Chapter 27

Freya

The door opened and someone slid into the car on the front seat. Gabriel pulled back from me with a jerk. I gave out the breath that I was holding. I couldn't fathom the feel of his lips against mine. I had wanted to kiss Gabriel at that instant, what the hell was happening to me?

How could I give in so easily? I agree Gabriel was hot, maybe even hotter than Titus. Was he? I mean both of them were remarkably handsome and hot, but there was something about Gabriel which I couldn't put a finger on. Maybe because he was a bit diabolical, whereas Titus was every bit a gentleman.

How was I ever going to choose between them? I mean, I felt a strong pull towards both of these men. I couldn't deny the sexual attraction, the way my stomach fluttered every time my eyes set on them.

"Don't tell me you are thinking about him?" Gabriel asked.

My eyes snapped at his face, was he a mind reader like Edwards? God, what was I thinking? Lols. Agree or not I was caught up in the same situation as Bella. A werewolf and a vampire, and a human. Was I human? What was I?

"What happened Freya?"

"I am a human with a werewolf and Vampire as a mate," I replied crossing my arms on my chest.

"You are anything but human," Gabriel tucked a stray strand of my hair behind my ear.

I rolled my eyes at him," How can you say I am not human?"

"Do you have any idea how strong you are? I fainted with your punch Freya," Gabriel said in a sheepish voice.

"Maybe you are not as strong as you think," I retorted in a teasing way.

It was Gabriel's turn to roll his eyes, he pinched my nose and placed a kiss on my forehead and my stomach fluttered again in the same stupid way as always, when he was around.

The car's engine roared and it started moving. Two warriors had taken the front, one was driving and the other was sitting on the passenger seat. We reached the pack bantering about stupid things. I didn't realize but Gabriel always made me open up to him even though I didn't want to.

I was starting to like him even though his ego didn't tend to stop annoying me. The car stopped in front of our house and Gabriel walked out of the car carrying me in his arms. Dad's car stopped on the porch when we were entering the house and my heart dipped.

I readied myself for the coming conversation. Mom and Dad were not going to let me off the hook so easily. The moment we entered the house Mom rushed towards us. Gabriel placed me back on my feet and took a step or two away from me. Mom hugged me tightly with tears flowing from her eyes. I could only imagine how worried she could have been because of my irresponsible behavior.

The main door opened and closed with a loud bang and Dad appeared into the living room after a few moments. I had never seen him this furious ever before in my life. Dad was a very controlled man. I had never seen him lose his temper ever, but at this moment he was merely hanging by a thread.

I was worried sick at the moment, fearing his reaction. It was clear how disappointed he was with me. I had hurt my parents intentionally, they always had tried to make life as cheerful as possible for me. I used to drown in self-pity before and now I had left home because I didn't want anyone to die because of me.

"I am sorry," it took all my strength to speak these three words.

"I don't even have words to describe how I am feeling," Dad said in a dejected tone.

"Dad, please lash out one me," I closed the gap between me and Dad and placed my hand on his arm.

Dad brushed aside my arm and took a step back from me," How could you even think of leaving us, Freya?" Dad asked, hurt clear in his eyes.

"Dad, I didn't want anyone dying for me if something would have happened to you or any other pack member I wouldn't have been able to forgive myself," I could barely speak because of the lump forming in my throat.

My vision blurred as tears clouded my eyes, I hadn't thought, Dad would be hurt this much. Who was I fooling? I hadn't cared that my actions would hurt my family this much.

"How would I have forgiven myself, Freya, If something had happened to you?" Dad asked, his voice broken.

Tears started rolling down my cheeks, the guilt of my actions was weighing me down. I had thought I was saving everyone instead I had hurt them so badly. Mom and Dad were both hurt, beyond description.

"Dad, please forgive me. I would never do such an irrational thing ever again," I pleaded to Dad.

"Freya, I understand what you had been through and what you are going through right now, trust me baby if it was up to me I would never let a tear come into ur eye," Dad took a step towards me and wiped the tear on my face.

I peered up at him in astonishment, had he forgiven me? My heart was about to explode with warmth. My parents loved me so much that they couldn't even stay mad at me for a few hours and I had left them without thinking.

I hated myself for it, how could I be so insensitive?

Gabriel was regarding me intently with his green eyes. He had been silent throughout the conversation with Dad. I had never thought that I would have such an intimate conversation with my parents in presence of a stranger, but Gabriel didn't feel like a stranger ever to me. I always had felt that I had known him forever, was it because we were mates?

"Promise me, Freya, you won't do anything like this ever again," Dad said, spreading his palm in front of me.

"I won't Dad, I promise," I placed my palm on his hand and wrapped my fingers around it.

The front door opened and a pair of steps ranged in the

"Xavier, we have been attacked, at the southern borders," Beta Greg, entered the living room and announced.

We all looked at each other in astonishment, who could attack us now?
