Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (ebook offline txt) 📗

from last night, only to make me aware that the night had already passed, leaving the new day to welcome once again.

A new day did come but little did I know that my days won't be the same as before.

Little did I know that I would be left to deal with a lot of things one after another, only to get myself brutally involved with something which I always feared.

And again, little did I know that I would get only the things which I hate the most in my life.

No, I couldn't look that far yet. And if I could, I would have definitely stopped myself way before from taking a careless step only to get trapped, while depriving myself of every opportunity to loose free from the cruel grip of my fate, ever.

Anyway,

Without being aware of any of this, I started my day once again, like any other day, attempting to hide myself from the whole world, specifically from my mate under the broad daylight.

Yes, no matter what, I should not be found once again by the one and only, and if that happens my identity will be exposed totally. Keeping all the possibilities in my mind and after reminding myself about a lot of cautions, I had set my journey at last for the same destination as usual.

Yes, the school, where the possibility to find my mate was the highest cause you know, the school was full of our kinds, the werewolves. And also, when I had already met my mate accidentally last night, it was possible as well that he also lives nearby. Even he could be a student too at our school, who knows?

And all I knew was I couldn't take any kind of risks this time.

Keeping that in my mind I dressed carefully, making sure that my smell was fully concealed and if not, it would definitely cause me trouble. So, I chose to wear Kaith's shirt which was already stinking with his smell all over.

Though it was good for me, still I wondered with disgust, if that dumbass ever washes his clothes properly or not.

Anyway,

Today I got to go to school alone as Kaith must be going with Jenny for sure. You know what? He even stayed over at Jenny's place last night.

I wonder what else I had to find out at school.

Keeping my mind involved with various thoughts, I rode my bike only to cross the familiar roads, letting the wind to tease my hair which indeed helped me to boost my energy up to deal yet another day of my dull life.

As soon as I reached the school's parking lot, I parked my bike only to see right after that Kaith had just entered as well. And Jenny was with him, just as I had expected.

“Ah!! It seems that both of you are having a very good morning. Right?” I said as I wanted to tease them, cause I had every right to do so.

“Funny.” Kaith gave out an irritated smile as soon as he parked his bike just beside mine, letting Jenny get off.

“Good morning, Sam.” Unlike that dumbass, Jenny came to hug me like every day, with her most precious smile. She is the jolliest person I have ever known. Her pure heart never fails to reflect through her smiles, which I like the most.

“You know, you are smelling like Kaith.” She said as soon as she pulled herself back and looked at me with her curious eyes.

“Yeah, I know. And it is something necessary for me, Jenny. I had to use your mate's smell to hide mine. I hope he will tell you everything later about why I must do this. And I hope you would not mind and let me continue. And when you know all my reasons I also hope that you won't tell anyone about my little secret.” I tried to make her understand the cause of my certain decision, at least when she was already Kaith's mate and had every right to know. Also, I didn't want to cause a misunderstanding between them for my own good. I would never want that.

“No, no... Don't take me wrong Sam. I do believe that you have your reasons definitely, and I would not mind ever. In fact, it is good for me as well, cause being with you will help my heart to ooze with happiness due to the smell, you know.” She assured me with one of her winks, together with her killer dimples as she smiled again.

“Ah...!! I guess, I have to see too much love from now on, which will surely make me blind one day.” I blurted out once again intentionally, making Jenny giggle while Kaith made a funny face once again showing how irritated he was with my perfectly chosen words.

Tsk.

What to do?

Why would you encourage my forever funny jokes from now on while you have got your mate? Yeah, yeah, I understand, and I was kidding too.

I pretended to be heartbroken after receiving such a reaction from my best friend while I did not forget to return back the favour with the same.

“Anyway let's get to the class. Or you guys want to go somewhere else?” Yeah, I know, I did not want to leave a single chance to tease Kaith. At least when I have every reason to do so.

“Sam!!... I will definitely kill you one day, with my own bare hands.” Kaith yelled as he could not hold himself back any longer after being teased repeatedly and I knew that it was my queue to run away now.

So, I escaped successfully.

I sighed.

It was fun though.

Not every morning starts with something bad for me, when I make sure to make it worse for someone else, sometimes.

Anyway,

What class I have now?

Yeah. Maths.

And right after
