18. The Academy

Avery's Pov

It's been 2 weeks and I can't take it. My wolf is itching on the inside, clawing at me, wanting me to go home to our mate. My mood has become extremely negative that I keep snapping at everything and everyone including Jake. I cannot help it, the beta in me is furious that we are separated from our mate. I want Sam in my arms every day, it's been hell, I can't even sleep. I try not to tell this to her whenever she calls or when we skype, I don't need her worried or upset and to apologize again and again. 

She started homeschooling with mum and a friend and she updates me on how her homework and stuff are and complains about algebra. I can only smile and laugh seeing her all worked up, and god I could listen to her talk all day long. Her voice soothes me. Mum has told me that Sam goes to sleep on my bed every night because she hates sleeping alone now and it made me all fuzzy imagining her all wrapped up and cuddling my pillows and sheet. I asked Sam about this and she flamed and stuttered answering me, thinking no one has noticed that she creeps into my room every night. She was so embarrassed but I manage to make her confess that she likes the smell of my sheets, she says it smells like my perfume. And goddess, how satiated my wolf was hearing those words from our mate.

"You gonna sleep, love?" I asked, my phone still pressed into my ear. I hear Sam hum from the other side.

"Yeah," she mumbles, God she's so adorable. I could imagine her sleepy eyes.

"Alright, go to bed, night baby, text me when you get up in the morning."

"Okay night Avery, miss you," she whispers almost shy. I grin.

"I miss you too, night." I waited for her to cut the line and then put my phone away and walk back to the dorms. I was staying with 2 other betas, Sylvia and Jason from our neighbouring pack.

"Well well well, isn't it the sexiest female beta around?" I froze in surprise and turned behind. No fucking way. Nikolai.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I squealed and ran over to him, hugging him tightly. He chuckled and carried me, spinning me around.

"Came to see you." He says and I pulled away laughing.

"Yeah right, like I believe that Casanova. I can't believe you're here. It's been years." I say and he nods, I see the happiness in his orange eyes, God I've missed him.

"I know, I found my mate Avery, I found him."

"Him?" I asked my eyebrows raised. He's gay?! What?!

"Shadow." He nods, turning to the back and then I saw followed his eyes and there he was, a shy little boy, who was looking at me with jealousy in his eyes. Oh.

"Sorry," I say and stepped away slightly from Nikolai but a huge smile on my face as I walked up to him.

"Baby, this is Avery, my only best friend in the whole damn world besides Eug and the only other werewolf I can stand, besides you," Nikolai said his arms wrapping around his mates shoulders, making him blush but he moved closer to Nikolai.

"Aww, you guys are too cute. Hi, nice to meet you Shadow, sorry about that just now." He shook my hand.

"It's okay, I'm just, my wolf's not used to it yet," he says embarrassed, and I nod. I know how that feels.

"It's fine, but we should catch up and I can show you and tell you all about Nikolai here in his bachelor days. When did you guys meet? How? How old are you?" I fired questions, my eyes following Nikolai as he was trained on Shadow. I can see the love in them.

"You're so whipped Nik." I blurt out and he froze.

"'M not, you little dog." Shadow and I laughed because we both know it was true. I took Shadow's hand in mine and pulled him with me.
