"When an Alpha finds their mate it's a pretty big deal".
"Wait, I thought your dad was Alpha?".
"When he steps down the title will become mine. You will stand by my side, you will become my Luna, you will help me run our pack". "Jake-... I-.".
"You need some time to process babe and that's okay. I'll give you that time but just so you know I'm not going anywhere. Now that you have acknowledged the bond it'll be harder to stay apart". He needed to slow down and stop talking. My mind was going into overdrive.
"Can I ask you something?".
"Anything princess. I will always be honest with you".
"If you've always known there was someone out there for you why did you sleep with all those girls?". Even asking the question made me cringe. It wasn't any of my business before but now it was.
"I'm twenty four I didn't think I'd ever find you. Usually when you turn eighteen that's when it's supposed to happen but for me it didn't. Could say I needed something to keep me occupied". At least he was honest.
"And now?". I asked sinking my teeth into my bottom lip.
"I am as much yours as you are mine". He growled. "There will only ever be you Leah. I don't want or need anyone else".
"I don't like it when girls touch you". At least now I knew why I felt the rage within me. "I don't get jealous Jake but I did, I do". I whispered. I had never been the jealous type but with him the slightest thing got to me. "You don't have to be jealous babe I-..."
"But you get jealous to. Ryan is my friend, you've been with most of the girls that hate me". Pushing the covers off I swung my legs over the side of my bed. My brain wouldn't shut off after everything I have learned tonight. "You don't see the way they look at me. Threatening me when I'm out for coffee. It's horrible and there is only so much I can take before I snap".
"Babe-..."
"No Jake". Cutting him off I got to my feet switching on my bedside lamp. "If they hated me before then they'll despise me now. They could hurt me".
He growled, snarled even. My heart pounded against my chest.
"They hurt you they'll die". His teeth were clenched, his eyes slanted.
"Don't be ridiculous". I sighed rubbing a hand down my face.
"What did you just say to me?". He snapped pushing the covers off and jumping out of bed. "This isn't ridiculous Leah, your life isn't ridiculous. If anyone was to hurt you then-..."
"You'd kill them". Rolling my eyes my heart jumped when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me to him.
"I'd do worse than that princess. I'd sink my teeth into their neck and rip their f*****g heads off. No one touches you". He was physically shaking, his eyes no longer brown but black.
His wolf.
"No one touches you but me". His grip tightened as he held me closer burying his head in my neck. "You're mine Leah, every single bit of you is mine". He was breathing deeply as if breathing in my scent was helping him calm down. "O-okay". I stuttered. I was shaking, I was afraid. I wasn't sure Jake was Jake anymore.
"Don't be afraid of me Leah, never be afraid". He whispered his grip loosening. "I'll never hurt you ever".
"I know". I whispered. I believed everything he was saying. I knew he would never hurt me intentionally.
As he pulled back he brought his hand up cupping my face. "You want to go to bed?". Running his thumb over my bottom lip I couldn't help it, my tongue caught it, a tingling sensation building in the pit of my stomach.
His eyes burned through mine, his teeth clenched. It only excited me, made me want to see what else could happen. With my good hand I ran my fingers slowly up his arm resting it on top of his shoulder.
"Princess". He growled as I moved my fingers slowly down his chest.
"What?". I whispered my hand stopping just above the top of his boxers. Dropping my eyes to his lips and back again I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip. I wanted to kiss him. I've never wanted to kiss him as badly as I do right now. I was turned on, my heart racing. I was nervous but excited and I wanted more. He made me feel alive, awake inside. Slipping my hand into the waistband of his boxers he froze.
"Babe". He hissed as I moved my hand lower, I could feel his pubic hair beneath my fingers. "Stop". He growled placing his hand on top of mine.
It was like I had been hit with cold water. What was I doing? Pulling my hand back I put some distance between us. Did I really just have my hand in his boxers?
Oh god.
Sinking my teeth into my bottom lip I tried my hardest not to laugh. I laughed when I was nervous and when I put myself into weird situations.
"Leah". As he took a step towards me I put my hand up. I was embarrassed. I had made a fool of myself by attempting to seduce him. I wasn't sure if that's what I was doing.
"You should go". He didn't need to know I was embarrassed.
"Babe don't-.."
"Just go Jake". I was so stupid in thinking he would want that. I was stupid for even trying, I was jumping in and it back fired.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"It's 3am princess I'm going nowhere". My mouth fell open as I watched him climb back into bed. Smirking at me he patted my side. "You just going to stand there or are you getting in?".
Rolling my eyes I turned off my light and climbed back in. He was so smug at times, I wanted to punch him. Rolling onto my side I turned away from him and closed my eyes. He matched my movements, his arm sliding over my stomach pulling me closer to him. "Jake what-..."
"Just go to sleep princess". He grunted.
