“Why do I get the feeling that you wanted your father to chase me off?” I asked when I parked the new char… they are called cars. Into a spot meant of it. I will slip not at showing the skills but remembering to call things by the rightful names given to them.
“Because that is what I want and I haven’t being trying to hide it.” Yura returned as she turned to face me. “Tell me, on a scale of one to ten, how scared were you?”
The answer was zero. I might have had majority of my gods powers bounded by my father but it didn't change the fact that I was a god from two very powerful gods and the original god of the wolves. Nothing could change the power brimming at my core.
“Three.” I answered, feeling like that was closer to the true answer and not too far from the answer which she wanted me to give.
Apparently I was wrong because her mouth dropped open in surprise. “You are purposely pulling my legs, aren’t you? My dad scare factor is always a ten, he doesn’t skimp when it comes to scaring others for my protection.”
And now I know what Yura was trying to do. She just confessed to it with her mouth. “And here I was thinking that you have been calm since because you were okay with me because you do want to have me around.”
“What am I using you being around me to do?” Yura questioned me confused. “Let’s list all you have been good for… Causing attention to be on me, making things more difficult for me and refusing to hear the word no.”
“You forgot saving you from your psychotic pack mates.” I added blandly but Yura shook her head.
“I was only in trouble because you showed me attention in the first place.” Yura seemed to collapse in on herself. “What do you want Kayne? Am I going to be the puppet in an elaborate joke which the elites are trying to run? Is that why they sent you here?”
“Nobody sent me anywhere. Is it so hard to believe that I just want to be your friend” I released a breath of frustration. Now I get why the gods always revealed that they were gods when they visited earth then before I went to sleep.
They didn’t mean to until they run into an annoying soul like the one in front of me and just blurt out what they are just to keep the soul in line because it would have been the only thing that would work.
“Yes because I don’t have friends. I have tormentors, people who try to act like they having a change of mind concerning me only to make me look like a bigger fool. Now I am tired of the personality which you are putting forward so it would be best of you go back to who sent you and tell them that it is impossible for you to cause more havoc than you have already caused!”
“What do you mean? I haven’t done anything.” I returned.
“You being close to me already did everything!” Yura screamed at me. I was shocked by her raised voice. She always seemed calm and collected. Even when she was smirking about her father threatening me.
“Don’t you get it? You sat close to me and I almost had boiled hot water pour down my face. You helped me escape only to bring me to school and what do you think would happen this time? I would be surprised if I made it throughout today without having to need stitches or without having one of my bones broken.
“Maybe I am wrong about you, maybe all you really want to do is to help me but don’t you get it, You trying to help me isn’t helping. I am just going to be in more danger.” She finished, her voice going cracked at the end of her tirade.
I looked at Yura, really looked at her.
She looked tired, her eyes were dull and she looked defeated. A look I didn’t like on her.
And I was also not ready to let her go.
She deserves something good in her life and I am going to be that for her.
Gripping her chin in my hand, I kept her face in my direction, watching as she glared at me and liking it. At least the night was back in her eyes.
“If the way I am trying to help you isn’t working then I am going to try another method.”
“Just leave me alone instead.” She growled out, frustrated and her growl made me smile. She reminded me of a pup baring his teeth at his father when the differences between them was stark.
“No, that I cannot do. Somehow you have captivated my attention and I am not going to leave you alone until I know for certain why. You will make it throughout today and every other day because you are now under my protection.”
Yura frowned at me. “Can’t you just let this go?”
“No.”
“Well, don’t expect me to make it any easier for you. I am not buying this ‘trying to be friends’ angle from you.” With those words she jumped out of the car and slammed the door then hurried up the school stairs, I watched her as she ducked inside the building and that was when I came out.
She was really under my protection now, even though she didn’t acknowledge it but I would offer it to her regardless. Now all I needed to do was find Ben and tell him to keep his wolves away from Yura as she is now mine to protect.
My wolf satisfaction rolled through me as the beast repeated the word again.
‘Kin.’
I still don’t know what that means or why but I will find out.
I looked around to see the two girls who were in front of the office that first day bragging about running off Yura. They were with a third girl and the three of them were glaring at me.
They clearly knew that I was going to protect Yura. They were slowly understanding and they didn’t like it.
They didn’t have to. The strongest gets whatever he or she wants.
That has always been how it is and I am the strongest.
I kept my gaze on them until they started fidgeting and lowered their eyes.
They also wouldn’t like the supremacy game which I just played on them too.
They had no choice but to take it because they had no way to retaliate against me.
That was my thought, I never thought they would take it out of Yura.
