《Because Of You》Chapter 25

Grace POV:
That night Arsen and I went to bed feeling much more clear about each other's feelings. We both talked everything out and it felt great. But even after the talk, I couldn't help but wonder who did kill Arsen's father?
I knew it would be on Arsen's mind as well, now that we established that my pack was innocent and that Arsen would try his best to solve the mystery. I once again woke up in Arsen's arms, and I was up before him too. I took the time to stare at his face. His skin was soft and smooth but he gave off a rugged look. I was tracing over his face when one of his eyes opened up and looked towards me. I froze in action and pulled my my hand back embarrassed.
"Having fun there?" Arsen said jokingly while rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
I shook my head and buried my face into his hard chest.
"Grace?" Arsen called out.
"Hmm." I replied, my face still in his chest.
"My mothers birthday is coming up and she's hosting a birthday ball. She's been waiting to meet you ever since Macy blabbed off about you to her." Arsen said.
Upon hearing "mother" I perked up. I was nervous. What if she didn't like me? What if she didn't think I was good enough for Arsen? I thought frantically.
Babe I can hear your thoughts you know. A voice said in my head.
I looked towards Arsen shocked.
"You're marked now. I can hear and feel your emotions." He said.
"What the heck! Stop listening to my thoughts doofus." I screamed at him huffing.
"Put up your wall and I won't be tempted to listen." He said smugly while I put up my wall.

Arsen then pulled me into his arms, resting his chin on the top of my head. "She'll love you, she's been dying to meet you." He said causing a smile to erupt on my face.
"Well I'm excited to meet her too." I said back to him as his arms tightened around me.
-*-*-*-*-*
"Hey Grace? How's this one?" Sarah said twirling around in a red dress that came above her knees. It had a sweetheart neckline with straps and small beading on the top and the side of the dress. It looked perfect on her tiny figure.
"Gorgeous, I love this one out of the rest." I said to her smiling.
Macy, Sarah, and I all decided to come to the mall to get dresses for the ball which was in two days. We decided to get our nails and any other beauty processes out of the way today as well.
Arsen obviously refused to let me take my own cash and forced his card into my hand. He also ordered security to come with us since they would be busy today and couldn't meet up with us later.
I had a few dresses in my hand and was walking to the fitting room. As soon as I got in, I picked up the dress that caught my eye on the mannequin. The dress was a dark navy blue color. It was a maxi dress that had a slit on the side of the dress to show my legs. It had a silk feel to it and had slits off the shoulder, but still a strap with it. It had a sweetheart neckline and was absolutely beautiful.
"Grace come out! Let us see." I heard Macy saying from the seats in the dressing room.
I walked out and twirled in front of them as they gasped.

"It's amazing Grace, this is the one! It's the one!" Macy said excitedly.
Sarah nodded her head and admired the dress.
Macy was also wearing a dress. It was a black maxi dress that had lacing from the side of the dress to the top of the dress. It also has a slit on the side and complemented Macy's figure well since the dress was hugging her body.
"Okay let's go pay and go to the nail salon next, my nails are horrendous." Macy said walking back to the fitting room to change.
Sarah and I walked back to ours and in no time we were out of the shops with our bags.
As we were walking to the nail salon shivers went up my spine. I had a weird feeling that someone was watching us. Turning back, I looked around the mall. I didn't see anyone out of the blue near us but I couldn't help but feel weird.
"You okay?" Sarah said noticing how I was looking around suspiciously.
"Yeah, I'm fine." I replied forcing a smile towards her direction.
She smiled back and we continued walking, but I still couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong.

I know it's a shorter chapter but this wasn't really am entertaining one, more of a filler.

Statless
Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...
