Chapter 35

Late

SKYLA.

I can’t get my head around it.

He thought I was the one attacking and killing people?

Like actually fucking seriously?

No wonder he’s always been observing my eyes whenever they changed.

Plum… just like the death noodles.

That day when he had said, out in the woods, I had turned and just left. Although he had tried to call out to me, I refused to listen…

(FLASHBACK)

“I didn’t mean it like that. I’m sorry.” Royce says, closing his eyes for a moment as he exhales.

Sorry?

“Sorry doesn’t cover you thinking I’m a killer, yes I can’t control my Lycan, but I’m no killer. I…” I trail off, feeling as if I’ve been punched in the gut.

I have almost killed someone… If Kat didn’t stop me…

I can’t blame him for thinking that….

“I’m just in a habit of over analysing everything and I’m not saying you but your “My Lycan is a part of me.” I cut in, “Look, I’m fine, I’m tired and without clothes, I don’t really want to head back to school, I’m going home.”

I don’t wait for an answer, breaking into a run, mind linking Kat, I ask if she can drop Malevolent off to me after school…

Sorry Malevolent, I can’t stay here right now. I don’t mean to abandon you…

(END OF FLASHBACK)

I just needed space.

Rolling onto my back, I stare at the wooden ceiling of the cottage.

I am glad it’s the weekend, and I had switched my phone off and just stayed in bed.

Kat was the only one who had stopped by to drop Malevolent, and she had stayed, made dinner and we even watched a movie, but even she was going to be gone with Leo and Azura who were going to come to collect her on Monday.

Well, I know for a fact Aleric stopped by, but I didn’t want to see him for now, either.

He sure was fucking determined and had stayed outside for a while.

He’s Reign, I’m still trying to process that.

But a part of me feels fucking awful. How do I explain the almost hook-up at the club, or the fact that I fucked him without knowing who he was?

Ugh, I fucked up.
