“Am I in trouble?” I asked, which to me was a really dumb question to ask, considering I left in the middle of Leslie apologizing and also, school won't be over till another thirty minutes.

He chuckled, a small cloud of fog leaving his lips. "I think we're both in trouble, you more so than me though."

Evan chuckled again, before sitting on the bench keeping some inches between us as he stared ahead. I took out one earpiece and handed it to him so it didn't feel rude that I went back blocking him out.

He took it and fixed it into his ear.

“Mazzy star…that's a little old school," he said. "I thought you would be on the current blaze.”

“Current blaze??” I chuckled. “Prof… Evan, no one says that. Not even me who is a little old school.” I said

He shrugged. “Time dynamics is funny. What is old to you is new to me and vice versa with everyone else," he explained. "You would get to understand that someday.”

I didn't know what to say in response, so we just listened to the song in silence, th

    Katie's POV “Miranda is my mate," Evan said out of nowhere. His fingers trace the line curves engraved into the table, creating a shallow depth. His aura changed, and I could tell he was sad.“What happened?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.“She fell ill for an entire year," Evan answered after about a minute. "That was the most difficult phase of my life," he said, his voice filled with sadness. "She got well though, but…" he trailed off.I didn't know what to say or do. I'm not best when it comes to saying comforting words, and right now saying anything to Evan didn't seem like such a good idea.Evan and I sat down in silence until the ice cream came."Don't pay attention to me and enjoy your ice cream," Evan said, his voice no longer filled with sadness.I had blueberry gelato ice cream while Evan had coffee, which I found weird. I haven't really spoken to him enough for him to know my favorite flavor for anything I was taking. I didn't let him know of this but I showed

    Katie's PovHe shrugs it off. “It is the least I can do after all I—you have been through.”I gave Evan a smile in agreement, as we drove to the bus stop."Th–""I'm going to stay here till the bus comes," Evan said before I could thank him and bid him goodbye.I sighed in defeat, because his mind seemed made up, and no amount of words would make him change his mind.Evan and I waited by the bus stop until the bus came and we bid each other goodbye.Arriving at the cafe, I noticed Shedrack had cleaned and set up everything perfectly."Shedrack," I called out to him, and he turned to me with a bright smile, which only made me feel more guilty. "Sorry, I came late, and let you do all the work," I apologized."There's nothing to be sorry for, Katie," Shedrack said dismissively with a smile across his lips. "I just did what anyone would do."I smiled in return and made my way to the backroom to get changed into my work clothes.After changing into my work clothes, I walked over to where S

    Katie’s POVKillian emerges from the dark just behind the walls of the café, “A party would be nice for your edges.” I could already imagine the subtle smug look he would have on his face. I don't know how he does it, I think it is a complex that has to be linked with rich people. Their peculiar ability to act so rude with a perfect smile or neutral like they couldn't give a f**k.“You are no more mysterious, just stalk-ish and uncool," I said irritatedly. "And before you say anything, I have my solid reason why me going to that party might just never work," I suddenly felt the urge to explain myself to him. "One, Donald is not gonna let me go—”“Why don't you just call him your dad?” he interrupted.I cocked my head in disbelief. “If anyone in this goddamn pack was supposed to know how fake my father and I’s relationship is, it is you, his biggest rival who he won't stop yapping about," I pointed out plainly. "It's like you're an insect that had managed to get under his skin. I won

    Killian’s POV“You know what, Ana? I will catch you and let me freshen up.”I left without looking back. Walking straight into a separate elevator which she strolled right into, causing the air to instantly go stale with awkwardness. I totally forgot we took the same private elevator to the top floor rooms where my parents had decided to move her to from the hotel so we could be ‘closer’, regardless of how much I told them I didn't need the extra effort they were putting in to make it work.*Flashback*“Mum, I took her on a date, bought her flowers, and we went strolling. All the while I'm working with the locals for votes and watching over the new business. What more do you want from me??”I had been complaining of her words of ‘encouragement’ which only made me feel like I wasn't doing enough for Ana.“I’m not saying you aren't doing enough for Ana. I'm just saying I know how difficult it can be with your schedule. That's why I brought her closer so you both can be in the same build

    Killian's POV “She said she didn't want to have anything to do with me. In her words, I should just leave her alone.” Hearing myself speak, I felt like a sulking teenager, whining about their crush and not wanting to have anything to do with them. It irritated me. But something about the way she said those words to me with exasperation in her breath made me truly believe she wanted to have nothing to do with me.And all above this, I hated the idea of failing and losing. Failing a simple mission, a task, or losing a huge deal—and in this case, this was a huge deal. Even though at first I thought the woman was just being paranoid.Stephen snickered irritatedly, and I f it for the fact that I actually need the company of someone who wasn't kissing my ass, I would have sent him to the moon goddess herself.“You know, I would have asked what you did to deserve such cold words but knowing you, I can probably imagine pretty clearly what you might have said to hurt her," Stephen said, a mo

    Katie's PovKillian's influence… is Mum's actually extended to my boss as well, as I was giving a few days off to attend Shedrack's party. I rummaged through my closet for over an hour searching for the coolest clothes I could come up with, but all my clothes were pretty much the same. Different colors of faded hoodies, baggy jeans, and some tees. The only feminine clothing I had was the gown my father gave me when he threw a party and planned all those stunts with Killian.After stuffing my bag with my clothes, I put on a pair of jeans and a casual T-shirt, and headed downstairs. The sound of a car horn blasted from outside and I knew Shedrack was here already. According to him, the main event was today and Sunday would be for just lazing around while we tried to recover from our tons of bad decisions. The idea of bad decisions would usually scare me and be enough reason to avoid going to the lake house with them but I was already sold on the idea of living and having this one fun w

    Katie's Pov I turned back around, carrying the last image of her and Ryan's shocked expression, locking it safely in my heart because It was probably the best thing I have seen today since seeing Joanna's wrinkled pissed face.Shedrack had his hands over his mouth trying to block his laughter while Roman was chuckling into his open glass, allowing the wind to carry it behind us even though we could all hear him struggling.“Big fucking burn!!” Shedrack howled, hitting the roof of the car gingerly. I felt proud, happier, and more free than ever. Just seeing her face crumble into a frown through the front mirror while Ryan tried to comfort her made me feel somewhat better. It felt like a payback for the open show she displayed back at the house.“Watch your mouth, little miss, chatty," Jessica poked back. "Don't forget who we are outside all of this.” “Oh oh…” Roman looked between Jessica and me. I wasn't scared but I didn't say anything in reply. The silence faded into a bit of tensi

    Katie's POVI don't know why they called it a lake house. This was a legit mansion but the contemporary setting made it stand out even more, almost twisting my neck in each and every direction. It rolled into different steps and color grades the more we moved in. From the living area with brown bin bags set as the cushion all the way to the pool board and tennis board placed side to side. I didn't think I would ever want to leave.“There is a pool at the back.” Roman and I both stopped and looked at each other with a certain smirk on our faces that grew rapidly into a burst of full-on laughter.The idea of having a pool in a lake house when the house was supposedly close to the lake defeated the whole purpose. But I could understand rich people need to have their way just because they could afford it. If I were rich, I would have employed some big-time sniffer to sniff out the killer of my mother on the scene and not sit and watch them clean off the stain from the road like it was a

    Killian's POV “I actually like her.”I blurted out. The car went silent, only the sound of a live engine and the dull voice of the radio presenter filling the air. The rest of it was pure silence and awkwardness.“Fuck…” I said out loud. Not to the fact I just confessed my feelings for Katie but because It felt good. It felt good to admit it out loud for once that I found every moment with her thrilling.“I don't think you know this but you weren't exactly subtle about it on the trip, you know that, right?” Stephen asked, looking at me through the front mirror. The same mirror I used to flip him my middle finger.“Well you try having a mate you are destined to be with where you can't control how you feel, what you feel and when you feel it. And when your other comes as close as ten inches from you, you can smell their soul. It's that deep.” I said defensively. I hated how it seemed as if I lacked self control when that was like my greatest fort.“Killian, are you saying Katie is you

    Katie's POV I exited the room since that wasn't where my bag and toiletries were. My face was flushed and the memory I had closed the door on, burned alive in my head. I wouldn't stop playing. The moist feeling between my legs told me what to do to make it all feel better. I almost pressed down on the door handle out of a last minute decision, only to decide against it. Self control, self control, self control… I reminded myself as I walked into the next door. Jessica looked better. Her skin wasn't as pale and she was in another hoodie and sweatpant. The only difference between what I wore usually and what she was wearing now was that she had sweatpants on. I gave her a weird look through the mirror as she took care of her hair while she just stared back awkwardly.I was ready to give her some hate till I remembered that she had gone through an operation just the previous day.“This is probably a good time to ask how you are feeling?” I broke the silence. “Less pregnant and in pai

    Katie's POV How did we get here…Killian was asleep beside me on the bed and the time was reading 4:03 PM. Honestly, I had thought I would sleep longer considering how much of it I knew I needed. I turned to look at him again, his thicc carved eyebrows were more relaxed now, his face appeared more calm without those stress lines popping out. His lips were parted but not too wide enough to slip a finger pass. I thought I had the whole thing figured out.I had decided that I was going to continue whatever game this was—generally, he has been super nice to me. And In return, I was also going to be super nice back to him. I wasn't going to put as much energy he was putting in, I would only mirror back whatever he gave to me because I wasn't still sure why he picked so much interest in my life even before we knew we were mates.This morning changed everything I knew and felt towards him—In a good way also.I never thought I would need to say it out loud but I think I have unconsciously f

    Killian's POV“You guys think I joined this willingly?!” Esther cried. Katie stared down at her with disgust before bending down to her eye level.“Ma’am, asides the fact I do not give any fuck about what you think…I also plan on finding out myself every single detail from you even if it takes my last breath.” Katie said with so much hate that left me appalled. If I didn't know better, I would say she sounded just like me. It was exactly something I knew I could say.I felt Melissa's harsh gaze on my side profile but I refused to look her back in the eye. There was no way I was giving her the satisfaction of being right about not allowing Katie to get attached with the whole revenge scheme.This was until she came to my side by the window.“Are you seeing what I am saying or do you want her burning down the whole pack before you believe me when I say you cannot let her anger supercede her. You think I didn't know what I was talking about?! Look back, look at her!!” She forced me to t

    Ryan's POV “Ryan…he was the only one who wasn't healed and still managed to escape without getting killed by the poison…” Katie revealed.“And you just thought of telling me about it now?!” I heard Killian yell.Fuck…I have been caughtSlowly, I tried retracing my steps back up the stairs. I barely stepped on the last one when I heard my name being called.“Hello Ryan…didn't know you fancied snooping around, I would have also had you tied down.” The look in Killian's eyes was far from friendly. I didn't even make it back behind the door of the room I was sleeping in when he swept me off my feet.“Got you.”~~~~Katie's POV I could tell I needed a good sleep when I saw Killian dragging Ryan by the collar down the stairs like a thief. My body didn't react, my mouth wasn't agape nor did I feel any emotion. I was completely numb. I think using my ability came at a cost. I felt numb on the inside like I was a plain white sheet floating across the river to Florida. The way I made sense

    Katie's POV And she did just that. Her groaned out so loud, my attention immediately went to Jessica and Melissa who stood by the corridor watching the ordeal take place.“Are you ready to answer the question?”She nodded her head eagerly. Her face contorted to show how much pain she was in and it only made me smile. Images of myself sleeping off in the waiting room two months ago as I waited and pleaded for a meeting with her but was instead awarded with some petty excuse from her secretary. I refused to feel bad for what I did to her.“So answer it.” She struggled to sit right since her hands were tied behind her. There was not much space or freedom to move with Killian behind her and myself in front of her. “Your mother…Hannah. She was the best in everything. I was second best. No matter what I did, she was just…better. I didn't know how she got away with barely surviving on her little finances and still managing to Ace all the classes. She quickly became the professor’s pet. I

    Killian's POV “HELP!!!”She screamed so loud my ears felt the need to bleed. I had the heavy urge to punch her to sleep again but that in itself wasn't time effective which meant I needed to design another device to make her shut up.“You didn't have to scream so loud like you are that innocent.” I continued to drag her towards the center of the living area. The look on their faces, especially that on Melissa. She didn't look like she was happy to be seated in our midst. I rolled the roller chair out and placed it in the center, putting her before it and sitting on the chair.“You don't need to cry now. Damage has been done.” I said while trying to catch my breath. Pulling her body across the room with my strength at its reserve phase, proved to definitely be a lot more difficult a job than I thought it would be.“You pulled me by the fucking hair, down a polished wooden floor. Do the math why my skull hurts and I need to cry!” She screamed at me. Her voice cracked like that of the i

    Melissa's POV“So…how long has it been—” I checked my time, “ten minutes…wow.” We have been sitting around for the last ten minutes waiting for the both of them to return since they went to make sure that Katie’s abilities worked. I could see that it was going to take more than just some finding out when the time started running past 5 AM.“I didn't want to seem like I was bringing the impatient one but thank God someone said something. How long does it exactly take to ask a question?” Shedrack asked, standing up on his feet and going to turn on the TV that had been turned off since I arrived here.“Guys just give them some time. I am sure they have other things to sort out asides Just knowing if her powers worked alright.” Stephen muttered over his laptop screen that was seated between his legs.“There has been a functioning TV all this while and no one thought to turn it on?” I asked, looking at the smart TV displaying Netflix.“Because no one asked. And besides we were all busy tr

    Killain's POV “Okay…just one more time.” She agreed. I could hear her heart beating like a fair maiden soft drum, but the intervals were so short, it made me worried why. I took a brave step forward. Yes, that's what it was, a brave step. No one was so confident in someone else with this kind of ability but there was a huge part of me that trusted her. Cade trusted her and that just happened to push me into whatever madness this may turn out to be. I cleared my throat and it happened to get her attention as she raised her eyes to mine. She blinked, going down to look at my hand and then my eyes again. I see her swallow hard. “You can ask any question, as deep as you want. Nothing is off book. Just don't ask me to kill myself because I would find a way to kill you instead.” “Killian!” Cade yells at me but I ignore him. It was something that wouldn't leave my head. I just felt the need to say it out just to put it out there. “I figured…” She chuckled nervously. See?! You made t
