My heart pounded as I watched the flickering of his eyes and waited for Rowen to make his choice.He started to take a step toward me. He needs to get control back somehow. I smirked as I extended my hand toward the bathroom and lifted a large stream of water out of the tub. He’s eyes are focused only on me. He can’t see what’s about to crash down over his head. I released the water and watched his eyes as it started pouring down over him. Nothing, he shook his head a couple of times, but his wolf is still in control. That’s the only warning he’s getting. He took one more step and started closing in on me. I threw a right hook at his face, but he caught my arm. He held on to me so tight it didn’t matter how much I twisted my arm I couldn’t break free. I spun, and I felt the break in my forearm as he still wouldn’t loosen his grip. I spun back and quickly landed a kick to his abdomen. It was strong enough to knock him back. The wet floor helped me, and he started sliding as he trie
Dawson must have noticed how annoyed I was. After we walked into my room, he wrapped his arm around me and turned me to face him.“Hey, are you sure your OK,” Dawson watched my expression as I hesitated.“Yah, I’m fine. Rowen lost control of his wolf when he first got here. I didn't expect it, and it shook me up a little, but I handled it.”I watched Dawson’s expression change as he noticed my arm. He put his hand under my elbow and lifted my arm up for a better view.“Is he responsible for this?”I nodded, “yes, his wolf was in control, and I was trying to throw him out. He wouldn’t let go of my arm when I started fighting him. This is the result. I’m not worried about it. By tomorrow it will be healed.”I watched Dawson’s expression as he examined my arm and looked back up at me. I can’t tell if he’s concerned or pissed.“Bella, I know I said I would rather share you than not have you at all, but I don’t like this. I don’t think you should be around him at all, at least not alone. H
The drive home was quiet. It took me a little while to process everything Dawson said. I’ve been so caught up in my own problems, I haven’t paid attention to the world around me.He said that Moonlight was a little different because people are forced to go to classes together and associate. I need to watch how they act toward each other outside of their classes.I turned my head to sneak a peek at Dawson as he parked his truck. He’s so sweet. Tonight was perfect. He’s someone I could get lost in conversation with. He’s smart, and I have a feeling that nothing gets past him. He knows exactly what goes on around him.I also need to give him credit. He didn’t try anything. I don’t know if it’s because of what happened with Rowen before we went out, or if he just wants to get to know each other better.Dawson turned his head and smiled, “Is everything OK?”“Yah, everything is perfect. Thank you for tonight. I had a really good time.”“You don’t sound too convincing.”I laughed, “no really
“Come with me. There’s something I want to show you.” Creed continued staring into my eyes as he tucked a piece of my hair behind my ears. He’s trying to distract me, and it’s working. I blinked my eyes and looked away to pull myself out of the trance I fall into every time I look into his eyes. I looked around at everyone, “what’s it going to be? Do you agree to leave him alone for a while?”I watched as the boys all looked at each other. “Whatever you’re planning you might as well say out loud.”Ryker smirked, “I get what you’re saying, Bella. I’ll make a deal with you. If you go with Creed and just let us have a chat with Rowen, I promise we won’t kill him. That’s the best I can do. I want to see for myself what kind of control issues he has.”I thought about it for a minute. I know the boys are trying to investigate all three of my mates undetected and this could help. Besides, I’ll be with the one that I’m most worried about. The boys won’t kill him. It’s not their style. Creed
***Warning Mature Content***Creed is smiling from ear to ear, and still breathing hard. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen him this happy. He ran his hand down my arm as he inspected it. “Perfect, just like you.” He bent down and captured my lips with his. He’s shaking just as much as I am.What in the world just happened? Creed continued to devour my mouth like he couldn’t get enough. He needs me just as much as I need him. “What just happened?” I asked Creed when he pulled back to take a breath.He ran his fingertips down the side of my face and smiled, “It worked, and well,” Creed nodded slightly.“He likes you.”I laughed, “who likes me, your dragon?”“Yah, and me. You’re not getting away from us.” He started kissing around my neck and back up until he landed on my lips. “So, I take it that’s a yes, and you felt everything the same as I did.” “Yes, babe, I felt it. It felt amazing. I don’t ever want to lose that feeling.” Creed picked me up and started carrying me.I smacked his
For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been playing everything over and over in my mind, but I can’t make any sense out of it.The fire that burns between me and Creed is unreal. I feel the deepest connection with him, and our bond is the strongest. Is it because I spend more time with him, or is there something more that I’m missing?He is the only one of my mates that has touched me. Maybe that’s why my connection to Dawson and Rowen isn’t as strong.It’s weird. I really enjoy the time that I spend with Dawson. He’s gorgeous, sweet, caring, smart, and down-to-earth. Any girl would love the opportunity to be with him. He makes me open my eyes to the world around us, and I’ll admit I never realized how bad the divide between supernatural races was.The bond pulls us both toward each other, but it’s like we have developed this deep friendship connection. He has never tried anything with me. He hugs me, and holds my hand, but nothing more. My body wants him, and I can tell by his facial ex
I knocked on Rowen’s door and Dawson let go of my hand. I froze for a minute when Rowen answered the door. He was shirtless, and only wearing a pair of loose-fitting gray sweatpants that were hanging dangerously low on his hips. My eyes roamed up and down his body on their own accord. Rowen smirked, “come on in.”“Really man,” Dawson gave him a disgusted look. “Hey, this is my date. You can leave if you don’t like my attire.”Dawson shook his head and followed me in. Rowen had a single room, and he put pillows up against the wall on his bed to give us the feeling of sitting on a couch. All three of us had a beer while we ate some snacks and made small talk. I did notice the tenseness that Dawson was talking about. When Rowen talked to Dawson, he seemed relaxed while they laughed and joked. When he looked at me, he tensed up. I put my arm around Dawson and rested my head on his shoulder to test his theory. Rowen bit his bottom lip and scanned my body with his eyes, and the tensene
I linked all three of the boys. “One of you go to the hall and take him to your room when he tries to leave.” They didn’t link me back, but I watched Ezra and Drake slip out the door.Creed continued to stare me down, “Bella please.”“No Creed, I’ve heard enough. You need to leave.”I can tell by the look in his eyes and his silence that he can’t defend himself in front of everyone else. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, but I’m going to find out.It’s not like him to allow Rowen or anyone to talk to him like that. How did Rowen even find out who Creed is? Nothing is making sense.Creed needs to get out of here. Rowen isn’t stopping. He’s doing everything he can to make Creed lose control, and he’s holding on by a thread. I can see his eyes starting to flicker.“Leave Creed!” I yelled.He bit his lip and slightly nodded before he turned around and walked out. Slamming the door as he exited.I let out a deep breath and Ryker grabbed a hold of me. Pulling me into a mu
