CHAPTER TEN
NATHANS POV
I gathered everyone in a room to address what had happen earlier on. It was very careless especially on Lisa's part and I made sure to state that archery would no longer be practised in school. It could have been way more worse if Kylie had been shot somewhere close to her heart. It could have been deadly in fact but I'm very glad that didn't happen.
" I want all the poisoned arrows to be kept away and not be used unless if a need arises . There would also be no archery in school as from today onwards. You all need to be careful especially with things like this. "
" And also, Do well to apologize to Kylie when she wakes up." I said turning to Lisa who gave a nod in agreement. I left afterwards and ordered one of my mother's maid to stay with Kylie through the night. I couldn't stay with her righ
CHAPTER ELEVENKYLIE'S POV I couldn't take my eyes off him as he laid the tray of food down beside me and I realised one thing, I had caused all of our problems and now I dont think I'd be able to fix things the way he wanted me to . He wanted me to accept my love for him openly and that I couldn't do . That I wasn't brave enough to do. I worried my bottom lip as I studied his features . His jaw line and how perfectly shaped it was, his pointed nose , dark eyes and full lips which seem to remind me now of how he had kissed me that day , so breathlessly. I'd be lying if I say I'll be able to bear this Malice or bad energy between us any longer . I couldn't. I couldn't let him be angry at me but what am I supposed to do about it. He doesn't seem to want to clear it out and he's making it harder for me with our close proximity now. Some tendrils of his hair had tum
CHAPTER TWELVEKYLIE'S POV There was always a way Nathan looked at me whenever he saw me with Derek . His gaze was always heated and I couldn't quite understand it but i knew he didn't like seeing me with Derek even though he sometimes trys to hide it. We haven't talked much since the day we cleared out our misunderstanding except from his usual visits to my room when he decides to check up on me but I can gladly say he's no longer angry or he doesn't act angry towards me except from today when Derek showed up. We were initially together in my room and he insisted that I be checked first by the doctor before I resume school .Derek came along the way and I can still remember vividly the look on Nathan's face before he left the both of us alone in my room. He suddenly had on a dull expression which made It clear he didn't like the fact I was
CHAPTER THIRTEEN KYLIES POV Nathan seems to notice the scared and uncertain expression I had on after seeing Lisa watching me . He and Rio had sat down on both my sides before he gently tapped my shoulder, making me look at him.' What's wrong ?" He asked and I forced a smile trying to cover my my nervousness but he saw right through me. Rio was also drawn into the conversation by now and he paid close attention to me." Nothing ." I replied and he arched an eyebrow still gazing at me." It's okay if you don't want to tell me. "He replied and I felt somehow surprised about his behaviour . He was friendly and not pushing things with me like the way he always had and I kind of appreciated it. His new way of acting towards me and not really making it all about the mate bond. If I were to
CHAPTER FOURTEENNATHAN'S POV Mitchell walked me to an empty classroom before she finally stopped and turned to face me . She looked upset and I wondered if she knew the truth already about Kylie being my mate. It would be very bad and mean alot of trouble because she'll definitely go after Kylie and I can already imagine all that she'll do ." I've been hearing some news of lately." She said with folded arms and I acted like I knew nothing of what she was saying . I didn't wanted to give anything off." What Is it ? " I asked." It's about you and Kylie and the way you've become very fond of her . What exactly is going on ? " I was very much relieved when she said that because it meant she hadn't found out that I and Kylie were mates but I knew her suspicion might just grow into that v
CHAPTER FIFTEENKYLIE'S POV Lisa's words obviously sounded like a threat and were meant to make me stay away from Nathan completely but I don't think I could do that . I couldn't stay away from him and I was very much content with our friendship . He was trying his best to be patient with me and I liked it that way . I didn't want to push him away again because I would only be hurting myself and don't think I'll be able to live with him being angry at me or avoiding me . I couldn't bare it the last time and I had to beg him to start speaking to me again which I'm very glad he did and so I wanted things to remain this way between us. It was also not a thing I try to hide when I said I was afraid of what Lisa and Mitchell could do to me or what Nathan's parents could do to me if they find out that I have a thing with Nathan or that we we're both mates
CHAPTER SIXTEENKYLIE'S POV " So have you thought about where we should go ? " I asked as I stepped into Nathan's car and shut the door ." Mm.. maybe a restaurant or would you like any other place ."" No that's perfect. " I replied. We were only going to talk and so I think a restaurant would be perfect. I tried pulling on the seat belt but it seemed to be stuck and I struggled with it . Nathan noticed it just before he drove and he came leaning down towards me to help . He must have only cared about helping me and hadn't noticed how close he was but that was the only thing I could think about now. His proximity and the gentle brush of his hand at my side as he helped me." There you go ." He replied just when he was done and had pulled the belt on me . He looked up to me and it was then he
CHAPTER SEVENTEENKYLIE'S POV It was something I've probably never said before , that I liked him but I thought it was very obvious to him by now . It should be . Maybe all he wanted was for me to say it at this moment and that I couldn't do . I was very much contented with our friendship and I didn't want to rush things or create a situation whereby we would get to act on our feelings without thinking straight ." Even if I never said it, you should know its true . " I finally said but he didn't reply and instead acted like I didn't say anything. Maybe he had considered it and thought it not necessary to bring it up because of our present state but honestly , it felt ockward to me whenever I wanted him to say something and he said nothing in return . I couldn't quite explain it but I knew I wished things were kind of different for th
CHAPTER EIGHTEENNATHAN'S POV I couldn't really turn down Nevida's request even though what she asked of me was something I don't normally do. I never liked showing the new students around because I wasn't really the sociable type or the type who easily makes friends . I was quite okay with just sticking to my friends but it may seem rude now if I turn her down . I've met her before and we've also talked so maybe she wants me to show her around because I'm probably among the few people here she's seen or knows ." Fine . If that's what you want . " I replied and then waited for her to get her things before we both left . I led her through the hallways and showed her the different classes situated in that area. I also showed her the cafeteria , the library and the offices too." I knew there was something odd about you th
