The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 1177: Kayden (5)



Chapter 1177: Kayden (5)

Kayden felt his pride hurt when he did this. Because, how not? For these two whole days, he had followed Tiana like a creepy stalker.

Seriously?! He is the future supreme alpha from the largest pack, who is respected by all shifters. Just by hearing his last name, they would know what kind of problem they were dealing with. He is a descendant of Torak Donovan, a highly respected noble lycan.

Well, Kayden could write all that stuff down for the next two hours, but what he was doing now, didn't match up to his background and the great things that entail behind his name, because right now, the future supreme alpha, was hiding in the dark, narrow alley only to follow his mate who had just come out of the house after shutting herself in for two whole days.

Yes, after that incident, Tiana really locked herself up and that action made Kayden worried to death. If it weren't for the smell of food wafting in the air, indicating that the girl was cooking for herself, then Kayden would have definitely broke into the house.

"Tsk!" Kayden clicked his tongue in annoyance. Annoyed at the fact that he had to approach Tiana so slowly.

This feeling was almost the same as someone who wanted to run, but was forced to walk slowly. It was really frustrating.

After carefully considering a stupid scenario in his head, Kayden walked into the same supermarket that Tiana entered.

Quickly, Kayden knew where the woman was. Therefore, he easily carried out his plan.

Kayden walked towards the aisle where Tiana was looking for spices while Kayden took some sauces that were on the same shelf.

"Oh, you…" Tiana noticed Kayden first. Of course she had to notice him first, because that was the plan.

"Hi, we meet again," Kayden said quietly, like a mumble. He had to maintain his pretense so as not to make Tiana suspicious.

"You are here?" Tiana asked suspiciously. "Do you live nearby?"

As Kayden had guessed, this girl immediately assumed the worst. He couldn't blame her, because after what happened, it was better to be wary.

"Oh, yes… I live not far from here." Kayden rented a fully furnished house, which was two blocks from Tiana's, because it was the closest house he could find, and cost almost all the money Sean gave him.

Sean would have killed him if he found out about this. Maybe later he would ask Micah for help if Sean refused to lend him some money again...

See? He almost like a beggar.

Ugh!

Actually Kayden just needed to go home and apologize to his father and this would be over, he just didn't want to do that. His ego was still too high and the money he had was still enough to last him a few more weeks…

"I wanted to say that we were actually neighbors, but at that time you looked so scare and wanted to be left alone, so I didn't get to say it." Kayden hoped the sentence he said didn't sound like he had remembered it.

"Oh, I am sorry about that…" Tiana looked unease for having a bad attitude towards Kayden, thinking that this man was stalking her.

Well, something better left unknown...

=================

"I think it's quite nice to have a little sister," Tiana said, her face looking much more radiant as she and Kayden walked home, while chatting.

Mostly, Kayden would tell about his childhood and also his sister who was very bossy and moody.

"You wouldn't say that if you met Aurora," Kayden said. He was actually just exaggerating, Aurora wasn't that bad. It's just that sometimes she could be annoying, especially when their father was always defending her.

Tiana smiled so sweetly that it made Kayden wanted to throw the groceries and kiss her sweet lips.

This was driving him crazy, the other shifters have definitely marked their mate by now, but Kayden? Not even a hug.

It wasn't that Kayden didn't like their chat, of course he did, it was just that this long progress between them was really frustrating. The impatient trait that he got from his father put him in so much trouble in situation like this.

He wanted to tell Tiana that he was a shifter, but of course Kayden wouldn't do that. This girl would run to the ends of the world when he said that.

"Even though you complain about your sister, I can see that you really love her," Tiana said softly.

Now, they had arrived in front of Tiana's house and Kayden stopped on the terrace. Waiting for what his mate would do, he didn't have a choice, but to walk in her pace.

"Well, you could say that." And after that, there was silence that enveloped the two of them.

"Want to stop by? I'll cook lunch," Tiana asked in a slightly unsure voice. She fidgeted nervously, as she was about to invite a stranger into her house, but Kayden was being very sweet and after a toxic relationship with Oliver, Kayden's attitude made her feel better.

"It's okay... I'll cook at home..." Kayden tried to refuse, because he knew that Tiana felt uncomfortable.

"It's okay, I can cook something for you," Tiana said.

"Okay if you insist."

And with that, Kayden walked into Tiana's house and put her groceries there.

Tiana lives alone after her grandmother's death, as her parents live in different city.

=================

The lunch was meaningful for Kayden, because after that, Tiana seemed more at ease with him and more accepting of his presence, but of course Kayden could see that Tiana was still very hesitant and refused to make the relationship between them more than friends.

Kayden understood.

On the third day after lunch, Tiana returned to her part- time job at a restaurant.

Oliver didn't even approach Tiana as she expected, so this time she felt safe enough to leave the house. Maybe she really didn't mean much to the psycho guy and that was a good thing.

One night, Kayden came to the restaurant where Tiana worked, to take her home, because she got the night shift.

And it was the right decision in Kayden's life because right at that moment, Oliver decided to show up and spoil the mood.

"This restaurant is almost closing," said Tiana, when she found Kayden waving his hand while standing at the door.

"I came to pick you up, I just came back and passed this restaurant, so we can go home together." Well, that's not true, Kayden had purposely come to walk home with Tiana because he was worried.

Tiana laughed softly. "Wait for me ten minutes here," said Tiana, who immediately walked into the restaurant again, rushing to finish her task with her five other colleagues.

Only, the ten minutes promised had gone by ten minutes ago and the girl still hadn't show up.

Kayden felt suspicious and walked towards the back door of the restaurant which was on the other side of the street where he was waiting and found Oliver, who was raising his hand and backhanded Tiana very hard.

The sound of Tiana screaming in pain was the only thing Kayden heard before he ran to Oliver in a fury that made his body tremble.

Don't kill him. Don't kill him. Don't kill him.

Kayden repeated the sentence, reminding himself that he was not allowed to kill.

But, when Kayden saw the smile on Oliver's lips and the tears rolled down Tiana's cheeks, he lost control.

Kayden ran at full speed and slammed his fist into one of the five men who had come with Oliver here.

The man was hurled to the other side of the wall and fell unconscious there.

"Let her go." Kayden's voice was so deep and harsh it made everyone who heard him tremble, including Oliver, but the man refused to bow to him.

Instead, all he did was pull a gun out of his pocket and point it at Kayden.

Of course seeing that, Tiana screamed in fear. She tried to free herself from the two men holding him, but to no avail.

"Stop it Oliver! You can kill him!" cried Tiana scared.

However, Oliver glanced at Tiana and smiled happily. "That's exactly what I wanted," he said calmly.

"You are crazy!"

And along with Tiana's scream, Oliver shot his bullet right into Oliver's shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill him that quickly," Oliver said, laughing happily when he saw the blood from Kayden's shoulder, but the man just walked up to him very fast and snatched the gun from Oliver's hand, tossing it to the other side.

Kayden looked completely unaffected by the wound on his shoulder and this made Oliver widen his eyes in disbelief.

In the end, three other people who saw that Oliver was easily defeated by Kayden in a barrage of blows, immediately came to his aid, releasing Tiana.

At that moment, Tiana looked terrified as Kayden had to face the four people who ganged up on him.

Tiana wanted to help, but didn't know what she should do, while the five-man fight blocked the only way for Tiana to go and ask for help.

Just then, Tiana saw one of them pull out another gun and was about to shoot Kayden.

It was unknown what possessed Tiana, but she immediately grabbed Oliver's gun that Kayden had thrown earlier and aimed it at the man.

Tiana knew how to hold a gun, Oliver once taught her.

And a gunshot filled the night in that dark alley.
