THE COLD FEMALE: EPISODE 8

#Ara’s POV

I woke up with a little headache. I groaned and sat up remembering my funny dream. I laughed to myself

Arabel, you are crazy thinking he’s werewolf. They don’t exist

‘Hey’ I jolted my head to the direction of the voice. Wait a minute. I’m on my bed, he’s here…which means it wasn’t a d…d…d…I passed out again

#Cyrus ‘s POV

The good thing is that she didn’t freak out I’m a screaming way or called me a monster

‘How is it good? She woke up four times and fainted immediately she saw you’ Cyril said scoffingly

‘There’s still hope’ I assured him

‘If I get rejected, it’s your fault’

‘You get rejected? What happened to we? And how is it my fault?!’

‘First it was that stupid joke, then it was the kiss and you sealed it by dragging me here to review our secret. You are an animal!’

‘Ironic’ I murmured out loud. Sh sighed softly in her sleep

‘Okay Ara, you are going to wake up and you won’t faint if he’s there’ she motivated herself. She opened her eyes to meet mine

‘Please don’t faint!’ I said when her eyes started closing

‘I’m not fainting, just closing my eyes’ she murmured

‘I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have walked in here and showed it to you like that. I should have explained first’ I apologized. She chuckled

‘If Kevin was here, he would scream excitedly and demand you turn him into one too’ she sat up and opened her eyes

‘Who’s Kevin?’

‘My brother, I have two of them’ she smiled

‘Oh’ I murmured. ‘See! She’s taking it lightly’ I told Cyril

‘Shut up, lightly isn’t rejection’ he scorned. Stupid wolf

‘What’s his name?’ She asked curiously

‘Who?’

‘Your wolf. I’ve watched and read some books about werewolves all thanks to Kev. They can communicate with their wolves and sometimes they have names’

‘Cyril’

‘Cyrus and Cyril, nice match’ she was forcing herself to smile. ‘So am I like your mate or what?’

‘You are’

‘That will explain the scent and unusual attraction. Do you belong to any pack house?’

‘I’m an Alpha’ I said calmly.

‘Alpha! As in King?!’ I nodded. ‘And Mindy?’

‘She is too, she left after she married Chris also a werewolf from another pack. He’s sort of the omega Prince of his pack’ She laughed sarcastically

‘First it was ice, then my mother, followed by Jena and Raquelia and now a werewolf is my destined husband and not just any werewolf, a f****** Alpha….what else life!’

What is she saying?

‘Now I’m completely gone deep into this supernatural s***. What now? Because if you think I will just let a total stranger mark or “mate” with me, then think again’ she said churlishly. ‘I need time to process this, can you leave my house?’

‘But….’

‘Please!’ She snapped

‘See! I told you. She just indirectly rejected us’ I ignored him and stood up

‘If you ever need me, please give me a call’ I said sadly dropping the paper I already wrote my number in. I was expecting it but it still hurt badly. ‘For the record, please try not to make your house a giant freezer, it’s not good for your health’ she rolled her eyes. I sighed and turned but turn back. ‘Are you going to reject me?’

‘What?’

‘Reject the mate bond?’ I asked poutingly. She smiled a little

‘Believe when I say this not the first blow life have given to me. For now I just need time to process it but I won’t reject you. You’re way too hot to reject’

‘I did it!’ Cyril exclaimed. I rolled my eyes mentally. After saying trash, he’s taking the victory

‘Thank you’ she smiled back. I pressed my hands on the bed and leaned closer to her face. She groaned

‘Stop making the processing hard’ she complained. ‘No kisses, just get out’ she said coldly. I whimpered and stood up straight

‘Bye Ara’

‘Not forever’ she muttered

#Ara’s POV

Honestly, I didn’t want him to leave but I was afraid I will pass out again. It wasn’t easy acting like a strong girl in front of a werewolf. Who else is registering that?! He left and I finally felt relief. Ama felt better now since that was days ago

I sent them a text in our group chat

“Lee children meeting at my place tomorrow, 3pm. Who miss it will die by my hands and no outsider. I’m talking to you sisters”

I dropped my phone and sighed. What a day

#Next_Day

I went to the door and opened it. Bevin walked in blabbing about a serious problem followed by quiet Vevin. We still haven’t settled our differences

‘There is a serious problem that needs your solving’ she continued

‘Vevin, how have you been?’ I asked shutting the door. She nodded. She was going to cry. ‘How’s the heartbreak? Still healing?’

‘That demon started dating another girl five days after our breakup’ she said tearily.

‘Vevin, as your eldest sister who loves you with everything she’s got, it is my duty to protect you and your siblings. I can’t sit back and allow you make a mistake that will ruin our family, I know I handled it a little bit too harshly but I don’t regret it. He would have just hurt you more’

‘I know’

‘You are softhearted Vevin and that’s why taking extra care of you and Iso is my priority. Please forgive me. This head can be empty when it cones to protecting you’ I apologized. She smiled

Vevin is my favourite among the quad followed by Kevin

‘I’m glad you forced me to dumped him or dumps him for me because I got to meet him again’

‘Who?’

‘Did we come here to watch you guys kiss?’ Iso asked from the door. I chuckled. ‘Hi sis’

‘Hold on, who’s be?’

‘Blake’s younger brother. Remember he was my first everything before we broke up for a reason we still can’t pinpoint. We met again, talked, became friends and…’

‘Then they realized they still love each other and now she won’t let me sleep in peace with her endless night chatting, video sex and stupid blabbing’ Bevin completed

‘That is not true! She’s lying’ Vevin said distraughtly. Bevin snorted

‘Should I vet the evidence?’

‘At least I don’t bring my boyfriend into my parents house when they are not around and scream the building to it foundation’ Vevin said sarcastically

‘Here we go again’ Ama sighed. I smiled. She still look pale.

‘My baby’ I chirped. I went to hug her

‘I came here first but she gets the hug? No fair!’ Is whined. ‘And what is this! Are you trying to turn us to frozen turkeys?!’ She ranted. ‘And look at this place! When last did you open the curtains?’ She added again

‘I will open them’ Vevin went to open them glaring at Bevin

‘Please go sit’ the rest went to sit but Iso was still blabbing about this and that. ‘Where’s the boys?’

‘In the car’

‘Why?’

‘Devin is begging Kevin to come down. That as the problem I was going to talk about’ Bevin shouted heading to the kitchen

‘Vevin?’ Ama asked confusedly

‘Remember Amazon?’ Bevin shouted from the kitchen

‘Avalon’ Vevin corrected sitting down. ‘She’s in love with Devin and not Kevin. She only used him to get close to Devin so she can break his relationship with his girlfriend’

‘Like I predicted’ Ama said not surprised. ‘You guys never listen to me’

‘So what now? Kev is mad at Dev?’

‘Yes, and he have benn crying since. Mom and dad don’t know yet’

‘She almost succeeded in breaking Devin’s relationship with Hamburger?’ Bevin said walking back in with a bowl of chicken. I rolled my eyes. Iso turned the temperature down

‘Amber’ Vevin corrected

‘Nuance. Good thing Blake Jr was smart enough to notice it and expose her, she’s a witch’

‘He has a name’ Vevin huffed

‘Again, I don’t care. Amber and Devin are okay but Kev’s not’ Kevin walked in with Devin behind him. He walked to me and hugged me.

‘Ara, my heart got broken and Devin caused it’ he cried

‘I didn’t do anything! It’s not my fault she likes me’ Devin defended. ‘I hate that Absalom girl’

‘It’s Avalon!’ Kevin yelled. I knocked his head. ‘Why!’ He sobbed

‘Did Devin get all girly when his first, second, third and fourth crush liked you and not him? Did he complain when you used and dumped them?’

‘No but…’

‘Shut up’ I snapped. ‘Stop being a **** and apologize to your brother this instant’ Bevin laughed pointing at him

‘Ha! ****’

‘Sorry’ he murmured

‘What did you say?’ I asked warningly

‘Okay I’m sorry, I know it’s not your fault but….’

‘Kevin you don’t love Avalon, how many time will I say it!!!’ Ama yelled. ‘You are mixing up your feelings for Thalia and mistaking it for Abalone…don’t correct me’

‘But Thalia is my best friend’

‘And that idiot is why you will keep getting hurt. She’s dying for you to say something to her and you are here saying she’s your best friend. Die there’ Vevin hissed. If it cane from Bevin, I wouldn’t have been shocked but this aside

‘I called you guys here for a reason, not this talk’

‘I’m leaving’ I said sadly

‘Leaving? To where?’ Ama asked confusedly

‘Can you all swear not to tell our parents and everyone else?’ I asked pleadingly. Iso burst into tears

‘No it can’t be’ she sobbed

‘What? Is this another pregnancy madness?’ Kevin blunted receiving a slap from me. Remember he’s hugging me like he’s my husband

‘Jeanie, she’s not dying’ Ama said chucklingly. We laughed understanding her cry

‘I’m not dying Iso, calm down’

‘You are lying, you are leaving us’ she sobbed

‘Jeanie!’ Ana yelled. Iso stopped crying and wiped her tears

‘My lips are sealed’ Vevin smiled

‘I won’t either’ Bevin promised

‘I won’t talk, I swear on my hair’ Iso declared. No need to ask Dev and Ama. Kev looked around grinningly

‘Kevin’ I drawled

‘I won’t tell anyone’

‘Okay, does this have anything to do with your powers?’ Ana asked calmly. My eyes widened with shock

‘How did you…?’

‘I’m not stupid’ she shrugged

‘Powers!’ They exclaimed except Devin.

‘Remember the day you died I was there with you when everyone went out crying?’ She asked calmly. We nodded. ‘I saw your mother, Christabel’

‘What!’

‘I’m sorry I didn’t tell you, she made me promise not to. She appeared in the form of a shadow and healed you. She tried to remove my memory but I’m not easy to tamper with. I made sure to isolate you like she said to so your powers would activate’ she stood up. ‘I’m sort of like a psychic, I inherited it from my grandmother’

‘And you didn’t tell us!’ I said hurtfully

‘It’s my own secret Ara, mom don’t even know’

‘So? Is Iso a witch or something too?’

‘Nope, ordinary’

She went on to explain how she had been noticing my change and helping me stay calm. Turns out Devin saw me that day at the tao bit decided it was best to keep quiet

‘If Kev was the one who said this, I would have slapped him’ Iso said still in shock. Kevin was busy jumping over the whole powers thing. Knee he would get excited

‘That’s not the only thing now. I said I was leaving because I found my soulmate’

‘He’s a werewolf, I know’ Amabel said calmly. Kevin screamed again jubilating. ‘Sorry, I read your mind’

‘This is so awesome!’

‘You accepted the bond?’ Devin asked quizzically

‘That’s why I’m confuse, he told me yesterday and I fainted four times. I don’t know, should I?’

‘Hell yes! He will be dedicated to you and you alone Ara, no one else. That kind of man is so my type’ Kevin chirped

‘Gay’ Bevin mocked. ‘I agree tho and since he’s your soulmate, it’s advisable to go for him’

‘And it’s not like you are normal either’ Vevin shrugged

‘And he risked it to tell you the truth. He’s honest, just get married and get pregnant already’ Iso yelled at me

‘Are you guys really okay with this? No freak out?’

‘I’m okay as long as he don’t transform in front of me. I will die there’ Vevin said fearfully

‘I think werewolves are hot’ Bevin said grinningly

‘Your happiness matters’ Devin added

‘I just need someone that won’t break our heart and who can screw you good’ Iso said winkingly. I rolled my eyes. ‘He will be like your Superman’

‘I really don’t care’ Ama said plainly

‘Can I be a werewolf too?’

‘For once, use your being Kevin’ Bevin snapped. He ignored her…first time!

‘Hallelujah!!!!!’ Devin and Vevin shouted making us laugh

‘Ara is there anything else?’ Ana asked. I won’t tell them about the other part. They will freak out to know that I might die

‘Nothing’ I smiled

‘So when am I meeting my more fantastic in-law?!’ Kevin shrieked. I chuckled

Now to talk to Cyrus but I won’t tell him about my powers yet. I have a feeling I shouldn’t
