Emily POV
"Where are you going Emily?" Nathan asked me.
"Home. Why do you care? to hurt me more?" I asked him. He grabbed my arm. There's the shock I've been waiting for. scared I jumped away. He stared at me.
"It's you! The girl I have always loved. The person who's so shy," he said shocked, "but it can't be. Your a human."
"That's what I'm hiding. I'm a shapeshifter. I can change into three different forms. Unlike you," I answer.
"How come you're living on my land?" he asked.
"Because this is where I wanted to go and I felt some type of pull here. I always knew this place was special. Now I understand why," I say. With that I take off running and shift into a white wolf. Now this color was really rare and special. I can't change the color I am. So I have this color and only this color. Nate took off running after me but he did not shift.
"Shift now!" he yelled at me. With that I was forced to shift. That when I realized I was completely naked in front of him. He took off his coat and shirt and gave them to me. I was glad he was my mate so I wouldn't be embarrassed about being naked in front of him. It wasn't like i didn't want him to see me that way, just we have to get to know each other better first.
"You know you're talking out loud right? It may be cute but we need to get going. Where do you want me to drop you off at?" he asked me.
"Well sorry but can you take me with you? My mom and dad beat me so I don't want to go home," I answered him scared.
Nathan POV
When I heard her say her parents beat her I growled. I then realized they may not even care if shes gone. That's what I'm going to do. I'm going to help her run away from her parents. I don't care if she loves them or not. She don't need that. Shes a wonderful girl. I will always remember I bullied the girl I fell in love with but ended up being okay to be with even though she may not want me around her. I would totally understand if she would want me to leave her alone. I mean like we aren't perfect but maybe I should reject her. I don't need a nerd when I'm the next alpha. I hope she will understand. I want to know who my second mate would be.
Emily POV
When I saw him thinking I knew he was going to reject me because I'm a nerd and he's the next alpha. I knew he would reject me anyways. I'm not exactly worth the fight. I understand this so I should tell him that I am rejecting him.
"I have to tell you something." I tell him.
"Let me guess you are rejecting me? I was going to do the same thing but I couldn't bring myself to say it out loud. I mean yes I love how you look but you would bring me down and I don't need that right now. So how about we take it slow and if it don't work then reject each other?" he asked me. To say I was stunned was a understatement. I never thought the next alpha would want to try and take things slow. The guy who would do one night stands with people while I wait for my mate. It hurt but I understand that he must have thought he wouldn't find his mate. I didn't think i would either. Me being me, I start to walk towards my horrible place I call home. My mom and dad aren't getting home till nine tonight so I can change before they get home.
