The new werewolf in town (Book 1 of the Werewolf Love series)

Chapter 2

Seriously, why the heck do I feel so lonely? Yeah, I don't have any family but I have come to accept that. I hated feeling lonely and wished this feeling would go away. I seemed to be really in my thoughts that I hadn't realized we were standing in front of my truck and I was just looking at the ground with Hayden staring at me. I could tell he was worried about why I was closed off, it's not like I meant to be closed off, it just felt natural. When he asked me why I was here, I felt a little  hurt but mostly I didn't want to talk about it.

"Blayz, are you okay?" Hayden asked.

"Yeah, I was just thinking. Um, I should be going. See you tomorrow,"I told him and quickly got in my truck and left. My apartment was quiet when I entered and I hated the quiet, I always have. My pack was always running in and out of my house and made a lot of noise which seemed to comfort me. I just went to my room and laid down on the bed, staring up at the ceiling to think. Like usual, my thoughts went to the fight and the images came back, they wouldn't go away either. Every time the images came back, they came back stronger and were harder to get rid of. I had to sit up and put my face in my pillow to keep from screaming. I've already had to deal with people rushing to my apartment to see if I was okay and I didn't want that again.

Why did I have to deal with this? I guess the saying, 'life is unfair' is true because it's unfair that I got to live and nobody else did. I really needed to stop thinking but I couldn't. New images flashed through my mind and I couldn't take it anymore, I had to scream. I pushed the pillow to my face harder and screamed, hoping no one could hear. The images slowly faded and I was able to breathe calmly again as I went to take a shower. The shower calmed me down but couldn't get my muscles to relax. I realized I was hungry after I got dressed so I headed to the kitchen to make a sandwich but I haven't had a big appetite for a while now, which didn't bother me.

I really needed to get my homework done but I didn't feel like it, all my energy was drained from thinking earlier. How sad, I get tired just from thinking. I knew I was stressed out  but I didn't know what I could do for that. I hated spas so that was out of the question and running, I just didn't feel like doing that right now. As I laid on my bed, my thoughts drifted to Hayden and I smiled, he seemed to actually care about me. Slowly, my eyes closed and I began to dream. Well, more like have the same nightmare.

Hayden's P.O.V.

What was going on in my beautiful mate's head? She seemed to always be lost in thought, even when I would pass her in the halls. But what scared me was when we were near the cabin. She was gripping her backpack so tight that I thought the straps would break. It actually scared me, I didn't like seeing her feel like that. Not only did she feel like that, but I could feel it as well. It wasn't as strong as it probably was for her but I could still feel the hurt, anger, and confusion that she was feeling.

I knew that when I got home my mom could see there was something wrong. Usually she would just ignore it because I have been depressed that I haven't found my mate and she got tired of hearing me whine about it. I'm just glad she never told anyone that I would whine about not finding my girl but now that I've found her, I will be much happier and less whiny, if that's a word. I just need to find out why she's feeling that way.

At lunch, I could feel she was upset and I found Kyle, our Alpha, talking to her. I knew he warned her to stay away from our pack but I knew that wasn't happening any time soon. I had walked up to him and told him to leave her alone because she is my mate. He just argued back that she didn't belong here and I argued back saying that if she didn't, I didn't and that shut him up. He was my best friend and I wouldn't want to lose him and he felt the same way about me. Now that I think about it, where was my baby's pack?

"Honey, what's wrong?" my mom asked as I walked into the kitchen.

"I found my mate, Ma," I told her and she screamed.

"I'm so happy!" she screamed but stopped when she saw my face. "What's wrong? She's alive right?" I nodded and she became confused. "Oh my god she's pregnant by someone else isn't she?! I'm going to kill that girl!"

"Mom! She's not pregnant by someone else! Chill!"

"Then why are you so sad?"

"Because I'm feeling her emotions and I don't like them."

"She's okay, right?"

"I don't know, Mom. She's always in her own little world it seems and today I followed her to the abandoned cabin and she scared me. One minute she was staring in awe at the cabin and the next she was clenching her eyes and-" I stopped since I felt a sharpness in my chest.

Mate-my wolf said and I stood up. My mom seemed confused but I ran out of the house, allowing my wolf to take me to my mate. Why was she feeling this way? Right now, I was scared out of my mind, I hope nothing bad was happening. When I finally gained control of my wolf, I was in front of a door.

Go in, you idiot. Our mate is in there-my wolf said and I knocked and waited. She didn't answer and I heard her scream so I rushed through the door, kind of breaking it in the process and ran in the direction of her screams. She was thrashing around in her bed and I was scared. When I sat on the bed she screamed louder but I grabbed her and held her in my arms with her head on my chest and she stopped screaming but was breathing hard. Her heart seemed to be beating a mile a minute.

"Baby, shh. It's okay. Wake up, please," I whispered in her ear and her breathing became more even as she started to wake up. Her eyes met mine and she bolted out of my arms and I couldn't help but feel a little hurt by that.

"W-what are you doing here?" she asked, shakily.

"I felt you scream," I told her and she looked away. "Please, tell me what's wrong. I don't like seeing you like this. Or feeling your emotions." Her eyes widened and she looked at me.

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Please, Blayz."

"Go ask your Alpha." The way she said that worried me. What had they really talked about? Did she tell him why she was here? I hope he knows because I can tell she doesn't want to talk about it.

"I can't help you if you don't tell me. It's not my Alpha's place to say anything."

"Please don't make me say it. I can't take saying it again." A tear escaped her eye and I stood in front of her, brushing it off.

"Alright, I won't but if you scream again, you need to." She pushed my hand away and I knew she saw the hurt on my face as she backed away.

"Just leave," she said and I hesitated but left with my wolf screaming at me to get back there. Something was seriously wrong and I was going to figure it out but not from Kyle. He shouldn't have to tell me, Blayz should. Walking home, I started to think of ways to get her to tell me what was wrong. Either way, if she wouldn't tell me, I was going to figure it out myself.
