Some days had passed and while I was here I ran into Liam a few times. I had thought he would tell me to leave but all he did was look at me in disgust. After the first time I just acted as if he doesn’t exist. Dad had came over after I told him what happened but i don’t know what happened because he didn’t question liam on it in my presence. On the other hand, evon kept calling and texting me as if he didn’t ignore me for basically two weeks, telling me to come ‘home’ because he needed to talk to me and complaining about me not telling him happy birthday but I don’t want to see him right now. I always believe it’s better for both persons to want to hash things out rather than one because the person who doesn’t want to is just not gonna see the other person’s point. The thought of him knowing auri was also his mate and he didn’t say anything just disgust me.
‘We’ll aren’t you a hypocrite’ I heard a voice said in my head with a little chuckle.
‘You don’t have the right to judge him on that because you did the exact same thing to gael, doesn’t feel good does it?.’ The voice questioned. I frowned, a bit confused.
‘I didn’t do it on purpose we both were at fault’ I say out loud.
‘But you had the information that he would’ve used to make a choice, a choice you took from him. he would’ve still loved you the same, and though it still would’ve hurt him, he would’ve been more understanding and cautious about certain things. Who knows, you could’ve had a friend in him. And you can think what you want to say you don’t have to speak out loud.’ The voice sighed in disappointment.
‘Don’t do that, and who are you anyway.’
‘The name’s koa, kid’ she sighed.
‘Okay..and i’m not a kid’
‘Yes you are,and don’t test my patients talking back to me.’ It grunted.
‘Or what?’
‘you don’t know me like I do you, i can take over your body and do whatever i please with it. unfortunately I’m stuck with you as my human counterpart so count yourself lucky.’ She grunted and muttered the last part. I can now see her in my head, coming out of a dark corner of my mind as I now felt her presence.
“No fu****g way” i say out loud. She is a shiny chocolate brown colour with light brown streaks coming from between her ears down to the tip of her nose. I’m guessing it runs down her back. She looks so tall and beautiful. She looks majestic. Powerful.
‘Girl shush’ she scoffed.
‘How is this possible’ i asked her.
‘What?’
‘I can see you in my head. Like, your whole body, How is it possible?.”
‘Oh, really? I don’t know.’ She rolled her eyes.
‘ I thought..’ I didn’t get to finish what I wanted to say because she cut me off by answering.
‘The human can only see the lycan’s face in his or her head?’
‘Yea. Was it you who took over my body last time’ i ask her.
‘Well, not intentionally,and it wasn’t just me. I felt a force pulling me and at one point it felt like my soul intertwined with the others, then next thing i knew i felt like i was brought back from death with newfound energy and in a forest hahaha, ..we had no control over it until we were upfront, and so we went wild, that’s why you didn’t remember anything until we showed you. you need to let us out more or this would always happen whenever you have an outburst. Valentina is already fading away.’
‘Who’s Valentina?’
‘The vampire part of you’
‘What!! I’m not..’
‘ yes you are now stop denying her you’re already doing a number on her.’
‘ what the hell, what did i do’
‘You’ve yet to consume blood..she’s been locked up all these years. We all have been. Thank god you exploded that one time that gave her a bit of strength. You should thank her for not going on a k*****g spree, she was tempted to.
‘Well.. she could always eat an animal or something.’
‘ are you stupid or something. She wants blood..human blood that’s all they drink because nothing else tastes good to them.’
‘WHAT! No I’m not doing that,are you crazy,koa. That would mean killing someone.’
‘ you don’t have to, Just get someone who’s willing to give you.’
‘No, koa. I’m not doing that.’
‘So you’re willing to let her die. She’s apart of you, you really are heartless’
‘How am i heartless?, let me guess..k*****g a human is having a heart?’
‘You don’t have to k**l them..at least not after the first one. How about you let her take full control and do her thing, you won’t remember a thing.’ She suggested.
‘Gosh, no. okay..what about if she drinks from me then.’
‘I assume if she had a body of her own she would suck you dry in a heartbeat. Are you that stupid yolanda. You’re her and she’s you. I’m pretty sure if their own blood tastes good to them they wouldn’t bother with getting someone else’s.’
‘Why are you so harsh to me?’ I found myself asking her. I feel hurt that she would even say that.
‘Because you act like you don’t have a brain’ she gritted.
Before i could respond there was a knock at the door and koa quickly disappeared in the darkness of my mind leaving no trace of her presence. I sighed heavily and got up to answer the door to see it was my brother. i hugged him tight before he slowly remove himself form me.
“Your pest of a mate is going to call back for you. how have you been?.” He asked hoarsely as if he just woke up.
‘Im good..how’s Angie? ” I said as I took the phone.
“She’s alright. We’re going back today she’s gonna work night shift for the weekend. let me know if you need anything, alright.”
“Okay. Do you guys mind if i tag along.”
“Really yolan, you didn’t have to ask. Were leaving at twelve noon”
“Ok. I’ll start getting ready then.” I say as i handed him back his phone.
I went back in my room took a shower, made the bed went for something to eat then cleaned up the room before i locked it. I went down to Spencer’s office. He has been soo nice to me the whole time i was here. As for what i told him about mason the other day he said he wanted to approach the matter with caution seeing that he wasn’t the acting alpha. So for now he’s gathering whatever information he can to take the best approach.
I knocked on the door.
“Come in yolanda”
“Hi. grandpa.” I greeted him and cringed a bit at how awkward it sounded to call him grandpa. His face lit up as his head shot up to look at me clearly surprised at me calling him grandpa. He is now battling with himself to keep his tears in.
“ though ‘grandpa’ makes me feel old I don’t think I can get enough of it.” He sniffed with a little laugh, quickly wiping the tears that were about fall.
“I came to tell you-”
“ yea.. I know. Andel already told me. It’s okay, you come back whenever you feel like it but don’t stay away for too long okay” he said getting up and walking towards me hugging me tightly and I nodded.
“ okay.” Breaking the hug he hurriedly said.
“ I got you something.” He went around his desk and open a draw and pulled a key from it then handed it to me.
“ what’s this?”
“ it’s a car. I felt like it was wrong to give one to Andel only.”
“ but I can’t drive.” I exclaimed. excitement eating me up at having my first car but bummed because I can’t drive because I don’t have my license. Andel did his when I went back. He did a lot while I was away and I couldn’t help but noticed that he changed a bit..his facial features looks more matured, stern. He look exactly like dad they could pass for brothers, of course with dad being the older one.
“ don’t worry I already asked your parents permission so when you get back I’ll take you to get the written test done then the practical. I’ll send you a link to do practice tests.”
“Okay then” I squealed and Hugged him. He laughed and hugged me back.his laugh sounded out through the room.
“ alright, don’t keep your brother waiting, I’ll see you guys when you get back.”
“Okay bye. Oh I won’t be needing this. ” I turned and gave him the key to the car.
“ right, right. Tell your brother to drive safe.” He said just before I closed the door and I shouted back.
“ okayy.. thank you grandpa.”
I am grateful for my parents and grandma’s but damn, I can’t even imagine how much better it could’ve been to have at least one grandpa in our life who’s willing to do any and everything for you. I feel like I could talk to him so easily without even thinking too much about it. He seems much happier since we’re around and he laughs more according to grandma. I’ve heard before that grandparents connects with grandchildren on a deeper level. Whatever the case may be I just feel like my grandma’s were always more patient and understanding with me than my parents and now grandpa is trying to make up for lost times.
If not for the mess my life had turn to I would’ve felt so complete but I’m going to take care of that right now.
