Chapter 80
KATHERINE;
“MATE. My wolf purrs again, while I keep staring at Tristan from the stairs. I was trying so hard to process what was going on. Why the hell was he my mate? How? My mate was Leo, so why the hell was my wolf calling out to Leo’s brother as my mate,
I didn’t utter a word but gripped my bag tight in my arms. Fear was so visible in my eyes because I needed an answer to what the hell just happened.
It must have been a mistake. My wolf must have been mistaken when it called out to him,
You feel it too right?”
I arched my brows at his question and rose to my feet,
“Feel what?”
“You don’t need to lie, Katherine, you can feel it too. The mate bond, but I’m not going to force you to say it. I know I can’t be the only one who feels it. You do too, but let’s talk it as slow as you want.“.
“What? You can’t be my mate. I have a mate already so how’s that even possible? I feel absolutely nothing, no mating bond at all.”
This has never happened to anyone before, so why did hell did it happen? First of all, it was Zane, then Leo, and now Tristan. Who the f*cking hell was my real mate.
“Where’s Tanya? I think it’s time to leave.” I said once I was tired of thinking about what had just happened. There was no way I would find my f*cking answers right here because if I keep looking at his face or his eyes I would be forced to believe he was my mate too. My wolf couldn’t be mistaken.
As an Omega, how the hell could I be blessed with three mates? This wasn’t a blessing, it was a f*cking curse,
“You know what? I’m leaving on my own. I guess I’ll call Tanya when I’m home.” I said and as I turned to walk away, he was standing right in front of me,
Damn, my head skipped a beat.
“The damn speed.” I muttered to myself as I shut my eyes to take a deep breath in and call down, “Please just leave me alone okay? You’re not my mate, and I’m not your mate. There must have been a misunderstanding here, but we’re not mate. I can’t be mated to my mate’s brother which I don’t even know. Besides, I think you’re the real bad person here. You came to me with a different identity even after knowing who I was.”
“I didn’t…” He paused but I raised my brows as I wanted to her what he was about to say,
“I didn’t know. The first time I met you, Katherine, I didn’t know. I just saw you and I was unsure of what my Lycan felt, and afterward, I did…”
I shut my eyes again,
“I’m so sorry, I just think I need some space to process all of this. I’m certain there’s some sort of mistake here so please, if you’d excuse me I’ll take my leave now,”
“Katherine wait…” Tanya’s voice stopped me from opening the door once I got to the entrance,
I turned to see her on the stairs,
“Can we leave now?”
“Please give me a minute and I’ll explain everything to you. Don’t you want to satisfy your curiosity?”

“We’ll do that in the car. For now, all I want is to leave this place.” I responded coldly, tightly gripping hold of my bag. I felt so uncomfortable and wanted so much to leave,
It’s fine Tanya. Take her home.” He stepped in, and I cocked my head towards him. I was angry at the fact that he had lied to me and that I had been made a fool of by all three of them, but I also couldn’t deny the fact that Tristan was way different from Leo. I’m character, Aura, and temper. He was rather very well–reserved,
“I love you, brother.” Tanya said and hugged him before she came to me.
Their relationship too, was how I had imagined her relationship with Leo to be when Tanya first arrived at the mansion. So did that mean he was the good brother or she was just closer to him than Leo? Damn, there was still so much that I didn’t understand and I had to find out.
“Come on, let’s leave. A nice place where we could talk before heading back to the mansion.” Tanya said and we began to walk out together.
As soon as I got to the car, I halted,
Ill drive. I don’t think you’re in a good condition to do that.”
She was right. I handed her the keys and got into the other seat. The engine was ignited immediately Tanya got in and she drove off. There was silence between us. While I was trying so hard to process everything that had happened back there, Tanya kept staring at me every 10 minutes.
“Did you know? Did you know that I was also my mate before now?” I questioned without staring at her.
“I didn’t know the first day you two met. Even the second day, after you asked me the strange question about somebody being able to compel others to do what exactly they wanted them to do, I figured out it could be Tristan, and when I went to meet up, he told me about it. I’m sorry for not telling you the truth all this time, but if Leo found out you know, things would be bizarre.”
Her last statement made me cock my head towards her immediately,
“What do you mean by that? Why is he trying so hard to hide his brother from the world? Did something happen?”
“I can’t say, but Leo can’t find out you know Tristan. He’ll find me wherever I am and I’ll be in a lot of trouble if he finds me. Promise me you’ll keep this a secret for as long as you can. At least till I dare to face my brother and tell him the truth.”
I went silent,
“I’m sorry, but I can’t promise you anything right now. If Leo reads my thoughts mistakenly, then he’ll be able to find it because this sure won’t leave my mind for a while.”
“I don’t know how, but you have something special Katherine. Leo would never be able to read your thoughts if you didn’t let him in. That’s how special you are. None of us would be able to use our abilities on you when you disagree so don’t let him trick you into thinking he knows what’s on your mind.”
“Really?” I questioned as I began to recall all the time he had told me he read my thoughts because I let my guard down and I chuckled,
That was just to get me scared or what?
‘Let’s head over to a restaurant so we can talk. I’ll tell you everything you need to know Katherine, I promise.” Tanya said and with a deep breath, I nodded my head.

if you’ve come this far.
Jackson ran as fast as he could into the hospital after he halted his bike and stepped down from it. Since half of the money was ready, he was certain that the treatment would start as soon as possible. The remaining half depended on the success of the job he was given and right now he was desperate so there was no way he could mess things up.
“Rose Kaylee please.”
“Alright. Room 211, you may go in.” The nurse at the counter said and he immediately began to run in.
Three damn days and he had not seen his little sis because of how busy he was. When Jackson got to the entrance, he opened the door and walked in.
As usual, Rose was asleep the usual way she had been three days ago. It felt more like she was dead, but he didn’t want to believe that,
“Hey sis, big brother is here to see you again,” Jackson uttered and sat down close to her,
“I’m so sorry I’ve been unable to visit you for some time. I’ve been working so hard to ensure you leave here with life. You have to fight it. Fight death and stay with me okay? I really can’t do anything in this world without you.”
She was his only family in the world, and he couldn’t lose her like he had lost his parents,
your
“I wish you’d open your eyes and tell me anything. Just say anything and I’ll listen to you no matter what it is. I miss
you so much.”
He took her hand and began to caress it gently, “I’m not giving up on you no matter what. I’ve come too far to ever give up on you Rose, I have. Just hold on a little, we’re almost there.”
The door opened, and a lady in a blue outfit walked right in,
“Mr Jackson, the doctor would like to see you.”
He rose to his feet,
“Alright, shall we,” Jackson uttered and when the woman nodded, he began to trail behind her. As soon as he got to the entrance, he took one last look at Rose’s body and heaved,
Then he thought,
It wouldn’t be long now. It wouldn’t be long to see her pretty eyes and her smile once again.
