A Walk on the Wild Side

Chapter 18

Jasmine's POV

I woke up the next day feeling... sore.

Last night had been a long one, once Alec had marked me we got a bit carried away and completed the entire process.

As I replayed the events of last night in my head, a smile formed on my face. I shifted my position and caught sight of the body that lay in bed next to me. Alec's six pack proudly reflected the sunlight that peered through the curtains.

"Morning" his voice was husky, indicating that he had just woken up.

"Morning" the smile was visible in my voice.

I moved to get out of bed, wincing slightly. I heard a quiet laugh and shot him a glare, causing him to immediately become quiet.

I smirked to myself, standing up only to feel my head pounding.

"Are you ok?" Concern laced his voice.

I nodded though I was squeezing my eyes shut.

"I can feel some your pain through the mate bond."

Ohhhh. Makes sense.

'Yeahhhh'

I visibly jumped as his voice popped into my head.

'Sorry'

I narrowed my eyes at him.

"How do I do that?" My tone showing how unimpressed I was.

"Just focus on me. I think your headache is from the mind link opening. Once you join the pack, you'll be able to mind link everyone in the pack"

I did what he said. Feeling my eyes glaze over, I decided to test the link out.

'When can I join the pack?'

I saw him raise his eyebrows.

"You want to?"

I rolled my eyes.

"I'm clearly trying to use the mind link and you decide to reply out loud?"

'Sorry'

'Yeah yeah. And I would love to be introduced to the pack'

I could feel something warming in my chest and as I looked over at Alec's expression, I could tell it was the admiration he was feeling.

A smile fought its way to my lips as I noticed the mark on his neck. I forced myself to look away as I knew he would just distract me from getting ready.

I ran a warm shower, putting on a pair of jeans and a top. I could see my mark sitting on my shoulder, and it complemented my legion symbols. The mark was of a large wolf with streams of light surrounding it and the letters A and J were written below it.

When I got out the bathroom, Alec was pulling himself out of bed.

"Your parents are asking for you so we should grab some food and then head over there."
