16. Not Mine

Sam's Pov

"What?!" my eyes bugged out of my head hearing the words from Avery.

Soulmate?

She knows who her soul mate is?

It's me?

What?

"Yeah, it's true," she says softly, I almost see her blushing and then it hits me that she isn't lying. I don't say anything for a while and she lets me process this, by now we're back on the bed, sitting close to each other.

"Really? But why me? Did you choose or how?" I asked her confused. She couldn't possibly choose me. I mean, why would she? I'm a mess.

"I don't know, it's chosen for us. Though I won't be completely like 100% sure until you're 18. Which brings me to the next thing we need to talk about," she says and I looked at her confused again.

"Alpha isn't going to let us date till you're 18. It's kinda illegal and honestly, I can end up in jail if someone finds out. You're a minor. And so, we've got to...keep a distance till you're 18," she says her words getting heavier and I see how troubled she is by this.

"I'm sorry," I whisper and she shakes her head.

"It's not your fault. I guess I met you a little early. Mates normally meet when they're both 18 because that's when they're like fully matured and stuff and go into heat and can mate." she trails off, thinking but I see the sadness in her eyes again. She's holding things back.

"There's more," I stated and she merely nods, taking my hand in hers. She sighs and doesn't say anything for a while.

"In three months, I'll be starting my heat. Heat is like a mating period we go through where we get horny and just want to have mind-blowing sex with our soulmates for days," she says a small smile on her lips. I blushed and looked away. Oh my God. With me? Wait, me? 

My mind raced with all the possibilities of even being that intimate with Avery. I know we've kissed, but she never suggested it, nor have I thought about it, yet.

"But, you're sixteen. So after I'm back from the academy, we can't do this anymore," she says referring to us and my heart dimmed. So we don't date? At all?

"I'll be in heat once a month, and during that time we can't see each other because, well, I wouldn't be able to control myself," she says her voice a little husky now. I looked up at her and her eyes were turning silver and it made my breath hitch. Why does this make her look even sexier?

"Control as in?" I mumbled still looking at her. She smirks, her eyes turning naughty and I see that glint in her eyes that I've never seen before. It made me hot all over. Fuck.

"As in, I'll want to-" she cut herself off as if she knows she shouldn't say it, but I knew what she was hinting at and I almost whimpered at that thought. I couldn't even comprehend it. Me? Are we talking about her doing me? I see her push that thought away and then she spoke again.

"Not to mention how possessive I'm going to get once my heat starts, especially since we're not mating, I'm sorry in advance love, but it's, it'll be bad," she says, her face softening. My heart warmed. I don't mind her being possessive, showing that she wants me and keeping me with her, that's all I want truthfully.

"It's okay," I say softly to her, looking into her beautiful eyes, my eyes trailing to the freckles on her face.

"Is this okay? There's nothing else we can do. It's going to have to be us, being friends till you're 18. No one can know we are a thing, well besides mum and dad and Jake and Alpha. No one. I know it's hard, it's going to be hard for me. I can't keep my hands off of you. I mean look at us now." she exclaims frustrated. I chuckled slightly seeing her all worked up.
