Chapter: Angry Best Friend (13){Rose's POV}I was running late today, which was causing me quite a bit of stress. 'Hey, I'm going to be later than usual, don't worry about waiting for me, hopefully we can meet at our lockers, but no guarantees.' I mindlinked with Lily as I jumped into my car.When I finally got to the school I rushed out of my car and faltered at the end of the parking lot. I had noticed Henry, slowly making his way towards the school building. I had remembered what Lily has said yesterday.Henry had definitely been taken care of. He had his arm in a sling, what appeared to be a broken nose, and a nice black eye. And that all was with the accelerated werewolf healing we had. I couldn't suppress my sn

Chapter: Exhaustion (12)I woke up with a groan, feeling frustrated. I rolled out of bed and stood in front of my mirror. I looked awful, like I hadn't slept at all. I was still exhausted, even though I had only done one extra task yesterday outside of my daily routine. The grocery shopping.I sighed and pulled off my shirt, pausing as my scar caught my eye. I hated that scar, it only caused me pain. I scowled at it and quickly grabbed a clean shirt, clean jeans, and socks and underwear. I rushed into the shower and made it as quick as I could so I wouldn't be late for school.Pat was waiting for me downstairs in the kitchen. “I made you scrambled eggs. They aren't as good as yours but I wanted to make sure you had something to eat.” He gave me a good look. “Man you look beat. Can I ge

Chapter: Secrets (11){Jax's POV}We finished our grocery shopping and I hesitated by the doors. I could still smell her, she hadn't left yet. I took a deep breath, braced myself, and we head out the doors. I heard a car start and watched the dark sedan pull away. I could feel some of the tension lift from my chest.When we got home I immediately began making dinner while Pat put things away. Smelling food Sal came barreling into the kitchen launching himself at my legs hugging them. “It smells so good Jax! Thank you!” He yelled out in excitement.I smiled warmly at him as I continued to cook with him attached to my legs. Pat chuckled as he finished up. He head out of the kitchen then leaving just me and Sal. I le

Chapter: Market (10){Rose's POV}I fell back as I crashed into Jax, shock coursing through my entire system as I dropped the bag of pretzels. In a flash of movement he caught the bag midair, and held it out to me as I looked up at him completely stunned.He seemed frozen in shock. How could he just be directly behind her, facing her, like that? Why was he so close to begin with? And now he's standing there like a crazy person holding the bag of pretzels out to me like I hadn't just full on crashed into him.Years and years of him tormenting me, being needlessly aggressive towards me for far less, being harsh and rude and mean to me, and in the past two days, he went from slamming me into my locker simply for existing, to ap

Chapter: Corn Chips (9){Jax's POV}Me and Pat were talking animatedly as Pat pushed the cart and I put in groceries, leading the way through the store. We were in the dairy section getting milk when I felt my body stiffen in alarm. This was quickly getting familiar.As her sent hit my nose I knew without a doubt that she had just walked into the store. She really smells amazing! Luca howled excitedly. You're right, but be quiet! I halfheartedly chided my wolf. “She's here.” I whispered very quietly to Pat.He went quiet and shot me a concerned look. A wild thought came over me and it was like I lost control of my own actions. I started making my way over to where she was. I watche

Chapter: The Thing About You (8)I basically coasted through my next class deep in thought and when I got to my next class I sat down next to Lily, still feeling kind of distant. She leaned over and whispered in my ear. “Nothing happened last class.” I knew what she was referring to. Jax was in her last class. Even without the weirdness it was normal for us to share what happens regarding him because he was such a bully toward me. But now, now it felt even more important. We were pretty quiet after class, and we ended up going our separate ways pretty quietly because I was still frustrated with Cass, feeling frustrated with myself, and I felt weird around Lily for some reason. My next class went by in a complete blur as well, and as I
