The Door opened and Lola mother barged into Gwen room holding a bucket of water and looking Very angry.
With the look on her face, you would have thought she wants to kill someone (and maybe she really wants to kill someone).
She moved closer to where gwen laid sleeping soundly, she gave her a look filled with disgust and disdain before emptying the whole content of the water on her body.
"Wake up You useless girl ". She screamed at her daughter.
Gwen woke up with a start feeling her whole body wet with water and she didn't need someone to tell her that it was her mother Who did that.
Like What should she have expected, ever since she was a child she has never experienced the love of a mother.
The only thing the woman she calls her mother ever showed her was nothing But hatred.
Growing up as a child she had always wondered What she did to make her mother, her own mother hate her So much.
She had always hoped that one day her mother would somehow change and show her even if it was just a tiny bit of love And care.
But No each passing day her mother's attitude and hatred towards her only increases and it got to a point where she stopped Hoping and resigned herself to fate.
She concluded that her mother would never love her, she would never get to experience the love And care of her mother.
"Good morning mum". She greeted as she hurridly stood up from the bed.
Instead of replying her greetings she was rewarded with a slap.
"Don't you ever call me mother, i never want to hear that word coming out of your Mouth.
Do i make myself clear ". Her mother said while giving her death glares.
" yes ma'am ". Gwen replied while holding her cheek and trying to suppress the tears that were threatening to fall.
" stupid girl, Do u think you are in this house to sleep like a log of wood.
I need u to go downstairs and prepare my breakfast, make sure to Do all the cleaning and If i spend much time waiting for you I'll make sure you regret your life".
She said before hissing and turning to leave the room.
Gwen let out a sigh as she dey left the room to Do the biddings of her mother.
On getting to the kitchen, she paused for a while to decide What to prepare and Finally she settled for scrambled eggs and some toast.
She brought out the ingredients she will be needing before setting out to prepare the food.
Few minutes Later, she was Done. She fondled with the hem of her night wear contemplating If she should go upstairs to call her mother or not.
Knowing either ways she would get insulted. She heaved a sigh before leaving to call her mother.
She walked upstairs, her body shaking with fear. She didn't want to get hit again, although she was getting used to the beatings of her mother by now.
On getting to her mother's Door, she placed a Soft knock and waited to see If her ma would respond.
Not having to wait for long she heard the voice of her mother asking her to come in.
Getting inside, she bowed her head, not wanting to look at her mother in the face.
"your food is ready ma'am". She said still keeping her head down.
"ok, you can get out now ".
Gwen wasted No time in leaving the room feeling glad that she was not insulted or hit.
She doesn't know the reason why her mother tends to hit her for little or No mistakes at all.
Sometimes she get beaten to the extent that she passes out and her mother would leave her there caring less If she lives or dies.
Gwen would wake up the next day feeling weak and sometimes she wishes she could just die already.
But that would never stop her mother from giving her more bad treatment.
She heaved a sigh before setting out to complete the rest of her chores.

Anytime the werewolves visit the human town, a human must get missing.
The Sudden disappearances always remains a mystery to the humans and So the humans set a curfew that once its 8pm everyone must stay indoor and make sure to keep their doors locked, No one is to be seen outside, coming out is at your own risk.
But that didn't stop the werewolves as they still ventured into the human town...........

Judging from his looks you could tell he was a Very handsome Man, his jet black long hair was neatly trimmed till it was below his shoulders, his eyebrows were thin and narrow, he carried as well a beautiful pointed nose and his angular cheekbones carved down towards a flinty jaw. He had a perfect manly physique and when he walks he moves with an athletic grace without skipping a beat. And his eyes were the Most beautiful red eyes you could ever see. But then he always had on a cold look.
A knock was heard from outside and he could immediately tell Who it was just by sniffing the Air to get a scent.
