Athena Bradley.

"I love you."Colton pecked my lips. I smiled.

"I love you too."I said and gave him a quick hug before walking to class. It a a couple of days after the whole fall out with Ella. She stopped talking to me and so has almost everyone in this school. Everyone thinks I stole Ella's mate and cheated on Colton saying he is all around me because my family is forcing him to.

I am now named the school whore even though I'm a virgin and Colton is my first boyfriend. I only go to school because Colton keeps telling me to. Today he had to drag me to the car.

I walked inside my first class. Girls glared at me and comforted Ella. Guys smirked and winked at me. I wanted to break down right here and now. I took a seat at the back and the guy next to me winked.

"Wanna come by my room today? Alpha Colton doesn't have to know."He smirked. I got up and ran out of the room. I walked out of the school and ran into the woods. I leaned against a tree and started sobbing. I sunk down to the floor, putting my hands to me eyes and my knees to my chest. Everyone hates me.

I stayed by that tree for an hour and finally got up. I remembered I left my bags and things in the classroom. I'm not going back to school. I decided to just continue walking into the forest. Stupid right but there's just something about the forest that keeps me calm. I passed a small pond and looked at my reflection. My eyes were red and I had tear stains on my cheeks. I glared at my reflection and dropped my glare.

Sighing, I continued walking. Birds were chirping. I could hear water dripping. I heard a twig and my eyes snapped to the direction. There stood the dark brown wolf I saw weeks ago. He stalked towards me. I walked towards it and crouched down a bit. It bowed it's head. I ran my hand through its soft fur. I somewhat felt safe with the wolf.

"Who are you?"I asked titling my head staring at its blue eyes. It shook its head. I sighed.

"Okay but what's your name?"It rolled its eyes at me and cracked a smile.

"Sorry, I forgot you can't talk.Hmmmm...I think I'm gonna call you Blue because of your eyes."I stroked my hand through its hair.

I spent the whole day with Blue. Just running around and laughing. He led me out of the forest and near the pack house.

I waved goodbye and walked the rest of the way to the pack house. I walked through the door and there sat Colton on the couch with tears in his eyes. He shot up once he saw me.

"Where were you?"He yelled angrily. I flinched. His face soften and he pulled me into a hug. His parents and my parents sat on the couch to. They all looked worried.

"What happened, sweetie?"My mother reached out to me but Colton growled at her which made he back away.

"What is he doing?"My mother asked his mother, confused.She smiled.

"Since she has been away he is protective over her and doesn't want anyone to touch her but him. This will only last a couple of hours."She explained. Mom nodded."We should all leave. He will get angry if anyone is around. We should let them be for a while."

His grip on my tighten and he throw me of his shoulder. He walked up the stairs and I looked up and waved at the parents. They were smiling and laughing at us. They disappeared from my view as walked into his bedroom that was on the top floor. He threw me on his bed and hovered above me.

"I missed you."He kissed the mark. I moaned and gripped his hair.

"I missed you too."I sighed. He unbuttoned my jeans and pulled them off. He took off his shirt and mine. He kissed my stomach and trailed down. He unbuttoned his jeans. I knew where this was going and I didn't want it to stop.

He stopped by my underwear. He looked up at me as if asking me for permission. I don't know why but I nodded. He pulled down my panties and positioned himself into me. He took one of my legs and wrapped it around his waist, his hand gripping my thigh.

--

It hurt a bit at first but the pain went away. Colton dropped his head on my sweaty chest and my hand gripped his soft brown hair. He rolled over and laid next to me. He pulled me close to him and wrapped his arm around me.

"I love you. That wasn't how I planned our first time to be." He muttered into my hair. I smiled against his chest.

"I love you too."I said. After a few minutes, I sat up covering my chest with the covers.

"Where are you going?"He asked.

"I'm gonna take a shower."I winced at the pain in between my thighs. He looked at me with a worried expression.

"Are you okay?"He asked. My face heated up and I looked away from his eyes.

"I-umm..it hurts."I blushed. His worried expression changed into a smirked as he wiggled his eyebrows at me. I smacked his arm which had no effect on him as he just laughed at me. I pouted.

"I'm sorry, baby."He chuckled and rubbed my shoulder. I scowl him and slapped his hand away from me.

"Seriously. It hurts."I whined. He chuckled and got up, not covering his nakedness. I looked anywhere but him. He walked to the bathroom and I heard the water running. In a few minutes it stopped and he walked into the room still naked.

I glanced at his abs and looked away. He picked me up and I tried to cover myself up. He brought me into the bathroom and put me, gently into the large tub. The bubbles hid my body from his view.

The hot water calmed down the pain and my muscles relaxed. He hopped in with me and I sat in between his legs, leaning against his hard chest. His hand ran through my hair. He kissed the top of my head and wrapped his arms around me.

After our little bath, he stood up and wrapped a towel around his waist. He got a towel and opened it. I stood up and he wrapped the towel around me, drying me off. I muttered a thanks and we walked into the bedroom.

I changed into my underwear as he put on his boxers. He handed me one of his t-shirts and lifted me up. He laid me on the bed and wrapped his arms around me. He pressed playful kisses on my neck as I giggled.

"I love you so much, Athena."He whispered lovely. I brought my hand up to his cheek.

"I love you."I kissed his pink lips. I pulled away and hugged him, burying my face in his chest.
