My Unwanted Mate 14
MY UNWANTED MATE📒❤
Chapter 14
"Keiran, where were you?" I asked with my arms folded. He sighed and stepped away from the window.
"I just wanted some time alone. Don't you ever feel like being alone once in a while?"
"Don't reply me with questions, Keiran. You have been behaving strange since you returned. Is that really you, Keiran? You can't even tell me where you were for the past six months?..." I paused when I realized this conversation was going nowhere.
He is like a fat rock that won't budge.
I took a deep breath as he remained mute.
I know what to do...
Leaving his room, I slammed the door so hard.
I found myself heading to the club where he normally spends time drinking with his friends. As I entered the unfriendly place, I could see girls doing a poll dance and some guys smoking around.
I approached the two sitting at a table. It was Hillary and Ace.
I sat on the third chair and they quickly looked at me.
"Umbrie? What...what brings you here?" Hillary asked stuttering.
"Wanted to ask you both some questions about Keiran. Something's wrong—" I paused when Hillary touched my hair removing something. He waved it in my face. It was a leaf.
"Have you been rolling in dirt?" Ace asked and I chuckled.
More like I've been walking through a forest.
"Are you guys going to help me?" I quizzed when I noticed the bored look on Hillary's face.
"I'm sorry, Umbrie. But I can't don't think I can help you." Hillary muttered and to my surprise, he got.up from the chair and walked away.
I slowly turned my head to Ace.
"Forget about him. He's such a loyal freak. Weird f**ker. So, what do you want to know Umbrie?"
I smiled at the positive response from Ace.
Wasn't really expecting Hillary to walk out from me.
"Well, he has been acting strange. You have been his friend for a long time. Do you notice any change, hmm? After he returned?" I asked having the detective vibes.
He sipped from the glass of what I presumed to be beer.
"Nothing much changed, I mean, He's still a cocky arsehole but he doesn't seem to remember some memories I've had with him. Like our favorite football club, he really didn't pass that one. He's a lot much caring now than his stupid 'i don't care' attitude. In all the same, I think he's changed now." He replied and I nodded.
So, my suspicions are right then. There's no going back. I can solve the mystery.
"Should I buy you a drink, sweetie?" Ace suddenly asked and I nervously shook my head.
"No...no. I'm fine. Enjoy!" I bid him before running off.
The skies were dark when I stepped out, I knew it was getting late.
I was walking past the people going into the club when a rough hand gripped mine. He dragged me the opposite way and I yelped.
"Let me go!" I yelled discovering they were two men.
"You little high school b**ch. You came alone?" The one holding me ruefully questioned.
All of a sudden, Hillary showed up and yanked the man off me. He forced them to back away before grabbing my wrist and leaving with me.
I was so startled. If Hillary didn't come to.my rescue, I would have given him a kick he'd never forget.
We got to his car and we entered in a jiffy.
"I will take you home." He said driving off from the parking lot.
I rolled my eyes.
"Don't bother. Stop the car, right now." I stated raising my voice.
"Stop being difficult, Umbrie."
"Well, you didn't want to help me back there. You didn't hear me out. You just walked away, why can't I do the same now?"
"Relax, okay. I have my reasons."
Yeah, right. I rolled my eyes. "I understand that you love Keiran so much to talk about him behind his back —"
"What the f**k? I don't love the idiot." He chuckled.
Then his voice came low. "I didn't want Ace to hear what I was gonna say so I waited outside for you. Are you ready for what I'm about to say?" He questioned wearing a smirk and I nodded vehemently.
"The truth is, Keiran didn't get abused or should I say, forced that night." He stopped talking as if letting me sink the words.
"He asked you to lie?" I speculated and he shook his head.
"Let me explain. He left for the bathroom but right after he left, I followed him because I was unease too. I saw him heading upstairs so I followed him. I was doing shocked when he started kissing a girl whom is a whore by the way. He just messed up with her which is not something he'd do. He doesn't like girls like that.. It was so strange to see. I rushed back to our table and after a long time, Ace and the others started looking for him and that's when we found him lying unconscious in an empty room. He told us he was drugged. I didn't believe him but I had to roll with it because I can't figure everything out."
I could feel my eyeballs sting. My heart was starting to melt off and it hurt bad.
He did it on purpose? He hurt me on purpose?
"But he called me...twenty times before that.." I stammered.
"Apparently, he was still adjusting to his crappy phone. I guess he accidentally set it on bomb calling. He had to get a new phone the next day. And also, I know Keiran is a werewolf. I'm not sure but I think I saw a wolf or something that night —"
"No no no. That can't be true." I denied, nervously waving my hands at him..
It's dangerous for him to know about us so I better clear his doubts right now.
"I think something really happened to Keiran while he was gone." He said and I nodded.
I could just ignore Keiran's confusing mystery but I'm scared that it might be something more serious than it seems and out of my ignorance, something bad might happen.
I brought out my phone and quickly checked my list of contact. Nope, his number wasn't there.
I switched to google, I searched Keiran's Father's office phone number.
Once I had it, I sent a message to book an appointment with him tomorrow. I think it's time I talk some sh*t into carefree parents no matter their wealth status.
