The Struggles Of You And I

Chapter two.

Chapter 2

I could feel my insides burn as the heat took over. I was a she wolf going into my first heat.

When we are of age, we are first told about the ceremony and how we will be mated. We are also told that we will experience our first heat before the ceremony. Some go into heat the day of the ceremony, and others sooner. I had hoped that I got mine the day of the ceremony. We’re also told that with us going into heat it makes it easier for our mate to track us and mark us, but, unfortunately, it makes unmated males just as interested.

I hit the floor and double over in pain. As sweat collects on my forehead, I realize I have no such luck. I whimper out as need sweeps through me, and I could feel Sasha clawing in my head, becoming restless. I pray that no unmated male is close, and whimper again, hoping my father can hear me from behind the door. I am answered with a loud growl from the opposite direction, and I look over my shoulder to see a pack member; I think his name is James. I’m not sure but I can’t help it as my eyes travel down his body. Want pulses through me and I can’t help what sounds like a purr from escaping my lips.

"Elle, what are you doing in the halls?" He growls out through gritted teeth, I know in my head that he is holding back. A part of me is grateful, but the part of me that’s drowning in desire wants him to give in, to give me what I want to make the pain stop. Images flash in my head of all the things he could do to make the pain go away; I’m a virgin, but I have read enough books to know things. I can feel heat pool between my legs, and the air becomes thick with the smell of not only my heat, but harsh arousal. Within seconds, James lunges for me, growling, the temptation becoming too much.

A loud booming sound rings through the hall just as James comes into contact with my skin. I look up to see the Alpha’s office doors wide open and my father, the alpha and another man all staring at James, who was hovering over me and growling while I was moaning at the contact of a male - even if it was only his face rubbing into my neck. I feel no shame, even with my father there, but then the stranger standing beside the Alpha makes eye contact with me. A feral growl rips through his chest and my heart leaps at the sound. He grabs James by the back of his shirt and throws him down the hall as if he were nothing.

"Run mutt, or I won’t let you off so easily." He grunts.

I whimper on the floor, the sudden heat returning and causing me to roll into a ball. Assaulted with new images of this stranger taking me fast and hard making me moan. Suddenly, I was being scooped up and tingles shoot all over my skin. I look around and see that my father and the Alpha are going back into the office and I’m being carried by the stranger. I don’t know how we get to my room, I’m assuming he followed my scent - the very same scent I’m trying to shamelessly mark him with as I nuzzle into his chest and rub against him, all while making mewling sounds.

The heat’s died down enough for me to function, and as he attempts to lay me in bed, I wrap my arms around his neck, not letting him stand back up. His knee comes up onto the bed so that he won’t fall on top of me, and I whimper out as he tries to detangle himself from me.

"You need to let go, Kitten," His husky voice makes my body arch up towards him, wanting to hear more.

"Please stay," I whisper out. I know it’s a bad idea, as he seems unmated and I’m worried I’m going to do something stupid.
