horse shifter Trying To Fit In

Chapter 8

David's point of view

well I fucked up! oh well I smirk looking over Lucy who was panting from our fun time. I got dressed and walked down to a fuming Tammy "how could you! Beth's your mate! that would have hurt her!" she yelled at me ignoring the rank. I walked over to her making her walk back till she was against the wall, I stare into her eyes "I'm your buck show some respect" I huffed at her. now where is that ' mate' of mine. I felt Tammy watch me "she's left David" she bowed her head this time, I smirked couldn't handle the truth then going into my office and doing some work .

Lucy walked in god she was good looking, I smiled looking up at her, I know she's a herds slut but who cares my 'mate' left so I'm free to have fun with who I like. " babe, can I have food?" she asked, I nodded and got up and made her some yeah I know she's  simple, but  its better than a bossy girl.

Beth's point of view

I sat on the chair watching the storm that lasted a week, watching the rain make patterns on the window and trees catch fire as bolts of lightning hit them, it felt different being inside when a storm was rattling on, but it was cosy and John had been nice making sure I was good and ok with the storm, I would always smile and nod, I had decided that the wolves felt like home more than the deer's, I was about to tell John, but then he walked in smiling "hey Beth...urm would you want to be my girlfriend?" I looked at him with tears in my eyes "yes!" I babbled out smiling, before I flung my arms around his neck, he chuckled picking me up and hugging me back ,I was a lot smaller than him.

I had made a friend with one of the girls in the pack her name was Paint  she had black hair and her skin had patches of red birthmarks it was cool.

I went on a daily ride with Thunder but never with tack the was no need being the same animal. we walked over a little bridge to the village it was small but had everything, I put Thunder by the door stay and u can have an apple I smile going in and looking round and picking up ice pops and apples and paying the centaur behind the counter, before leaving catch thunder! I giggled throwing an apple as he catches it, I smile letting him eat it before hopping back on his back and trotting home to my boyfriend man that sounds so nice not mate but I normal relationship but with knowing he's my true mate. I walk Thunder to the field and let him loose before going into the house I'm home! I yelled and I have ice pops! I giggle as a bunch of the cubs come racing in and taking one, I smile looking up and seeing a happy John hi babe I smile walking over and kissing his cheek which was so soft.

David's PV 

I walked with Lucy round the yard "Buck what are we doing?" she asked looking confused I looked over at her with a grin "I'm not your buck...I'm your mate" sinking my teeth into her small neck she let out a small cry as I let go looking at her with a big grin before walking off and moving a horse round out the way. she grinned skipping up to me and walking next to me with a  smile for the rest of the day.

Beth's PV

I lay reading with my head resting on Johns lap while he talked to some of the worriers about the territory, I coughed a bit and he looked down making sure I was ok before carrying on talking.

I suddenly felt pain raising through my body as Tallaugh cried out he's mated  with her!! I looked at John as tears fell down my cheeks "help me..." I whimpered in pain that it didn't feel like it made a sound but everyone in the room heard it and John was looking at me trying to figure out what was wrong, I cried harder "he mated...!!" Paint run in and stopped dead looking at me "it happened he mated the girl in his herd" she answered, she had a different power to the others she could mind read and speak to the shifter animal.

I  was rushed to the ward in Johns warm, homely arms, he laid me on a bed and watch as the packs healer looked over me then turned and looked in some books before calling John over and whispering something I couldn't pick up, he looked over his shoulder before nodding and sitting next to me and holding my hand giving it a squeeze "you need to remove the mating on you and him and then you can carry on without this pain baby" looking at me seriously. I nodded "but doesn't he have to be in ear shot to hear it?" looking at the healer who shook her head I nodded and looked at John "I'll do it when I feel better" I smile getting out of the bed "now where were we in your talk" I smile walking back to where my book lay open, he chuckled and sat down as I rested my head on my lap "don't do that again baby ok?" I nodded as they continued the talk.
