Wicked (Kellic)

three

I walked into the pack's Alpha house quietly, hoping that I'd be able to go to my room, but I was stopped by my mother, who look disappointed. 

"Kellin Quinn Bostwick, why are you home this early? You aren't supposed to be home yet!"

"Marcus was a tramp and a waste of time-" My voice began to get quiet "well maybe not a complete waste of time. I did encounter someone thanks to him..." I glanced at my mother to see what her reaction was.

"Are you saying that you abandoned Marcus because you saw someone that interested you or is this some excuse that you're going to use for leaving him?" 

"Well..." I cleared my throat, wagering my options on revealing this information to my mother. "I saw someone that seemed charming.

My mother made an excited sound the moment she processed that information. Even if I had refused to tell her about this person, she'd pester me until I told her about them. 

I might as well tell her now, I thought to myself.

"I'm not for sure what pack he belongs to, though- the guy I'm interested in, I mean." I sat down at the table that my mother guided me to. "I did catch his name, though!"

"Oh, Kellin. Please tell me about him."She seemed to be the happiest I have ever seen her today.

"I don't even know where to begin! " I exasperated. 

"Tell me his name, honey. I'd love to know who it is you're interested in."

"His name is Vic Fuentes, and I am not for sure if he is the one. I don't know him that well, yet. "

"Vic Fuentes? The Vic Fuentes?" She questioned.

"Describe the Vic Fuentes for me, mother." I messed with the edges of my blazer while I spoke.

"He's sort of short, maybe a little shorter than you, or maybe he's taller? I'm not for sure. Did the Vic you're talking about have dark brown hair? Brown eyes? Tan skin?" 

"Umm, yeah?" I said, acting like it was obvious.

"Oh dear. Your father will not be happy about this." She spoke more to herself. "Victor is supposed to be an Alpha soon. His father is deathly ill and due to him being the only heir to the position, he'll become Alpha. And you know what an Alpha needs? A mate. I'm not for sure if he has found a mate, which is why your father might not be too thrilled about this."

I shook my head subtly at my mother, it was more of acknowledgment than agreement.

"I don't even know Vic that well. I'd rather get to know him before even considering to be his mate.  You know that. Even if he does have a mate I'd love to be a friend of his." I paused briefly to take a drink of water my mother had set on the table prior to her taking a seat. "And that's a horrible thing to say, mother. At least have some sympathy for his ill father."

"If he does have a mate I'm keeping you away from him. There's no need for you to go and tease yourself with something you can't have." She took a drink from her steamy beverage.

It was quiet for a while before she decided to speak again.

"I'll inform your father about Vic Fuentes, in the mean time please get some rest. You look like you need some. We'll talk about this later." She kissed me on the forehead before leaving the room.

Shortly after she left I finished up my drink and climbed the stairway to my room, which was five doors down from my parent's room. After overhearing one of their amorous sessions, I requested a room farther from theirs. This room was the farthest they would allow me from them.
