All Chapters of Fated but Hated: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Lachlan opened the door to the cabin, by brother and Marcus strode inside. Neither one looked happy to see him, nor did they acknowledge him as they passed him by to stand inside the living area. I had not wanted them here, but Lachlan had taken it upon himself to assume that I did. He had not answered my question, instead choosing to tidy up and avoid me at every opportunity. Which considering the size of the small cabin was quite a task…His eyes had expressed a thousand words the moment they met mine, which I think is why he had quickly averted his gaze, and moved away from me. He knew that I would be able to read his thoughts from his eyes. I knew Lachlan too well. In choosing to rush around the cabin occupying himself he was only silently allowing more secrets to be revealed. More things had been said between him and my family, I was sure of it, and one way or another, I would get to the bottom of it.“Aww, Ren, you look better.” Marcus offered

Lachlan’s words meant a lot, and I could see the genuineness of them as he spoke. That meant as much to me as his previous apologies. I should have taken that opportunity to talk to him. Especially now that my mind was beginnig to feel like my own again, but my brother was sweeping me out of the cabin and toward the car before I could respond. Cole wanted me away from Lachlan, or away from the conversation that was developing. So, I was marched to the car. I had expected Lachlan to follow. Assuming he too would be ready for a break from the cabin. But, once again Lachlan did what Lachlan did best, he stayed away. Or, more specifically, he watched me walk away...I would not lie, there was an unexpected ache in my chest as I was ushered away the short distance to the car by Cole. Maia whimpered as she quickly realized the footsteps behind us belonged to Marcus and not to Lachlan. A brief glance back told me he had not stepped foot from the cabin. He was

Seren had returned to her home on campus, I was aware of that, and as Cole and I worked out alongside one another in the gym, he told me she had taken her own car this time with her feeling better. Last time we had chosen for us to take her, with her having just come out of the hospital, so we didn’t think driving herself would be the best. Not to mention we wanted to check out the security of her home and the area around it. From the things Cole had said Seren seemed glad to be back.I knew that with the current situation as it was with Lachlan she found it easier to be away from pack. I don't think I could blame her, and I think, even if he would not admit it, that was why he stayed out at the cabin the way that he did. Refusing at every turn to come back home... But, for the whole, I knew that campus life was good for Seren. A little change would do her good. Learning... gaining the qualifications she wanted... all while having fun and making new friends. I was just glad she was ab

I had shocked myself just how much I had enjoyed the football game. Beforehand I had spent a little time finding the tutors I needed to speak to, apologising for my unexpected absence, and thankfully they had been very understanding when I simply mentioned it was due to illness. I should easily be able to catch up with the work I had missed with a little determination, and I was without a doubt determined. I had rushed home then to hurry myself to get ready for the night ahead... a date? I was unsure, but oddly I had been looking forward to it. Settling back in to my home was going to wait...I did not have much freedom within pack. Having a very protective Father as I grew up. And then once Cole got older, a far too protective older brother too who stepped into the lead protector once my father had passed away. Add into the equation Marcus and Lachlan who had been like two additional protectors, it was like I had been guarded. Anything I wanted to do was al

Corey was oblivious to it all. He comfortably had his arm around me protecting me from the chaos of the bar, smiling at me at every given opportunity, but I had all but frozen at the sight of Marcus and Lachlan. Why were they here? They had never said they were coming... And then suddenly, Lachlan moved toward us, and my heart raced within my chest. This was not going to end well.“What can I get you to drink sweetcheeks?” Corey winked at me. He was being charming again, but it had none of the affect it had had earlier. I felt nauseous, and my eyes were upon Lachlan. Nerves flooded my body knowing that when he got angry he was terrifying. He could cause chaos here... he could have me kicked out of college if people knew he was with me. From the way his jaw jutted out, and the determination within his step I knew he was on a mission. But what worried me most was I did not know what he planned to do. I could see anger in those beautiful dark eyes o
