New Life

Chapter 3 - Falling Hard

As I continue to read I notice the animals beginning to scatter, I stand to find myself surrounded by wolves. A giant grey wolf moves forward looking down at me, I see a small opening. Everything grows still, then Red's voice echos through my mind.

'RUN NOW!'

I book it, but it's no use because the grey wolf tackles me down. I try to fight back but it doesn't see to work, then everything goes black.

Violet POV

Warmth. The best way to wake up in the morning is in the comfort of pure warmth. I snuggle into my soft pillow, as I snuggle into it I realize its harder than usual. I then notice a strong pair of arms wrapped around my waist. 

'Wait...Arms?'

I open my eyes to see...LOGAN!? THE NEW KID?! 

I try to get out of his arms but his grip only tightens. In pure panic, I wiggle my arm out and punch him in the gut, not only waking him up but sending him flying across the room. I get out of bed and run to the other side. Lucks not on my side because the closest exit is the balcony. 

Without thinking twice I run to the balcony and try to jump off the railing, hoping that I can transform in time. Before I could jump the same pair of arms pulls me back. I kick and punch trying to escape from his grasp. I start to scream and yell trying to find anything to use to break free. 

"Please Violet, calm down! I'm not going to hurt you!?" 

He then pins me down against the wall, leaving me cornered and embarrassed. Red finally speaks, 'Violet I think you should hear him out. I don't he's going to hurt us.' 

'Are you sure Red.'

'Yes, I'm getting a weird feeling from him and it's not bad.' 

I look at him in the eye, I ignore the thoughts of how attractive he is and focus on the task at hand. "Why am I here!? What do you want from me?!" 

He starts to calm down a bit, "I know then is going to sound weird but I just need to go for it." He takes a deep breath, "I'm a werewolf and I'm your mate." I just stare at him. If I couldn't transform into a 9 tail fox then I would think he's smoking crack. I believe he senses my uncertainty because he takes a few steps back. "I can prove it."

I watch as he starts to transform into a wolf, I stare wide-eyed ignoring the sound of ripping cloths. Once he's done He stares at me, he looks kinda cute in his wolf form. I walk up to him and rub his soft fur, I can't help but feel relaxed. I notice his tail wagging a bit, I chuckle a bit. 

His tail continues to wag, he walks over to a drawer and opens it with his mouth. I watch as he brags some clothes and walks over to the bathroom, closing the door behind him. Sometime later he comes back out with some sweatpants and a shirt. 

He sits on the floor in front of me, we stare at each other for a moment. I break the silence, "What's a mate?" He smiles a bit, "A mate is like a soulmate, you're my other half chosen by the moon goddess. Our connection is strung together like fate." 

I start to process what he said I look down at my hands then back at him. He looks worried, almost scarred. 

Red speaks, 'This must be a big deal, maybe you should give him a chance. If things go south we can always beat him up and run~'

I smile a bit and take his hand, "Can we take things slow? I don't want to rush into anything." His smile could light up a whole country, he lets go of my hand and wraps his arms around my waist. Pulling me close his rest his head in the crook of my neck, I do the same while returning his hug. 

He smells so good, like fresh books and sweet spices. I start to relax in his arms.

Logan POV

My wolf and I celebrate as we hug our mate, she smells so good~ I'm so glad she didn't reject us, I'm so happy. I pick her up, she yelps in surprise. I look at the time to see it's 6 and school starts in a couple of hours. 

Violet seems to notice as well, I look down at her and smile. "Want me to drive you home?" She looks at me and nods, I put her down and make my way to my closet. I grab her bag once I'm out she looks at it and smiles. I give it to her and smile at her little burst of joy, once she notices I'm watching she grows shy and looks away. 

I lead her out of the packhouse and to my car parked out front. We drive in sclience, but it's comfortable. I look over to her in the corner of my eye, she must be in deep thought. She snaps out of it and looks around, "Make a right at the next light."

I do as she instructed and make my turn. "It's the gray house." I pull up in her drive though, she smiles at me. "Thank you for taking me home Logan." The way my name rolls of her tough drives me crazy.

I snap out of it and return her gorgeous smile, "No problem, see you at school." I watch as he gets out and walks to her front door, I start to pull out and make my way to the packhouse. 

'Fuck I'm falling hard.'
