"I caught his scent from the moment i got here. No ma'am. Im waiting for him to finish up than he's giving me a ride. Basketball. Ok ok and aint no one fucking. Mates or not. Ill take care of him when i get there. " I say talking to my mother as i sit on the bleachers waiting for Rome to be finished when i hear the whistle blow signaling the end of practice.
It was me and few other girls in the bleachers watching the guys varsity team. A few of them i over hear talking about Rome and how he's fair game and how some chick named Yasmine was stupid for letting him slip through her fingers right when he was gonna make it official. Lucky for me.
Rome starts walking my way in nothing but basketball shorts and a sports bra. Abs glistening from the sweat. Fuck! I dont know about that no fucking thing. My eyes roaming his body slowly eye fucking him as stop at the imprint in his shorts moving my eyes back up his body before he notices.
This random ass chick walks up to him causing him to stop and talk to her. I just watch them intently as that inner being in me wanted to rip her to shreds. But I keep her at bay, thankfully I have more control than she does. She trys to reach for him but he backs up causing me to smile slightly.
I try my best to not allow my heightened hearing to pick up their heated conversation.
"Brittany right?" Rome's friend Lincoln? Lyles? I cant remember what the hell this dudes name is
"Yes. And you're?" I ask trying not to sound rude or anything
"It's Lincoln. Like the car..."
"Hahaha. Nice name"
"Thanks. Anyways... You're his mate aren't you?" He asks me bluntly
"Yea I am. But how did you know? I mean I don't think he realizes it"
"He probably doesn't. He's never been apart of a pack well not since he was a pup. So he only knows what his mom has taught him about being who and what he is. Be patient. I could tell by the way you both looked at one another it was as if both you and your wolves had become one. He's different you know. But I love that kid to death so don't do anything to hurt him." he tells me and I just nod about to respond when I hear "see that's why the fuck I never made shyt official with your crazy ass!" And than she slapped him and before I could do anything he starting growling.
I don't know if it was out of instinct or the mate bond, but before I even realized it I was in between the two of them keeping myself under control because I saw he was loosing his control. Lincoln was right behind Rome trying to advert his attention but we both knew he wouldn't hurt me, I just had this gut feeling he wouldn't.
"YOU NEED TO GO NOW!" I semi yelled at the girl who was still in front of me. I know I moved at an unnatural speed and she was honestly trying to figure out where I came from.
"Bitch what?" she says after a few seconds and I'm just glaring at her trying not to lose the little control I have.
"Yasmine go! NOW!" Lincoln says causing her to huff and stomp off saying something about us being punk ass bitches. Who knows.
I turn and look at Rome and he's on the brink of shifting. His eyes are those of his wolfs and his claws are slowing extending. I motion for Lincoln to force him over to the bleachers. Once he's done that he wishes me luck saying that he's not the easiest to control when he gets to this point. And he walks off leaving just me and my mate in the gym alone.
He tried to stand up but I pushed him back down and straddled his waist. I look into his eyes, which are still of his wolf, and there is not a doubt in my mind that he is mine. I can feel my wolf making her presence known once again. And my eyes have probably changed.
