"I Want to be yours"

"Who said Kiss, I said Kid, I said don't tell anyone about the kid, I was referring to you, I didn't want anyone to know you fainted..." Alex Bayly spoke rapidly while her facial expression was changing intermittently.

She was praying within herself that Cassandra Dean would buy the lie, if not, she might just have the power to make or mar her job as a teacher or even her career of being employed if she dug in deeper.

Cassandra looked from Azrael to Alex and back. She looked weak so she couldn't think properly. She rested back on the bed without saying anything.

"Azrael can I talk to you for a minute...?" Alex asked and turned to exit the room.

Azrael looked at her exiting figure and then at Cassandra. "I'll be back okay...?" Azrael said to Cassandra.

"Why are you here anyways, to mock me? Why didn't the girls follow me, why you?.." Cassandra asked wondering why Azrael of all people came with her to the hospital.

"You know, you have better manners when you're unconscious, at least that version of you wouldn't speak carelessly. Also, you don't know how to say a simple thank you... Did your father teach you any manners at all..." Azrael spoke, expressing his dissatisfaction, he then stood up and left.

Cassandra opened her mouth in shock and disbelief and closed them without being able to form a sentence.

Just as Azrael left, a nurse came inside. She saw Cassandra sitting up and was a bit happy. "You're up, that's good. I hope you thanked that boy, I learnt your friends didn't want to come so he volunteered instead to come with you. I also learnt he was the one who discovered you were losing consciousness, if not, you might have died. He is more or less your lifesaver." The nurse spoke as if she was at the scene of the event.

Cassandra was shocked by what she had just heard. She stared at the nurse and then at the door that Azrael had just gone through and a lot of confusing thoughts started to form in her head.

'Why would he go to that length for me? Is he in love with me or something? Why would he sacrifice his time for me? What's his deal? Isn't the rumor true that he is dating miss Alex? Could I be the possible target?' As she was pondering, the nurse was checking her vitals and placing one medical instrument after another on her body.

Outside the door...

Azrael stood in front of Alex. His heart was beating heavily as if it would explode from his chest.

After all, he had just kissed his teacher, he had no idea what is about to happen. Alex was also staring without saying a word.

"The full moon is tomorrow, so my werewolf transformation is likely to occur tomorrow evening, I would love for you to come along to meet a man who would help me go through with it. I've told you about him before, his name is Yiu Ming Zul." Azrael started the conversation since neither of them was talking.

Alex nodded slowly as she listened to him. She pursed her lips and then spoke, "We will talk about the kiss later, but you must find a way to convince Cassandra not to dwell on what she heard. Also, I will be leaving now, it's getting too dangerous to stay, I don't want others to have misunderstandings about us. ..."

Alex paused and then turned and wanted to be walking away, then she stopped and turned back. "Oh, by the way, I met that creepy doctor that you for some reason seem to hate, he asked for my home address, he said he wanted to send a cream that could help remove any scar from my wound and I told him, he seems to have..." As Alex was talking, Azrael walked closer and pointed before speaking...

"You gave him? That man works for Alpha Zuck Danesworth and also for Alpha James. He is a mole....." He started shaking in fear as he paused and then continued, "We can't sleep at your house this night... They going to attack us for sure and kidnap you" Azrael said with certainty.

"Really..? Ain't you a bit paranoid... I am going home now" Alex treated his words lightly and turned to leave.

"Wait... I am serious... I" Azrael could barely get a word in before Alex was out of sight.

Azrael became worried and started pacing up and down, unsure of what to do next, Almost immediately, Bianca Zul's ghostly apparition appeared in a flash.

Azrael was slightly startled as he shifted back a bit, but he regained his composure after knowing it was his aunt's ghostly apparition.

"So you've been listening in on my conversations..." Azrael said accusingly.

Bianca Zul smiled but didn't respond to that, instead she turned towards the exit and tilted her head which turned 360 as if there was no neck and it was now facing Azrael as if her head had been twisted.

This move scared Azrael a bit. He tried to remain calm while looking at her ghostly head that was turned completely backward while her body was facing forward.

"I will look after her, don't worry, if there is danger, I will come and inform you.." Bianca Zul said before disappearing.

Azrael felt calmer after hearing that and proceeded to enter the room. He wanted to pack his back and leave with Alex before she is gone.

As he entered the hospital room, he saw Cassandra staring right back at him. "I will be going now, I can call your friends to come over when I get to school" Azrael spoke with a grunt as he moved to get his bag from the side of Cassandra's bed...

As he touched his bag, Cassandra laid a hand on his hand, she corked her head slightly and looked into his eyes. "Please don't go, I'm sorry for how I spoke earlier... I..."

Azrael removed his hands from hers. He started to wonder why she was acting so strangely. She was nice, and that was very strange because everyone knows that Cassandra Dean is not a nice person.

Cassandra smiled noticing his shocked reaction. "I've never had anyone who would do what you did for me today. I've always felt everyone was either jealous of me because of my status or lusting after my beauty, I never knew there was someone as Kind-hearted as you are... Thank you for saving me." Cassandra said slowly and passionately.

Azrael was completely blank, wondering if he entered the wrong room or if Cassandra has been possessed.

"Did you hit your head or something..." Azrael asked in confusion. The behavior she was displaying was very alien.

"I guess I deserve that, Okay let us start from the beginning, My Name is Cassandra Dean, I've been a jerk, and I'm sorry, I want to be your friend..." Cassandra spoke softly while she stretched out her hand toward Azrael.

Azrael looked at it and then at her. He was surprised when he noticed she was serious. He scratched his head a little and shook her hand before he responded. "Uhm, I am Azrael Herrington. Do you mean what you said about being my friend or is that a joke...?"

Cassandra smiled, "Azrael, I want to be your girlfriend..."

"_" Azrael was speechless...
