Chapter 25CARLIN.I've not expected a twist of this kind to take place, although I knew a day like this would come but I never actually felt it was so close.I think hard and fast as to what to say, aloha gray had made the decision to leave which means the whole formalities and preparation had been made.I need to speak with Clarissa as soon as I can, but for now I need to buy some more time although I do not know how to go on about that right now."I don't know what you are acting all fuzzy and what's the look on your face? When I had asked you to welcome them into the pack you had lots to say just to avoid meeting them and now their leaving you look sour" father says, his words lingering on my mind.He's right, I had not expected huge twists like this, I had no idea Claire would be my mate or Amaya who I had dreamt about for long and now I'm caught in a tight spot."That will be all for now you are excused" the words flowing through his lips with a strange ease and calmness, I wal
Chapter 26CLAIRE.the hand shook at me causing me to stand stiff wondering who it could be, but then again the scent seems too familiar, the same as that conniving bitch down.I turn instantly to find Delilah staring at me with tears in her eyes, her face swollen and having dark circles beneath them.Her cheeks are red flags as well as her nose which seemed to be running, it's easy to note that she had been crying all through."What's wrong?" I ask out of impulse , although I'm worried about her I still make a mental note to stay away from her,after all there is more to her than everyone seems to see.I've known her to be mischievous and somehow wicked but seeing her play the role of the major villain in my past life makes my skin crawl on sight of her.Although I try as much as possible to remind myself constantly of the fact that it was our previous life and not the current one.We could avoid any harm coming our way if we all decide to work things out and directly, not pushing any
Chapter 27CLARISSA."Why so soon?" I ask dad, he had no reason in particular apart from the fact that he had finished the work process Andis done with the alliance, yet still I find it somehow suspicious.He was the one who had brought up the idea of me coming along with him before I made a decision to find my mate.Although I can't remain in Carlin's paco forevermore and I can't keep the fact that we are mated hidden for long as well I just can't turn blind eyes to my father's words neither can I rant ok about the whole o anyone yet until it's all sorted out."When are we to leave?" I ask father unsure of what to do, perhaps I could buy us some more time but for now I need to be out of his sight in order to get straight thinking and clear head."Immediately after breakfast, that should be to say goodbye to anyone you know in the pack" I listen to him but I can't lash out, the most I can do is keep in my rage."Okay father, have a nice night" I bid him farewell before walking out o
Chapter 28CLARISSA.seeing the look on his face marks it as the truth, he isn't speaking back or defending himself all he does is stare at threshold and I.Like a fool I had believed everything he said and he had Led me on, I do not know if it's a hobby or a recent attitude of his.Here he is in the woods dark at night with Delilah even when he knows how much of a threat she is to us.Nothing matters to him, each time I get played by him, I feel hurt and I'm scared pretty bad of him.I've never for once given him a reason to doubt me but here I am each time forgiving him and keeping a close mind to anything which he has to say.I feel like a food but what choice do I have other than to act calm and cool, it would be of no use to embarrass myself before him and his mistress.It's way too firm to handle but I swallow hard,he isn't trying to stop me or confront me which simply means he has no intentions of seeking forgiveness or getting things right with me.I nod slowly, my eyes dart
Chapter 29THRESHOLD.everything seems to be going accordingly, so smooth and easy like I had all it would.Although I had planned a few things and expected Raya, the lady I had set up with Carlin to be there.I had planned the whole coup all along,althy I might have exaggerated a bit while I explained the part to Clarissa. I'm human. I could not help but spice the truth up a tad bit.She fell for it in a swoop which meant she had been having simple and little doubts about Carlin, how am I to blame her? Who would not?That Bastard loves playing the too good to be true role which eyebrows for suspicions.I had expected her to throw tantrums and seek explanations, I took the risk of lying to her hoping it would never be found out.The only thing which remained a deep dark past of Carlin's is that he had always been every woman's eye.They wanted him, be it human, be it wolf, be it the vampires as well,it made him go haywire at some point and he really did go wild and all out with his
Chapter 30DELILAH.Just like the moon goddess was on my side, I had clashed into raya, she looked restless and confused, scared as well I could note that.Of course I seemed to be confused about the whole thing, wondering why she's all so worked up so I had approached her,I didn't want to leave her all to herself, wanting to know why she looked so dreadful, she was shy at first and reluctant to speak.She insisted she was fine but stressed from having to work for a while, raya was just like me, a lady who would not take no for an answer,String, fearless and smart, but she had a weakness, a weakness I would never have. One that would ruin her any minute it wanted to.She was in love with threshold.Growing up which I can barely say as all my life I've known threshold to be some sort of prick.He likes fooling around with feeble minded wolves, just as well I had known raya and I have to say she ought to be mated to Greg as they would both make a fine couple.Raya had slaved away all
Chapter 31CARLIN"Delilah, what am I to do?" I asks as I approaches her, holding firm to her shoulders and staring directly into her orbs causing her to swallow hardShe smiles a little,pulls me towards herself and engulfs me in a hug, she oats me carefully on my head, burying her hands deep into my hair.Little did I know I'll end up feeling the discomfort I tried to put her out of a few minutes ago.Her hug feels so nice and warm, she is reciprocating all I had done earlier.I didn't know just a little thing could help me reach this milestone.I knew something like this could happen but I had no idea it would be so soon, finally the minute of truth had come.I've always dreaded the day if I have to tell her all about my past, my love life in the past, the mistakes I had made and what I fear not to do again.But I've always thought Clarissa is much of a person who judges, how am I to explain to her that I had let go of my past love all because my father didn't want me holding on to
Chapter 32CARLIN.ITs funny how the whole night fizzled out so quickly that it's morning already.I'm the type that hardly cries but still I felt my heart ache all through the night till I was finally asleep.Sleep has such a magical touch, it took away all my worries and my anxiety.Little did I know it will be morning so soon, here I am facing my fears once again.The pain seeping in more than before, I clutch at my shirt, straightening the edges as I take one last glance and long look at myself in the mirror.This sit hw last day I'll be seeing Clarissa, this is the last day I'll get to speak with her casually.I must not lie to her or make any unnecessary moves, actions or speeches.She had left when I was at my lowest point, it's my loss and she ought to understand that but she left without giving me a chance to explain myself.She did say something about being in love with Mr and trusting me no matter what, age promised we will pull through together.One single clash, a single
Chapter 37CARLIN'S POV.THIS IS ANOTHER side to Clarissa that I never knew existed, her countenance, stance, speech and tired all changes at once, I know I had spoken way too far had hurt her with my words but the manner at which she switched from calm and caring to nonchalant and sarcastic freaks me out totally.For some reason I feel like I underestimated Her, like I knew nothing about her…Her father agrees that they leave and so does my father, I could see threshold hold her by the arm. As much as I'd love to keep up my straight malice with her and keep acting the perfect gentleman she isn't helping matters, I see no reason as to why she keeps doing this silly thing.Is she trying to make me jealous by using my very own brother against me? But as much as I think about it she isn't the type to play silly games,if it were Delilah then I would gladly be reassured that she is merely trying to get back at me.Perhaps both are really forming true bondz friends Maybe. I decide to plac
Chapter 36CLARISSA.I'VE HAD just enough of their annoying comments and attitude, first he strolls into the room like he owns everything, although he does but not yet his father is still alive and he's next in line to be alpha so he has to wait, unless he plans to OVerthrow his father and at this point nothing about him can make me fazed.The fact that Delilah had been acting too innocent makes me feel uncomfortable, nobody asked her for her nice little silly ass speech but she just had to be the angel and me the demon.I know she is up to something but for now I can't place a finger on it and I can't really push further without clear evidence.Then Carlin just had to piss me off the most, indirectly he had just called me an attention whore to everyone's faces, making me like I'm a pushy bitch or something of some sorts.My love words shattera him and it makes me feel delighted, the look on his face speaks millions and I have to say I really am proud of myself.He thought I would sta
Chapter 35CARLINI can't believe I had just said that to her face, I was immediately hit by a pang of guilt, I had just tripped in a manner that would ruin me completely."Is that what you really think I do? I'm very happy that you finally voice out what had long stayed in your mind" she responds, "threshold isn't g and neither is Delilah.The eerie silence causes a rift between us all, making the situation look even more awkward than it naturally is."Why is this table just to silent?" Dad asks as h walks in side by side with clarisssa's father accompanied BY Greg who gives me a disdainful look.I know I've not been the best friend these past few days, I mean before all of this started it was just Greg and I, we met each day, spiked frequently, went for a run in the woods together but now it's all strange.I've gotten accustomed to Clarissa in such a small Time and it's telling on me, I had no time for him,I was not meeting up with him, I had not been seeing him or speaking with hi
Chapter 34CLARISSA.I am more than stunned,in short speechless and dazed to see Carlin walk side by side with Delilah.Had he been brainwashed or did he forget about the journey? Our past! What we went through and about to go down in this present life.How could he do all of this to me, of course I intended on giving him the silent treatment hoping he would plead with her and seek her forgiveness today.I barely slept all night, I had woken with dark circles and had no choice except to apply makeup on her skin.I just could not apply make up and dress like a tramp, I had to make sure the whole thing matched perfectly well which is why I was dressed to the top notchOf course I was still tired and yawned every now and then but I can't stay in a lazy position because of selling myself out. I want him to see me all dressed up and looking elegant.Now he's finally at the table I can't help but feel stupid,I had foolishly believed he would apologize.Instead beret he is looking all grea
Chapter 33DELILAH.so far so good, things had been looking really well, hearing Carlin speak made my skin crawl with excitement, I've never been the type to think threshold had anything sorta that could be called brains but seeing this little plan of his work so fine could make me applaud him.Although I know we'll ignore everything because she saw me there,if it had been raya she might not have bothered herself so much and this made me feel so great and better.To know that she's insecure around me and always on her toes, to know how scared she is that I might snatch her mate away from her right under her nose.And why not? Why can't I? Why should I not? I see no reason why they keep bugging me, saying silly ass stuff like mates are soul mates, they deserve to be together and they are like the earth pulling gravity Instead of just being straight to the point.What silly ass earth pulling gravity?I've seen people survive without mates, they call it some shitty earth pulling gravit
