Tall Dark Stranger

Tall Dark Stranger-Chapter Six

I know, I know.... Its been ages since I last updated and I´m sorry. School is heel on earth and I have grades to keep up and tests to make, so I´ll try and update once a week from now on. Hope it works out..... Anyways, here´s the new chapter.....

 

Damn I missed Cy.

It had been almost two months since the Gathering, and although things back home had pretty much returned to normal I wasn´t. Hadn´t. Whatever. Waking up next to Cy the next morning in the hotel had been kinda weird, specially considering the fact that I knew he was a werewolf and he didn't know I wasn´t one. Yet.

Leaving had been pretty hard for me, specially since I was kind of jelous of Amalia. She seemed so happy, it was nearly disgusting. But hey, that was what the whole mate thing was about, right? Finding your other half, the one that completed you?  Anyways, we had to leave. Soon. Declan was coming with us, and his family would come after some time to meet the whole family-in-law and all that stuff.

And I had to say goodbye to Cy. He had been very comprehensive, mostly because he had a life too and he wasn´t about to put everything on hold just because of me. And I got that. Hey, I wouldn't have dropped everything just to be with him either. That much I knew for sure. I did however really like him, and being apart had given me some perspective.

Cy had been a complete stranger to me when I first met him. An incredibly hot and sexy one, but a stranger nevertheless. And he had helped me out after nearly being raped.I had spent more time with him than I had with anyone else in a long long time, sharing things that I hadn't told anyone else. Trusting him. And why? For fuck´s sake, I didn´t even know his last name! And that part was bugging me. I had been someone else. Not entirely, but still. I wasn´t 21 like I told him I was. I wasn´t a human on a business trip to NY. I wasn't that confident and/or sexy in reality. Well, sometimes, but never in the way he thought I was.......

Then why did it bug me so much that he wasn´t here with me? Why did the thought of him having a girlfriend/wife/fiancee somewhere else make me wanna cry? Because I cared. A lot. I had grown fond of him in a way I hand´t thought possible with someone you only knew for 4 days. Four freaking days! And yet here I was, feeling sorry for myself and checking my phone at least 5 times a day to see if he had texted me. God what a mess.

And I had turned. I was now a full fledged werewolf. The change had been completed no more than a week ago, and I was very happy about it. Finally a was a true werewolf, a real member of the pack. My wolf was a dark gray, which turned lighter at the stomach, where it was almost white. She was now very prominent in my mind, a constant buzz in the back of my head. She was strong willed and driven, and we were a perfect match. She understood me perfectly, and knew exactly how I felt. Although that was probably because she was in my mind.....

I felt relatively comfortable hanging out with Amalia and Declan. It used to be Amalia and me, but now she had Declan and all of the sudden I was feeling like a third wheel while they were all kisses and hugs and smiles. Just amazing.

But I had gotten over myself and realized that even although things were going to be different between me and Amalia from now on, If I wanted to stay friends with her I was just going to have to accept Declan´s company and move on. Get over it.

And Cy did text. About 5 days after we returned home I had gotten a text. I had been in the clouds, happy that he hadn't forgotten me yet and moved on to some blond bimbo. Or redhead. Anyways.... the text said that he was thinking of me and he wished I was there to distract him from his o so boring business meetings.

I had been jumping up and down. Littelrally. I still have the bumpin the back of my head to prove that starting to jump inside your kitchen is indeed a dangerous activity.
