I Rejected My Obsessive Werebeast novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11

Aurora’s POV

I glared at Connor, feeling my face flush with anger.

How dared he say that about Silas? He had no right!

And just as I was ready to stand up and defend Silas, Silas stood up / abruptly. His chair made a sharp screeching voice against the floor.

“You hypocritical bastard,” Silas growled.

Everyone gasped, including me.

Silas looked so calm and steady and sophisticated. I didn’t know he’d swear in front of the public. But I knew he was doing it for me.

“What the hell did you say?!” Connor growled.

“You want to talk about who deserves to be by Aurora’s side?” Silas’s voice grew stronger. “Yes, you know her favorite vacation spot, and how she likes her coffee in the morning. You knew everything about her, and you used that knowledge only as a weapon to hurt her feelings. So what exactly are you proud of?”

The crowd was completely silent now. Even the wait staff had stopped moving, frozen in place as they watched this confrontation.

Connor’s face had gone pale. “I never I never hurt her feelings.”

“Then why did she give up on forming a bond with you?”

Connor looked as though someone just slapped him in the face.

Silas continued in a deep voice, “Maybe I don’t know everything about Aurora yet. But I still have a lifetime ahead of me to learn. And I sure won’t waste my time with her like you did.”

The hall erupted in whispers, but I barely heard them.

I was staring at Silas. He had just defended me with such fierce protectiveness that my heart felt like it might burst from my chest.

I stood up and held Silas’s hand. He immediately intertwined his fingers

with mine.

“Silas’s right,” I said. “And I trust you’ll learn. You can start right now. For example, the happiest moment in my life is when I ended my old life and met you.”

A surprised smile spread across his face. I smiled back and then turned to meet Connor’s gaze.

He was glaring at our holding hands and looked as though he wanted to murder Silas.

“And you know what, Connor? I regret saving your life when we were fourteen. I should have let you die on the street.”

Connor swayed on his feet.

For a moment, he looked genuinely shaken

But then his expression hardened, and I watched him rebuild his defenses in seconds.

“As if I care,” he smirked with a shrug. “Even if you hadn’t saved me, someone else would have. And you are an idiot choosing that stupid, giant cat.”

He turned abruptly to Phoebe.

Without warning, he grabbed her chin in his hands and kissed her.

It was messy and desperate. Phoebe seemed startled at first, but then melted into it, probably thinking this was some kind of romantic gestur

But I knew it’s just a pathetic display.

It’s a pity how low he was willing to sink.

“Do you want to go home?” I asked Silas. “It’s getting dull here.”

He nodded without hesitation. “Of course.”

We made our way toward the exit, ignoring the stares and whispers that followed us. Connor and Phoebe were still making out behind us like teenagers at a school dance, but I didn’t look back.

The evening air was cool against my skin as we stepped outside the hall.

Silas immediately shrugged out of his suit jacket and draped it around m shoulders. The fabric was warm from his body heat.

“I’ll bring the car around,” he said gently, his hand briefly touching my shoulder. “Wait here?”

I nodded, pulling his jacket closer around me as he walked toward the parking area.

Then I heard footsteps behind me.

“Look at you, running away like a loser again,” said a familiar voice.

I turned to see Phoebe coming out of the hall.

Her lipstick slightly smudged from her public makeout session with
