The Next Alpha

Nothing and No One, are ever what they seem.

"Do you believe in soulmates?" He snaked his fingers through my dainty little ones. Did I believe in soul mates? My parents never figured out their marriage. the relationship between my mom and Carly's father was, to put it in a nice way, strained. I had never seen A relationship last. But thinking back to Kyle's parents, how they fit so perfectly together. How well I fit with Kyle. The way he made me feel alive. I don't know if I believe in soulmates, but I believe in Kyle. I believe in us.
"Yes." I said faintly. My eyes connecting with Kyle again. The same aching feeling found its way inside of me. Yearning for him to fill that space between my legs.
"You mean like husband and wife?" I asked maybe a little too excitedly. Someone who was made specifically for me. He laughed a soulful laugh. "Yeah, kind of. The moon goddess blessed us with other halves. Our hearts are literally split into 2 at the time of creation. When you turn 16 you unlock the part of you that was blocked off and allows you to find and connect with your other half. It's a smell, a touch, a feeling that you get. You just know it." He raised his hand to my cheek and tenderly caressed it. My head moved on its own accord. Resting in the palm of his hand. My eyes closed in contentment; this was love. He was love. "Do you feel that?" I opened my eyes to meet his, my knees buckling at their power. He was amazing. I nodded, "That's our bond. Now imagine that time 100." He dropped his hand. I missed it as soon as it had left my skin. "That's what I feel."
