He really would have kissed her if the girl didn't just call him an asshole!
He glared at her instead. Was the first kiss only precious to girls? What about him? That was his first one! It wasn't even a romantic kiss, it was a stolen one! She stole his first yet has the guts to call him names.
He really should teach her a lesson!
She surely is one hell of an ungrateful girl. After rescuing her from that old man, she still has the guts to call him that!
"Instead of taking responsibility, you are asking for something else. Aren't you the asshole? You were the one that stole from me. I didn't ask for it," Rowland retorted back.
"You…you…who is going to take responsibility for mine?"She burst out, her eyes filled with anger.
"Yours?," He asked, surprised.
"Yes, mine! My very own! Who is going to take responsibility for mine?" She asked again, this time glaring at him.
"Was…was that your first kiss too?" He asked smiling.
"What do you think? Of course, it was my first kiss! If I had a boyfriend, would I ask you to a fake one?" Cassy said, rolling her eyes.
Rowland looked at her shocked. Well, he wasn't too shocked. She wasn't a good kisser…just like himself.
Anyways, that makes two of them. Then why was she so fussy!
"Well, that makes two of us. No hard feelings. Let's just say we would take responsibility for each other from now on. What do you say?" Rowland said, feeling somewhat happy.
It means he was the first man in her life, right? But why was he happy?
"What…what do you mean?" Cassy asked, not understanding what he meant.
"I mean that we will take responsibility for each other from now on by…being boyfriend and girlfriend, for real," Rowland replied.
"For real?" Cassy asked again, wide-eyed.
"Yeah. For real," Rowland nodded looking at Cassy's eyes. Those eyes are so captivating.
"But…what about what you told my father about being the future Alpha?" Cassy asked in deep thought.
"What about it?" Rowland asked.
"I mean, what if my father found out you are ha Frederick's son?" Cassy asked.
"Am I not convincing enough?" Rowland asked with a raised brow.
"Of course, you are convincing but you know a secret cannot be kept long", Cassy said with a frown.
Rowland really wanted to knock that head off, but his time was already up and he was going to receive enough scolding from his father.
"Alright. When we get to that bridge, pretty, we will surely cross it. I need to leave now for trai… I mean I have to go and help my father with some stuff and I am running late already. Besides I don't want to get on my father's mis..my father's wife's bad side today," Rowland said, getting up from the grass.
He didn't want to leave her. There was something about her that gave him peace. Maybe it's because they share the same experience? Probably.
"Your father's wife? What about your mother?" Cassy asked.
"She died immediately after I was born. She only lived long enough to name me. My father's wife or rather the nannies in the house took care of me," Rowland explained as they started walking away from the pond.
"Oh! So you practically grew up with an evil stepmother? Well, mine is kinda similar to your experience, just that my father is the evil one," Cassy said looking gloomy.
Then she added," Since we are now boyfriend and girlfriend, let's meet here once every day once the sun sets."
"Alright. I will meet you tomorrow then, cupcake," Rowland said as he ruffled her hair.
"I am not…", Cassy wanted to correct him but he had already left in a hurry.
Cassy looked at the strange boy running very fast. He was surely fast. And there was something about that aura, she just couldn't grasp.
Who are you?
Cassy kept looking at the running boy till he disappeared. She wasn't interested in boys but she just felt drawn to them. Who exactly was he? Where does he stay?
He looked really sad, especially on the first day she met him. Maybe he had an evil stepmother.
Cassy sighed as she continued walking down the path leading to her house. She wished not to see her father but she had no choice. She has to go home.
There was a carnival in the next town in their Pack. Cassy had to go and find a job there. She was working night shifts in that notorious bar close to her street. But the money was not enough as her father always collects all that she earns. If she refuses, he beats her thoroughly.
If only her mother was still alive. The only person who was always by her side was Aunt Greta, her mother's sister. She worked as a Nanny at the Alpha's castle.
Her Aunt, Greta, had been working there when the Alpha lost his wife and was left with the baby. Though rumor had it that the alpha brought his mistress to cater to his son, it seems the mistress couldn't do anything so she hired nannies to do the work.
Aunt Greta and another woman were the ones that took care of the Alpha's son. One day, she hopes to visit the castle. It was very big and full of different trees and smaller buildings according to her aunt.
That means Cassy can go and visit her aunt at the servant's quarter without the guards throwing her out, right?
She would love to. Besides, she heard that the prince was very handsome and sexy! Ha! If only she could see him once!
Her boyfriend was handsome too, right? But why does it feel strange to call him her boyfriend?
A flash of his kiss earlier came running through her mind. Her face turned red and her heart began to race.
"What are you thinking, Cassy? You look red"
" Am thinking of the hot kiss I just had with …ahh!"
Cassy turned to see her Aunt grinning at her. Ha! Where is that damn hole! I need to bury myself!
