Shy

“Hello, Indianna.”Indianna looked up in surprise when Greyson sat next to her in their next class, French. She quickly lowered her gaze when he met her eyes and fidgeted nervously in her seat. She didn’t say anything.“Now, this would be where you say hi back, otherwise it would be considered rude, Indianna,” Greyson said in a low voice. He smirked and his dark eyes twinkled with amusement when Indianna’s eyes widened and forced out a quiet “Hi.”“I don’t think I introduced myself in our last class. I’m Greyson Evans.” Greyson spoke with a confidence that Indianna had never had. You could tell that this boy was not used to being questioned or argued back to. He was used to being in charge, and he liked it.“Yes, Brooke told me,” Indianna told him. She was certain that she was not going to forget who Greyson Evans was any time soon. Just the thought of him being within touching distance was making her nervous. Her skin was buzzing from their close proximity and he seemed to take over a

“How was school?”Indianna’s mother, Iris, was by the door when Indianna arrived home after school. She was smiling kindly but Indianna didn’t smile back. Indianna had a difficult relationship with her mother and she was quickly growing tired of it. Iris had been a wonderful mother when Indianna was younger, she adored her and did everything she could for her.That was until Indianna’s father died. From then on, Iris had retreated into herself and didn’t show Indianna the love or affection that she once had. She still cared about her daughter, but Indianna often felt unwanted.She didn’t think her mother cared anymore, so on the few days that Iris seemed to perk up and take an interest in Indianna’s life, Indianna knew it wouldn’t last. She knew that her mother would lose interest the next day or the day after and Iris would go back to walking around the house, lost in her own mind and not talking to Indianna about anything personal and the only conversations they would have would rema

Indianna couldn’t speak, she just sat, frozen in shock. She assumed it might have been Greyson, but she never thought that it actually would’ve been.‘Sugar? Talk to me?’‘I-I... Erm...’‘You’re shocked.’‘No shit.’‘Don’t swear, sugar.’‘Tell me how this is possible.’‘I can’t answer that yet.’‘You said you’d give me answers!’‘I told you who I am.’‘I wish you hadn’t now.’‘Now, that’s not very nice, sugar.’ Indianna could practically hear the smirk that was most definitely on his lips.‘What were you talking about, with my mum?’‘I can’t answer that yet either.’‘You’re not right in the head, Greyson.’‘How comes?’‘What you were saying to my mum, that wasn’t right.’‘Care to elaborate?’‘You said that I “belong to you” and something about crossing the border into your land. And what the hell is a “pack”?’‘You’re just full of questions, sugar.’‘And you find that surprising?’‘No, quite annoying actually. Do you have to be so curious?’‘This is your fault! You can’t just randomly

“How long are we going to be stuck here?” Indianna wondered, looking up at Greyson who shrugged.“Your guess is as good as mine,” he said and she ran her fingers through her hair.“It’s been two hours,” she muttered and Greyson furrowed his eyebrows at her.“Sugar, are you alright, you look like you’re going to be—”“Sick,” Indianna gulped and jumped up from the floor. She ran into the girls bathroom that were luckily opposite them and rushed into a stall.“Indianna, you alright?” Greyson called as she puked into the toilet.“I’m fine,” she grumbled. “Just leave me alone.”“You’re not fine,” he said and opened the stall door. He held her hair back from her face and she puked again.“Then why did you ask,” she muttered. “Please, I don’t want you to see me puking.”“Just shut up and let me help you, Indianna,” Greyson said and she puked one more time before sitting back on her heels. “Is that it?”“I bloody hope so,” she sighed and grabbed some tissue and wiped her mouth with it.“Here.”

Greyson pulled up at his house and got out of the car, walking round to the passenger side and gently lifting Indianna up. She was fast asleep and had been the whole journey back.“Greyson, what happened?” Ace walked out of the house with Kal beside him. “Is she alright?” He gasped, looking at Indianna.“She’s fine, she’s in shock.”“Why?”“Rogue.”“Rogues? Where abouts?” Kal wondered, cracking his knuckles.“No, Rogue. The Rogue,” Greyson snapped. “She recognised him.”“Shit,” Ace gasped.“He killed her father.”“What’s he doing here?” Kal wondered.“I’m guessing it’s to finish the job,” Ace said bitterly.“No, Indie would be dead already if that was his intent. He may be here for her, but he doesn’t want to kill her,” Greyson muttered. “Ace, I need you to take some guys out and search every inch of this town. If you get the chance, kill him. I don’t want to take any chances.”“Okay,” Ace nodded.“What are you going to do with Indianna?” Kal wondered.“Right now, wait till she wakes u
