Protecting Elijah

•Elijah's POV•

PLEASE READ THE AUTHORS NOTE

A/N: I will probably only be doing a couple of different POV's, just because I don't like switching them back and forth, so most of the book will be in Jessica's POV.

This takes place after Elijah left Stephan with Jessica at the house to go "deal with something" back in Chapter 9, read this carefully lol.

HAPPY SATURDAY!!!

Enjoy! :)

I don't want to be bothered. Only contact me if someone is dying. I tell Stephan through mind link.

I trust him with my life. I know he would tell me anything that I needed to know. That's why I chose him as Beta. He's trustworthy, and a great warrior. He earned his place as Beta, he fought for it like a strong warrior would.

He's never let me down, nor will he ever. He wouldn't betray me, because blood is thicker than water.

Stephan and his Father took me in when I was sixteen years old. I had nothing at the time. I had just shifted for the first time on my sixteenth birthday, and I looked for Stephan. He was the brother I never had.

My father was a cruel man. He killed my mother right in front of me. Tortured us everyday, beat us until we were black and blue, while he laughed. The sick bastard left before I could kill him. Fucking coward.

After years and years of practicing, training, sweat and blood. I got to where I am now. I worked for this, I started from scratch with nothing. I made this community, this pack, these warriors. All of it. People think I have it easy, that I'm just some ruthless Alpha who can kill anyone they want.

No, that's not what it's like.

They think they know me.

But they don't, they never will.

People judge me, they think all of this was handed to me on a silver platter with, gold utensils and a fancy French napkin to go with it.

No, that's not how it happened.

As I sit here, a million and one thoughts in my head.

I need to go for a run.

I go to one of the trails in my pack, that only Stephan and I know about. We take this way when visiting Pa. Yes that's what we call Stephan's father, he insisted on it.

Peeling off my clothes I stand in the sun for a minute, allowing my body to soak up the sun. Beaming from the warmth as I stretch my muscles, releasing the stress from my pores. Finally a fucking break.

Why did you leave our mate? My wolf Mennox says to me.

I need to think.

Think about what? He asks I know what I want, we know what we want and that's her, Jordan he purrs out.

And Jessica I say smiling at the though of her beautiful face.

She's so beautiful. Perfect. Everything a man could ever ask for. God I'm getting hard just over the though of her.

And Jessica he agrees with a slight groan to his voice.
