KADENHearing Avery’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts about Storm. Turning around, I gave her the signature smile, or rather a lame mild stretching of my lips, an action which was definitely in contrast with the freeness I experienced around Storm. I guess it was one of the reasons why I needed Storm, to feel more alive and not be stiff like a robot who has taken upon himself to take care of the clan by any means necessary.“Hi Kaden, how are you doing?” Avery asked, stepping closer to me, trying to kiss me on the lips but I turned away at the last second, and the kiss landed on my cheek. I saw the flash of anger that crossed her face and disappeared the next second. “Is there anything wrong?” she asked, and I wanted to tell her yes. I wanted to tell her to scoot away and that I had found my mate at last. I wanted to tell her about Storm, and I wanted to tell that I wasn't going to continue this thing between us but all I did say was that ‘I am fine.’ for the time wasn’t right
STORMI gasped, as my buttocks landed on the floor out of shock, but more of a slight stepping on the can of drink which had laid idle on the floor. My telescope also fell, as if mourning my sad state with me. Very faithful, unlike some handsome Greek , or was it an Irish god, that had just managed to hurt me when we hadn't even started anything. That’s great! It was good that I had found out now though. Yes, it was good that I had found out what a liar he was before having anything to do with him. This way I wouldn’t be tempted in the list to grab and kiss him again if he ever comes close to me. I noted, nodding my head.Actually, Miranda can have him. I didn’t care about that anymore. I mused, sniffing angrily when I felt a lone tear drop from my cheek. God, I am so pathetic.I hadn’t cried over the news of my father’s death immediately, but here I am, whining over someone that wasn’t even my boyfriend yet! Clucking my tongue decisively, I stood up from the floor, refusing to w
STORMMy whole body was burning up. It was like I had been set on fire. I needed water. “Water..” I managed to sputter. My mouth seemed so heavy, or was it my tongue?Immediately, I felt the tip of a cup on my lips. “Drink, Storm. Drink, girlfriend. You will be okay.” the voice said. Lucy was here then. I thought, accepting the water even as she helped to tilt my head further so that I could drink. “What happened?” I asked her, my eyes still shut, relieved I was in my safe hands. “We are not sure yet. I had come to see you in the evening as we had planned, but instead I had heard you muttering gibberish and shouting. Justin had to convince Jess to give us the spare key to your door.” she answered, taking away the cup when she saw that I was satisfied.But even though the water soothed my hot tongue, it didn’t do well for my body but I had remembered it all. The drugs and the shoutings. I had remembered Kaden kissing another woman. Dwelling on it caused a sharp pain to flash throug
I attempted a smile, hearing the relief in Lucy’s voice. I also heard the scurry of Justin’s feet as he came to my side, touching my forehead.“I am fine guys.” I said, proving it by opening my eyes. Earlier, when they had been debating over the state of my health, I had tried opening my eyes, checking to see if there would be any needles pinching the top of my eyes and brain. But there had been nothing. The last of the symptoms, apart from the weakness and pain in my joints, was over. Now I could bask in the euphoria of seeing my friends so happy that I had overcome again. Lucy hugged me first, but Justin pushed her away gently. “What are you doing? Have you forgotten that the doctor had said that she needed maximum care, and here you are resting your heavy weight on her.” he reprimanded, and I snickered, much to Lucy’s demerit. She pouted her lips as he stared between the both of us. “But I didn't put my entire weight on her. It was just a surface hug.” she whined, folding her ha
STORMIt was the same dream again. I was running from something I couldn’t see. But the fear that assailed my body was as if the enemy in question, something far worse than death was chasing me. The clouds were pursuing me too, or rather the darkness had overtaken the clouds and had caused them to chase after me. But how could I outrun them? Just when the dark heavy clouds were about to engulf me, I screamed and woke up. I was perspiring all over, breathing deeply in and out. At least I hadn’t seen the ugly monster or the shape-shifting woman always donned in snakes and scorpions who kept chanting stuff about revenge and retribution and cursing my mother. I sniffed, feeling the wetness of my bed sheet. The dream must have been going on for quite a long time. I thought, taking in slowly, a deep breath to calm my frantic self down. I took another slowly, allowing my eyes to adjust to the darkness in the room. It was just a mere dream. I kept muttering to myself, my heart beat plumme
STORMLucy and Justin were bickering with themselves as usual in my room the next day, something about the best singer for the week. I couldn’t care less. The thoughts of Kaden had never left my mind. What was the meaning of this? I asked myself, wondering how I had fallen this deep without even knowing. For god's sake we had just met two days ago, well technically two years ago, but that didn’t matter because I was with Curtis then, and Kaden had just been a handsome stranger. What was so different about him? I thought, shaking my head the next second. What was so different? Well, he was hot for one! The hottest I have ever seen. That’s different. But I felt that there was much more. I couldn’t just be hooked onto a guy because of hotness. I was not superficial like Miranda.“Hey Storm, what are you thinking about?” That was Justin asking. Nice of him to have taken a break from the bicker and notice me. I mused, looking at both of them. The duo should start dating already. I don’t
KADENSince I had heard that loud clash by Storm’s window, since I had walked Avery out of my room the previous night, citing a headache immediately after, since I had gone over to see Storm, and she had walked me out, forbidding me to see her again, I was tethering on a tiny thread between sanity and madness. Was this how it was? I thought, donning another cup of alcohol. How would I feel then if my lycan was available? Well, even if I wasn’t sure of the possessiveness of my wolf since I hadn’t really had a real woman when it had been around, one thing I was sure of was that I wouldn't have left her room that night, after she had screamed right after she had woken up, whether she had wanted me to stay in or not. My lycan wouldn’t have allowed it. Lycans, as they are very powerful, are very possessive. And since I descended from a royal bloodline, it made things much worse. My friends have been trying to reach me, especially Casper, but I had shut them out, knowing that the advice t
KADEN“Aren’t you going to say something?” Casper asked, and I shrugged. What did they want me to say? That I would leave Storm and not see her again, or that I would snap out of my stupid haze of futile longing for a human? Well, I won’t! And so, there was no reason for saying that because my word was my bond, and they knew that. Well that was shit! I had broken my words to Storm. She didn't trust me again. And why would she? I thought, my hand grabbing for my cup, forgetting that I had thrown it at Liam earlier.“I think you should stop drinking…” that was Lent. But what does he mean by that? “I know that alcohol doesn’t affect us, but you have taken a lot. Now that we are not sure of the state of your wolf, you should take a break from these.” he said, pointing at the bottles in front of me that I had donned since we had come inside the bar.I furrowed my eyebrows, and stared at my three friends, wishing I had come alone, instead of inviting them over. Then, I would have had the f
