Enemies Become Mates novel Chapter 16

"What do you want me to do then be mean?" Elliot asked like it was the most obvious thing.

"No...it's just feels weird to me. I don't know how to explain it." I said awkwardly and avoided eye contact.

I think it feels weird since it's a well known fact we can't stand each other and now we're being civil with each other. Like right now he's not the Elliot I've known, this is a nice Elliot that feels foreign. It's actually making me feel nervous, like my chest feels tight. I shook my head to clear my thoughts and grabbed my laptop. Cassie let's just focus on Shakespeare and nothing more trivial.

Yes let's keep our focus.

Elliot's POV

"What should we make our Sonnet about?" I asked as I was typing away. However I didn't hear a response, I looked up from my screen. I closed my eyes for a moment and took in a breath.

Of course she's sleeping.

For someone who hates me, she's a bit too comfortable to be sleeping in my room. You would think they would be on high alert, but here she is sleeping away. I closed my laptop and leaned back against on to the wall. Whatever I'll let her sleep, we've been working on this project for a long time today.

Naturally my attention went on her since she's quiet. Well she really doesn't talk a lot in the first place. Compare to her loud mouth brother's, she's quiet and usually just observe. I guess you can say she's quite the loner at school. Cassie doesn't really associate with anyone at school, at times she would help someone in need. Other than that she's just by herself and minds her business. You would expect someone with her specific background to be popular or people would flock to her but they don't.

"Her complexion doesn't look well still." My wolf Maddox said.

"Yeah I can see, that's why I'm letting her sleep." I sighed out and Maddox starting yelling in my head. I blocked him off because he was being a pain in the ass.

Maddox got on my ass about how I rejected her, which to be fair he had a right to be mad at me for. I admit my hatred for her is the reason why I did reject her, a shitty excuse that I will acknowledge. Me and her always budded head with each other, that I never thought in a million years she would end up as my mate. I'm pretty sure she didn't want me as a mate either, so I didn't think much of it.
