Night fall finally came, the moon shown brightly in all it's glory as if it was cheering for Ama.
howling of wolves came from different directions disrupting the peace and quiet of the night.
crickets, frogs and night birds sang and made melody in to the night.
it was 10:00pm and a moon when Ama silently sneaked out of the house and ran into the woods where rogues hunts their prey.
as soon as she got into the woods, she felt cold creeping into her bones causing a breakout of goose bumps all over her body.
Ama ran as fast as her feet could carry her. she was tired, weak and thirsty but she refused to stop. she was scared of the night yet she dares to escape.
She ran for hours none stop until she was out of breath, so she stopped briefly to catch her breath and rest for awhile.
As she sat under a big tree to rest, she began to hear rustling of dry leaves behind her. she became very alert as she stood up gradually turning towards the sound. suddenly a rogue burst out from the bush and tried jumping on her.
she screamed and dodged, falling to the ground. she had no time to nurse her pain, she stood up and ran for her life as the rogue gave her a hot chase.
she ran with all her might but the rogue was faster then her, so he over took her and pushed her to the ground and she fell.
"please spare me, don't kill me. I'm just a little girl running from home to meet my father, please don't kill me I beg you" Ama wept as she pleaded with the rogue.
all her please fell on deaf ears as he charged towards her but was thrown away by a another wolf.
"run away, I will hold him back for you" came the voice of a boy in his wolf form
"thank you, I'm really grateful. I will definitely pay you back someday"
"what's your name little girl?"
"Amariona, but you can call me Ama"
"Darius jr"
"nice to meet you Darius, thank you again, goodbye"
with that she ran for another one hour before she saw a main road.
"human land, I made it!" she exclaimed out of joy as she increased her pace.
By the time she got to the main road, it was already 5:00am in the morning.
Ama stood by the way side drenched in sweat, looking dirty, and bleeding from her head.
she paid no attention to how she looked all she wanted was to find her father.
After standing for another half an hour, a white Bentley drove by and saw Ama in a pitiful state, the driver stopped to assist Ama.
"littler girl, what are you doing here all alone by this time of the morning?"
"Sir pls help me, I need to find my father. He lives at block 28 villa 15 martelos estate"
"I know that address, I live in that estate too. Come in I'll take you there. but first, we need to go to the hospital to get your injury treated okay?"
"That won't be necessary sir, just take me to my father, I will be fine sir"
"Are you sure? you don't look okay young lady"
"I am sure sir, I am fine don't worry"
"okay if you insist, get in"
Ama got in to the car and the man took her straight to her father's house.
He took her into the villa and requested to see Mr martelos saying it's urgent. after waiting for a while, Mr. martelos came down stairs to meet the man and a young girl waiting for him.
when he got closer to them, he was shocked to see that the young girl looked so much like him.
He knew he had a daughter with a werewolf, her family refuse to let him marry her, infact they even planned and took her away when she was only 7 months pregnant.
By the time he found out when he returned from his trip, she was long gone.
He made every effort to find her but couldn't. it was as if she died or disappeared from the surface of the earth.
He was heart broken, it took him a while to get over her.
Now here's a mini him standing in front of him in his living room.
something tells him, this is his daughter.
"Don martelos, sorry to disrupt your morning rest. it's just that I found this child on my way back to the estate this morning and she claimed to be looking for her father, she gave me your address, so I brought her here to confirm if you're her father" said the man
Martelos walked up to the young girl and swat before her. he touched her chin, her hair, her face, then he asked"
"young girl who are you and what's your name?"
"Amariona, you can call me Ama. My mother's name is Irina, I am your daughter don martelos"
"Irina is your mother? she's alive?"
"yes don, I have been with her all this years, I ran away from home" she replied amidst tears.
Hearing the name Irina, and seeing the young lady before him Don Martelos was convinced in his heart that this was his daughter.
He hugged her as she cried non stop.
"it's alright, daddy is here now, no one will ever hurt you again I promise"
he whispered to her as they both shared tears of joy.
