Every Rose Has it's Thorns

Chapter 12: A Little Deeper

*Kayden's POV*

I saw Mya run out of the building, with tears threating to fall. I wanted to run after her but she shifted and than ran off. I decided I would track her after I spoke with Storm.

I walked into the office.

"Hello?" I asked. I didn't really hear anything but than there was a grunt.

"Kay?" I heard a weak Storm voice. I was relived that he was talking again, even if it had been only my nickname. I walked down the hall and scented him out. There was the human boy, Dr. Shelby and Storm laying in the bed. Storm laid eyes on me, I smiled to see that my step brother was alright. But than he frowned.

"Do you know where Mya is?" he questioned me. I paused debating if I should tell him that I saw her run off or if I should just say I didn't know.

"Umm... I thought you knew because she flew out of here like there was a fire on the end of her tail." I looked at him and saw a hurt look wash over him. He looked over to the human boy.

"Do you know where she went, Matt?" Storm growled at him.

"N-no sir, I do not." 'Matt' looked scared and like he was to fly out of here himself. I noticed the banges around Storm's torso.

"What the heck happened to you?" I asked.

"Got shot, but it's not a big deal. We need to find Mya." I lost it at his answer.

"NOT A BIG DEAL?! YOU COULD HAVE DIED!" I screamed at him. "Wait, who in hell was in their right mind to even shoot you?" Storm got a cold look over his face.

"Matt doesn't know. His story is that he was just pulling into the driveway, heard the gun shot and raced inside to find me shot and Mya laying on the ground with me. I was going to ask Mya but I haven't gotten the chance to do so." I saw his alpha side surface and I knew that he doesn't care if he was shot or on his death bed, all he cares is about his mate being safe. 'How ever so sweet' I thought as a ghost smile crept up onto my face.

*FlashBack*

"Kayden! Come on the water is great!" I heard Cole call from the lake water. I smiled and shook my head. Cole frowned at me.

"Babe... Don't make me come and get you now." He voice went deeper as he warned me. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"You wouldn't dare." I saw him swim over, his dark black hair wet from the water and green eyes that you feel as if they could see right threw you, yet they held a charming look. He had a 8 pack with a v line. Saying he was fit was an under statement, so was saying that he was hot. I didn't even notice he was standing right in front of me until he pick me up, I wrapped my legs around his torso and my arms around his neck. He kissed me. I totally was drunk off this boy, well he was a little bit older than me and he was the beta of the Midnight Sun Pack, the same pack as Sam, well duh they are brother and sister. But I totally love my mate, I never want him to go. I felt a smirk under my lips and before I knew it, I was under water.

*End of FlashBack*

I cleared my throat and said I was going for a run. Storm nodded and then Matt offered to tag along. I shook my head at first, "You'll never keep up with me boy." I snarled at him.

"Then take a walk, Kayden." Storm stated. I knew I wasn't going to get myself out of this one, so I was forced to agree. I walked out with Matt on my heels.

"You don't have to walk so close to me, boy." I said with an irritated hint in my voice. I heard him mumble 'sorry' and him walking not so close to me anymore.

"Sooo...." He started as if he wanted to ask something important.

"So what?" I looked over my shoulder at him as I opened the doors.

"How do you know Mya?" He asked me.

"She's my brothers mate." I simply said.

"Storm is your brother?" He looked shocked.

"Step bro, but yeah. How do you know her?" I was interested in knowing this one.

"Um... awkward story, I was her boyfriend for 4 years and 4 months." He looked at the ground while I looked up towards the forest where we were walking to.

"Wow that is an awkward story." I sighed. 'I guess not everyone gets a happy-forever-after' I thought.

"Do you have a mate?" He asked. I felt my eyes darkened as he looked up at me.

"Had." I spat, as fists formed at my sides.

"Oh sorry. Um.. where are we going?" He looked at the beaten down path.

I was glad he changed the subject, even although I knew he wanted to know more.

"Just a walk, I guess." I shrugged slightly, trying hard to hid the urge to punch the tree I was walking past.

"Cool, cool." He said quietly and stuffed his slightly bloody hands into his short pockets.

We just walked for a while, we came to the boarder and walked a little bit along the boarder for a while. Of course, he almost crossed it, stupid humans...

"Hey these trees are bent over." He stopped walking.

"Well what do you expect-" I stopped as I faced to where he was talking about. They were bent at a weird angle. I quickly scented the air and noticed that I smelt blood, and one person that I wished not to smell, just for Storm's sake.

Mya.
