Katherine's POV
We continued to stare at each other when I saw my visiting card on his dashboard.I chuckled at him softly while he looked confused. I showed him my visiting card.“When did I give you this? I totally forgot about it. I am having a lot of work nowadays that's why I keep forgetting things.” I said while he smiled at me and wished me a goodnight and left from there.I changed into my night and blushed thinking about our dance when I saw my best friend, Leo, my pet dog looking at me. I showed him Benjamin's photo which I got from his social media.“This is Benjamin. I know I promised to not love anyone and should be strong but I guess this guy is different. After Travis whenever I go on a date with someone I feel like I am cheating on him and thought that he would come for me one day but now I realized he will never come to me.” I said while Leo looked at me confused.“I am not sure whether I am completely over Travis or not but I like Benjamin. I am actually attracted to him and his eyes. I am going to meet him tomorrow.” saying I kissed Leo and took out I phone to message Ben.Katherine: Hi.Benjamin: Hi, Who is this?“Leo, he is asking me who I am. What should I reply.” I asked him and realized he can't talk.Benjamin: Kat? I mean Katherine?I felt goosebumps reading him calling me Kat. This is what I always wanted. An instant connection and getting to know each other in the same interest. I hope Benjamin won't turn out to be like the rest of the men.Katherine: Yes. I just messaged to ask you whether you have reached home safely.He saw the message but didn't reply. I felt bad thinking I again misunderstood the signals but then he sent me a pic of him eating pizza. I showed it to Leo who started licking my cheeks in happiness.Katherine: It Looks tasty. I am about to eat my boring dinner. Okay, have fun, bye.Goodnight.He replied to me with a goodnight and slept wondering whether this relationship heals me or will cause more pain to me.The next day, I went to my office but my staff members were shocked to see me.“Why are they looking at me like that? I asked my secretary who made me stand in front of a mirror.“This madam.” saying she pointed towards my face, “You are smiling.”I glared at her and asked her to get everyone back to work.“No one should gossip in my office.” I said angrily and went inside. But as I sat on my chair and realized Ben is the reason for me smiling again. I just met him yesterday but it feels like we are soulmates.I heard my phone ringing and realized he was calling me.“Hello, who is this?” I asked in a fake arrogant voice.“Katherine this is Benjamin.” he said while I chuckled.“I know Ben i was just playing.” I said while he didn't say anything.it's.. Be.. Benjamin” he stammered and told me indirectly to call him Benjamin itself. I also noticed how he again started calling me Katherine instead of Kat.“Sorry.” I said embarrassed and tried to keep my voice normal.“No, No, No need to say sorry. I just felt like we were taking it too fast. Let's go slowly. I just want us to be best friends.” Benjamin said while I realized he is not into me like how I was into him.I ended the call saying I will call him in a few minutes. Taking a deep breath calmed my heart and again promised to not expect anything from anyone.“I should do something. I should do something” saying I started working and also took the work of other workers and gave them leave for that day.Soon it's night 11 pm and I am still working. I heard a knock and saw Benjamin coming inside my cabin.“What are you doing here? Mr Benjamin Augustus?” I asked him while doing my work.“I went to your house to take you out for dinner but then realized you are still in your office.” He said while I glanced at him.“I thought you wanted to take things slow.” I said casually without showing any emotions on my face.“Yeah but we are friends already right? I thought about taking my friend out. You are my only friend with whom I got close in just one day.” he said while I chuckled sarcastically.“Becoming friends with someone in one day will make them leave that friendship one day.” I said avoiding eye contact with him.“Anyways you were teasing me with that werewolf story right? For the past two days I have been dreaming about werewolf.” I realized that he was not interested and was more interested in having dinner.“Fine, let's leave.” I said as I can't deny him but suggested going in my car.But on our way my car stopped moving and we were struck in the middle of the road. He tried to get help calling his secretary but nothing worked. Every mechanic said he will come only tomorrow morning.“I will help you.” saying I started doing the repair work, surprising him.We started the car but I was already too hungry to find a restaurant and wait for food.“I have cup noodles in my car with other snacks. Can we eat here itself?” But he asked me about the hot water needed for making noodles.“I like to drink only hot water. It's also in the car itself.” and we started having our dinner peacefully on that lonely road.“How do you know to repair the car?” He asked me while I revealed how I was interested in these things from childhood itself and learnt so many skills.“Your parents must be proud of you.” he said, making me chuckle sadly.“Yeah. They are proud of me.” we looked at each other and I held his cheek and he was about to kiss my lips when I faced sideways and he kissed my cheeks.We both blushed realizing what was about to happen.“Are we sure that it's been only one day since we have met?” he asked me while I smiled happily at him wondering why he came into my life too late.We completed our dinner and I felt sleepy. Suddenly I heard many bike sounds and people coming there on their bikes with weapons. With my half closed sleepy eyes I realized these people are there to rob us.Slowly I fell asleep even though I shouldn't be in this situation and I heard Ben asking if I am ok before I completely lose my consciousness.Katherine's POVThe next day, I woke up in my bed and was confused about how I got here. “Was that a dream? But it felt so real.” I spoke to myself and realized Leo is not here in his usual sleeping place.“Leoo! Leo!” I shouted trying to find where he was but didn't get any response. So I got out of bed and realized I am in my night dress and realized everything was indeed a dream. I signed sadly and went to see Leo. I opened the door and saw a man sleeping hugging Leo on the sofa. Leo doesn't like strangers hugging him and on top of that how did this man get inside my house! “Who are you?” I started beating him with a broomstick and he woke up startling and I realized it's Benjamin. “Was this a gift for saving you last night?” he asked me while I smiled in embarrassment. “Sorry I thought it was a dream seeing myself in my night dress. Thanks for saving me and changing me into this dress..” and that's when I realized he changed my clothes.I got so angry and thought he took advan
Katherine's POV Few years ago,I was walking towards my home after shopping when I saw Travis, my classmate and also a biker standing with his friends and I saw my friend, Adam standing with them. “Hey, Adam.” I called him while he was also happy to see me unlike others who just rolled their eyes. “See this.” saying Adam started his usual stunts with his Rolling shoes. I borrowed one from him and we wore only one shoe on our legs while slippers on the other leg. “This didn't look good.” Travis warned but without minding him we started having fun but I lost my balance and lost hold of Adam's hands and was about to fall on a bike. “No!!!” I shouted in fear as I got near the big bike when two hands caught my waist and lifted me before I hit the bike. It's Travis, we stare at each other and that's the moment I realized I am in love. Present days…“And the same boy humiliated me in front of the whole class. I thought Benjamin was different.” I said sobbing to Leo who was pushing mor
Katherine's POV“Adam?” I saw him angrily when Benjamin walked behind him. They looked at each other and Adam went out while Benjamin sat near me and tried to talk to me. “I am sorry.” Before he would apologize I took my things and left after calling my secretary to settle the bills. The next few days went uneventfully as I tried to show my anger on my workers and fired many of them. “What the hell? You don't know the difference between ‘Two’ and ‘Too’.” the man tried to explain the mistake was because of his family situation and how they are indebt and he was not able to sleep due to his other job at a coffee shop where he works with his wife as part time to manage house expenses. “Take that coffee shop job full time.” I shouted asking him to get out while he begged me to have some mercy but I got the security to throw him out. After a few minutes, my secretary came inside my cabin in a hurry and with a happy smile. “Mada..” before she would take I shouted at her coming in with
Katherine's POVI locked the wolf in my bedroom and opened the main door and saw the policeman and neighbor coming inside.“I heard a sound from that room.” a man said pointing towards the room where I had shut the wolf with Leo. I tried to convince only my pet was there and the wolves were on the opposite side towards the forest but they didn't believe it.They opened the door with guns ready to shoot if the wolf tried to attack but in a few minutes the police went from there apologizing and the neighbors looked embarrassed to see something. The men gave me a teasing smile while the women seemed to be jealous of something. I went inside to see Benjamin lying naked and covered with bed sheets on the bed and gasped at him in shock. He slowly woke up and saw me looking at him in shock and looked down at him and he looked worried and tense and asked me for any extra clothes. I was too shocked to ask him anything and gave me my shirt and pants and he wore them in a hurry. I remembered
Katherine's POVAfter a few weeks, I found myself in a wedding dress walking down the aisle with my father who silently warned me to have a smiling face. Ethan didn't get shot but he asked me to marry him if I didn't want him to get me arrested. I just nodded as I don't know how to react to that. I was strong before Travis came into my life. I got back my strength after so many years and became stronger when Benjamin entered my life and now I am tied to fight.I love Benjamin, which I realized after he saved Leo but I can't stay with him after he treats me like that. Even though he apologizes I can't forgive him. I will divorce this Ethan after a few months and get back to my old self. “Let's have fun tonight.” Ethan whispered to me when I stood next to him and I felt disgusted with his words. “Do you take Ethan as your husband?” I realized I need to deny it as divorcing is a bigger process and I was about to deny it when I saw Benjamin coming there. He was running towards me and
Katherine's POV“No, I didn't steal it. Please believe me. Somebody has kept her things in my bag.” I cried in front of my teacher who gave me a disgusting look and asked everyone to have a seat. No one at my house listened to me. I was crying asking someone to call my teacher and tell me I didn't do anything but they did nothing. Only my mother consoled me but asked me to go to school the next day. It continued for years till I reached my 10th grade. My mom used to warn my school management to take action against my bullies but each time she supports me they bullying just gets heavier. Once I was accused of copying in class and all my teachers said harsh things to me and failed me purposely. Everyone who really copied called me a liar and cheater and I literally had no friends. In my 10th grade I got a few friends but realized they are also fake when one of the girls tried to start drinking and smoking to console myself while another girl stole the boy I loved even though she kno
Benjamin's POV I got angry at myself for not being there for Katherine when she actually wanted me with her. I was alive and a 500 year old werewolf when she was getting bullied and I felt powerless and helpless when I realized even though powerful, that power didn't help Katherine in any way. But I felt proud that my baby didn't need any guy to save her but she saved herself and got stronger. I felt like finding Travis and his friends who hurt my Kat and tear them with my teeth but Kat won't like it. She believes in karma and I decided to let them go but promised to punish them if they tried to hurt my Kat again. We made another date plan in a restaurant where she always wants to go with Travis. After she told me her entire past, I promised myself to never let anyone hurt her like that. She thought Travis was her soulmate and planned many things which I will give her and make her happy always. She came in a beautiful dress and said thank you, which I didn't understand, and asked
Benjamin's POVI looked at her and shouted every truth without thinking of the consequences, “I was waiting for you for more than 500 years and you decided to cheat with with this piece of sh*t?”She was shocked and confused hearing my question while Travis smirked at me. I tried to attack him and felt my wolf overtaking me when Katherine protected him from me and I went from there in anger after warning her that she will regret this. “I don't know what happened to him but please forgive him and forget everything.” I heard her talking from afar. I was surprised because the power to hear your mate's voice is only possible when your mate is a werewolf. Keeping aside all the thoughts all continued to hear her from my car but didn't hear Travis's voice. “He is a really good person. I like him so much.” she said and continued angrily after a minute of silence, “Don't talk like that about him.”I don't know what he said but I felt relief to hear Katherine defending me. “I can't come tomo
