I couldn’t ask Caine what he meant by his last statement today because he left so fast even with me calling after him.But I knew the night he was talking about The night I lost everything.The night my world came crashing down.I didn’t go back to my house for the rest of the day and I cried my way till I left the school and waited till the last set of people had gone before I came out for my bag.I locked my bag inside my locker because I wasn’t heading home, I went with only my purse.Now I was here with the bartender Betty, drinking my way to forgetfulness.It's a cold, rainy night, and I got wet on my walk from the school to the bar after Caine left. And the rain soaked through my clothes on my way and also through my hair.Now my shirt was matted to my body and my nipples were peeking out my shirt, but the alcohol kept my insides warm.I swirled the alcohol I’m my glass and watched the beauty of the alcohol as it turned.“I need him here” I Murmured.“I’m assuming it’s the Alp
CAINE’s POVI dropped my phone and plopped on my bed again for the hundredth time today.I was about to go crazy.Going downstairs to the kitchen, I got two bottle of wine to restock my bar in my room. And took up a plate of fruit salad my mum had prepared in the fridge for me.I couldn’t cook to save myself and she knew that so she had food stored in takeaways in the fridge.Barefooted and in sweats I headed up to my room again.It was past nine and my mind went to her.It killed me not knowing where she was and what she was doing today. I had tried spending the day acting like I didn’t care but it didn’t help.And I wanted to stay true to my promise of not giving her any trouble, so I avoided asking anyone to tail her.It made me feel empty.My parents had gone on their vacation yesterday and I was all alone at home.They were using their retirement well and I had this big manor all to myself for the the first time in years. I missed when I, Tristan and Caleb used to run around th
CAINE’s POV I drove my car into the driveway of Hazel’s house I hadn’t seen her since she left my house this morning and it felt like forever.I came with drinks for her and some of the salad my mum had left for me.Since she left in a hurry this morning, refusing to look at my face or say something to me.But here I was and she was not alone.Tristan was here and they had painting canvas outside and bottles of paint and painting brushes laying around.So this was what he needed paint for yesterday That fucker They were bare footed and looked too cozy it angered me .This shit housery needed to stop, and it had to be now. I came out of my car and slammed the door shut Enough to gain their attention since they both acted like they didn’t know I was here.Tristan turned and smiled at me, lord knows how hard I’m trying to rein my anger in. I wasn’t going to cause a scene today “Sup man” he greeted as I walked up to him “Beta” I said nodding and wanting to keep things formal so he
I sat in the balcony watching him throw an overnight bag in the boot.He was leaving like he told me last night.I already missed him but showing it wasn’t going to do me no good, I didn’t want to sound or look needy.I felt so peaceful when I slept close to him yesterday and in his arms and it was perfect, i wished it could be every night The she devil I had hit on the head with a bottle came as early at the crack of dawn probably to make up with Caine, because he had told me they were not speaking.After he threw her in the hole I guessed she was still sore about it.When she arrived Caine left me, I knew because the bed got cold and his movements woke me up. I watched him throw on a shirt and headed downstairs.After some time I could hear some hushed arguments and her voice was getting higher.I got up out of bed and went out of the room.Standing on the banister I could hear what they said clearly “You can’t seriously be doing this to me” Tatiana said and it sounded like she wa
I wasn’t functioning well and I called in sick at work today It wasn’t a lie because I was sick with loneliness I missed Caine It’s been three days since he left with Tatiana on his business trip. It felt stupid because I’ve not known him that long and I’m going crazy with worry because I hadn’t talked to him in a while.Megan and David were still on their vacation and Leslie was out with Kyla and I hadn’t seen Tristan in days now. I was going crazy without company, his company.Strange enough, I dreamt about Caine when yesterday night when I slept.The same dream about being in a field, a pregnant me with Caine beside me telling me how much he loved me .I didn’t want to think too much on it, because I didn’t know where we stood, so I pushed it to the side We had just spent three nights together and an apology, I couldn’t count it as anything.I knew I felt something deep down for him. He had my heart beating and making me feel all kinds of feelings I couldn’t put a name to or
My doorbell rang for the fifth time since I was jerked awake from my sleep.I didn’t know when I fell asleep yesterday while talking to Caine but he made me sleep so easily.I wasn’t a morning person and I dragged my feet as I walked downstairs. Sleepily I went to open the door and the cold plus the presence of someone hit me smack dab in the face.He stood there, my Caine In a white shirt smiling at me looking as beautiful as ever.In my shock I stood confused, I was just talking to him in the wee hours of the morning and now he was here I couldn’t hold myself anymore, I fell into his arms His arms covered me and I squeezed him tight, I didn’t want to let him go in the fear that he might go again or this might be a dream.Hugging him wasn’t enough for me, it wasn’t giving me what I wanted so I drew back held his face in between my hands, stood on my tippy toes and kissed him hard.His arms went around my waist and held me tight there, he kissed me back with the same Fervor and en
After my fun filled day with Caine when he came back I was convinced I was in love with him.I just couldn’t keep lying to myself that I was confused again. I loved him from the day he kissed me in my house and left me hanging.It was a love hate relationship even amidst the fights and quarrels I loved that man.Hiding it was of no use now, he’s made me feel what I hadn’t felt before and I loved it and wanted to keep it forever.Where my uncertainty lied was not knowing how he felt for me, I still didn’t know where we stood and what we had, had no label.We touched and he gave me gifts and sleeps every night with me, was it enough to say I loved him and he did love me also? I sighed as I thought about it I didn’t want to rush into anything and have my ass handed back to me and making me a mess, I was fine here I didn’t want any situation ship with the alpha that’ll make me leave here. He’s had something with Tatiana before and it wasn’t so hard for him to leave her I hoped I wouldn’
I found him, working on his truck, in the garage at the back of the house. He was smiling with opened arms waiting for me to walk in to them“You don’t mind walking into grease right?”My face was blank, I could not give any reaction I was hurt“Hello,…..mate”His smile faded and his face dropped also with with his opened arms “How are you, mate” I over emphasized “Mate”?He was silent “Mate?”“How’d you find out?” He finally asked after some seconds of silence and he started wiping his hand on a clean towel, trying to busy himself and not look at my face. “How did I find out? Are you serious Caine?”“Hazel” he reached out for me but I pulled my hand away“Since when have you known?”“The first day”“All these while, all these treatments, all these lie, lying with me every night, buying me gifts, it was all a joke to you!?” My voice was going up “I know I’ve been the worst, but I’ll love and treat you better if you let me”“If I let you?” I scoffed in mockery “You had the cha
