GoodReadXade's pov Her scent lured me. I should have known it was dangerous following her to the party. But I couldn't resist. Every single fiber in my being wanted to be with her, be beside her.
And the way she dressed, I admit I am jealous of others seeing her so sexy. Those should have only been for my eyes. My beast growled inwardly in agreement.
"Wait!" Melissa yelled behindas I move through the bodies. Her hand grip around my forearm and I jerked it out quickly, repulsed by her touch. I turn around to glare and she flinched back.
"I didn't get your name." She nervously looked up at me.
I ground my teeth. My mate was waiting foron the porch, I could smell her, she's beckoningto cto her. I looked behind Melissa to the boy who was glaring at me. I nudged my head. "You should probably focus on someone else." As soon as she turned around I distanced myself until I disappear from her sight and head for the front door. I can hear her heart beat, a sweet rhythm that madewant to put my ear on her chest to listen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer little breaths that cout as pants. The way her eyes stared up atawhile ago. I gripped the door hard, fighting the urge to control myself. Just one more look. One more look and I'll get out of there.
Xaden was right, I am closely being watched, I cannot risk them seeingwith her. Yet, I can't seem to stay away. I'm screwing this up aren't I? I cracked the door open and stepped out onto the porch, closing the door behindas I pulled a lungful of her scent in. God that scent is drivinginsane. Before I knew it I am in front of her, fighting with my beast to not just reach out and kiss her.
She'd find it strange right? A stranger just kissing her without permission. If I kiss her, I wouldn't be able to stop to. Fuck! I gripped the banister as my claws push out, ripping into the wood until it splinter under my strength. A battle raged on inwardly, her scent and the way her pretty eyes stared up atmaking this all the more challenging.
I am this close to losing it. This close to flying all causation out of the window. I shouldn't have chere. I shouldn't have- A sound made my ears perk and I snap my attention to the shift among the bushes. The scent. A wolf. The power. A council member. Dammit. Fuck! How much had they seen? How much did they hear? I needed to leave now. Without another word because I do not trust myself to say the right things when it comes to her, I stormed down the steps and froze when she called out to me.
Like a puppet on a string, she makesweak to her and I find myself turning back to catch a glimpse of her on the porch. She was a beauty. My beauty. She wanted my name, but I'd rather have her know it when she's moaning it out of her lips. Something that wasn't possible now.
I needed to leave. Now.
I disappeared from her sight, her stare leaving tingles down my back as I get swamped by the thick foliage. When I know I am at a safe distance and wasn't followed, I ripped my clothes off my body and shifted.
The council member wasn't too far. I could still smell and sense his power. With a low vibrating growl, my paws dig into the earth and then I took off.
I had been too focused on Avery to have noticed I was being watched now. I should have been able to sense him a mile away...was I weakening this much? My senses were not as strong as they were before.
Day by day I am weakening. My wolf was dying and it wouldn't take long until my human flesh follow suit.
As I run through the forest blindly, I noticed a dark blur from the corner of my eye, the scent of the council member now stronger than it had been before. I skidded to a stop and wait to see what he would do.
He reveals himself not a second later, his huge beast pushing out of the shadows. He shifts. Henry. I should have recognized that power and scent. He grinned. "Shift." He toldand I complied, shifting into my human form.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Followingaround like a stalker?" I growled, my fist clenching.
Henry raised a brow. "Someone has to make sure you follow the rules this time." I balled my fists, growling. "I'm not a kid! I know I should stay away from her." Henry's eyes danced in amusement much to my irritation. “You should, but you didn't," he pointed out and makingstiffen.
He chuckle low. "I have been assigned to you to make sure you you don't go sneaking off to see her.
You've failed at that by the way. I should really inform the head of your disobedience."
What's the worst that could happen if I kill him here? Will I even have the strength to fight him when my wolf has weakened this badly? Would I even stand a chance in this state? "But I won't." He said, surprising me. I looked at him skeptically. "Why won't you? Better yet, what do you want in return?" I gritted.
Henry smirked. "A secret for a secret.
I want you to keep a girl hidden in your huntil I figure out a solution to not make Alister know about her still being alive. In return, I keep the secret that this human girl, Avery, is your mate."
