"Maria! I've forgiven you and you aren't going to speak? Are you going to allow me to die in suspense? You shouldn't have come here to tell me this and you knew you would not tell me the whole story," I spat, obviously angry.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, and I sighed.
"Then, rather than staring… Why not explain everything to me, please!" I cried out.
"Jared isn't who you think he is. He's plotting something evil against you," she said, looking at me intently.
I sighed loudly and rolled my eyes. "Just tell me everything already. You have said this before!"
She held my hands and looked deep into my eyes. "Actually, Jared plans to use you…"
"What? Why?" I asked, my eyebrow raising up.
She sighed deeply and took my gaze down. "Jared found out through the witches' clan that you have supernatural powers… unique, and special powers."
"I doubt that," I whispered, shaking my head. "Can you believe that I'm yet to get my wolf? I doubt that I have any powers."
"Not yet. You just need to unlock it and that is what Jared is aiming for," she explained, and I grew curious.
"Did they say the powers that I might have?" I asked, and she took her eyes to my chest.
"Here, the power lies here," she whispered, softly, touching my chest.
"Can you tell me the power that Jared wants so bad that he decided to lie and use me? What is this so-called power all about? Super strength? Teleportation? Invisibility? Healing abilities?" I asked, and her eyes widened.
"Yes!" she replied, nodding.
"What? Healing abilities?" I asked, since she cut me off there.
"Yes… Jared needs the powers since he's quite sick. He kept it away from you, right? Actually, he has been looking for a way to cure his sickness since no medicine could cure it. Nobody even had that unique power, so when he checked with the witch clan and saw that you were the only one that had the powers, he tried to find you everywhere but it seemed like nature was against it. I can just imagine how glad he was when he saw you," she said, and I gulped hard.
"Are you serious?" I asked, skepticism clear in my voice.
"Yes," she replied and her eyes flickered to my stomach. "You're pregnant."
"Yes," I answered, cradling my bulging stomach. "It's pretty obvious."
"Jared knew about your pregnancy before you told him," she blurted out, and my eyes widened in disbelief.
"What are you talking about now?" I asked, my eyes twitching.
"Jared knew you had kids in there!" She said, pointing at my stomach.
"That can't be true. He wasn't acting any differently," I uttered, shaking my head.
