My Girl

~Chapter Ten~

I kissed her. I finally grew some fucking balls and did it. I will always remember the day when I finally realized I was in love with Samantha Lodges, because it hit me like a tone of bricks.

It was when we went skinny dipping in her neighbors pool. When we stripped down to nothing, I didn't even bat an eye to see her naked. But when I saw her smile the way she did that night, I couldn't get it out of my mind. She was just so beautiful that I couldn't help but look at her body. Her legs were so soft, that I wanted to just run my fingertips against them. I wanted to feel her hair in my hands and my lips on hers, I stopped breathing.

I felt my wolf rise out of my chest as she slipped her bra off. I saw her entire body that day, all of her adorable flaws and the gleaming in her eyes. It made me smile, seeing how happy she was.

Samantha made me feel different inside. I felt my heart pound in my chest and my stomach flutter with anticipation. I wanted more than just another fuck from a girl, I wanted a relationship. And that scared me.

I shouldn't feel this way until I found my mate. I shouldn't feel this towards my best friend. But I can't find a way to stop myself. Maybe I have found my soul mate. Maybe I have found the woman I am destined to be with the rest of my life. I grew excited that I found her. I found my mate. I actually found her and she was with me all along.

When I found out Samantha had another mate, I couldn't help but defend what was mine. I also couldn't help but kiss her. The need to kiss her was so strong I lost my mind and finally did it. She didn't even pull back, she let me kiss her. She let my fingers dance across her hips and stomach. I wanted nothing more then to go farther, but I knew better. I had to let Samantha sleep and think over what just happened.

I have found that Samantha is a thinker. She over thinks things all the time because she is naïve and is self-conscious about her body and decisions. That bastard, Blake, destroyed her only self confidence that was left in her teenage body. I hated that mutt so bad, I killed him. When I was gone from Samantha for so long, I was tracking down that asshole and killed him. That's when I met Max and found he was a really nice guy. I stayed with him for a short while and soon missed my girl. I needed to see her to make sure she was alright. I didn't find out her parents had died until about a month later. I was talking to one of her distant cousins and found out the news. I left that night and drove until I found her. It didn't take long because I could smell her scent anywhere in the world, all I have to do is follow it.

She was absolutely gorgeous when I found her. Her hair was shinny and her eyes brighter than they usually were. She looked so alive and sure of herself then, but I found it was all an act.

The girl was an excellent actress. She could fake a smile and not have one person point out the fact she was an absolute mess. Only the closest people to her, me and her parents could find the broken girl underneath. I am glad I found her when I did because she needs me now. I need her as well and I was fine with that.

Samantha stirred in my arms as she cried in her sleep. I knew she was having another bad dream. They didn't come often, but when they did, they were pretty bad. They all involved Blake, which made my blood boil just thinking about the runt.

I reached over her and turned her around so her body was facing me again. I saw the smallest hint of tears on her cheeks which I wiped away with my thumb.

Her face turned into something so sad I pulled her closer to me to comfort her. She began to shake, becoming restless as the bad dream consumed her.

"Samantha," I whispered as I forced her face into my chest.

She tried pulling away but I wouldn't have it. I had to comfort her.
