ALEXIA

Walking with crutches is a lot harder than it looked, while Mom stayed behind to secure the lock on the door, I attempted to make my way up the stairs, the fear of tripping holding me back.

“It’s going to take some time for you to get used to walking with it.” Mom said, coming up behind me to assist.

With her help, I made it up the stairs and my bedroom without falling or tripping. However, I was surprised when she didn’t linger behind after helping me because during the car ride, she kept stealing glances at me.

I couldn’t tell if she was worried about my ‘friends’ or concern but then I recalled the conversation we had about me not having a boyfriend in high school. She couldn’t possibly think one of them is my boyfriend…could she?

Shaking my head, I dropped the crutches near my writing desk, backing them against my wardrobe. My braids itch like crazy and I didn’t want to think about taking them out in preparation to having them made again tomorrow.

  • The Alpha’s Hidden Mate    Chapter 27

    ALEXIA Nothing in the world could have prepared me for what happened next, my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach as Killian hurriedly dropped me on my feet. I opened my mouth to apologize but something in his gaze stopped me, he looked repulsed, angry and…terrified? I didn’t have the time to pinpoint that because he already staggered away from me, putting as much distance between us. He was panting heavily, like he had been running a marathon and as if he couldn’t bear to be near me any minute longer, he broke into a half run in the opposite direction. Tears blurred my vision, rolling down my face when I bent down to pick up my backpack. Why am I getting emotional? Everyone has gotten rejected once or twice in their lifetime but that’s the thing, I wasn’t doing anything wrong. I didn’t ask him to carry me, he insisted! and with how repulsed he looked a while ago, he shouldn’t have if he hated touching me that much. He certainly didn’t hate kissing me that much since he did it

    ALEXIA “Alexia!” Before I could even turn around, Raven already left me off the ground from behind and was spinning me around. “I missed you!” I laughed when she finally set me back on my feet, a little embarrassed at how easily she was able to lift me up, but then I had to acknowledge she has the strength of a werewolf too. “I know you’ve only been gone a day but I miss you too! I hope you are good?” “Yeah, just some family drama—” She paused, her attention briefly focused on our audience. “What are you all looking at?” She sneered at them, causing them to look away from us and back to whatever they were doing. Damn I miss her! “Oh…since you’re here, I assume the family drama has been taken care of.” She flung one arm over my shoulder, pulling me close as we made our way out of the locker room. “What did I miss? Tell me everything!” “How dare you!” Izzie interrupts, cutting in front of us. “Be specific.” I replied knowing my morning is about to be ruined by whatever Izzie was

    ALEXIA They forgot me! Ben and Zeke freaking forget the fact that they were supposed to pick me up after school. I made sure not to keep them waiting, as soon as I finished with my last lesson for the day, I didn’t even stop to chat with Leo or torture Izzie into carry my stuff. I hurried towards the parking lots just in time to see them driving off! Several minutes passed by with me still staring after their ‘long disappeared out of sight’ car, a wave of anger stirring up inside me. So now I’m supposed to walk all the way to the manor? While I have no issue walking home from school everyday, the distance from school to the manor is way further than my house and I can’t not go because of the project. Only because of the project which has nothing to do with the fact that I desperately want to see Killian. Who said that? I knew when Leo came up beside me without even looking at my side, he also stared into the distance before he spoke. “Is there any reason why we are looking out ther

    ALEXIARaven never showed up to school, I double texted her, asking if she was alright and I never got a response back. I couldn’t concentrate in class because of how worried I was. Fortunately, the teacher was too busy yapping on about what she was teaching to care about if we were paying attention or not. Once the bell rang, indicating class was over, I cleared my desk before then making my way towards the exit. “Miss Jackson…” I stopped at the sound of my name, turning back around, I approached the teacher where she stood. “You called me.” “Indeed I did, care to explain why you weren’t paying attention in my class?” She inquired, folding her arms across her chest. Oh? She did notice then! Realizing I might be facing detention as punishment, I search my mind for any excuse that could potentially save me from that. “I apologize if it seemed that way but I can assure you, I was very much paying attention.” There was a second pause before she spoke. “Look, I understand our school

    ALEXIA Killian dropped me off at home and we bade each other good night. Walking up to the front door, I noticed it was locked when I tried to open it so I fished out my key from my backpack instead. What ticket did Killian give them this time? Pushing the door open, I step inside and then drop my bag on the couch. Next I took off my shoes and went into the kitchen in my socks to get myself a drink. Just as I set down the cup, I heard the front door open and Dad’s laughter floating into the room. I immediately hurried back to pick up my stuff before they stumbled on them. “Oh, you’re back. Your Dad and I were hoping to beat you back home so I can get started on dinner already.” “Dinner? You aren’t cooking tonight Alice, why don’t you go get change and I’ll order pizza.” Dad replied. I watched Mom beamed up at him before placing a kiss on his cheek and then walking away. Once she was gone, I turned to Dad, waiting for him to tell me about their outing. I was also curious to know h
