Lesley's POV

“Why?” Cedrick gritted between his teeth, folding his huge arms over his broad chest. His eyes avoided mine and were burning holes in the carpet on the floor.

“I-I want to see if there are any audiobooks lying around,” I replied, cursing my nervous stutter. Why was I so freaking nervous?! Oh, yeah! The last time we spoke, he almost strangled me!--- And yet, I was over the moon seeing him here. He didn’t smell like another woman! In fact, he smelled like an old couch and breath mints. You know? The ones you keep in your desk for emergencies. He spent the night at the office! And for some stupid unexplainable reason, that made me happy!

“Why?” he asked surprised, quickly ripping the rug out from under my happy moment and bringing me back down to reality…

“So I can get my homework done,” I muttered, stealing a glance at his annoyingly perfect face from time to time.

  • The Lottery Mate   Chapter 37

    Lesley’s POVI was not allowing myself to get excited about this!I was going on a date with my mate, sure! But if he made a last-minute cancelation, I wouldn’t show him that it hurt me. I was preparing to get disappointed, even preparing for the fact that this might even be his punishment for me. Get me worked up to rub it in my face later.I was NOT going to get worked up about this. I was his mate. Not someone he loved, right? I was just an inconvenience that he got stuck with...I took a deep breath.Yeah, that’s it. Like ‘Anja’ said: he loved her less than a week ago. There was no way he loved me. Or even cared for me.I took one last look in the mirror. Luckily, all my bruises were gone, so I could show a little skin for once without endangering my old pack. Tight black leggings under a pair of once-upon-a-ripped jeans, that I’d turned into shorts. A pair of yellow sneakers and a white tank top let so

  • The Lottery Mate   Chapter 38

    Lesley's POVI mentally rolled my eyes at him.And here I was thinking he was constipated! My wolf grinned--- and I just loved her even more.“If it’s any consolation, you look younger,” I answered, gesturing to the missing beard. And I hoped he got the hint to let it grow back. He looked better with it!“I know,” he just answered pointedly, picking up the fork and knife. “Still doesn’t change the numbers though.”“Relax! What’s the worst that could happen?” I replied and rolled my eyes. Grabbing my burger with both hands and gobbled down another mouthful. From the corner of my eye, I caught Cedrick’s astonished face while I chewed. “I’m part wolf,” I shrugged, unapologetically, swallowing, and hurried to take another bite. “Sorry if I eat like one.”He laughed, but quickly and nervously looked around as if he&rsquo

    Lesley's POVHe nodded and I could feel the presence of his wolf decrease until I almost couldn’t feel him anymore. For a second, I was worried about what my wolf was going to say about it. But to my surprise, she didn’t mind us humans having some alone time.I beamed a smile at him, leading him to the DJ booth.“Big D,” the tall, dark man exclaimed, once he was us and engulfed me in a ‘bro-hug’. “‘S’up?”DJ was one of the humans back home that I and Amanda had been good friends with. He was considerably older than us, but he was cool to hang with because he could get us access to all the clubs and bars he had a gig at. He moved away with his boyfriend when he got a job offer out of town, but he’d told me to look him up if I ever was in town.Because--- conveniences, bitches!“Hey, DJ,” I grinned back, not noticing the rage that flashed in

    Lesley's POVCedrick didn’t protest but fell in step with me. We ordered a large chip each and once we got our order, we continued to walk down the pier.“So,” Cedrick started out, a bit insecure. “Is this what qualifies as fun for you?”“This was the only fun I could have,” I confessed and mentally rolled my eyes when I met his surprised expression. “I was an Omega, remember?” I had to remind him. “I didn’t get paid, but by making the right kind of friends, I could get into clubs and stuff without paying.”“How do you make friends like that?”“I offered them my services,” I smirked--- without thinking how that sounded…“What?!” Cedrick exclaimed shocked and his wide eyes found mine. At first, I didn’t really get it--- until my wolf practically barked some sense back into me.“Oh, fuc

    Lesley’s POVSo--- Here’s what happened after that unexpected kiss.He took me home saying it was late!Yeah, I know!Smooth move there, Romeo!I was pissed, to say the least…I had felt his hands sneak around my waist, pulling me closer to him. His tongue graced mine, asking for entrance. Without thinking, I gave him access and he instantly deepened the kiss. Tasting me, like it was the sweetest ambrosia.I moaned, as the sparks erupted from the tip of my lips and spread through my entire body. Warming me from the inside out and making my knees weak in want. I wrapped my arms around his neck to keep me from falling. But it only resulted in pushing us even closer together, making me feel his erected excitement press against my abdom

    Lesley's POVI gulped and forced my body to be still. I don’t know what happened, but I knew I didn’t want to push my luck right now. And if I was being honest, I understood his actions a bit better. Sure, there were other ways he could have gone about it – and probably ALL of them better than what he chose! – but in the end, he didn’t want to hurt me.He--- he cared about my feelings...“Please get back in the car, so I can get home and have a VERY cold shower, so I don’t rip those clothes off your body?” he sighed, his blue eyes finding mine. “Please?” he repeated, those black orbs begging me to do what he said. “I’ll slow down, I swear,” he promised. “I don’t want to damage us more than I already have.”“OK,” I nodded--- and although I’d probably agree to go to the moon if he told me to right now, I felt the tensio

    Lesley’s POV“Good morning, sunshine,” Ryder greeted me in his usual manner, as I walked up to him in the arena.“Good morning, Ryder,” I answered, unable to stop grinning like a mad person.“Hmm, someone had a good date?” He teased. I didn’t reply, but snickered at him, letting him come to whatever conclusion he wanted. He grinned and shook his head, before putting on a more serious expression. “Ready for today’s lesson?” he asked. “You’re finally going to do some kicking back.”“I was born ready for this,” I replied, psyched as shit--- And moments later I wished I knew when to keep my mouth shut. Kicking and hitting back was hard, painful, and – unfortunately – involved the other part of kicking and hitting back too!And damn him, he was good!He kicked me, landing a pretty mean punch in my stomach. I wobbled back, before losing my balance--- only to land on a couple of strong arms that held me from falling on my

    Lesley’s POV“Leave her alone!”I pushed the guy in front of me, hoping he would back off. But once my hands connected with his firm chest, I’m pretty sure I sprained something.“Stupid werewolf strength,” I muttered, annoyed as the guy grabbed me by the collar and pulled me all the way over to him, so I could feel his bad breath on my skin.“Get out of my way, filthy bitch,” he sneered in my face. From the corner of my eye, I could see the girl standing next to him, with a satisfied grin on her face, while the slut on the ground was still crying her eyes out.So…You’re probably wondering about what the shit is going on? Why am I helping the backstabbing bitch on the ground? Why is the doofus in front of me is taking all his anger out on me? And who is that gorgeous, beautiful, horned-tails-and-pitchfork angel standing next to him? So, let me quickly fill you in…The backstabbing bitch, Amanda – also known as Amanda Fuck’s-A-Lot! – was my only friend, until she started to date Trevor

  • The Lottery Mate   Chapter 35

    Lesley's POVA low growl erupted from his chest. He leaned his body against mine. His lips trailed the naked skin of my exposed neck. The motion sent currents of soft electricity through my body, making me shiver. Yet not in a sexy way...“Good!”Suddenly, he dropped me. His hard frame left mine and he was gone. My legs barely caught the sudden weight of my body. Before I managed to pull myself together, I heard the door slam shut with such force that it shook the walls.I released a breath I didn’t know I’d been holding. My heart was slamming against my chest and was currently the only proof of life I had. My body was shaking, and more tears threatened to spill. Without thinking, my fingers found the angry mark left behind from his hand.Jeez! Why don’t werewolves have domestic violence laws? I sarcastically asked myself, although I already knew the answer: the evide
