Check Mate

Chapter one

Above is the image of how I believe  Spring would look like. I absolutely love the hair and the face but I want your opinions! Enjoy the chapter.

***

His eyes sparkled like emeralds reflecting the sun.

The flattering butterflies tickle my
insides.

I am in love with the idea of you.

Your love is like the fierce wind,
I can't see it

But I can feel it.

- Myriah Young

Sitting up quickly with sweat covering my body my eyes frantically searched around my surroundings. My fingers pinched the soft fabric of my bed making me realize I was fully awake.

My heavy breathing became slower from my once panic attack as I pressed my right hand unto my neck.

Nothing but smooth skin.

Good I thought, sighing. Nothing but another nightmare I kept having. I shivered at the thought of my last dream.

Why was I keep having nightmares about him? Who was this beautiful yet dangerous man? He was a beautiful mystery that had me wanting more but after having this recent nightmare did I really want to see anymore of this dark side of him?

My hand lingered on the spot on my neck that he had bit me. I gave a soft moan from how his lips trailed my jaw and neck remembering how he had nip at my sensitive flesh. I covered my mouth quickly from anymore noise that could escape, embarrassed from my own arousal.

It was just a dream, I reminded myself. But he knew my name and what kind of dream usually has a very hot guy saying your name?

Yup, it was most definitely a dream.

I mentally slapped myself from thinking this guy was hot. He was the reason I had to go to therapy every week. Having nightmares one after another is not normal and especially with the same mysterious man who could shift into a wolf.

I cringed from the thought of his beautiful silvered lined black wolf that always hunted me in my dreams. I could almost feel his dark eyes present on me, remembering his hunger that could only be satisfied by me.

I jumped from my trance when a knock from my front door could be heard from my bedroom. My eyes landed on the red numerical numbers on my alarm clock.

8:35 AM

I scrunched my eyebrows wondering why someone would be hear this early. "If you do not open up, I am going to cause a scene!" I heard the screech of my wonderful friend, Mariah, yell through my door.

I gave off a sigh getting up quickly, grabbing a blanket to wrap around myself from the crisp air. Walking quickly towards my pounding door that consisted a very annoying rhythm, "Why are you here so early?" I asked cutting of her knocking, looking around for any of my unhappy neighbors who hopefully were still asleep.

Once hearing a doorknob start to twist I quickly pulled Mariah's hand into my apartment closing my door quickly from embarrassment. "Told you." Mariah stated.

I looked at her annoyed while I untangled my short hair with my fingers trying to come up with something to say.

"Wait...where is the key I gave you so that you do not have to wake me up?" I asked after realizing I had opened the door for her. She slyly smiled and looked down, as if her feet were now interesting.

I gave her a glare "you did not do what I think you did?" I asked hoping I was wrong. She looked up and nodded her head.

"If it helps, it would be located somewhere in Dark Moon." I gasped.

"You mean you lost my spare key in a bar?!" I yelled while horrible thoughts rammed into my head. "Anyone can just walk in now!"

Mariah just stood there like a lost puppy. I rolled my eyes "I am going to need more therapy before this day is even over ." I mumbled giving her a hug knowing I could not stay mad at her. She was there for me for every little stupid thing I did in my life, it was only fair.

She looked at me confused before smiling, "I knew you could not stay mad, bipolar bïtch."

"Now I have to go buy a whole new set of keys and a lock." I stated as we walked into my bedroom to get ready. I turned around to give her a face but noticed she was not behind me anymore. "Mariah?"

"Imn hmere." I could hear a muffled voice coming from my kitchen. I laughed before pulling a pair of skinny jeans on and a t-shirt that had a Fallout 4 logo printed on it. One of my favorite shirts while looking into my mirror that was against my wall. Grimacing at my dark bags under my eyes, I rummaged for some liquid foundation to cover them up with.

Walking to the bathroom brushing my teeth Mariah came in and started using the toilet infront of me. "Let me at least get out or be warned." I gargled, spitting out my toothpaste from my mouth.

I walked out quickly while putting on my black flats and grabbing my keys that were laying on my dresser. Mariah came out after me as she grabbed my purse off my kitchen table "almost forgot the most important item." she laughed.

I grabbed it from her slanging it around my body as I eyed her up and down noticing what she was wearing. "You are not going out dressed like that." I crossed my arms as if I was her mother. She looked sheepishly down at her outfit "what is wrong with it? All the guys liked it." she patted her black slick dress that barely reached to her thighs.

She sighed as she notice my glare, walking towards my bedroom to change. Not too long as she came out wearing my blue topaz gem shirt and a lacy skirt of mine. "Happy now?" she asked as she fluffed her hair. I nodded with approval.

"Good, lets go." while we both walked out, locking my door as if no one could get in. We walked down the stairs as I looked around for her car stopping on the sidewalk. "Uhh, where is your car?" I asked while my eyes searched for a Ford Focus.

Mariah scratched her head knowing she was thinking "Might still be at the parking lot over at Dark Moon." she replied. "I think this dude dropped me off here. Wait..shit. I might of had sex with him too. He was so fucking hot." she pratically drooled.

"Are you fucking serious?" I asked pissed not because she left our only ride but because she had sex with a stranger. "Did you even use protection?" I asked hopefully.

She was thinking before she looked up and started laughing making me very confused. "I would not go that far, even if I was drunk and he was hëlla hot." she said between laughter. "All that happened was a thank you and he dropped me off. He noticed that I was wasted and asked if he could drive me. And of course I could not say no with his fine äss."

I gave a sigh "one day I will be visiting your skinny äss in a coffin." I said as she laughed. I pulled out my phone and booked a Uber that could take us to a hardware store.

As Mariah started talking about her night  my mind drifted off to forest green eyes and kisses on skin while we both sat down waiting for our Uber.
