Chapter 9

I woke up to a beep of an incoming message on my phone. It was 4 am this Saturday.

I wondered if it was Alice or Nova trying to reach me about the date. I tried not to remember Theo’s hurtful words to me.

I sat up, pulling a pillow over my head.

But then I wondered if it was Tom. I tried reaching him on the line he used to bug me before, but everything went into his voice mail. I wondered if he was okay,

Eros. The name appeared on my screen.

My heart raced rapidly. I had Eros‘ number.

Could he have saved his contact on my phone before dialing his line with me? Why did I never check my contact?

I was wide awake now. All traits of sleep had vanished from my eyes.

How could one creature have such power over me? He’s not even my mate.

I clicked on the message.

Eros: How did your

date go?

My lips parted in shock. How did he know?

I fumbled for what to reply to him

Me: What are you talking about?

It’s better to fake ignorance than confess or outrightly deny it. I clicked “sent” and waited for his reply. My heart was racing

fast.

One second later, my phone beeped again.

Eros: Butter, you know what I’m talking about.

What’s with him calling me Butter?

Me: What’s it to you? You cunningly rejected my friendship.

Therd Let’s see what he has to say to that.

Iros. Because we can’t be friends. We are more.

What??

Another message came immediately.
