Chapter 3 - Who I am

"Even time can not stop our destiny, I was made a pair of you"

-------------

Like the back of her palm, the sound of her voice or the color of her own skin.

For some reasons she could recognize him as much as he could recognize her yet they were both strangers with strange familiarity.

It was not the first time the second or the third but the truth is.. she was not even sure of his real name.

Again standing at the end of the dock waiting with hope, no matter how long it takes she was willing to.

Her earnest wish was fulfilled by his appearance and the wide smile on her lips confirmed it.

He was here! her heart jumped with excitement.

" my love!.." she called him softly while smiling happily.

Without second thought she run into his embrace that made him stiffen a bit over her sudden hug, feeling her softness against his firm body.

Subconsciously he responded to her gesture and wrap his arms around her waist reciprocating her embrace in even tight hold that secured her petite body.

And she happily rest her head on his chest quietly listening to his fast beating heart.

" Katerina..."

After a moment of silence he called her affectionately while caressing her back gently.

His voice sounding so alluring to hear that she got lost in it.

It was him the man she had always been waiting for, now that he was so close to her she couldn't help feeling greedy for his affection, as her eyes met his green ones she had all the answers.

He was all she wanted despite having a lot of things in her possession,

slowly she reached out to him just as he reached out to her their face meeting right after the small distance got covered

giving access to the urgent call of their breathing that got exchange.

Exchanging turned their heart in erratic race that held them back.

Parting from each other's arms only then she noticed the change in him, he was not happy despite their union.

" what's wrong my love?"she asked after catching her breath.

looking at his sad face she reached out to touch his cheek tenderly seeming worried about him.

" why are you sad?" she asked softly after realizing his sad expression that had made everything look like a mirage, disappearing with each step closer towards it.

" because this isn't really happening...." He finally said but.

Then

" Catherine!!!...."

A loud voice was heard from behind her dividing her attention that it distracted her over what he was saying.

---------

Catherine's POV

" Catherine!!!..."

Mom's way of calling can be terribly annoying sometimes especially during moments like this.

Everything suddenly stopped and I flew my eyes open.

Apparently I was dreaming again sigh!

I drag my tired body out of the bed but still I could feel that dazzling moment with that hot guy.

It felt so real that I doubt my sleep, was it really a dream?.

" Katerina! we shall meet again soon!" Was his words that kept repeating in my mind ever since I woke up.

Well I have long stopped wondering about these strange dreams.

Nothing made sense in my world anyway, Tina said I was too celibate that my mind was creating these illusions like dreams.

However I know it wasn't the case but I couldn't argue with her after all she was more knowledgeable about our kind than I am.

Sigh!

" Catherine! why are you still standing there aren't you going to the office today?"Belinda asked looking at her dazed daughter, yet she didn't move.

receiving no response she became even more worried.

" What wrong with her did she have a bad dream?" she asked inwardly before shaking her out her dazed state.

-----

" Are you okay" mother asked with concern.

" huh!..." only then I realized that I was actually spacing out.

This was not good now I was even daydreaming.

" Ah no It nothing I'm fine I will go to the bathroom first" I said quickly then left her sight before she activates her detective mode.

It was another day, having been only a week after being chosen as the personal assistant of the president of Wood company.

I was feeling all energetic and in good mood, despite all the hurdles I was lucky to be recognized and promoted, I could not ask for more.

I arrived at the office early despite waking up a bit late than usual a credit to constant nagging of miss Watt.

My mood was good with the cool weather and a little sunshine just penetrating into my office.

But then...

Great! mood spoiler was suddenly in front of me, what does she want?.

Right after I took my seat on the small office of mine she started.

" miss Grand do you think you already own the company just because you work for the president!" Her irritating voice almost broke my drum that I was forced to slightly lean back.

"---"

Noticing my blank expression she explode in anger.

" Don't you dare deny it I know it was you! how dare you take the financial report without my permission, what do you want to achieve, since you don't know your place you will be fired just you wait!!" Madam Watt said loudly and angrily enough to attract attention.

I was tempted to say something but gave up on it plus she was my senior it wasn't wise to argue with her.

What report! I don't even understand what she was talking about but being in the company for three years now I knew better not to say anything at the moment.

The woman was vicious and had personal grudge against me that I don't know about.

Maybe because she thought I was a disgrace of their kind, since I failed the initiation test of energy during the hunter's ceremony four years ago, that made me out of place, I didn't fit anywhere... they said

I was different.

I was not the like of white clan ( warriors) I was not a blue ( the seers) I was not a black ( the Smiths) and I was not even a red ( the guardians).

I was just a weakling and useless of all our kind

yes! that is who I was! a useless weakling.
