Then, someone called out to him. "Katie, go up to the second floor and meet me at the very end of the
room."
Katie turned back and walked up the stairs. She walked slowly while watching her surroundings. Fred's
house was very quiet and looks like no one stay there. No one was seen in the house. Katie was
starting to wonder if Fred had been living alone all this time? But, when Peter was alive, where did
Peter live? Katie had always thought that Peter was living with Fred.
The sound of Katie's high heels echoed throughout the room on the second floor. The girl walked
slowly while looking left and right observing every corner of the house. Then, she arrived at the door of
a room at the very end of the second floor. Then, Katie started knocking softly on the door.
"Fred, may I come in?" she asked.
"Come in," he replied.
Katie pushed the doorknob down and the door opened. Fred was seen sitting at his desk smoking a
cigarette. After entering the room and closing the door, Katie walked over to Fred and sat across from
him.
"Fred," she said.
"This is very rare. You're someone that Scott trusts, but you are coming to see me for a purpose. I'm
really curious, what do you want to discuss with me?" asked Fred suspiciously.
“This is about the territory you are fighting over. I have Scott's weak point,” Katie replied.
"Oh yeah, what's that? What in return are you asking for this information?” asked Fred.
“Before I say any further. You have to promise to follow all my instructions, how about that?” Katie
asked.
"Okay. Now hurry up and say it."
“Scott's mate is in town. She's a human who has the destiny to be Scott's Luna. The girl's name is Lisa
and she is Dorothy's granddaughter. You must know who that woman is. I want you to kidnap and keep
Lisa away from Scott. Get her as far away from Stowe as possible until Scott can't find her. Then Scott
will feel down and try hard to search for Lisa's whereabouts until he forgets everything, his
responsibilities, his territory, and everything he owns. That's if you're willing," Katie said.
Fred glared at Katie. His mind was trying to understand the girl's explanation.
"Don't you feel pity for that girl? Why should she be involved in this?” asked Fred.
"Honestly I feel sorry for her, but I don't want her to have Scott. I love Scott and want him to be mine.
So please help me make all this happen. You'll get territory, I'll get Scott,” Katie replied.
“Why are you so sure that I will cooperate with you? Without your help, I can achieve my goal” asked
Fred.
"Really? You can never beat Scott's strengths without knowing what his weaknesses are. So far you
have never been able to beat him. With the girl as his weakness, it will be easier for you to seize
Scott's territory. But, remember, never hurt Scott."
"Hahaha well let's plan things well," replied Fred.
That night, they began to devise a plan to seize part of Scott's territory and remove Lisa from his life.
Katie laughed with satisfaction in her heart, and so did Fred. The man couldn't wait to get more territory
soon.
On the other hand, Scott and Lisa had finished dancing. They were the last couple to leave the cafe.
They laughed happily while holding hands. Happiness and warmth looked clearly from their faces.
"Scott, why don't we notice that someone else has left the cafe?" Lisa asked.
"Hahaha to be honest I knew they have left one by one, but I saw you still wanted to dance, so I kept
quiet and continued to dance with you," replied Scott.
"You should have told me so the musicians didn't have to wait for us to finish dancing."
"It's okay, Lisa. You don't have to think too much. Oh yeah, do you want me to show you around town?”
asked Scott.
“Scott, how do we get to your car? It's downpour," Lisa asked panicked.
"Wait here, I'll run and get the umbrella," he replied.
But apparently, a female employee saw them who were trapped in the rain. Then, the woman walked
up to them and offered to help. They happily accepted the offer. The woman gave Scott and Lisa an
umbrella.
Without wasting any time, Scott immediately opened the umbrella and led Lisa to his car. In the car, the
cold air from the rain was still felt. The girl's body seemed to shiver. Scott who realized this then took off
his jacket and gave it to Lisa.
"Lisa, wear my jacket so you don't get cold," he said.
"No thanks, Scott. You will get cold. I'm wearing a jacket too."
“But, your body looks cold. Wear this. I can endure the cold because of the rain. Put it on quickly."
Then, Lisa took the man's sweater and immediately put it on. The scent of Scott's perfume could be
smelled when Lisa put on the sweater.
Lisa's feelings were touched by all the kindness Scott did. Then, the car slowly moved away from the
cafe area towards the highway. Along the way there was not much conversation going on, they were
both still feeling nervous.
"Lisa, would you like to see the night view from the top of the hill?" asked Scott.
"I want to, but isn't it dangerous when it rains like this?" Lisa asked.
"Not. Alright, let's head over there now." Then, Scott immediately drove his car to the top of the hill
which has a spectacular view at night.
Arriving at the top of the hill, the night wind blew quite hard when Lisa opened the car window. Lisa
shivered with cold. Scott, who was beside her, immediately hugged her from behind. Of course, this
made Lisa surprise.
"S-Scott," she said nervously.
"Let me hug you for a second," Scott pleaded.
Lisa looked and touched Scott's hand that was wrapped around her waist. She felt very comfortable
and warm in Scott's arms.
"Do you like it?" asked Scott.
"Um." Lisa didn't answer, she just cleared her throat.
"Why didn't you answer? Then, sorry, I'll let go of my arms, "said Scott.
"Scott, d-don't let go," said an embarrassed Lisa.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Can you say it one more time?" Scott asked with a smile.
