Tough Love, Honey -On Hold-

Chapter 5

Picture of Skylar on the side.

----------------------------------------------

I had found my mate. I wasn’t happy. I was ecstatic.

Hell he scared me I thought he was going to attack me. But when he came after me and apologized to me it helped me realize that I did need him because when he came close my wolf was howling for him to be closer. And when I heard him speak I shivered.

 He had a British accent, which helped his case a lot. As I have said before I love British accents. I wanted to trust him really bad and it was hard to not trust him, whenever I looked into his green eyes I nearly spilled my whole life story. I really wanted to tell him, and it wasn’t that I was scared that he would go rage and kill them, he could murder there sorry asses right in front of my eyes for all I care after the way they treated my brother and I, no I was scared that he would reject me. I mean who wants a mate who was abused and has scars all over her body.

If I was him I would reject me. Anyway after he found out that we were mates he had all his classes changed so they were the same as mine. Even though Noah had his classes the same. I think he is supposed to me more protective of his mate.

“Hey, Sky,” I was getting my books out of my locker after lunch. I knew the voice anywhere. It was Stryker. His voice made me shiver with delight, especially when he said my name. I turned around to face him and smiled.

“Hey, Stryker.” He didn’t have any books in his hand and considering we both had the same classes next that was weird.

“Stryker, are you okay?” he looked into my eyes and I saw the pained expression on his face. I became instantly worried. MY mate was hurt and I needed to comfort him.

“I…. Guess so. I just feel like you haven’t told me anything about you. So you wanna skip the rest of school and find out more about each other?” great the thing I have been dreading. Telling him about my life. I couldn’t really say no could I. then he would think that I didn’t want him, which is far from true.

“Sure, I guess we could do that.” His eyes brightened when I agreed and it made me ecstatic to see that I had made my mate happy. He ran up to me and hugged me. I laughed and hugged him back. I smelled his scent and if he wasn’t hugging me I would have collapsed. He smelled like freshly mowed grass and the woods. I loved his scent. He pulled away to look at me.

“Sky. You are beautiful and you always will be.” I broke down those words made me loose it. No one had ever called me beautiful, not even Zane. He had tried to before but I wouldn’t let him. I would always stop him before he could say it. Stryker pulled me closer to comfort me. But it only made me cry more.

 I sobbed into his chest. His shirt was now tear stained.

“Skylar, are you okay?” 

“Um maybe, I don’t know, can we go home?”

“Sure, baby girl. Do you want to go to my house or yours?”

“Yours? Is that okay?” I wasn’t trying to sound dirty but I really didn’t want to go back to Amily and Dente’s, Dente would be home and he would ask why I was crying and who the person who was with me was and I didn’t want to have to explain that yet.

“Yes it’s okay, baby girl.” He kept calling me baby girl but I didn’t mind. It wasn’t a problem to me.

“Okay I just have to tell the girls where I am going.”

“Okay meet me out the front.” He kissed me on the forehead before he walked away, my wolf howled with satisfaction and I was pretty happy my self from the contact.
