My Little Love (Discontinued)

His hands held onto my arms tightly, locking me in place as his rough lips collided against my surprised ones, but I couldn't stop my eyes from closing shut at his touch, the sweet burning feeling of tingles.

My eyes fluttered open as he pulled back, my fingers instantly reaching up to touch my lips as I stared at him, a stare that quickly turned into a glare as soon as I came out of whatever love sick trance I lost myself in. Stumbling over my words, I got out, "That-That was my first kiss!"

"That's good to hear," he whispered with a soft smile, almost like he wasn't paying attention, as he hovered over me with his lips just a breath away from my own and his eyes searching mine.

"You can-can't do that a-again," I mumbled and could still feel the wet tears dribbling down my cheeks, "you-you just can't."

It's just the mate pull, I reminded myself, humans aren't even supposed to have them.

"Please, Amoret, just let me explain," he begged, his smile falling as a frown formed on his lips, and placed his hands against my cheeks, both of his thumbs rubbing away my tears as they continued to slowly fall.

The word slipped past my lips, "Okay."

I kicked my feet as I was sat down on the same bed I woke up in, the bedroom I recently learned was actually Kaius's room. My short legs couldn't reach the ground, so I kept kicking them to calm my nerves as I watched Kaius pace back and forth in front of me with his hand continuously running through his dark brown hair.

Sniffling as I kept my eyes on my feet that I couldn't see as they were being covered with the long dress, the one I never bothered to get changed out of, he finally stopped moving and took a step towards me, I could see his feet clad in black shoes step in front of me.

I watched as he bent down to go on his knees, his hands going to hold mine as he looked up at me with pleading eyes. "I swear that I can explain what he was talking about, I can, Amoret."

"Ex-Explain," I whimpered, silently cursing myself for not being able to hold in my feelings, to not being able to stop myself from crying.

Mama always tells me I shouldn't cry.

Watching as he opened his mouth then closed it, I could practically see the gears in his head turning as I continued watching him try to figure out what to say, how to explain.

"It wasn't meant to happen, Amoret. I didn't go there with the intent to kill him, I went there to get you," he spoke with his eyes looking into mine as though he was begging me to understand.

He kept going, "Kendrick is right, okay, he was being honest when he told you of what I did. I was unstable, I know that and I knew that then, but I couldn't help myself. I wanted-" he shook his head,"-I needed to see you."

"Why did you do it?" I sobbed, "You didn't have to kill him, r-right?"

His eyes looked down as he ignored my question and replied with another, "I can tell you everything that happened, right from the beginning, only if you want?"

"Yes," I answered quietly. No matter how bad.

"I was thirteen-" he shuffled to get closer to me, moving his upper body between my legs so that my legs were pressed against his sides, "-I had only recently shifted, and I didn't have the best way of keeping my wolf tame, he was there, and he always knew how to takeover. I wasn't in complete control yet and everyone was telling me that going for runs, staying in nature, that it would help. As soon as I was deep enough in the woods I could feel you, all of a sudden something in the air changed and as I got closer to you, it got stronger, and I couldn't stop myself."
