Veronica’s P.O.V.I analyzed that things were going to get interesting now, I could sense it in the atmosphere. The moment Ryan asked that question, I understood that Caleb was in trouble and my smug statement was going to work like a charm on it. I smiled when Caleb threw me out of that door and slammed it shut without even checking whether I left from there or not.
He is stupid.
I was standing patiently, leaning against the door with my ear plastered to it hearing the words that were being exchanged between my mate and his so-called best friend or should I say ex-best friend. The words that I heard were mostly from Ryan and only a few pleadings from Caleb.
God, he is such a coward.
I’m not going to deny the fact that Ryan is correct, he has pretty much figured me out when my own mate hasn’t. I also agree that I do feel the bond between me and Caleb but my want for Mason was much more than my need for Caleb. I am adamant about the fact of having Mason as mine and at the same time teaching that bitch some lesson; Caleb being my mate is just like a cherry on top. I already had a plan to ruin her but when Caleb turned out to be my mate, it just helped like a boon to me.
“You have until weekend. If you don’t tell everyone about that bitch by this Sunday; I swear on Bella that I will and when I do that, I’ll make sure to give them every detail about the same. Do you get it?” I hear Ryan say, his words shake me a little as it tramples my plan. I do have a plan but implementing it within a week is kind of hard to pull; I’m not yet totally prepared and so isn’t she. She told me it will take her a few days maybe even weeks to get the job done.
What am I supposed to do now?
All I could think off was that only Caleb could convince him for more time and I wished that he should be able to do it. But to my bad luck, he didn’t even get a chance to convince Ryan for it, that ass of a mate, did not even try that hard to convince Ryan.
What am I going to do?
As soon as I feel the door know move a little, I make a run for the staircase to avoid getting caught. Once I’m concealed enough, I peek around to check whether Ryan left or not, and to my dismay, he doesn’t for the next minute or two. Just as I’m about to move back towards the door, I hear the twisting of the knob and back off at the right moment as I see a very pissed Ryan leaving the storeroom followed by a stressed looking Caleb.
How much more pathetic can he be?
I see Caleb leaving the building, I’m damn sure that he is going home whereas Ryan walks towards his lecture hall. I turn to walk towards the football field, once I reach the spot; I get settled on the bleachers and take my phone out and call her. She needs to speed up her work or everything that I’ve worked hard for will be ruined. The phone rings a couple of times before disconnecting, making me think that either she is dead or avoiding me for some reason.
I open the message box as I text her;
Me: Where are you? And why the hell are you ignoring my calls? Call me right now it’s important.
I wait for her call, but it does not come at any point. I’m slowly losing my shit waiting for her call, when I hear my phone ding.
Bitch: I’m working my dear little cousin. I’ll call you when I’m free. Maybe in the evening.
Me: You think I like talking to you? A problem has arisen which needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Call me this instant.
Not even a minute passes, when my phone starts blasting out loud with her name flashing on the screen. As soon as I pick it up, her squeaky voice hits my ears saying, “This better be something serious. I can’t get fired because you are too much of a child to deal with some basic issues.” I’m busy comprehending her words when I hear her shout, “Speak the fuck up Cous.”
I clear my throat wetting it a little as I say, “His friend knows about us.”
“WHAT?” she shouts, before I could say anything, I hear her continue, “Didn’t I tell you to keep your legs closed for a few days; at least till we were done with our work?”
I nod, but she doesn’t see me do that and I realize it later that she can’t, so I squeak, “Yes.” Hearing my answer, she growls, “But being the slut that you are, you still had to do that; are you really that stupid Ver?”
“Hey, that wasn’t required bitch” I growl, but I soon realize my mistake when I hear her curse under her breath as she shouts, “Don’t you dare forget, whom you’re talking to, you piece of shit.” She is my cousin sister and the fact that she is elder than me and more powerful usually creates a problem between us. I might be a werewolf but I’m shit scared of her due to what she is and the powers she possesses; I’ve seen her punish her own brother for speaking rudely to her and let me just tell you, this happened when we were basically kids and he is still not to be found by his family. No one knows what happened to him except for me and my aunt, who really is less like an aunt and more like a sister as she is hardly a few years older than me.
I am brought back from my self-analysis mode, when I hear her ask, “Do you get it, bitch?” As if she could see me, my head tilts down to bow to agree with her on instinct as I mumble, “Yes, I do.”
“Good” I hear her say as she continues to ask, “What is it that you wanted to tell me, speak up fast; I’ve to go.”
“Ryan knows about us and he has given Caleb until weekend to come clean to his friends; we don’t have much time” I inform her as I hear her inhale a harsh breath, she releases it as she says, “All because you couldn’t keep it in your pants.” She pauses a little before continuing, “It’s almost ready. You get started with your part of the plan, from day after tomorrow and by the time the shit hits the fan, it will be ready.”
“Okay.”
“Just don’t fuck anything else right now and make sure you do everything as per the plan. Remember, you start from day after tomorrow” she notifies me one last time before disconnecting the call. I take a much-needed breath as I think to myself,
That went well.
