"Please, Matty," I said, but I don't know why I was pleading. Is it because I want him to stop telling the truth? Or I want to stop him from hurting Ethan.
He took a deep breath and came in front of me. "Accept the rejection, chubby" his voice was soft, but still, his words were piercing my heart. "The more time you will take, the more you will suffer." He said and got up from his place, and I looked at him in panic. "I am going to bring food for us, nothing else. I promise," he said and went out of the room.
Layla is simply sitting with me, and none of us said anything. I want to distract my mind from everything that happened today. "Layla, mind link matt. We are going to the human settlement," I told her and got up from my place. I walked towards the cupboard and took whatever clothes came into my hand.
"I don't think that's a good idea. We can go tomorrow," she told me nervously.
"My birthday is today, Layla. Come on now, take anything you want to wear from my cupboard, and please don't deny," I pleaded softly and went to the bathroom. I took a quick bath and changed into a ragged denim and black tank top. Matt and Layla were both there when I exited the bathroom, but none of them looked ready. "Guys, I am serious. I wanted to go there, and I am not going alone." They were looking unsure, so I focused on Matt first "please, Matt" I could see that he was still confused, but he just nodded.
"I will be back within a few minutes then," he said and went out of my room. I looked at Layla and c****d an eyebrow.
"Fine," she rolled her eyes and finally took something from the cupboard and went to the bathroom. She came out after a few minutes and was wearing black shorts and a black crop top.
"Do you have Ethan's number?" I asked her while she was combing her hair.
"Why do you need his number?" she asked me and narrowed her eyes.
"So that I can enjoy my night," I told her and took her mobile. I called him, put the cell on speaker, and tried to comb my hair.
He answered the call after a few minutes "hello." It will be a lie if I say his voice does not affect me.
"Don't get intimate with anyone for at least this night. I can feel the pain, and it is unbearable," I told him and tried not to show any emotions.
"So, a weirdo like you will tell me what to do and what not to do," he told me coldly, and I instantly knew he was angry.
"Listen, Ethan. Moon goddess paired me with you. It's not like I chose you by myself. I don't have any mistake in this. You rejected me, and I did not say anything, now, I just want a peaceful night, and a particular body part of yours has already given me enough pain to last for almost two days. I am just asking for today's night" instead of saying anything, he disconnected the call.
"Damn, please addy let me go. I wanted to kill that bastard" Matt is now standing in front of me. Before I said something, Ethan came barging into my room... {Why is this man so adamant about increasing my problems?}
"Who do you think you are to order me b***h?" as soon as he completed his sentence, a punch came out of thin air and met hard with his jaw. I looked wide-eyed as Layla was now standing between Ethan and me.
"Stay away from her," she whispered... {I already know this is going to happen} ...She is shaking in anger, her fists are clenched, and blood is dripping from her fists {that punch would have been really hard then} ...I looked at Matt for help, but he was also in the same state. Suddenly I felt the change in atmosphere, and I looked at Ethan. His eyes are not brown anymore, his eyes are pitch black, and his jaw is clenched, but what made me nervous are his already elongated canines and claws... {well, this is not looking good...}
