Gwen Apart from the bruises on my face. I looked much better than yesterday. I waited for Jasper to come pick me up. But he didn't show up. It was getting late. There was no way to follow the school bus because it had already left. I contemplated whether I should check up on him or use a cab to school since I was running late. I picked out my phone to message him. Hi. Hope you're good. Waited for you but you didn't show up. I tapped on send. There was no blue tick. Indicating that he wasn't online to see it. I decided to check on him. I was worried. Not hearing from Jasper got me more concerned about what my mother said yesterday. She said he looked distressed. "Gwen!"I was surprised to see Josh coming my way. "What are you doing here?" I asked. He smiled. "I should be asking you. Aren't you supposed to be in school? ""You as well."He nods. "Okay me first. I got back home to pick up Ethan's Atlas. He forgot it. I told him not to worry, that I was going to get it for him. Wh
Jasper Josh didn't look apologetic. He smiled. "What motive? Everyone knows you don't care about her, even though she's your mate." He tapped his feet. "So why the heck are you angry I kissed her."I was going to make sure I tear him limb by limb. What audacity! I gently pushed Gwen. "Get into the house."She hesitated, staring at me like she'd never seen me before. "Now!" I ordered, pointing towards the door. She rushed in. I couldn't help but gaze at her luscious curls cascading down her back. I need to focus. "Is that what you and all other fucking people think? That I don't care about her. So you decided to kiss her on my behalf or what? You must be insane.""She might be weak and wolfless but she's in no way unattractive. I've known this fact for a long time," he said. "I've always liked her. Who knows? I would've made a move before you ruined our lives two years ago." He crossed his arms. "I wouldn't mind if you gave her up. You used to be her bully, remember."Such guts. His
Gwen On Jasper's command, I ran into the house. I wasn't expecting Josh to kiss me and he wasn't sorry that he did. He challenged and attacked Jasper instead.Why was all this happening? I could hear their arguments from the widow. And they began to fight when Jasper couldn't take it anymore from Josh. They both shifted and pounced at each other aggressively. Jasper had reddish-brown fur, just like the color of his hair and Josh's fur was black. When Josh pinned Jasper to the ground. My heart skipped a beat. "Father!" I yelled. "I think Jasper and Josh are going to kill each other." It aches me that Josh had Jasper to the ground. To my su surprise, I only yelled when Jasper was thrown unaware by Josh. I took pity on Jasper because he was already injured. It wasn't cool that Josh struck him on the head. That's cheating! Seeing two naked males fight in front of my home was not something I would ever conjure up. But here I am. Jasper stood tall like a warrior. His strong muscles
Jasper I couldn't control myself. The image of Josh and Gwen kissing kept replaying in my head. Staying in my room was boring. I came down to watch TV but watching a movie didn't do it for me.I was restless. The first knock on the door alerted me. I didn't wait for the second one. I knew she was here. Only a girl would knock that softly. While I accused her of enjoying Josh's kiss, I spoke slowly despite being furious, not wanting to wake the whole household. My parents were already asleep. My reaction gets Gwen infuriated. She's beautiful even while mad. Her anger revealed this mysterious and feisty side of her. My wolf loved it. I have never seen her get so tensed, angry, and blab so much in one go. I stared at her luscious lips. Why haven't I noticed Gwen all these years? I felt stupid for joining the other kids to pick on her while growing up. I called her names. We disregarded her when it came to any of the games we played as kids. She kept on venting her anger on me. She
Gwen"Was wondering what was keeping you late?" I heard my mother speak from the living room. "Hi, Mother," I muttered. "You came back alone? Didn't Jasper escort you home?" A little frown forms on her face. "Uhh. He wasn't feeling too great," I said. "He offered but I told him not to worry."Liar. Why do you keep doing this? You are covering up for him. Even for this! When will you ever learn Gwen? "Oh. I was wondering why he would let you come back all by yourself on such a cold night." "It's okay. He did offer but I told him to rest." I quickly went up the stairs to avoid any other questions. "Good night." "Good night sweetheart."Considering that I began to crush on Jasper since I was thirteen. Being close to him was a wish come true but toying with me like he did not too long ago was what I wasn't going to allow him to do to me again. I hope I've the strength to continue to resist him as I did today. I thought of something he said when we were about to sign the agreement,
Jasper The blaring sound made everyone in our class halt for a moment. The males knew what it meant. As a male in any of the four colonies, it was expected that you were a natural-born warrior. For a male werewolf, there was no room for weakness. A female werewolf may be weak because she has her mate to protect her. We understood this was a warning sound, the first of its kind since we came into this school. It meant there was an enemy or threat within the territory. Everyone began to murmur about the possible reasons the warning alarm would go off, but they all stopped when Mrs Carter broadcast an announcement over the microphone. As I was escorting Gwen yesterday, the scent I picked was of one feral. It was on my way home to inform my father that I picked another scent, then another. There were three. One feral was bad enough. But three? That called for a disaster. After I alerted my father. We agreed we weren't going to unnecessarily panic anyone. So he called the other three
GwenThe tension in the atmosphere was high. His friends didn't want him to take me home first. The way they spoke and how they reacted to Jasper confirmed it. "Why don't we go to the meeting from here?" Reginald said. "We're already late. She can wait in the car." I could sense the anger in Reginald's voice. He wasn't happy that I was here and I was about to distort their plan. Dorian said, "I think Regy is right. This is an emergency. We need to know how to handle this current situation about the ferals soon."On hearing ferals, my heart beat fast. Was that why everyone was panicking? This was serious. Jasper gave me a side look, he scratched his chin. I didn't face him. I understood he was having a hard time thinking about what to do, either to drop me home first or go for their meeting. Eddy tapped Jasper. "You have nothing to worry about. I think it's better if we go to the meeting," he leaned closer. "By the way, as I'll not be attending with you guys since I'm not a soon-to
Jasper"The curfew is going to last for a week. Whatever we have to do, needs to be done immediately," Alpha Howl Nightshade of the Golden Gate Guardians said. His deep voice echoed in the room. "Let's get our lives back to normal as soon as possible." "We need to get rid of them before they hurt our family and friends." Father blurted. This was a meeting of Alphas and the wolf warriors of each pack colony. The wolf warriors were soldiers who protected their respective packs and colonies. "They've been creating havoc for a while in the south of here. Reports have come in from other packs requesting help as their packs are being attacked," The head of the warriors, Sid said. "But the ferals are said to be very powerful and in large numbers so it's difficult to contain them." There were murmurs. "I also heard that's why the Mavericks came back here after two years," Sid added. "Who are the Mavericks?" Alpha Larry Crosswell of the Ember Twilight pack asked. "The family whose daugh
