The Surfer or the Wolf

Isaac’s POV

“Go home, Gia.” I told her angrily.

She started to walk towards me seductively. I rolled my eyes at her, she really didn’t do nothing for me anymore.

“You look tense Isaac, let me help you.” Gia said as she rubbed up against me.

I grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her away gently.

“Ah come on babe! Don’t you find me pretty anymore?” She said as she started to lower her bra, exposing her breasts.

I walked passed her and walked in my room.

“GO HOME.” I commanded and then I slammed the door shut.

I paced around my room furiously to calm down, for some reason I just couldn’t. I felt rage take over my body, then I realized that it wasn’t my own emotions, they were Mila’s.

I quickly texted her but she didn’t answer. I called and called but it went straight to voicemail. I kept calling until I heard a soft voice answer the phone, I recognized it as Mila’s little sister.

She told me what was happening and I felt it in my bones that Mila was about to shift. If she did and Oliver was still in front of her, she would probably kill him.

“Dev, you need to go to Mila’s house NOW. Her wolf is taking control of her body.”

I sat on my bed and nervously fiddled my fingers, I fought back the need to go to her. I needed to keep as much distance as I could from her, I couldn’t let anyone see me near her too much.

Devin mindlinked me back that everything was ok, they were going to take a run. I was relieved.

I told him to keep me updated every hour and then I went to the bathroom to take a shower.

I stood under the steaming hot water for a while. I couldn’t believe how complicated my life had gotten in the last few days. I hoped Mila wouldn’t stay mad at me for too long, I missed her so much already.

I knew I needed to stay away from her, but maybe we could still find a way to sneak in some sexy time. It’s not fair that I just met her, I was able to touch every part of her and I was able to taste her delicious body and now I had to put that on pause.

Ugh, just thinking about her made my c**k rock hard. I couldn’t wait to pound it in her again. I rubbed it softly, imagining that Mila’s plump lift were pressed around it while I found my release.

I shook my head in frustration, I would never be satisfied without her again.

I grumpily got out of the shower and jumped in bed for a much needed rest. I laid there trying to find sleep with great difficulty.

Suddenly, I glanced at my window and looked at the forest. I almost felt like Mila was nearby..I grunted and turned around in bed. Finding my mate was driving me crazy.

I tossed and turned until I finally was able to fall asleep, images of Mila sleeping next to me flooded my mind.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock, I grunted and quickly turned it off.

I had to get up and get ready for the pack meeting. I was going to announce to the pack that I would take over as Alpha for the time being, I would tell them about the attack and that we would increase training and double up on patrol until we eliminated the threat.

I would also say a few words to celebrate Whitney’s life, but we decided to wait until Cohen woke up before holding the official funeral.

I got dressed and made my way downstairs for breakfast. I was piling some food on my plate when I received a mindlink from Devin.

“Hey Alpha..Mila is wondering if she can attend today’s pack meeting.” He asked.

I perked up at the thought of seeing Mila, I would have to stay away from her but simply seeing her would be great right now.

“Sure, make sure to stay with her and explain to her that she should keep her distance from me.” I replied to him.

I ate my breakfast with a smile engraved on my face. My mate wants to be apart of my pack, I swelled up with pride.

Mila’s POV

I drove to the packhouse while asking Devin a bunch of questions. He laughed at me but he answered every single one. I was so nervous, Devin told me I needed to basically ignore Isaac, which angered me. I needed to find a way to talk to him, this was ridiculous.

Devin led me inside the packhouse into a big hall. We sat down in the back and I glanced around me.

The hall was full of people of all ages, I smiled when I saw young families with their kids. I imagined how my life would have been if my father had accepted to join this pack, I would have met Isaac when we were both kids.

I felt a pair of eyes on me so I looked to my left and noticed a familiar pair of blue eyes looking at me. I sat there in shock, I nudged Devin with my elbow and he winced in pain.

“Kelly?! She’s a werewolf too?!” I whispered.

He chuckled nervously and nodded. I started to think that we were the only humans in town. Well..I guess we’re not human, this would take a while to get used to.

All of a sudden, Kelly came over and sat in the empty seat next to me.

“Hey..” I said nervously.

“Hey! Are you two mates?!” She asked cheerily. I had never seen her show this much emotion.

“Uh..no.” I answered and Devin snorted in laughter.

“Oh..then what are you doing here, Mila?” Kelly asked me curiously.

I looked at Devin and then bit my lip nervously. I wasn’t sure what to tell her.

“Mila recently found out she’s a werewolf, her parents kept it from her.” Devin answered in a bored tone.

“Oh! Well, welcome to the pack I guess.” Kelly said in her usual monotone voice.

“Thanks..” I answered hesitantly.

Then I heard the crowd hush as Isaac stepped on stage.

He looked so handsome in his black dress shirt and grey jeans. I wanted nothing more than to be wrapped up in his muscular arms. My face contorted in pain and Devin gave me a comforting smile.

I listened as Isaac addressed the crowd in such a professional way, he stood there confidently like the leader he is. I was so proud of him, I smiled genuinely at him and his eyes locked in with mine at that moment. I saw his eyes flicker blue for a second and then he broke our eye contact, I felt a pinch in my chest.

After his speech about the vampires and how he assured everyone’s safety, he started to say a few words about Whitney.

“I’d like to take this time to honour our fallen Luna, Whitney. Her official funeral service will be held when our Alpha, her mate, recovers from him coma.” Isaac started.

I noticed a couple sitting up front holding eachother and crying softly. The man had Whitney’s same blond hair, and the women was basically a replica of Whitney, except that her hair was fiery red. Safe to assume that they were Whitney’s parents.

Isaac went on saying beautiful words to describe Whitney, I couldn’t help but tear up. I didn’t get the chance to get to know Whitney too much, but I was happy that I at least got to meet her once and I got to see her beautiful personality shine through. She truly was a beautiful soul, my heart ached when I looked around and I noticed that there wasn’t a dry eye in the house, everyone cared for her so deeply.

The meeting was finally over and the crowd was beginning to leave. I got up and glanced up front, Isaac was looking at me longingly. I gave him a half smile which he returned.

All of a sudden, a tall brunette walked on stage and jumped into Isaac’s arms. A low growl escaped my lips, I looked at Devin and he had a shocked expression on his face.

“Aren’t they so cute together?” I heard a girl near me say.

“Yeah! I’m so glad they got back together! Gia is going to make the best luna.” Another girl replied.

I couldn’t hold back the traitorous tears that formed in my eyes, I pushed passed Devin and ran out the packhouse.

I ran to my jeep and quickly hopped in. Devin quickly caught up to me and opened my door.

“I wanna go home, Dev. Please..” I begged him.

I couldn’t stand the pain, my heart was breaking. I knew Isaac didn’t want me anymore, so this is what was happening, he didn’t think I could be a good Luna. I started sobbing and clutching my chest, I was having trouble breathing. Devin was rubbing my back in a friendly way.

“Come on, Mila. Isaac wants to talk to you in his office, hear him out please. It’s not what it looks like, I promise.” Devin said softly.

“No, please let me go home..” I begged.

Devin’s eyes darkened and then he sighed loudly.

“Ok..i’ll drive you home. Scoot to the passenger seat.” He said calmly.

I let Devin take the wheel and I sat next to him, still clutching my broken heart. We started driving away and I noticed a pair of brown eyes painfully watching me.

Isaac stood on the steps on the packhouse, he stared at us as we drove off. His eyes were full of pain, he grabbed his hair and walked off.

“Everything will be ok, Mila.” Devin said comfortingly as we drove further away.

I laid my head back and stared into the trees.

“So..who’s Gia?” I asked
