Eighteen

~Isabelle~

I was glad that Kyle was sensible enough to give me some space throughout the night or maybe, he was occupied with Alpha paper works that he actually forgot that he had gotten his mate, I was reluctant about stepping out of the room, I just wanted to stay here for a long time as it was becoming my new comfort zone but I did not want to appear as a lazy Luna although I have not been coronated as one.

I was still deep in my thoughts when I heard the gentle knock on the door. From the scent, I knew that it was not Kyle, it was a girl, maybe, one of the omegas had decided to bring my breakfast to my room or it was someone else.

I slowly opened the door to find Kaylee with a breakfast tray and a smile on her face, it was so contagious that I had to mirror her expression, although, I found the kind gesture suspicious but I knew that she would not dare to poison me in my own pack, not when Alpha Kyle had put her on probation, maybe, that was the reason for her nice acts.

I stepped outside for her to walk in, ‘’Good Morning, Luna Isabelle.’’

It was so weird for her to greet me.

I scrunched my brows at her in a confusion with a cheek smile, ‘’Morning to you, too.’’

I was not the Luna yet; I was just Alpha's mate.

I could not hold it back any longer, I was forced to ask, I mean, it was unlike to serve people, she was an Alpha’s daughter as well and I was sure that she liked being treated like a princess that must have been the reason for her obsession for Kyle.

By now, she was supposed to be in her bed, either sleeping, watching Netflix or pressing her phone.

‘’Why are you staring at me like that?’’ She questioned with the smile still on her face.

‘’I am still wondering if I am in a dream.’’ I replied.

Maybe, if I pinch myself, I might just wake up to find the bitchy Kaylee.

She giggled before explaining herself, ‘’I know, it is a bit sudden but come on, there is nothing wrong serving you after all, you are the Luna and I do not want Kyle to be mad at me.’’

My mouth formed into an O shape, ‘’I see, that is why, it is because of him.’’

She instantly corrected me, ‘’That is not true actually, throughout last night, I could not sleep properly, I realised that I have been a horrible person to you and your best friend, even Kyle. I have known him all my life and it just hurts to know that the goddess was unfair to me by giving him someone else as a mate but at the same time, I truly care about his happiness and if I lies in you, I do not have a problem with it.’’

This was not really happening; I was surely hallucinating.

‘’And no, you are not hallucinating because it is actually happening, I do not really see the point of dragging what is not mine, who knows my mate might be a lot better than Kyle, it is just the fear of not finding a perfect guy like Kyle that made me possessive, the goddess might punish me even more by cursing me or killing me, I do not want that.’’ She added.

I was a bit touched by her words and sincerity was evident in the tone that she used to speak.

I just prayed that she was not pretending and she had changed for real.

‘’It is hard to believe though, I mean, yesterday, you almost killed me and today, you have turned a new leaf.’’ I asserted.

She let out a deep sigh before pleading, ‘’I know that I messed up badly and I am not expecting you to forgive me immediately, I just want you to at least, give me a second chance so I can set things straight, I would not have anywhere to go if Kyle kicks me out, I also want to beg you to help me talk to him, I do not want him to hate me, I am not that much of a bad person.’’

‘’Getting Kyle to forgive you is like getting water of a rock, nearly impossible.’’ I remarked.

‘’I know, maybe, if he sees the change in me, he might soften his heart towards me.’’ She told her and I could not help but agree with her.

She gently dropped my breakfast in my bed before opening her arms for me to walk in and hug her.

Sometimes, the best thing to do is to forgive and forget, learn your mistakes and try not to repeat such in the future.

‘’I was so caught up in my apology that I could ask you, how you were faring.’’ She stated.

I flashed her a weak smile, ‘’I am feeling better now, I never knew that the healing ability was super-fast, with this, I would never have to go the doctor.’’

She shook her head and chuckle, ‘’We still have use for pack doctors, sometimes, the injuries might be beyond our powers and we would need him to administer medications.’’

I had a lot to learn about this new world of mine, Kyle would have been in the best position to tell me but I did not want to bug him with my silly questions.

Maybe, Kaylee would put me through since she was less busy like me.

‘’Don’t worry, very soon, you will get used to being a werewolf.’’

That comment of hers made me sad and a tear nearly escaped my eyes if I had not fought the urge, the realisation of not being with Carly or being unable to share some secrets about my relationship or her even visiting for sleep overs were sickening, very soon, she would demand questions, if I was unable to provide logical explanations, she would leave me because I was too crazy to understand.

Aside from that, I did not want my wolf to take over and kill her or eat her.

Just when I was about to wash my face, so nobody would notice the burning eyes, he walked into the room with furry eyes diverted to Kaylee.

I did not have time for this at all.
