Chapter 67: Chapter 67

Kaya’s POV

I froze in place when I saw Azian before me. I had been expecting him but not this early, I still had about 2 to 3 hours before midnight.

For some reason my hands were trembling and I suddenly felt the temperature drop, as I looked up at him nervously...

This wasn't a dream anymore, we had established that and it made more self-conscious, my cheeks heated up remembering everything that we shared in this room, everything that we had done under the pretense of a dream.

I was expecting his usual expression but I was met with a hard glare instead causing me to wipe the nervous shallow grin on my face instead noticing how lost he looked.

He looked at the bed slowly, and for a moment I swear he was sniffing the place his expression hardening when his eyes landed on the bed, studying it for a second.

Could he-Did he smell legion? I mean we had already changed the sheets, but I was now pretty sure he wasn't human so that means maybe somehow he could still sense Legion? Or not.. I mean- my thoughts were cut short when he suddenly stomped towards me and I felt myself involuntary moving back till I heat the dressing table on my left wall.

Not that I was scared of him or anything but I felt very small all of a sudden, more like he was suffocating me with his presence.

I also felt very guilty deep within me, guilty for what? I should have felt guilty days ago, kissing my step sister’s boyfriend. But no, the guilty feeling decided to surface now.

He tugged on to my pink fluffy pajama pulling me closer to him as he caged me beneath him. I couldn't look at him for some reason my eyes were fixed on his shirt and my hands were pushing against his chest as he over me.

He took a deep breath in but I didn't feel him breath out, "Legion" he said.

The word sent a shiver down my back and I lowered my eyes even lower failing to speak.. I should just tell him, tell him of what happened. Right? There was no reason to hide anything.

There was nothing going on between us...right...right?

Instead of replying I ended up panting harshly like a dog.

"Kaya,” his voice had a certain warning to it, a certain daring tone, but I refused to look up my hands tightening around his shirt.

He breathed out and his voice was creepy calm when suddenly he whispered right by my ear, "why. Was. Legion. Here Kaya." It was a question that I knew but he said it in more of a statement.

There was no way I could lie to him, could I? Why did I feel like lying?

"Don't even think about Lying, you smell like him" his voice turned to that of disgust, he brought my chin towards him and I gasped when I saw the gold swarming in his eyes, "Tell me" he ordered, his jaw was right and his eyes were not kind.

"Yes, he came, he was here" I didn't know why my voice sounded so small and I swallowed hard but I couldn't look away from him it's like I was spell bound.

"Why was he here, Kaya?" again with the questions that sounded like orders.

Why did he need to know? He didn't own me? I should be the one asking questions, he should be the one explaining and not me.

"He saved me, that's why Azian. He saved me and he got hurt that's why he was here," I replied firmly with a certain fire inside me.

His eyes hardened, "saved you from what? What happened?!" He demanded urgently like it would cost him his life.

I scoffed feeling quite uncomfortable in our current position but I couldn't get out of it, "I was almost taken by some thugs and he was there to save me, he...” I trailed off wondering if I should tell him about legion being a lycans, would he think I'm crazy? But no... He definitely was also not human. No human could make the earth shake or have such bright golden eyes, so I decided to test the theory, "he then turned into a Lycan and he saved me, he made sure they wouldn't hurt me or anyone else again, but he got hurt, so I had to clean his wound, but turns out he could heal so that was that" I finished watching his expression. He didn't even bat an eye lid when I told him Legion had turned into a ten foot beast he only gritted his teeth in annoyance.

"There's nothing else?" He asked solemnly and my eyes widened in surprise, "should there be?" I asked trying to drown the thought of telling him.

Yeah, he is also my mate.

Something deep inside told me to shut my mouth. Instead I pushed him back since he seemed deep in thought and other questions plundered my mind as I walked in the direction of the balcony door, closing it softly, I paused when Azian spoke.

"I'm sorry" he apologized, I turned around in confusion, surprised about his current state, he looked very guilty and very pitiful at the moment, "I should have been there to protect you, but felt the burn I should have known but I didn't understand it" he said his eyes were deep and sorrowful.

I was confused on the other hand, "you should have been there? Azian how could you have possibly known I was in danger?” I huffed folding my arms, "I tell you about Legion being a-a Lycan and you don't even bat an eyelid, you're not human either are you?" I asked.

The question seemed to catch him off guard as if he hadn't expected me to be so direct, but I had had enough surprises for one night I just wanted to know the truth, the real truth.

His squinted his eyes scratching the back side of his neck as if looking for a lie.

The bastard was looking for a lie! I deserved to know the truth! I had been through enough for one good day, screw that I had enough of this whole year.

"Don't you dare lie to me" I snarled pointing at him with my hairbrush, I must have looked like a preschool teacher scolding a toddler because that's how I felt and that's how he looked at the moment.

He took a deep breath staring at me right into my eyes, "no I'm not Kaya,” he said firmly and my eyes softened, "don't ask me what I am.. I can't tell you" he finished sitting at the edge of my bed, "come" he beckoned.

I shook my head, I felt strange to be close to him after knowing I had a mate. Even though I didn't really understand it much, it seemed wrong to be near Azian when I was just with Legion and also the fact that AZIAN WAS DATING MY STEP SISTER AND THIS WA A NO LONGER A DREAM.

This seemed to irritate him, "you let legion touch you but not me kaya?" He asked gritting his teeth.

The statement took me off guard, I was not expecting him to be so direct, "I won't say anything else if you're not near me" he stated

"No, you promised me answers! And no you cannot be near me, your dating my sister Khloe!" I spat.

He didn't respond only looked at me questionably.

Khloe?

Azian was not human and he spent his time with no other girl than Khloe. Just like legion had with me. Khloe. Was Khloe his mate?

I suddenly felt as if someone had gotten one long ass sword and stabbed it directly into my heart. The thought stung like it had just been said straight to my face.

My fingers shivered as I took one look at him, my eyes must have been red because his eyebrows suddenly arched and concern spread across his face, "Ka-"

"Is Khloe your mate?" I whispered, I felt choked and suffocated all of a sudden, his expression didn't help at all as a look of surprise, bewilderment, anger and sadness morphed together.

He was speechless and stared at me in shock, I didn't know what came over at that moment but I stomped toward where he was seated and grabbed him by the shirt.

I'm a psychopath, or I must have been in my previous life. "Tell me!" I screeched, "Is Khloe your mate?" I asked my fingers ached underneath the hold as Azian held my stare, "don't lie" I whispered lowly.

"Yes" he finally said more like a question than a statement but it was still an answer, a very painful one.

Anger bubbled deep within me, anger from every little thing that happened ever since I had the displeasure of meeting him for the first time, "then why?" I asked urgently, "why did you kiss me? Why did you taunt me like this? Why do you visit me at night but ignore me completely during the day? Why do you kiss me and tell me you want to keep me? Why are you here Azian? Why are you possessive of me?” tears were rolling down my face, my hair bounced up and down my shoulders and he let me shake him only looking at me in both shock, sadness and irritation.

"If Khloe’s y-your mate, then what a-am I?" I whimpered. I wanted to be something to him, I wanted to mean something, but I was confused. The thought of knowing he was destined to be with someone else and that being Khloe above all people killed me.

What had been his end game? What had been his motive of playing me against myself, "tell? Me." I ordered shutting my eyes, my mind replaying every little moment we had together, his face, his sad face flashed into my mind, his tired eyes from the first time we spent the night together.

His tired eyes when he asked me to let him in. How he suddenly looked better, every night we spent together.

My eyes fluttered open meeting his soft golden eyes and my face morphed into disgust as something quite unlikely hit me, he needed me for something, the night I had sent him away he begged me to be near him. What if he needed to be close to me for another reason?

I stepped back from his hold but he pulled me back as if he could read my face and his mind morphed into horror, "don't think like that, it's not true" he warned coldly.

Could he read my mind?

"Then what is?" I asked, "What am I to you Azian?"

But he didn't reply..."you're somehow using me you sick bastard!" I replied pulling away from him, he stood up suddenly scooping me into his arms and I fought to be away,

"Relax Kaya you're making us angry" he eased his eyes flashing colors but who the hell cared if he got angry? I was angry!

"You stupid boy!" I replied anger flashing through me, tears flowed freely down my cheeks and then he did something only a stupid boy would do. He kissed me longingly his arms wrapped around me caging me in and for a moment the fire within me seemed to dim while the desire burned loudly within. His lips attacked my in frustration, his hands dug into my waist as if begging for mercy.

He was supposed to be mine. The thought sounded deep within me but another was louder, but he isn't.

And you're not either.

I pulled myself away from him breathing heavily and he did the same his eyes had turned over in lust and he stomped towards me in frustration tugging my shirt towards him, "ugh Kaya, " he groaned licking his lips, "you're everything to me"

The lie bounced of my ears and he in return received a slap, one huge one smack across his right cheek, as my tears brimmed, ignoring the stinging sensation it had left on my hand.

He looked at me in a sudden shock as he stared at me failing to register what had just happened, his deep blue icy eyes suddenly resurfacing.

"L-leave Azian, p-please" I pleaded, I didn't want to think at the moment I just wanted to curl in bed and sleep.

He looked at me for a second before silently nodding, in a second he had disappeared and I turned my head the other way as tears flowed freely.

"Whoa" Ally whispered coming out from the bathroom, "that's was intense."
