I just stood there, unable to say anything as I stared at them with wide eyes and my heart racing like it was about to leap out of my chest. Mate? She… she found her mate? “Oh, you must be Levi. It's nice to finally meet you" The mate who I now knew as Andrew greeted then outstretched his hand towards me and I wanted nothing more than to punch him across the face and pull Karla towards me. “Karla, can we talk?" I muttered without shaking Andrew's hand and I watched as he withdrew it with a whistle. Before Karla could speak, her fucking mate spoke for her. “No can't do. We were on our way out, right Karla?" Karla, who hadn't spoken for a while, nodded, refusing to meet my eyes. “So if you'll excuse us…" My eyes narrowed when he wrapped his arm firmly around her waist and was about to pull her away when I grabbed her hand. “I want to speak with you Karla, please" They both paused at my words then Andrew sighed. “You can always ta

~KARLA~ Despite what I said, I found myself searching for Levi as Andrew walked me back home. “I enjoyed tonight although we hardly spoke" I frowned and instantly began to feel guilty. “I'm sorry Andrew. I'll make it up to you" I murmured and he grinned. ’“I'll hold you up to that" He muttered then leaned in to place a kiss on my cheek before he could get close, I moved away. “I'm sorry, Andrew" I murmured as I stared up at him with guilt on my face but he just smiled. “We'll get there someday. Have a good night, Karla. I'll be thinking of you all night" He murmured and I smiled. “Good night Andrew" I opened the door then walked in and let out a sigh as I rested my back on the door. “Karla, you're back. How was the date?" My mother, Joan, walked up to me wearing an apron and a smile on her face. “Hey mother, It was great. Andrew just left. He would have come in but I think he was rushing somewhere" For some reason, my father didn't se

~LEVI~ “You'll sleep in here. We don't really know what's going on between you both but I do not condone such acts under my roof. Plus, my daughter is very innocent" Karla's father muttered as he pulled me towards a room far from Karla's and I scoffed at his words. If he only knew half of the things Karla and I had done. I turned to her and a smirk appeared on my face when I saw how red her face was. She was properly thinking of the sans thing I was. After showing me to my room and getting me comfortable, Karla's father left and dragged her mother with him, probably trying to give us space. As soon as they were gone, I pouted at Karla. “I can't sleep without you" I murmured and tried reaching out for her but she rolled her eyes and backed up. “Don't say such things in front of my parents. My father might like you now but they have been very protective of me ever since I got here" I murmured. “But honesty is the best policy, isn't it? Plus I

“Karla, I love…" She placed her finger on my lips before I could get the word out and I stared at her with confusion written on my face. “Not yet, you know… you know how long I've been waiting to hear you say that and I want nothing more than to hear you mutter those words to me over and over again but now is not the right time. I have to settle things with Andrew and you have to talk to Anastasia" She slowly redrew her fingers from my lips and a frown adorned my face. “Why does everyone keep telling me to talk to Anastasia? I have nothing to say to her and I never want to see her" She placed her hand on my cheek and I easily succumbed to her touch. “Please talk to her for my sake" I stared into her eyes for a while then sighed before nodding. “Okay but don't waste time with Andrew. I want you to stay here with me tonight" She scrunched up her nose and I immediately leaned in to place a kiss on her face. She was so cute! “I think it's better you

As soon as Sebastian told me that, I went in search of Karla. This was all my fault, I should have never called Anastasia. “Fuck it" I muttered as I ran towards her house. I didn't care about my meeting, Karla was way more important. When I got to her house, I knocked on the door and stood there for a few seconds before her mother opened the door with furrowed eyebrows. “Mr Medici? What are you…" “Is Karla here? Or perhaps do you know where she went with Andrew?" She frowned then folded her arms as she rested her body on the door frame. “What are your plans for my daughter? I know for a fact that Andrew is going to love her but you, I know nothing about you and I don't want my daughter getting hurt. You know how much she has suffered right?" I smiled then nodded. “I won't say I haven't hurt your daughter in the past because I'm sure I have but I'm here to make things right and I'm here to show her just how much I love her. She left me because i
