Chapter 4- Steven


    Today is the day I can finally go anywhere I want without have to babysit those brats. Well I can still


    bang chicks at my ce. I am really d that Austin offered to stay with me. I don’t like staying in this


    empty apartment for too unless it’s to sleep or sleep with someone.


    I am so mad at Cassidy for telling me to look after them, more like her. What’s so special about her?


    She is just a girl. Okay! She is beautiful. She has the brightest smile I have ever seen and her eyes,


    they are like molten dark chocte and skin is so pale but a beautiful pale. If I wasn’t so sure she


    smells like human, I would have said she is a vampire like me and Austin. She is not my type though so


    I don’t really have a reason to pay attention to her. Austin on the other hand seems to like. I can tell by


    the looks he give her but he won’t make a move. Why? Well we both saw the bite mark on her neck


    which means she is werewolf’s mate. I saw the mark on the guy’s neck as well. The question is what


    they are doing so far away from their packs. Werewolves usually don’t allow their pack members to


    wonder around ces. From what I know, they get married at eighteen and the mates of the mutts are


    not allowed to leave the town the pack dwells in. It’s not like I don’t like the werewolves. I am just not


    very fond of them.


    When I asked Cassidy about why she gave them the apartment, she said the girl, Amara will be


    needing our help. She had a premonition about it so she took them in. She really confuses me


    sometimes. If she wasn’t an old friend of mum, I would have given her a bird and left but she helped


    me a lot when I was going through hard time. To top it all, she will curse me to hell if I didn’t listen to


    her. She is a damn good witch and so is Grayson. You do not want to cross that warlock in a battle. You


    will never know what hit you.


    But why would a mate of a werewolf need us? Have they ran away from their packs? She seem to talk


    to him once in a while and besides I once heard her telling one of the people working in the café that


    she has a boyfriend. Or is she cheating on him? Nahh that can’t be the case. She doesn’t look to be


    that type. Well I shouldn’t care that much as Cassidy and Grayson will be back today and I will be off of


    babysitting duty. I can go back to my everyday life. It’s not like I wasn’t enjoying my life as usual


    anyways. I was doing what I do all the time and Austin was keeping an eye on those two. On the plus


    side I can finally leave the house.


    Austin told me that Amara was home today and Aaron went to work but will be back in the afternoon.


    He said something about her boyfriend’s birthday being today. See she is not someone to cheat. I know


    I re at her all the time but she is a nice girl. I just don’t want to get friendly with her and me being a


    vampire does not work in any of our favor. Well I don’t like to make friends anyways and I am seriously


    not interested in being friends with them. I went to the living room to find the front door open and voices


    of Austin and Amara reached my ears. Isn’t she supposed to be talking to her mate?


    I walked outside and peeked through the front door but they were so engrossed in their conversation,


    especially her, that they did not even pay any attention to me. Austin did not seem to be listing to a


    word. He was looking at her in a dazed expression. Geez dude! You are a vampire for heaven’s sake.


    Is he starting to like this girl romantically? Well I knew he liked her but didn’t knew it was till this extent.


    Amara on the other hand seemed to be talking about someone. She was talking animatedly. I heard


    Asher in the midst of it. Is that her mate? Must be or she wouldn’t be so happy talking about him. She is


    human but she can still feel the bond. It draws them to each other.


    Well I should stop my dear friend from falling for amitted person. It won’t take him anywhere. I


    cleared my throat loudly, sessfully snapping Austin out of his dream world. He looked quite


    embarrassed. I wanted tough at his face but stopped myself when I saw Amara looking at me with


    confusion and irritation.


    “What’s up?” I asked giving her a re and keeping my face nk.


    “None of your business.” She snapped.


    That was the very first time she ever snapped at me. She looks irritated at something… or someone. I


    wanted to grin at her difort but kept my face nk.


    “We were just talking Steven.” Austin replied. “What do you want?”


    Well someone didn’t like it that I interrupted his gazing foolishly session. I smirked at him to which he


    replied with a re.


    “I will see youter then Austin.” Amara grumbled and slid into her apartment.


    “Don’t say a word.” Austin grumbled after we heard her door lock.


    We entered my apartment and locked the door.


    “Someone seemed smitten by that little girl’s charm.” I said sniggering.


    “Oh shut up. She looked a little sad so I stopped to talk with her. That’s all.” He replied looking


    anywhere but me.


    “You know she has a mate right.” I asked signing.


    “Yeah.” He said looked at his folded hands on hisp.


    “Then why?”


    “I want a mate too.” He whispered. “And she perfect. Whoever this mutt is, is really lucky to have her. I


    wish I was her mate. But that won’t happen. She really loves that guy you know. You should have seen


    the way her eyes brightens up when his namees up or the way a smile stretches on her lips. I wish


    I had someone like that in my life.”


    “I know buddy but we can’t. Mine cheated on me for power and got herself killed. Yours chose a human


    over you, married him and died a long time ago. They left us Austin. They won’t being back. The


    only thing we can do is move on and enjoy our life as best as we can.”


    It hurts to say that but I have to be strong for him. I can say I am coping pretty well but I can’t say the


    same for him. He has it hard. He had to see his mate getting married, have kids, grow old and die. Her


    grandchildren are in college now.


    “Why are we so unlucky Steve? How can someone chose someone else above their mate?” He said


    sobbing.


    “It’s going to be alright Austin.” I said squeezing his shoulder.

    That’s the only thing I can do. I told him to move on but he wouldn’t. This is the first time I saw him


    showing any interest in a girl and she turned out to be someone else’s mate.


    “Steve.” I hummed in reply. “You remember what Cassidy said about Amara that she will need our


    help.” I nodded. “I am having a feeling her mate is going to cheat on her.” He said making me stiffen. “I


    am having this feeling since I saw herst night.”


    “But it will kill her. She is a human Austin.”


    My voice trembled for the first time in a decade. That was part of the reason Austin didn’t move on


    when his mate was alive. It would have killed her. The werewolf or vampire is not affected that much


    but human dies if their mate cheats on them. There is only one way to survive that too doesn’t work all


    the time and I am not sure if it works for humans at all. What are we going to do if that does happen?


    “I think I will take a walk outside to clear my head.” Austin said and stormed out of the apartment


    leaving me with my troubled thoughts.


    I don’t want her to die and I will do anything to save her.
