《Our Ancient Love》Chapter 7: Day 2
Advertisement
By the time I had woken up, it was 5:30 in the afternoon. My mom let me get as much sleep as possible since I had gotten home so late...well early. I jump out of bed and get myself ready for work. I guess this is how my life will be from now on. Going to work around 6pm, working until dawn, going home and sleeping until 5:30pm, and repeat. But it would be worth it since Ahk is in my life. I'm really grateful that I have this job or else I wouldn't have ever met him. As I'm brushing my teeth, I look at the necklace that he gave me that's still around my neck. It shines brightly from the bright sun gleaming into the bathroom.
Once I'm finished with everything, I get dressed, grab my phone and my cars keys, and head downstairs. My parents are sitting at the kitchen table. My dad is reading an article in the newspaper and my mom is eating lunch.
"Hey Y/N. How'd you sleep," my dad asks looking away from the paper to look at me
"Fine I guess. I'm just ready for work," I say.
"Why's that?" my mom asks as she takes a sip from her glass of water.
"Being a night guard is actually really cool! The museum-,". I have to stop myself from continuing. I had to remember that Larry told me that NO ONE can know about the museum coming to life at night. "You find out a lot about the museum," I say.
"Like what?" my dad asks.
"Like....uhm....." I look around the room trying to find an answer.
"Honey just let her leave for work before she's late. She can tell you more later," my mom says.

Thank goodness!
"Right I should be going. Bye," I say as I turn to leave.
"Wait Y/N aren't you going to grab something to eat?" my mom asks.
"I can pick something up on the way there."
"Alright. Bye sweetie."
"Bye."
I walk out the door and head over to my car. I put the car in gear and I'm off to work.
*time passes*
I walk into the museum and see Larry standing up on a ladder at the balcony. He was trying to fix the ledge. Oops. I forgot I broke it.
"Hey Larry," I say as I put my phone and my keys in my pocket.
"Hey Y/N. I'm just fixing this balcony. Dr. McPhee called me this morning about it. I had almost forgotten that it broke."
"Right. That was my fault. I need to remember to pay attention to my surroundings," I shamefully laugh at myself.
"Hey it was an accident. And at least you didn't get hurt, right?"
"Right."
I watch as he connects the broken pieces together.
"So uhm...do you need any help," I ask.
"No I got it. But can you help Nick with his homework while I'm fixing the ledge?" he says, not looking away from the ledge.
"Sure."
I walk over to the front desk and Nick has a workbook open. I closely look and see several paragraphs followed by blank lines. Great. I HATE reading passages and short answer. This is going to be a while.
"Alright so, what do you need help with?"

Alpha's Little Luna
"Tell me girl, why did you and your worthless self waltz into my territory?" An unfamiliar voice booms just before me. I keep my head down as my eyes begin to close. This is it, this is where my life will be ending. I always thought that it might be at the hand of my stepfather, but no. It's of some other guys who also hurt me in torturous ways. Let me tell you that my life has been great. Hint the sarcasm. Suddenly my chin is gripped tightly in a big hand. He forces my head up against my will. No! No I don't want to look at him, I don't want to see his monstrous face. But yet again he's way stronger than I am. So with the last bit of life I had hiding in me I fiercely look into deep blue eyes. Immediately the man's expression changes from a livid, stoic expression to a surprised and soft one. "Mate," I hear him whisper. ~~~Willa is a simple girl who's gotten the short end of the straw in life. Left at a doorstep when she was just a newborn, to both of her adoptive parents dying, ending with her stepfather abusing her almost every night. She thought her escape from the horrid life she had at home was her boyfriend and best friend. Though in the end they both added to the torturous life she was living. So she did the only thing she could think of to get away from the terrible reality that was slowly swallowing her whole. She ran. Little did she know that running into the woods that very night would flip her entire life upside down.----DISCLAIMER: first couple of chapters can be cliche and can use some major editing but I promise the storyline does improve.
