There's Always A Reason... [Book 1]

Chapter 30

Emily's POV

Where the hell did that jerk went? Damn! Please not to get Leila! I swear, sometimes I think he's jealous of Ryan. But, he wouldn't be. There's no possible reason.

I called that idiot and started walking back and forth since he ran somewhere after thrashing a cushion on my face. After sometime, he finally decided to pick up. 

"Yeah?" He asked. His voice was a little aggressive.

"Where are you?" I asked straightly.

"I just came out in front of you." He replied in confusion.

"Yeah, now where are you?" His innocence was irritating me as I said in a little hyper mode.

"I was just going to get Leila back." He replied calmly.

"Why?" I asked like I was the Principal of a school and Zack skipped his classes.

"...Why not?" He asked after some time. Of course, he was right too and if he'd tell me to shut my mouth up, it wouldn't be much wrong.

"Listen Zack, Leila is with her mate and you know how much success their relation already is so, how about we leave her to spend some quality time with him and come on, she's a big girl. She'll come back when she feels like it besides, we can't force her." I tried to convince him.

"But-" He tried to argue further but I cut him off,

"You don't have to worry about her. She's  with her mate right now and not some vampire, she's absolutely fine. She knows she has to come back so, she will." I stated as a matter of fact.

"I don't think this is the right way. She was already so pissed off cause she thought we were treating her differently and if we don't go to get her, I think she'll finally hate us." He replied with worry.  Damn, why is it so hard to satisfy him, he's too stubborn.

"She just needs some time alone, let's just give her some." I said like a wise, fairy godmother.

He didn't reply back for quite a time.

'Fine! But if she complains, I'll tell her I was coming to get her and that you didn't let me." He retorted. I pulled a punch in the air in rejoice as I accomplished half-satisfying someone way too hard to satisfy.

"Okay. Thank you buddy. You're the best in the whole world." I tried to butter him up.  I guess, I really sounded excited.

"Did you tell Sim and Alex that we found Leila?" 

 Oh, oh. Shoot, I forgot about it. How could I forget it?! I should go and die somewhere.

  "Umm..." That was the only possible, meaningful way of replying to this question.

"Seriously Em? You remember to tell me to 'let Leila have some time alone with her mate' but not that her brothers must be worried sick about her and you should inform them!" He taunted as he changed his tone from sarcastic to screaming.

"Fine, fine. I'll tell them right away." I said in a huff tone.

He just hummed in response and I hung up the call.

I called Alex and he picked up almost immediately.

"Em?" He confirmed as his voice sounded as if he was in a hurry.

"Yeah. I wanted to tell you that..." I was out of words. What was I supposed to say,

'Hey there, we finally found your sister. She's hanging out with her mate. You good?'

"What?" I suddenly heard the sound of tires' screeching. 

He must've guessed that it was about Leila.
