"Goodmorning beautiful", "goodmorning Elisah." "How are you feeling right now Essence?" "I feel free, I want to explore more boundaries with you." It's morning and I'm still at Elisah's apartment. He took my mind off everything last night. It was amazing and undescribable feelings. I think now would be the best time to talk about this "wife" thing. I begin, "I came here to discuss this whole wife thing Elisah. It isn't clicking with me, like I don't get it because you come out the blue asking me, no you rather just told me that I am going to be your wife. Why though?" "Essence I am alpha leader of my pack and I have come to the age of acquiring a wife. I have watched you for some time now and I choose you because of your appearance. You intrigue me and your smell of jazmine, drives me wild." I try to take this all in but what the hell is a pack leader and an alpha. The hell is he talking about. " Pack leader of what?" I asked. " Of course you don't know, I am of lycanthrope decent, to be more plain I'm a werewolf. I imprinted on your back. The thing you believe to be a tattoo. It is my mark on you basically saying you belong to me and no other wolf can have you." " You imprinted on me? Okay..what! You're a wolf or lycanthrope and a pack leader. Stop toying with me do you think this crap is funny, because it really isn't. Why the fuck are you being so weird? Elisah I thought you were an okay guy but now I know for sure that you're a creep. I'm leaving." "Please Essence it does make sense. The tight writhing in your body last night. It was not only from the pleasure I gave you, it was your body changing. After sex with me you will never want to go back to normal human sex". "You are so egotistic Elisah! Just like the guys from school, my penis is big okay I get it but don't brag on it". I then think about it, and my body did feel weird like something isn't right. I calm down and ask him, " did you make me a...", he finishes my sentence "a werewolf.. yes. I had to so that you can see and feel how I feel." He holds my hand, "Essence please accept me, but if you can't." He holds his head down trying not to express the pain on his face. "I will give your life back as a mere human and remove myself from your life." I'm not sure if I should say leave me alone or forgive me and let me stay in his life. "Elisah, I .... need to go." I said that and threw on my dress then left. How the hell do I go home and how do I say yes. I'm only 17, I shouldn't have to be making these decisions yet. I just lost the one I loved, who I gave my all to. Justin was my first in everything, the first boy I kissed, gave my virginity to, and loved. I feel so betrayed. A love lost and memories fade as I cry my way home walking down the street. I find my way home and wipe my tears away so that I can walk in the house.
"Mommy I'm home" I yell up the stairs. Everybody is sitting in the kitchen looking like they're thinking. My dad turns his head towards me. " Mommy what's wrong?" She opens her mouth then bursts out in tears. My father spoke for her, "Essence your sister is in the hospital. She was in a car accident that was almost fatal, but she has been in a coma since last night. Speaking of...where were you when we were trying to reach you and why are you dressed like a slut?" My eyes tear up and i begin to imagine my life without her.How can my life get any worse? My boyfriend broke my heart, the man or beast that loves me probably hates me now and now my sister. Why do I have such bad luck... I wonder do i have a spot in hell or something because the people in my life are hurt or hurting me. I run up to my room hoping to find comfort from Autumn and she's no help because her phone is dead. I lie in my bed looking at the ceiling wishing something magical would happen. Sadly nothing does and I'm left to sleep on a wet pillow. A knock comes from my window scaring me half to death. I walk over to look out of it and see Shane. (Shane is my nosy, cute next door neighbor. He looks like asian, dresses like a white boy and acts black. If anybody I'd rather talk to right now, he'd be the last but I don't want to call Lewis because he's probably with his boyfriend. I open my window. "Hey Essence why are you crying so loud?", he asked. See what I mean by nosy. I reply, "Come up here because I'm not about to yell out my window like some hoodrat." He climbs the tree near my window and slides through my window. " So why are you crying so loud?" I inhale then exhale, "I caught Justin cheating on me, my sister is in a coma and... and... I met a werewolf silly huh and oh so crazy". "So he finally confronted you." I give him a weird confused face. " What's that supposed to mean?" "Well since he's imprinted on you and I'm pretty sure you shot him down, I guess I need to do my part so we can leave this hell of a town. I hate Raivin town I want to move back to Bluewater Creek, so that we can run free again. But uhhh Elisah, he's a great guy Essence, like I've known him since his father was Alpha Leader. Yeah so what he told you was true, like he is a werewolf and our pack leader but we can't leave here until he marries. That is were you come in and take the place as wifey, so will you do it?" "Shane I don't understand but I ran off because I couldn't answer the question. I felt for him and I .... felt him...he made my body tremble. Last night was ... amazing." " So you fucked him?...ummm wow after he kills you and brings you back as a werewolf. okay." "He killed me? What?" Shit just got weirder and keeps getting weirder. "I can't deal", I yell. "Fuck does he think he is, because I know not god and damn sure isn't a magician". "Essence will you open your eyes and realize Elisah loves you. He chose you because not only your beauty but your scent...you smell of jazmine..the same as his mother did when she was queen bitch. Opps I meant alpha wife. His father stepped down when he realized that without his wife he can't take care of a pack. We're going to see him right now, so put some jeans on and a bra please then we're headed over to his place." I don't argue but I do as Shane says because he's like my older brother even though he is a nosy neighbor.
We drive over to his apartment and knock at his door and he answers but he looks drunk. " Elisah I brought Essence with me and she has plenty of things to tell you starting with... Essence you may speak now. I open my mouth again to him but this time I say something. " Elisah I'm so sorry..i I..-i just didn't understand. My life has been hell and I'm scared but I have developed feelings for you in the short time I've known you. This whole wife thing, just give me time to know you." "Understandable Essence but I couldn't marry you anyways until you were 18 so you have a whole 4 months when the time is right, I will have to began with the wedding preparations." "Okay Elisah but....can I stay here tonight? because at my house it doesn't feel like home anymore." "Of course maybe you will learn something." Elisah smiled wryly at me and Shane gets ready to leave on his way out the door he says, " Don't make any babies because she might not be of age to marry but she can get pregnant." Elisah laughed and I just thought about that. Me pregnant.. ha hell no.
"So beautiful what really made you want to stay?" " Well Elisah I do ummm I think I like you but you gotta tell me... how old are you?" " I am 24." " Youre such a creep but really you sure your not older or are you 24 in dog years?" I laughed but he straight faced me as I sat on his lap on the couch. " I am not a dog love but merely the decent of a man and beast. But yes in human years I am 24, I age how you age." I gaze into his mellow hazel eyes then apologize. " Sorry I'm still awkward about all of this but ummmm who all is apart of your pack?" "Its funny that you ask but there are 15 of us. Myself being the pack leader, my younger brother Christian you may know him because he attends school with you. My youngest sibling Lena. She's little sister and 4 years younger than you. My cousin Seth and of his mother Tessa. Then the five as everyone calls them. Troy and Trevor are twins, Myles, Brandon and of course you know him as Shane." "Shane isn't his real name?" "No its Shancé." I laughed, "so he has a french name to go with his don't make since outer look." " I guess but then their's my aunt Jenna and her husband Marco. My cousin Cicero and her boyfriend Dante. Then my father... Elisah." " So youre a junior?" "Yeah." He bowed his head in shame as if he doesn't like him or something. " So ummm wheres your mom?" He placed me on the couch off his lap and stood up walking towards the kitchen, looking irritable so I said, "I'm sorry I didn't mean to get personal." " Its okay Essence, I didn't mention her so I figure you'd want to know." With a pained expression on his face he told me.
