Chapter 5 - the ghost of Evelyn

Aurora woke up the next morning, it was her

third day , and she had adjusted a bit to her

surrounding, only that she felt bored, she had wondered how she got to the bed , as

she recalled she slept off on the floor last

night, she pulled her self into the bathroom,

fixing her self up for the day.she walked down for breakfast to meet Derk who was dressed in a casual outfit, you didn't go to work today?, she asked him.

Am the boss and today's Saturday I can do the rest of the work from home he said studying her facial expression.

I was wondering if we could go out on a date he said for Aurora to look at him

The maids served breakfast and Aurora nodded along with what Derk said.

a date sounds nice she said , rubbing the bam into her bread.

I hope there's hasn't been anything of discomfort Derk asked ?, none except for the fact that my memory still feels blank she said starring down at her food.

Don't push yourself Aurora, you can remember things slowly, why don't we stay in the same room? Aurora asked.

It wasn't that she was interested in being in his room or doing anything with him but it felt weird that as a loving couple that they seemed to be that they weren't sharing the same room.

You wanted us to do that after our wedding Derk said lying smoothly, it was because he didn't want her in the same space with him nor sharing the same bed.

Was I that all prim and proper? Aurora asked, yes he replied putting on a smile.

I would like to start work Aurora said looking at Derk, I want to look for a job, since I have already graduated, am bored from stating alone , she said for Derk to frown.

You have everything you need here he said ,his voice coming out harsher than he expected which had Aurora flinching.

Derk controlled himself breathing in and out , he didn't want her associating with people, as it could trigger her memories.

I just want to protect you Derk said, from what ?, Aurora replied her face contorting to anger, are my not allowed to do what I want ?she asked.

She was suffocating every passing day , losing her mind, she needed to breath and going out more and being productive would help her.

Didn't Derk want her to recover her memories or was there something he didn't want her to remember, are you hiding something from me Derk?

At the question Derk tightened his hands on his fork, she was always curious and suspicious something that had even remained even with her memory loss.

Derk stood up to walk beside her, cupping her face , he leaned down placing a deep kiss her on her lips, surprising Aurora whose eyes widened in surprise.

Derk pulled away from her, his eyes studying her features deep blue eyes , staring back at him, no doubt Aurora was a beautiful woman.

but he knew he was too selfish to appreciate something good.

Aurora touched her lips , feeling the place derk's lips has just left, and looked at Derk who was still standing Infront of her.

I hadn't kissed you in a while now, Derk said finally returning back to his seat.

If working would make you happy then go ahead, but allow me to help you with the work, after all you are my responsibility Aurora .

I would help you get a work in one of the law from here in Petrock Derk said and Aurora nodded, that would be nice , I can't wait to get some fresh air she said putting her concentration back to her food.

Breakfast went well, and Aurora's mind couldn't help but drift back time to time to the kiss she shared with Derk.

She had went back to the parlor as she decided to watch a drama, to keep herself busy till her date with Derk.

the two ghosts Evelyn and George Had been trying to get into the house, but were afraid due to the wolf's presence.

it was strange to them how they had the sudden urge to be around the girl which felt abnormal.

They could see more ghosts beginning to encircle the house and not all ghosts were nice , especially the vengeful ones which did more harm than good.

They would love to warn the girl about the sudden change but didn't know how to make physical contact with her.

The key of mysteries was an artifact as old as the existence of the supernatural.

which contained powers both the good and bad and the bearer of the key was always placed in danger talk more of when it was a human being it's keeper this time.

The ghost Evelyn saw a maid who was about to enter the house, and a thought came to her mind .

she could actually posses the human though for a short period of time but that would be enough to pass across a message to her.

She ran into the maids body as the maids paused for a second holding her head which was throbbing in pain, gaining control of a human's was difficult but if the ghost will to poses were stronger it usually worked.

She walked down the halls of the mansion, looking left and right , trying to remember the exact location of the lady's room.

Derk who was in his study room, had smelt the same scent he had found in his house yesterday, his wolf side had abilities that were different from the rest of the wolves , which had often made him to stand out amongst the rest of the alpha's.

He walked down the halls sniffing the scent to find out it lead to Aurora room who has retired after tiring her eyes from watching movies.

The maid had come to stand Infront of Aurora's room ,almost turning the door knob only for someone to drag her away .

Derk threw the maid into the room, staring her into the eyes, why do you smell strange?, he said to find the maids eyes widen.

I wanted to ask the lady if she needed anything asked Evelyn the ghost in the maids body, that wasn't the answer to my question.

You don't smell human, he said releasing his alpha aura which pressured down hardly on the maid .

I am ghost , I had just temporary possed this maids body, I only wanted to warn the lady of the house, Evelyn said as she couldn't bear the pressure anymore.

What do you want to warn her about? Derk ask snearing as his eyes had changed from a red glint to a bright golden colour, which was one of the sign of transformation.

I wanted to warn her about other ghosts, she had accidentally unlocked a part of the mystery key, she unlocked resonance.

Derk freed the maid whose body dropped with a loud thud on the floor, as she panted for air, you better give me a proper explanation of what you just said, Derk said going to sit down on his chair
