you’re in the wrong room. ”
” No, ” he shooks slowly, ” I don’t think I am. Do you remember me? ”
” I’m sorry but I don’t think we’ve met… at all. ”
” You don’t remember me? The man eight years ago. ”
” The only thing I remember about eight years ago was when my mother bought me a new dress for Xmas. So, I’m sorry if I don’t remember meeting you… Eight years ago. ”
He drops his walking stick beside the bed, walking close to me. I kept staring at him, I couldn’t comprehend what he was trying to do.
He held my hand, pulling me to sit. He held the zipper of the hospital grown I was putting on, when I held the dress. ” What the heck do you think you’re trying to do? ”
” Trying to make you remember. ”
” You wanna take off my clothes? Shit, you wanna get me unclad? ”
” I wish I can, but what I want is just above your shoulder. ” He finally opened the zip, shifting the cloth aside. I looked at the mark, this dude will do whatever it takes to get what he wants. ” Do you remember me now? ” He zipped up the dress.
If course I do, but does he have to go extra miles to make me remember??
” If you’re here to take me, then you’re overthinking cos I ain’t going anywhere with you, whether you like it or not. ”
” This is our destiny, why do you wanna run away from it? ”
” I don’t f*cking care about destiny, okay? Don’t you get it, I don’t wanna go with you. I don’t wanna be your partner, and I don’t wanna stay by your side either. Just go find someone who’s serious to be your mate! ”
” I can’t, you already are. The longer you take to come with me, the worster the pains become for you to bare. ”
” I can take good care of myself, and besides, I’ve lived with the pains for eight good years. I ain’t dead yet. ”
” Then why were you rushed to a hospital. ”
” And what do you care, Mr? ”
” Because you’re my responsibility. ”
” Responsibility? ” She laughed hΓ¦rd, then stopped. ” Get out of here, or I call the securities. ”
” What makes you think you’d do it? ”
” Try me, ” I threw him a hΓ¦rd gaze.
” Bear this in mind, kitten. No matter how far you run, I’ll always find you. ” With this, he left the room.
I scoffed. I can’t believe I was actually listening to him.
Few minutes later, mom entered with the pizzas in her hands. ” I know you’ll love this. ” She smirked but I wasn’t in the mood to return the smile back. ” You don’t look happy, what’s the problem? ” She asked, noticing my sad expression.
” Remember the man who had come to Mandeva eight years ago, requesting to take me with him? ” Mom nodded, ” He came few minutes ago, preaching some sermon about destiny. ”
” Did he touched you? ”
“No, why would he? ”
” Don’t worry about him, he’s never taking you with him as long as your father and I still breathes. Come on, eat your pizza. ”

Do you think Illiana will accept her destiny?? Cos, I just discovered not all are simple Diana.
