2022-09-19 22:27:24Hayden POV
Savoring the lips of Kathrina, I sensed someone was watching us,so, I unintentionally broke the good moment and darted my gaze to the forest where my hunch said someone was probably hiding behind a fig or fallen branch.
"What's wrong?" Ignoring Kathrina's question, I glanced around hoping to catch a glimpse of a figure, wondering who could be watching us.
I returned my gaze to her and inhaled deeply, trying to see if I could find out who the person was by figuring it's scent Webecause Aiden feels it's no human and so do I. It can't be Rayana trying to pull up a stunt now if maybe she already found out from Skye that I've found my mate but…
"Hayden," Kathrina called as she held my face, making me return my focus to her.
"Yes?"
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
"Um…it's…nothing," I said and forced a smile. "I'm sorry if I had startled you by breaking off from our nice moment." I pecked her lips and she chuckled.
"It's okay, boyfriend," she said and we both laughed slightly.
"Let's go now. I'll take you home," I said and we got into the car and I drove to her place.
I halted when I reached her house and glanced at her brother standing at the top staircase to the porch.
"Should I walk you in?" I asked and she nodded.
"Let's catch up tomorrow. We'll have lunch together at school," she said.
"Okay. Goodnight. Call me before you sleep and if perhaps you were spanked by your mom for coming a bit late, then_" I placed my hand on hers resting on her laps."_ I will sing you a lullaby as a soother." She tittered and shook her head.
"You probably suck at singing. I'll surely call you before I sleep though."
I stared at Morley who was directly giving me a stern expression through the windscreen and squinted at Kathrina.
"Does your brother dislike me?" She furrowed her brows, glanced at him and chuckled.
"Just ignore him. Bye." She got down from the car and I stared at her as she walked up to her brother. I sensed he was waiting for me to leave before talking to Kathrina who was staring at him and I reversed and headed to the packhouse. What a guy.
"Did Rayana leave the packhouse today?" I asked Skye the very second I walked into the packhouse and caught a glimpse of him.
"No," he answered as we walked into my office. I took off my jacket and tossed it to the couch. "She was helping me out with the formal training today at school."
" Really?"
"Yes, we just had dinner with your mom and she's off to her room. Why ask by the way?" Skye said and I shook my head. I definitely knew it couldn't be my sister.
"I wonder what's wrong with her? "
"Pardon?"
"If she fucking doesn't want to school in lake Town then why enroll there? " I asked in bafflement as I slumped on my chair.
Skye chuckled. "She didn't want to go to school here and have your mother and aunt scolding her most times. She said she feels free like a bird schooling in Grace Hood High."
"She hasn't been coming to school for sometime now. It's been two months already and I'm pissed off when the teachers there, especially the principal keep asking about her. I just lied she was out of town."
"So?"
"Trust me, Skye, if I had known better, I wouldn't have enrolled her there with our surname. She's probably going to draw the curiosity of some people sooner than I expect then, boom! Our identity will be exposed."
"Don't worry. I talked to her earlier. She'll be resuming before the test week kicks on." I sighed.
"What's wrong? You seem disturbed."
"Someone is watching me, Skye," I said, arising.
"You got an idea who it might be?" I nodded. "Maybe it's a spy of our rival packs…"
"C'mon you know I don't stack the records of our rivals." Skye smirked.
"Maybe it's a foe of your dad."
"You know it's not true. But, now that I think of it more, I think it's…Rylan." Skye's brows furrowed.
"You think he has got someone watching you? You could have hunted the person down the moment you sensed you were being watched…"
"I was with my mate. Kathrina." Skye rolled his eyes and exhaled as I took my seat.
"So? What are you thinking about?"
"Hm?"
"Rylan. What do you think his first step would be against you?" Skye asked and I squinted. I really haven't been thinking much about Rylan these past few weeks. I was more focused on my mate and the pack.
"You think he will come after me?" I asked and Skye nodded.
"Though, I think you guys are likely to meet soon. Maybe here or…"
"It got to be here. I'll try to clear things out with him."
"Hayden…Rylan lost his brother and you know who was responsible for it." Skye paused, staring at me. "You think he will easily clear things out with you. He's no longer your friend. He's probably an enemy now thinking of how to get back at you and waiting for the right time. Just be prepared."
"You know he won't be able to take me down if he goes one on one with me," I said with a bit of imperiousness as I took a file on the table to go through it.
"I would advise…you don't look down on Rylan," Skye said, stopping me from going through the file and I darted my gaze to him.
"He's an alpha now. His strength can be equivalent to yours. And…if he has been really training non-stop these past few months, then there's a chance that he is quite stronger than you."
"Whatever," I said and shrugged.
"You should stop going to the town for now and stay back and put your while focus on the pack and training. You're greatly strong as an alpha but that doesn't mean you should stop training." He paused as I arched a brow at him feigning annoyance."Kathrina…"
"I can look after your mate for the time being. She's not going to be hounded by anyone…not even Rylan because I am sure he doesn't know you've found your mate."
"I doubt."
"But…"
"Dont worry. Nothing wrong will happen. I'll keep watching after my mate and the pack." I stood up and headed to the door.
"Tomorrow is Thursday," Skye said and I stopped, my hand on the door knob.
"Its pack runs tomorrow by 5pm. You'll be able to make it, right?"
I brushed my nose with my thumb and sighed.
"Maybe…"
"The pack would appreciate your presence. You've missed the pack runs the last two weeks even after shifting the time from 3pm to 5pm. "
"I'll try my best to make it. Just handle things with my aunt tomorrow. I'll surely meet up with you guys before the pack runs ends." With that, I walked out and headed to my room.

Rylan POVI walked into my office with my beta, Xander, behind and sneered at the sight of Jack, the alpha of the mystic moon pack whose border is just a kilometer away from the pack. "Hello, Rylan," he stated casually as I took my seat and flicked a glance at him. I growled and he chuckled."My bad, alpha Rylan," he corrected himself."The next time you address me with disrespect, I'm surely going to knock off your teeth and give it to your mates to feed on in place of meat," I threatened and I glanced at his fist on the table which he clenched. I bet he was upset now. I really would love to see him react so we can have a brawl then I'll surely rip off his head and fufil my long wish. Jack was my late uncle's friend. He was a sly crook which I detested for always licking my uncle's ass and buttering him most times with his sweet poisonous mouth. "Forgive my manners Rylan…alpha Rylan," Jack said and I smirked before staring at Xander standing few inches behind Jack."So, why do you

Hayden POV Rylan's last words made me a bit anxious. I was trying to find out what was on his mind or better still get an idea of what he was up to but it was a failure. Hayden is always good at hiding his feelings and that's the major scary reason. I can't believe he just dropped by to see me. "What did he say?" Skye asked, walking in. "Nothing," I said, taking my seat. "Did you get a hint of what was on his head?" "Nop. You know Hayden is a guru at covering his feelings. I couldn't see through him, Skye." I punched the table in frustration and sighed. "You seem anxious. What did he say?" "Let's forget about him. I won't let him get into my head." "You can't just look past Hayden. You know he's no good guy now. You need…" "I need to leave now." I stood up. "Off to where?" "School, man. My Kathrina is probably waiting to see me." "It's past 10am…" "No one will stop me from entering the school building." "The gatekeeper?" "I handled him the last time. He is terrified by

Kathrina POV I had lunch with Hayden during lunch break the next day. It was not really obvious we were actually dating because I had told him we should keep it low for the meantime. "What do you think when you hear the word 'werewolf', Lita?" I asked Lita. It was Monday and we just finished our history class before the bell was rung for lunch break. We were going to take our seats after grabbing our food. "Well," Lita said as we walked up to our favorite table which was empty and took our seats. "I really haven't heard anything about a werewolf before till today. Mr Jake said they're likely to exist, you know." My shoulders slumped and I sighed before looking around in search of Hayden. I haven't seen him since this morning. Lita noticed and asked. "Searching for someone?" I shook my head. "This morning's classes have been so boring. Our timetable should be changed. What did you think, Lita?" "It's quite fine. I really enjoyed the history class this morning." "Because Mr Jak

Rylan POV I had decided to return to Grace Hood High to give Hayden a shocking surprise because I know he probably would have thought that I was never going to come back for him let alone return to school. I jumped out from my Jeep and walked into the building with a smile on my face, so impatient to see Hayden. "Look, Rylan is back!" A girl yelled the moment I walked into the foyer and other girls bursting out from the hallway that led to the cafeteria and jogging down the stairs ran down to the foyer. I know most people would be shocked to see me. I thought about going to the head office where I could possibly find Mrs Pierce, the vice principal who I am sure would gladly welcome me with kisses for she was so fond of me but taking a step forward, I stopped as I felt my wolf stir-up, trying to come out. "What's gotten into you, Red?" I asked in a low tone as I turned, backing the students who were staring at me but he didn't reply. I could feel he was bothered. Maybe he wasn

Kathrina POVI walked down to my class. Mr Tom was already in mathematics class. He darted his gaze from my classmates to me and I glanced at the topic for today's class written on the board. "You know I don't like someone walking in after I've written my topic, Kathrina," he said and I nodded, looking down to the floor."I'm sorry sir," I apologized like an innocent lamb. I lifted my gaze to meet his unlikely stare."Go take your seat," he said and I mouthed a 'thank you' before walking to the middle of the class and taking my seat. I glanced at Lita and she shook her head."You've met Rylan?" Lita asked me during lunch break while we were eating and I nodded. I looked around and she cleared her throat, making me return my gaze to her."Hayden left already," she told me and I sighed. He sometimes leaves school and sneaks in or doesn't even return. Sometimes I wondered if he had a secret business he was taking care of or maybe he was a mafia or a leader of an organization who deals i

Hayden POV The usual morning training of my pack was almost rounding up. Despite returning home after leaving school before the actual time to attend meetings which I had postponed and returning quite late, I still had to wake up by 6am to supervise the training for this morning as always. "You had lots of missed calls from Kathrina yesterday," Skye whispered to me from behind while I was guiding Lily, a daughter of one of my gammas,on how to attack. I held him by the elbow and pulled him along to the edge of the training ground where we could talk. "Really?" He nodded and gave me my phone. Fuck! 50 missed calls! She even called before dawn. I bet she's worried. I did not have the chance to return her calls last night because I had given my phone to Skye so it won't be a distraction for me. "Maybe I should return her calls now…" "Oh yes! That will be great," Rayana's voice cut in and Skye and I darted our gaze to her as she approached. "You're just waking up?" I asked as I gl

Hayden POV Arriving at the school, I was over two hours late, mostly because I had to see the alpha queen and talk about expanding my pack territory, so I wasn't able to see Kathrina before her first class took place and got a hug. All through the morning classes till it was time for lunch break. I was restless and so was my wolf, Aiden. We both wanted to see Kathrina as soon as possible. Immediately the bell for the lunch break was tolled, I jerked up from my seat and glanced at Rylan who darted his gaze to me. He was seated at the right edge of the classroom and while thinking about my mate, I had barely noticed him when I walked into the class this morning. Rylan gave me a questioning gaze for my action and I simply ignored him and walked out of the classroom. What I really want to do now is talk to my mate. And that's the right thing,boy, Aiden said in my mind, concurringly. "Hayden!" Rylan hollered, stopping me from taking a turn down the hallway to head to the staircase

Kathrina POV Honestly,I couldn't digest what Hayden told me. Till the end of school, I was putting on a frown which made every teacher who walked in to cast a strange stare at me. I know if Lita was around she probably would have teased me for my expression and forced me to lighten my mood. Finally, they rang the bell for school closure and i let out a sigh of relief and head out of the classroom after Mr Tong, the English teacher left, ignoring the murmurs of my other classmates who I felt were probably talking about how I stood up for the girl and confronted that dimwit Rylan. Arrgh, just hearing someone mutter his name made me feel sick. I hung my school bag as I made my way to the locker room. Getting there, I walked straight to my locker and unlocked it with my key. As I was closing the locker, I almost jumped, placing a hand on my chest when I saw a girl staring at me. She had curly purple hair, a nose ring which made her look like a badass and dark eye makeup which actually

Writer's POV Some days later, the Salvador family was having lunch at the dining room with Rylan seated next to his girlfriend, Kathrina and Caroline and Zita. 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 just wish Zita gets to spend more time with us.On a sunny morning, Rylan and I followed Mrs Fox's car behind then stopped at the town's entrance gate. She was leaving Laketown for good. I had no idea that she stayed back for two months after she got to know who I really was and about the demise of her daughter Lexie. I had got a call from her yesterday which made me so happy and I had told Rylan to follow me so we helped her pack her things and see her off at the entrance gate.When Rylan pulled over by the road behind her car, we got out and walked up to her leaning on her car."You know, I am happy I stayed for sometime. I was able to experience inner peace and happiness more than I had expected. Kathrina, I'm happy I got to know you and you made me be

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

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

Kathrina POVSome days later, I returned home from school and while trying to make something to have for lunch, my mom got a call and I watched her go far away and answered the call. 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.
