The Prey

Chapter 12

                                                   Jaxon's POV

   I woke up early and Skye and I where tangled. Our legs where wove together. Her head rested on my chest. The electricity coursing through my body as our bare skin touched. I just stared at her. She was utterly gorgeous. I always thought she was. I just thought that I would mate with Amber. She's been getting on my nerves the past few weeks. Always whining about Skye. After the oracle had her little private chat with me I broke up with Amber. If the moon goddess wants Skye and I together why fight it. The dream she had and her ribs set my wolf into protection mode. I wont let anyone hurt her again. I untangled myself from her when I heard a scream.

  Skye jumped when her door flew open and a very pissed off Amber came in. 

 "What the hell happened to you" I said as I took her in. I looked at Skye who was desperately trying not to laugh. Amusement clear in her eyes.

  "You bitch" Amber yelled trying to get to Skye. "You did this to me. FIX IT NOW" she yelled as she leaped towards Skye. 

  Skye was laughing at this point while I looked confused. Amber had no hair. She was always so proud of her hair.

  "I can't" Skye said as she fell out of the bed. "I only wished you would lose your hair and grow warts for being such a twatwaffle to me. I never expected it to happen." She said laughing so hard she was in tears. She stood up and Amber attacked. I watched in wonder as Skye easily fended her off. My wolf was proud as was I. We had a strong mate. I should have seen it earlier.  My mom came running into the room. "Stop this now" She commanded with her Luna tone.

  "What is going on" My mom asked.

  "That bitch put a curse on me and I lost all my hair." Amber cried. My mom looked at Skye with amusement in her eyes. 

  "Is that true Skye" She said trying to be serious.

  "Well no but I guess yes. She told me Jaxon was hers and I couldn't have him. Shes been trying to bully me ever since I got here but she is more like an annoying mosquito or maybe a small yapping dog. I told her that I wish her hair would fall out and she would grow warts. And well you can see for yourself." she finished pointing to Amber.

  Amber ran out of the room in hysterics swearing she would get revenge. All I could do was stare at my mate with pride. Don't get me wrong though she now scares me. I will have to be careful around her if all she has to do is say something and it happens.

  "We have to leave. The ladies that are going to help you learn to control your powers will meet us at our pack. How are your ribs?" my mom asked.

  Skye lifted her shirt and I unwrapped the bandages. "Good as new" Skye said with a smile. 

  "Good, Breakfast will be ready soon then we can leave to go to the pack." she said as she left the room.

                                            Ambers POV

That bitch is going to pay. She stole my man, took my Luna position and now made me lose my hair. I will get her back. She will die for what she has done. I will kill her myself. I said as I stormed into my room.

                                            Skye's POV

I made my way down to breakfast with my bag. I hope we can take our car. I start it everyday but we haven't been able to drive it. I stop dead in my tracks as I look at Skyler." What the hell happened to your neck?" I whisper yelled at her. She blushed and pulled me into an empty room.

  "Its called being marked. Its the first step to being mates." She said. "OMG what did you do Skyler" She blushed again. "We haven't finished the process yet, but now I can talk to Brett and I feel safer knowing I can incase something happens." She rushed out. I looked at her neck again. "Did it hurt" I asked. "Yes at first then well it was the most wonderful feeling" she finished. 

  Well shit I thought. I looked her in the eyes "Does Jaxon have to do that to me" I asked in horror. "Eventually, It will help them to feel what we feel and if we get taken or something they will have a better chance of finding us" She said. Damnit to hell I thought. We made out way into the kitchen to eat breakfast.

  After we cleaned up we hopped into out old trusty beetle. Brett and Jaxon both rode with us. I told them they didn't have to but they insisted. I was driving for about an hour when the car started sputtering. Damn it I thought as I pulled over. 

 "What's going on" Skyler asked. 

 "I think its the head gasket" I replied as I got out. I opened the trunk to the engine and water was sputtering out from the gasket. "Damnit" I muttered as I walked to the front of the car to get my tools.

  "What are you doing" Jaxon asked.

  "Fixin my baby" I replied.

  "Do you want me to call a tow truck and have it taken to a mechanic." he asked.

  Skyler and Brett had gotten out of the care. She started laughing when she saw the look on my face. "Umm Jaxon" she giggled "Skye can fix it. She has all the spare parts in the car" Jaxon looked confused as I stuck my head into the trunk and pulled out what I needed. I walked back around to the engine and started taking the head gasket apart to put a new ring on it. I will have to eventually get a new one. After I put everything back together we climbed back in and headed towards our new pack. Jaxon and Brett stayed silent the rest of the trip thankfully.

Once we arrived I just stared at all the people who where standing in front of a stage that held Mark and Grace as well as a couple other people. I started getting nervous. Skyler grabbed my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. "We are going to be ok" She whispered to me. She walked over to Brett and grabbed his hand and started to walk with him towards the stage. I wish I could be as confident as her I thought as I followed. Jaxon walked up and grabbed my hand sending electric shocks through my arm and a horde of butterflies fluttering though my stomach. 

  When we made it to the stage Mark began. "Today we are gathered together to welcome two new member's to our pack." He motioned Skyler and I to join him on the stage and we did. "Skyler and Skye Morgan wish to join our pack and I have accepted. They will go through the trials in one hour." The crowd cheered. Its going to be a very long day I thought to myself as my nerves started getting worse.
