☆\\Chapter Twenty-Eight

I was in a good mood today.

My body felt relaxed and my mind as well.

I haven't been able to overthink anything since that time at Mykel's house. My mind was just fixated on how I was so flushed being so close him, naked. It was one of those moments that excited my body to the point that my legs wanted to give out. And I knew there was alot more in store for me.

After Mykel drove me home, I wanted to go straight to my room but I was stopped my by parents. I couldn't possible ignore them forever so I sat and listened as they explained everything to me. They apologized for hiding so much from me and I actually forgave them. It made no sense to hold a grudge when I already knew everything.

I sighed as I closed the third book I've looked through and still didn't find anything relevant. I was in the school library researching about witches. I wanted to know everything from how spells work to different types of powers. I could heal which was my ability due to the witch blood in my body but was that it? Was it possible to do more?.

So many thoughts were surrounding my mind and I forced myself to push them away. All I wanted to do was focus on what happened at Mykel's. I find myself smiling like an idiot as I bit my lip and felt a swarm of butterflies in my belly. His strong, muscular arms wrapped around my body, his soft lips against mine devouring them, his thick and long...my cheeks went red when an image of his length crept to my mind.

"You seem to be having a wonderful time in your mind."

I immediately snapped out of it and saw Jace seated in the opposite seat. The library wasn't full but I was the only one at my section which was at the far right. Jace was relaxed in his seat with his arms crossed as he stared at me as if he wanted to try and read my mind.

"Your book seems quiet interesting", he said and I my eyes landed on the books on the table. I took them up without a second thought and placed them back on the shelf behind me. I really didn't want to talk to him but I couldn't leave as yet. Mykel said he'll pick me up but that won't be until the next half an hour. He didn't feel safe with me traveling on the bus so I had to comply and wait for him.

"What do you want Jace?", I asked stressing his name at the end. There was this nagging feeling in my mind saying I should be far away from his as possible. Him and his crew were bad news and I shouldn't get involved with them and especially him.

"Why do you have to be so mean to me?. Can't I fucking make friends? Why you humans act like you're all that and don't like to accept affection? Just because I'm new doesn't mean I have no feelings!."

I was stunned by his outburst. I stared at him unable to say anything. Was I coming off too cold towards him? I mean I didn't really know him and I always get negative towards him.

"I'm sorry. I'm just not very fond of you", I told him honestly but he only shrugged.

"It's fine. Not alot of persons are fond of me anyway. They always judge me before they get to know me and that's the fucked up thing about humans."

I listened to him and then something clicked. It was the second time he had said 'us humans' as if he wasn't human as well. I tilt my head as I tried to study him. Was that the reason my instincts act up when he was around? Was he a part of the supernatural world and was a threat to me? .

"In case you're wondering, I'm not human."

I got my answer when his eyes flashed from their natural color to emerald green. Could he also sense that I was a witch?. I pulled back and swallowed harshly. The feeling that I shouldn't trust him came back.

"Then what are you?", I asked before he stood up and looked at me.

"I'm a-"

He was interrupted by someone calling my name. But it wasn't just anyone, it was Avan who looked stress to the point that his hair was all over the place. We haven't talked much since lately and I was dying to know what was going on in his head.

"I have to go", I said quickly as I got up and took up my bag. Jace's eyes were back to their original color before he turned and went the opposite direction.

"Hey, I was helping my professor with something", Avan said before glancing around the library.

"That's fine. I'm waiting on Mykel who should be here any minute now. Are you alright?", I asked reaching out and touching his arm. He shivered as a trickle of sweat ran down his face even thou the AC was on and the place was beyond cold. I was getting worried now.

"Come here", he said next before guiding me to the corner where no one was. He seemed a bit anxious and I touched his hand to calm him down.

"Something's happening to me Lina. It's driving me crazy", was his next words as I gazed up at him.

"What do you mean?. Talk to me. Are you experiencing things based on the fact that you may have traces of witchery in your blood as well?."

I didn't even realize I said that and when I did my eyes widen in shock. Avan was still staring at me and I didn't know if I was being paranoid but I could've sworn I could hear his heart beating rapidly against his chest.

"That's it Lina, I think I have it too. But mine is different from yours. Remember how you told me that you could heal by yourself?", he said and I nod quickly as I waited for his next words.

"Well, I can make girls fall for me in just one look Lina. It's driving me mad because I'm not interested in any of them. They're so damn annoying and as much as I wanted to be noticed this was too much. I hate this witchery stuff."

My lips were in a thin line as I listened to him. I really didn't know what to say. But with this new information meant that both of us were targets and in danger every second.

"It's ok Avan, just breathe. We'll be fine. We need each other more than anything since we're both targets. Our lives have completely changed and it's a new beginning for us", I said wishing that somehow our lives were different and we were normal.

But this was reality and it had to be faced.

"There you are."

I looked up and saw Mykel coming over to us. I blushed madly as I admired how good he looked. He was wearing a pair of black ripped jeans and a grey shirt with a wolf print on it. His hair was styled to the back and I would be lying if I said he didn't looked yummy. My cheeks got even redder at the word I used to describe his body.

"Well, he does look good", Avan whispered in my ear then quickly pulled away before I could reply.

I opened my arms and accepted his tight embrace. His lips went to my cheek and I blushed wishing Avan wasn't witnessing this.

"I've missed you", he whispered in my ear sending shivers down my entire body. His arms were still secured around my waist rubbing circular motions.

"You too", I whispered against his neck as he chuckled before pulling away.

"Let's go, I have a meeting to attend in an hour", he said next as he took my hand in his.

Avan and I followed him out of the library and towards his car. My mind went to Jace and what he said about not being human. I still didn't know what he was but it wasn't a wolf or vampire. No matter what it was we shouldn't mix and I had no intentions of getting close to him.

I don't trust him and I doubt that will ever change.
