TylerChase growls inside me because we now know the reason that bastard drugged our mate. But he has already been captured and is being taken care of, and now we have a mate who is in heat to take care of.My eyes wander around the room and i realize that we have a hell of a lot of audience. The men that had come in to see the commotion and to help us dispose Harry off are still in the room. Most of them are unmated and I don't miss the glint of lust in their eyes as they look at Jayla, groaning and suffering on the bed.They are all eyeing my mate with clear lust evident in their eyes, some with dark eyes-meaning their wolf is in control- and I growl angrily.I see Jasper too struggling. His eyes are fixed at the ground and his palms are curled into fists. His jaw is clenched and his eyes constantly change colors showing that he is fighting with his wolf. Being an alpha, his wolf instincts are the strongest, but it makes Chase and I happy that he is trying to control himself.From t
JaylaI shut my locker with a slam and duck my head. I hug my books closer to my chest as I make my way out of the corridors, trying not to pay attention to the murmuring that is following me.From the corner of my eye, I notice students shamelessly pointing at me and whispering to themselves. Some give me pitiful looks, while others give me cold looks and snicker at me.I clench my books closer to me and lower my head to hide my face with my hair. More than half of our school population is werewolf, and more than ninety percent of them know all about what happened yesterday.The scene that Tyler created on my birthday, paired with what happened yesterday has stirred up gossip and has led to me becoming the center of attention of Braham High. That's just great.I am two seconds away from being a part of the Mean Girls movies . I won't be surprised if a director comes to me to take my life story as an inspiration.Everyone believes that me and Tyler did it last night, and now I am bei
Jayla "I...uh..." Shane scratches his neck sheepishly as he tries to form a sentence. "You know.""No, I don't know," I say curtly, narrowing my eyes at him.He always scratches his neck when he has done something wrong. I know him.He bites his lip and looks at me with his big blue eyes. "Please don't be mad at me, Jay, but I kinda broke my promise. I just got so engrossed in training."I sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose, as I remember the last day before he left."What? Today?" I paced around in his room worriedly as he threw clothes from his closet into his suitcase. "What do you mean by you are leaving today?"Shane ignored me and continued packing hurriedly."What about school? You haven't completed senior year yet. It's just a matter of eight months! Complete it, get your diploma and then go. What's the hurry?" I queried.The fact that Shane was talking about leaving right then, scared me and all I could think about was how he would manage. He needed to complete high school
JaylaTyler's blunt question catches me off guard. Should I tell him the truth? I decide to take another approach.I take a deep breath and nod my head confidently. "Obviously, I regret it. Infact, I'm glad you stopped. I'm glad that we didn't end up mating because I would have regretted it a lot this morning."Tyler growls at my bluntness and he pins me against the table by placing both of his arms on either of my sides. His eyes turn black, telling me his wolf is trying to take control. He is filled with nothing but rage and his jaw ticks in fury."Oh, really?" he grits out. "You regret it, huh?"I nod, my eyes challenging him. I am doing this deliberately. I want to get a reaction out of him. It gives me some sort of sadistic joy in knowing I can affect him like this."So you're telling me that if I do this," he says, leaning in to brush his lips against mine, "that you will stop me?"I gasp and my heart starts thudding fast when l feel his lips against mine. Even though he barely
JaylaMy eyes look at Tyler questioningly as I watch his entire expression fall. I give him an expectant look but he looks away. "Which rumor are you talking about?" he asks.I purse my lips and give him a blank stare. "You know which rumor I am talking about." He shakes his head and I sigh. "The rumor that says that you and I slept together last night," I tell him in a slow voice- the type of voice you use to explain something to a kindergartener.His jaw clenches and he narrows his eyes at me. "What is wrong with that rumor anyway?"My eyes widen and I gasp, so shocked that he could say that. "What do you mean by 'what is wrong with that rumor'? Everything is wrong with that rumor!" I say, my temper beginning to flare.He crosses his arms across his chest and replies coolly. "Oh, yeah. I don't see anything wrong in people thinking that I'm in an intimate relationship with my mate."Okay, what the actual hell? Why the hell is he defending that goddamn rumor, and the person who sprea
Jayla"What are you doing here?" I ask him in a shocked voice."I had the keys!" he says with a goofy grin on his face and I sigh."Seriously, Shane, you need to return the spare keys to me. You've had them for years!"He jiggles the keys between his hands for a while before grinning at me, and then he hops on his feet and runs out of the room."How 'bout no?" his voice calls from the hall and I know what it means. It means war!With an animalistic cry, I follow behind him and sprint, trying to catch up with his Gamma speed, which, by the way, is almost impossible."Wait till I catch you!" I tell him, trying to climb over the couch and grab him.He laughs and waves the keys in front of my eyes. "I'll have to wait forever!"I lunge at him from across the couch, but he dodges at the last moment, making me land on the carpet with a thud."Ouch!" I groan out as my butt comes in contact with the floor.There is an awkward moment of silence for a while and Shane stares unblinkingly at me fr
JaylaI don't realize that I had dozed off until I feel a tingling sensation on my face, waking me up from slumber. It is a soft touch. It's warm too. The one that makes you lean in and pull the person closer to you. I know I am smiling as I lean into the touch, wanting more. The tingling sensation continues as the person strokes my cheeks and neck.I don't even want to open my eyes. I am afraid that it will just be a dream, and when I open my eyes, he won't be there anymore. But I have to open my eyes. I can't close them forever.My eyes flutter open and I gaze intently at the person in front of me. The person the Moon Goddess has destined for me to be with forever. The only one who is supposed to love and cherish me. The one I am supposed to live and die for.Tyler sees that I am awake and he smiles at me. It is such a genuine smile without any trace of arrogance or cockiness. Just a simple, caring smile.But I can't smile because I have too many questions. Too many to be answered.
JaylaHe apologized, and he gave an explanation. I should be satisfied and I should forgive him because his explanation sounds valid enough, but for some reason, I just can't bring myself to do that. Something in me isn't ready to forgive him yet and somewhere in my heart I know I can forgive him, but I can't forget. I can never forget how belittled and hurt I felt.I take my hand out of his grip and disentangle our fingers. I put my hands on my lap and start fiddling with them."Tyler," I say. "Look, I get your explanation. I get why you did it but I feel like I have given you too many chances." I pause for a while to gather my thoughts.I continue. "I have given you a lot of chances and everytime you screw up, a part of me breaks. What you did, and why you did it- the explanation- might have eased my curiosity, but my pain is yet to be healed. I can't forgive you that easily, Tyler. I'm sorry."I look out of the window and sigh. I know I am being difficult but I don't want to give h
