Chapter 75
He was really confused. He had no idea how he was supposed to deal with a troubled teenager.
“Acella believes that you don’t care about her. You are doing all that you can to protect her right now but have you ever thought that maybe what she wants is guidance, not a dictator? She needs someone who can relate to you. You should work
on that” Ciara said.
I never know what she’s thinking. I have no idea what’s actually going on in her head. I think she hates me Axiel said. He had been unwilling to admit it to himself before but he sees no reason to keep lying to himself or anyone else at this point.
Acella doesn’t like him. She hates him. And the worst part was that he felt like he deserves it. This is what he gets when he ignores his sister for so long and only tries to get involved in her life after their parents death.
Ciara shook her head. Tve met Acella only twice Axiel, but I like to believe that I am a good judge of character. I believe that she doesn’t hate you. No, this is far from the truth. There are some misunderstandings between you that the both of you need to sit down and talk about. But she doesn’t hate you” Ciara said. She remembered how Acella had stood up for Axiel in front of that skank Nadia at the bar.
To some extent she felt like she really admired her brother. But she had no idea how she was supposed to deal with it.
“Communication, damn communication again! Do you think that I don’t know this? I know it too but I don’t know how the heck I’m supposed to communicate with someone who doesn’t want that Ciara.
She doesn’t want to talk to me Axiel said.
“I know. Acella is closed off. She should really do better on talking about her feelings. Tell you what. I have no intentions of leaving this pack any time soon. I’ll help her for as long as I’m here” Ciara said.
Axiel’s eyes widened in shock. He wasn’t expecting Ciara’s offer to do this for him. Maybe what Acella actually needs is an older female figure in her life. Someone that she can relate to.
“You are actually going to do that for me? You know that you
on’t have to,right? You don’t have to put yourself through the stress. Acella can be a handful to manage. I know that first hand now” Axiel said.
“That is where you are wrong. Acella is not
try to get her to open up more. And as I actually want to help her, so I’m going to do just that. I’ll stick around and
try to get her to open up more. And as for you, instead of just telling her what to do, try to make her see reasons why she should do them. Like today, she learned her lesson. If she had gone out with Matthew or anyone else, a pervert would not have targeted her. She will know not to go to such dangerous places on her own anymore. At least to protect herself” Ciara said.
“Td rather she never visited bars in her life again” Axiel mused under his breath. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Ciara smiled. “well, we have to take baby steps now don’t we? We can’t just jump into banning her from bars completely” Ciara said with a cheeky grin.
“Seriously Ciara, you are under no obligations to help me and my sister. Thank you for doing this for her. I really appreciate it Axiel said.
“Like I said, it’s no big deal. I’m all too happy to help out here. By the way, before I forget, we met a she wolf called Nadia at the bar. She seemed to be an acquaintance, of yours. Anyway, she had tried to talk to Acella but Acella did not like her at all. I think she was trying to get to you” Ciara said.
Axiel frowned when he heard this. He had told Micheal and Miles that he will deal with Nadia on his own but he hadn’t done that yet. He needs to hurry up,
“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of her. She won’t be bothering Acella any more Axiel said.
“I really hope that you do. That woman obviously used to have some kind of relationship with you. And Acella did not like
her at all from what I noticed. So I advice that you take care of her as soon as possible. Besides, Jenna is your mate. No matter what, I am Micheal and Miles Beta. If you are doing something to hurt their sister, you know that I’ll be the first person to tell them right?” Ciara asked with a smile. It wasn’t a threat. She was just stating facts.
Axiel’s mouth twitched. He nodded his head dumbly, knowing that Ciara was just doing her job.
“Of course, she is my mess, and Ill be the one to clean her up. You don’t need to worry” he said.
Matthew followed Acella up to her room.
“You don’t need to worry about me Matthew. You can leave now. I won’t try to run away. Especially this late at night. I still value my life after all‘ Acella said.
“No, that’s not why I followed you. I know that you won’t leave tonight. I just wanted to tell you not to think too much about what happened just now. Your brother didn’t mean to embarrass you by yelling at you. He was just worried about you. You know that he has a lot of enemies. He is worried
that someone will use you to get to him. Please understand that all of this is because he cares about you” Mathew said.
Acella shook her head. “You don’t need to tell me this. I already know all of it. Actually, I should be the one apologizing to you. I am really sorry for sneaking out on my own and getting in trouble. Something horrible could have happened to me and
you will be the one who has to take the blame. I understand that now. I won’t be reckless with my life or with my safety just to prove a point to my brother. I’ll be more careful from now on” Acella said.
Mathew waves his hand and smiled at Acella. “I don’t mind. We have all been young once. We all wanted to go against our families just to prove that we are grown ups at some point. Coupled with what happened to your parents, I think I know a little bit on how you are feeling right now” Matthew said.
Acella frowned. Her parents have been mentioned twice in just one night. She didn’t like it. She didn’t like it at all.
Matthew seemed to realize that he had said something he should not have said.
“Don’t mind me. I was just saying. Anyway, do keep in mind that your brother cares about you a lot. He just can’t show it because that’s how he is. He cares about you a lot too Mathew said.
Acella tilted her head as she considered what Ciara and Matthew said. Is it true? That Axiel cares about her?
