You Make Me Itch

Chapter 5

Chapter 5

~Blaze~ 

My hand was tingling as I held her small, delicate hand in mine. When she told me she felt like she knew me I felt like howling, my mate felt our connection and I knew it wouldn't be long until she would completely be mine. 

But my silent rejoice was quickly interrupted when another waitress guided us to our seats. When i started to pull my hand away I was surprised to feel her tug on it, not letting it go and setting them across the table. I felt a bright smile light up my face, getting the feeling she didn't want to let go. 

"So why did we come back to the pub?" Artemis questions a sexy smirk on her face. "Well ... I ...uh... didn't really know where else to go." I admit in defeat, bowing down my head down in embarrassment, but quickly lift it up when I hear an unlady-like snort and tinkling laughter. I stare straight into her amazing gold eyes in awe as she blushes. 

"Hey, you have a beautiful laugh even that snort." I whisper sincerely. When she started blushing even more I changed the subject not wanting her to feel uncomfortable at all in my presence. 

"Where do you go to school?" My Beautiful Artemis gets excited as she explains that she's in her last year of high school and plans to become a veterinarian. Overjoyed with her willingness to open up to me I almost missed what she was saying. 

"- although I absolutely adore animals, I can't stand werewolves. What's your take on them?" she asks. I freeze as my heart beats wildly in my heart, panicking, I didn't know how to respond. I remember the first night I met her she mentioned something about her dislike towards wolves and later discussed with Sam and Clay that topic but I wouldn't take any of it, I was in denial I couldn't accept the fact that my mate may not want me for who I really am. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place because if I told her she may never want to see me again or if I don't tell her I may never fully mate with her and would have to lie to her all the time. I couldn't help but be selfish, Artemis was my mate and my wolf wanted to be close to her, but more importantly I wanted to be close to her. 

I was strong, but not strong enough to resist this magnificent woman in front of me and even if I knew deep down in my heart if she found out the truth she may never want to speak to me again, I had to stay by her side as long as I could. With my mind made up I answer; 

"No, I can't stand those mutts either." I cringe mentally, I was dissing myself and all of my friends but I was utterly devoted to this beautiful creature and would die for her if it came down to it. 

Conversation after that came easily as I learned more about Artemis and her life. She had two very protective best friends, Kiera and Mia, who were almost always by her side and new all of her secrets. She loved all animals but had a special spot in her heart for dogs. At that point I laughed silently. But when I brought up her parents she seemed to stiffen and immediately shied away from that topic. I was a little worried but didn't want to pry and left it alone, for now. When she finished talking about her beloved, deceased grandparents, she asked me about my life. I divulged most of my life story, about how I had rich parents who were well known in the high society, about my little brother Clay and about how our parents sent us to live with our uncle because they had had enough of us and moved us here. But when in fact my parents were very close friends with the President who's also a wolf. The second part was true though, our parents were horrible people and always said me and my brother were mistakes. 

I felt really guilty about not telling my actual story and hoped it didn't show on my face. I also had the strongest urge to kiss her and hoped I would get a chance to later tonight. Because I knew if I didn't I would go crazy, my wolf was already going crazy wanting me to just take her and make love to her but I know that it wasn't possible yet, that I had to be patient and wait for this beautiful, sexy, charming, caring tease of a women to fall in love with me. And I can only hope it will be soon because I was already painfully in love with her.

A/N: Hey guys sorry for not uploading, I'm not going to lie I just haven't felt like writing for a while. And I was thinking maybe I could get 10 votes for the next chapter? Or even like 5 comments? 

Also the song on the side is Oh Darling by Plug In Stereo. I thought it went really well with this chapter.
