Erick Shaw's POV

This one week Cara hadn't left my side for anything. She followed me around even if she didn't have to. I can't say that I don't like it cause I do. She would read or scroll through her phone but she would be wherever I was except during classes. Even then she would be mind-linking me.

"Cara, you gotta stop with the touchy hands all over Erick. Poor boy is trying to eat" the Alpha said. Everyone around the table laughed at that comment.

I smiled at her as she pouted but grudgingly went to sit straight and ate in silence.

'I don't like not touching you' she mind-link me. I almost choked on my food trying not to laugh.

Is it me or has she become more adorable this last week. And more cuddly, more touchy, more sexu-

Walking through the door was the night shift guards as they invaded the kitchen to eat and head out for their beds. I almost zoned out staring at Cara but was saved by the gentlemen.

Unknowingly one of them bumped into Cara probably out of exhaustion and spilt orange juice on her. He also unintentionally touched her shoulder and thigh that had the orange juice on in a panic state saying sorry.

But that touch sets me off.

In a second, I was off the chair and held the man by the neck. Growling at him.

"How dare you hit her and touch her?!" I growled.

"Erick calm down!" Cara persuaded me.

She tried pulling me but I didn't budged.

"Erick Shaw, as your Alpha I'm asking you to stay calm. It was an accident" the Alpha's voice knocked some sense to me.

I realized what I was doing and I dropped the guard down. "I'm sorry" I said embarrassed and ashamed I would act like that.

Looking over Cara I see that she was unharmed and I made my way out. After the marking I had been more restless and more anxious to protect Cara even from a damn fly.

I headed over at my house and went straight to my room.

All this emotions are running wild.

"Erick?"

When I saw Cara I just can't help it and attacked her. Pushing her on my bed I climbed on top of her and kissed her senseless.

My teeth grew sharp but I kissed her hard still until she hissed in pain and pushed me away. "What the hell Erick?!".

I blinked as I tasted her blood on my lips but her small wound was already healed in seconds. "I'm sorry I-I just uh I... I don't know" I stuttered. She sighs. "Try and explain to me and I will try to understand".

"I've just been really edgy and too anxious all the time to protect you. My emotions are just all over. And like when I kissed you just now I felt like I was not in control. It's hard to explain"

She smiled as she motioned me to sit next to her. "Well that is normal if you actually try and listen when they teach you about our kind. The male ones will always feel like that towards their partner. Their partner will form an emotional attachment and they will have to be everywhere you go even if they don't necessarily have to be there. Once we complete the mating it will be more intense but it will mellow down soon after. It's called as the human would say 'the heat of the moment' lol" she said like it was nothing.

I thought some males were just temperamental but it's actually normal. Should have paid more attention when they teach you something. And now I'm like that towards Cara.

Added to the fact that people have been threatening me here and there my feelings were all over. I haven't tell Cara anything. She has better things to do than worry about the threat. She was my mate and the mating was half complete.

"Sorry"

"There's nothing to be sorry about. How about we shift and get that negativity out of you" she pulled me out.

I look at how she brings herself. I don't know if it's because she's my mate but bruhh she looked like an angel floating and just walking on thin air like she was nothing. I was mesmerized.

The correct word is probably love, said a small voice inside me.

As I shifted mid air with her we ran like there was no tomorrow.

I could feel the stress leaving my body. Feeling the air hitting my face. The feel of earth underneath my paws as I hit it.

Everything was all fun and games until I saw four big ass wolves charging at us. Before I could react two of them jumped on Cara.

Another two jumped on me and the impact of my body was hard on the ground. I could hear my whimpers and growls trying to free myself from the pain.

From my place I could see Cara struggling viciously with the wolves. In a blink of an eye one of the wolves turned back into a human. He quickly hooked his arms around Cara's neck and suffocating her while the other wolf was on top of her as she lays on her back and biting her front right leg.

But I couldn't move. I was being bitten from all sides and clawed on. Cara was anxious as she saw me but slowly she fades away.

I begin to see darkness consumed me but I heard a crack and a painful sensation passed through me but I was out before I knew it.
