Forbidden Taste

Chapter Two

Nala*

As I stomped rather loudly towards the house and enter, Katie comes jumping excitedly towards me from the kitchen with a huge grin from ear to ear.

"Do I even want to ask?" I reply with my own grin while taking of my red coat and placing it on the rack. She laughs and drags me into the living room and we both sink into the sofa. "Robert is taking me away for the weekend!" she squeals and throws her hands in the air. Robert is my sister's fiancé, he is great for her and I am quite happy for them. They don't live together and decided they were going to get married before she moves in with him. I knew she was doing it so I wasn't alone but I just wanted her to be happy. "Sounds great sis" she looks at me with a smile and relaxes back into the sofa "I know, first get away in a year Nala! I'm really looking forward to it; will you be ok on your own?" I could see the hoping her eyes and I couldn't help but giggle. She always was concerned for my well being. 
"Course I'll be fine! I am nineteen if you even remember" I said sarcastically and she play punches my arm.

"Wise arse!"

I get up from the sofa and turn around long enough for her to see me pulling out my tongue at her. I couldn't help but giggle while walking away.

"I'm going out tonight so don't wait up" I call from the kitchen.

Katie mumbles a reply before jogging up the stairs no doubt planning her weekend. If you ever watched friends the TV show, well let's just say shes Monica. A neat freak who plans everything before hand.

After a quick bite of something to eat and a shower, it didn't take me long to get ready for going out with Valerie. I pick out a knee length red lace dress and black high heels. I decide to leave my hair down which was in curls and opted for light makeup. Just before I put on my small leather jacket I hear the car honk loudly several times. Katie pops her head through my door and sign. "Something tells me Valerie is here" she says and I laugh.

"Yes that will be her, see you in the morning" I call while hurriedly moving down the stairs towards the door.

Running from the house I get into her small yellow sports car and her smile welcomes me.

"You ready?"

"Yes let's go!" I laugh as she turns on her country music. A girl like Valerie should not like county music but that's what I love about her. She's wild and yet enjoys the smooth music and love songs.

"Right well there's a party at my sisters, mates house and she invited us so we will just head there and get pissed before you know it" Valerie smirks and looks into the mirror to make sure her make-up was ok... I don't know why she bothers she always looks Gorgeous. Her red hair braided back and her blue eyes sparkling with life. She wore light make up with red lipstick and came out with a blue strapless dress and about five inch heels as if five foot seven was petite.

When we reached the house the first thing I noticed was how big and open it was, I have only visited a few times but I was still amazed how the house was built. A part Victorian and part modern which is beautifully made inside. It had three floors and lovely large rooms that completed it. The back garden was filled with flowers and lights that made the whole place magical. Down at the bottom was a huge swimming pool that was already filled with people. It was safe to say they are beyond rich.

"Sweetie I have to find my sister and mingle, will you be alright for a few minutes?" she asks and I couldn't help but laugh as I know how long her minutes were.

"go ahead ill catch up later" I say and walked back into the living area that was hammering loud music and plenty of people dancing, drinking and well... making out. The place already looked as if the party had happen the night earlier. It smelled like hard liquor and sweat.

Half an hour later after I was still waiting for Valerie I helped myself to alcohol and it was safe to say I drank a lot and was well over tipsy.

With my head spinning I head outside for some fresh air, which was the best choice to make as I collapse onto the grass and inhales deeply. The stars looking down on me with disapproval. The wind was starting to pick up while the trees swayed together. I start to feel better so I start to sit up.

The next second I heard a growl and looked up to see his dark blue eyes glaring at me. It was him... I couldn't help but moan at my thoughts as I toke him in with my hungry eyes. I must have been obvious as he raised his eyebrows slightly looking a little amused after a minute.

"Are you alright?" He says huskily and I bite my lip so I don't moan again as I hear his voice he sniffs the air and grins as if he can smell my excitement.

"Yes I am" I say standing up to look more dominant but with his size I don't think it worked even a little bit. He stepped near me, close enough to smell him which made me dizzy again. "Your cold" he growls quietly and puts me in his arms, I couldn't fight him and to be fair didn't want too. I inhaled him as he inhaled me and shivered as he whispered something to quite to hear... then something clicked. He was a werewolf, I didn't know how I could tell. It was more of a feeling. I tried to step out of his arms but he only tightened them. "Don't do that" he nuzzled my neck and I stop. "You're a...a werewolf" I say and he smiles a little.

"Nala, im more than that... I'm an Alpha" he steps back slightly to see my reaction but all I can do is stare at him wide eyed.

"Shit" I breathe out and he laughs. I knew little about werewolf's but I knew when a werewolf was to mate they were meant for each other... destined. To complete mating it was said that biting each other as a blood exchange was the only way to create a blood bond and it was impossible to remove once done. Only werewolves had one mate during their lives and last time I heard werewolf's population was a little over three thousand.

"Don't worry Nala" he says slowly as he stares into my eyes.

"I don't even know your name...?" I say and he again smiles.

"Ezra"

I tell him I have to leave and heads back into the party before he could grab me again. Valerie was in the corner making out with some hot guy and when she notices my facial expression, walks straight to me.

"What's up?"

"A werewolf... I can't seem to be myself around him" I stutter and run my hands thought my hair. Valerie looks shocked.

"Oh god, that can't be good" she says rather loudly which turns heads. I turn around to see if he was near but I couldn't see him.

"What is he doing here!"

"I don't really know, but he may know my sister"

"I can't control my emotions when he's around.." I whispered more to myself but she heard.
"Well I sure haven't seen you like this before... just be careful Nala " she says and looks around the room to see if she can spot him.

"Did I mention he's an alpha?" I say and her eyes shot up to look at me with a shocked expression

"I think he's gone, god I'm screwed!"
She nods a little.
