[ 16 ]

Kyle sat on the dining chair as I prepared a sandwich for him. He stayed silent after the call from my dads but he still looked rather shy. I told him they're most probably on the way now so we should be prepared.

"Is it okay to be here? I mean... You said they're coming so won't it be weird if they found us here? Not that we're doing anything wrong but... Well, you're a girl and I'm a boy and... Sheesh. What the fuck am I saying?" he whispered the last part, obviously embarassed.

I almost laughed at him for everything he said. He's so adorable. Although I doubt it if he would like to be called adorable.

"Nah. It'll be fine. They would want to meet you anyway. But... that is... if you want to. I mean, I wouldn't want to appear forceful. I can tell them you don't want to meet them yet."

I grew anxious after I realized that it's a little too soon for him to meet my dads. He might not be ready yet.

Kyle stayed silent for a couple of minutes amd my anxiousness grew even more. Is he mad? Oh no, does he hate me now?

I was about to tell him I'd keep my parents from coming here when he opened his mouth.

"It's fine. They are your parents and I'm your mate so if I want to be with you I should tell them properly," he said with a face full of conviction and my heart just expanded from his words. "And thank them, too. I mean, you wouldn't be here if it weren't for them, right? Then I wouldn't have met you." His voice grew weaker and his face went red because of his words.

I tried to bite my lip to stop the grin that was bound to split my face in two but I guess I couldn't because my cheeks felt like ripping from the smile I just sported.

He was perfect.

I finished the sandwich I was making and made my way to him. He smiled and said thanks before biting into it. Damn, even the way he eats is perfect.

The front door slammed open and I saw Kyle tensed just as Rhax came in whistling while playing with his car keys. Kyle turned around to look and a wave of relief passed through his features when he saw my friend.

"I thought it was your parents," he said with a sigh. "I guess I still couldn't help but be nervous."

I gave him a smile and held his hand. "It will be fine. They won't be here for another half an hour so relax, okay?"

"Your dads are coming?" Rhax asked as he helped himself with a drink from the fridge. This guy feels too comfortable in other people's houses.

"Yeah. They decided to when they heard Kyle talk." I looked at my mate and he was staring anxiously at Rhax. Rhax noticed this and he put his drink down.

"Relax, dude. Not gonna attack you. I'd be dead before I even lay a finger on you," he told Kyle and glanced at me. Damn straight, you will.

"No. I'm not scared. I just can't help but picture you as a... wolf and change into a human infront of my eyes. It's quite disturbing if I were to be honest," he answered in a small voice.

"Oh. That's okay. You'll get over it," Rhax shrugged and began to chug down his drink.

"Right. I hope so. Wouldn't want to picture you naked everytime I see you," Kyle mumbed and I laughed out loud as Rhax spat his drink all over the kitchen counter.

"Dude!"

"Oh, you heard that? Well, it's true. Having Reign shift in front of me would have done the trick of showing me what you really are but you? Really? Like I would want to see that," he countered.

My stomach hurt from laughing at his response. Rhax looked pretty dumbfounded. Oh, he is the only one I know who can mock a werewolf carelessly.

"Your mate is a bully," Rhax complained to me.

"Oh, stop being a pussy," I managed to say in between my laughter.

"Whatever," Rhax rolled his eyes at me. "Anyway... we have to talk," he said through the mindlink.

"What is it?" I asked. He suddenly turned serious so I know it's important.

"It's about that wolf. What do we do about it?"

"Right. I almost forgot about that."

I looked at Kyle as he took the last bite of his sandwich. Rhax was talking about the girl whose wolf completely took control of her. It was horrifying to see that actually happen up close. This happens when a werewolf experiences extreme grief like losing his/her mate and others. It was a story well told in every pack but it is rarely witnessed. Those who lost control to their wolves become wolves completely and they lose consciousness as a human. They begin to act as an animal. They're dangerous especially to humans so we have to immediately handle them.

"What?" said Kyle, looking at Rhax. He was probably asking why Rhax ended his sentence abruptly.

"We'll talk about it when my dads get here," I told Rhax when he glanced at me.

"Nothing," Rhax answered Kyle. He coughed and said, "You're filthy. I'll let you borrow some of my clothes before Reign's dads get here. C'mon, follow me." He led the way upstairs without looking back.

Kyle immediately looked at his clothes and bit his lower lip. "He's right. I better change." He carried the plate and glass he used to the sink and, "I should look presentable in front of your parents. Thanks for the meal." He winked and smirked at me while backing away.

Shit! He's freaking gorgeous.
