Hunters Mark

Chapter 7

Annas pov

"No. Im staying Fane and you cant make me leave, Dave." I say glaring at Dave.

Dave just stares and nods at Fane knowing I'll never leave his side. I stare at his icy blue eyes and I swear I'll never forget the fear and shock in his eyes. I take a step forward and Fane growls while grabbing my arm to pull me back.

Fane, please let me go
I say sending him a thought.

Fane hesitantly lets go and Dave strides in front of Aiden and whoever that is. As soon as Dave reaches over to step on their lawn the guy next ro Aiden growls. The new wolf, I realise. They could be brothers. They share the same eye colour but this guy has black hair.

I distinctly hear David tell Aiden and the guy something.

"... it's you, isn't it?" He asks looking at the guy next to Aiden.

Aiden looks around and then looks at the guy next to him as if silently communicating with each other. The other guy nods and Aiden looks at Dave than Fane and me. When his eyes met mine I swear to the godess saw his eyes dilute.

"I would like you to come inside" he paused looking from me to Fane.
"And bring your guard dog" he says looking at Fane.

Fane growls and takes a step forward, and I stop him by putting my arms round his waist. I dont miss the jealousy in Aidens eyes but that doesn't stop me from stopping Fane.

Fane, please calm down. I'm with you.
I say silently pleading.

He's going to say a few things, but we need information. Please Fane.
I stare at him, my eyes pleading.

It's not me im worried about. I dont like the fact that he talks like that when you're around.
He says growling.

Well maybe you can talk to him later.
I say hating the fact that Aiden makes Fane feel insecure, especially when it comes to me.

He nods and we follow inside. To be completely honest I didn't know what i was expecting but it wasn't this. Walking inside the house the walls are white with a light blue outlining. As you walk in there is a hallway, turning left ar the rooms then turning right is the kitchen and sitting room.

I walk into the sitting room and I see two sofas lining against the wall. At the top of the sofas on the wall is a big picture of Aiden, his parents and the guy that is currently with Aiden. I smile as I remember Aidens parents and their warm smiles.

Aidens dad had bright blue eyes with dirty blonde hair. Aidens mum had black raven hair that went all the way to her waist. Aidens mum had green eyes that would twinkle when she was up to something.
I dont realise they sit down until I hear Dave clear his throat.

I sit down on the ground in between Fanes legs as they wrap around my waist. Aiden glares at Fanes legs and Dave, breaking the silence clears his throat again. I notice there is a long chair opposite the sofas which Aiden and his brother sit on.

Aiden sighs and looks at me, his eyes lost in mine.

"So, you're one of them?" He asks calmly looking at me.

Wow, ok that was not what I was expecting.

"Well, I would be lying if I said no" I say my heart beating faster and faster. Fane must have made notice because he starts to massage my shoulders and talk to me silently.

Remember what you told me outside?
I nod and Fane replies.
Well, im here for you too. Just know that.
I nod again this time standing up going to sit next to Fane and wrap my arm around his for comfort while his grip on my arm tightens.

Aiden looks at me and then at his brother.

"As you guys know or dont know I'm the new wolf in the area".  He says while I scowl, state the obvious.

We dont say anything so he takes that as a sign to continue.

"Im Benji." He says pausing to look at me.
"And you must be ... Annastasia."

"Anna, please" I say.
"No one calls me Annastasia, unless its the people close to me" I say gesturing to Fane and Dave.

At the mention of that Aiden looks up, jealousy and anger in his eyes. I know what he is gonna ask so I just sit stiff in my seat.
I notice Fane tense beside me...

"... did you go? " he blurted.

"I'm sorry?" I ask.

"Where did you go?" He repeats.

My mouth goes dry as I try to think of an excuse while tears blur my vision

Comment what you think. Should Anna have a little hissy fit or should she tell him what she has been keeping to herself all these years. Remeber my readers im open for suggestions.
