My Mateless Mate...

6. Wish Me Luck

Thank you for all the support I've been receiving! I love each and every one of you little munchkins! Now onto the story (Oh and if you ever have any suggestions about the story TELL ME!! I want your opinions!)

Cole's POV

I slammed my fist down onto the nearest desk with an earsplitting bang "Will! You better shut the hell up or I swear I will kill you!" I yelled in a hoarse voice that I barely recognized.

"Whoa dude chill! What did I do?"

I could hear the teacher yelling at me in the background as I began to contemplate whether I should knock my best friend out or just break every last bone in his body. I was furious! But then out of nowhere I felt a delicate, comforting touch pace over my arm like silk sheets running over bare legs. Tingles ran up and down my body furiously and I could feel myself lean into her touch, she acted like medicine to me; the way she could calm me down with just the gentlest of touches. "Please relax" she whispered in a voice only fit for an angel and I immediately felt my rigid body begin to ease.

I had almost forgotten why I was mad until I looked up to see a very frightened Will standing merely a foot away from me. "I'm sorry man" I said in a strained voice as I slowly walked away from him.

Kate's POV

'Ugh why did I have to touch him?' I thought to myself 'My body is still reacting to the little contact we made with each other. I'm practically writhing in my skin but I'm sure he's perfectly fine right now! He's probably thinking about what closet he'll have sex in with that girl, Rylie, next period. I just don't understand why he doesn't like me' I asked these questions to myself while making my way back to my desk, I couldn't even look at Cole anymore because now that I knew how strong our bond really was, it made it hurt more.

Cole's POV

I kept looking at her, hoping to catch her eye but she wouldn't look my way. I could see her squirming in her seat and I knew she felt the same way I did. 'Can we go sit with her? I want her to touch us again" my wolf purred. He hasn't stopped purring since the second she made contact with us and it's getting annoying as hell. Especially considering the fact that I'm trying to forget about how good it felt to have her small hands stroke my skin and have her soft, minty breath skim across my neck in a way that made goosebumps form all over my body... 'I have got to quit thinking like this!'

After School

Cole's POV

"Baby, will you please come over. I need someone to keep me company while my parents are away" Rylie hinted, trying to be nonchalant but failing miserably.

"Ry, I can't. I told you I have some stuff to do"

"Well can't you just do stuff with me?" God she's starting to get annoying "Please, Cole! I'll do whatever you want me to" she stated while running a finger down my chest and stopping right above my jean's zipper. Even though her touch didn't do anything for me anymore, I decided I needed to let off some steam and so I agreed to go home with her. We arrived at her large, red, brick house at about 4:15 and right as we walked through the front door I was pushed up against a hard wall by the petite little figure in front of me. As Rylie kissed up my jawline she spoke of how I haven't been around enough and how she's had to 'pleasure' herself without any help. I could tell she was happy with the fact that my hard on was apparent through my jeans but the thought of her finishing me off actually made a queasy feeling appear in the pit of my stomach. 'You can't feel her' my wolf said.

'What?' I asked

'You can't feel our mate. Your body is reacting this way because we are not being touched by Kate but by another wolf.'

'What? How does my body even know the difference?'

'I don't know. It's just one of the wonders of having a fate given lover; you will always need to only feel each other.'

Having this unsettling feeling in my stomach just made me want to go home. I really needed to start thinking about what the hell I was doing.

"I have to go" I blurted out, as Rylie got down on her knees for me.

"What?"

"I have to go" I spoke again but slower as if trying to talk to a confused child.

"Haha, that's not funny. Now let me get back to my job" she winked and continued to release my hard on from the grip of my jeans but I stopped her.

"No. Stop, you are just embarrassing yourself" I whispered while walking out the front door.

While making my way to the car I could hear Rylie throwing a fit inside her house. 'Damn that girl is loud' I noted and then as if by instinct I got into my big escalade and drove off to find the last person I ever thought I would go to for advice, my mother.

-------------------------------

"Mom, I just really need to talk to you"

"Well okay sweetie, what's going on?"

"I just...I...um...I think-"

"He found his mate" my sister abruptly interrupted, coming out of nowhere.

"How do you know that?" I asked

"Well your mate, Kate, and I had a very long conversation in the bathroom earlier and"

"The bathroom?"

"Shh! don't interrupt me, and yes, the bathroom. Anyways, she's such a sweetheart! She's one of the only wolves I've ever met that hasn't judged me for being 'an accident'" she said while looking towards our mom

"Baby, don't ever say you're an accident! You are a gift and I love you so much more than you will ever know." my mother responded.

"Thank you mom, I love you too"

"Okay!" I yelled "Can we please get back to my mate."

"Oh yes! Well we were in the bathroom talking for like a whole class period and the reason I knew she was your mate was because I felt like she was my sister. I've never had such a strong connection with another wolf besides you and mom. Cole, she is so perfect for you. Accepting her has got to be the best decision you've ever made."

"That's the problem. I haven't exactly accepted her yet"

"What! Why not?"

"Because I don't want her, well, I didn't want her. What the hell am I gonna do? Now she probably hates me because I've been nothing but an uncaring asshole to her." I muttered, while slumping my head towards the ground. I was ashamed that I had done such things to the only person who was truly mine and I needed to fix it.

"You need to go to her" whispered my sister "I think if you just talk to her maybe she could learn to forgive you"

"But what if she doesn't want to be with me anymore?" I whimpered; closer to the verge of crying than I had ever been before. The thought of her denial left an incurable ache in my chest.

After a few minutes of thinking things over I finally said "I'll go to her. But if doing this screw's me over and I lose my mate forever I'm blaming both of you. No pressure, just know that what you told me to do could easily determine whether I live a lifetime of happiness or not"

"Hey! We didn't tell you to do anything" they yelled to me as I walked out the front door and hopped into my car.

"Alright, well let's hope for the best"
