The Night Wolf novel Chapter 44

But what mattered most was that no one would call her, normally there aren't many people calling her, but when you are dealing with lemons, life pours bitter lemonade over you. Willow was very worried that someone would call her at this crucial moment, but she didn't show anything on her face.

Truly, Willow was reconsidering about joining an art college after high school, but now she wondered if she should join acting.

"Sure,"

"Mhm, mom will be back in a few days."

"Okay then, I'll see you soon. Bye." Willow kept her phone face down on the table. She couldn't risk anything.

Willow smiled apologetically at Rowan's parents.

"Looks like little brother's mate can't stay here." Said Dane. "A pity."

Willow wondered what was wrong with them, her acting was top notch, but she didn't fuss over it for long. "I'm so sorry, but my cousin will be coming over to stay, so I'll have to leave. I actually wanted to stay here, but," Willow trailed off shrugging her shoulders, her face showing how regretful she felt.

"Oh! It's okay honey. You should head back home." Said Leona smiling at her.

"We'll be leaving soon." Said Rowan.

"You can stay," Said Willow. "If you want to." Though Willow didn't want to leave without Rowan, but she didn't want to sperate Rowan from his family.

"I want to go back with you."

Willow wasn't going to stop him. She didn't want to, in the first place.

A chuckle resounded in the room which had quieted down. Willow felt chills run up her spine. "I don't believe this. She's a human, she doesn't know the first thing about a Vampire and we're here waiting for her to rule over us. She's going to lead us to destruction!"

That wasn't true Willow knew the first thing about a Vampire, which happens to be the fact that they live on blood. She mentally huffed.

"Easton." Called the King.

"What? Am I wrong?" Said Easton. "We don't even know for sure if she's his mate! Rowan is not even eighteen."

"I know." Said Rowan. "I'm sure that Willow is my mate."

Easton scoffed.

"I'll be turning eighteen soon, you don't have to worry for me brother." Rowan picked up the glass beside him, which Willow had noticed had been untouched throughout the meal. She saw him grimace after sipping it.

"My whole family is made of Vampires, though my mother might be a part faerie,"

"Your mother is a faerie? Faeries are real?" Willow was filled with amazement. If there was a favourite supernatural creature Willow liked then it was faeries. She had planned her dream wedding to Rhysand after read A Court of Thorns and Roses.

"Well, my great grandmother is a faerie."

"Doesn't that make you a part faerie? Why don't you have pointy ears?" Willow squinted at Rowan's ears.

"That's because my great-wait." Said Rowan. "The point is that Vampires have sensitive ears."

"Oh?" Willow furrowed her brows. Was he bragging? Willow gave Rowan a thumbs up. "That's cool."

"Is that all?"

Was he fishing for praises? Willow sighed before stretching her her hand and patting him on his head. Willow felt like the male lead from a K-drama, but the only thing separating them was the fact that she had to stand on her tip toes to do that. "You're aweso-" Willow's hand froze. "Oh."

"Yes." Rowan said, he was annoyed that she stopped rubbing his head. "Oh."
