Human

Thirty-Five

"Bella. You cheated." Cane tried to reason while Atlas looked at our banter with an amused expression.

"I did not! You just can't accept you suck." He looked offended then snickered. "Bells. I've been playing Call Of Duty since I was seven years old. I'm pretty sure I do not suck." He winked.

Now it was Atlas' time to snicker. "You might not suck but you definitely are not aware that the game didn't exist when you were seven." I looked at Cane, he looked like a deer caught in headlights.

I started laughing lightly, then started making whale noises, and then bent over with my mouth open and no sounds coming out. "What's so funny?" Cane laughed too while Atlas just looked at me.

"I- I don't know." I spoke starting to laugh again. "Did you get her drunk? Really Atlas? Can't keep your mate away from alcohol for a day? She seems perfect for you." A deep voice chuckled behind me.

I stopped laughing and turned around, to find a brown skinned man, not far from Atlas' and Cane's age, leaning against the doorway looking at me with an amused expression.

"Hello?" I spoke not knowing what to say. He seems to be a pack member. I need to practice meeting people.

"Hello, Luna." He bowed slightly. "Um, I'm Bella." I smiled lightly at him. Being called Luna seems so foreign, I don't think I'll ever get used to that.

He beamed at me "I'm Jonathan." He had a cute grin and a dimple in his left cheek. His head was shaved, and muscles were bulging from his white shirt.

"So, you're not drunk?" I shook my head. "I just laugh at the most random things." I smiled cheekily.

He shook his head. "Great start, Luna." He said sarcastically. I furrowed my brows, and realization ht his face. "No, I didn't mean it like that!" He defended himself. "I like saying the truth in a sarcastic way. I mean, laughing and being happy for a Luna is a must. You'll bring joy into people just by laughing like you did with me." He smiled again.

"That's it." Two strong arms pulled me into a hard chest and growled, causing me to feel a vibration through my whole body.

"Enough flirting with my mate Johnathan!" I rolled my eyes "He was just being nice." I mumbled playing with the hem of my shirt.

"You're too innocent." Cane said shaking his head. I narrowed my eyes at him "I'm not. Do you really want me to start saying the things I di-" another loud growl was heard and my body shook. I would have fallen if Atlas' arms weren't so tight around me.

"Stop." He breathed. "Stop talking." His hands tightened around me.

My brows furrowed. "Why?" His hands tightened around me to the point where it was almost painful.

"Just.. Just stop." I nodded "Fine, but get your arms off me I'm almost in pain." His hands immediately loosened from around me, but remained on my waist.

Ahem, attention please. So I got a week more of school then a month off. I will be publishing then and hope you understand when I say updates will be late.

Thank you, xoxo
