>>> Plan 5: Be A Butt-Naked Prostitute Imitating Pervert

William Xaviers

She hasn’t replied. It’s been five hours and no reply. Where is she?

“Will, calm down for god’s sake.” Lacey burst out finally, glaring at Will as if she wanted to saw his head in half. Kyle who was sitting beside Will gave a thumbs up to his mate. “She will reply, she isn’t going anywhere. Girls tend to overthink, especially girls like her so she is probably talking about you to that vampire girl.”

“One simply does not call Cameron Golightly that vampire girl.” Jake stated, entering the room with a crisps packet in hand.

“Yeah yeah, whatever.” Lacey waved him off, putting on her mittens to take out the tray in the oven.

Ping.

“Mine!” I yelled out, grabbing my mobile phone viciously and opening it to see no new message sign. When I looked up with a disappointed expression, I was met with one sympathy look from my brother, one annoyed yet pitying look from my future Luna and one freaked out look from Jake.

“Cool it,  Xaviers. She’s just your mate.” Jake said, punching me on the arm to only get a growl in reply.

“Away from him, Jake. He’s a ticking time bomb right now.” Kyle stated distractedly.

It was like a time bomb set into motion. We knew that we were destined to explode…. Woah, brain, stop. Not a time for a song.

“God, he’s a pussy.” Jake mumbled, irritating me even more.

Atleast I don't have it unlike you.

“I’m going for a run.” I stated, getting up and shoving my mobile in my pocket. I needed to get my mind off of her. It was just mushy and I hated being lovey dovey and shit. If she didn’t agree to go on a date with me this month, I’m rejecting her no matter what.

You can’t do that, even I know that.

Walking out, I quickly changed out of my clothes in the bushes and shifted into my wolf. There was nothing special about my wolf with its brown coat which had light brown streaks in it. Breaking into a run, I dodged the trees, sniffing in the aroma of nature. I always loved how it felt to be a wolf, to feel as if you were in charge, the predator. Kyle had learned the ways of being an Alpha fast from our father and so had I but when my father had asked us who was ready for the responsibility, I let Kyle have it since he had always been a great leader from a very young age while I was authoritative but short-tempered like mum, Kyle was a peace keeper yet bossy when the situation called for it.

After a while, I saw some houses and I slowly made my way towards one particular house which was nearest to me. I knew I would end up there somehow but now that I was there, I felt the nervousness and the unfamiliar insecurity creep in. Her scent was clear in the surrounding as I gently walked nearer. The sun had already set so some of the lights were on in the house, my eyes darting from one to other, in search of a dark brunette until I finally spotted her in the upper left window, she was curled up by the window, and her face grim as her eyes scanned the book in front of her.  Her hair bunched up into a messy bun and her askew glasses sitting forgotten on her nose while her lips were pursed in concentration. After a while, she closed the book, her face a picture of delight as she got up and away from my sight, my wolf whined slightly but I remained in my place until I saw her again, her eyes fixated on the cell phone in her hand, her thumb caressing it’s back case as she released a sigh and typed in a quick message before shoving the phone into her pocket and moving away from the window.
