The boys all glanced at each other after I howled. Joseph told the others with his glance that he knew I had it under control.
Those who had gone to the store yipped back at my howl and hurried back.
Once they arrived and the food was set aside, I playfully tackled the four. "What took you guys so long?" I passed their phones back and we got up, "Here."
"Theodore was looking for a Brazilian candy, which the store didn't carry." Eric declared, as he nipped my shoulder and bumped me into Theodore.
"Oh really now, Theo?" I hit Theodore with my shoulder.
"Yeah, but you would've liked to try it. I'll get some to you eventually." He pushed me back towards Eric.
Jesse growled at the playful antics of the two boys and I. I advanced towards him, snarling. He whined as he gave into my authority. "CarBella, I'm sorry."
Collin took a step forward, ready to break up a fight.
The others had been munching on food already, but they also moved to break it up. I glance at them for a moment before responding to Jesse. "You know they're friends and that's just play."
He cowered further, not use to being schooled on his manners. "Yes, but it just slipped."
"It shouldn't have just slipped. I've shown you my normal and given you plenty of time to have you adapt to it. I've given you a gift that valued beyond your own life by my kind. I can take it away just as easily." I held my aggressive stance with everyone waiting for the fight to break loose.
"Did you just threaten my life? I'm suppose to be your mate. That shouldn't happen." He did the worst thing he could have done. He changed his cowering stance to a dominant, aggressive one.
"If you knew anything that I've tried to teach you, fool, you'd know that threatening a mate's life happens. It's acceptable. It's something we, as werewolves, and our kin, the true wolf, have in common. We all live by it. Don't you dare try to tell me about what comes naturally to me and not to you." I felt my body shudder, ready to shift.
"You don't know anything. You're the fool." Jesse's voice was full of arrogance. His eyes told me that he was talking about the other girls.
"Really? Ava gave me the prove I needed to kill you. I've always known, but never had the prove." My voice was hinted with a cruel tone as I watched Jesse go from arrogant to fearful. I knew he wasn't expecting that.
"Ava? Who's Ava?" He shied away and avoided eye contact with any of the boys.
"The girl that called while you were gone. I answered, like always. She and I got to talking about what you've been up to since before we've been together." I smirked and mentally wagged my tail, even though I was still human.
"What's that?" He kept the game up, and it was starting to annoy me. That wouldn't be safe for him.
"You know, having several girls on the side that let you in their pants, all because I won't let you in my pants. You already knew that I wouldn't let you in my pants very easily for a long, long, long time, so you figured that I was too innocent to know plan."
"That's not true. I love you! I'm sorry! I should've never thought about it." He locked eyes with me. He tried to cover his lies, but I saw right through them.
"You don't love me.You love my body, and you don't want the next guy to have a shot at it. You're only sorry that you got caught, not that you did it." Another shudder brought on my shift. Within milliseconds, I was in wolf form. Only I shifted. None of the rest did, but several were ready to.
"You know what CarBella? I never wanted that gift. Take it back." He stood in front of me, waiting for me to reverse it with a spell. What he didn't remember was that the only way to take away he was given was to kill him. That was because I had given him part of my wolf's life to supply him with the gift.
I acted before I even thought about it. My claws shredded through his torso, dividing bones, ripping flesh, and destroying his heart and lungs with it. He died within moments. I didn't realise what I had done until it was too late.
