Breaking the Madness

Thirteen

Anna POV

The words were stuck in my throat. I didn't understand they were such simple words...... I forgive you..... such simple words. Yet when I was looking into Luc's storm grey eyes I couldn't do it. I guess what Luc had said to me before had made an impression.

"No."

Jaidens's eyes opened in shock. I laughed to my self bitterly, he thought that I would simply forgive him as soon as he asked? Forgiveness had to be earned.

"Anna please....."

"Jaiden? What are you doing?" Camilla's voice echoed across the infirmary. "What are you doing with HER?"

Jaiden shook his head remorsefully, "I was just checking on her, it was my fault that she's in here."

Of course that was the only reason he was here. I was hurt. He wanted forgiveness for putting me in harms way instead of wanting forgiveness for rejecting me.

Jaiden stood and walked to Camilla. I watched them as I scratched at my wrist nervously. She was looking at me venomously, her lips turned up in a sneer. I did not like the way she looked at me. She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him away from he.

Watching as they left I was filled with sadness, maybe if I had answered differently he would have stayed.

"Petal?" Luc sat on the end of my bed looking at me cautiously.

When I didn't answer he took my hand.

"Thank you."

Jaiden POV

I wanted to say so much more to her than what I did. Forgive me was all I said? I asked my self scoffing. I wanted to get down on my knees and beg her to forgive me, to take me back. I wanted her, not Camilla and I was beginning to question who had been the one lying that night.

But it was all too late, wasn't it?

I had made my choice, she had made hers. Maybe we were star-crossed?  I laughed thinking about all the times I had read Romeo and Juliet and scorned the idea of fated love and and star crossed lovers. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe there was such thing as fated love that could never end in happiness? Maybe that was the hell I was currently living in?

I sighed. Again, I was too late anyway.

Camilla tugged on my arm and looked up at me, "You're thinking about her aren't you? How could you? She lied to you remember..... she tried to keep us apart."

She pouted at me and looked away. I had always despised it when girls whined at me, pouting like a duck. it was very unattractive.

"Jaiden! Look at me!" I think she stamped her foot.

I looked over at her with one eyebrow raised, silently asking if she was serious.

She cowered away from me as she decided to pull it together, "I'm sorry, I just get jealous sometimes..... you'll still get bound to me right? You ARE my mate."

Was she? because the way she was acting I was beginning to think maybe she wasn't.

"Of course Camilla," I said monotony.

She smiled, "Great! because I have a few things I want to talk to you about me becoming Luna!"

She grabbed my hand and started to pull me away.

I found it funny that she never told me that she cared about me at all, she only talked about becoming Luna.

I had a small feeling I was being used.
