The Wrath Of The Shadow Wolf

Riona was lying down on her bed and going through her phone. She was all alone at home. Wright had not returned the previous night and she was not in the least bothered by his absence. He never informed her of his intending absence neither had he call to inform her of his reasons for not coming back home.

In the past, Riona would have immediately contacted her dad the moment she noticed that he was usually late from work. But this time around, she was not bothered and so she did not dial his line, not even for once to inquire about his whereabouts or the reasons for his absence.

Her refusal to check up on him was borne out of the conflict from their last encounter when he had been out all night and had intentionally ignored her calls and even though she tried to not admit it, it was also triggered by his revelation of an intention to marry Maeve, Riona’s mortal enemy. So, she has made a decision never to be bothered about his where about anymore.

She was still on her bed browsing through her phone when she began to hear some noises. She wondered where the noises might be coming from, but after a little observation, she realized that it was coming from downstairs.

Initially, she ignored the noise and went on with her phone as she felt that the noise must be from dad who had not returned the previous day.

If he had not returned the previous day and had not given her a prior information of his absence neither did he thought it wise to put a call or a text across to inform her of his reasons, then they was no need going to go and welcome him. Riona reasoned.

“You can go for as long as you wish as I no longer give a f**k” she cursed.

Even though Riona had resolved not to be bothered by her dad’s activities downstairs, she became concerned when the noise was beginning to get too loud and persistent. The noise was beginning to disturb her and she could not continue to ignore it even if she tried to.

She wondered what her dad might be doing to be generating so much noise all by himself. Or maybe he was not alone but was here with some other persons or maybe he was not the one that was making the noise downstairs.

Even with this thought, she still ignored his presence and whatever he was up to and continued with her phone as she was sure that there was no way any other person would gain access to their house.

The noise continued and she could swear that she was hearing some other voices, different from her dad’s. At first, she was scared and was unwilling to go downstairs by herself.
