The Bad Boy And The Nerd He Cant Resist

Uneasiness

 Jeremiah offered me a water bottle but I shook my head “You can’t go all hydrophobic on me now just a couple sips, yeah?”  I gingerly took the bottle from his giant hands “I wouldn’t take you for a Luna at first glance”    his eyes were sincere enough he meant nothing malicious it was just a simple common observation “You’re a tiny one I’d be afraid you would break”

“I'm not fragile”

“Obviously not you survived quite an event not even the strongest Alpha could you’re something different, beautiful”

“Jeremiah, what are you?” 

“ I’m a wolf too I just prefer not to shift unless need be”

“How old are you?”

“Seventeen”

“Why are you out in the middle of nowhere without a Pack? Where’s your family?”

“All slaughtered” he replied dismissively   grabbing a handful of twigs and began the process  setting a fire

“I apologize for my inquiries”

“Nah, come on beautiful what normal person doesn’t ask someone they just met about their   family?”  He smiled “I’d be insulted if you didn’t, so I know where you’re from, who you belong to but I still have no clue who you are”

“I’m not really too special, I'm just a nerd who wound up with a Prince”

“There’s got to be more to you than that”
 
“Well I'm eighteen my best friend is a human, my dad died when I was pretty young, I'm used to being alone”

“ You shouldn’t be , I like you pretty girl I'm going to make sure you’re never alone again” My wolf growled at him and I didn’t quite understand while I felt  a sort of  kinder ship with the  boy,  my wolf was alert at his presence always   watching his every movement analyzing his every word

I simply chopped it up to her  having a fit over it not being Xander  “ Well if you can get me back to my Pack I’d be  very thankful I'm sure Xander would give you anything you wanted”

“He won’t owe me a thing  marvelous  Abigail I just want you safe where you belong , we’ll stay here for the night and be on our way in the morning”


I smile and cozy up next to the fire exhaling deeply. A shiver ran up my spine ‘why are you so comfortable around him?’   My wolf snapped ‘he could kill us in our sleep, I don’t trust him Abigail something’s just off about that little boy’

he’s the only way back to Xander I don’t know where we are ‘fine only until we get back to the house and after that we’re cutting all ties with him’   fine   we have quite a while until we start trekking ‘  you sleep Abigail I'm going to watch him I don’t think we should let our guard with him for even a second’  Estelle I don’t understand  you’re reluctance  but fine I guess I won’t be able to shift anytime soon since  you won’t be  getting  enough sleep ‘would you rather  die in your sleep by  a mental  patient  or not be able to shift,  for what a couple hours ? Take your pick little Abi’ I'll go to sleep Estelle, talk to you ion the morning  ‘if we make it to see daylight’

I turn on my side and let dreamland take me  I'm not sure if  Estelle was right    but anything that would make Estelle that uneasy    wasn’t something too friendly I guess I have to sleep with one eye  open
