Unfortunately Fated

Chapter 17 (18+)

Jonathan

       We made it to the theater and there were very few people. Maxwell and I sat in the back row, and there was one other couple. One far in the front row. I had no idea what movie he chose, all I knew was I wasn't going to be focusing much on that either way. Maxwell had bought us some popcorn and slushies and we were cuddled up in the seats. It was one of those fancy movie theaters. That had the seats where you lean all the way back and can lift the middle armrest. "What movie did you pick?" I asked him, taking a bite of my popcorn. "I missed you today." He said as he put his hair up into a bun. "So is this what is going to be like? You always gone and me by myself. What if later on we have kids and-" I stopped myself, I can't believe I just said that. "Kids?" He raised an eyebrow at me. "I mean, yeah. It's something that I've thought about. Unless you don't want them." I started word vomiting and he just kept laughing at me. "Baby, I want kids. Especially with you. You don't need to censor what you talk about around me, especially our future. Now watch the movie." He wrapped his arm around me and I laid my head on his shoulder.  

       The movie was about 20 minutes in and we both were laying back in the chairs, our knees touching but our hands to ourselves. There was a space between us that I hated and I needed to fix or have him fix. He put his hand on my thigh and I immediately stiffened. I did the same to him, him having the same reaction. I slowly started to move my hand up his thigh, the electricity was burning. I leaned over to him putting my head in his neck. I laid my lips lightly on his neck, causing him to squeeze my thigh. I moved my hand up and laid it right on his member. I slowly started to trace it with my hand. I could feel it start to get hard on my hand. I continue kissing up and down his neck, he turned his head further to the side giving me more access to it. I slowly unzip his jeans and unbuttoned them. I slowly dip my hand in his pants and in his underwear. Once I made skin to skin contact he let out a soft groan. I grabbed him in my hand and started to move my hand up and down. Him getting harder and harder by the second. He moved his hand to my member and undoing my pants. His phone started buzzing, but we both ignored it.

       Maxwell connected our lips, it was a heated kiss, full of want and desire. His other hand moved and grabbed my face pulling me closer. I slowly picked up my pace, as did he. But had experience and I was just kind of guessing what to do next. He rubbed his thumb over my tip causing me to let out a moan, that was a little too loud. "Shh, baby, sh," Maxwell said against my lips. His pocket started vibrating, someone was calling him, again. "Just ignore it," Maxwell said, quickening his pace not only with his hand but in the kiss as well. I tried matching his speed, feeling this intense pleasure consume me. I could feel myself get close and him too. we pulled away for air and rested our foreheads together. It took everything in me to not scream out in pleasure. "Max.." I whispered at him, I could feel myself so close. "Me too." I used my other hand and gripped onto his shoulder. But right when we were about to climax together, his phone went off again. Reluctantly Maxwell pulled away and got his phone out. "What." He growled through the phone and had his teeth clenching together. 

'I need you to come to the castle.' River said through the phone.

'No, absolutely not.' Maxwell took his hand out and I pouted. I was sitting here all hot and bothered and with blue balls.

'Unless you're doing something that pertains to life and death. You don't have a choice.'

'I am with my mate River. I am not leaving.'

'I'm sorry, but do you think I want to be here either? I haven't seen Kailani in almost a month, and if I did it was when I was going to bed. You need to get here. My dad needs you.'

'I hate this.'

'I do too. Look just think, next week you can take Jonathan and go on vacation. We just need to finish this mission.' 

       I felt the anger radiating off of him. I knew he didn't want to leave, neither do I. "Max, it's okay. You are a delta, you have a duty. And in all honesty, I should probably go train for a couple of hours today." I said trying to make him feel better. "No, it's not okay. I'm tired of leaving you, and not being with you." He had these puppy dog eyes and it broke my heart. But I'm glad to know that he feels the same way I do. "Let's go, I don't want you getting in trouble." I zipped my pants back up, Maxwell did the same and we both got up and left the theater. Once in the car, Maxwell was gripping the steering wheel extremely tight. I tried grabbing his hand to calm him down but I think it just made things worse. "What's wrong?" I asked him. "If I start something I finish it." My breath got caught in my throat when he said that. My eyes started wandering on their own and saw that he was still very hard. "Well, when you get back." I started saying. But Maxwell growled at me when I said that. I sat back confused and moved my hand. "Baby, I'm sorry I didn't mean it." Maxwell tried grabbing my hand and moved it away. He pulled in front of his house and waited for me to say something. "Baby, please. Look at me. I didn't mean it." He pleaded, I just rolled my eyes and avoided eye contact. "I get its frustrating, trust me I know. But don't take it out on me." I got out of the car leaving Maxwell sitting there. Litlle did I know that was the last time I would see him for a long time.

****

      It was 12 am and Maxwell wasn't back yet. I didn't get a single call or text from him. I threw on a sweatshirt and walked down to the kitchen to make myself some tea. I saw there waiting for another hour, still nothing. I was constantly checking my phone. I even called him multiple times. It was 2 am and I heard footsteps come into the kitchen. "Jonathan? What are you doing up?" Mr. Damien asked me while he started making himself some tea. "I'm sorry Mr. Damien I didn't mean to wake you." I turned away shyly feeling slightly embarrassed. "Just call me Jacob. Now, what's going on? Talk to me." He walked over and sat down next to me, taking a drink of his tea. "Maxwell and I got into a fight, and then he went to the castle because River needed him. But I haven't heard anything from him. I've called and texted him and still nothing." I started crying, why am I always crying. "Well, then I should tell you this. Robert called me earlier in the night when they both got called to the castle. I am sure you know all about the rogue alpha that is torturing his pack. But, there was a last-minute call from Alpha Damon, saying that they are going there to try and rescue them. Kind of like a recon mission. They don't know how long they'll be gone for. But I do know it will be a while before I see my mate again, same for you."

      "Why didn't he call and tell me?" Pain flooded my heart, this was the last night I would see my mate, for who knows how long and yet he didn't bother to call. "Could he not take his phone?" I was trying to find one good reason as to why he wouldn't just call me. "I don't know. I can't tell you that. Maxwell does this. He did this with us when he went to boot camp. He didn't say goodbye, he left before we could take him to the airport. It was months before he called an talked to us. It's just something he does. It's easier for him to leave the people he loves without saying goodbye." The pain-filled me from head to toe, I tried to stop the crying but it wasn't working. I felt like my heart was being pulled out of my chest. I got up and ran up to Maxwell's room. I covered myself up with blankets and sniffed in his scent. I could already feel it fading by the second. Why does this keep happening to me? He left me. He said he never would and he did. I could feel my eyes turning, I could feel the power pushing forward, telling me to change.

Why would he leave?

I don't know.

How long is he going to be gone?

I don't know.

Are you going to give in?

Maybe...
