Chapter 15
I blinked numerous times and tried to move. Ryan pushed the door
and said,
“I am not getting out, Aunt Joey will see me, if I do. I will come later to meet her. I just came here to drop you.”
I gulped and nodded at him. I did not know how he made me shut my
mouth in front of him.
However, one thing was sure. He had different mood swings. He did not stay in a playboy mood all the time. Sometimes he became serious which could make anyone tremble.
How could I forget? He was the son of Alpha Neil. He had the same
blood.
I got out of the car and headed to my house without looking back. I was so lost in my thoughts that I forgot to say bye to him.
I entered my house. I saw my mother was not in the living room.
“Mom?”
“Allison? Why did you come back early? Are you okay, my child?”
My mother came out of the kitchen and inquired about my health.
“I’m totally fine, mom. Just a headache. I thought about taking some rest at home. Maybe from tomorrow I will be regular.”
She smiled and caressed my hair. “Your health matters first. Go and take a rest.”
I went to my room and had a shower. Then lay on my bed.
When it was evening time, my phone rang.
I received the call, it was Teresa.
“Hello.”
“First tell me what is going on between you and Ryan?”
“What? Nothing.”
“Don’t lie to your best friend.”
I sighed and told her everything. She was quiet for some time. Then shouted at me.
“That bastard! She must be into you for some reason. I will break his leg. How dare he think that he has a chance?”
“What are you saying? Nothing is like that. How can he think to take a chance with me? I mean me and him? Impossible.”
“Listen to me. Don’t fall into his trap.
I tried to make her understand,
“Listen Teresa. He just told me to let go of my old feelings for his
brother, and that’s it. He did not say anything else. He said just move on and enjoy your life.”
“With whom? With him? That-”
“Okay okay. Calm down.”
Suddenly Teresa thought of something and spoke out,
“Wait a minute. What did he say about Ethan?”
“He just said that I should make Ethan regret everything and all. But I
told him when he drop me at home-”
“What?? He dropped you home???”
“Y-Yeah.”
“Then what? Did he try to do something?”
1 thought about how he came close to me. But he was just opening
the door anyway.
“No. He didn’t. In fact, he was very cold. I mean he did not look like how he behaved other times. He looked very profound during the
whole ride.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know.”
“You were saying something about telling him.”
“Yeah, I told him that I am not someone who can take revenge on someone. Then he said okay but be the new Allison and let others see what they have missed.”
I was waiting for Teresa’s reply. But she was quiet.
“Why are you silent, Teresa?”
“HE SAID RIGHT, HONEY.”
I moved my phone from my ear. She was so loud. What happened to her suddenly?
“What are you saying?” I asked while holding the phone close to my
ear again.
“Listen. He is totally right. I think he despised his brother so he also wants to take revenge by helping you. In that way, you two can have a win-win situation.”
I did not know what was wandering in my best friend’s mind. In a few minutes, Ryan was a bad boy in her eyes and the next moment she was saying that he was right!
“I am not like that.”
“Oh shut up. Didn’t you see how Ethan insulted you today?”
“So what can I do?”
“Just appreciate yourself and show him that you are happy without him. You moved on in your life and don’t love him anymore. All you have to do is ignore him. That’s it.”
I thought for a second. Teresa was right. In this way, I could really forget Ethan.
“Okay.”
“Okay, what?”
“I will do that. If that gives me a life then okay fine.”
Teresa cheered when she heard that. After talking with her I went
downstairs.
My father had already returned home from the pack house.
“My princess. How was your school?”
I sat down at the table to have dinner with my parents. I nodded at him. “It was good, Dad.”
“She was having a headache. So she came back earlier.” My mom
said.
“Do you want me to ask for a week’s leave from the Dean?”
“No, no, Dad. I will be regular from tomorrow. No need for that.”
“Allison, if you somehow feel heart broken, you have to move on in your life, okay? You know nowadays among kids, it’s very common to break up with your lover.”
I looked at my father. My mother nodded her head as she agreed with. my father.

“Don’t worry, Dad. Nothing is like that.”
“If you tell me that boy’s name, I will break his neck.”
I chuckled. Here was my strict father. He was strict with everyone to protect me. But with me, he was so good. I was his princess.
We had our dinner happily while talking about other things.
I went back to my room and changed my clothes into comfy ones. I lay on my bed. I tried to sleep because from tomorrow I had to catch up with my study properly.
The next morning I heard my phone’s ringtone.
“I know who it is. Teresa, who else?” I mumbled in sleep.
I let my phone ring for quite a good time. After a long time I slept well last night. So I did not want to wake up soon.
My mother came to my room and patted my shoulder.
“Your phone is ringing. Wake up.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“No, mom. It must be Teresa. She is definitely outside again. I am. sleepy.” I begged her to let me sleep more.
“But it’s from an unknown number.”
I opened my eyes and rubbed them.
“Unknown number?”
“Hmm. See.”
She gave me my phone. I took it and touched the green icon.
But the moment I held my phone close to my ear, I heard a chilly
voice.
“Good morning, Baby.”
