Kathrina POV

After school hours on Friday, I ran into the girls locker room and grabbed my sports pair of black shorts and a pouchy-like yellow tee. After changing into it, I ran out to the soccer field.

Getting to the center of the field, I joined the last line of girls doing jumping jacks as warm-up.

I glanced at Lily, Ginger and Summer at the front line and darted my eyes to Trixie advancing. Her hair was tied to a bun.

Almost reaching us, she stopped and smiled back at someone.

I trailed her eyes to Rylan. She ran up to him and I rolled my eyes. He was putting on a pair of loose shorts that stopped midway between his thighs and a muscle shirt. He was wearing sneakers with one hand sleeve which made me believe he probably was among the basketball players of the school though I haven't seen him play the sport before.

I stared at his abs which were partly transparent and shook my head, stopping myself from checking him out. He flicked a stare at me and I looked away. I returned my

    Rylan POV I really didn't tell Trixie to hurt Kathrina while they were on the field. I only whispered to her to take care of herself the minute I caught Kathrina staring. I headed to the field to talk to Trixie after changing into my outfit. "What are you doing here, Rylan?" Coach Dylan asked me and I simply walked up to Trixie and grabbed her arm. "Follow me." I dragged her along, walking out of the field. "What's wrong, Rylan?" Trixie asked as I pulled her into the building and we walked through the quiet hallway. I stopped when we got halfway down the hall and spun Trixie to face me. "Gosh, you almost broke my arm," she squealed, staring at the mark that had now formed round her white arm. "Why did you throw a ball at Kathrina?" "I gave the bitch what she deserved. Is this your way of showing gratitude to me for almost breaking her imperfect nose?" She attempted to touch my face but I grabbed her shoulders. "How dare you hurt her?" "Are you upset about it? I thought

    Kathrina POV"Oh my, I forgot my hoodie in my locker after I changed back to my outfit when we were done practicing!" I had abruptly stopped when I and Lita were just five minutes away from her house."I need to go grab it…""C'mon, it's not going to grow legs and run away from your locker, Kathrina," Lita said and I sighed. "Let's go."I shook my head. It was the green juicy floppy cute rabbit-ears hoodie Hayden gifted me some weeks ago. I really love wearing it on a snowy or cold night because it always keeps me warm and makes me feel Hayden was with me, thus, having a wonderful night's sleep.It seems like it's going to snow way too much tonight and I can't leave it behind school since it's Friday today and that means if I don't rush back to grab it then I will have to wait till Monday. Never."Kathrina, you can get it on Monday…""No, Lita," I countered with a frown, making her groan."You know you can't enter the school premises after school hours.""Huh?""It's verboten and it i

    Kathrina POVTwo weeks later:"Hey, your food is getting cold," Lita said, almost yelling, jolting me out of my thoughts.I glanced at Hayden seated next to me who was staring at me and I faked a smile, taking my spoon."Geez, you were just staring at your plate of macaroni and cheese like it wasn't what you wanted to have today for lunch," Lita said."If you don't want to have this, I can go get you something else from the counter," Hayden proposed."Nah. I went for this. I love it," I said and glanced at Lita as I took my first spoon."Gurrrl,you seem lost for about five minutes. What are you thinking about?" Lita asked. Looking at her, I could see the curiosity oozing from her."It's nothing," I lied. I was actually thinking about what has been going on with me for some time now."You don't seem good. Are you sick?" Hayden asked, placing his hand on my bare lap.I chuckled. "Do I look sick?""Way sick and more like a person who had been suffering from insomnia," Lita said." I don'

    Kathrina POVAll through the remaining classes we had for the day, Lita didn't say a word to me and when I tried talking to her, she just ignored me completely. She even went home without informing me. It was five minutes past five in the evening. I was stepping down the stairs when Morley called out to me and told me Lita came."Lita," I said as I walked up to her at the door. "You know you really are something," she said and smacked my butt."Hey, what's your problem now?" I asked. "That hurts," I cried, rubbing my butt."You didn't even think of dropping by my house so we could settle things, huh? Is that how much you value our friendship?" "No, Lita. Seeing you didn't talk to me after you stomped out of the cafeteria…I simply thought you were so upset with me and won't let me in if I drop by your house to talk to you…""That's not an excuse, gurrl." She shoved past me and slumped on the couch."You could have texted me, you know?""Well…""Or do you think I won't read your mess

    Kathrina POVNow, honestly,my last wish seemed to happen way faster than I had imagined. Lie? Maybe. I couldn't believe it for a while. I thought I could enjoy myself a bit without Hayden and not having to meet Rylan then return home after the party. "You mind taking your hands off my chest," he said and then it dawned on me that my hands were still placed on his chest as I stared at him.I pushed him back, taking my hands of his cheat and he laughed.Seeing him now made my expression turn grim."Hey, chill. I don't bite in public," he teased me, smirking. I felt like giving him a punch straight to his stupid nose."Whatever, I don't care and you know why?" I put on my bold look. "It's because I don't fear a stupid dick, like you."He let out a despiteful chuckle and leaned forward."Okay. We will see to that," he whispered with gritted teeth.I clenched a handful of my gown, resisting the urge to slap him so hard across the face as I glared at him."Just enjoy the party…for now," he

    Rylan POVWhy isn't she moving or attempting to come out of the water? I thought to myself as I hid in the darkness watching Kathrina after she fell into the water.'I've got nyctophobia…' hearing those words earlier had struck me. I never knew she was nyctophobic neither do I know she had a phobia.Could it be that she has…"Lita! Kathrina is unconscious in the pool!!!" The yell of Max confirmed my thoughts and I flicked a glance at him as he ran into the house.Fuck, the fool didn't even brought her out of the water first before calling out to her friend.You've got to save her now, Red groaned inside me anxiously. Yes. I have to. She's still my mate.Taking some steps forward, I stopped and hid behind some flowers, the darkness rendering me unnoticeable as I saw some people rushing out from the inside."Kathrina!" Lita screamed as she ran to the edge of the pool and jumped into it to save her friend. I watched as Max got into the water and carried Kathrina out.Laying her on the gr

    Kathrina POVSlowly, I opened my eyes and glanced around. Goodness me, where am I? I asked myself in my mind. By the strange smell, it dawned on me some seconds later that I was in the hospital. But, why am I in the hospital?I glanced at my right to see Lita seated next to me on a chair, her head buried in her palms."Lita," I called."Hmm." She jerked up her head and stared at me wide-eyed. "You're awake?" She pulled her chair closer and sighed."Obviously. What happened?" I asked. "Where am I?" I asked her to confirm if my thought was correct."I should be asking you the first question. And the answer to the second question is that you're in the hospital. Don't tell me it isn't obvious."I glanced around and nodded."What happened, Kathy? We found you at the pool unconscious." I looked aside as it flashed in my mind how I had rushed out of the storeroom, making me remember what happened. "Well…please don't tell me you informed my mom about this?" I asked, ignoring her question.

    Kathrina POV I walked straight to school the next morning after dropping by Lita's house. She had already left quite early before me.Almost reaching the school,my phone beeped. I took it out of my pocket. It was a message from Hayden.How're you doing sunshine?, his text said.I smiled and stopped in front of a sweet stall.I'm good. I replied.Are you at school already? I asked quickly.Yes. Waiting for you at the back of the school by the fence, he texted.Let's meet up there, he said.Sure, on my way, I texted.Passing the front of the school building, I got Lita's message.Where are you? It said.I'm heading to meet Hayden by the fence. See you in class soon, I texted back.I increased my pace to the fence and smiled when I saw Hayden."Kathrina," he muttered and hugged me."Are you alright?" He asked."Maybe I will get all better after a kiss," I said, grinning. He chuckled and cupped my face as I peered into his glittering charming hazel eyes. He brought down his head and pre

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

    Zita POVAfter Kathrina left that morning, I saw a big disappointment on Hayden's face. I don't know why but I felt pity for him. 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

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

Since then, she started acting strange. Morley talked to me one day about it and he had observed that she's been getting a couple of strange calls from an unknown number. 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.
