The guy kept screaming. I found pleasure in hitting him so hard until his mouth bled. Nolan drew me away from him. "What's your problem!!" He yelled and I flinched
I batted my lashes, trying to calm my already boiling nerves. "I-i just saved you and all you could do is yell?". He Ignored me and I groaned. "I shouldn't have helped you. I should have let him beat the hell out of you"
He folded his arms. "I never asked for your help in the first place. I can take care of myself"
I scoffed. "Take care of yourself indeed". I pushed him aside and walked out on him. People kept staring at me. I growled and they scurried away.
"Olive?" Someone called. I turned to see Ella. She walked closer to me. "You're bleeding"
I furrowed my brows. "I'm not bleeding"
"You are". She pointed at my mouth. "See, your lips are swollen". I placed my hand on my lips and I felt a sharp pain. I groaned. I love to bite my lips when I am angry. I must have bitten it so hard. I rolled my eyes. "I will get the first aid kit from the car"
I raised my hand. "There is no point. I will be fine,"
"You don't look fine to me". I made to say something but she stopped me with her hand. "Don't try to stop me. I will go get the kit"
I rolled my eyes. "I will wait in the garden for you". She nodded and left. I went to the garden to wait for Ella. I plugged in my earpiece, waiting patiently for her return. I kinda regret why I helped Nolan. He's so rude. He couldn't say a simple thank you. Instead, he accused me of helping him when he did not beg for my help. I scoffed. "Pervert" I mumbled.
If I had left him with that guy, he would have ended in the clinic by now and he won't have the guts to say those trashes to me. I rolled my eyes. I won't help him next time. "Like you can do that," my subconscious mind said.
I groaned. That's the problem. I can't see him getting hurt and not want to help. I wish I could take my mind off him completely and face my business. I wish I could watch him get hurt and not bother. I wish I could hear he was hurt and not want to help him fight back. I just felt he's weak and needs help. I see myself as someone who can help him. I sighed. I think I have to learn to mind my business and stop poking my nose into his private life. Someone touched me and I raised my head. "Ella"
She smiled and sat down. "Sorry, I came late"
I rolled my eyes and then smiled back. "It's ok"
She opened the kit and helped me with my lips. We returned the kit to her cat and then headed to the class. As we walked into the class, there was silence. I rolled my eyes. Have they been talking about me?. And then decides to keep shut when they saw me?. I ignored them and went to my seat. Ella followed behind. "Nolan is staring at you" she whispered
I hissed. He can stare for all I care!!
**
I was happy class was ended for the day. I won't have to see Nolan's annoying face. The fact that he accused me of helping him without him asking made me want to punch his face so hard. More than that guy had punched. And the fact that he kept staring at me, made it so annoying. And as much as I glared at him, he wouldn't stop staring. I had to ignore him and let him stare for as long as he wants. Now, seeing the last lecturer leave the class, I had to breathe a sigh of relief. Relief from seeing Nolan's face and the faces of the other students who had been staring at me too. "Olive, you can go. I have a few things to do"
I rolled my eyes. "Like going after someone else's mate?"
She laughed. "What are you talking about?"
"You know what I'm talking about. You don't have to pretend"
She chuckled. "Nigel?"
I scoffed. "You know"
She burst into a wave of laughter and I had to stare at her. Is she ok?. She stopped laughing. "That's hilarious. You're so funny, Olive"
I frowned. "What do you mean?"
"That you thought I am going after someone else's mate, is funny. And the fact that you think, I am after Bella's mate, makes it very funny"
I rolled my eyes. "Are you telling me, there is nothing between you two?"
"Of course. Bella knows about our friendship and she's cool with it"
I batted my lashes. "How come Bella knows about it and I don't?"
"That's because you, my dear friend, is busy trying to avoid Nolan that you did not notice you were pushing yourself away from me too"
I scoffed. "I'm but pushing myself away from you. You were the one busy with Nigel"
She laughed. "I wasn't busy with Nigel"
I hissed. "Whatever. I'm leaving"
She smiled and hugged me. "You know I love you right?"
I scoffed. "I don't love you"
She pulled away and picked up her bag. "But I love you and I know you love me too"
I smiled. "Stupid girl"
She waved at me. "Bye sweety". She threw kisses at me and I smiled. I picked up my bag and went to the park. I entered my car and headed home. As I drove home, I knew I needed to find something to tell my mom when she asked what happened to mt lips. I rolled my eyes. I can't tell her I fought for a mate I rejected. I hissed. I will just tell her, I fell.
I parked my car and stepped out. Mom was outside the packhouse, waiting for me I guess. She walked closer to me. "Are you ok?. I have been calling your phone"
I rolled my eyes. "You called my phone?". I brought out the phone from my bag and saw fifteen missed called from my mom. I blinked. "Mom!!. Why do you have to call me this much?"
She sighed. "Just wanted to be sure you're safe". She looked around. "Where is Ella?"
"She's at school, doing a few things"
"Why didn't you stay back with her?. You should have helped her with whatever she was doing. Aren't you both friends?"
I groaned. It seems my mom is hiding something from me. "Mom, what's going on?"
She smiled wearily. "Nothing dear. You should go to your room and change. I want you to get something for me from your uncle's pack"
I furrowed my brows. "Why would you want to send me there?"
She held my hand and smiled. "Just to get something for me. You won't be there for long"
I sighed. "Mom, if there is anything I need to know, please don't hesitate to tell me"
She smiled. "Trust me. I will tell you"
I sighed. "Ok mom"
I went into my room and took my bath, got dressed in black jeans and a black denim jacket. I picked my phone and my bag and left my room for my mom. I got to her room and made to knock on the door when I heard her voice. I placed my ear in the door. "Don't let her come back. She can't know our pack is under attack". "Yes, you know how stubborn Olivia can be". "I will send Ella over when she's bac". "Please make sure they are safe". "Yes. Thank you so much, Martins"
I blinked my eyes. Our pack is under attack? And mom is trying to send me and Ella away?. Different questions ran through my mind. Who is launching the attack?. Could it be Salvador?. Or the ruthless alpha?. I don't think the ruthless alpha would do that. Then which pack or alpha wants to attack ours and why?. Why does mom want me out of the pack?. I sighed. This is the first attack in a long time.
