The Scarred Wolf

Three: Everything Worth Living For

|JACI|

I groaned as an ache filled my lower regions. I knew it was all worth it though.

A smile found my lips at last nights memories of my mate-

Oh gosh I just love the sound of that! I thought to myself.

I stretched my aching joints then curled to try and huddle closer to find Terrence’s suspectingly warm mass. When I came up short I turned to look and see if he was already awake only to find him not there at all. Touching where he used to lay I found it was cold, almost like he didn’t sleep there at all.

I frowned at that sight and pushed myself up to look around my room for any trace of him.

His clothes were gone from the floor and all of his other person items too.

This created a sinking creator in my chest.

Groaning in slight pain I pushed myself out of bed to collect my clothes and get fresh ones.

After changing I went to grab my phone text Terrence but when I got to my phone I saw a note lying on top of it.

I picked it up and quickly read over the content.

I’ll talk to you at school. Don’t tell anyone yet.

A frown pulled at my lips as I was hoping for an explanation for his leaving and some little trace in there that last night was at the very least good. Maybe something even about us being mates or just something.

Closing my eyes the pictures of us last night almost made me melt into the floor. We made love time and time again and I couldn’t ever find a way possible to ever get enough of him.

Just the thought of him and all his glory along with the emotion in his eyes would make me die a happy girl.

But that didn’t really I guess mean he enjoyed it.

Suddenly thoughts of doubt were flooding my brain.

What if I wasn’t that good? I mean I’m inexperienced. But wouldn’t he like that? He was my first and would be my only. But maybe he had some higher expectations. He probably was expecting some girl with deeper curves then me and a prettier less mediocre face.

‘Shut up, he loved us! Didn’t you hear it the thousands of times he said it!?’ My wolf yelled at me.

She was right. Right when we were coming to the end of our first session when I thought he was going to mark me he groaned to us that he loved me.

I had nearly died from happiness and tears escaped me then. I also remember thinking I had all I wanted in life at such a young age with one of the greatest people I could ever have a life with.

Bitting the inside of my cheek I tried to keep my smile from growing off my face.

Looking at the clock I saw it was only 6:42 and set the note down.

I was slightly curious to why he said he would see me at school and what time he had left and why, but I didn’t all of a sudden want to become that clinging obsessive girlfriend/mate just in the first few hours of finding each other.

I decided to distract myself with work and braved up to go downstairs in take inventory of the mess from last nights party. The moment I stepped outside of my bedroom I was struck with the burning smell of the lingering alcohol and there were two people lying in the hallway.

This was going to be a long weekend.

Monday was finally here! I was so excited I even woke up an extra hour earlier.

I was dressed in a cute dress the was a sweetheart cut with black lace take stopped right beneath my breast and went into a pink and black floral pattern and stopped mid thigh. My hair was curled in perfect ringlets and my makeup was done beautifully. For shoes I wore cute short black wedges.

A smile was burned onto my lips as I was beyond happy with my look and hoped that Terrence would too.

Walking to my locker I quickly dropped off my stuff and got ready to hunt down Terrence. I already had a plan.

I would walk right up into my mates arms and press my lips to his, claiming him in front of everyone. Even my brother. When I’d pull away he would look at me with sheer happiness and pull me back for another kiss.

My heart raced at that thought and my wolf howled with excitement.

I walked towards his locker which was around the corner but stopped that the sound of his voice ending and a females starting.

“Who did you sleep with that was so important?” The girl asked, her voice high pitched and snobby.

I stayed behind the lockers waiting to hear my mate stand up for me. Pride swelled in my heart at the thought of that. Him saying ‘Jac’ like he was last night over my screaming of his name and love for him.

‘Would that be too dramatic is he said that and we walked around the corner just then?’ I asked my wolf, Deweth.

She yipped with the excitement I was feeling right now. ‘Maybe but who cares!’

“No one.” He replied coldly.

My throat closed and immediately my heart stuttered. I waited for him to say something more.

“No one?” She asked unconvinced.

“Nothing worth any of my time, babe.”

That’s not Terrence. No his voice sounds different. I lied to myself.

I couldn’t stop myself from peaking around the lockers to see that it wasn’t him and prove to myself that Terrence loved me.

The image of Terrence’s tongue down another girls throat was seared into my mind.

Everything stopped. The breath in my lungs. The beat of my heart. The sound of the world.

All that was racing through my head was his ‘I love you’s’ from Friday night how I gave my heart up to him. How happy I was; how content I was laying in his arms in the aftermath with him asleep drawing on his bare chest softly thinking how lucky I was and nothing in the world could ever make me happier.

All I could think about was how I looked up to his peaceful face and thought, ‘I finally have everything worth living for.’

Was it heart breaking enough? I hope it was! Well I still hope I got the point across...
