Frizabelle
Wednesday - Morning
'Oh, I'm looking for Ceres Langford.'
I was snapped from my worried thoughts when I heard an unfamiliar guy's voice coming from the faculty area. Good thing I possessed wolf hearing through Lena's and immediately went to the faculty to check on Ceres. I know I shouldn't be paranoid but ever since I saw and almost lost her made me extremely worried over her well-being. Plus, I also wanted to know whoever owns that voice that she was talking to. But when I reached the faculty, there was no sign of the guy even the scent.
"Mate." I called for Ceres as I walked around the faculty to look for her. Good thing no one was here.
"MATE!" I almost shouted within the faculty.
"You know this is the faculty not a field." Ceres suddenly spoke behind me which made me gasped but then I hugged her tightly.
Ceres was indeed surprised by my sudden hug but I can't help it. I was too worried about her which made me almost cry as I held her tightly. Also, I don't trust the guy around her earlier but hearing her just chuckled over my reaction really made me pouted like an upset kid. Which I rarely - I meant, I don't do at all.
"Belle, I'm okay. I just send the guy outside the school ground and you must get going. You're going to be late to your next class." She reminded me with such loving care that made me sighed.
"After school, explain things to me." I pouted as I went back to the class though I didn't.
I just went to the unused garden to relax my nerves which were still on haywire. I spent my whole second class hours in there and for just another couple of minutes left, I went back to walking in the hallway since I had to go to the cafeteria because it was almost lunch time.
12:30nn – lunch break
I met my usual group and their eyes fixed on me but I just shrugged it off. I knew they could sense that I'm not in a good mood that's why I don't want any questions about it. I just ditched two classes since Ceres came in the picture. I knew it wasn't right to ditch classes but I just can't help it when I worried too much about my mate, Ceres. I worried too much because of what I just did to her and I feared that I would lose her anytime or to any random fellow who just suddenly showed up and started lurking around her shadows. With those thoughts alone, I can't seriously contain my anger along with Lena's.
"Chill, Mistress." Avery hushed, which made me glanced at her since nobody called me 'mistress' before.
"Mistress?" I asked with such a straight face as I didn't touch my food even though it's my favorite meal.
"Yes, since you're the mate of my master then you'll be my mistress." Avery said proudly that made me blushed a bit.
"I see..and since I'm your mistress, can you tell me about fallen rouge?" I asked which made her looked surprised at me but worried at the same time. It was like she wasn't sure if she was the right person to talk about it or not.
"I'm not sure if I am the right person who could explain them since even for me they were complicated to understand. They quickly evolve when their hunger for something or someone strikes...I think Master could explain them more clearly to you." Avery honestly replied to me though I can see that she was glancing at them with wary eyes. It seems like she was asking permission to tell me or something which I don't like it at all.
"What about you guys? Care to tell me something about it?" I sarcastically said but I was so damned seriously about my question to them which I knew they felt my intention. They didn't know what to say to me, so they kept their mouth shut.
"Seems like my pack were hiding something under my radar." I chuckled as I said it which I felt Avery's hand touched mine that made me smile at her. She was the only one who cared to answer me when I asked.
I finished drinking my chocolate mint before I stood up without eating anything. I patted Avery's shoulder then started walking away from our table and went to the locker area. I knew they were arguing about it to each other but I didn't bother to listen and just went on my way. I felt sorry for Avery to encounter my foul mood which I am almost about to lose my control over my temper now. The heat that came from my anger was something I can't just let go especially when it involves my mate.
"That's the thing I just can't stand off." I hissed to myself as I slammed myself to my locker when I reached it.
Actually, it was stupid of me to slammed my head to the locker. Good thing, I didn't bleed. Anger issue wasn't my thing but Ceres…argh! I can't argue with that. Ever since I've been a fool and bitched around her, I turned out to be really short tempered which I didn't like one bit but it's in me now. I have Ceres now and there would be times that it would occur.
"Oh, Ceres…what have you've done to me..." I thought while scanning my locker for my afternoon class.
When I got my things, I locked up the locker and then went strolling around the campus. I walked aimlessly not knowing where to go, I put on my headset and listened to some songs until I began to sing while I'm on my stroll. The song was entitled Biting My Tongue by The Veronicas.
I've been there biting my tongue
Tryna hold on to what I'm feeling
'Cause I know that it's safe in my head
You got my heart beating so loud
Wanna scream out my lips are silent
I'm sick of fighting it
I feel the rush rising up to the back of my throat
I can't hide
I can't get enough of the way that you're looking at me
With those eyes
I chuckled when I was singing this stanza of the song since it was the thing that happened to me when I did that to her. I was indeed feeling the already when she came into our house but my pride was getting me tied-tongue.
I really wanna say this
I don't wanna lose this thing that we got
I'm just telling you how I feel
'Cause if you walk away and I don't get to say it
I don't know what would I, what would I, what would I do?
I can't live without you
Indeed, I really don't want to lose what I am feeling toward Ceres since she was the only one who didn't leave me even though I pushed her away so hard. Through those pushes that I did, I realized more that I didn't want to lose her for the rest of my life. I don't want that to happen since it scares me big time.
I was lost in my thoughts as I let those songs play through my headset till my head bumped into someone's cold body. Wait, what?!
"Oh, sorry about that." I apologized immediately then moved quickly away from that person but it suddenly held me firmly.
I gasped on how cold his hands around my arms but that shock turned to glare. The guy that was holding my arms was not hurting me but he was indeed gorgeous with kissable lips that really stands out from his pale features and his scent was no mistake that he was a vampire. But also a different one. He was like her, Ceres.
"You smelled like her." He suddenly said with his alluring voice that made Lena growl that made me realize that he was referring to my mate.
"Her? I am me, so don't compare me to someone you've known." I said with a pissed tone on my voice that made him chuckle – he's kinda cute when he laughs innocently. Then, he let go of my arms.
"I can't believe it. She has her scent all over you and you can't deny that you were her soul mate but still not official on your part." He chuckled when he said that. I might have blushed over his comment but it was more on anger issues that were rising within me.
"What h–!" I was about to say something when her irritating scent suddenly surrounded my nostril.
"Asking for me?" Ceres asked straight to the guy in front of me. The scene looked like I was in the third wheel since I was in between them; looking confused.
"I got your message from my slave but I didn't expect to meet your mate at this school. I mean, are you even for real? Student and teacher weren't good one." He said while looking firmly to Ceres that really pissed me off even more. I can feel that there was something between their familiarities' looks in their eyes.
"Then what's the difference from 500 years old to a 108 years old like you?" Ceres asked with her smirking face to the guy that made me think 'that's my girl!'
From that thought, Ceres glanced at me with her sly smile. She's flirting with me which made me just roll my eyes since I don't want to blush here.
"Heh, you've got me. Anyway, I'm just here to warn you. My parents were looking for you." The guy said as he raised his both hands in surrender to Ceres.
"Don't worry I'm not running away from them." Ceres told him with such conviction which I love about her.
"Even so, I cared for you and I always will. You know I loved you but I knew you could never be mine and since my parents learned about it they thought you're mine and they will do whatever they want for me –" he tried to reason that only made Ceres laugh and looked at him in a different way.
I was shocked seeing her eyes easily turned into bloodlust monsters that I never knew she could control and it made the guy shivered in fear. I felt them too since those eyes were the eyes of a haunting monster in one dream that was indeed dangerous to dream of. But believe me when I said that it sent something else within me like I suddenly felt a little tingle of heat somewhere within me. I admitted that I love those eyes of hers.
"Then they don't know who they're dealing with." Ceres chuckled which made me snapped from my daydream as I felt that there was something she's not letting me know.
"I'm sorry, but the fallen rogue only followed orders from my parents and I only have one that you've met earlier. Seriously, I just wanted to warn you even though I knew the risk was my head on their plates. You know my life with them, Ceres. I was a human when I met you at that bar then that night I was turned and the only person I wanted to meet was you. I'm sorry, if I put you in this situation now." the guy sincerely apologized to her but Ceres was something else.
"Vincent, like I told you before you can leave them like Avery did. Don't be a coward around them. They don't even treat you right." Ceres sighed then smiled calmly at the Vincent guy then patted his shoulder.
"Then turn me into yours." Vincent pleaded with his tearful eyes.
This Vincent guy, I really don't trust him for now, I guess? Ceres chuckled which I sighed since I can tell that she heard my thoughts once again.
"That can be arranged but first, the mess must be cleaned up then stay with Avery." Ceres told him that he agreed to before he went off looking for Avery.
Seriously, those conversations really made my mind spin. She's not telling me anything about these things. I hate it which made me shoot a glaring dagger at her.
"MATE, KINDLY EXPLAIN THINGS TO ME NOW OR ELSE I WON"T BE CALLING YOU MATE ANYMORE!" I madly asked her through our link which only made her laugh. I really hate this side of her.
'I'm going to turn him like what I did to Avery and I'll kill his master like I did to Avery's master. Both their masters were rogues and they were close to being a fallen. I don't want Avery and Vincent to experience being a fallen rogue. I want to give them a place they could call home. Plus, I've got the feeling that Avery and Vincent will be mates or with Nate?'
"That will be cool." I laughed at her thought as we both went back inside the school since it's my music class with her as my professor.
Ceres
This was not good at all. I'll bring trouble to the Frizabelle's pack but what else could I do? I can stay away anymore from my mate who happened to be the Alpha's daughter. Not to mention that I am hiding something to them - her. Well, her mother knew about them already, that's why she spared my life on the night I came into their land aside from me being a broken soul.
Err! My life was so complicated than before. Now Vincent was here, I am sure the next was a bloodbath again. They were using Vincent, my ex-fiancé, to lure my bloodthirsty vampire that I hid from a very long time ago until Frizabelle happened.
Unable to sustain my hunger for blood was making me the worst nightmare for everyone who set their eyes on me but I wondered why Frizabelle wasn't affected by it. Is it because she was my mate or she's feeling something more than that?
Anyway, I must be clean to my mate step by step since if I don't do that, it would be a mess. The pack would always be in danger if things won't be explained and Frizabelle would always be on the edge of ripping me into pieces if things were not crystal clear to her.
