The Lycan's Revengeful Rejected Mate (Katherine) novel Chapter 23

KATHERINE:

Tanya and I were both walking around the compound, but my mind was somewhere else and I couldn't concentrate on our conversation.

"So that's all about me, now your turn."

I had not even realized she was done talking until I felt her warm hand on my shoulder, and I jerked a little in fright,

"Katherine, were you even listening to me? What's wrong? Is something bothering you? Or did my brother do anything?"

I shook my head in negation, "No, Leo didn't do anything, and I don't think he ever would." I was beginning to trust him so much even though I had promised myself I wouldn't trust any soul again. After all, he had almost risked his life to save mine,

"Tanya," I called her name and halted. Because I did, she stopped as well. "What can you tell me about Leo? I need to know anything, but you don't have to lie to me about anything, I promise I would be mad."

She stared at me for a long time, probably wondering why I had asked that question. Somehow, I felt a bit unsafe right there in the room, and his anger made me a bit scared of him,

"Well…" Tanya held my hand and began walking with me. "Apart from being a cold and mean ass, I don't think there's anything so bad about my brother. Trust me, he's so good at hiding his feelings, but I still can't believe he's so different towards you. I feel so jealous…"I chuckled,

"Your brother loves you a lot, Tanya. Like you said, he's so good at hiding his feelings, but you can see it in his eyes. I wonder why he treats you that way?"

Tanya cleared her throat aloud, "That's enough talk about my brother, Katherine, I think it's time to tell me about yourself. How did you even become my brother's mate? How did you two meet?" She uttered, and I was about to say something, but we both heard Blake's voice,

"Katherine." I halted immediately and turned around to stare at him.

"I'm sorry Tanya, but I guess your chat time with her is over. The Alpha would like to see his mate now." Blake interrupted, and I felt a bit relieved as I wasn't ready to start telling her about my past with Zane and my family.

"Even stingy with his mate." She cocked her head towards me, "We'll catch up later, Katherine, and I promise we'll be far from my brother this time." She uttered and I smiled. I was honestly beginning to like Tanya because I felt like she was the little sister I always wanted, but never had.

I walked first, and Blake trailed behind me until we got back to the main mansion. Leo was inside waiting for me, and after what had happened in the room earlier, I had no idea what to say to him.

"Sit." His voice wasn't so cold, but it wasn't warm either. I walked over to the opposite couch and took my seat. Leo raised his gaze at me, and thankfully I couldn't see that anger in his eyes anymore,

"We'll stick with whatever you want." He uttered, but I was still silent. His gaze averted to Blake who was standing behind me,
