||* KNIGHTLY "||
***
I was lost for words as I stared daggers at the figure standing in front of me, I walked around circling him, apart from the waves of different emotions surging through me like water, I was trying to make out what was happening to me, the feeling of meeting ones mate as I have read in the old books was rushing through my veins, I could feel my wolf trying to break free.
Who was this person, why am I feeling like I have found my mate and why does he look like a complete reflection of me if I stood in front of a mirror, he was looking at me too, possibly trying to figure out the questions am trying to figure out too, was he a werewolf too?
"Uhhmm, excuse me, but you are blocking my path, am Darren, if you will excuse me, you can tell me your name if we meet again, today am in a hurry," Darren said as he pushed me out of the way and walked past me to the shock and surprise of everybody, including my friends.
"Who was that, the nerve he has to lay his cripply fingers on you, Alpha, Zain said, looking very angry,
"You guys keep your rage down, it is our first day and everyone's attention is already on us, Zain please keep it low, look around you, all these humans are looking at us, ignore him for now."
"I don't trust him Alpha, I tried using his scent to find out if he was human or supernatural, but he had no scent as if his scent was clandestine," Celestine said,
"Why does he look so much like you Knightly, he is a replica of you, that is not a good thing, I smell trouble lurking," Xenos my Beta said,
Zain and Celestine both signed at Xenos statement, I could see the worry on their faces,
"Should we follow him, maybe we can find out more about him, Alpha," Vitaly and Riley asked at the same time,
"There will be no need for that, we are to keep a low profile here in school, remember, I will talk to my mother when I get back home."
School went uneventful for the rest of the day, well until break time, I and my friends went to the cafeteria to have lunch, while having lunch a group of six males and two females entered the cafeteria, pushing people out of the way as they walked to a table, the student that sat on the table already, packed up their things and left.
I scoffed at the cheap authority and aura that was emanating from him,
"That is Ben, he is a player in the football team, he plays midfield, and he is known to be the real-life prince of Dubai, women trope into his bed daily," Vitaly said,
"Trope into his bed which looks like that? I think human females are blind, " Riley said looking unimpressed,
" That's why it's not because of his looks that they trope in, it is said that he is a living Macbeth, he has all the sweet right words to say and he floors heart with his words," Vitaly added,
"That is even more disgusting, so if he is not the football captain, then who is it?" Zain asked,
"Oh, it's going to be a shocker," Vitaly said clapping his hands,
"Why?" I asked,
Just then, I heard the table crash, I turned around and my eyes met with him again, it was Darren,
"Now this is Darren, he is the captain of the football team, also plays the striker, the fastest runner in the institute, he is the college God, he has a fan club with the name, 'Worshipping our Adonis' he is a bully who gets off from whimpering victims, it is said that he is punishing you and you don't whimper, he will have you locked up, and of course, he has a very striking resemblance with you," Vitaly said
"I checked his family history, he doesn't have any connection with you Knightly," Riley said,
" Pathetic if you ask me," I said,
" I agree, " Celestine said.
I watched Darren walk into the cafeteria, his eyes locked with mine and we both held the look for a minute, he walked to his table where his friends were.
The girl went to him, he hugged her and kissed her right in the cafeteria,
I felt Ash wince inside me when my eyes locked with Darren again, I scoffed and turned to the table to continue my lunch.
A few minutes later, I felt the gear rise on my neck, I knew someone was behind me, but I didn't even bat an eye, I kept my focus on my meal,
"We meet again," Came Darren's voice. He was right behind me with his friends who I already hated, so I turned around and smiled at him.
"Yes?" I asked because I did not understand why he had to come to talk to me with his group of wannabe Alpha males,
"Well I told you my name earlier, it is only right and polite you tell me yours," Darren said and I scoffed hearing the word polite from him when his friends were the opposite of polite,
"Why do you have that rude reaction on your face you moron, the captain is asking you a question, when he asks a question, you answer," Ben said and I smirked at him, then I took one last look at Darren before going back to my meal, unknown to me, Ben attempted to grab me, but within a flash, Celestine had him held midair by his throat,
"Knightly, should I rip his throat out for the audacity," Celestine said,
I looked at Darren and his friends, the shock on their faces was amusing,
"My name is Knightly, and I just moved to this town with my friends and family newly, these are my friends, from the lady there, that is Celestine, Zain, the twins Riley and Vitaly and Xenos, we hope to have a peaceful school year and just so you know I am a full-fledged homosexual, I hear you guys are homophobic in this town, that is all there is to know about me," I said, " oh, one last thing, keep your dogs away from me if they are always going to be this manner less."
"Am sorry about that," Darren said,
"Why the fuck are you apologising to a fag, Ben said barely speaking out while being held by the throat,
" Shut up Ben," Darren said,
"Please can you ask your friend to release him?" Darren asked looking at my face, his eyes scanning through all the corners of my face,
" Release him Cels," I told Celestine, never taking my eyes off Darren, I saw him squirm uncomfortably at my gaze,
"Well these are my friends, well more like my teammates, the loud one is Ben, we have Connor, Brandon and Jaigo, the girl is Kassy, she is my girlfriend, my best friend isn't here, his name is Mylo.
" Was he the one I saw you with last night?" I asked Darren, smirking at the embarrassed look on his face.
"Yes," Darren said, as he fidgeted with his bag, I knew he was nervous, so I smiled at him. I am not a kiss-and-tell kind of person, I haven't even told my friends about what transpired between me and him at the club last night.
"We should get going, we have to practise, see you around, Knightly," Darren said as he took one last glance at me before leaving.
"What was that about?" Vitaly asked,
"Nothing, serious, just a mere sweet coincidence and mistake," I said giggling happily, I felt my wolf purring inside me, even though the fact that I and Darren were so much like each other, we still had distinct features that separated us from each other, I, for example, had long overflowing curls, my skin was fairer than his, and I was a foot taller than he was, my eyes colour were green and I had this habit of pulling at my curls every time I am talking.
Darren had beautiful teeth and the most beautiful blue eyes, he looked softer than I was, he looked beautiful and very feminine, and all I wanted was just to cuddle up to him.
Last night was a mistake, Darren was very drunk when he stumbled into the club bathroom, he stood to pee, and I was just stepping out of one of the bathroom stalls, I came up to the washing sink to wash my hands, and I looked up at him through the mirror, he was looking back at me, our eyes locked on each other for a while, until I stopped looking so I could clean my hands and go back to meet my friends at the bar, my wolf was feeling different emotions at that very moment, and it was not a good thing, I didn't even know who he was and why apart from the fact that he looked just like me but with short hair, my wolf was squinting and squirming happily.
I almost got to the door, when he pulled me back inside and kissed the moans out of me, he kissed me devouring my lips, and his hands were all over my back, drawing me tighter into him, I would have stopped him, but I didn't, I couldn't, I liked it and my wolf was enjoying it, so I just enjoyed the moment until he stopped kissing me and ran out of the bathroom stall and I just stood there trying to get myself and my wolf under control.
