Kathrina POV"We look fabulous, mehn!" Lita cried the moment we finished making a pigtail.Lira had come over to my house the next day so we both strutted into school with similar pigtails. "Come here." She pulled me up from my bed to the mirror. "Don't we look a bit more like twin sisters now?""Not quite sure, but the pigtail suits you better," I said."Oh, my. Thank you.""Let's leave now. We've been here for over an hour trying to get matching pigtails. Isn't that silly?""Heck. No way. The time we spent on our hair paid. We look super cute with the pigtail," she cooed. The door opened and my mom walked in with a tray which had two cups of tea and a plate of biscuits on it."So, I guess you girls were making matching pigtails. I decided to bring up dinner since you girls will be staying back today…"" Staying back? No way, mom. We're going to school," I said, grabbing my school bag on the dressing stool."Well, Morley left with Monna already…""Oh no! I was thinking I did squeeze
Kathrina POV"Don't push me to the edge," Hayden warned, clenching his fist as he glared at Rylan.I opened my mouth to talk but couldn't get the right words to say that would ease the situation at hand."Um, Hayden. Just fix your chair here, please," Lita said at the right time before Hayden could smash Ryan's head. She adjusted her seat and gestured at the space enough for him to place his seat.He walked over and placed the chair, he hissed before sitting down."So, that's settled," Lita said and sighed."Can you stop being grumpy, Hayden? And, Rylan, just stop being annoying.""I'm a good boy," Rylan said and grabbing my carton of milkshake he took a sip, staring directly at Hayden."Woa, now I get why girls love strawberry milkshakes." He giggled and placed the carton of milkshake in front of me."So, now it seems the table is complete," Lita said and pulled her seat forward. "So, Hayden's mate, Kathrina," she called me almost in a whisper, making me narrow my eyes."Why call me
Zoey POVMy heart almost bulged out as I walked out from the woods, taking off my hoodie. I walked over to my locket laying on the ground and picked it.I had secretly trailed Hayden down to his house a week ago and coming here this morning to catch a glimpse of him as I have been doing as a morning routine for days now, a stupid bitch showed up.Now I've seen the girl who my love's heart is entwined to. Kathrina, I finally had a clear view of her today.I've been stalking Hayden ever since that night I met him and I know he has got no idea of that. I never knew he had my locket.Since the day I left that guesthouse, I've been looking worriedly for my locket. I noticed it wasn't on my neck while I was having a nice shower that night and went back to the guest house but didn't find it in the room.When I hid behind a shrub in the woods and saw Hayden toss my locket like it was trash, I held back myself from darting over to Kathrina, grabbing her and tossing her like a worthless piece o
Kathrina POV I got down from my father's truck when he halted at the school parking lot and waved at him, saying 'goodbye, good luck, dad' till his truck was out of sight. I had spun, taking out my phone to check if Hayden had sent me a message this morning. My eyes were fixed on my phone screen and I didn't realize when I stumbled and went off balance. At the right second, someone grabbed my wrist, saving me from landing on the cemented ground with my butt. Gosh, that would have hurt. "You really are a problem walking zone," I heard a familiar voice growl. Recognizing whose voice it was, I lifted up my gaze to that of Rylan and flinched. "Don't act rude now, girl, I saved you from falling," he said and smirked. "I've really got the knack for saving ugly cats a lot, you know. It's quite unfortunate for me. "Screw you. And what the heck are you doing here? We are supposed to be having English for the first period today." "So?" "English. It's a general course, forgotten?" "I care
Kathrina POVI rushed Into the hallway that led to the boy's locker room. I guess that's the place Hayden must be to grab some books from his locker.I stopped halfway in the hallway when I caught sight of Hayden walking out from the locker room. He had nothing with him."Hayden," I called with a soft tone. He darted his eyes to me, standing by the locker room.He gave me a sour look. I took a step forward and sighed when he quickly started walking.I increased my pace the moment he took a right turn and when I saw him walking down the staircase that led to the male restroom, I stopped.He went into the restroom after glancing above his shoulder at me. I jogged down the stairs and without thinking it through for a second, I pushed open the door of the male's restroom and walked in."Geez," I heard some guys by my right, who were standing before the urinals, peeing, exclaimed."Holy fuck, this isn't the female restroom," I heard one groaned.I shifted my gaze to Hayden who stepped out
Hayden POV I drove straight to the packhouse fuming. I can't simply just overlook the annoying truth that my mate, Kathrina kisses that bastard, Rylan. Left alone for me, if I really had my way and Kathrina hadn't stepped in between to save that unlucky jerk, Rylan, I would have pulled out his tongue and fed it to the dogs. One day, I'm certain I will make Rylan pay for all the troubles he has caused me. And that day, not even Kathrina would be able to stop me. "They kissed?!" Skye asked in astonishment as he walked behind me to my room. I took off my coat and tossed it to my bed. "I knew why he did it." "Why?" "What else but to goad me? He's getting closer to my mate each passing day and she can't seem to stay away from him." "It's natural. Kathrina is also fated to Rylan, forgotten?" "I Know! But I'm going to do everything to break that bond. I will make her reject Rylan soon. I'm working on that." I heard a knock on my door and my mom walked in. "Skye, please give us a m
Kathrina POV I stared at the door after Hayden walked into the house and slammed the door closed. I've never seen him this angry. I couldn't understand why he is always upset. Rylan is my friend and what's the big deal there if I call him and wish him a happy birthday? I really felt disturbed after Lita called and informed me that today was Rylan's birthday. I recalled the day Rylan told me his birthday was around the corner which was some weeks back and jokingly asked me to get him a new bike as a birthday present. Hayden's birthday made me forget completely about Rylan's birthday. I never once thought that Rylan's birthday was the next day after Hayden's. I walked into the house and made a bowl of grits for myself. While eating in the kitchen, Hayden walked in. He was changed into new clothes and seemed composed. "It's quite hot today. I had a cold shower," he said, staring at me. I nodded and dropped my spoon. "You're going to eat that up?" He asked me as I grabbed a bottle
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."I rolled my e
