Taya's POV

   We go up in the elevator in silence and I'm silently praying that the bitch from earlier isn't still in the room. As we walk towards the door I start to feel a lump in my throat. The door opens just as Jesse reaches it. And what do ya know. Of course the bitch was still there waiting for him like a little wolf puppy. 

   "Jasmine, hi. Is anything the matter", Jesse says looking at her. 

   "No, I just had to talk to you for a minute if you don't mind", she says and looks at me and smiles. She smiled at me! She's fake on top of being a bitch.

   "Yes okay", Jesse looks at me and walks me into the room. "I'll be right back, okay", he says but I lay down on the bed and ignore him. 

   He walks out of the room and stays out talking to the bitch- Jasmine for a couple of minutes. I'm extremely upset and embarrassed now. I go into the shower and clean my body with some men's body wash silently crying when I hear him open the door to the room. I know that he knows I'm in the shower and he leaves me alone to finish. I towel off and put on a night gown. start running the tap to brush my teeth when he unlocks the door from the outside and walks in. 

   "Hey, that's my job princess", he says taking the toothbrush from my hand. 

   I look at him and curse the world for sending me such an attractive man. 

   "Hey, why so sad. I'm sorry for how I acted at dinner. I just- werewolves are extremely possessive and my wolf didn't like seeing you enjoying another males company so much. I wish I wouldn't have hurt your feelings though", he says and sets the toothbrush down on the sink.

   I stare at my fingers trying to find the right words to say and the right questions to ask. "When did you find out that you would have a mate", I ask. 

   "Um, I guess I've just always kind of known. It's not a secret or anything. Most werewolves grow up with mated parents so you just are told very early in life", he says and it breaks my heart even more. 

   "So I wasn't worth waiting for", I ask feeling a little choked up. 

   Jesse's mouth drops open a little as if he's about to say something then he stops. "I- Never. No You are worth more than anything in this life. I promise", he says. 

   "No I'm not and apparently I'm not even worth having a mate that isn't a massive whore. How many girls have you fucked? Am I just one name in a book full of girls you've managed to trick into bed. Who am I kidding of course I am. You want to know something? Yesterday was my first kiss and I gave it to you. A man I barely know because I felt something. But oh fucking well. I'm nothing to you. I'm just going to go-" I say right as he cuts me off.

   "First off you're not going anywhere, secondly please for goodness sakes watch your fucking mouth. And you mean everything to me don't you dare tell me how I feel about you. You want to know how I feel about you?", he grabs my arms although firmly but still gentle and gets on his knees. He turns into his wolf and immediately I'm hit by a rush of.. of- I don't even know what. Emotion? It's like his wolf is sending me all of this emotion and it feels like utter joy, admiration, appreciation and..love? It couldn't be love but it feels a lot like it. 

   I fall to my knees and hug my wolf. I cry at the intensity of these emotions and rub his fur. My mate feels this for me? I cry and hold him until I'm holding a naked man kneeling in a pile of shredded clothes. 

   "Please don't question my feelings for you. It makes me insanely angry", he says quietly holding my still shaking body. "I'm sorry that I didn't wait. You have to understand that I was going through a hard time. My parents died and I hadn't found my mate which I was expecting to find when I was 18. I started because I felt lonely and then I just had girls there. They threw themselves at me and of course I could have said no, but I had no real tangible reason to babydoll. I would never cheat on you ever! You are it for me. I can't change my past and I'm sorry for that, but please don't let it change our future. I need you with me baby", he said holding our foreheads together. 

   "I know. I knew you weren't a virgin. I just didn't realize how busy you have been and I was scared to be used and abandoned", I said feeling sad at my reaction. "What was that", I asked.

   "It was my wolf communicating our emotions to you. My wolf can't really speak to you and I can't mind link with you until you are marked and it was the only way I could think to prove to you how I felt without marking you", he answered. 

   "That was the most intense thing I've ever felt", I said. "I'm sorry I called you a whore". 

   "You are forgiven come on sweetheart let's go down to the movie room and watch something until you fall asleep", he picked me up again and carried me out the door. 

   "Am I ever going to be allowed to walk anywhere", I asked semi-sarcastically. 

   "No, but you know what you are allowed to do", he asked. 

   "What", I say.

  He smirked down at me, "Come watch a movie with me until you fall asleep".

  He took me to the room and that's exactly what we did.
