Mated to My Enemy novel Chapter 17

I leave quickly out of the room not giving her another chance to talk and reject me more.

I quickly go down stairs into the kitchen to cook something. For some reason, cooking has always calmed me down. I grab all the ingredients to make some lasagna, because I'm really craving it.

I start preparing everything and I hear someone call my name. I turn around and see her.

Daphne's POV

I step out of the room this time without my crutches since my ankle doesn't really hurt anymore and I go down the corridor looking for Arron. Nothing. I hear some noise downstairs. Maybe Arron is downstairs?

I go down the stairs and I look for him in the living room. Nothing. I look further and nothing. I decide to look in the kitchen. And there he is. Cooking?

"Arron," I say.

He turns around and sees me and he looks surprised to see me, but mad at the same time.

"Arron, you didn't give me a chance to-" I start but surprise surprise I get interrupted again.

"No Daphne, it's fine, lets not talk about this anymore," he saids looking hurt.

"No, just let me explai-" I start again but am interrupted once again.

I'm getting fed up with this!

"No, I said let's not talk-" he said but I interrupted him this time.

"Would you stop interrupting and let me finish my sentence!" I snap.

He nods and I start again much more calmer.

"What I was going to tell you, was that I feel the same way, I like you," I said.

He stayed silent. Oh no is he going to reject me now?

He then gives me a huge smile and walks towards me. He wraps his arms around me and starts leaning towards me. I lean towards him.

Just then Sydney walks into the kitchen and we jump apart.

"Whoops sorry, didn't know it was getting hot in here," she saids with a smirk and starts leaving.

Arron growls at her while my face gets as red as a baboons butt. He looks at me blushing and he gives a smile. A smile that I could get lost in and never find a way out. And I wouldn't want to.

After I realize what I was thinking, my face gets even redder. He sees and gives out a chuckle.

"Let's go out on a date later today," he saids.

"Okay," I say.

"Well, go ahead and get ready, I'll do the same," he tells me.

"I want my makeup to be natural," I tell her.

She nods and gets to work. She puts my hair in a pony tail but curls the end. She then does my makeup. She puts concealer, powder, blush, a light pink eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, and a nude pink gloss.

After an hour I'm all done and I go downstairs to meet up with Arron. I see him in the living room watching tv. And may I add looking very hot. Oh gosh, I don't ever think like that!

He turns around and sees me and he smiles.

"You look beautiful," he saids.

"Thank you," I tell him.

He grabs my hand and leads me out the door. We go into his car and we start driving away.

"Where are we going?" I ask him.

"Well first we're going to get some coffee. I know how much you love your coffee," he saids with a smile.

I laugh and nod. We drive to the cafe' and once we get there, he gets out of the car and opens the door for me. I thank him and we go inside. He tells me to sit down while he orders.

So I do. As I wait for him I look out the window. I see a guy that looks a lot like Zander walk by and into the alley way that's next to the cafe'. Is that him?

I decide to go and check because I haven't talked to him on the longest time. I go out the cafe' and follow him into the alley way. I lose him for a second but then I see him again, drinking blood from an animal!
