The Surfer or the Wolf

t w e n t y

Isaac’s POV

F**k. This isn’t at all how I wanted our date to go. We were having the most perfect night, our bond was getting stronger and we were seconds away from mating. I was going to wait until I told her that I was a werewolf before mating with her, but she was begging me to make love to her and I couldn’t leave my mate unsatisfied.

Just when I was about to pound my d**k inside her, I heard a noise in the forest. I sat up to listen carefully and that’s when the smell of rotten flesh hit my nose. It was a vampire. I had to get Mila to safety and quick.

Vampires and Werewolves were at war for years, they attacked us any chance they got. I knew this one wouldn’t hesitate to attack us, especially since I had alpha blood and my father had executed hundreds of vampires in his reign.

I had almost managed to run back to my truck with Mila before the f****r collided with us and I was forced to fight him off. This wasn’t at all how I wanted to explain to Mila about my world. She was understandably terrified at the horrific scene that happened before her eyes. She would think i’m a monster, i’m sure.

But I couldn’t worry about that right now, I had to get her to safety in case the vampire wasn’t alone.

I picked up Mila’s trembling body and finally made it to my truck. I sat her in the passenger seat and quickly ran to the other side. I drove off towards my home while mindlinking my brother to tell him about what happened. He was outraged, he was sending his best warriors to scout the area and to dispose of the body.

My mind was going a mile a minute, I glanced at Mila from time to time but she was completely silent. Her face was pale and expressionless.

“Pull over.” She said in a panic. I shook my head, I had to get her back to safety. I knew she was obviously scared of me right now but I was going to explain everything to her as soon as I was sure she was safe.

“I can’t Mila, I need to get you safe..” I said, pleading for her to understand and to trust me.

“I’m going to be sick! PULL OVER!” She shouted as she gripped the seat under her. I quickly emptied a bag that was in the backseat with one hand still on the wheel and handed her the bag. She grabbed it and instantly emptied her stomach. I rubbed my hand on her back to comfort her and tried to get her hair out of her face.

“Are you okay?” I asked her softly. Her eyes were watery and her cheeks were now red, it was nice to see a little colour come back to her. She nodded to me and sat back up on her seat, carefully tying the plastic bag and holding it, she was obviously embarrassed. I lowered my window and grabbed the bag from her to chuck it out the window. She lowered her gaze to the floor, refusing to look at me.

“Do you need another bag?” I asked her, carefully placing my hand on her thigh but then quickly removing it when I noticed her discomfort. She shook her head, still refusing to look at me. My heart broke in pieces, I had scared my mate. I hope I can convince her that I would never hurt her and that I wasn’t a monster, but I knew I would have a lot of trouble after what she had witnessed. I rubbed the back of my neck and sighed.

“Where are you taking me.” Mila said softly, her eyes now looking at me. I looked at her and felt the panic radiating from her.

“I’m taking you to my home, my packhouse. It’s heavily guarded and safe. I promise you Mila, I would never hurt you. I’ll explain everything to you..I only did what I did to protect you..” I said in a pained voice. I looked away from her, I couldn’t bare to look at her scared expression any longer. My heart was aching, my wolf was whimpering..and then a soft hand touched my arm. I looked up at Mila and she was looking at me with her big brown eyes, her expression had changed, she looked concerned but not as scared.

“I know you wouldn’t hurt me, Isaac. I trust you..I am however really curious to know what the f**k is going on and terrified but not of you..” She said calmly. I grinned at her and let out a deep breath that I was holding in. I held her hand tightly and continued driving at full speed until we reached the Midnight Howl territory.

When we crossed the border, I noticed a few wolves running near us to guard us, but I quickly mindlinked them to keep their distance so that Mila wouldn’t see them. I glanced at her nervously but she looked at me and smiled. I parked in front of the packhouse and ran over to help her out of the truck. I grabbed her hand and led her inside before my parents or my brother and Whitney saw us. I didn’t need them to ambush Mila and overwhelm her right now.

I ran up to the second floor where my bedroom is, she followed me eagerly. I opened up the door and gently guided her inside. She gasped, my bedroom here was just as impressive as the one at the University. They looked pretty similar actually, they both reflected my taste.

“Do you like it?” I chuckled. She looked at me wide eyed and glanced at the room again.

“Are you loaded or something? You can tell your decorator to come over to my house anytime!” She laughed.

I laughed with her and then went in my closet and took out one of my shirts and a pair of sweatpants.

“Why don’t I run you a bath and you can wash up and relax. Here, you can wear these.” I handed her my clothes and walked to the bathroom and turned on the faucet for the bathtub.

She followed me in and leaned against the vanity. I couldn’t help but gawk at her long tanned and toned legs. I raised my gaze up her body until I reached her eyes. She was grinning at me.

“Don’t even think about it.” She said firmly with her arms crossed over her chest. I smiled at her and sat on the edge of the tub. This women was going to be the death of me.

“Sorry. I can’t help it when it comes to you.” I said with a devilish grin. She rolled her eyes at me.

“Well control yourself, cause you’re not touching me again until you tell me everything.” She said with a half grin. I had to hold the side of the tub with all my strength. My wolf was fighting to surface and challenge her, bend her over the vanity and claim her right there, to prove his dominance to her. I obviously couldn’t let him do that, so I fought against him.

I got up quickly and started to leave.

“The towels are right there, make yourself at home. You should rest, i’ll be downstairs with my brother. If you need anything, just call or text me. We’ll talk about all of this tomorrow, okay?” I said gently, still fighting the urge to mate and mark her. She nodded at me and then pushed me completely out of the bathroom and closed the door while giggling softly.

My f**k, she was amazing.

I ran out and made my way to my brother’s office. We needed to discuss tonight’s attack and find out if there were any more danger.

I also had to figure out a way to make Mila understand this world..make her want to be in it..somehow.
