Hunting Mate

Chapter Five

I woke up in bed cuddling into Pandora, it just felt right like we'd been in a relationship for years. I kissed her cheek but, again, something in my head was telling me not to go any further however, my body was telling me to go for it.
I watched as her eyes flickered open, she turned to face me with a smile on her face "good morning" she greeted "good morning" she places a kiss on the side of my mouth, "do you want some breakfast?" I asked her, she nodded.

We climbed out of bed and ventured to the kitchen so I could start making breakfast for us. Last night, we had just laid in bed cuddling and chatting about anything and everything until she fell asleep then I went into the bathroom and phased so I could find out how Frankie was doing, it turned out she only shot his leg, so he was just on bed rest for a while.

I hand Pandora her waffles "so, what made you start hunting wolves?" I ask "I've always had this fascination with wolves since I was younger and as a way of prove he was a good dad, my dad would go hunt wolves and give me their heads as presents, he once brought me back a whole wolf but then after my mother passed away, I moved in with him and he would take me with him. I draw the wolves more than I hunt them, I only hunt when it's necessary and to make my dad happy" she explains.

I nod, eating, trying to take it all in what she just told me, at least it was more of her dads passion to kill me than hers "what about you? Do wolves not phase you?" she asked I wanted to laugh and say 'actually the oppose I phase to a wolf' but that would not be a good thing to say so I just shake my head "I've lived around here long enough to know, if you don't bother then they won't bother you" I said that as more of a warning to back off "we saw one yesterday, it was the cutest wolf I have ever seen in my life, what I saw of it was ash brown and grey fur with what looked like honey brown eyes but it was hiding so I could be wrong" she has just described me-I was the cutest wolf in her eyes.

I had to force myself not to kiss her and thank her. I noticed she was staring at me, I raise an eyebrow at her "can I draw you one time?" she asks randomly, which shocked me "why?" I asked "it's just you have the most magnificent eyes I have ever seen and your hair and jaw line are both amazing. You were made to be drawn" she said with a sweet smile, like she meant every word "why not hey" I say back with a smile.

I washed the pots we just used, she dried and put them away then we headed back to the west area of the forest, I hope that when we get there they come running over to us so we don't have to go over there. Although, I really don't want to take her back, I want to hold her forever and keep her at my side and protect her. I felt her grab my hand and I had tingles running up and down my arm, I was complete.

We chatting about life again covering stuff we hadn't last night. I had told her I graduated college with a mechanical engineering degree and also a degree in performing arts and design, and she told me she was doing performing arts and that she was loving every minute of it but she was leaning more to just the arts than performing arts.

I could listen to her talking for hours, even if it was just reading a dictionary from cover to cover. We walked hand-in-hand until we nearly reached her father and his friends-I could smell how strong there scent was and I could see their trucks too. Pandora tugged me, pulling me behind a tree and kisses me but something in my head was screaming at me to stop-what is wrong with me?

We finally walked over as far as I could go, I pretended I had a bad pain in my leg and needed to sit down so I didn't have to go any further, she sat down next to me "are you ok?" she asks sounding really worried about me which is adorable, I nod "fine, nothing a nice little rest won't help" I lie.

Pandora's father comes running over "baby" he says as he leans down and hugs her tightly, he stands back up as does Pandora and I, he opens his mouth "I got attacked and Layton helped me" she explained before he could even ask "why don't you go get it checked by your Uncle Coop, why I thank Layton" he says, she smiles at me and runs over to everyone else.

I look at her father dragging my eyes away from his daughter "listen here, what exactly do you get from helping my baby girl?" he asks sourly "I enjoy helping others, if they are in need I will help them" I explain "well don't expect any favors in return" he said 'favors' in a sick tone of voice, I shake my head "it never crossed my mind, sir" it actually hadn't, last night all that went through my mind was that I got to spend time with her it was similar to hanging out with my mates when I hadn't seen them in a while "where did she sleep?" he asks, oh no "in a cabin that belongs to my al...boss" I answer thankful I caught myself before I slipped up "did you sleep in the same bed?" oh no, I look at him "yes, but I promise nothing happened, she was cold and there was only a thin blanket" I explain.

He turns to look at everyone behind him then back at me "you stay away from my baby girl, I mean it you pervert" he says poking me in the chest with his forefinger with every word then he turns to walk away "how am I a pervert?" I question, I had helped his daughter clean a wound not rape her or make her my personal dancer "so you spent the whole night with her and you never talked?" he asked in a tone that made me think of horror movies, he came close to me "she's 14 years old" he whispers before walking away.

She can't be, she was in a bar and she looks around 19. It can't be true!
