Rylan POV I had decided to return to Grace Hood High to give Hayden a shocking surprise because I know he probably would have thought that I was never going to come back for him let alone return to school. I jumped out from my Jeep and walked into the building with a smile on my face, so impatient to see Hayden. "Look, Rylan is back!" A girl yelled the moment I walked into the foyer and other girls bursting out from the hallway that led to the cafeteria and jogging down the stairs ran down to the foyer. I know most people would be shocked to see me. I thought about going to the head office where I could possibly find Mrs Pierce, the vice principal who I am sure would gladly welcome me with kisses for she was so fond of me but taking a step forward, I stopped as I felt my wolf stir-up, trying to come out. "What's gotten into you, Red?" I asked in a low tone as I turned, backing the students who were staring at me but he didn't reply. I could feel he was bothered. Maybe he wasn
Kathrina POVI walked down to my class. Mr Tom was already in mathematics class. He darted his gaze from my classmates to me and I glanced at the topic for today's class written on the board. "You know I don't like someone walking in after I've written my topic, Kathrina," he said and I nodded, looking down to the floor."I'm sorry sir," I apologized like an innocent lamb. I lifted my gaze to meet his unlikely stare."Go take your seat," he said and I mouthed a 'thank you' before walking to the middle of the class and taking my seat. I glanced at Lita and she shook her head."You've met Rylan?" Lita asked me during lunch break while we were eating and I nodded. I looked around and she cleared her throat, making me return my gaze to her."Hayden left already," she told me and I sighed. He sometimes leaves school and sneaks in or doesn't even return. Sometimes I wondered if he had a secret business he was taking care of or maybe he was a mafia or a leader of an organization who deals i
Hayden POV The usual morning training of my pack was almost rounding up. Despite returning home after leaving school before the actual time to attend meetings which I had postponed and returning quite late, I still had to wake up by 6am to supervise the training for this morning as always. "You had lots of missed calls from Kathrina yesterday," Skye whispered to me from behind while I was guiding Lily, a daughter of one of my gammas,on how to attack. I held him by the elbow and pulled him along to the edge of the training ground where we could talk. "Really?" He nodded and gave me my phone. Fuck! 50 missed calls! She even called before dawn. I bet she's worried. I did not have the chance to return her calls last night because I had given my phone to Skye so it won't be a distraction for me. "Maybe I should return her calls now…" "Oh yes! That will be great," Rayana's voice cut in and Skye and I darted our gaze to her as she approached. "You're just waking up?" I asked as I gl
Hayden POV Arriving at the school, I was over two hours late, mostly because I had to see the alpha queen and talk about expanding my pack territory, so I wasn't able to see Kathrina before her first class took place and got a hug. All through the morning classes till it was time for lunch break. I was restless and so was my wolf, Aiden. We both wanted to see Kathrina as soon as possible. Immediately the bell for the lunch break was tolled, I jerked up from my seat and glanced at Rylan who darted his gaze to me. He was seated at the right edge of the classroom and while thinking about my mate, I had barely noticed him when I walked into the class this morning. Rylan gave me a questioning gaze for my action and I simply ignored him and walked out of the classroom. What I really want to do now is talk to my mate. And that's the right thing,boy, Aiden said in my mind, concurringly. "Hayden!" Rylan hollered, stopping me from taking a turn down the hallway to head to the staircase
Kathrina POV Honestly,I couldn't digest what Hayden told me. Till the end of school, I was putting on a frown which made every teacher who walked in to cast a strange stare at me. I know if Lita was around she probably would have teased me for my expression and forced me to lighten my mood. Finally, they rang the bell for school closure and i let out a sigh of relief and head out of the classroom after Mr Tong, the English teacher left, ignoring the murmurs of my other classmates who I felt were probably talking about how I stood up for the girl and confronted that dimwit Rylan. Arrgh, just hearing someone mutter his name made me feel sick. I hung my school bag as I made my way to the locker room. Getting there, I walked straight to my locker and unlocked it with my key. As I was closing the locker, I almost jumped, placing a hand on my chest when I saw a girl staring at me. She had curly purple hair, a nose ring which made her look like a badass and dark eye makeup which actually
Kathrina POV"Well, I'll just excuse you guys," Lita's mom broke the awkward silence and left."So how're you feeling now? Better?""Yes. I am," Lita answered with a smile. "So…um, why did you introduced Hayden to my mom as just your friend?" I stared at her quietly and she darted her eyes to Hayden."Did you both broke up now?"Hayden and I glanced at each but didn't say a word."I don't like this silence. Wait. Did you guys had a squabble.""More of a misunderstanding," Hayden said and i could feel he was staring at him."Hm. Well, I was wondering all this while when you love birds are going to have your first lovers quarrel and It turns up today in my absence." Hayden and I darted our eyes to her and she held up her arms."I didn't mean I wanted you guys to have," she paused and sighed. "Okay, fine. My bad.""It wouldn't have happened if Rylan never showed up," Hayden muttered to our hearing and I huffed, rolling my eyes."Not really. You are just trying to…" Hayden's phone rang, s
Rylan POVRed growled inside me hearing Hayden claim Kathrina as his. I clenched my first, trying so hard within me not to throw a punch at Hayden. She's also yours, Red said in my mind.Yes, she is also my mate and I really want to grab her this instance and say it loudly to Hayden,but I can't. My revenge is my top priority. And I'm going to see to that before claiming my mate. I watched as Kathrina headed into the building after Hayden whispered something to her before darting his gaze to me." 'Don't you dare touch her…she's mine' " I mimicked with a husky voice, teasingly and I laughed."I bet you sensed I was kind of troubling your mate so you bumped out, right?" He was quietly staring at me."Oh, yeah. I know. Fret not buddy." I patted his shoulder and leaned forward, I whispered." I won't bite her." I smirked and walked past him."Rylan," Hayden called out to me, stopping me. I whirled to meet his grim expression and I chuckled, sliding my hands into my trouser's pockets as h
Hayden POV I've been so upset the past few days and I've been thinking about Rylan, sometimes getting lost in my thoughts. I couldn't concentrate sometimes in meetings and Skye would have to nudge me to jolt me of my thoughts and inform me on what I had missed through mindlink. After talking to one of my gammas and scolding him for raising his hand at his omega mate on some occasions, I returned back to my office I called Kathrina and set a date we both could chill out. Dropping my phone on the table, Skye walked in with a binder "You've got a meeting in an hour," he said and I nodded "You seem a bit disturbed and annoyed these past few days," Skye, who obviously must have been watching me lately, said as he went through my schedules "I'm…" "Don't say you're fine. It doesn't seem like it." He dropped the binder on my side of the table. "You had a heated argument with your mate?" "No. It's Rylan. He's been in my head these past few days." "Really? Why?" Skye asked, taking one
