Hayden POV Rayana had woken me up from my nap this evening to talk gibberish and irk me because I spoke to mom on giving a restriction order so she doesn't get to leave the pack easily as she usually does. Hearing her mention Kathrina's name when she was about to step out from my house the very minute she opened the door, I rushed next to her to really see Kathrina. She stared at me with an expression I couldn't make out. I just hoped in my mind that she actually didn't hear a thing but her quietness said otherwise. "Hey, you're here?" I asked her and motioned to Rayana to leave. As Rayana left, I stepped out, closing the door behind. "Kathrina…what did you hear?" I asked her curiously. "I heard…everything. Everything," she said calmly. "Kathrina, I'm sorry," I said and attempted to touch her. "Don't touch me, RYLAN!" She bawled. "Kathrina." "You kept such a big thing a secret from me? For months?!" "I never intended to. Please hear me out. I'm sorry. I thought…it would be
Kathrina POVI stared at the door of Rylan's house not knowing what to do next. I had thought of going over to lita's place but I ended up coming here.I just didn't want to go home looking all pathetic. I was about to knock when the door opened. Mrs Miranda showed up."Hey, dear," she said, smiling as usual. I tried to force a smile but failed and sniffed instead."Are you okay?" She asked me as a drop of tears flowed down my face. I quickly wiped it away with my sleeves and nodded."But…""Who's there mom?" I heard Rylan asked from inside before he showed up behind his mother at the door."Kathrina, you're here?" He asked me surprisingly. I felt so stupid because I couldn't utter a word but nodded like a dummy as I tried fighting back my tears."Um, maybe I will…just excuse you guys," Mrs Miranda said and went inside in hesitation, leaving the door open."You…want to come in?" Rylan asked and I shook my head. He squinted and closed the door behind.He gestured at the porch swing and
Hayden POV "Did you find her?" Skye asked me later through the mindlink while I was driving back to Kathrina's house. I had informed him earlier about the whole issue before driving round the town in search of Kathrina. "I didn't. I've searched almost everywhere in lake town. I couldn't find her." Sensing the tensity in my voice, he tried to ease me. "Calm down, Hayden. Just calm down…" "Calm down?! I'm looking crazingly for my MATE! I have no idea where she is. What if she's mistakenly entered the city? You know she won't survive for an hour if she has already crossed the neutral territory, don't you?!" "I do." "And you want me to calm down! You must be out of your mind, pal," I said, increasing my speed. "Should I come over and search for her with some of our wolves?" "No. Stay in the city. I will find my mate myself. Just help do me one thing." "Sure. What?" "Check the whole City plus the neutral territory to see if she's around there." "Copy, alpha," he said and cut hi
Zoey POV "You're not going out tonight, Zoey!" I heard Caroline yelling from the kitchen. My lips curled into a smile as I applied a red shade lipstick on my full heart shaped lips. I arose and whirled in front of the mirror, checking myself out. As always, I was looking hot to kill. In a black body hug nylon gown, ripped by my sides, exposing my seductive body with a pair of brown heels, I looked ready as ever. I had my hair curled to perfection earlier today and as it bounced fluffily when I shook my head, I giggled and grabbed my bag on my bed. "You're fucking kidding me if you're going out tonight," Caroline said when I walked into the living room. "Well, I'm not," I said, smiling to piss her off. "Zzzoooeeey!" She groaned as she walked up to me. "Are you crazy?" "Hey, no. I'm just stepping into the nearby town to check out some super casanovas." "No. I'm not letting a mad vampire step into a town and take down most guys in a bar," she said and I flicked her a glare. "Oka
Kathrina POVI slowly opened my eyes later in the night after unknowingly drifting to sleep after I spoke to my dad on the phone.I took my phone by my side on the bed to check the time. It was saying five minutes past twelve and I glanced at the table clock on Rylan's cupboard by the bed which said the same thing.I crawled out of the bed feeling thirsty. I slowly opened the door not to cause a noise seeing everywhere was quiet and I guessed no one was awake.I walked gently into the kitchen by the hallway and flicked on the light. I glanced back at the dark living room before walking up to the refrigerator.I grabbed a bottle of water and took a glass. I filled it and took a sip of the water. Going over to one of the stools by the countertop, I sat down, backing the kitchen door.Now gulping down the water, I heard a slight noise then I froze as the hair in my skin erected.Sensing someone was around and probably standing a few inches away from me, I slowly arose. I glanced at the
Zoey's POV We both drank for over an hour but I was still sober. Hayden kept blabbering like a true drunkard which was actually entertaining. I looked around the club to see a few people around and some silly couples dragging their feets to the different staircase leading to their reserved rooms. "Don't worry about your mate. I am here for you," I told him after we had emptied a jar of beer. He glanced at me and nodded. "Ma'am," the waiter called, leaning forward. "Yes?" "Um, I don't know if you both are staying here but, we will be closing soon," he informed. I glanced at my wristwatch. It was past twelve thirty, midnight for a nice time. I beckoned to the waiter to come and he walked over to me. "Can I get a room? Any nice room available?" He nodded. "I will go get it ready…" "Just fill our empty jar first. Excuse me," I said, suddenly standing up. "Hey winsome, I will be back," I said to Hayden and pecked his cheek before leaving. I rushed back to the room where I had e
Kathrina's POV The rays of the sunlight passing through the light curtains made me wake up with a frown in the morning.Realizing I wasn't in my home, I quickly jerked up and grabbed my phone on the bed.I left the room and met Aunt Miranda setting the table, probably for breakfast."Good morning, Aunt," I greeted as she lifted up her head and saw me by the hallway."Dear, good morning," she said and walked up to me. "Hope you had a great night rest?""Yes. Thanks so much for letting me sleepover," I appreciated. She waved."C'mon, you're free to come over if you want to and pass the night here. I've got no problem with that.""Okay. I will be leaving now.""Oh. You're not going to wait a little bit and have breakfast with us?""Um, I would love to…""The food is going to be ready in a few minutes, you know," she said, trying to persuade me."Yeah. But, I actually wanted to have breakfast with my family.""O, fine. That's still fine. Just promise you would come over next time and hav
Rylan POVI yawned, stretching as I woke up. I walked to the bathroom to pee."Rylan,' I heard my mom calling from the room. "Are you in the bathroom, son?""Yes mom," I answered."Come out for breakfast." She said and left before I could ask if Kathrina had woken up.I walked to the dining room after brushing my teeth. It was already past nine."You woke up a bit late today," my mom said as I took my seat. I placed my phone by my plate on the table."Yes. You didn't have breakfast already?""Hm. I was waiting for you. You know I don't eat alone when you are around," she said as she dished some food to my plate.I stared back at the living room."Where's she?""Who?""Kathrina. Is the cat still asleep?""No. She left a while ago," my mom said and I sighed. "Were you hoping to have breakfast with her?""Me? I care less," I said and shrugged."What a petty liar," I heard my mom muttering and I chuckled."Now…she knows about who you really are.""Yes. I told you that already," I paused
