A Shifter Among Wolves

Chapter 19

            

---Paige's POV---

Ever had that moment where you could look at a guy and just know what he thinks because it's all over his face? Well that's what I was feeling when I stared at Jacob's drooling expression before I shuddered. Yuck! He's drooling! Well, technically it was his wolf but still, Ew!

"I'm going to take a shower because I feel so dirty right now." I said while I shot a glare at Jacob, who smiled innocently at me. I turned back to the Alphas and said "And then, we are going to have a long conversation about my kind and this.... mating season thing." I couldn't control the shiver that crawled over my spine.

"What's there to explain? It's mating season, meaning that you mate with your mate." Jacob smirked while he walked closer to me, nose still twitching. I scowled at him; did he really think that, just because my body would go haywire for a while, I would willingly mate with him? After everything that he put me through?

I smirked internally when a plan popped in my head and I saw Nick at the edge of the yard giving me the thumbs up. "Go get him." Nick whispered reassuringly in my head, earning himself a wink before I turned my attention to Jacob, who was wagging his tail off while he had a dreamy expression. Disgusting!

"Well..." I purred slightly while I walked around Jacob, making sure that my tail swished under his nose while I rubbed my side against his. His whole body tensed as his jaw dropped open, staring at me while his eyes were turning black with lust. Stepping out of his view, I knew what his reaction would be; he would spin around to watch me closely.

So, when he spun around, I jumped on his back, forcing him to the ground while I growled menacingly. "Take a good, long look Jacob because if you would even think for a second that you were allowed in my pants..." I dug my claws in his back until he released a small whine. "...Then you can forget about it!" I snapped before I jumped up and shifted in my owl and flew towards my room.

Adrianna was sitting on my bed when I came out of the shower. She smiled shyly at me while I trotted around with a towel around me and my soaking hair stuck on my back. I felt self-conscious around others, but tried to act indifferent. Smiling softly at her, I ruffled with a smaller towel through my hair while I said, "You need anything?"

She sighed before she started "I just want to apologize; I never intended to try and steal your mate away. Jacob never mentioned finding his mate and then he started acting...odd." She took a deep breath and tried to explain further but I interrupted her, waving my hand in the air while I snuffed through my closet.

"Adrianna, I don't blame you...anymore." I added truthfully. "Besides, it takes two to land in a bed together." She smiled at me, but it was a sad smile. Before she could say anything, my bedroom door sprang open and I zipped in the bathroom, cursing profanely.

"There's a little something called PRIVACY!" I screamed from the top of my lungs while I practically jumped in my clothes. My glare was aimed at Emilie, Grace and Amy, who were sitting on my bed, snickering and barely holding back from rolling over the floor in laughter.

Amy was a she-wolf and a very good friend of mine; she was always the first to help me prank Tyler and I was starting to suspect that she would be his mate. Grace on the other hand, was a single she-wolf. The four of them were grinning at me like idiots while I threw on a comfy hoodie.

"What are you guys plotting? You better not plan to prank me." I said but they shook their heads. "Nope," Emilie said, " We are planning a movie night." She glanced at the clock above my door before she added "Tonight."
