Love Thy Wolf Mate (Book 1: Mated Midnight Series)

~6~ Love Thy Wolf Mate

Love Thy Wolf Mate

This chapter is, again a little shorter than I would've liked, but my computer froze in the middle of my writing and I lost some of it. Just so you know this is all in Micah's P.o.v.

Six:

~~~~Micah's P.o.v.~~~~

Kayla's grip on my arm was, surprisingly, almost painful as she pulled me out of the house. But not because her grasp was too strong, more like it was an uncomfortable sensation to have her touching me at all. It made me feel slightly sick to my stomach and I couldn't hold back my sigh of relief when she released my arm.

The minute her hand dropped away from my arm I started rubbing the spot she'd touched. It wasn't exactly painful , but I didn't like it and I had no clue what was going on.

“Are you okay? Why are you rubbing your arm?” Kayla frowned, pushing my hand out of the way. Red splotches, cover my arm where her hand had been, looking more like a rash than anything else. “What, are you allergic to my lotion or something?” She scowls at my arm, reaching out to touch the reddened area but I jerk my arm away before she can touch me.

“Don't touch it!” I rub my arm again, groaning when that sickening feeling lingers, intensifying when her hand gets closer to my skin. “I think I might be allergic to your lotion or something.” Seeing as how I've never been allergic to any lotion or anything that she's used before I'm willing to bet the or something is the case. “Where are we going?”

“I told you, I wanted to show you how beautiful this place is.” Kayla grins and rolls her eyes at my skeptical look. “What?”

I shake my head, “Nothing.” Her eyes narrow on me. “I just didn't think you'd want to be out in public with Jack's drawing still on your face.” Its quiet here, sure, but there are other cabins around, so its not like there's no one else around to see her. I figured Kayla would want to stay indoors and hide until the marker wore off.

She rubs a hand over her drawn on mustache and shrugs. “Oh well, Jack will get what's coming to him, soon. Besides, there's someone I wanted you to meet before we leave.”

“Kayla, I don't want you setting me up on any more dates!” The last one ended up with me having desert spilled all over me and, for some reason, Kayla cannot see why I wouldn't answer any of the guy's calls afterwards. Its like she didn't get that I didn't want food dumped all over me every time I went out with the guy. No matter how hot a guy may be; if he can't eat without spilling his food all over, I'm not interested.

“Her name is Nora and she's definitely not a guy.” Kayla rolls her eyes, sticking her hands in the back pockets of her shorts. “Can we go and see her? Or have you switched teams without telling anyone?”

“Kayla,” I groan, “That one kiss with Maci when we were both drunk didn't mean anything. I was bored and she's got a boyfriend.” I've no problem with anyone who is gay, lesbian, bi, whatever, but I happen to know for a fact that I only like guys. Luke, specifically.

“Just thought I'd check. I mean, its not like you've dated in awhile and I know its not because you're lacking in offers. So what is it? Have you sworn off dating forever?”

I snort, “We just turned 18, Kay. Its not like I won't be able to date anyone in a couple of months or something.” If I can figure out this funk Luke has me in.

“Yea, but Micah you'll only be hot for so long. Why not try and catch a guy now? That way when you're old and wrinkly he'll have no choice but to stick with you. He won't be able to run off when you start sagging.” A beaming smile takes over her face and her eyes glitter like she's just made some brilliant discovery.
