Elijah P.O.V.Two months ago... "Before I made that bet."I felt terrible with Avery with the flagpole scene that morning, but I had to stay in character with her. I can't let people know I am in love with the shy wallflower nerd in school. I would be a laughing stake in the school. So, I hide my feelings for her. But, I knew she was the one since last year when we were in our junior high school. So, I have been stalking and following her until I had to go to football camp/alpha training this summer. So, I could not keep my eyes on her all time, but I did have a close-pack member watch over for me when I was gone to make sure she stayed out of trouble and didn't do anything stupid. I don't need that loser to get in my way."Yeah, right, that's what you think," I heard Axel say inside my mind with a laugh.I rolled my eyes at him, and I was going to start walking away, but I kept hearing Avery yelling up at me. I felt terrible so I grabbed the rope and pulled it, and she fell wi
Elijah P.O.V.When I was pulling up to my house. I drove in the driveway. I put my baby in the park and shut off the engine. I opened the door and I saw no one was home. I forgot my parents are a way for the second honeymoon they never got to go to their first one because they were under attack. I hoped they were enjoying themself. I didn’t want to think about what they were doing; I made a disgusting face. But I was glad my parents loved each chatter and I hoped I will have that with Avery soon. I just want this day to be over with and I go see my mate and hug her and kiss her.I needed her like I needed to breathe. She is my soulmate and I won’t give her up over my dead body. It’s weird how Sebastian showed up after all these years too. What did he want with Avery, my mate?I remembered she would try to stay out of his way, and she would be scared when he was near. At the time I didn’t know why she acted like that. But now I saw she was terrified of him every time he was around. She
Avery P.O.V.When I was watching Elijah and Jake talking it looked very tense and serious. I wanted to know what they were talking about. But I should just shut the curtains and step away from the window, but I can’t. I am so hypnotized by how beautiful they both are. I wished they would see me like that the way I see them. I know there is more to meet the eye with them being around me and being my mate. I know they are because I can feel it. I was in my own little world when I heard mumbling getting louder. Then I watched Jake shake his head at Elijah with sadness and a broken expression on his face and he walked away from him. I saw Jake jump inside his truck and speed out of my driveway and down the road. I saw his taillights in the shadow of the nightly sky. I turn my head back towards Elijah and I see himStaring off at Jake's truck with a sad expression on his face, and I saw him turn his face back towards my window, I gasped and shut off my lights and I hurried back and hid be
Avery P.O.V.“We need to get going sweetheart or we are going to be late for school.” I heard Elijah say with a cocky grin on his face. I looked over at Jake and I saw him look at him with an annoyed and irritated expression on his face and then I saw he rolled his eyes. That was when he turned his head back over toward me. I didn’t know what just happened and why he gave Elijah that kind of expression on his face, I don’t know what is going on with these two, but I know one thing is it’s getting crazy and weird seeing how they are acting to each other. “Yeah princess,” You don’t want to be late, or do you want to stay here and stare at us with your bedroom eyes, huh.” I heard Jake stare into my eyes with a smile on his lips and a laugh deep in his chest. But the smile didn’t reach his eyes. I can see the way he's looking at me. He wants me, I can tell that. Also, he told me that in the last two months ago. I know I should believe him and Elijah, but I am so stubborn and hardheaded.
Jake P.O.V.By the time we all got in the truck and before we headed to school. I heard Avery's stomach. I peeked in the back rear mirror and saw her holding her stomach. “Hey, E,” I said to him in a mind link. He looked over at me, with a what on his face.We need to get our mate something to eat. I can hear her belly rumbling back there.” I told him again in our mind. Then I heard it again in her stomach. She is not going to feel well if she keeps starving herself like this. So, I told Elijah to go through McDonald’s drive-thru. Afterwards, we all got food and ate it on the way to school. After we pulled up at the school and we parked the truck. I see in the corner of my eye movement in the back seat. I see her un-buck her seatbelt and open the door before we got to say something to her. We both turned around and saw her smile and telling us thanks for the ride and breakfast and shut the door and went on her merrily way. I and Elijah watch her walk away with our mouths open an
Avery P.O.V. “Fuck you smell good! Too bad you’re not a virgin. I’ll be popping that cherry.” He tells me. I was shocked by what he said to me. Now, I really need to get out of here. But I can’t move. He got me in a corner on the locker and his body because he got a hold of my hand by my side, and he got a tight grip and his other hand he’s got it wrapped around my waist. Oh, God please get me out of this. I swear I will be good. I won’t skip class or backtalk my elders. I am begging God to help me. I do hope someone comes to save me from this monster. I don’t understand why he has been acting like this. “Damn baby girl, your scent is driving me fucking crazy.” I heard him say under his breath. I don’t think he knows I could hear him, and I don’t think he cares right now. All he cares about is trying to get in between my thighs literally. “Please, let me go!” I asked him. I promise not to say anything, and I will get your work done.” Can I please leave before I am late for homeroom
Avery P.O.V.I heard Matthew yelling at me. When I went around the corner, I ran smack into a hard object, but that was when I heard the object groan. Huh, how can an object have groaned? I looked up and I saw Elijah and Jake right beside him staring at me with a worried expression on their face. I sighed and let out a breath I guess I didn’t know I was holding, and I let out. I didn’t know what I did but I put my arms around them, and I started crying in their arms. I didn’t care I was hugging them, and I am glad it was them and not another person.“Avery! Where have you been.’’ We have been looking everywhere for you.” I heard Jake say. “Yeah, sweetheart we wanted to make sure you’re okay and not hurt,” Elijah said to me. I didn’t mean it but I started crying and my body was shaking because I was so scared.“Hey, sweetheart you are shaking, what’s wrong?” Jake asked me while still rubbing my back.“Nothing, I thought I saw something but never mind I am fine thanks,” I say with a fri
Elijah P.O.V.Damn it, she was just in my arms and now she disappeared again. Man, I was this close to kiss her and pick her up and take her in a quiet classroom or in my truck outside where no one can hear us making love, but she took off running and hiding from me and Jake. But before she left, I saw something twinkle in her feeding eyes. So, I do see the playfulness in her eyes and they are saying come find me big boy’s! I thought okay sweetheart, you want to play hide and seek. I will be glad to find you and give you your fantasies with my mouth, tongue, cock. But I forgot that she does not have just one mate but two and the mate that I am talking about is Jake. So, making sweet love to her is going to be harder than I thought because I am going to get jealous of my best friend. I know we shared girls in the past, but this is not any other girl. This is my dream girl since I was ten years old. I work hard to keep the guys away from her. But I guess it worked for a while until J
