“I will do anything! Just please, don’t tell my mom. I might get grounded for six months with this,” Kate genuinely worried her mom would never forgive her. Kelly is not a strict mom regarding many things, but anything about Kate being sexually involved is taboo for her. Kelly always reminds Kate that her every action will bear consequences. There is time and place to do things. There are rules and limitations which she should follow as she also enjoys the freedom on something she is allowed to do so. This offense will infuriate her mom, so she was scared of being found out. To the extent of cutting all her allowance and making her earn her own pocket money, which might not only for a specific time if her actions today reach the bottom line of her mom’s patience, she might even be disowned and shunned from this home!She just mentioned six months to be pitiful in Nick’s eyes, but she was sure as she knew her mom too well, six months is
The Wild Adventures His Frigid Heart
"I lost in a Truth or Dare game..." Kate answered in between sobs. But she could not let Nick go without hearing her out first. Maybe if he knew her reasons, he would help her, she thought. She must try everything she can to convince him. Not just to save her from her mom's wrath but to save her mom from possible stress she would cause her loving mother."I chose Dare as I worried they might ask if I am still a..." she paused and cleared her throat as her next word embarrassed her."Still what..?" Nick's jaw tightened. He could guess what word was coming out of her mouth next, but he was still curious to hear her say it out loud.And she did."A virgin..." Kate whispered, still sobbing. Her forehead against Nick's shoulder. She could not help hiding her burning face in embarrassment."And are you?" Nick can feel his chest ache at what possible answer she might say. He was afraid she would say she wasn't for whateve
The Wild Adventures Clumsy
Kate was trying to hide her pain and maybe injury from Nick that she kept her body in a curling position. But Nick did not hesitate to lift her like a sack of potatoes in his shoulder, walked, and laid her down on the couch in his dad's study room.They were already by its door when Kate caught up with Nick as he was heading to it and Kate wanted to ask something."I'm fine, I'm fine!" Kate panicked when Nick throw her to his shoulder and walked towards the study room."I will say you are if you are after I check on it," Nick glared at her. "Now stay still or I will forget about the deal we discussed earlier."Kate could no longer retort. She was really in pain but she was afraid to look even more stupid in Nick's eyes, so she said she was fine. Now that Nick is obviously annoyed, Kate wanted to curse herself for being so clumsy. She was so eager to hand him her class schedule that she aimlessly ran to her room. She did
The Wild Adventures A surprising side of her
Nick would usually drive to school, but he decided to take a cab this time. He won't make it to focus driving when he needs to do some things in multitasking. He checked his phone for Kate's class schedule and tried to remind her never to be meek in front of her bullying schoolmates.Nick decided to send her a message as she might already be busy by now. Besides, he doesn't call her. It would be weird if he starts doing so.Nick: "Don't let anyone bully you, or I will tell your mom what happened at home yesterday. Fight if you have to, physical or verbal. Do not let other people push you around, do you understand?!"No reply.Nick: "Tell me if anything happens. You may not have my father's last name, but your mom is his wife. You defend yourself, and you also defend the family."Nick did not want to make his concern sound ambiguous, so he used the family as a chopping board. He was hoping his motivations and warnings would wor
The Wild Adventures Calling for her Guardian
"Yes. May I know who is calling?" Nick politely asked.He knew it was a number from the school, but he wasn't sure who was calling. The seriousness of the situation will depend on who is calling him if it has anything to do with Kate being in trouble."This is the Principal of the Rosa Parks High School," the principal wasn't sure if the Nicholas Eudovic that he knew and this man over the phone is the same person, so he did not mention knowing a person with the same name. "Are you the guardian of Kate Taylor?""Yes. Is she alright?" Nick asked abruptly.The principal was taken aback to realize the guardian was not angry about his student being in trouble. He sounded worried about her safety instead. The old man cleared his throat and glanced at Kate, who was still sitting properly on a chair in the Principal lounge."She is alright. But not the student she had trouble with," the principal answered.
The Wild Adventures Concerned but Strict
Nick sat properly across from where Kate was sitting with her head bowed down. The Principal asked for anything Nick would like to drink, but the young Eudovic politely declined. As Kate's guardian, Nick was eager to find out what had happened more than anything right now. So, Principal Johnston sat at the head of the table and started to ask."Kate Taylor, can you tell us what happened?" asked Francis formally.Nick was silently watching Kate. He was trying to check if she was injured or hurt in any way, but he could not make his concerns known just yet, not in front of Kate herself. Kate looked at Nick first, as if she was asking if it was okay to speak. Nick nodded. Seeing his approval, Kate sat up straight and spoke with due politeness and respect. "Andrew has been annoying me ever since he saw me in the morning. I tried to avoid him, but he won't listen to whatever I said. He harassed me, so I kicked his ass," Kate spoke with her head still down as she was loo
The Wild Adventures So Attentive
"You shouldn't be too strict on her," Francis gently spoke when Kate was gone. "According to her teachers whom I have called to ask about her usual behavior and personality, she is well-mannered and polite and not even a shade of what this Andrew Kindberg said about her which I assumed anger Kate Taylor and ending up breaking his arm in the process," he explained thoroughly. Nick smiled when he heard about the Principal trying to clear Kate's personality to him as the guardian. "I know that very well, Sir," he politely replied. "I am even proud she can protect herself, but I cannot let that show. She might go overboard if she notices my honest reaction," Nick chuckled as he made known to the Principal his opinions. "Do you mind if I ask, who is Kate Taylor to you?" Francis cautiously stated. "But no need to answer if you don't want to. I can't help but curious, you know," he snorted. The two men shared soft laughter, an
The Wild Adventures Sleep talking Kate
"Huh?!" Kate was startled to hear Nick ask. She thought only her nose heard what her mouth said. How come Nick's ear did when she isn't even sure her own ears heard them? This man is so scary. You can never hide anything from him! "Weren't you saying anything?" Nick asked again. "Mhmm... nnnno...thing..."Kate stammered. She just hopes her face is convincing enough to satisfy him that she meant what she just said. She cannot tell him what she murmured a while ago, no matter if he strangled her to say it out loud, anyway. "We are going to speak to a lawyer. I suggest you say everything that would be helpful to solve this issue," Nick did not look at her as he spoke. He knew she was walking behind him, so he informed her of where they were going next. Kate felt even smaller in front of Nick with how he can manage and deal with everything son smartly. He took her to the company. The lawyer came te
