Betrayal

KADEN

Hearing Avery’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts about Storm. Turning around, I gave her the signature smile, or rather a lame mild stretching of my lips, an action which was definitely in contrast with the freeness I experienced around Storm.

I guess it was one of the reasons why I needed Storm, to feel more alive and not be stiff like a robot who has taken upon himself to take care of the clan by any means necessary.

“Hi Kaden, how are you doing?” Avery asked, stepping closer to me, trying to kiss me on the lips but I turned away at the last second, and the kiss landed on my cheek.

I saw the flash of anger that crossed her face and disappeared the next second.

“Is there anything wrong?” she asked, and I wanted to tell her yes. I wanted to tell her to scoot away and that I had found my mate at last.

I wanted to tell her about Storm, and I wanted to tell that I wasn't going to continue this thing between us but all I did say was that ‘I am fine.’ for the time wasn’t right
