Teach Me How to Love

Raine was the independent girl who lost the two people in the world who were always supposed to be there for her.
She learned to not let others in, so she wouldn't get hurt again.
That changes when she meets her mate.

"Why won't you look at me?!"

"Because it hurts too damn much!"

His dark eyes emitted anger as he stared at me, disbelieving how stubborn I was.

"Well maybe you should try letting me in!"

We were yelling across the room, not caring that the werewolves outside could here us.

My arms were crossed, trying to hold myself together. I kept my eyes cast down, determined to keep some control.

"I can't. I just can't."

I whispered this last part, knowing he could still hear me with his wolf hearing. I felt drained from fighting. I was tired of fighting, especially with him.

I felt his presence as he strode across the room to stand right in front of me. His body radiated warmth and I felt a pull from within as my wolf called out to him.

"Just try."
