Daphne met up with Jared at his apartment again. She could hardly sleep through the night thinking about what happened between them. She blushed everytime she thought about him, it seems she is getting deep and deep into him. She wanted more of him as she saw his image in her head. She hugged him as soon as he opened the door, catching him unaware. He did not think she would be getting more romantic after how shy she was yesterday. "Oh, Daphne I'm glad you're here on time. I was...""Hi Jared." He was stopped by her hug. "It seems like you missed me more than I thought." He said teasingly closing the door. "Didn't you miss me?" She pouted looking up at him. He chuckled, "Is there a reason I won't miss an angel like you? Of course you know I did miss you a lot." She scoffed, "Am I really an angel?""You don't know? I mean I've always wanted to ask you this, if you're here, then who's in heaven now?" She laughed more, "Oh my God! Are you using pick up lines on me right now? I'm g
Jared ran his hands through his hair in frustration. He never thought he would need to explain himself to anyone let alone a human who is now his mate. The fact that he doesn't want to lose her overwhelms him a lot. In such a short period of time, he has gotten so used to her that he doesn't want to leave her. This could only be the work of the moon goddess."Daphne, it's not what you think. Tiana and I... We used to date but then we broke up when I found you." He started.She stopped him, "What? So what you are saying now is that I am the reason you left your beautiful Barbie? If you hadn't found me, then you would still probably be with her now right?""That's not it. We already made an agreement at the beginning. I told her what would happen if I was ever to find my mate. We used to be just friends until she decided to initiate dating. She already knows what would happen after I found my mate, I thought she understood." Jared explained, getting more frustrated.Daphne nodded, "I se
Kieran dropped Umbrie off at the airport to meet up with the teachers and the rest of the students going with her. He thought of secretly following them, but then decided against it after thinking about what might happen if Umbrie finds out. He doesn't want to get into another heated argument with her where she would want to break the mate bond again.He went back home and counted the hours waiting patiently for her call. He was worried about her and could not concentrate on anything. After a long wait, he finally saw his phone ringing. It wasn't a saved number but he guessed it to be her."Umbrie? Is that you Umbrie?" He asked desperately."Were you expecting a call from someone else? Don't tell me you decided to cheat on me right after I just left." Umbrie's voice came from the other side.He laughed in relief, "You scared me. I was so worried about you. Why didn't you call me earlier?""What? We just got here now. I have not called my parents, I decided to call you first...""Becau
Daphne took a cab to the grocery store as her Stepmom told her to get some things on her way. She was able to get them on time but she didn't take a cab since the store is not too far from her. She was walking almost close to her street when she got pulled out of nowhere.She could not scream as her mouth was covered and strong forces are holding her.She was dragged until she got thrown on the ground. She got scared, the only thing she thought about was if this is related to her boyfriend. What if there's someone who wants to take revenge on him like in the movies?Her eyes opened as she looked around. It's a dead end. She looked up to see the people who got her. They are two girls she doesn't know. She began to think back wondering what she did wrong."Who are you? What do you want from me?" She asked annoyed.The first one laughed, "Can you imagine? She's asking who we are Emma.""She's actually mad at us Alice." Emma also laughed."What do you girls want from me? Who are you?" Da
Daphne felt pain all over her body. Her bones felt like they can't be moved again. She completely felt like she was paralyzed. Opening her eyes to find herself still alive, she wondered how she managed to make it when she was on the verge of death before.She got scared seeing Jared beside her. She remembered Tiana's words vividly. She panicked that Tiana could appear from nowhere seeing them together. Though she loves him, she feels that letting him go would be the best option for her.She had been suffering her whole life with her father. The same thing is now happening again. Those girls would continue to beat her until she leaves Jared or she ends up dying."She did this to me because of you. I've been beaten up by my father my entire life. Now I have to go through the same because of you. Why is it always me?" She lamented crying.Jared tried so hard to hold back his tears. He wouldn't cry like this usually, but Daphne is just special to him. He feels something unique and differe
Jared stopped at Tiana's house. Then he called her to meet him outside. He only waited a few minutes before she burst out the door happily. She looked happy that Jared came to see her. She did not think about why he must have come, she thought he's just here to get back together."Wow. You're here to see me already?" She said excited, she tried hugging him but he stopped her."Really Tiana? You're asking me that? Is this why you did that to Daphne? You think that would make me come to you because I am so scared you and your friends would beat her up again?"Tiana was taken aback by his sudden outburst. She saw how his eyes changed colour and how angry he is. She moved back, scared and thinking he might hurt her."Why are you looking at me like that? I did nothing wrong! She deserves it! She just came out of nowhere to take you away from me! You think it is that easy for me to let you go??!" Tiana yelled, knowing she got caught already.Jared could not believe the level of evil in her.
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES • THE BIG COMPETITION DAY •Umbrie and the rest studied well for the competition. They are going to have it today. They are well prepared to support Umbrie while she answers the questions. Of course, they would all work together while Umbrie would represent them. This made Umbrie nervous as she has isn't that big with the crowd focusing on her.They got there on time and the competition took off. It went on for a few hours as many schools got eliminated. But Umbrie and her classmates made it to the finals. It was tough, as there was another school chasing them in scores.Everyone anticipated there would be a tie between the two schools during the finals. While the others were below them, they had a tie at the finals so the first and second person could not be decided yet. This made Umbrie and her friends work harder, Umbrie was happy enough they made it to the finals.This alone should make her parents proud of her. It is being broadcasted at a news c
Umbrie took the next available flight back to Ice Valley the next day, very early. She got there after a few hours and met Kieran waiting to pick her up. She ran towards him and jumped on him, they caught the attention of people around the airport. "Baby, I missed you so much. I almost took a flight over because I thought you were taking too long." Kieran said embracing her tight. She smiled, "You can't be serious. How are we going to see each other then? I missed you too but you know why I came early." He pouted, "You're not going to spend time with me? What about me? I also need to be cared for."She scoffed, "Don't be silly Kieran. You know how much she means to me. You two are very important, but right now she needs me. Let me see her first, then we will have time for us later." He sighed, understanding her and knowing he's just being too selfish. Umbrie needs to see her best friend, he would probably do the same if it happened to his friend. Not that he has much friends thoug
