The Mate That Got Away

Chapter Four

When we finally got home Lilly left the car right away leaving me and Wyatt alone. Wyatt turned around in his seat and looked me in the eyes. His eyes were filled with worry, concern, and pitty.

"Okay, um, remember when I told you I was a werewolf. Well, um, I imprinted on you. You are my mate for life. If you die, I will die too. We don't have to be together, but I'm supposed to be protecting you from danger, just as you are to protect me. I'm also the Alpha of the New Moon pack. That makes you the packs Luna. That's why I went after Osten. He's my soon-to-be-Beta. Unfortunately, if he keeps having those kind of thoughts about you, I'm going to have to kick him out of the pack."

"Wait a minute. So how did I turn into a werewolf?"

"It makes it easier to protect the mate. If I got into a problem with vampires you would be able to help protect me."

"Okay, why am I your mate, of all of the people at PSU, why me?"

"I don't know. But I'm glad the moon goddess made it to be me and you."

"You're kidding right?"

"No, I love you."

"What if I decided to not be with you?"

"Then I would be your protector. Oh, and just so you know, it would be in your best interest to not have sex with anyone but me."

"I'm waiting until after marriage."

"Good."

"Alright, well I'm gonna go in. Meet me in your room."

Then I got out and walked away, leaving Wyatt there completely speechless. I went upstairs to his room and started undressing. Shortly after Wyatt came into the room while I was on his bed with nothing on. He looked at me then started undressing, taking everything but his boxers off.

"What happened to no sex after marriage?"

"Kissing naked and sex aren't the same thing."

With that his lips were all over mine. Then he trailed them down to my shoulders, finally burying his head in between my boobs. Now to be honest, I don't have big boobs, but for whatever reason he thought they were comfortable.

After about ten minutes if this, I decided that I had enough. Wyatt let it go as much as he wanted to have sex. I looked in his eyes and he looked back. There were so many things I wanted to tell him, but I didn't know how to tell him.

I wanted to tell him that I wasn't sure I wanted to stay together, because I wanted to see a variety. I wanted to know my other options before I settled down with anyone. But we were mates for life, wouldn't that mean he was my partner for life too?

"Calm down, you're breathing heavy," he whispered.

"Well I vote you get your happy ass up so I can put clothes on. Your weight might be the reason,"I replied.

"That's my Quinn."

He got up and handed me clothes to put on. I put them on without hesitation and watched him change. Again, I didn't have any bras which was unfortunate, because my nipples were hard. I was cold and it was April.

We went downstairs and outside while Lilly was inside making lunch. Lilly was like a mother I never had. At this point I had no family. Our cousins stopped visiting after mom died, and dad is an only child. My grandparents are gone, so we have literally no family. That played another part of why my dad beat me.

Wyatt and I ended up sitting on the porch swing, simply waiting to be called in for lunch. For some reason, all I could think about was Wyatt. I wanted Wyatt to be mine and I felt like if I didn't do that, then I was bound to hurt whoever separated us. And if it was me, I would be upset with myself.
