Chapter13
Hunters Pov
I sat nervously in class, my fingers thumping on the table as I tried to calm my erratic behaviour unsuccessfully. Jack had texted her in the morning and told me she was here when she replied, just the thought that she was in the same school somewhere and not being able to be to her was eating me alive.
I knew where she was, how could I not when I asked for her schedule the day I acted foolish. What? I wasn’t a stalker, she was my mate and I had a right to know where she was in–case anything happened. Ok that was mostly a major lie, it comforted both me and my wolf to know her whereabouts but the fact I was purposely having to stay away to give her space was slowly killing me inside.
“You alright mate?” Collin asked from my side, Ellie his mate paying attention to the teacher as he roamed on and on about something or other. I would have paid attention but I had bigger things on my mind then what I was meant to be learning in class, like a certain matel had to gain the trust of after breaking it so quickly.
“No I’m not, my mate is in another room and hates my guts” I hissed out annoyed, my eyes flashing causing him to cringe slightly. I shot him an apologetic look but didn’t say anything, being an alpha meant it was a lot easier for my anger to get the better of me and my wolf to come out. I sighed again when I recalled my dad’s words: Your mate will calm that side of you, your wolf will want nothing more than to please her. I cringed at my line of thought, great I was now making myself and my wolf even more depressed!
“You don’t know that” he tried to look on the bright side, not that it was looking very bright at the minute. I stared at him blankly, “ok, ok so things hadn’t gone according to plan”
“Really” I scoffed sarcastically “You don’t say”
“But she came back didn’t she, she didn’t run” be concluded, my frown smoothing out slightly when I realised he was right. She could have run, and while the bond would have forced her to come back she hadn’t tried. I felt hope for once, crossing my fingers that Jack would talk some sense into her.
Hearing the bell go signalling the end of the lesson I gathered my things before I felt a wave of fury run through me causing my to stiffen, my pack mates immediately going on guard as I felt the strange emotion disappear as quick as it arrived. What the…Zoe!
“Shit” I cursed as I hurried out, aware of the fact my pack was following as I breathed in and let my wolf guide me to where she was. Was she ok, I knew it had to be from her since when my father had talked about mates he had stated he could feel my mums strong emotions as if they were his own. It was a protective mechanism, a way of keeping her safe.
Hurrying across the school grounds I suddenly caught sight of her, my wolf begging me to grovel at her feet for forgiveness. It would have been amusing in another less serious situation, my wolf was norinally extremely aggressive yet here he was wanting me to literally beg like the dog I am.
As I took her in I immediately felt my mouth water and the familiar feeling of lust run through me, she looked incredible in her short yet non–slutty skirt and vest top. God how much I wanted to…
“Hunter baby” I cringed, the sound of her screeching voice making my daydream shatter leaving me in a bad mood. Great, what did she want now?
“What Stacy?” I snapped, she didn’t seem to notice my tone even if she flinched a little. What the hell was wrong with her?
“Oh baby I just wanted to see if you wanted to ditch the rest of school” she asked in what thought she meant to be a seductive tone, it wasn’t. I weighed my options. One I could stay here and try and talk to my mate giving both me and my wolf some interaction with her that we both needed, or two have an extremely clingy slut screeching away at me while trying to get into my pants, Yea, not exactly a hard choice….
