Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Chapter 59 - So, You Played Me.

Adeline was packing her things. Marshall had left after a phone call from his sister saying that it was an emergency. So she had lazily started packing her things up as well after saying goodbye.

She moved out of the seat and out of the room but Xavier came in front of her. She stared into his eyes as his eyes called to her. The lovely colour was trapping her in them. Shaking her head with some courage, she looked away and sidestepped to the left.

He took a step to the left too.

She took a step to the right.

He did too.

Frustrated, she stepped backs and gave him a clear way to enter the room. She pointed the way with when hands and showed it to him. Go on, her eyes said. 

His whole aura seemed different. From the good guy, he had gone to the bad boy. From the hoodies to leather jackets, he and changed it all.

And she loved it on him. It seemed to be more him. 

She had been staring into his eyes as she did all of this. Her breathing had quickened as she stood with him alone in a classroom.

He smirked in return, tilting his head a bit as he looked at her up and down. He took a step forward and lazily walked to her caging her across the board with his arms on each side. His perfume went up to her nostrils and make her swoon.

"Y-you," she stammered but breathed immediately and corrected herself. "I need to go."

"I know," he muttered still staring at her face as he tilted his head ever so slightly a kind her whimper. 

But she was stubborn and strong too. "You need to let go of me then."

"I will. In a moment." He smiled. "I just wanted to talk."

"Which you could have done like a normal person in the hallway." She retorted.

"Too much of a crowd." He tsked.

"Then you could have asked for a private conference." She argued with a firm voice. "We can talk later. I need to go. No" She said as she sucked underneath his arm.

As soon as she ducked, his arm shot up and he held her by the waist, dragging her up to where she was before.

"You will go home," He muttered. His voice never raising itself from a certain level. "I will see to it. But for now, we need to talk."

Taking her hand in his, he pulled her to the seat and made her sit in one. Then he sat in the one in front of her but in a different way. He was facing her instead of the board.

"Talk." She spat. "and get it over with." 

"Angry little bird," he teased. "Alright," he raised his hands in surrender as she halted at him.

"I lied." He confessed.

She frowned. "What?"

"Girls love the guys that are gentle, who don't abuse or push boundaries. The day you walked in your innocence attracted everyone to you, there was no way in hell that you were going to even look at me. Even though I keep to myself and but if k looked at my car and jacket, apparently that ticks everything off the bad-boy list." He clicked his tongue in annoyance.

She continued to frown. So whatever her friends had said was true. But why? If she had to choose, both of his personalities were very attractive to her.

"Why change?" She asked. "And why tell me the truth now?"

He sighed. "When you said about me playing games with you, I was not. There is this guy who told me that if I would ignore you, you would miss me more or some shit like that. Honestly, I don't even fucking remember it now. It was complete bullshit."

She looked out of the window and muttered, "was it Bullshit because it did not work?"

He shrugged. "Somewhere, yes." Then stared hard at her making her shiver. "Don't abuse."

Crossing her arms, she asked after a slight nod, "What do you want? What's with telling me any of this?"

He leaned his back to the desk. What should he tell her? The unfiltered truth would have her running to the hills and away from him. He would have to leave certain parts out to make sure that she was staying.

"I fell for you the moment I saw you." He admitted. "And it's Bullshit, well I thought that it was but it happened to me. It was love at the first sight and it cringes the hell out of me."

"You curse a lot." She noticed.

"I do. It changed for you. A good boy with good looks and good manners can charm off anyone." He grimaced. "But the question is, would you give me, us another chance?"

Adeline's eyes turned to look at his face. She stared at him as she thought about it. Should I give him a chance? He was being honest and confessing. His reasons were logical. He just wanted to love her and for that, he did what he thought was right.

In which he did fail.

She sighed. What to do?

"Earlier," she started, "when we went on a date you asked me to be your girlfriend and I agreed and now here you are telling me that you had changed everything for me so that I would fall for you. So, you lied." She mumbled lowly, "You played me."

He stared at her with a dead expression before saying, "exactly what I said."

"You did and I thank you for being honest with me." She appreciated. "But why would I be with a person who lied to me when we first met?"

Xavier blinked and a shocked expression and on his face. "Fuck, now I regret telling you anything!"

She giggled, "I do want to give you a chance." She admitted. "but when I waited for you on the porch of my house I felt..it felt devastating to me." Tears gathered in her eyes as she remembered and said, "I don't want to ever feel it again."

"And I understand that," he immediately took her hand in his almost giving away his desperation." and I swear to everything holy, I won't ever do it again."

She sighed. "I don't want to. . " she muttered starting into his eyes.

Seconds after they were making out like never before.
