Chapter 12- Explore

School was over. Today was the last day and I haven't seen Kael since he returned my bag and car to me. I managed to hide my vehicle from the three, but Natalie found out and I had to tell them a friend lent it to me while he was away. A lie, obviously, but I managed to make is sound as if it was the truth.

Chad had been coming over more often, almost every dinner he would be with us. He and I hardly spoke, but when we did, I couldn't decipher why I felt nervous around him or why i always wondered what it would feel like to kiss him. I couldn't control my thoughts. I didn't know why. Somehow, something deep inside of me told me that Kael might be able to answer my questions, but that wasn't the only reason why I wanted to see him again. In such little time, with only a few encounters that I had with him, my emotions ran wildly. But I didn't want to believe any of the feelings that I felt towards him were rational.

He was a stranger, barely known to me, I hardly even knew what he liked and disliked, and yet I continue to fall. Falling wouldn't be a problem, except I wasn't falling physically. I was falling emotionally, for him. A stranger; someone I barely knew. This wasn't sanity, but, he isn't sanity. He's a mystery; the one thing I don't easily ignore.

I didn't know what possessed me to be here, but there was no turning back now. I was back at the forest where I last saw the wolf. Dressed in jeans, a shirt and my sneakers, I walked forward, breaking sticks and cracking leaves as I did. I looked up to be greeted by light from the sun covered by the leaves and branches of the trees. My gaze went back down and I only managed to take one step forward when I saw a figure up ahead, not too far from me.

"Isn't it a surprise to see you here?" he said

"Demetrio" was my confused reply "what are you doing here?"

"We should be asking you that question" spoke another voice from behind me

I turned and saw Nicholas. The hairs on my arms and on the nape of my neck rose

"Tell me, Jaymes" spoke Nicholas, his eyes looking directly into my own; trapping me in "what are you to Kael?"

I was so drawn into his eyes, I couldn't think of anything else and I felt as if I could obey his every command. But, as if in a trance, I took grip of reality and I looked in Demetrio's direction. He only grinned and in a blink, he was directly next to me.

I gaped at him "How-"

"We aren't like them, Jaymes" said Nicholas, from directly behind me all of a sudden, his lips at my ear "we aren't human"

I stood, still as stone. My skin was sensitive to their movements; aware of what they could do to me in a deserted place as where we were standing now. Nicholas traced a finger down my bare elbow to my wrist, leaving a trail of warmth where he touched.

"What are you to the alpha blood, Jaymes?" Demetrio whispered, pulling out a blade from his left side with his right hand

I was about to scream, when Nicholas placed his right hand with a handkerchief on my mouth and secured me against him with his left arm around my midrib; securing both my arms. I wriggled, but he only held tighter.

"Easy, Dim, what are you making her see?" asked Nicholas, very calmly from directly behind me

Demetrio only smiled, taking my left wrist and pointing the knife on the vein there, making me stop wriggling and stay completely still, my screaming barely audible behind Nicholas' hand.
