Love Grows In The Dark Eli Lowe (love story novels in english TXT) 📖

Yes.

I am always trying to hide. No matter where I go or where I stay, like at the school, at the pack, at my workplace, everywhere. Cause I don't know what I would do if I got found by my mate who turns out to be one of my haters as well. And I know that the possibility of it is at its highest.

Cause, you see, everyone hates me.

So, it is better to stay hidden, always.

And in that case, Kaith helped me a lot, whether knowingly or unknowingly, but he did anyway.

You must be wondering how, right?

See, it is only the smell that could make us realize who is our mate exactly, except through touching each other. So, it was easy for me to cover up my smell with Kaith's as he never minded to lend me his dresses.

Easy.

No worries at all.

And my days were back to usual once again.

“Move, you bitch.” I was about to enter the next maths class when I heard an irritating nasal voice from behind. I didn't even have to turn around to know who it was.

Yes, Lizzie and her group of universal whores.

She pushed me aside rudely only to sway her hips seductively while making her way to Markus who was already sitting at the back of the class.

I saw Markus frowning a bit but little did she care and sat on his lap, glueing her entire body with his like some lizard.

“Get off me.” His horrific voice caused me not to turn my gaze away from the pathetic pair only to see her frowning face revealing the fact that things didn't happen according to her expectations.

Poor Lizzie.

Tsk.

Seeing such a scene before my eyes, I almost cracked up, but I didn't though. Yes, I held myself back from laughing out loud.

Anyway.

I got into that classroom, just when another realization hit me.

Crap.

I sighed as I realized that I had to sit beside those pathetic fellows for an entire class because the class was full leaving the only seat for me to sit, just beside Markus.

Fixing the huge hoody I sat on the seat quietly, waiting for the class to end as soon as possible.

But something was wrong.

I kept zoning out throughout the period and my gut kept twisting for some unknown reason.

Something odd was in the air.

Anyway,

Another day when I had passed successfully, sneaking around the whole school without being caught or involving in some kind of useless fights.

But one thing I knew that something was definitely odd at school. I couldn't point it out though, but I kept feeling that someone is pulling me. But who I didn't know.

'No, I shouldn't encourage any uncanny thoughts.' That was what I thought every time whenever those feelings occurred to me out of the blue only to ignore such suspicion.

“What took you so long?” I asked Kaith when he made his way out to the parking area at last, after school.

“No Sam, I am on time while you are early, because you are eager as ever to get out of this school as soon as you can. What are you running from Sam?” Yeah yeah... He had started his nonstop lectures already.

“Okay, okay... I understand. Where is Jenny?” I asked intentionally, cause I knew only that name could make him stop.

“Why do you think I would know?” He asked acting all grumpy while I knew he was already feeling butterflies in his stomach.

You, dumbass.

But even before I could say anything else to Kaith, we heard the voice for which we were waiting.

“Hi, I am sorry that you had to wait.” With that, she showed her dimples and I already knew that someone was already drooling beside me.

“No, it's totally fine.” Came his reply.

I didn't know I should laugh or not.

“Anyway. Let's go. Are you going to work today?” I asked her as it became a routine for me since the first day, to drop jenny at work and pick her up from there as well.

And you know what?

Kaith has no problem with that anymore, as long as I take my bike with me and pick up his each and every call without hanging up in between his queries.

“Yes.” She said and with that, we all started to head towards our own ways.

Jenny to her club, Kaith to his practice, and I to the cafe, after dropping Jenny as I said.

After work, I headed straight towards the club.

I was roaming around here and there in the dark alleys near Jenny's club as I came early as usual. It was almost midnight. And there was not a single trace of light in the surrounding, creating a replica of my own dark life. Yes, that was how it seemed.

But little did I know that something was about to happen, which I had always avoided.

With cold night breeze, came an unknown smell which appeared the most intoxicating one to me. The smell which could easily compel me to lose my sanity. And I knew what was happening.

Yes, I panicked as soon as I realized that the one is nearby. The one who was always meant for me. My mate.

The one whom I never wanted to meet due to my self-consciousness.

I panicked, even more, when another thought hit me all of a sudden.

I am wearing my clothes tonight just like every other night, because I had least expected to find my mate at these dark alleys and that too at this late hours?

What should I do now?

I can smell him, which means he could too.

Just when I kept thinking of all those possible ways to get myself out of this situation, the scent started getting even stronger and soon I could hear
