I left the packhouse, slightly concerned that Roger might interrogate Celia about me or the fact that I mentioned running tomorrow. But I felt that I needed to remind Celia about my offer to accompany her to the lake. I might lose my mind if she refused. Eckley agreed that we needed to see her more often. I am pretty sure that Celia will be inhabiting my dreams tonight. I closed my eyes and pictured her naked back, her creamy, pale skin and the enticing curve of her neck as she turned towards me. Eckley was smiling and chuffing with happiness. He said, 'She's special.' I walked towards the dorm realizing that I was going to need a very cold shower. My pants were tight as my erection strained against the fabric. A communal shower room is not really the place you want to have an erection. I was thankful that no other Warriors were in the shower room. The cold water helped right up until I started wondering if the lake water would be th

I made it out the door and about half a block before Carson caught up with me. "Do you know why my Dad wants to see you in his office?" I asked Carson. "What's your plan Celia?" Carson asked in response. "You won't answer my question unless I answer yours. Got it." I didn't really need to know if he knew. I was pretty sure Dad was going to ask Carson about our nonexistent relationship. Or even worse, offer Carson a promotion under the assumption that we had a relationship and I was not telling him the truth. We walked the rest of the way without saying anything. As we got to school, I was suddenly grateful that Carson was not in most of my classes. I breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe he would let it go after all. Ang immediately asked about my morning. "I saw you arrive with Carson." Ang said. breathlessly. "Ang, please, give me some time to think. I don't know what's going on with Carson. It's weird and I think he would ruin my plan if he ever finds out." I sighed and

Eckley is now concerned that Jax is interested in Celia as more than a friend. He spent all of English class pacing in my head and wants to demand Jax tell him if he likes Celia. I reminded Eckley that Celia was not interested in dating a Warrior and Jax is also a Warrior. Eckley reminded me that Celia not being interested in him did not mean that Jax wasn't interested in her and he had to add 'she isn't interested in you either but you aren't going to stop trying'. I hated that he was right. Now, I was starting to worry. What if Jax did like Celia as more than a friend? They had history, I know they had been friends for years. I tried to think of mated Warriors I knew, how had they met? I never really asked. After the Mates Dinner every quarter there were a few Warriors that proudly sported their new marks, happy to tell anyone willing to listen how great their mate was. Had any known their mate before? I didn't know. I had every intention of trying to see Celia. I wanted to

When we reached the cafeteria, Celia turned to look at me. Her bottom lip was swollen and ruby red. She looked like she wanted to say something. As she looked at me, she bit her lip and I realized she must have been biting her lip as we were walking. The only thought in my head was, I want to be the reason her lips are red and swollen. I had an overwhelming urge to kiss her, hard and deep and not stop. I started to move towards her as she turned away. Thank Goddess! I was absolutely sure that had I actually tried to kiss her, she would not be amused. Celia had a temper and didn't like being the center of attention. If I kissed her, here in the lunch room, in front of the whole school, we would definitely be seen and there would be a reaction. There were enough Warriors in our Senior class, that I would take a good ribbing for several days. Celia, as a female, would have a rougher time. Guys would try to kiss her or at the very least make remarks to her about kissing a Warrior. I was

After school, I was trying to decide if I should go to the Luna's office or Roger's office first. I decided the schedule with the Luna would be better first. Then I could give a copy of it to Roger and make sure there was no conflict with my patrol schedule. I jogged to the packhouse. I headed for the pack offices and checked in with Carla. "Hello Carla, is Luna Maisie available?" "Yes Carson. She is expecting you." Carla said as she waved for me to enter. "Luna Maisie" I said as I bowed my head. "Thank you Carson. Going forward, I would like you to be at the packhouse in the evenings from 4 to 9. That way, Ashley will be accustomed to having you as her guard. Also, I will begin having you accompany her when the nanny takes her to the playground or out shopping on weekends." I realized that the Luna was saying guarding Ashley was now my full time job. I was being recalled to the packhouse. "Luna, am I no longer to continue training as a Warrior?" "Haven't you spoken t
