The difficult life of Caine Mckay (werewolf-boyxboy)

Chapter 12

Caine's P.O.V

Okay I take back what I said. I don't think I will be able to give hell with myself being like this. The brass door in front of me, guards me from the events that are going to be unravelled. My hands are clammy and my heart is beating right out of my chest. Forehead hot and body slightly trembling, I clamp my hand into a fist and knock. I can hear the sound echoing throughout the house and then footsteps knocking down onto the hard floor inside. The door opened with a swish and revealed a figure of a boy.

" DEREK, YOUR BOYFRIENDS HERE!" He yells looking on the direction of upstairs.  He then turns to me. "Hi I'm Romeo. Derek's better, faster and better looking brother. You are obviously Caine. It's so nice to meet you. I have been looking forward to this since Dad mentioned it. I mean I get to meet a famous Black wolf. How exciting is that? Oh oh oh can you show me what you can do. Oh please, please, please." Just as he finished his little chitter chatter rambling, I seen Derek at the top of the stairs with an amused face. When he sees me he winks which causes me to blush. Then remembering what a grade A bum face he is, I force the blush down to be replaced with a very disgusted scowl.

Looking back at Romeo, who is looking between us with with a confused expression on his face. Most likely from the lack of affection I showed to my... mate. Even just thinking about it I can't help but feel sorry for myself to be stuck with such an arrogant ass as a mate. Well ex-mate. The weird thing though is I still feel the things I should feel for a mate, when ever he is near, even though he re...re...r...didn't want me.

"Sure. I would love too. "I hesitantly reply. All though I really don't know him well enough to trust him not to tell anyone, I said yes so I wouldn't feel bad. Damn I really need to grow a back bone. " Um how about tomorrow. I'm taking someone else out to cheer them up. Why don't you come with? It will be just great." I say the last part sarcastically.

" Oh my gosh. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can't wait. This is going to be so cool. You won't even know I'm there." With a very enthusiastic shout, Romeo throws his arms around my neck. Realising he was hugging me, he jumps off and turns to Derek with fear filled eyes. Probably thinks Derek will castrate him for touching me. Boy will he be wrong. I turn to look at Derek to see his eyebrows furrowed and his face filled with frustration. He shakes him head and then grimaces in pain from the action. Wondering why he is acting like this I whisper 'go' into Romeo's ear and watch him scurry off somewhere.

"Derek? What's wrong?" I knew I was being unbelievable helping him after the way he has treated me but I feel like something is genuinely wrong. I can't explain it. It's like someone is trying to call out to me for help but isn't quite there. I shake my head thinking I'm going crazy. All of a sudden Derek's head snaps up faster than I thought was possible and I can't help but let out a small squeak full of surprise.

Derek's eyes have transformed from their usual ice blue, grey eyes  to a bright forest green. I stumble back a few steps as he steps closer, almost like I was his prey that he had finally caught. My breath catches as my back collides with a hard surface. Great. Now I'm trapped between a wall and a tall hunk. Derek soon enough traps me by putting his hands on either side of my head.

"Mate." The way he growled passionately caused my heart rate to pick up to an exceptional speed. I look into his eyes and see lust and... love? Before I can make any sound of speech, his warm lips descend onto mine. This kiss was only my second kiss in my life and by far was it better than the first. His rough, chapped lips move in sync with my soft, plump ones. His hands grip my hair to pull me closer. I moan and whimper and that causes Derek to snap out of whatever trance he was in.

His eyes widen and then he says something unexpected. "Oh gosh Caine. Caine, Caine, Caine. You have no idea how happy I am right now." His head twitches to the side a bit and I frown."Um sorry I have to hurry up. Caine I love you just so you know." Another twitch." This isn't me. Who I am. Who I'm acting to be. It's not me at all. " And another twitch. I'm starting to feel worried now. I shouldn't but he is acting so caring. So sweet and I can't help but feel a little swell of hope in my  heart.  " Something happened to me. I was young and stupid and I wish I could take it back. I really do. But I can't. Don't worry I will fix it all. I have a plan. I will be with you." He all but gushes out.

"Derek. Hold up. I don't understand. What do you mean?" I say worried that he is going crazy.

"Caine oh gosh. There... there...is this thing....this horrible, horrible thing. I don't know how or what but there is..." He stops all of a sudden and shakes his head. He grips his hair and stumbles back.

I stand there shocked beyond word. I don't know what is happening and I'm honestly scared. He looks up t me and I see him mouth 'I'm sorry' before his eyes go back to the icy blue I knew so well.

He looks angry and frustrated and shocked. He looks at me steps forward and SWINGS. His fist connects with my stomach and I immediately hunch over doubling in pain. My eyes screw shut and my hands clench and take fistfuls of my shirt. I wheez and splutter and cough and choke. He goes for another one when we hear voices heading into the lounge which is where we are now.

Derek quickly pulls me into him and starts to rub my back almost soothingly, almost threatening.

"Um okay wasn't expecting that were we darling." A soft feminine voice sounds out. Derek pulls back from the awkward embrace and spins around to face the new comers.

"Mum, Dad this is Caine. Caine this is my Mum and Dad." Derek introduces his parents to me almost smugly.

"It's nice to meet you both." I say as I shake his Dad's hand.

I go to shake his mothers when I'm taken of guard. Her long, slender arms embrace me and I hear little sniffles. Confused and shocked I look at Derek's father and plead with my eyes practically begging him to help. He just shakes his head and puts up one finger signaling I should wait.

"It"s so nice to meet you too. I can't believe my little Derek found a mate. A special one at that. Please call me Jenna. My husband is Michael." At hearing that name I choke and look wide eyed.

"Oh my are you all right. Did I say something?" Jenna panics patting my back with little slaps.

"Uh yeah. It's just that that was my fathers name." I say awkwardly shuffling my feet side to side not liking where this was going. Sure I don't remember my parents that well I still wish I had them. Jeff is great. It's just that I do miss them and I sometimes wish they were still here.

"Was? Oh I'm so sorry dear. I didn't know." She gushes out.

"It is quite alright. It was a very long time ago."I mumble suddenly feeling guilty for making her feel guilty.

Drawing the attention away, Michael speaks up.

"Why don't we go have dinner now. Romeo is already in there and Naomi is just upstairs. "

We walk into the dining room and take a seat. A huge grin forms on Romeo's face when he sees me and starts waving frantically. Naomi comes down not long after and I get acquainted with her. She is quite charming and we easily talk to each other.

                                           ~~~~~~

After dinner I excuse myself and head home saying Jeff needed me at home. I say my goodbyes and leave.  When I'm outside walking down the driveway, Derek walks out and stands threateningly in front of me.

"If you ever kiss me again, I will beat the living crap out of you. Mate." With a final hatred filled glare he turns and walk away.

I am left standing alone and confused. He kissed me. Not the other way. I have one thought in my head.

He must be bipolar. Idiot.
