The badboy Alpha's bait

Chapter FIFTEEN

Aaron's POV

That b*****d thinks he can take Catherine and just walk out of school? She belongs to me. No one else can have her.

"Someone's pissed" Nick says as he approaches me in the hallway. I snap my head at him and ignore the smirk on his face.

"I want everyone information about that guy"

"The one I just saw dragging Catherine out of school?"

"Yes. Find out everything you can about him, and tell me when you have enough information."

Catherine's POV

It's been hours since I left school. It's now dark and I have no where to go. Luckily Corner is with me. He's still holding my hand as we stroll around the garden.

He haven't said much words to me since we left school and I actually get that he knew I needed some quiet time,but now I won't mind if we have a little chat. I look up at him first before I think of what to say.

"How come you don't hate me like the rest of them do?" I ask him as I think about the prank my classmates pulled on me. From the corner of my eyes I can see him staring at me, but I don't turn to look at him.

"I saw all their faces. They were laughing at me. Not one of them didn't have a smile on as I struggled with tears while covered in paint" the memory pains me just thinking about it as I stare at the ground. Corner comes in front of me at that moment and cups my face with his hands. He lifts my face up to look at him.

"I can't hate you. I can pretend I do, but the feelings won't be true" He says to me in a quiet voice before he drop his hands to his sides.

We continue walking, his gaze are focused on the Infront of us as we walk, with our hands still entwined.

"I remember the first day I saw you. You bumped into me and fell down on your but it was so hilarious." He says with a slight laugh as he turns to face me and I smile at the memory.

He continues to speak.

"But then when you raised your head up to look at me I thought you were the most beautiful girl I've ever seen before" I stare at him as he continues talking. He averts his gaze to look at me and our eyes meet.

"I wanted to be with you, even if it meant coming up with a stupid lie just to get you to be around me"

"So you never had plans to meet anybody-" I say quietly in realization and stop walking. He stops walking too and turn around to face me.

"No. I never had plans to meet anyone, it was just a lie. And I did it to steal some of your time"

"But-"

"I like you Catherine" He says immediately, and my heart skips a beat at that moment. I stare at him surprised that he could possibly like me. We've been friends for some time now and I never imagined that he could ever grow strong feelings for me.

"Why?"

"Because we're alike"

"You're human?"

"No"

"How are we alike?" I ask him in curiosity. He watches me silently and parts his lips to speak before his gaze drops to the ground.

I'm about to ask him again when his lips immediately connects with mine. I stand still in shock because it's something I never expected, it's something that's never happened to me before. But I kiss him back and immediately I feel tingles as his hands cup my face. Adrenaline rushes through me as my mouth is lost in his. He kisses me so fiercely as his mouth explores mine.

I feel an emptiness when our lips separate and he rests his forehead on mine. Our breaths are rushed and uneven and I longingly stare up at his lips and imagine them on mine again.

Corner backs away from me and smiles his dashing smile at me. He ruffles my hair and I nudge his arm playfully. He takes my hand is his again and we continue to walk in the silent garden.

Aaron's POV

"What do you mean you don't know what pack he belongs too?! " I yell at Nick who doesn't seem to understand how furious I am.

"I've tried everything, there's no trace of information about him." Nick says and I slam my fist on the table in front of me. I see Sarah flinch from the corner of eye.

"What if he's telling the truth?" Hannah says beside me and I shoot her a glare.

"How difficult can it be to find information on somebody?" I yell at Hannah and turn away in annoyance.

"This f*****g Corner guy goes to our school and not a single soul personally knows him, we can't find any information on him even from the best private spies out there. isn't that suspicious?" Mason says.

The door opens at that moment and I snap my head to the direction to see Catherine walk in through the door.

"Who's he?" I ask her from across the living room and she looks at me confused.

"Who's the boy you've been hanging out with?" I roar violently when she doesn't answer.

"A friend" she says quietly and I scoff in annoyance. A friend?

I storm to the door to meet her angrily and she backs away till her back connects with the wall.

"I will ask you one more time, Who is he?" I sneer in her face with every word I say coming out with force. I can see the fear in her eyes as she looks up at me, but I dismiss them immediately.

"Answer me Catherine" I pin her to the wall with my hand around her neck as I choke her.

"Aaron p-please" Catherine cries to me as she tries to struggle from my grip, her fragile hands merely brushing mine.

"Answer me or I will choke you to death" my voice comes out strong and intimidating as I whisper close to her ear.

"A-a f-friend" her voice quavers as she speak. Why is she covering up for him? What If he has something to do with the hood and I'm not aware? I clench my teeth as I glare at Catherine. Immediately I angrily slap her face and she falls the ground with a squeal. Catherine looks up at me with fear as tears roll down her eyes, and I turn around and walk away.
