Stella POV.
After school, Theo stayed with us, he wanted to spend some extra time with me, and he wanted to tell me more about him, but the only person I wanted to spend time with was Calesti, and not him. I tried to stay next to her, to only talk to her, but Theo was feeling very possessive over me, he wouldn’t let me walk alone, and he kept holding me back near him, holding my hand and calling me sweet names, in another world and another day, I would loved his attention and care, but not today, today I hated all the possession he had toward me.
“Theo, I need the bathroom,” I lied, I just wanted to get away from him, just a little bit, I needed to be able to breathe for a moment.
“I can come along if you want,” Theo offered, and I gave him a side look, that’s the last thing I wanted from him, to come along with me to the bathroom.
“Theo, chill, come on little girl,” Calesti says offering me a hand, I took it and let her drag me out of his reach, we ran toward the bathroom where I could finally breathe in relief.
“Are you okay?” Calesti asked me, and I shook my head no, I didn’t feel okay, I felt on the verge of a breakdown, everything he did was pushing me toward a mental breakdown.
“What can I do to help?” Calesti asks me worried about me.
“I need to be able to breathe, but he won’t let me,” I say on the verge of tears, he’s not letting me go, he’s not letting me do anything, he’s been glued to my side the whole time.
“He’s just so attracted to you, he can’t pull himself away,” Calesti says and I gave her a side look, that doesn’t explain much.
“But I can’t breathe, I don’t like it, why can’t I just give him his soul and tell him to fuck off?” I ask her, with tears going down my face, it’s only been a day, and I can’t survive like this.
“I’m sorry sweetie, I’m really sorry, I’ll talk to Theo, do you want to go home?” she asks me and I nod, I don’t want to hang out anymore, I want to be in the safety of my own house.
“Yeah, then let’s go,” I say, we left the bathroom and went back toward the booth where we’ve been sitting, it’s not just us around here and all the eyes on me were driving me insane.
“We’re gonna leave,” I tell Theo and his eyes go dark.
“Why? We are having so much fun,” he says with a big pout, but the dark look on his eyes didn’t shift.
“I’m tired, I need to get home,” I answer him.
“I’ll drive you,” he says, he didn’t offer, he ordered.
“No, Calesti will take me home, thanks,” I say trying to reject his driving offer.
“It’s my job to drive you,” Theo says in the same voice.
“I’m sure it’s fine if Cici does it,” I say and walk away, ready to leave without him, but he follows us, when we got to the car, he jumped in, and pushed me toward his car.
“I’ll drop you home, it’s my job,” he says in a firm voice, and I knew that arguing won’t get me any farther with him.
“Fine,” I growl at him and go toward his car, I got in and slammed the door closed behind me, I gave him a look that said die and waited for him to drive me home.
“Your life is different now Stella, you got me, you can depend on me,” he assures me.
“No, thank you, I can depend on myself,” I assured him, as he started the drive toward my house.
“You don’t have to anymore, you can just depend on me,” he says but I wouldn’t just do that, I don’t know him enough to do that, he’s a psycho.
“You’re a psycho, you know that?” I note in an ice-cold voice.
“For you princess, I am,” Theo says with a sick smile on his face.
We made it home and he dropped me there, I didn’t stop to talk to him, I didn’t want to hear anything coming from him anymore, I ran right into the house, putting some distance between us two, I pretended to be okay, told mom everything was fine, and then went to my room, I closed my window, I’m gonna have to get a curtain, preferably a blackout one so I won’t be feeling this exposed to the outside world.
I did my homework and spent some time with my family, I kept my eyes on the window, and I made sure that there wasn’t any wolf out there, Theo tried messaging me again, but I ignored all of his messages, I messaged Cici a couple times, but she was busy talking with Finn, I need to know some more about their relation together, is my brother in danger?
I decided to talk with her tomorrow in person, she can lie while messaging, but if we’re eye to eye, she can’t be lying to me, hopefully. I decided that it was enough todaying for today, I went to bed early, I had school in the morning and I was exhausted mentally, I was feeling sadness, worry, and fear, I was terrified of everything that’s about to happen in my life, and what was gonna happen next, especially with me being Theo’s soul and all.
The next morning I woke up with a terrible headache, I was angry, no I was furious, but I didn’t understand my feelings, I didn’t understand the reason behind my anger, so I went with it, maybe I had a bad night, maybe it was bad dreams that I couldn’t remember now, I had no idea why I was pissed but I am.
I got ready for school, skipping breakfast, I wasn’t hungry, the rage was enough for me to start the day and maybe take over the world, Finn was extremly happy this morning, he had a giant stupid smile on his face which pissed me off some more.
“Do you want to eat sweetie?” Mom asks me and I gave her a side glare, she glared back, she’s not one to mess with, but look at me, I’m very pissed today.
“Drop the frown, you’re going to school and not war, sit down, have some food in you, that’s why you’re mad,” mom says in a firm voice, I got an apple, that counts as food enough for me, I turned to mom and took a big bite of it, chewing loudly.
“What’s wrong with Stella?” Dad says walking in the kitchen, he too was too happy, what is he happy about?
“That time of the month,” mom answers him, I wasn’t getting my period, or maybe I was, I had no idea, but I knew that I was very mad, and god helps whoever gets in my way today.
“I’ll keep my distance,” dad says, smart choice, I’m getting his ass if he gets anywhere near me.
“Who’s driving you to school? Do they know to keep their distance?” Mom asks Finn instead of asking me.
“Cici is driving me, I don’t know if she’s gonna join or use her broom to fly to school,” Finn says and I growled, I’m a wolf soul and I’m growling now, I’m going insane, I need to get rid of theo before I howl to the moon next.
“Finn, be nice to your sister,” dad scolds in a loud voice before he turns to him and whisper ‘good job,’ I rolled my eyes at them two, boys will forever be boys, even when they get older, or are young teenager.
“I’m coming along,” I say to Finn, I needed a ride to school.
“Great,” Finn says in a sarcastic voice.
I got in the car with them and noticed that Theo wasn’t there with us, I was less angry that he wasn’t here, but I’m still very angry at something, and everything, I wasn’t sure what I’m really angry at. When we got to the school, I decided not to talk to Calesti today, I was too angry to talk to her today, she didn’t deserve to be yelled at, or be mad at, she’s my one and only friend, so I’m being nice to her for now.
One of the royal of the school decided to talk to me today, they picked the worst day on planet earth, during the whole three-sixty-five days of the year, they picked today to talk to me? I’m pissed, they were just saying hello to me, and asking if I wanted to sit with them, I don’t know why I have turned into a popular kid, maybe because I’m with Theo? Well not with him, but they think I am, and I hate it, I hate the attention I’m getting out of him, it’s not one that I wanted to be honest.
I tried to get out of the conversation, I tried to be nice, but I wasn’t feeling that way, I wanted to yell and say that I’m not with Theo, they don’t need to talk to me just because they are friends with him, I’m not one of the royals, and I don’t want to be one.
“Why aren’t you answering me?” Theo asks me angrily, he came out of the blue and just came and yelled at me.
“What?” I say back in a matching tone, I too was pissed, more pissed than him.
“I’ve been messaging you,” he says and I shrugged, I just wasn’t feeling like answering.
“So?” I say out loud.
“I’ve missed you,” he says trying to hug me, but I pushed him off me, not wanting him to get even close to me.
“Don’t touch me like that,” I scold him.
“What’s wrong Stella?” he says looking at me with raised brow.
“Don’t touch me like that Theo, it’s not nice,” I scold him in a growl.
“Then don’t ignore me like that,” he says in a growl.
“I don’t want to talk to you, can you leave me in peace,” I say having enough with him.
“I can’t leave you, you’re my soul Stella,” he says again, we’re getting people’s attention now, I didn’t want to fight in front of the whole school, but I will if I have to.
“Then take your damn soul and leave me be,” I say in a bitter voice, turning and ready to leave, I didn’t want to be near him, I didn’t want to be his soul, I didn’t want him to be my wolf anymore, it’s all too bad, and it’s pissing me off.
“Stella,” he growls trying to pull me back, but I think that the anger had the best of me, it gave me super power, I pulled out of his hold and walked off, ignoring his yelling, ignorint his trial to get me back, I didn’t give a damn if he turned wolf and tried to kill me, let it all end now, I’m too angry for my own good.
