I hide behind some bushes, I see peter knock
Peter: im paying my respects
My momma opens the door
Momma: i know exactly why you're here ive already lost one daughter.. valerie is all i have left
What does she think of me a trophy
Mom: you have nothing to offer her
He can offer me his love that is all i need
Peter: i have a trade. The same one as your husband
Momma: i know what a woodcutter earns henry is her only hope for a better life
No I'm perfectly fine now along with peter
Mamma: If u love her youll let her go
Thats it he didnt fight back just walked away doesnt he love me. Silent tears run down my face when im done i wipe my tears of my face and walk around.
Peter pov
I shouldve fought for her hand in marriage!!! . I walk into the tavarn to see an agreement
Henry: you wanna hunt lets hunt
I smirk, what acoward i jump onto the ladder
Me: lets kill it
I give henry a wicked smirk when everyone cheers, we go off to hunt the wolf as i go out valerie grabs my hand.
Valerie pov
I grab him and turn him to face me
Me: be careful i lost my sister i cant lose you too
Peter: we cant do this anymore you have to go through with it you have to marry henry
WHAT, my face scrunched up why would he want me to marry henry
Me: but you know i dont want him
Peter: dont make this something wrong we had our fun thats all it ever was
Valerie: i dont believe you
He walked away, i cant believe he said that. I felt a presence next to me I turned to face henry
Henry: i made something for you
He handed me what he had made how sweet oh its beautiful i love it
Henry: i was going to wait for our wedding but uh just incase. You will be happy again i promise
He stepped back i cant help but smile ever since lucy died i havent smiled i think one day i will come to love him.
Me: be careful
He nods and walks off with everyone else, so i follow them to grandmothers house and wait till father stops talking to grandmother then i run to her
Me: grandmother
I run into her arms
Gran: dont worry dont worry
We walk inside and grandmother starts a fire while I sat down
Me: there was so many things she didnt tell me... never sister i shouldve known
I looked down, how could I not have known
Gran: that was her choice We all have secrets
She passes me food
Gran: remember what my grandmother use to say
I smile as I recalled
Both: all sorrows are less with bread
Grandmother walks to her chest and takes out a beautiful red coat
Gran: here try this
I stood and put it on, it would look beautiful it will go nicely with the bracelet that henry gave me
Gran: i was making it for your wedding
My smile falters
Me: i dont feel like its my wedding i feel like im being sold
I lay down and fell asleep
The next day....
I wake up everything is flying around, walk up to grandmothers bed and she sits straight up, creepy
Gran: morning dear
I smile anyway
Me: morning grandmother I should go before mamma figures out that I am here
Grandmother nodded and fed me breakfast she also made sure I made it into the woods. It was cold today. I saw the gates and ran past them walking straight to the cavern.
Grandmother use to tell us stories that the wolf use to snatch inisent victims from their familys those stories never seem real until now.
I walked into the tavarn to see them celebrating killing the wolf
Peter pov
We are all celebrating killing the wolf then i see valerie with a blood red coat. where did she get that, i just cant stop staring at her but unlike before she didnt even notice me staring. then the idiot had to pull a joke causing valerie to turn around and then see henrys father dead and his grandmother crying she then walks outside, i bet to henry. I wish I never told her to marry henry.
Valerie pov
I walked to the blacksmith and saw henry working, I decided to go in
Me: henry your father was a brave man
Henry: you know i was close enough to smell it and i hid from it i didnt do anything i shouldve saved him
He then lashes out at the fire and starts working again, I admit he startled me
Me: henry
Henry: JUST LEAVE I DONT WANT YOU TOO SEE ME LIKE THIS
I walk away, sad that I couldn't help, I looked up into Henry's tavern,, is that my mother mourning henrys father. she sees me and walks away too quikly i run and asked her
Me: it was henrys father wasnt it the man you loved. Lucy was in love with him she was a year older than me she couldve married him why you insist it was me
She stopped
Momma: i think you already know the answer to that
Me: i want you to say it
Momma: lucy was henrys half sister adrian was her father
Me: does papa know about lucy
Mom: no and you can never tell
The horn was ringing
The father: father sulamin is here
I walked and pushed my way to the front of the group Wait are those little kids, i feel sorry for them that father sulumin is their father. They are just blabbing on and i just pretend to listen
Party...
Everyones dancing and having fun because the werewolf is dead. there was entertainment and fire i see peter and just go dance with my friends then i see my papa drunk and people fake humping him. Papa. I walk up and hit the fake wolf, stupid people. I turn and shake papa awake he stands up and I give him a look
Papa: ill just flick this off ill be fit to see tomorrow
I give him a sterner look
Me: papa
Papa: your my good girl im so sorry
I hug him so tight I wish the way of had never come
Me: i know papa just go home ok
I smile as he walked off he just needs rest What i didnt know that he didn't

Friend: so where did you disapeer to
Valerie turned to look at her friend with a smirk
Valerie: you know all that soft hay in the grainery
They just giggle then she feels something bad like a bussing feeling. the wolf jumps out and kills someone and the girls ran away
Valerie pov

Me: RUN RUN GO GET FATHER SULAMEN
