The Lycan’s Contract Mate

“What’s going on again? It seemed pretty serious, mind telling me?”

she asked and I told her everything that Kendrix had told me and what he wanted me to do for him.

“So, what are you going to do? Will you meet your dad for him?”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She asked after I finished telling her and I didn’t know how best to answer that.

“I don’t know Rose, I really want to help him but at the same time, I don’t want to have anything with my dad, Ken already told me not to worry about it and that he will find another way but I know my dad, he won’t help if he doesn’t get what he is requesting for and my dad is his best belt because he knows all the right people.”

I explained.

“If he said not to get involved then don’t, I bet he will find another way,”

Rose advised. “Rose, he asked me to help in the first place for a reason, if he had other means he wouldn’t have asked at all, I feel like a selfish person after all he did for me, I even tried to leave when he first asked,”

I lamented bitterly.

“Best, this is what we will do, you calm down and give it a couple of days, if you still feel the need to help, then you can go see your dad and speak your truth, you don’t have to do everything he wants.”

She advised and I nodded, grateful for her advice. I changed the topic after that and we went on to talk about her upcoming wedding. She told me the closer the day got the more nervous she became. I couldn’t relate to how she felt and I doubt I would ever be able to relate to it.

And that’s how I spent the next four days mainly helping win-rose with anything she required of me, having time for Raul and also some me time. One thing I did more was avoid Kendrix, I couldn’t even figure out why I kept myself away from him. Last night I saw him walking up the stairs and ran back to my room. Just thinking about it now made me feel ashamed, not like I can avoid him forever.

“Hi, good morning,”

He said as he walked into the kitchen, I wasn’t done eating yet but I was too much of a coward to sit with him so I got up right after he sat down and excused myself, running upstairs into my room.

“Now why did you have to run away like a coward, it is not like he was chasing you,”

Ae said in a mocking tone, I ignored her and went to lie on my bed. I stayed in my room until I was sure he was no longer in the house.

“Okay, that’s it, I can’t keep running away when I can just go to see Dad and be done with it,”

I said to myself as I got off the bed and got dressed, I left the house and got a cab to take me to my family house. When I got to the entrance, I was so close to turning back and going away, but I was determined to help Ken as little as I could.

“You can do it,”

I said as I knocked on the big gate and the security guard at the gate opened it. He was shocked to see me but at least he recognized me and let me in.

“My father is home, right?”

I asked to be sure, and he nodded and I walked the distance to the main house and straight to his home office, I wanted to be out of the house soon, I knocked on his office door and opened it, he was once again seated at his favorite spot, this time he had a cup on his hand, maybe coffee or tea.

“Dad, I don’t even know if I can still call you that, anyway, you asked to see me and here I am,”

I said and sat down without waiting for him to tell me because I was sure he wouldn’t tell me to himself, he looked at me like he wasn’t expecting, well, he wasn’t far from the truth, if it wasn’t for Ken I won’t even be here.

“You came? Who got you to come? Which of the young princes was able to persuade you to come?”

He asked. At first, I just sat there silent wondering why he sounded so excited, or maybe I was overthinking things, then I remembered why I was here in the first place.

“Kendrix did, now what do you want from me, George?”

I asked in a serious tone using his first name, he looked at me sternly and I returned the look not backing down.

“You haven’t been to see your brothers?”

He asked and I had to laugh, he was insane for asking me that.

“Excuse you? I don’t have brothers, I don’t even claim you, what makes you think I will claim any of your sons who never gave any fuck about me?”

I yelled at him.

“You should watch your tongue, young lady,”

He warned but I laughed.

“What do you want from me? Get it out now,”

I let out.

“You already know, why are you acting so stubborn? Do as I say and stop with your childishness, you are too grown for it,”

He said in a commanding voice.

“I could say the same for you, stop acting childish and start acting your age, also leave

The fuck alone, I am warning you to stop whatever you are doing, I showed my face, and now I will take my leave as it shows that you have nothing new to say to me,”

I said and stood up to leave.

“Sit down, Barrie, I am your father and you will listen to me,”

he barked.

“And I refuse to listen to you, leave me alone,”

I let out.

“You really are going to make me do things my way? I am telling you that if you don’t do as I say, you will regret it, when I am done, you will be back begging,”

He stated.

“Dad, I mean George, I don’t care what you want, or what you do, I am going to do what I want and live the way I want, you thought you did something by pushing me away and taking everything, newsflash Dad what you succeeded in doing was making me more independent, now more than ever, I don’t want to be associated with you,”

I let out, the old man was capping trash thinking I would come back to beg him, I did my best to help Ken because he was genuinely a good person but from here on I am not doing anything if it involves my dad, I walked away without answering to him and walked out of the house without stopping, it was only when I got into the cab back home that I remembered I had not even done anything for Kens cause.

“Fool, you are so stupid,”

I cried. I should have at least made sure he would honor his words to Ken, I didn’t want to go back so I just hoped he would at least be honest and do like he promised, if not, then Ken would have to find another way.
