Chapter 8
When Evie and I got inside the car, I turned on the engine. We slowly both looked at each other and screamed.“Oh…my…goddess!” we both said in unison. “What the hell just happened, Ev's!??” I was tongue tied.As I sat there trying to catch my breath and get my thoughts together due to this unexpected encounter, Evie was doing the same. I had to ask what happened between Jerry and her because if I thought about it well, did they also feel what I felt with Ivan?“Ev’s, what happened with Jerry back there? I saw the way you both reacted.” Looking at her searching for an answer.She looked up and had a puzzled expression. “When I laid my eyes on Jerry, I felt a feeling I have never felt before Nat.” She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “I think…I think it felt like love at first sight, you know, and when he touched my hand Nat…I felt tingles, like electrifying tingles shooting up my arm.” My breath h~Ivan’s POV~‘F*ck!’ I can’t stop thinking about this girl. I feel like my body has been lit on fire. I wish I had her right here with me. The things I would do to her.I was still on cloud nine at the fact that today we got to see her. Elated that I made the decision to go to the outlets with the boys and only to bump into her, so freaking lucky. At first, the guys wanted to go eat, but I wanted to hurry up and get some more basketball shorts and training shoes. Best decision ever. As soon as I stepped into the store, a delicious delectable smell hit my nose. Faint but there. I followed it, and when my eyes caught the sight of her body and her long ponytail, something told me it was her. The urge to grab her by the waist, slamming her body against mine and kissing her neck was excruciating.She looked surprised to see me, but she quickly masked that emotion. Damn this girl was something else. However, her heart
~Christian’s POV~I crushed my lips on hers. I pinched her side to force her to open her mouth. My tongue slipped in, and damn if she didn’t taste good. I deepened the kiss, and I could feel the swells of her breast against my chest. Her smell was intoxicating. She was trying so hard to wiggle herself away from my grip, but we both know who's stronger. Her body, being this close, was doing things to mine. I wanted more. I wanted to explore her entire body and feel her hands on mine.My erection was noticeable when I felt a sharp pain in my neck. Did she just do some freaking karate sh*t on me? I let go, and she kicked my stomach hard. This girl doesn’t stop surprising me. I looked up and smirked. She is hot, so f*cking hot. “YOU A**HOLE!” She looked like she was about to…wait…her eyes looked watery. “I’m sorry Natalie…I just had to. I’ve been wanting to hold you and kiss you, I couldn’t contain myself” I said, holding my stom
The drive was almost twenty-five minutes for us. My pack was not as far from the Academy as it was for the Midnight Pack. I think it was a whopping forty-five minutes for them. Humans attending our school came from smaller towns. They were either privileged or intelligent, so keeping our identity was crucial.Not every human knew of our existence, and those who knew, because of whatever reason, were sworn or threatened not to say anything. They were frightened, and they had every reason to be. We were vicious and strong when it came to defending our kind, especially our own packs.We were coming up a hill when the Academy became visible. The institute gave out Harvard vibes but with fewer buildings. As a matter of fact, I think it was older than Harvard.Since we lived in Tennessee, Fall was slowly making its appearance. Everything about autumn gives me a euphoric ambiance. The leaves turn into beautiful, vibrant colors, and t
The bell finally rang, and Mr. Garcia cleared his throat. “Hello everyone! My name is Lorenzo Garcia, but for you guys, it is Mr. Garcia.It’s a pleasure to see every one of you. I would like each of you to introduce yourself starting from the back.” Hell…this was not my day. The teacher was already staring at me so I knew I was going to go first. “You in the back in the left corner, let's start with you young lady.” He pointed at me and winked.‘Okay…’ I sneered and hoped he didn’t catch that. I was irritated, not because of him but of the conversation I had with Christian.I stood up and I could feel all eyes on me. ‘Great!’ Even Christian turned around with his annoying self. I could see from my peripheral vision that Ivan was looking at me too. I took off my hoodie from my waist and both noticed the action. “Hi, I’m Natalie Adams.” I was about to sit down, but the
Class, was almost over, so we hurried up and changed while some of us took a quick shower. I always take a fast shower. Evie quickly came over to me and grabbed my stuff for me. We left together since we had our third-period class together.Evie wanted to ask again, but I promised to tell her everything after school.We got to our class and sat in the back. To our surprise, Jerry walked in and I didn’t miss the twinkle in his orbs when he saw Evie. His face morphed into a huge grin. He walked over to us and he kindly asked the girl sitting next to her to find another seat.Evie was blushing so badly that she looked like a tomato. Our teacher, Mrs. Tina Chen strolled in, introducing herself quickly, and had the class doing it as well. Anatomy was an interesting subject. I was intrigued by anything that had to do with the human body.However, they should have been a class for our kind, like the anatomy of a werewolf, I snickered.Once class
I’m a foodie and food makes me happy. One can say that if I was human, I would definitely be a chef or one of those people passionate about food going to other countries like Anthony Bourdain. My body swayed to the music as I read my book, while eating. The book I was reading had me in a trance. I was enjoying myself when I felt the urge to look up. I felt prying eyes on me. I stopped myself from doing so because I was worried it was Christian, especially after the stunt I pulled on him in class. I could get in trouble.All of a sudden, Ivan's aroma engulfed me and he was standing right before me. I look up with food stuffed in my mouth, getting embarrassed that I must probably look like a pig. I pull out an earbud and he chuckles, “Do you mind if I sit with you?” He asked as he stared intently. I shake my head no, not minding his heavenly scent. I quickly chewed my food and swallowed it. I grabbed a napkin to clean my mouth just in case I
When we made it to class, he followed me as I made my way to the back of the classroom. I felt thrilled when he decided to sit next to me. I couldn’t help but glance at him as he prepared for class. It wouldn’t hurt to look, right? He suddenly looked up as if he could sense me gawking at him. I turned around quickly feeling embarrassed that he caught me peeping again.‘Geez what is wrong with me? I’m acting like a dog in heat!’ Zoe was laughing at my remark. ‘Girl we got it bad with this one. He’s so hot though. I wonder how his wolf looks? She sounded flustered. I mentally rolled my eyes. ‘Stop it and control yourself, girl,’ I said.Then that joy faded when Camila walked in. ‘Just my freaking luck.’Ivan saw her walk in and he groaned. She started to make her way to him when she suddenly stopped. She looked at him and she looked upset. Turning around she sat towards the front of the class throwing her backpack on the floor. ‘Did Ivan just mind linking her to sit away from him?’
~Ivan’s POV~I went to my locker and met up with Axel, Jerry, and Camila. I had already warned Camila about being touchy and affectionate with me. She was big time bothered but she knows better than to disobey my commands. No one questions the Alpha.My team is there to back me up, not to provoke me. I care about them and I would defend them with all I have and for that I demand obedience, honesty, and loyalty.Camila looked like sh*t. She wouldn’t even look at me and I’m sure the boys sensed the tension as well.I mind-linked all three telling them to meet me at my car in 10 to 15 minutes since we drove here together. There was someone I needed to see before she left and I needed to act fast.Natalie turned out to be more than what I expected. Whatever happened with her and Camila in the restroom had me curious and I have questions that needed answers.I think she whooped Camila’s a**. The way Camil
