“I love you so much Malv.” I whispered into Mitch’s ear and I almost full heartedly did. I just didn’t know if he was my mate so I can’t say that I’ll forever be with him or anything. I’m pretty sure I will be but when I turn sixteen I’ll really know for sure. Mitch and I are wolves’ part of the Sakura Pack. We have been dating for three years now and we love each other very much. I wish I could say that he is my mate but that would be lying because I don’t truly know yet. You can know your mate your whole life but not be attracted until you turn sixteen. My best friend Jason hasn’t found his yet and he just turned sixteen a week ago. Besides Malvin, Jason is the only other person that I hang out with. He’s been my best friend and my shoulder to cry on since I was two and we moved in next to him. I love him so much and if I weren’t with Malvin I’d be with him. I’ve only known Malvin since I was thirteen and we started dating immediately. My sixteenth birthday is coming up in two weeks and I’m especially excited because a week before when I’m with my mate I can start to feel the pull towards him and when we touch feel the tingles. He’ll feel them too because his birthday is the day after mine. Malvin and I were hanging out at my house cuddling and watching a movie.
“I love you more Alyssa.” He whispered back and I smiled feeling absolutely content with life at the moment. We were watching titanic so my happiness was soon ruined. By the end of the movie I was sobbing into my knees while Malvin just sat there awkwardly. Most guys don’t really know how to comfort a girl when she’s crying except for Jason. He is the only person who can help me when I feel down because I was thinking about my brother. He died a month ago in a car accident with my mom. She broke her arm but he ended up being in a coma and then having so much brain damage that he had to be put to sleep. Not even Malvin makes me feel better and lately I’ve been feeling like I want to hang out with Jason more than Malvin. I can’t figure out why but it just seems like I’m drawn to him and I’ve started noticing how cute he is too. Like the other day he was wearing a tight shirt and skinny jeans and I couldn’t stop staring at him. He’s actually a really handsome guy and he is really fit. He is seriously built with a six pack, pecs, biceps, and even nice calves. His skin is lightly tanned and he has mesmerizing silver eyes. That’s the only way you can tell he’s a wolf, his eyes. He has shaggy blond hair and the cutest little nose. His lips are his best part, full and pink he just seems so kissable. Malvin on the other hand, Is thick but muscular. He also has slightly tanned skin and brown eyes. I, on the other hand, have long blond hair and tanned skin. I have light silver eyes and I’m fairly skinny but with curves.
I finished crying and told Malvin that I had to do homework so he had to leave. I didn’t actually have to homework it’s just the movie reminded me of my brother and I knew that if I was sad he wouldn’t be any help. I called Jason and told him abou the movie and how I was sad now and he told me he’d be right over. I started pick up the bowls from the popcorn Malvin and I had but stopped when the doorbell rang. I went to open it but when I was a few steps away it swung open and Jason ran in half naked. When he spotted me he scooped me up in his arms and set me down on his lap on the couch. I instantly felt better but acted sad so he’d stay even though he already knew me too well to lie.
“You okay Lis?” Jason asked softly looking into my eyes. I couldn’t say anything, as I felt trapped in his gaze. I finally realized I had been staring at him and looked down in embarrassment. Only to see his rock hard abs and stare at those. “If you don’t want to talk about it that’s fine.” He said looking at me sympathetically. He brushed a loose strand of hair behind my ear and when he took his hand away I wanted to whimper. It felt so right to have him touch me. ‘Something must be seriously wrong…’ I told myself in my head. He put his finger under my chin and I felt a bit of tingles where his finger touched my skin. ‘NO! NO WAY!! Jason can’t be my mate.. He must not know either. I had started to feel drawn to my mate and it wasn’t Malvin.’ I looked at him and when he smiled at me I couldn’t help but smile back. Seeing him smile made me so happy and all I wanted was to make him happy.
“I feel better now Jace but please don’t leave. We can do whatever you want but I want you to stay with me. Please?” I asked him trying to keep the desperation out of my voice. He looked at me like I was a little kid and I pouted at him.
“Lis you know I’d do anything for you!” he said confidently and I felt my heart leap.
“Wait.. Your half naked tough. You should put some clothes on first.” I said not wanting to get hormonal and have him be able to sense it if he really was my mate. I couldn’t even focus correctly.
“Why? You think I’m fat or something?” He asked faking hurt. I just smirked at him and shook my head in shame.
“Okay fine.” I said grouchily getting of his lap. I felt cold after being wrapped in his arms and I started shivering. He noticed and asked me what was wrong.
“I don’t know I feel like there was a sudden breeze or something.” I said not wanting to tell him that I needed him because he was my mate and he would keep me warm. Thankfully he opened his arms again and I snuggled back in while he grabbed the blanket from next to him and I grabbed the remote.
