Chapter 13
CHAPTER 13 I ate my breakfast without talking much to anyone. My mind was occupied with thoughts from last night, what Aiden and I had almost done and the position in which we fell asleep. Everyone finished their breakfast and one by one they headed from the table. Marie said she’d come looking for me later to show me the surprise she had planned. I pushed my chair back and got up, Alden followed suit and stood in front of me, blocking my way. “We need to talk.” I prepared myself for a lecture about not speaking what had happened. He didn’t have to worry about it. Aiden grabbed my arm and we headed around the back and into and or private room. He closed the door and spun me around. v fort “Did you their things?” He asked me and narrowed his eyes on just looking into mine, they were searching for something, for the turth that ine. I froze, his ine. I froze, already knew. is eves weren’t “What?” “I heard what Melina said, tell me the truth.” He said angrily and leaned his head down. “No.” I said with confidence. Aidens eyes turned yellow, his wolf was present. “The truth.” He growled and stepped closer. I gulped and started fidgeting with my fingers. “I am,” i said quietly. Telling Aiden that I had paid thousands of dollar wouldn’t amount to any good and I honestly didn’t know why he even cared. I paid for them, it was my mistake and I learnt a valuble lesson. “One last warning and then I leave and you will be responsible for how the truth comes out.” My breath was caught in my throat and my eyes fluttered. Everyone already hated my guts, having
Aiden go out there and cause something would surely make it worse. I didn’t care about what they thought of me but I was stuck here and would at least like to keep it as peaceful as possible. “I paid but it’s fine. I had the money and wanted to do something nice.” I said and shrugged my shoulders. widened my eyes and shook my head.. “Happy?” I asked. He didn’t answer but turned around and stormed out. I sighed and hoped that he bought the lie. I didn’t hold a grudge towards those girls and I didn’t want anyones interference messing it up. Besides, they were his friends so he couldn’t honestly be mad at them for treating me like shit knowing who Sam was to Aiden The man was about to f*ck his girlfriend on our Ш O 1/5 GND CHAPTER 13 wedding night. Just the thought of it made me sick but also made realize what f*cking hell I was actually living. I went outside and walked around in the garden. Marie came out an hour later and found me sitting on the rocky little stream that went across the end of the garden. “Hey, there,” she said and sat down next to me. “Hi,” “Are you ready for your surprise?” she said as her eyes lit up with e tment. “Sure thing,” I wasn’t, I didn’t like surprises and didn’t feel like pretending to have a good time but she had been so kind too me. We got up and walked back into the pack house. As we passed the gaming room and kitchen I heard a familiar voice and turned too see Sam and Melina standing by the pool table. We passed them quickly enough but I wasn’t looking forward to having every party later. We went around the staircase and into the back room. As Marie open very own atalje. There were
blank canvases leaning against the wall in differ m gathered here before the the door I gasped. It was her t sizes. Finished paintings adored the walls and on tables. Paint on trays and a different colors than I had ever seen in paint bottles beautifully placed here and there. It was a complete mess with brushes laying all over the tables and cloths hanging from the canvases, it was beautiful. As opposed to everything else in this house that carefully placed and color coordinated, clean at all times and followed the same patterns this was like a fresh breath of air. Marie didn’t speak, she put a canvas on wedges and brought out a little table from the corner. On t other side of the wedges she put up another one for herself and brought all he different colors and place them on the bigger table. Two trays, brushes and everything we would need. “Have fun,” she said and went to stand on the other side. I could see how her focus shifted, she was. taking in the blank canvas as she poured four different colors on the tray. She dipped her brush and gently stroked it over the white surface. Butterflies were waking up within me and I felt them fluttering around in my stomach. I picked up a thicker brush and looked at all of the paints. When I started painting it felt like something was coming back to me, I suddenly felt less lost, something familiar warmed me as I stroked the brush over the surface. Back home at my own pack I never ejoyed the panting as much as I did now becuase my mother would always peak over my shoulder and point out the mistakes. If it wasn’t perfect, it wasn’t done. This was a completely different feeling, I was painting from my heart with no expectations. “You’re very talented,” Marie said over my shoulder and I hadn’t even noticed her standing there. “Who’s the girl?” She asked. I had painted a girl, sitting on a rock and looking out over a city. 2/5 GD CHAPTER 13
“Just a girl,” I said and stepped back from my painting. looks lonely,” Marie said. I tiled my head to the side and smiled at the painting. “She looks free,” I hadn’t thought about the words before I spoke them and regretted them right away. I turned my head to correct myself but she raised her hand and held it up in fron of my face. “Don’t you dare apologize, you were honest just now, that’s good. This can’t have been easy and it will take time to adjust to this new life but I will do everything in my power to make the adjustments as painless as possible for you,” “if only you knew I thought in my head. I heard a loud scream and someone else shouting throughout the e re the house. Followed by laughs and overly loud chatter. My first reaction was to get the f*ck out of here. “Sounds like the pre-party is starting. Why don’t you go to your room and wash off and I’ll show you around town,” Perfect. I nodded my head and hurried up to the room, I w d past a few people but pretended to not see them. They were blasting the music and it bounced against the walls but the cond I closed the door to the bedroom, the silence overshadowed everything else. out. I heaved a breath and went into the bathroom to clean myself up before left. The door opened and I held my breath, I shut the water of and dried my hands. . Sam going through a drawer. I couldn’t hide in the bathroom so I stepped out and saw “Well look who it is, the girls were really happy about the shopping trip,” She said and pushed her “I’m glad i could help,” I said and dug in the closet for some clothes. “How are you adjusting to things?” She asked and flicked her tongue. “Made any friends yet?” She asked when I didn’t answer her. “None of your business.” I said and faced her. Sam stepped closer. “A little birdie told me you’ve been hanging with Cassy, it makes sense. Scum finds scum,” “And self absorbed slut bags with no reedeming qualities, find you,” I said and smiled at her. Sams smile faded, her eyes narrowed to slits and if looks could kill, I’d be dead. “You little” the door opened up as Sam stepped closer and Aiden walked inside with Cole.
“Catfight!” Cole said and leaned against the wall, rubbing his hands together. The people here were disgusting. O 3/5 Tue, May CHAPTER 13 “What’s going on?” Aiden asked as he stepped inside the room. “Just talking too our newest addition,” Sam said and I looked at her with boredom. 50% She turned around and placed her hand on his chest, my eyes imidietly went there and watched as her hand slid down. Aiden grabbed it when she got to his navel and held it still. “Did you find my wallet?” Aiden asked and looked at her but I didn’t see any love or happiness of any kind in his eyes. “No, maybe your wife stole it,” She spat. “Right, because I don’t have any money of my own,” I said and rolled my eyes. “You have a real attitude you know that?” Aiden said and glared at m Was he for real? “Oh look, cat’s got her tongue,” Sam said and laughed menacingly. Aiden walked to the bedside table and pulled open a drawer, he picke de table and pulled open a drawer, he picke out his wallet and placed it in his jeans. “Leave.” He said and looked at Sam and Cole, both of them were befuddled. “But baby-” “I said leave.” He growled. The door was slammed shut after Sam and Aiden turned to give me a g Cole’s was more amused than angry however. Aiden turned toward me, I couldn’t read his face and his mood switched too much for me to get an actual handle on how he worked. “Aiden,”
“You need to watch yourself.” He said as he stepped toward me. I furrowed my brows and looked at him in shock. “I need to watch myself? What about that two faced bitch who’s constantly on my tail about-” Aidens hand wrapped around my throat, shutting me up. He squeezed enough for me to be silent but where i could still breath. His hand came up to my waist and he pushed us back against the wall. “I don’t care. She has a following, you do not. You either need to learn to fight as dirty as she does or you need to watch yourself-” He said and parted his lips. His head leaned down and his eyes flicked to my lips. “- And I know you won’t fight dirty, you don’t have it in you. So ignore her, keep out of her way and stay quiet,” | 4/5 CHAPTER 13 50% “Do you understand?” He asked quietly. I was so d*mn sick of men telling me to be quiet and watch myself. His hand loosened but his grip around my waist got harder and his fingers dug into my skin. I nodded my head and pressed my lips together but I was pissed. “In words.” He whispered and brushed his lips asgint mine. My body tingled but the heat I felt wasn’t from an urge, it was from the anger I felt stirring within me. I was sick of men telling me to be quiet and watch myself. “Yes.” I said and bit my tongue, clenched my jaw and narrowed my es. Aidens eyes swirled with a golden hue and his fingers were still around my throat but now it was like they were resting there. He pressed his lips gently against mine as they parted and blew out a soft breath. “Good girl.” He said and stepped back. His hand squeezed my waist last time as he turned around and walked out of the room. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
