Chapter 31

After walking for what I figured was about three hours, we could see a little village appearing on the horizon. I had asked Harry why we didn’t drive there, to which he replied that Duncan wanted us to get stronger and increase our stamina through the exercise of marching. We walked for another half hour until we were about five minutes away from the village. We were then ordered to sit down and rest. When I asked Harry why, he told us we had to get our strength up before ‘surprising’ the villagers.

Trick or treat. We’re here to eat.

The four of us sat down under a tree; Charlie, Harry, Ben, and me. I took my shoes and socks off and started to rub my feet. They had been used to standing all day in the classroom, not to marching for hours.

“Here, let me do that,” Harry said with an authoritative voice. He took my foot on his lap and began a vigorous foot massage. It hurt a bit but felt great at the same time.

Charlie made it his mission to look in any direction but mine. Harry touching my bare foot was apparently uncomfortable to him, and I felt bad about it even though it was only my foot, and Harry certainly wasn’t touching it in a sensuous way.

Suddenly, a bell rang out in my mind. Was that what was bothering Charlie? Would he be jealous? I reminded myself I had tried to tell Charlie I didn’t love him before we went to sleep, and that he had said he knew that.

So what’s his problem?

When Harry began massaging my other foot, one of the girls from the pack walked up and asked Harry if he could massage her feet too. She had a terrible nasal voice but wasn’t bad looking. Her bright red lipstick was just as notable as her voice. Before Harry had a chance to reply, Ben offered his services to her. There was a flicker of disappointment on her face, but she accepted his offer. Ben excused himself and followed the girl to where she had been sitting.

When it was just the three of us, I turned to Harry.

“Does he know?” I whispered.

“No, he’s too stupid.”

The intelligent tone of Harry’s voice surprised me. Maybe there was more to Harry than I had initially thought. Only time would tell if I was right.

Charlie finally decided to speak.

“So what’ll happen when the hunt starts? How have you been dealing with this so far?” He looked at Harry, still not at me.

“Oh, simple,” Harry said. “I managed to be allowed to hunt and feed on my own. I guess Duncan only agreed because he keeps hoping I don’t survive. Unfortunately for him, I keep disappointing him.” There was a wicked grin on his face.

I was impressed with Harry’s insight. As Charlie chuckled, he accidentally looked at me but immediately glanced away. He seemed adamant to hold a grudge against me. Was he really? I glimpsed the corners of his mouth moving upwards and dimples forming on his cheeks.
