hi, Thankyou for reading. please VOTE/REVIEW AND COMMENT. Thankyou :)
Nina’s Pov- “Uncle Jesse” I called out peeling my shoes from my feet. Choosing to wear a high wedge shoe to school was the dumbest idea I have had in a long time. My feet where throbbing from not only hours of wearing them in school but the long and painful walk home I had just had to endure. Of course Lucas was the gentleman that he is and offered to give me a ride home, the only issue being was that he had football practice and I would have to wait on the bleachers for him to finish so I did what any insane person would do, decline the offer and walk endlessly for nearly two hours and trust me I fully regret that decision now. School wasn’t even that far from Uncle Jesse’s house but the fact I got lost on every road that I turned down was the time-consuming part. Sure, I could have texted uncle Jesse for a lift, but I was stubborn and wanted to be the one to find my own way home, I mean What better way was there to learn your new surrounding than walking them? “Uncle Jesse” I calle
Mavericks pov- I kicked the dirt beneath my feet in agitation as I listened to the raised voices that came from inside. My father was calm about the whole finding my mate situation but Jesse for likes of simple words was not. He was let’s say furious to find out not only was my mate human but his one and only niece. It was a shock to everyone to say the least, we had never heard of a shifter being mated with a full breaded human. It was kind of insane, surreal even to think that my mate was so far yet so close this entire time. “it’s too dangerous Fred” “You know the boy Jesse, he’s a good lad he would never hurt the girl” “he’s a fucking werewolf.” Jesse blowed earning a growl from Levi who preferred the term shifter. “He may not intend to hurt her but what happens when he can’t control his wolf? Or—or when he tries to mate her, she’s human the bite of a werewolf mark would kill her” Jesse ranted on. I could feel the eyes of my brothers burning into the side of my head, watching
My first week of school wasn’t as bad as the first day was. Throughout the week the curious gazes of my fellow students had died down and come Wednesday morning everyone was approaching me with questions on how I was finding school so far or a weird ridiculous remark of how I’m not walking around with a cup of tea and my pinkie finger sticking out. What was that about? Americans really do believe we live like the queen back home. My encounter with Maverick at Monday’s lunch break was our one and only encounter so far. I hadn’t had any run‘ins with him at all throughout the week and I stupidly yet weirdly found myself looking around each corner in hopes we did bump into each other again. God! If I was to say this out loud, I would sound ridiculous considering I didn’t know the guy, but I couldn’t help it he has obviously made some sort of impression on me. I assume he hasn’t been in school all week and I was tempted to ask his brothers of his whereabouts, who by the way I have exchange
Mavericks pov- “Boys” called Father Kingsley frantically rushing down the stairs, causing me to shoot up from my seat on the sofa on high alert, Kingsley was never frantic always collected in any and all situations. “Calm down Jesse start again” he spoke to the phone, the glances of worry between my brothers at our father’s clear panic. “She got a call about the death of a friend and just completely freaked out. ran into the pissing rain no coat, no phone. I need to find her Fred. She doesn’t know this town well enough to be running off with no phone. Its dark, it’s still raining, she’s going to freeze to death. she lost her mum not even three weeks ago and then this! I don’t know what to do Fred I’m beyond worried for her” Jesse explained and with each word my wolf grew through anguish, worry, panic, and anger. Nobody said her name, but we knew it was Nina that needed our help. “Calm down Jesse, stay level-headed” he tried to calm his friend “Boys!” father Kingsley looked up from
Nina’s pov- My chest was tight with the ache in my heart. It just seems so surreal to know that Ashton was really gone, to know that my mum was really gone. everything feels empty with the knowledge that yet another person I cared for was no longer here. if I text him, I now wouldn’t get a reply. if I needed my mother she wouldn’t be there to answer when I call. I gripped at Mavericks shirt, my forehead leaning against his chest. The touch of his palm soothing me in the sweetest way as he held me against his body. He smelt so good, the smell of his cologne a warmth to me. I was no longer crying but I couldn’t bring myself to let him go, I was afraid that if I did, I would break all over again. I was a girl who didn’t break, I didn’t want to break. but here I am, in the arms of a boy I had met only once. He was a stranger but, in this moment, he didn’t feel like one. In this moment he was much more, he was my anchor to the ground, my safety jacket that let me swim without drowning. H
Mavericks pov- I was tormenting myself as we were quickly approaching Nina’s driveway. I had thought about taking a couple of pointless turns to drag out my time with her but one look at her dripping wet hair and soaked through dress and I knew I had to get her home. It was a long walk but still not enough time to ease my wolf or please me. The walk was nice though, my brothers followed from a distance but still gave us the privacy we needed. It was good, to be close to her rather than having to stay away from her like I had to do all week. Now that I have had her company for more than a few minutes I now don’t think It would be possible for me to stay away, not because of my wolf but because I wanted to see her again, spend more time with her. Maybe tonight was proof that it is possible to be around her safely, I had managed to stay in control the entire night with no slip ups, my wolf not even attempting anything weird like marking her, fuck! If he did some shit like that then I wo
Well, my weekend was eventful to say the least. After my melt down at the grill on Saturday I had refused to leave the house for the rest of the weekend. I was embarrassed not only for my scene at the grill but my breakdown in front of Maverick. He had handled the situation really well and seemed genuinely concerned for me but that didn’t make the reality of how I had publicly behaved any less of an embarrassment. Uncle Jesse was up and out of the house early Sunday morning leaving me free to spend the whole of the morning to cry it out, only stopping when I was forced too with a knock on the door from Lucas in the late afternoon. He was sweet, he wanted to stop by and check on me and Arleen had sent him with a bag of food to make sure that I was eating and not skipping meals like I had been doing. I felt horrid for my behaviour towards her on Saturday evening, I made a mental note to apologise for knocking her over in the process of fleeing the grill, she didn’t deserve that, and I sp
I jumped in my seat at a harsh knocking against the outside of the windscreen, dragging me miserably back to the reality that was the school parking lot and with a hand to my now furiously beating heart caused by the fright I came face to face with Lucas with an unamused frown upon his face. He had managed to get out the car and everything while I had sat here in a complete daydream. Fuck was today going to be a long day for me. I took my seatbelt of and opened the car door before Lucas has another chance to knock the fear back into me. “What where you doing falling asleep in there?” he fired as quick as a nine mill. “Sorry, I know I’m a mess, I’m working on it” I eased an apology. “Yeah, Don’t I know it” he remarked, Ouch! I didn’t need and could have done without the confirmation that I was indeed a living, breathing cliche. “The bell is two seconds away from ringing, I won’t be able to walk you to class if you don’t hurry up” Lucas ranted. He was so grouchy today, maybe being ta
I entered the kitchen with a drag in my steps. Couldn’t Maverick understand where I was coming from? Couldn’t he understand that I was processing everything as best that I can, and I can’t skirt around certain topics because he simply doesn’t want to hear it.“He will be fine once he’s cooled off sweetheart” Levi grabbed my attention, he was sat in the same spot only instead of shovelling a sandwich into his mouth he was happily crunching away on an apple. “I promise I tried not to listen in, but it was kind of hard with the hearing that I have” he chuckled, his light amusement was his way of trying to lighten the dampness that Mav and I’s drama had caused.“Am I wrong?” I found myself asking as I dragged my feet across the kitchen in order to plug my phone and charger into a socket.“There is no right and wrong, this is new to both of you.” he answered, and I turned to face him.“Do you agree with Maverick? That what I said was bullshit?” I shot another question his way, I don’t know
My breathe evened out as I slowly but surely recovered from the past ten minutes, no not even just the past ten minutes but the entirety of this morning with Maverick. I was totally turning into one of those girls that was boy crazy. Not just any boy but a certain boy that not only gets under my skin but can at the same time turn those beautiful sparks to flames. Yeah, boys where something that had been a thing to cross my mind, of course it was. I was seventeen years old and haven’t been shy to experiment. But Maverick was something new, the way he captures my attention is beyond anything I have ever experienced. Nobody had ever brought such captivation out of me. He oozed everything manly from the way he dressed to the way he smelled. He was thrilling, dangerous even and dare I say it as hot as hell fire.Glancing around Levi’s room I took in the dark theme, much like Maverick’s room the colour theme was a mixture of dark oaks and black, grey shades. Everything was neat, his bed was
Nina’s Pov- I stood at the top of the stairs unsure of what room would be Levi’s. I know the room opposite the bathroom was Mavericks his overpowering scent was literally drawing me to it. I took a deep breath and sniffed the air, God I felt ridiculous doing it, but I caught the familiar scent that I was looking for, his scent was faint and overpowered by that sweet yet manly scent that was so intriguingly Maverick. I followed the light scent of what I could only place as spring and a touch of sweetness like berries of some sort. I followed Levi’s scent towards the room one door down form Maverick’s, I didn’t know why but I found myself pausing outside his door, like the room had some magical entities that invited me in. my fingertips reached out wrapping around the doorknob and I groaned out loud maybe if I peaked in to the room then the need to enter would dimmish a little. Oh god I was physically fighting with myself in order to avoid embarrassing myself again by doing somethings a
“Are you ok?” Maverick asked, his lips brushing ever so gently over mine with the movement caused by his question. My cheeks flushed, I had or more so my beast had just licked him like a dog. Not only does she appear unannounced and unwelcomed she leaves me with the mortification of her actions.“That’s a blush I don’t mind seeing” he said softly taking my chin between his finger and thumb and with the smallest of tilts he brought our lips together. My eyes closed all on their own with the gentle touching of our lips. So soft, so tingly and then nothing. I opened my eyes at the loss of contact, his thumb still held me in place as he watched me as if waiting for my reaction.“No fight?” he asked, his lips tugging into a gentle smile as he waited for a reply but I wasn’t going to give him one formed with words instead I caught his bottom lip between my teeth and tugged gently. The action completely new to me but definitely all me. He groaned, encasing my head between the palms of his ha
“Mav” I began to panic as I turned in his hold, his eyes where golden so brightly lit by his wolf as they staired back at me. I raced through my clouded mind. It felt odd, like there was fog surrounding my entire brain and forcing me out. I sifted through the memory of the past minute trying to figure out the reason for the drastic change in not only me and my surroundings but of Maverick’s sudden stone like behaviour. And then it hit me, the growl I had heard moments ago whilst I was consumed in everything that was Maverick wasn’t one that I had grown accustomed too. I franticly glanced around us seeing that we were alone, no Levi and no intruder.“That wasn’t you who growled was it?” I asked and he shook his head. He looked tense, concentrated even. Concentrated on what? I don’t know.“Me?” I asked and he nodded the thick bob of his throat visible as he gulped in the weird tension that now settled between us. I found myself staring intensely at every detail in the action as he swall
I glanced to Kat and her fearful expression as the toxicity and tension between the males the we so happen to have in our company had the air so thick it was almost chocking. The information Lucas had just forced upon us had left me with nothing less of a whiplash effect. Everything in this damn town comes out of nowhere. Everything is so sudden and unexpected I have no time to consume and adjust to the newness of everything before I’m thrown against another wall of craziness. “You have five seconds to leave my territory” Maverick demanded the attention of everyone with his thick authoritative tone. “one” he began to intimidatingly count. “We aren’t here to cause any trouble” Katarina scrambled to pick up the chain on the floor in front of Lucas, I watched as she shoved it into his chest with a burning gaze and he reluctantly nodded his head as she proceeded to place the chain back around his neck, his blazing fiery orange eyes dulled until the they faded back leaving the eyes of a
“Mav” I called after him, I was itching to move and follow but at the same time I wanted to truly try to keep from starting another argument with him less than twenty minutes after calling a truce with him. “Where the fuck is she” Lucas’s livid tone cut me from my calm resolve, Forcing me to break out of the spot I was stood in and into a run. the attempt at staying put was futile as I rounded the side of the house and in to the front yard only to come face to face with two hostile and ready to throw down boys. “I’m only going to tell you once more, leave before I throw you in the damn boot of your car and drive you off my land myself” Maverick threatened his entire body so visibly tense. “what’s going on” I cut through the thick hostility in the air, hoping in someway my presence might break the ice between the two boys and there show of dominance between each other. “Nina” Katarina let out as she climbed out of the passenger side of Lucas’s car and with her words Lucas sighed wit
Silence was everywhere. The tension Levi had left behind was thick in the air. Not only that but I was worried about him, the feeling of concern flowing in my chest as I watched the door swing shut with his leave. “Is he going to be, ok?” I asked unsure but certain that something was playing with Levi’s emotions. He was so… how do I put it? passionate and adamant that Maverick an I have something. “He’s just going through some things. He will be fine” Maverick reassured as I turned to face him. “you know he’s right, all we do is fight. Fighting with you is exhausting” I admitted and I wasn’t even afraid to admit it because it was the truth. I was drained of fighting everything that crosses me and lately there isn’t a day that goes by where I am not arguing with or crying over someone. “I can agree with that darling” he let out a scoff of a chuckle. “I” I began but closed my lips. I didn’t know what to say or if I should even say something because I was for sure still so angry with
Maverick stepped through the thresh hold of the door, his eyes instantly finding mine. All that anger from last night had vanished because all I felt right now was thankfulness that he had been there for me through that pain and although he physically didn’t hold me last night somehow I knew he was there, easing the pain from the outside of the barn. He took his eyes from me to the twins, his jaw clenching before returning his stormy gaze back on me and without a word he walked straight past me. I swivelled on my heels to face his retreating form, confusion hitting me head on. “Mav?” I called after him, a pang of pain hit my chest at the lack of acknowledgement. He was angry and that was evident with each silent stomping stride away from me, I know last night our drama was heated but I thought that after he had been there to help me through the pain that followed our drama that we could attempt to communicate on a civil and grown-up level. Although I didn’t want to do that last nigh
