Kathrina POV

"Gift? Why? Weren't you the birthday boy?"

"So? Can't the celebrant give a gift to his cranky friend?"

"That's insulting. I'm not cranky."

"You are." And not giving me the chance to utter another word, she spun me and placed the necklace round my neck.

I whirled, touching the star pendant with my thumb. It actually looked nice and I couldn't help it but to my smile, staring down at it.

"I guess you like it."

"It looks pretty, I have to admit."

"Yeah. More prettier on your neck," he complimented, making me dart my eyes to him.

"But, I didn't ask for a gift," I said, pulling a long face.

"Then you can trash it if you don't want to keep it. Stop making a fuss, Catty."

I chuckled and looked away as he feigned annoyance.

"I'm going in now. You have this." I stretched out the cake to him.

"Feed it to me…please," he requested.

"Take it and eat. I don't necessarily have to feed it to you, you know."

"It's more of a wish. So please grant my wish by feeding it to me."

    Zoey POVI flew to the edge of the road and transformed back to my human self by the wink of an incense.I smiled as I stared down the silent narrow road and started walking up to the body which was lying next to the bike on the ground whose tires ceased to accelerate. I softly hummed as I reached the body and with a smirk, I squatted to take a good look at the person.Kathrina. At last, you met your fall in due time. I burst into laughter as I darted my eyes to the jeep whose bonnet was emitting smoke, slowly rising up to my feet.Earlier, I had strolled down to my heartbeat, Hayden's home from Caroline's home. I longed to see him this night before heading to an energizing club and engaging in my usual forever- exciting bloodsuckery activity.There I saw him. Hayden entered inside his house with an obvious pissed-off look. I had to admit within me, he actually looked more handsome than he ever was tonight with his stern expression.After thinking about it for a few minutes, I decide

    Hayden POVAfter drinking for an hour by the bar fixed in the living room, I slowly arose and headed to my room.Pushing the door of my room open, I heard my phone ring. I took it out from my pocket and exhaled. It was Monna calling."Hey, Hayden," she said with a kind of shaking voice the second I swiped to receive a call."What's up, Monna? Is Kathrina fast asleep now?""No. Actually…Kathrina isn't home."I furrowed my brows, dazed. Where could she possibly have gone after leaving here?"Monna, where's she?" I asked, breaking the brief silence that occured.Hell no, could she have gone over to Rylan's place? I mused."Kathrina got into an accident," Monna said, making my eyes widened. I stumbled back and sighed."What happened, Monna…?""My mom has gone over to the town's hospital with Morley." I hung up and dashed out of the house immediately after I grabbed my car key on the table.I reached the hospital and darted in, almost knocking down a few nurses I encountered as I emerged

I had actually been tied all day in the packhouse attending to some alphas for damn need my help or alliance.I was kind of excited when I saw Kathrina's message earlier in the day.

    Kathrina POV ~~~~~~~~~~ I walked down an eerie unknown narrow path, squinting to see ahead through the darkness. Where was I heading to? I had no idea. I feel I've been going down this path for a while, clutching my penlight which slightly illuminated the path, enabling me to see. I cursed beneath my breath as I halted out of exhaustion. I had no idea how I came across this part. Feeling there was no end to the path, I was about to turn to leave when I heard a creak. "Kathrina?" I heard an old familiar feminine voice. I gasped as I shifted my eyes to see my late grandmother appearing from a hideous corner. "Gram, is that you?" I asked, I'm disbelief as she walked up to me. Her lips were parted and astonishment could clearly be seen on her face. "Gram, you're alive." I attempted to touch her but she took some step back, creating a short distance between us. "Don't touch me, my dear. How are you here?" She asked. "I don't know, Gram. But, I'm really happy to

    Zoey POV After feigning to have drifted to sleep for a while the minute Hayden left, I slowly opened my eyes as the woman who is Kathrina's mom walked in."Um, you're awake now?" She asked with a bright smile. I nodded."Doing better than before…mom."She chuckled. "Hayden left already and he's going to be back by tomorrow morning. I'm going home to get you some clothes.""That's good," I shrugged."And…won't you ask what I presume you've been wanting to ask?"I squinted, trying to decipher what she was talking about. I attempted to read her mind but she laughed softly, stopping me."Don't worry. I've not informed your dad yet. If I had, he'd come running over here.""Oh, that's great.""So, I will be leaving now, dear. Be back before dawn." She rubbed my leg, lovingly and left.Pff, what a work! I jerked off the IV from my hand and brought my feet down, freezing the next second as the door was pushed open.A sigh of relief escaped my nostrils as Caroline walked in and closed the doo

    Kathrina POV After the weird girl left, I could feel the heat of my body increasing, the intensity of uneasiness rising. Suddenly, I could feel my mandible and maxilla creak, a strange feeling in my head. Was inferno burning inside of me? I tried to calm myself, in vain. Something was going on. What was it? I felt the pit of my stomach twist in a knot, and it was a darn fire for me. I tried to move forward, before something peculiar struck on me… Some tough canines protruded out of my jaw, forcing me to let out a bloodcurdling groan. I was tense and frozen as the door slowly opened. A girl showed up at the door and walked in, closing the door behind. "Who…are you?" I asked, hot air escaping my nostrils. "I'm Caroline," she introduced as she walked up to me. "And I know what you are. I can help you…Kathrina." My expression eased, hearing her mention my name. I've never met her in my life? Why does it seem like she knows me? Who was she? I mused. "What did you know?" I asked

    Zoey POVI had tried and forced myself to sleep in excitement last night. I was so happy after seeing Kathrina and witnessed how bewildered she was knowing about how her life had changed in a matter of an hour.The next morning, Caroline walked in with a grimace."You weren't in the room when I returned. Where have you been?" I questioned her."Been trying to clean your mess as always," she said and rolled her eyes, not wanting to talk further about where she had been and what she had been doing."I saw you walk into Kathrina's room after I left. Why went to see her?" I asked.Caroline glanced at me with a displeasing expression as she folded her hands and tilted her head."Yes I went to see. The last thing I would want is for her to die a miserable death, Zoey," Caroline said, shooting me a piercing stare for no reason."So? You tried convincing her to feed on blood, I guess.""Yes. I did. But, she refused. I know it's hard for her now. Nothing is worse than regaining consciousness a

    Zoey POVAfter a brief moment of silence caused by the gawky Lita's question, I finally cleared my throat to answer her question."What? Do I look bad now? Ah, I guess I look unwell due to the accident but I'm still recovering." I lifted up my gaze to Hayden who arose."Hey, sweetheart, am I still not pretty?" I asked him."Gosh, you're too much, sis," Monna said and giggled."You're acting like the accident had an effect on your personality," Morley added, forcing me to pull a long face."You will forever be the prettiest girl to me, Kathrina," Hayden said, brightening me up as he kissed my forehead.I glanced at Rylan whom I felt was staring awkwardly at me but he quickly shifted his gaze to Caroline."Hey, how's the other girl doing?" He asked Caroline in a low tone which I alone clearly heard I guess, due to my hyper-hearing ability."Huh? Who?" Caroline asked. I could see right through her that she was feigning obliviousness."The other girl who had an accident," Rylan said."She

Madlyn had invited them to come over to have lunch with them. They made jokes and chatted while having lunch round the table and Kathrina felt really happy. After dinner, Kathrina walked out with Rylan, his hand locked with hers, both walking behind Caroline and Zita."Guys, I'm leaving tonight," Zita said when they stepped on the lawn and they gave her a shocking expression."Why?" Kathrina asked."Hey, we never spoke about that," Caroline said, feigning annoyance. "Well, it's because…I've got no reason to stay back anymore. I could return to where I came from and carry on living my normal life.""You want to leave, for real?" Rylan asked in disbelief. "I remember you changing your mind a couple of times before.""I'm serious this time, Rylan. I'm leaving…""You're not leaving," a familiar voice said and they turned to see

I couldn't help it but followed him to his place a few days later when I went to see Kathrina in their college.He happened to catch me and invited me into his house for a cup of tea."I wasn't expecting you'd follow me to my place. You're Zita, right?" He asked, u nodded as I took the cup of tea from him."Are you okay?""If you think I'm not, then you're right. I'm not going to act tough after I was rejected by my mate. It hurts. It's all my fault though.""I thought you wouldn't give up on her?""I was thinking about that too. Actually I had no intention of giving up on her before even when I knew she had hated me. But that day, when she rejected me, I saw the firmness in her gaze and knew she really had no feelings for me again. And when she took Rylan's hand and left with him, I knew I've lost her, forever.""So, what's your plans now?""Giving up. Sto

    Kathrina POVThe next day, I went to Caroline's house and she said Zita was in the backyard at the river bank. I went there and saw her holding a small steel silver pot.I walked up to her and faked a cough, causing her to glance at me. "Hey, are you okay?" I asked her.She nodded and smiled. "It's still warm in here." I stared at the pot then it dawned to me what was in there. I looked up at her and she shook her head."That's Zoey's ashes?""Yeah. I was reluctant to throw it into the water. I'm happy you're here. I've gotten the strength to do what I want now."I chuckled. She opened the pot,dipped her hand into it and took a handful of ashes then threw them into the water. She did so till the pot was empty and dropped the pot in the water. We both watched the pot as it flowed on the water surface. "You know, Zoey was the only family member I had in the entire world," she said after a while. "Our parents are dead. We both left the vampire world because we didn't want to be bound t

    Kathrina POV "Let's meet up tonight. Come alone and I'll spare your mother. You can send a message when you're done thinking about it. Your life in exchange for your mom's, sweetheart," Zoey said and hung up before I could say a word and I stared at them. "I'm going to meet her," I said to Caroline and quickly sent a message to Zoey, stating my agreement to her request. "Kathrina, going alone ti see Zoey is freaking risky," Caroline said. I shrugged. "I don't care…" "I'm coming with you," I heard Rylan said, almost yelling as he barged into the house. "No, Rylan. My mom's life is risk here. Zoey wants only me to come." "I knew this would happen someday. I won't let anything bad happen to either you or your mother, Kathrina." "Wait, how did you know that Kathrina had a problem?" Zita asked. "They are mates and their bond have grew stronger since something happened one certain night," I heard Caroline said to Zita in a whisper. "I felt you were in trouble, Kathrina," Rylan said

When I tried to talk to her about it, she said it's nothing.A week later, we were chatting and telling jokes in her Cafe when her mood changed to a gloom after her phone beeped and she glanced at the phone screen."Mom, are you okay?" I asked."Um, yeah. Why ask that?""You've been acting a little bit weird these days. Is there a problem?""Nah. It's just the little stress I face sometimes. You know handling the Cafe alone on some days when it's filled is not really easy peasy. But I do appreciate it when you guys do help out on the weekends, especially you, sweetheart.""Hm. But I've told you to get a sales girl. It would relieve you

    Hayden POV I watched as my mate left, not wanting to accept me. I didn't know why she was so much acquainted with Rylan recently, but then, I knew that it wasn't going to be for long. It wasn't going to be for a long time before she came back to me. I knew that she wasn't going to be for long, and she was going to be mine once again. I was definitely sure of it. Kathrina's words, however, bore deep into my soul. While the fear gyrating around my core had me in place thinking for a moment that I would lose Kathy forever, I tried to shrug it off. It was like a hot dagger slicing through my skin, killing the morale and courage about the future of me and my mate, and it wouldn't stop tormenting me. He was having fun with her. My enemy. "I've told you Hayden , Kathy doesn't belong to you. She's mine, and mine alone," he said, with some vile smirk on his face. Oh how I wish Kathy could see this, then she'd know what kind of person she was looking forward to. "And what claims do you

    Kathrina POVI opened my eyes a while ago, not knowing that some hours had passed. Caroline was in front of me. I looked beside me and saw Zoey. She was no longer in my body but looked just like Zita. I touched my face and Caroline walked up to me with a mirror."Congratulations," she said as I stared in awe at my face in the mirror. At last, I've gotten my face back. I'm now the real me. Kathrina. I turned to Zita after I stood up. She smiled at me. I glanced at Zoey. "What's going on with her?""She's unconscious. And she'll remain so till some time in the morning," Zita said."Thanks so much, Zita. I do appreciate what you've done for me," I said and pulled her into a hug. Then it dawned on me. I slowly turned to see Mrs Fox in front of the car. She walked up to me. "I saw it all…Kathrina," she said. She darted her eyes elsewhere and stared at her daughter's body. She walks to the body and wraps her arm around the body as she bursts into tears. I went to console her. I told her

    Kathrina POVI stared blankly at him as he leaned forward to me. I was about to utter a word, to retaliate to his sudden action but I felt him pressed a button and my seat slightly went back. He did it again and chuckled when I gasped. I pulled up an irritated expression and he grabbed a bag from the back seat and placed it on my lap."What's this?""Check it out and change into it. I got some clothes ready which you could easily change into. I'm sure you've not added weight for over a year. You seemed to be on a diet when I saw you then.""Why should I change my clothes?""I'm taking you to your home. Your fake Mom might probably want to question you when she sees you in black clothes. I'm sure she has no idea that you attended your actual Dad's funeral.""She doesn't even know I've been lying and fooling her all this while." I sighed."You can simply tell her today. I know you're tired of lying to her," he said, peering into my eyes. I wondered how he could tell what I was feeling.
