My heart swooned when he said what only Reese called me it did make me feel like he was my friend too. “Okay, so I lied and said I had a school project.”
Rogan snickered, “Wow you had to lie to be away for just a few hours?” He stepped closer to me as I nodded in agreement. He stepped closer to me still making the space between us less than a foot and I could feel my body reacting wanting to close the small space between us. “So guess you are going to have to tell the high priestess some bad news.” “I do?” “Yep turns out there is a real stupid jock working with you on this group project and turns out it is going to take a lot longer than you thought.” I smiled. “A stupid jock?” He smiled back but his arms reached out and grabbed my waist pulling me against his chest my hands landed on either side and I could feel him breathing up and down. He touched my cheek again gently. “Yep a real stupid jock and you are going to be busy this weekend for at least a few hours both days and it might even be a few weeks but what can you do it’s your final project you need to be sure you graduate.” “Wow, you think of everything.” I grinned and tapped his chest with my fingers dancing them on top of his muscles. “Not everything.” I raised my eyebrows jokingly at him. “I didn’t think how much I would want to do this.” Rogan with his one hand on my waist pulled me until I was pressing everywhere on his body and then with his other hand he pulled on the back of my neck pulling my face closer to his as he bent down and his lips gently touched mine. I should have pulled away. I should have told him to stop but instead, I opened my mouth slightly and allowed his tongue to start dancing with mine. My arms wrapped around his neck and my whole body exploded. Rogan was squeezing me tighter and tighter and our mouths just took each other’s breath away. His hands moved down to my butt and I felt him squeeze which brought me back to reality because I’d never even kissed a guy let alone had one grab my ass. I pulled away a bit abruptly. “I have to go.” I smiled and he grinned back at me. I raced over and grabbed my sweatshirt and phone I tried to run by him but he grabbed me again and pulled me in. “I want your number.” He grinned at me. I grabbed my phone. “Tell me yours.” I put them in quickly as he read them because I knew if I ever wanted the plan to work I had to be on time tonight. “Okay, I will text you in a bit.” He pulled me in and pushed his mouth onto mine again. I should have pulled away but I allowed it one more time. Then I pulled away and made myself run away otherwise I’d never go.My entire body was hot and sweaty and I felt almost out of control after kissing Kellina. I looked around and decided I would drench myself under the waterfall. I pulled off my socks, shoes, and T-shirt. The pond itself was only waist deep and I thought about how much I’d like to swim in her with her. I pulled myself up onto the rocky area below the waterfall and basically allowed the water to drip over me. I did my best to let the cool water chill my body after the heat I had just felt. I hadn’t anticipated kissing her and I felt my nerves worried that I had done it too soon and now she was going to run forever. I kept looking over at my phone on the rock waiting for her to send me a text so I’d know I could see her again. I regretted being as aggressive as I stood there letting the water run over my body and staring out into nothing. It bothered me how much Kellina had felt like she was unnoticed or not paid attention to because of who she was. I had tried to explain to her
I ran quickly home faster than I think I’d ever run. Still thinking about those two amazing kisses and trying to understand why my body was electrified by all of them. I was sure it had to be just the idea of the future alpha kissing me or the fact it was Rogan. Rogan turned out to be kind, caring, strong, and so very handsome. The chills kept running through me but I had to get home quickly without anyone else noticing my very winded face. I went around to the back door and hoped I could creep through the kitchen and to my room on the lower floor. I was doing good and had gotten into the hallway past the kitchen and was making it down to my room in the back of the hallway when one of the priestesses Laura popped out of her room. She was the same one who had texted me and was one of the older priestesses at this point. Laura was generally kind and was really very understanding and I always thought it was because Laura wasn’t always like this. Her life previously was one filled with lov
My chores were finished quickly and I hopped in the shower in the morning to freshen up. I put my hair up in a messy bun with some of my curls flowing down and still wore tights pink ones this time with a black tank top. I did my best to put some light makeup on that I’d smuggled under my bed a while ago for such an occasion. I threw on my hoodie and went out in the hallway. I’d already sent a message to the high priestess with her breakfast tray letting her know that I would be leaving about 11:00 after completing chores and morning prayers. I also told her I’d see her tonight for dinner as planned and thanked her for her kindness. I hated informing her of anything because besides dinner or the occasional accidental bump she didn’t have much to say to me. I learned more from the other priestess around me when they would share their own experiences from life outside of this house. As I made my way through the hallway I bumped into Laura again. “Good morning priestess Laura” I bowed to
“I am sorry Kel.” “Rogan for the last time you didn’t do anything wrong, I promise.” Rogan apologized for all through lunch which was getting to be a bit much. He brought a pretty good spread of fruit, chicken salad sandwiches he said that the house cook helped him make, pasta salad also courtesy of the house cook, chips, water, and soda just in case. We ate quietly for the most part with some small talk and then the ever-happening apology. “I just never meant to go that far. I mean I want to but I should have some self-control. You know my mom told me something, well never mind.” “What did she tell you?” I was really curious. “I don't want to make you run away from me Kel.” He put his head down and this time I reached out for his touch. I leaned over and put my hand on his face. “I’m not running, you have to let it go, okay?” He nodded back at me and I looked into his getting memorized all over again. I almost went in for my first initiated kiss but then curi
We laid there holding each other for a while and it felt right even though part of me told me I should be ashamed for doing such things with someone that wasn’t known to be mate. Still, it wasn’t Rogan’s fault by any means because I am the one who said as long as we don’t have sex. I couldn’t believe those words came out of me but here I was letting a guy hold me and rub me after sharing a very intimate experience. Rogan kept kissing me lightly here and there as he rubbed my body down. It wasn’t appropriate by any means and was truly done in a very loving manner. “You are quiet what is going on in that beautiful head of yours?” He kissed my forehead gently and I couldn’t help but blush. Nobody had ever even hinted at me being beautiful so it felt embarrassing and almost unreal when he said it. He leaned in closer making eye contact with me and I almost got lost in the silver specs in his dark eyes. “Hey Kel, I mean it tell me what you are thinking? I want to know”. “Your eyes
The day ended with a lot more kissing and talking. I felt connected to Rogan unlike I’d ever felt connected with anyone else before. Of course, there was only Reese who I felt close enough to share any of my thoughts. We repeated much of the same events on Sunday but before I could ask him how school or anything else would work we were interrupted by some wolves that started getting close to our spot and we had to break without talking about it. I was amazed that Melina had bought my school project story but seemed uncertain with my birthday preparations if I would be allowed any afterschool time this week. For some reason with the knowledge of knowing that I would be 18 on Friday be blessed by the moon goddess and know then if Rogan was my true mate. I didn’t seem to mind skipping the afterschool jaunts if needed. I knew Monday I couldn’t anyways because I was supposed to have my dress fitting. Priestess Laura had been requested by Melina to hand make a dress for me as I was pres
I felt every eye on me from the moment Rogan walked up and kissed me. I felt like small whispers were floating through the hallways as we walked. Reese and Alec both smiled as they walked along with us and barely could remember that my first class was English. I barely even remembered that Rogan, Alec, and Reese were in the same class as me. We walked into the class and my face had to be the color of a tomato. It felt like the whole class stopped and turned to stare as we walked in. Rogan must have noticed because he leaned into my ear, “Kel relax, and just lead the way.” I looked over to the table that Reese and I normally sat at which was in the far-left corner I started to walk forward with Rogan following behind still holding my hand giving it a gentle squeeze. Looking around I could see the stunned faces and whispers quickly started back up. The table was just simply that with two chairs behind each table followed by another one in front and so it went. Reese and I typically sat i
Lunch was great and although I knew we had a class coming up I found myself pulling Rogan to the library. “I want a few moments alone with you.” My body temperature was rising and my mind was focused on very dirty things, dirty things I wanted to do with Rogan, especially after today. I was barely even a part of my mind at that point. We walked into the library and I pulled him along with me and he came with me smiling and eager not entirely sure. There was the closet in the far back I put my hand on the brassy knob and just as I thought the door opened. It was a small closet and I pulled Rogan in. “Kel, what are we doing in here.” I quickly locked the door and lunged at him kissing him mercilessly. Our tongues tangled in a dance of anticipation and I started to move my hands to his rising erect which I stroked with my hand over his clothing. “Damn Kel, slow down a bit, wait you are burning up.” His statement was made as his hands brushed my forehead. “Kel, shit this isn’t you, is
