Elina’s P.O.V.
I have fantastic hearing and I know what I heard. “Mate” it stuck in the back of my head on repeat. What does that even mean? I watched them as they went into another room. What the hell is going on? I grabbed my phone and still no text from Ethan and the Uber should be here in an hour. I searched the web “mate” all that came up were those fiction books about werewolves, nothing else. I heard the door come swinging back open.
“Elina, my apologies for my rude nephew!” Jonah said, headed back towards the kitchen to make more tea.
“Hi, I’m Ash!” he said in a sexy, deep voice. He was literally a god! His beautiful black hair that was cut perfectly on the sides and long on the top. Perfect blue eyes with small specks of gold, pearl white teeth that were amazingly straight and a muscular body bigger than Ethan’s. If he moved any closer to me, I’d melt.
“ I-I’m Elina!” I stutter out.
“What a beautiful name Elina!” Why did him saying my name instantly make my spot between my legs on fire? Why is he smiling at me like that? “So do you live close?” I blurt out.
“I do and about that, I don’t think your Uber is coming, they normally don’t travel out here.” I could see the worry on his face.
“Ohhh well, Jonah, can you still take me home?” I yelled into the kitchen.
“I have a spare room back at my place if you’d like to shower and sleep for the night and I can take you back to town in the morning myself?” Making me turn back to him.
“Are you sure? I don’t want to be a burden?” I don’t want him to think that I want to stay and not go home, which is not true. I want to be closer to him. Why do I feel this way? I just got dropped off in the middle of nowhere from Ethan on our one year!
He smiled. “Not a problem at all, shall we go?”
I grabbed his hand. “It was nice meeting you Jonah!”
“Nice meeting you, don’t be a stranger now, you’re welcome here anytime!” I heard him yell from the kitchen.
Why are they both so nice? I should feel like this is a trap and I’m about to get kidnapped. I watched the movies. I also took karate but I don’t feel that at all. I feel safe and protected here.
