I was laying on my bed and Aiden didn't bother to follow me after I stormed out of his room. That made me mad even more.

I can feel my wolf crying inside, angry with what I had done. She wanted to be with our mate tonight. I ignored her and recalled what had happened.

The argument I had with Aiden burns the conscience inside me. I didn't intend for it to turn that way but I got swayed by my outrage. However, his reaction was necessary and rude.

He could have told me that he disagrees with what I said. It's not like I needed him to agree, I'm just trying my luck at chances.

Then he raged his fury to me like I'm not his mate! That angered me too much that I can still see red until now.

I intend to talk about Titus' case and if he won't agree then he could have told me, not to the extent that he'll use his power over me just to prove his position.

I keep playing over and over my head what had happened and once I'm tired of thinking about it, I decided to went out of my room.

I walked silently along the hallway, almost fleet my toes when I was in front of Aiden's room. The last thing I want now was to see him.

I walked downstairs with careful steps then grabbed a glass of water when I reached the kitchen. My throat was suddenly dry from thirst.

I looked forward to nowhere as I held the glass in my hand. Running my mind to what to do next.

Titus will probably rat me out tomorrow if he'll found that I failed to convince Aiden. The introduction ceremony can be his great advantage to tell everyone that I'm a stealer and I started to think twice if I'll bail out of the event.

If I delayed telling him I failed, he might get the wrong interpretation and might act hastily, giving me the same consequence.

If I'll tell Aiden myself what I am now, my best guess was he'll raise hell and there will be no introduction ceremony tomorrow. It's not like I'm after the Luna title but the people from the pack that I attended today already learned about the ceremony.

I also doubt that invites are not yet delivered to every one of the pack, Nick sure does his job well and that part was possibly taken care of.

I sighed as I was left with no more ideas. Everything my mind was running on and about leads to anything but a mess.

'Hey, you awake?' It was Seth who cut me out of my thoughts. I forgot that I have someone who I can talk to about my dilemmas.

'Yeah.' I replied as I put the glass of water down to the sink. 'Can we talk?'

'You know where the pool is?' his reply was fast, I bet he can't sleep the night after what had happened. His head must be full of wary.

'Yeah. I'll meet you there.'

I opened the door that leads to the underground and closed it silently. Making sure no sound will be made that may wake anyone.

The stairs are long and I thought I'll be welcomed by darkness but a dim light at the bar corner was open. Seth was already sitting on a barstool.

"Can't sleep?" I said as soon as he turned his head to look at me. Seth held a glass of whiskey as he lumped on his chair.

He nodded. "I needed a drink." he mumbled before taking a big gulp of the liquor. I have one person who knew what I am in a day and he already looked like a mess.

I sat on a barstool beside him and grabbed a glass for myself. I drank it straight, feeling it burns my throat as it glides down.

"Have you talked?" he asked. Turning his back on the bar and stared at the calm water in front of him.
