Mated to My Enemy novel Chapter 20

"A-are you okay?" Arron asked softly.

"I- yeah, I'm just tired. Thanks for everything," I told him.

I got out of the car and waved at him. I walked up my driveway and unlocked the door.

"Daphne Kingston! Where have you been?!" I heard my dad yell as I came through the door.

Boo, and I thought I could sneak in and take a nap before having to deal with all this.

"I uh..." I started because I wasn't sure what I was going to tell him.

Oh yeah dad, I got attacked by a wolf and got saved by my enemy that is also a werewolf and then I saw one of best friends drinking blood from an animal and he's a vampire.

Yeah no.

"I-" I satires but got caut off as he came over to me and gave me a tight hug.

"Please don't do that again, I was worried sick!" He said still hugging me.

"Sorry, I promise," I told him.

He finally let me go and now is when I realized that he was crying. Now I feel really bad.

"Okay hunny, go on with whatever you were going to do, oh and your grounded," he said as he walked away.

I let out a sigh and went upstairs. I went into my room and grabbed a new pair of clothes and hooped in the shower. After I was done, I laid down on my bed. I thought I was never going to fall asleep, but I did pretty quickly. I slipped away in a problem free black blissful world.

Daphne's POV

I haven't talked to any of them in days. I've spoken only a couple words with Arron but nothing much. Everytime I see Zander or Kat in the halls, I avoid or try to ignore them as much as possible.

They've come over to my house countless times but I never open the door. My dad has asked why I don't want to see them but I just tell him that I'm mad at them. He lets the subject drop once he sees I don't want to talk about it.

I just can't seem to want to face them, its just- I don't know. But I do know that I'm going to have face them at some point. Just not right now.

Arron's POV

Daphne has been avoiding me and its killing me. We've spoken a couple words here and there but it's not enough. I always try to keep an eye on her by either going myself or sending a female warrior wolf to watch her to make sure she's safe. Above it all, the vampires are due to attack any day now.

"Hello! Hello?! Is that all you have to say after completely avoiding us for days?!" shouted Zander angrily.

Kat put a hand on his shoulder as I said, "Well what do you expect me to say? I just needed some time," I told them.

"Well you should have told us atleast," said Kat softer.

"Just like you told me," I said annoydly with sarcasm.

I don't need to give them an explanation especially since it was just some very much needed time to myself. Plus they didn't tell me so why shoud I?

"Look we're sorry but we really need to talk," said Zander more calmly now.

I sighed and said, "Fine, lets go into the living room."

We went into the living room and sat down. We sat there in silence until I broke the silence.

"Well?" I asked.

With a sigh, Zander said, "Well go ahead, I'll tell you everything you want to know."
