!#*Ethan's POV*#!

Our first day went by a little faster then i would have imagined it to. Soon we were escorted to the room we would be staying in, Hana had gone back to the room she previously had before she left the pack while Ben and I shared one room, i was a bit relieved to know we wouldn't be forced to be in separate rooms, but i guess it makes sense, since we were 'mates', i guess it was an unspoken rule for us to be together constantly.

but fuck it was suffocating. 

i couldn't stand being in his arms constantly, to be forced behind him whenever someone would even look at me. I didn't like this, i didn't like being treated like a dog. His possessiveness was tolerable before but ever since Claude had mentioned that i should watch out, Ben has been even more o edge then ever. 

"What are you thinking about?" his voice cut into my tense thoughts and i looked up at him and blinked to refocus my eyes on his face. i shrugged, i couldn't tell him what i was actually thinking. He would flip his shit. And would only get MORE possessive. That i could not handle. His jaw set into a stern expression on his tan face. 

"Ethan, tell me what you are thinking. Now." he spoke sternly and i couldn't help but to flinch. i hated being spoke to like that, i felt like i was in trouble, in trouble for just thinking. He noticed the flinch and his expression softened only a little. I looked away from him, i couldn't look at him when he gave me that look. I shook my head.

"I have the right to keep my thoughts to myself Skilly- Ben.." i mumbled a little defiantly, i hated how quiet i said it, but it got the point across.But his expression only hardened.

"Actually, when you are mated that's part of the deal. You tell each other everything. Especially about what you are thinking."I knew what he was saying, of course i did. But i wasn't going to do that, I'm new to this Mate thing, it didn't seem healthy for it to be that way, especially if you knew the thoughts would harm the other. But i couldn't exactly tell him why i wasn't going to tell him.  So i clenched my teeth and stayed quiet. I could practically feel the anger rolling off of him in hot tense waves.

"Ethan." he held a threatening tone that made me want to flinch and cower, but i didn't, i knew he would never hurt me. I stayed silent. I heard a growl emit from deep in his chest and this time i did flinch and shrink away from him. His eyes appeared hurt and he looked away from  me with a deep pained frown. He let out an irritated sigh.

"We should go to bed. It's late and we need all the energy we can get for whatever Claude has prepared for us tomorrow." He said with finality. I was glad he changed the subject, really glad. So I nodded and followed him into our room, it was a small classy room, sort of matching the hotel-like waiting room we stayed in, I suddenly felt like I was at some sort of depressing resort vacationing in Europe. But one thing bugged me about the room, there was only one bed. Ben walked right over and took off his shirt, beginning to change into his sleep clothes right in front of me, i felt my cheeks heat up and i turned my head away to give him more privacy, i doubt he would mind me looking. But lord knows what he would say if he seen me staring at his shirtless mostly naked body. Once he was done he laid in bed and looked over at me. I bit my lip nervously and cleared my throat.

"There's only one bed..." I mumbled and he lifted an eyebrow in a way that made me feel stupid, which sort of pissed me off.  

"Uh, Yeah? I asked for one bed, because wee are mates, and I need you as close to me as possible at all times." He stated as if I would know all that as soon as i popped out of the womb or some shit.  I glared and crossed my arms.
