Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

So all in all, her aunt was so excited by the idea of Adaline taking a break that she had managed to book everything yesterday itself. She did not even let Adaline do something but remembered to ask her opinion about everything since this was about Adaline itself.

It only confirmed that there was no limit to the speed of a human could carry out a work to be completed if they wanted it to be done. It could be completed in minutes too. 

Thursday had rolled by and she was walking home from school. Her shoulders were sagged from the day, it was exceptionally tiring as two teachers were not available and Adaline had made sure that she had completed her homework over the course of time. Even though, everyone was busy talking she had completed her homework which would make her free for the weekend. Friday was tomorrow and she was going to enjoy the little break that she is going to have alone and away from everyone she knew. Frankly, she had made sure that no one from high school knew about the Hike because of the knew, then someone would be talking about it and through someone rumours would spread and somehow the whole school would know about it. Also they had provided a list of participants. 

Think of it, maybe this was everything she needed. Being away from people for short while.

It might be just perfect. A getaway that she desperately needed with no one around her to remind her of the painful past and just letting her live in the moment. Finally. 

She heard laughter which had her immediately look into its direction. The girls were laughing and so were boys. This seemed to be a small group of friends who enjoying together is they walked outside a diner. They were high-fied each other and it appeared that they had an inside job going on because the girls animated actions were making everyone laugh which was clearly mimicking. 

Diner, she thought painfully. 

She remembered those days as clear as she could. Xavier and her often used to go the diners and restaurants that would have fast food. She loves to eat and talk and she knew that he had noticed that which is why they always went to such eating places.

In the time of seven months she had noticed a lot of things one of the were how he used to take care of her and she never noticed that on the spot. Perhaps it was right when they said that distance only made love stronger. She had realised so many things while she was away from him. 

He always had extra napkins in his backpack because of her who was a messy eater. No matter whereever they went he would also have extra cutlery with him that was plastic and washable. It was for her. She would always need it. 

He would always text her good night before going to sleep and whenever she woke up she would always find a good morning text from him. It was romantic and she always looked forward to it. 

He was very disciplined and always went to bed early and woke up early too. How was it possible that she had never noticed any of the us when she was with them brother when they were miles apart?

Nevermind that.

He was not here. He was never going to be here. She felt the tears coming to her eyes. Even though deep inside her heart there was a draw filled up to the brim with the love she had for Xavier she knew that it was locked and there was a possibility that it might not be opened every again. 

Her nose caught the smell of chicken and meat along with freshly toasted bread and she looked how to find the sub station. It was too aromatic! 

All this time after her father's death, and coming here she had felt hungry almost all of the time and her aunt never commented on it which she was thankful for but Adeline knew that had diet was increased. Infact, it as only increasing. But she thought that it was only a side effect from the medication and the damage her body had gone through. Maybe it was making up for the stuff that it had lost. 

But her aunt was already cooking a homemade lunch and she could not wait for it because it was way more tastier than buying something stale. Subway always seems to be something fresh and tasty and something so addicting that she could not help but always by one if she could. 

Because of which she literally started to run.

"Hey!" She called as soon as she reached the kitchen. "food?" She said hopefully which made her aunt laugh. 

"I had it already since I was too hungry. Your shares on the stove!" Tessa, by the end of the conversation had to yell because adaline had already started making a beeline towards the kitchen.

She plated for herself and then when to the living area where her aunt was.

"So, how was your day?" Her aunt asked as soon as she sat down.

"Good." She sighed and then blurted out, "I'm looking forward to going out on a trip." She looks to her aunt immediately with a slightly oops expression on her face. 

Tessa giggled. "It would be your first solo trip love. You're seventeen and already making such huge decisions. I am so proud of you!"

Her niece smiled in return.

She was turned seventeen three months ago but had chosen not to celebrate her birthday or even cut a cake because the death of her father had been too much to deal with and celebrations were the last thing on her mind.

But her aunt Tessa had still made her eat two bowls of ice cream.

She glanced at her aunt who as busy working. She was thankful to God that somehow managed to send Tessa her way because she had no idea how she would survive on her own or even with a close relative that was not her aunt.

She had been a constant anchor grounding Adeline whenever she needed someone to bring her back to life and from the limbo that she had been in. My life had been all black and white with her aunt had created a shade of grey which she appreciated the most.

Just like organising a solo trip for three days, inher aunt had done a lot more things for her to feel normal and overcome her grief. To be honest she had never expected her aunt to be such a constant support in her life. 

Maybe it was because losing her own parents had taught her the way of accepting the brief and moving on.

"I have packed your clothes. They are mostly winter clothes which is thick jackets and leggings but I also took the liberty to pack a few good clothes and a Burberry coat." She winked at Adeline, "You never know when a bonfire might be."

Adeline smiled and laughed a little at that. After finishing her so she washed her plate and kept it back. She then proceeded to go back to her room where she opened her closet and pulled out a small wooden box. She pulled out the crescent moon pendant that Xavier had given her. It still had the same shine on it and look as if it was new.

She took it in her palm and sat down on her bed. It was a beautiful pendant and she would love to wear it but it also had the worst memories attached to it.

Worst? She frowned at the thought. The fact that it was given by someone whom she truly love but had ended up turning her life upside down was accepting but the member is attached to this particular one and the guy by which it was given were beautiful.

Before she had ever known that supernatural existed and she was living amongst them her time with him had been the most beautiful one that she had ever had. It was the love that she had often seen or lightly remembered to be there between her mother and father. It was the love that she had finally received from someone. 

She sniffed as a tear fell from her eye as she looked at it. It had too many memories a charged to it, too many that she would like for it to have. 

The death of her father was now one of them too. It was something she could not let go of. 

"I do love you. . ." She croaked out. "But sometimes. . I just. .." Shaking her head, she just cried. She had no idea what to say all her feelings but jumbled up and they would still be so heavy that she will have no idea how she would carry them all her life.
