Surrender -Under Re-Write

5

I woke up the next morning to a text from an unknown number.

Unknown: I put your number in my phone so I wouldn't have to climb through your window anymore.
Unknown: unless you still want me to then I'm more than willing to oblige ;)

Me: you're such a perv

Perv: only for you princess

Me: I told you not to call me that.

Perv: sorry baby ;)

I couldn't help but blush at the term of endearment. I didn't think I'd like to be called baby but something about his voice and the way he says it makes my brain fuzzy.

I look through the text and chuckle at the name change. He definitely won't like it but teasing him is kinda fun.

Perv: when can I see you again?

I set my phone down and stare up at my ceiling. Making plans to see him would be difficult. I don't go out much and if I do it's usually with Maya.

The thought of Maya brought on a whole new wave of guilt. She opened up a bit to me last night in her drunken state. She pretended to be un-phased by what happened with Danny but she was actually hurting. I could tell by the way she spoke that she had already started to fall for him in just a short month.

Me: I don't know

I sent that last response early this morning and I haven't heard from him since. I knew he was upset, I could feel it somewhere inside me. Of course this made me feel even more guilty and stuck. I can't be with my mate because it would hurt my sister, but not being with him was hurting him too.

"Why do you look all sulky." My brother Tyler's voice pulls me from my racing thoughts.

"I'm not sulky. What are you doing here?" I ask hoping it'll pull him off the subject of the fact that yeah, I was actually in a sulky mood.

"Just got through a meeting with the leaders." He says shrugging and plopping down on my bed.

I stayed seated on my desk chair but turn to face him. They just got back this afternoon from the emergency meeting in Colorado. And now he's saying he just got done with another?

"What's with all the meetings? What's been going on?" I ask quietly.

Tyler lifts his body off the bed and pears down the hall to check if anyone was coming or possibly listening in.

"You can't tell anyone" he says quietly.

I nod in understanding and he shuffles closer to the edge of the bed.

"Apparently there was some sort of attack in Colorado." He says lowly.

My eyes widen. "Attack?"

"Yeah, at one of the leaders homes."

"Was anyone hurt? Do they know who it was?"

"No. Luckily no one was hurt but the guys got away."

"Well what are they gonna do?"

Tyler sighs and shrugs. "I mean there's not much to do other than question our neighboring packs."

"We're allied with all the US packs. Why would anyone attack?" I question.

"Don't know. We wondered if it was the pack from Coahuila, Mexico because of what happened with Lilith but they have no reason to come for us. I mean we basically freed them from dictatorship why would they attack us you know?" Tyler states.
