Chapter 72
Austin knew how flirty Derrick could get even if he had a mate so he decided to break it up with a cough and a change of topic.
” So it’s alright y’all already know each other, I am hungry who wants to go out to eat something” he said raising up his hands, which was followed by a series of hands that were raised up too.
They all then went out to a nearby restaurant
“You all are a set of maniacs’ ‘ Mirabel said as she watched the way Audrey and Austin were dancing, whining their waist to the sound of Bam Bam by Camilla Cabello and Edsheeran which was blasting out from the restaurant’s loudspeakers.
“No, no for real this dance has crack in it, it makes me want to dance so hard and forget about all of my problems”Audrey said still dancing to the song he could not help but keep moving his feet as the song played out loudly.
“Austin you need to hold your friend he seems happier than usual” Mirabel teased hitting him playfully
” Well let go of my friend for a minute let us talk about us
Austin said sitting down beside her and looking at her with all seriousness.
Derrick who had been sitting down quietly all this period stood immediately he saw Austin trying to flirt with Mirabel, the sight infuriated him “lol, I should have begged Sophie to tag along if I knew y’all were going to oppress me” he said jokingly and stood up.
This made Austin laugh so hard ” you don’t need to man, we are in New York there are tons of girls to go round for us” Austin said jokingly and laughed
“Ewww, I am a one girl kind of man, with all the Stops flying around I will rather stick with the one I have” Derrick said eyeing his friend, standing up to leave.
He needed to take a break from all the lovers around him, so he decided to go out and take fresh air for a while. As soon as he stepped out he noticed how busy everywhere he turned were. He decided to take a walk down the streets to see if there was anything captivating that would catch his fancy or something he would like.
As he moved along he saw a field with different games and one of the games reminded him of his younger days, where his mum would take him and Audrey to fight for Teddy bears, making sure the teddy bears don’t fall off, they catch as much as they can get. His mum would play the game as many times as possible and she was always winning, as he passed through the place he remembered so many fond memories of his mother.
He had not walked for long when he saw the Raven he had seen earlier but this time he was with two other ravens and this time they were both heading for the restaurant his brother was in.
He quietly followed them back unnoticed, tracing their steps quietly so they would not know that they were being followed, he noticed that he was right they were actually heading for the restaurant.
“Oh boy I was wrong, I did not know that they would strike this early” he said to himself.
He tried calling Audrey’s phone but he was not picking up as it seemed like they were having plenty of fun with Audrey singing a karaoke for them, he watched in amusement how his brother was embarrassing their family lineage.
” What is this boy doing?” he said and scoffed.
He tried calling Audrey again but all to no avail, he then decided to give the rest of the team a call but their phones were all busy, none of them seemed to be picking their calls. He then decided to divert people’s attention towards him so he could give them a sign that the Ravens were around so they could make a run for their lives.
Derrick enters the restaurant pretending to be drunk with drinks spilled all over his body and him slurring his words, he pretends to stumble on a nearby chair leaning towards where his brother was seated, using the corner of his eyes to show them the door meaning that the Ravens were outside but they did not seem to be getting it.
“Derrick, just what did you drink that you are so drunk?” Audrey asked laughing as he was trying to put his brother down on a chair to sit.
The quartet all began laughing at how wasted they thought Derrick was; at least at that moment Derrick’s acting was working as the Ravens did not seem to enter into the place. They could not enter when there was so much chaos in the building it would make all eyes be on them. Derrick kept up with the act and slurring his words pretending to be a really drunk person when a sudden realization dawned on Austin about the real situation.
“Guys I don’t think Derrick is drunk, he is trying to give us a signal something is not right and we need to get out of here as soon as possible” Austin said in a frantic voice.
“What do you mean by he is not drunk, can you not see that he is actually drunk, he is displaying all the characteristics of a drunk person” Stephanie said and laughed it off.
Audrey then decided to take a look at his brother’s hands, they were pointing in a particular direction, he did not feel alcohol when he smelled him and he seemed to be sitting in one particular position and displaying for them.
” Guysss, Austin is right, you need to believe us we are werewolves our instincts do not deceive us, in the first place my brother hardly ever drinks, plus he is not even smelling of alcohol, you can come and take a look and smell him, you need to check that bottle he is pointing towards a particular direction” Audrey said , admonishing Derrick to stop his drunken act and actually tell them what is going on while urging Stephanie and Mirabel to follow his lead. When their eyes followed the bottle in Derrick’s hands they noticed two men standing outside looking through the glass door of the restaurant.
Audrey could not hold it in any longer , he told Austin to take care of the girls while he confronted them outside. By this time Derrick had ended his act, he decided to follow his brother outside this time and speak to the Ravens who have been terrorizing them.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
” What do both of you want” Audrey said as he approached them
” You know what we want Audrey, you guys know what we want” they both said simultaneously
” I do not know what you want and I definitely do not have what you want because if it is my girl that you guys want it ain’t gonna happen” Audrey said angrily.
” Why have you been following my brother, you went to his gym class, you followed him to the basketball court, what exactly do you guys want isn’t that stalking already is that what your leaders sent you to do in New York” Derrick asked in annoyance.
