CHAPTER 06

CHAPTER SIX

KYLIE'S POV

I dared not do anything with my lips again while being held by Nathan. I didn't even speak nor did I look at him in the eye because it would easily give away the amount of effect he had on me, the amount of butterflies I felt in my stomach right now because of our close proximity and how much I wanted to see if he'll do what he just said .

He soon seem to let go of me in a rather ockward manner and left me with the ghost of the feel of his touch. I kind of felt a bit disappointed though but was also relieved about it.

He got back to planting the seeds , looking really graceful , handsome and sexy with the way he stood . There was silence for that moment and after he was done , he handed the vase over to me.

" You'll like to be the one to keep it right? " He asked, now avoiding looking at me.

" Yeah, yeah ....sure." I said and collected it from him. He suddenly looked sad again and acted like he wasn't just in an intimate situation with me a while ago and I couldn't quite understand it.

" I guess I'll let you know when it starts growing." I said and he nodded. I took it as my time to leave since he didn't say anything again.He's been acting really strange these days like he's trying so hard not to talk much with me and it kind of hurts me.

I opened the door to leave and was surprised to see Mitchell on the other side and about to place a knock. I suddenly felt drained and nervous because I knew she was going to ask questions about what I was doing in Nathan's room. It took alot in me not to let go of the vase from my hand .

" What are you doing here?" She asked , folding her arms , her gaze piercing into mine and I felt dumb .

" Uhm , biology practical." I finally gathered the words and raised the vase to show her.

" In his room? " She asked suspiciously , gesturing over to Nathan.

" Yea, he insisted that the seeds be planted in his room" I replied and she didn't say a word but if looks could kill, I'd probably be dead right now. I heard Nathan approaching and quickly decided to leave.

I knew for sure she had her doubts and I blame Nathan for insisting that I come to his room. She was more like his girlfriend and everyone thought them both to be mates. Only that they weren't and I don't think Mitchell knows that Nathan was my mate because all hell would have broken loose. His parents and everyone would stand beside her and l on the other hand would be alone . This was why I felt it wasn't going to work out even though I had feelings for him. They'll never accept or choose me over her. Her rank was higher in the pack, she was more beautiful , confident and all the things that I'm not.

I was really lucky she didn't come in while he was holding me because I'd have been in serious trouble and I don't know if Nathan would stand up for me . She'd probably would have slapped me and report me to the alpha and I'll then get into bigger trouble but I thank the stars that didn't happen.

She may be questioning him now and I wonder what they'll do after. I mean they are supposed mates afterall and I wonder if Nathan touches her. He probably does and maybe kisses her too or even do more than that but I don't know why I care. It's his business and we weren't anything yet. We just think we are mates and nothing more.

I got back to my room and placed the vase close to the window before going to my bed to lay on it, still disturbed about everything.

**************

The next day in school, much didn't really happen in the morning. Derek was once again absent and that left me to myself all through out the classes . I didn't see Nathan and neither did I see Mitchell too in classes and even when I went to the canteen, I still didn't see any of them. I wondered where they both were.

After taking my last class for that day, I decided to stroll over to the field path but stopped on my tracks because of the sight before me. It was Nathan and Mitchell and they both sat down in the middle of the field and also seemed to be having a conversation.

As though sensing me , Nathan turned around and his eyes met mine. I didn't know what I felt but I knew I felt something . Something that said I hated seeing him with her. Perhaps jealousy but I couldn't really tell and so I turned around and left.

I think it's better if he'll just reject me and take her as his mate because he obviously love spending time with her and maybe the next time he tries to touch me and say some intimate words, I'll push him away and shut him up. It seems as though he's thought it over and decided that Mitchell was best for him and so I'm going to make it clear later this evening if I see him that he should never touch me again.

I stormed away and didn't even look back once. I must see him later tonight and tell him never to do that to me again. He can't keep on touching me or playing with my feelings and then spending time with Mitchell.

I went to the Library instead and I realized just how much I missed Derek. He'll probably be talking to me if he was here and also be asking me stupid questions but now I felt really lonely, frustrated and mad.
