KATHERINE My hands wrapped around my knees, my head placed in between my thighs as my teeth shook from the cold. I was falling asleep… almost, until I heard a knock from the cave’s gate. The guards guarding it never knock or take permission. They would barge in and throw me out instead so hearing a knock wasn’t only foreign and suspicious but also had my head jerking toward the direction of the metal gate. “Hey… it’s me.” That voice. It sounds so much like Bryson’s.My heart skipped a beat as I scrambled to my feet, my numb fingers fumbling with the thin blanket- I don't know what made them change their mind but I was given yesterday- wrapped around me. That voice... it sent shivers down my spine. I approached cautiously, my eyes fixed on the silhouette."Who's 'me'?" I called out, trying to sound firm despite the tremble in my voice. I'm scared, scared to the bone especially since I'm certain it's no one of the guards...The figure stepped forward and shifted back. "Bryson?" I

KATHERINE “No, this is the wrong lane. Taking this route is only going to lead us to the wolves.” Bryson kept walking but I stopped, fear reverberating through my body as I said, feet stuck to the spot.He stopped to look over his shoulder. “Seriously? We haven’t even gotten anywhere. We are just trying to locate her place… trust me already.” A little laugh escaped him, and it’s a sweet, tinkling sound.“Keep leading the way then. I’ll trust you to safeguard my life.” My mouth popped open. I squared my shoulder when he nodded in agreement and I followed behind him, my eyes not ceasing to dance around us. Don’t blame me, I don’t want to die. Not yet and definitely not this way. Ten minutes into the walk and there’s still no house nor anyone in sight. Instead it seemed like the farther we walk, the more lost we are. I could have sworn I’ve began to slack off the walk when Bryson said my mind, “Do you know of how the house looks like when you see it?” “I was on blindfold. I saw noth

Third Person's PovFor someone who doesn't want to attend the party, it was a lot of fun. That night didn't only give Katherine the privilege to have few gulp of wine but also made Derek take her to his room, when she became tipsy. The ray of the sunlight from the window was what woke Katherine up the next morning but when she reached out beside her, it was empty. "Where did he go?" She asked herself as she got out of bed. As she dragged herself over to the bathroom to check, a yawn slipped out of her. She stepped into the vacant bathroom and felt something was off as she splashed water on her face. She grabbed a towel and wiped her face before looking into the mirror to see eye bags caused by yesterday's drink. Just as Katherine was about to leave the bathroom, there was a knock at the door. She was so startled she hurried to answer, only to find one of Derek's men standing there. "Where then is Derek?" She thought. "The Hybrid King asked me to pass a message to you once you'r

Third Person’s Pov“Have you heard from them? How did they say Katherine is faring?” Standing and watching Xavier’s pack as it gets burnt down bit by bit, Derek threw the question at his beta who was standing firm beside him, looking ahead just like the Hybrid.“The last time I phoned Fred, he told me she’s okay and that she was out with Bryson, so I couldn’t speak with her and tell her we’ll be back soon.” Edward answered, wrinkling his nose as the smoke in the air chokes even harder. “And why would she be out with him?” Head snapped toward Edward, Derek grunted. Derek knew that was a stupid question to ask but hearing about Bryson and Katherine being together often trigger something in him. Something not-so-good. “I really don’t know. Maybe for a stroll? Since she strolls a lot.” Edward hummed and he arched his brow, “She never does it with him. At least not with me there. I hate seeing them together and she knows but then again… can I get across to her now?” “We can just make o

Third Person's Pov"Mate!" Katherine's breath caught in her throat. She had heard her wolf say the word before but this was different. This was Derek acknowledging it- no refusal, no cold retort, just a pained acceptance. She took a step forward, her eyes scanning his face. She needed to see if this was really, if he'd suddenly deny it again like every other time. "You know, I spent so long trying to convince myself that myself it was all in my head. That maybe the bond I felt was just wishful thinking." She almost choked on her words as she whispered. Derek watched her. It's now a battle against wanting her and restraining himself but this time he didn't look away. "I knew. I knew from the beginning, Kathrine. And I fought it- fought you. Because... Because I couldn't afford to have a weakness." "A weaknes?" She asked disbelievingly, as she tried to keep the hurt from showing. "Is that all I am to you?" "No, if course not." He reached for her hand, catching it before she c
