James POV
I had no idea what I could say next. I had been found out! I was out now right in front of her! I could not answer her question because I could my even speak, the words were simply stuck in my throat.
” I asked you a question James…. You… You are… You are a wolf?” She asked, her voice cracking and her eyes going wet with tears filling them up.
“I…. I…” I shut my eyes tight and nodded slowly.
It was useless denying, there was no way I could deny that the cut had been there and that it had suddenly healed up on its own.
“Cassie, I am very sorry that I kept this away…..” I held her hands but she jerked my hands off hers and ran out of the kitchen.
I pulled he apron off me, threw it to the flour and ran off to meet her. I met her after a little while and caught her arms.
I forced her into a hug and held her to me tightly, I never wanted to lose her, I just wanted to hold onto her and never let her leave me.
“Let go of me! I said let go of me!” She yelled, struggling with me but I wasn’t having it as I held her tightly to me.
“Let go of me! I hate you!” She yelled and got out of my grip.
“Cassie, you need to understand me, I swear I did not mean to….”
“Oh cut the crap James! It must be so fun for you, right?!” She yelled at me with tears streaming down her face.
“Cassie I…” I tried to talk but I did not even have an idea of what I could say to her and she was definitely not going to let me talk at all too.
“Do not talk to me! You lied to me! You freaking lied to me! You have been feeding me with nothing but lies! What more lies are there? You are still hiding other things from me, right?” She asked and I felt even more broken seeing the tears that streamed down her cheeks.
I wanted to hold her, hug her kiss her and tell her to stop crying but I could not. If it was someone else who made her cry this way, I would have probably killed that person and that person would already be right down in hell but then I was the reason behind her tears.
“Cassie, I did it all… I did it all just so I can be with you… I love you so much and I… I… I just wanted to be with you.” I tried to explain to her.
“No! You do not love me! You are going to meet your mate someday and dump me James! You are going to do that! You are only going to break me!” She yelled and I could feel the stream of pains in her voice.
“I promise you…. Cassie, I promise you I would never go for anyone apart from you, you are the only I would love in my life.” I said to her.
“Stop telling me your lies! I don’t want to hear any of it! Just let me be you betrayal!” She screamed at me and I sniffed too.
I was moved to tears, it was the first time I was feeling this deep feeling of hurt in my heart, I have never felt it sting so hard before.
“Yes, I lied to you, I know that but that is simply because I love you and I know you would stay away from me once you find out I am a wolf.”
“And yeah! I have found out now! And I am going to stay away from you right at this moment.” she said to me and turned to leave me but I quickly grabbed her wrist.
“I know you love me Cassie, so… Can’t…. can’t we just forget about what we are and…. And just love?” I asked her desperately and she turned to me.
“I can’t James! I don’t want to be with a wolf and more? I do not want to be with a liar like you!” She yelled at me and jerked her eyes off me while I stood right where she had left me.
My eyes were filled with tears, I didn’t think I could live without Cassie in my life anymore, I so much wanted her and I loved her so much, no one had made me fall so hard.
I wished I had not told her I wanted to cook with her, I wished that I did not tell her I would do the chopping, I wished that I did not talk to her naughtily, then she would not have hit my arm and the knife in my hand would not have given me a cut that healed up right in front of her.
“I…. I knew we would not be able to keep the secret totally.” my wolf side, Kim said to me, he too liked Cassie, was there anyone in their right senses who would not love such a cute soul like Cassie?
If there was any, then that person deserved to be checked in a mental institution. I slipped to the floor and palmed my face. I sent my fingers through my hair, raking my hands through the silky hair and pulling at it in frustration.
Different thoughts went through my head, what if she left me and never came back to me? What if she does not talk to me for years? What if she goes to meet some other guy? What if she never wants to see my face and starts to detest me.
I could not even think properly on how I was supposed to gain her back. I knew she was feeling cheated at the moment and I was guilty for that.
“I love you so much Cassie, I really do love you.” I mumbled and at that meeting, I saw her emerge and approach me.
I quickly got up from the floor where I was sitting, hoping that she maybe decided to just forget about it and we could just go on with our sweet romance life.
“Thanks for coming back to me Cassie.” I said abd hugged her tightly, hoping badly that she was really back to me even when I knew that it was almost too good to be true.
“Let go of me!” She struggled with me and got out of my embrace.
“I came here to give this to you.” she said to me and pulled off the necklace that I had given to her off her neck. My eyes watered the more and it was taking me all the manliness in me not to burst out crying right now.
“No…. Cassie…. no, you cannot be doing this to me.” I shook my head but she thrusted it into my arms.
“I… I… I am done… I am done with you.” she broke into another round of tears and ran out of my sight.
I am such a fool!
