Alexia Eden(15)

Slowly I stroll towards her and see her huddled up with her head hidden behind her fallen hair and arms holding her knees tight, I could see her shaking – she was petrified.

I needed to smell her so I slowly put my snout near her shoulder and smelt her hair, so sweet like berries. She tensed when I took a deep breath in and I slowly withdrew from her. I licked her arm and sat directly in front of her looking down at her. She slowly lifted her head and wiped the hair put out of her face, I was welcomed by the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, she’s beautiful… my wolf, Sebastian, says to me in awe.

I could see she wanted to touch me but was hesitant, she lifted her hand and my wolf took control of our body pushing my head towards her hand to tell her it’s okay, I wouldn't hurt her. She stroked my face and the top of my head between my ears. Slowly she lifted herself off the ground to take a better look at me, she stroked my back then came around and looked into my eyes, her face was perfect, her skin looked so soft ….I need to touch her.

I licked her cheek, so damn soft and tastes so sweet, I tell my wolf within.

She giggles then says, “You’re quite the cutie aren’t you?”

Damn this girl can make me melt even by saying something that easily belittles my manhood. I wouldn’t have gone for cutie, but I suppose it’s better than nothing. I tell Sebastien. Damn straight. He replies from within me, this human is so beautiful, so perfect …he almost purrs still in awe of this amazing creature before us.

Sebastien takes over once again making a complete fool outta me by acting like one of those pathetic house dogs looking for attention, he rolls on the floor and makes stupid sounds with his tongue hanging out.

Arg! Sebastian what are you doing? You making me look like a tool, get up and stop acting stupid! I order my wolf.

She is still scared of us, I like her and I don’t want her to be afraid and this is the only way that might change that! Sebastian replies still make weird dog noises.

Then the girl unexpectedly laughs and rubs my chest, hmmm …good idea.

I walk the girl back toward the trailer park and watch as she gets inside safely, I stay hidden in the bushes.

I go back to the pack house just up the hill from the trailer park.

There’s a couple of cabins on the large property, I stay on the one side of the main house with my best friends; Jax, Ronny, Rachel and Mark (whom are mates). Our soon to be Alpha found out who his mate was a couple years ago, it was his best friend Ronny. The problem was that Ronny is gay and extremely in love with her long-time girlfriend Chloe and also, Jax and Ronny are as close as brother and sister.

It is very rare for our wolves not to act on instinct once they find their mate but Ronny’s wolf, Star and Jax’s wolf Malek have fortunately come to terms that they simply are not meant to be together. Of course the two still have that strong connection that mates have but nothing intimate since they aren’t going to mate or mark each other, and their wolves support their decision entirely. Star has fallen in love with Chloe since she accepted Ronny when the secret came out and well Malek being a part of Jax is having too much fun being single.

The elders of our pack wouldn’t agree with the way the two have dealt with the fact that they are mates, so they haven’t told anyone about it. The only reason I know is because I’m going to be Beta of the pack and Jax is like my brother, so he and Ronny informed me about the situation. I support them and love them just the same, if not more for making such a tough decision.

After I change and shower I go see what everyone’s up to, thinking to myself about the beautiful girl I just met and wondering what her name is. I pass Ronny on the couch chatting with Chloe and they ask why I’m smiling, I didn’t even realize I was but I tell them about the girl I met and we chat about her until they go to bed.

I need to see her again.

I’ve gone to the fountain everyday just in case I catch her there, I’ve met up with her a couple times now and we sit on the rock and she tells me stories about her parents and all the happy memories she has of them all together. When she tells me that her dad died, I can see how emotional it is for her to say the words out loud without crying. I can’t believe how extremely brave this girl is, she also tells me about her parents relationship before her father died and how much her mom misses her father. She smiles when she talks about how they were together.

I want to have that… with her.

As soon as Lexi bumped into me in the school hallway I knew I’d fallen for her, I saw the way she looked at me and I was so nervous that she would recognize my eyes. My wolf liked the fact that I made her blush by just being in her company and the way she looked at me gave me shivers. The good kind of shivers.
