Age is Nothing But A Number

Nothing but a Wolf?

I tossed and turned that night feeling extremely uncomfortable. My lips still tingled where Damien had kissed me hours before and I could only think about his lips and warm embrace. I felt my body temperature rise and I moaned in pain as I felt like I was burning up. I must have been coming down with some type of cold because I felt aches all over my body. It was seven in the morning and I finally was falling asleep when the heavy weight of coco and his dog breathe woke me right up. I groaned and moaned while sliding from underneath my baby before getting up. It felt like my body temperature increased even more and i grasp the wall in order to hold myself up. But coco was quick to run up behind me trying to hold my legs up with his big body. I made it to the kitchen in a sleepy haze and some how I managed to pour coco some food and get him water. He ran to eat while I flopped down at my kitchen table resting my head on it. My head was spinning and the burning wouldn't stop and the weird part about it was that I felt it the most between my legs. I began to get scared because what if I had an STD. Once that thought crossed my mind I dismissed the immediately. In order for me to have a std it would probably require me to have sex. I groaned knowing something was off, I couldn't even think right. I heard a jingle and coco stood in front of me again whining with his leash in his mouth. I cursed realizing I hadn't walked him yesterday and he needed his exercise. I got up from the table and slowly but surely I was able to change into my running clothes and get ready for our jog. Once I was dressed I reached under my bed to put on my nikes but my hand ran across something cold and shinny. I pulled it out along with my shoes. A golden watch laid in my hands. It was so beautiful that I knew it wasn't mine. Flipping it over I confirmed it when the initials read "Alpha DK". But the carving of a beautiful black wolf on the back caused me to frown up.  My first thought was how did the watch end up under my bed then I figured it must of fell off last night when he was getting his stuff. But then there was the question of why did say "Alpha Damien". I was so deep into my thought that I had forgot about the burning until it felt like i was on fire. I leaned over holding on to my stomach trying to catch my breath. The pain couldn't have last for more than a couple of seconds but it felt like hours. I slowly got up from the ground and limped to the door. Grabbing my phone I dialed Damien's number. He picked up after two rings and as soon as he said hello a raspy moan slid past my lips. My face instantly got hot even though I knew he could not see it.

"Jasmine" He growled out in his deep sexy voice. My breathing came out fast and all at once the burning seem to go up ten times higher. I pushed my  shaky fingers through my curls trying to focus.

"H-hi Damien I-I you left your watch at my house and I just found it. I'm about to take coco on run so I can drop it off for you it looks important" I said in a rush.

"What watch and are you okay?" He murmured into my ear.

"The watch that says Alpha Damien and there is a beautiful wolf carved on it. By the way what's an alpha?" Silence ranged over the line and I starred at my phone to see if it was still on.

"Jasmine I want you to get here as soon as you can okay?" Damien said in a panic hoarse whisper.

"Uhh okay but why?"

"I just need to see you and talk to you" His voice sounded a bit calmer as I agreed that I'd be there asap. After hanging up I slid the watch on my wrist so I wouldn't forget it. Then I pushed my hair into a high pony tail while grabbing my water bottle, keys, and coco's collar. We were out of the door in no time and coco happily lead the way to Damien's secret neighborhood. As the White Houses came into view I stopped suddenly remembering my last encounter here. I took a moment to breath in and out before silently entering the utopia. It was quiet as usually but when I walked down the street the houses were no longer abandon there were little kids playing on the front lawns, elderly people sat on their porches talking and everyone seemed friendly. But as I began passing their houses, conversations came to a brutal stop and people began bowing to me? I tried to act normal and smile politely but the stares and weird behavior was getting to me. Coco and I quickly made our way to the biggest house in the utopia and knocked on the door. A little boy answered the door, flashing me a beautiful smile.
