The Lycan's Revengeful Rejected Mate (Katherine)

KATHERINE: 

Tanya and I left the concert earlier so we could head back home on time. 

“I enjoyed every bit of it, Tanya. Wish we’d do this next time.” I said as we were heading towards the car, but Tanya suddenly halted and took two steps ahead of me when I also halted, 

“Katherine, head to the car first, I’ll be with you shortly. I need to check up on something urgent.” Tanya said, but I didn’t move from my spot. She turned around to stare at me. 

“Please, I think someone’s watching us.” 

“What?” 

“No matter what you do, don’t stop walking until you head to the car. Make sure you don’t look anyone in the eyes and ensure that your head is faced down.” 

Tanya was really confusing me. Why did I have to do all of this! 

Tanya 

anything happens to you, your mate is going to kill me. Trust me, I’ll be fine, I’ll kiss some asses when I see them.” She smiled but I didn’t. How could she smile at a moment like this? As she had instructed, I began to head towards the car without raising my head. I could only see my feet as I walked and I tried so hard not to look back, 

Just a few meters away from the car, it was like I suddenly magically bumped into someone, and damn I had not even noticed someone was in front of me, 

“Tm so…” I raised my head to apologize, but the rest of my words got stuck in my throat as I stared into his deep hazel eyes which were almost like that of Leo’s. Fuck! He was fucking handsome with red lips and broad shoulders. I could feel my body flaring up as a result of the proximity between us, but I didn’t fail to notice his face looked quite familiar. 

“Katherine?” He uttered, and the moment I heard my name in his mouth, I returned to my senses and immediately took two steps away, but he grabbed my arm away before I could take a third step and I screamed out loud begging for him to let me go. Who the hell was the stranger, 

My gaze still didn’t leave his eyes, and then he whispered to me, 

“I want you to forget everything you saw here. You never met me and you don’t know me. I can’t let anyone know that I’m in town” He said to me, but I kept staring at him, wondering what the hell he just did or what he was talking about. Before I could comprehend what the hell was going on, he was gone. How fucking fast was that? 

“Katherine, what’s wrong? Did you see anything or anyone?” She questioned me, but could I tell her what just happened? 

“No. Someone just tried to grab my bag and he almost hit me to do so.” I replied, but I also hated the fact that I had to lie to Tanya of all people. I had this feeling that I needed to know more about this guy if I wanted to talk about him and that would be impossible. Maybe I got the wrong lady or mistook me for someone else.” 

“Come on, let’s head back to the pack before it gets too late,” Tanya said and we began to walk towards the car together. I was standing behind her, and I could see how much of a hurry she was to get out of here. I wondered if something happened or if she had seen something that she didn’t want me to see, 

I got into the car and shut the door, 

“Fuck! Why wouldn’t these damn rogues leave you alone?” Tanya yelled out loud, 

“They were rogues?” 

“Yeah, I could perceive their awful scent right there. I’ll head back here and handle it myself tonight. There might be some left around here and I think it’s high time I fucking look into why they’re all hell–bent on chasing you.” 

“Who else? Of course, it would be my step–sister ordering them,” I heaved deeply as I spoke and relaxed back on my seat, Tanya didn’t start the car, 

“You step–sister? Who’s she? The lady I saw with Alpha Zane?” 

but 

I nodded my head without opening my eyes to stare at Tanya. “Whoever she is, she’s a fucking bitch. I should visit her one day, don’t you think?” 

“Jane is a cunning bitch, Tanya. I don’t want her to hurt you.” I heard Tanya laugh out so loud and it made me open my eyes, “T would rip out her heart before she gets close to me Katherine, everyone underestimates what I can do huh.” She muttered and ignited the engine before driving away. 

As soon as we got back to the pack, I was about to head to my room, but Tanya called me back, 

“The rogues would be our little secret, please don’t tell Leo.” She begged and I nodded my head. I wasn’t going to tell Leo in the first place because I knew what his reaction would be and maybe next time I would have to call him more than a jerk before he lets me out of the house, 

“Would never,” I uttered and then began walking up the stairs. Immediately I got to my room, I shut the door and crashed on my bed. I could only think about the strange yet fucking handsome man I had seen today. Those words, what were they all about? He wanted me to forget that I had seen him there. Why? 

I could swear I had seen a partial resemblance of Leo in him, but this time the Aura was so much different. I had no idea why I was feeling this way, but it was so strange. I couldn’t just tell Tanya that I had just met a strange man who said some weird words to me, and then I felt something unexplainable just being close to him. 

I groaned aloud, wrecking my fingers into my hair, 

“Must have been a mistake, Katherine. Let’s just forget about what we saw until we meet him next time.” I said to myself before realizing what I had just said to myself, 

“What! Do you want there to be a next time? Damn it. 

It was at this moment I recalled that he knew my name. How the hell did he know my name? Could he be someone from my past? 

ZANE: 

“Do you still love her?” 

Jane asked me for the third time, but I couldn’t give a response because I didn’t know what response to give to her. I was thinking about Katherine, I was slowly becoming regretful, and I was slowly beginning to regret why I didn’t listen to her, but also, I didn’t want to believe what I had seen today entirely. 

Earlier today, a strange letter was sent to me by an unknown person right before I was leaving the office, 

“I have no idea, Jane, I responded, letting the alcohol take partial control over me. Who the hell could I trust? Jane, or the letter? 

“I just want to find out who the hell killed my father, and that’s all.” My voice became louder than the first time, and Jane held my hand immediately, 

“It’s Katherinel” She yelled, 

“You saw everything you needed to see in those videos, so why the hell are you doubting that it was Katherine? She killed your father, Zane and you know it. Stop trying to use your past feelings for her to cover up her murderous act.” She yelled at me again. 

I heaved deeply and rose to my feet, © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Zane, where the hell are you going? Zane?” 

I turned around to stare at her, 

“And what if there was evidence that Katherine was never at the pack at the minute of my father’s death? Based on the doctor’s report, he died around 6:20 pm, but what if at that time she was somewhere else? What if someone else did it and tried to blame her?” 

I tried to take a step further, but then I heard Jane scream and when I turned back, she was on the floor with blood on her thighs.
