My defiant love

Chapter 7

Quinn POV:

"I really wish I was there, I would have sold my whole closet just to watch their faces" Mel laughed as she leaned on Alex shoulder, the ice cream on her spoon looking ready for its fall on the floor if she didn't eat it in the next 10 seconds.

I picked up my spoonful ice cream, "that says a lot when it comes from someone who gets spoiled with a whole runway closet by her boyfriend" I licked the ice off and pointed my spoon at her.

She stuck her tongue out at me while Alex chuckled "once you find your mate he is gonna spoil you too, because you would be the most precious thing in his life" he tugged a hair behind Mels ear and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

I threw my spoon in the cup, "can you guys stop being so sweet your ruining my ice cream" I crossed my arms.

"Never" Alex smirked before he jump-attacked Mel with kisses causing them to fall out of the seat on the floor.

After a minute they came back up and thank goodness Mel changed the subject after a minute of awkward silence, "so what will happen with the rogues and the attack?."

"I don't know, luckily there hasn't been any more attacks since the birthday party." I said in a flat tone while picking at my ice cream container. "Me neither. People are so fucking scared all the time because there has been more attacks recently, our warriors are really lacking so every rogue that wants can come and go, and attack as they please" she murmured the last part.

Alex straightened and moved a little away from her hold "not all rogues are bad."

Of course not all rogues are vicious. It's something we have learned about through our years and something that is very serious to Alex since he had a first experience about it.

When Alex was 9 his whole pack was attacked by rogues, there where too many attackers that it all ended in a big bloodshed with a lot of ruined and burnt down buildings and their Alpha and Luna who died on the battlefield.

Now, you may wonder why the hell the werewolf community didn't do something and why he is in a complete different pack now, simple, our werewolf king did nada AKA squat shit.

Our werewolf king is nothing more than an arrogant bastard that thinks of nothing but himself and power, he's been on the throne for a long time longer than I have lived, and I can't remember a time where he has done something that actually helped our society.

But for me and many others he is nothing but an arrogant psychopath, he is even so arrogant that when he found his mate he rejected her and said: "I don't wanna be tied down with a mate and family when helping the werewolf society is what gives me the most joy in the whole world." Lame excuse for saying he wanna party and bang hoes all night.

So Alex and those who survived from the attack was forced to go rogue. When Alex was 12 he and some others came across our pack and our Alpha -being his kind self- offered them to join the pack after hearing about their story, so ever since he has been a loyal pack member.

And a year ago at 21 he met Mel the sun moon and stars of his life.

The reason that statement means so much to him is because he had a friend who also was rogue and she was the most kindest thing on earth, but she got killed when her family trespassed a territory.

"I didn't mean it like that" she turned to Alex and grabbed his hand "of course they're not" she hugged him, "I'm sorry baby" she kissed his cheek.

"Ugh, wait til your home to do the nasties" I groaned as I ate another spoon of Cookie dough. "Oh we will" Alex said before he kissed Melodys nose.

We spent another hour at the mall, them acting like the lovey dovey couple the are, and me ignoring them except to bicker sometimes while my wolf was sad and grumpy over our mate.

Melody and Alex were over by the shelves, looking at a necklace Mel had been looking at while I walked around some dresses, not really being interested.

I picked my phone to look at the clock, 16:24. I walked over to Mel and Alex, "I gotta go, it's almost time for my date with Luca" I informed while I pointed to the glass doors we came from.

"Who's Luca?" Alex growled while wrapping his arms around Mels waist. She chuckled "don't worry, it's a vampire me and Quinn met on a walk in the park." He just kept growling and buried his face in her neck, she turned around and wrapped her hands around his neck, "I already have the perfect date" she kissed his lips.

"I have to go, bye" I waved goodbye as I walked away. "You already have a mate so don't have too much fun " Mel shouted after me, I stoped and turned around, "I don't see him coming and claiming me" and walked out.

————————————————————————
I exhaled a heavy breath that blew my hair out of my eyes, I have been standing in front of my closet for 25 minutes, and let's just say my floor is really lucky if there is one spot where my clothes hasn't been thrown.

And my lamp has got a new look from the different fabrics.

I settled on a white knee-length dress with small blue flowers, white high heels and a necklace.

————————————————————————
I stood at our meeting spot where I have been waiting for 5 minutes.

He's not coming. Fire reported, sounding happy.

You don't know that I responded. Ever since we left Mel and Alex she has been in a mood about the whole thing.

He's gonna blow us off, then you're gonna get sad and walk home alone on the cold streets. Then it's gonna start raining while we walk, and we don't have an umbrella so our hair and dress is gonna get wet. But then something will cover your head from the rain and we look up to see it's our mate, holding his jacket above to shield us from the rain. We stare at each other and get lost in our eyes as we both slowly lean forward, we close our eyes, and our lips meet while colors explode behind our eyes.

I roll my eyes. "Quinn!" Luca came running around the corner, "sorry to keep you waiting, I had some... business to take care off" he said as he looked back at the corner.

"I understand" was my simple reply as we walked into the restaurant. "I didn't know what you liked but I hope this place is good" he said as we sat down at a table, I hummed as I opened the menu.

"I will have the spicy chicken pasta and a Fanta, thank you" I said to the waiter and handed him my menu.

"So Quinn, tell me a little about yourself, what does a beautiful girl like you do in her everyday?" Luca asked. "Hmm, there's not much going on, I'm in the last year of school so I'm starting to look at houses so I can move out soon."

"Sounds like you have big plans for the future. What about a boyfriend or mate, I really don't wanna fight anybody for your attention?" He took a sip of his cola.

I chuckled, "no, there's no boyfriend or anything you have to fight" I tilted my head and studied him "although I do think you have a pretty good chance if you had to fight." I know my wolf hated the idea of looking at another man but he was pretty well build.

"Thank you, it's not as often I train anymore because I have work, but when I do I usually train with my buddy" he said with a grin.

"That's sweet. I train sometimes too, I try to drag my best friend Melody too, but the only way she goes on a treadmill is if her mate Alex or her favorite pizza and chicken wings is on the other side" we both laughed as our waiter came with our food.

We enjoyed our food and drinks while we talked and laughed for the next two hours.

He might not be as good as mate but he seems interesting and like a nice guy to talk to. That was the things I thought about as I got ready for bed.

What if mate never really shows up? I questioned sadly. I may have said those things to Mel and Alex, but I do wanna meet him and experience all that love about a mate bond they keep talking about.

I'm sure he will. He may not show it but I have talked to his wolf, he wants us too.

Don't get your hopes up fire, his wolf may say that but actions speak louder than words. I thought as I starred up at the ceiling.
