Unwilling (Werewolf Love Story)

Chapter 8: I Am Not His Mate!

~*Edited to my liking*~

He moves in closer to me. My heart is beating rapidly and I can feel his heart as well. I close my eyes as I wait for his lips to press against mine.

"Mommy?"

December 20

Knock. Knock. Knock.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 

Knock. Knock Knock!

"Ugh." Who the hell is that?

Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Somebody get that!"

I forgot. Everyone went out today.

"Emma?"

What the f***? I get up off the couch and tip-toe toward the side window.

"Emma. It's Jack! Open the door!" He bangs on the door again.

Did a beta just give an alpha an order? Strange enough, the order felt more powerful than a beta's commanding voice.

"Shit!" He whispers loudly.

I peek out the window, making sure not to be seen. Jack is in his uniform. I look out the driveway and see his patrol car. Shouldn't he be working?

"Emma. I know you're in there. Your car is out here in the driveway."

Crap!

I'm going to smack Michael when he gets back. He was supposed to put my car in the garage.

"Emma please. I'm sorry for trying to order you. But we need to talk." 

I still don't want to open the door. After Jack found out about me and Jason, I've been avoiding them both. I don't want to see Jack because he asked me out that day and I didn't want to hear about Jason being my mate.

I've been avoiding Jason because, well, because he makes me feel things I don't want to feel. The way he stared at me when we "almost" had our first kiss. Thankfully Sarah interrupted us and pulled me back into reality. She is getting a very large Christmas gift this year. 

But that day never leaves my thoughts. No matter how much I try. I mean, it's only been three days since it happened, but still. 

I remember when he said that Sarah was important to him. 

I remember how he softly pulled me away from the car and closed the space between us. He kept our faces so close, but didn't kiss me just yet. 

And the way he looked into my eyes. Oh, his beautiful blue-green eyes. I thought my knees would give out right there. And I could feel his breath as he whispered to my lips, telling me I was important to him. He nearly had complete control over me. And that kiss would have sealed it.

But the aftermath was worst. 

~*Flashback*~

When Sarah brought me back, I quickly got in my car and drove off. Another second, and I would've been lost forever.

I tried so hard to focus on the road. I couldn't let Sarah see me this way. She has already been freaked out enough this past week.

Don't look back, Emma!

I was shivering and couldn't seem to stop. I put on the heater, but nothing was working. My breathing was still short and rapid. My heart didn't want to slow down.
