Chapter 7

*****Elvira's POV*****

Daphne just stared at my face after I said those words to her. My tears couldn't stop falling amd I just couldn't figure out why.

Yes I really didn't want men in my life, I don't need mates. But the look the Twins gave me and how they just ignored me as they both made their way to the opposite directions, hurt me more than anything bad that had ever happened to me.

They gave me a look as if I was some worthless piece of trash they happened to be unfortunately matched with.

Though I wouldn't reject them because ofthat look they gave me, but i still wouldn't accept them.

But did they have to look at me that way?

Did they have to act like I was some worthless item?

I felt hurt for some reason.

The twins didn't even look like they were ready to accept me. They looked like they hated the mere sight of me standing there as their fated mate.

Dahlia finally spoke up after a while of silence, "El, don't be mad, maybe they just weren't expecting to see you yet" she tried to sooth me, but I knew she was lying.

The twins didn't want us and I didn't want them either.

Since they feel we were some worthless things before them, then I would also see them the same way.

I hated them for what happened earlier and I would make sure they saw the hatred i also had for them.

"El, are you sure of what you're saying? The twins? The hot guys? They're your mates?" Daphne asked again in a low voice, but I could clearly hear her.

I nodded in response.

She took two steps away from me and looked up at the sky.

Then she screamed in what seemed like excitement.

"Yes! Yes!!" She screamed again and I had the urge to shut her up before she wakes up my parents and neighbors.

"Why are you screaming?" I asked quietly, staring at her like she had grown two heads.

"Because this is what I always asked the moon goddess for! I've been praying and asking her to just connect you to the twins in a way, maybe as friends, since I can't do anything with them," she reasoned and I just gaped at her.

How could she be so shameless?

"Does Jaxon know this side of Daphne?" Dahlia asked irritatedly and I shook my head.

"No wonder." she snorted.

"Baby, I'm happy for you! Why didn't you tell me earlier and I was worried sick about you!"

I sighed tiredly and leaned on the car.

"Daphne, the twins don't want me, and I don't want them either" I said to her and she froze from her happy dance.

"What are your even talking about, huh? How did you know they don't want you?" She asked and I looked directly into her eyes as the moon light fell over the surrounding.

"Because of the look they both gave me." I told her and she just gave me a skeptical look.

"What look did they give you?" She asked me.

"The look that says I disgust them" I reply.

Daphne shook her head in bewilderment.

"How could you be so sure it's a look of disgust when it could clearly be a look of longing?!" She yelled and this time, I moved to cover her sinful mouth from spitting out anymore nonsense.

"I know what I saw and you don't have to tell me that," I said through gritted teeth close to her ear.

She tried to say something, but her voice is muffled because of my hand that was over her mouth.

She tapped my hand and I reluctantly let go of her.

"Damn El! Your grip is super strong! Where's the strength coming from?" She asked me and this time, I managed to force a laugh.

After she took in deep breaths, she turned to look at me, then huffed.

"Fine, we'll talk about this tomorrow El. For now, go in and take a rest" Daphne said to me and I nodded thankfully.

The look the twins gave me flashed in my mind again and i clenched my fist.

Those brats!

After I waved Daphne off, I walked into the house quietly.

By now my mum must be asleep, I had no idea if my dad retuned home tonight.

After I successfully entered my room, I leaned on the closed door and sighed.

"Tough day" Dahlia commented and I hummed in response.

"Indeed" I said.

After waiting for a minute or two, I stepped into the bathroom and stripped down immediately.

After a quick refreshing bath, I stepped out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe and took up the blow dryer to dry my hair.

Despite trying really hard to focus on just doing my usual night routine and going to bed, I still couldn't get rid of the looks on the twins' faces as our eyes met and their scents wafted into my nostrils.

"They smelled divine," Dahlia said suddenly, but I gave no response.

Indeed, their scents were undeniably intoxicating.

But even if I wanted mates, it wouldn't be arrogant brats who give people disgusting looks.

"Elvira you have to calm down, maybe you misunderstood them,"

I scoffed at Dahlia's words, misunderstood them?

"Ok let's say I misunderstood them, why in the world will they not approach me as their mates and instead, walked off like I was some dirt they didn't want to get close to?" I asked Dahlia sarcastically as I felt my senses snap, the anger rising once more.

After I said that, I dropped the blow dryer and made my way towards the bed.

"I wish I never see them again, I don't care about the bond," I snorted and rested into the soft mattress.

"They're your second chances, of course the bond would grow even more each time you try to deny it. Or did you forget how it went with Archie?"

She asked knowingly and I growled in response.

How could I forget the first day I met Archie?

"Now sleep and tomorrow you'll feel better" Dahlia ordered and my eye lids grew heavy instantly as if following her command.

With that, I fell into a deep sleep.
