Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Chapter 102 - A Long Time - I

Adeline did not know for how long she sat there with no outside the establishment where no one came out after the little boy learnt spectacle inside. She wondered how it was that all of them were staying inside and did not come to check out or come after her to get her back in until Xavier arrived to get her.

Her confidence and she remained seated at the bench as she was silent and lost in her thinking. She was pregnant and this was the new reality That she was to live with for the rest of her life that you would have a baby. Noah's presence did not seem to calm in the slightest bit so she would never compare him to how she would have felt if the saviour was here with her instead of the boy present. 

She missed him, truly she did. For her, it might not have been the mate bond responsible but her own feelings. 

*******

The next day Adeline had gone to a school like she normally would. She had woken up early, dressed up and was ready to go for the day. But right now, unlike daily, she was standing still in front of the mirror and was staring at her belly. It was flat. There was no bump on it yet and as her report showed.

She palmed the belly and sighed. There was something inside it. There was something inside her. Along with the feelings and the random thoughts that popped into her head, everything else was fine. Everything else except for her being pregnant and her boyfriend and his family in sad most of the town that she lived in was supernatural, was fine.

No Biggie, at all.

She didn't know what to do. Noah Scott seemed like a friend but every time she was with him an ominous feeling came to her mind and it always told her to stay away from him. She felt to succumb to her instincts and stay away from the man but something forced her to talk to him. Something in her mind always pulled her back and towards him as if he was the only man that she should have never been involved with.

There was a pull, a force full one, that she had never felt before.

There was a lot of time to school. So she sat down on the bed and continue to think about the whole situation. Noah was always around how which never allowed her to think about things. Now that he was not here she could think of what was wrong with him.

And she realised that a lot of things were.

How did he know so much about the community by just being a mate of a supernatural being? Another thing that she did not understand was how did no one ever regard him with the respect that they did to Adeline?

Even though people did not come up on the road to talk to her but whenever Adaline tried to strike up a conversation they were just as involved as her. It somehow made her feel that they were staying away to give her her own space and came forward whenever she did.

But for Noah felt like he was always disregarded by the people altogether as they have he was a human.

. . . . but could he be more than that?

What if he was someone else that she did not know about?

Because if they were werewolf and species superior to that known as Lycans, then to balance them out there have to be counter species and there was a very big chance that he could be one of those which is why he knew everything about the community that Xavier hailed from.

This could also be one of the speculations that she had come up with something that was entirely controversial and just a theory. 

Another thing that was questioned, waa from the night of the adventure was how did he know where to go and which direction was the wind flowing through. For her, only experienced personnel knew that. He even made her duck in, time and again so that the wind would not get their scent. How did he know? 

How did he even know that? because his mate would surely not have ever told him about this. She would have tried to include him amongst the people that she lived in.

She gasped as she realised that a lot has been going on behind her back and she was believing a guy who could potentially be lying or long but so had Xavier. He had lied to her too and it hurt her even more.

She continues to sit in front of the mirror on her bed and once again found her belly. What was she to do? She did not want to kill the baby not give it up for adoption but she knew that if you went to college with it she knew that she was going to have a very difficult time.

And never mind the college she still had a senior year to deal with and with the baby people were going to make her life hell.

She picked up her bag and move downstairs. It was her father's day to make breakfast today and he had made quesadillas which she loved.

He gave her two and had his share, both of them eating silently and the low voice of TV telling them the news of today.

"I don't know how to address a lot of things to you. Maybe because I'm not a mother and we cannot gossip." Father spoke as he drank his juice in bits. "But that does not mean that I am not noticing things. Just know that if any problem arises between Xavier and you, the best solution is to talk and it does not matter how you do it. If it makes you comfortable to talk on the phone, do that." Instead of having a friendly expression of a woman having this conversation with her she has the stoic and awkward expressions of a father which made this conversation even more embarrassing. 

"Oh," she blushed. Adaline was very not expecting anything like that coming from her father and for him to notice her problems. "Thank you." She mumbled under her breath and continued to eat her breakfast. This was anything but how should I expected the morning to be like. 

He nodded. "One more thing I know this is short notice but we have to go to your aunt's for a week, at least." He raised a finger to signify one. 

They have been frequently talking with her aunt from her father's side but going to live together for something completely out of the blue. "Why?" She asked to which he shrugged.

"She invited us, something important. So, for tomorrow I will have our flights booked and I will tell the school about your absence." She nodded to that. A break from all of this would be great. Some time apart from Noah Scott and Xavier would be great as finally, she would be able to figure out things with even more of a calm and pleasant mind. 

Her father left after eating his breakfast something about having an early meeting but she continues to set on the dining chair as she thought about what he had said.

He was right and she knew that. She will want to talk to him and the only thing possible was to make a call to Xavier who she wished would be free to pick it up.

She took out her phone and dial his number who had revolving hearts around it after staring at it for quite some time thinking if she has really to call him or just let how the situation was planning out be. Taking a step forward on her own into the Darkness felt like it was as if you step on its sound and she was uncertain about this. 

"Hello, baby." A smile came to her face immediately when she heard his voice. It had been too long. Baby from him was too heart-melting.

"Hi," she whispered and for a moment she even forgot about what she had called him for. She shook her head she got back to the matter at hand and decided to be firm and straight. "I need to talk to you. When are you free for a long period?" She bit her lip and she realised that there were chances he could be busy, he must be caring for his family and socializing with them all. "I mean I understand that you must be looking after your uncle but I need to talk to you and—"

"Hey, hey, Adeline." He chuckled and she slowed down. "It's completely fine and I understand that you want to talk to me. Don't worry I'm actually in town and I will be there in an hour."

She nodded and decided to tell him where she wanted to meet him. It was going to be it.
