POV Lilly
Jasmine and I hurried to our lockers and first period. Griffin and Cedric both smirked as they followed us in. Of course, Cedric sat next to Jasmine and Griffin sat next to me.
I smiled at Griffin and he grinned back while Jasmine ignored Cedric and sighed. Cedric tried to get her attention for a moment and then gave up.
"Hey Griffin! Guess what?" Cedric called over our heads.
Griffin looked surprised but looked over and shrugged.
"What ?" He replied.
"My class schedule got changed. I have all the same classes as you. Isn't that strange?" Cedric continued.
I looked over to Jasmine in shock. She looked livid. That meant that Cedric would have all the same classes as us too.
"Asshole." Jasmine mumbled and I nodded in agreement.
"I'm sorry, did you say something, Beloved?" Cedric asked with a grin.
I gasped. I had no idea what was about to go down but I had a feeling that it
POV LillyAs we walked the hallways, I realized that we were a bit early for lunch and most of the classes hadn't gotten out yet. The hall was deserted. I looked over to see Jasmine furrowing her eyebrows at something or someone. I followed her eye line to see Ember with her back to us, leaning on some lockers. I frowned as we got closer. It looked like she was crying."Ember? Are you okay?" I asked softly.She looked startled and jumped a bit when she caught sight of us. She quickly wiped her eyes and chuckled."Oh, of course. Your men are all pissed off that you three went AWOL." she tried to defer but I shook my head."Come on, Ember. I know that you don't know us very well yet but we want to help. We want to be your friends." Jasmine tried.Ember looked at us in disbelief."Even if I told you that Cedric told me what you are? Do you want to still be friends? Knowing that my kind brutally used yours? That I c
POV GriffinWe all walked back to the table and sat by our mates while Dolph stood in hesitation for a moment. He examined Cedric and Ember carefully as he stood there. I could see his jaw clench when he realized how close both of them were to Lilly. Lilly saw him and smiled at him brightly. She seemed to think for a moment and then she nodded for me to move down and pulled a chair between her and Jasmine. Jasmine looked at her in alarm but relaxed when she looked into Lilly's eyes."Dolph! Will you sit by Jasmine and I? Please?" Lilly asked. Dolph looked startled and glanced at me. I nodded and he grinned and hurried to take the seat. He looked so pleased and proud of himself. It warmed my heart and I grinned at Lilly, knowing that she was making a special effort to make sure he felt included."So what were you two troublemakers up to all morning? Skipping school?" Dolph shook his head."Here I though that you two wou
POV GriffinI hurried to change and rushed out to the gym with Theo and Dolph. I took a seat on the bleachers next to Cedric who was talking to Axel and Stone about something. I looked around to see a few girls already out but none of them were Lilly, Jasmine or Nik so I didn't pay them any attention. The gym seemed louder today for some reason."What are you planning on doing with Lilly this afternoon?" Theo asked.I shrugged, "I was going to take her out to eat and then to the river. You know, maybe show her around the town. She hasn't been able to see much of it yet." I replied and he nodded."When are you going to introduce her to the pack?" Dolph asked."I have to talk to Dad about that. It'd be easier to introduce Rose at the same time. Hell, we might as well introduce the whole family then." I answered."Wait, what? Why would you introduce Jasmine and her mother to the pack? They aren't any part of
POV LillyThe next period felt strange without Griffin and Cedric. Luckily Axel and Dolph stuck by us and kept us entertained. They were both hilarious and I was glad to see Dolph getting along with Axel. I could tell that Vampires made Dolph nervous.Jasmine and I both felt a bit bad about how the football game went down. We were just so upset about Griffin and Cedric being overprotective. We wanted to show them that we could take care of ourselves. "I can't believe that move you did, Lilly! It was awesome!" Dolph laughed."Or the way Jasmine took down Mark? It was perfect! Did you see his face?" Axel added.The two of them were enjoying the situation far too much. I shrugged and Jasmine rolled her eyes and chuckled."You'd think that they'd learn not to underestimate us by now." Jasmine muttered and I agreed.The only reason we went so hard was because we saw Cedric and Griffin telling Dolph and Axel to "watc
POV GriffinI just laughed as Lilly glared at me. I pulled her over to my bike and put my helmet on her. She reluctantly got on the back of my bike in a bit of a daze and I took off, leaving most of the students staring at us in disbelief. I understood their stares. I was well known as a player. To the humans, it made no sense that I would suddenly fall for the new girl especially so quickly. To the Werewolves and Vampires, I had announced countless times that I would reject any mate and continue my player ways so to act so suddenly and rashly was shocking.But she wasn't just any mate. She was MY mate. She was special. She was perfect... at least for me. I couldn't even think about rejecting her. She was mine.I smiled in satisfaction as she held my waist closely. She cuddled into my back and I couldn't remember a time when I felt so peaceful and happy. Just my girl and me on my bike, going wherever the
Lilly POVI glared at Griffin as I answer the call. I know that this is going to be awful. Chance is going to kill me. He was a bit... protective, always had been even before and after we dated." Hey Chance! Good timing. I need to tell you something..." I began but he cut me off."WHAT. THE. FUCK. LILLY?!!" Chance spat and I cringed.Crap. I'm screwed." Oh, so you've heard..." I replied, faintly, glancing at Griffin who is looking enraged."Why did Evan and I just get a message from the Alpha of the Savage Pack that you and your family will be coming to the wedding with them? And then he added that you're bringing Vampires too? What the hell is going on? " he roared.I winced at his tone and Griffin snatched the phone away from me before I could stop him."You need to fucking watch how you speak to my mate." Griffin growled into the phone.I dropped my head back on the seat
POV GriffinLilly smirked at me and then checked the clock."I'm going to go shower and then pack. You better get dressed before Jasmine comes home." she said and I looked at the clock.It was a little after ten and I remembered that I needed to call Evan. I quickly pulled my boxers and pants on and found a new shirt in my bag as I threw the other one in the laundry basket in her room."Yeah. I need to call Evan. Do you have his number?" I asked Lilly after she gathered her clothes.In a breathtaking show of trust, she grabbed her phone, unlocked it and handed it to me."Yeah. It's in my contacts under Alpha Evan." she replied as she walked to the bathroom.Shocked, I looked down at the phone for a moment. She left me alone with her unlocked phone in my hand! I quickly looked in her contacts and found his number. I put it into my phone and saved it. I paused for a moment, tempted to go through her
POV LillyAs I got out of the shower, I could hear Griffin talking to Evan clear as day. I didn't mean to eves drop but I heard my name and couldn't help it. I wondered at my ability to hear Evan through the phone but quickly became distracted by the information I heard. I couldn't believe what Evan had told Griffin. I couldn't believe that Chance had changed so much. He was so sweet and kind when I lived there. Surely, there was a mistake.Hearing that Evan's mate was a seer was a surprise as well. I had never heard of a seer being a Luna. After hearing what she saw, I was sure that Griffin was going to come charging in and mark me halfway through the conversation so I kept listening so I could be prepared. When he refused at the end, I was floored. I was touched. I couldn't believe that he loved me so much. That he cared for me so deeply. It stirred something in me and I could feel my protective walls start to come c
