Delilah Pov
Somehow we ended up in the shower. It was just like my dream. It was hot and steamy. I could barely see but his hands came to grab my waist. He pulled me closer to him and I quickly kissed him. This moment was everything. It was perfect. His lips were soft and cold. My hand came up to cup his face. I wanted to deepen the kiss. I wanted to devour him whole. I was eager and impatient. He lowered his kisses to my jaw and then down to my neck. I imagined what it would feel like for him to sink his teeth in me. I licked my lips in response. His kisses were soft and gentle. He cupped my breasts in his hands and kissed them eagerly.
"William," I moaned softly. He bit down softly on my n****e. He lifted me up and pushed me against the wall. I clawed at his back as his mouth came back to my neck. I wanted him to bite me. I felt his teeth touch my skin so I whimpered in anticipation. Suddenly, he put me down and looked into my eyes.
"I'm sorry Delilah, I want this, I want you but I don't think I should," his words cut deeper than a knife. I felt the tears forming in my eyes. They hadn't fallen yet but I knew it was just a matter of time.
"Delilah, I don't know how to love and-," I placed my index finger on his lips.
"But you loved her," I whispered.
"I was human then," he answered as he lowered my hand. He kissed the top of my hand and then leaned in to kiss my cheek. I felt stupid standing there in front of him naked. I pushed him back and ran out to find my clothes. I quickly changed and ran out of there. I didn't even want to shift, I need to calm down before I made it home.
Unfortunately, I did not. I ended up going to the abandoned house where Wes and I met up from time to time. I was too angry to go home. I started to think about him and Valencia. I thought of how it probably wasn't the first time. I grabbed the closest thing to me and threw it across the room. It made me feel a bit better so I looked for something else and threw that at the wall. I saw the lamp and just broke it by pushing it off the table. The tears were nonstop at this point.
"How could he love someone like her and not me," I thought. I was so stupid. He said it himself, he was human when he loved her but a part of me was reluctant to believe he didn't love her now. I didn't want him to love her. I wanted him to love me. I haven't even known him long but it felt real. Would my mate bond feel better or stronger than this feeling I feel right now?
"Delilah," I turned to look at the front door.
"Wes,"
"Hey, what's wrong?" he came and grabbed what I had in my hand. I buried my head in his chest.
"Please, don't be in love with someone else," I cried out.
"What?"
"I want you to love me and only me," I whispered.
"Del," he hugged me tightly. "I love you." I knew he would say that. I won't lie that as much as I needed to be comforted I knew I was playing with fire. I was toying with Wes and his heart. I didn't love him but his words made me forget about the rejection I just faced moments ago. Wes kissed my forehead and then lifted my head so I can gaze into his eyes. I pulled him down to kiss me. He deepened the kiss and pushed me back to the couch.
"Wes, wait," I knew I needed him but I didn't want to use him again. "Can you just hold me?" Wes helped me off of the couch and we went to the bedroom. I went to the bed and got in first. Wes slowly followed me and wrapped his arms around me. I slept with my head rested on his chest and tried to forget about what had happened tonight.
-The next day-
I woke up and Wes was still curled up next to me. I turned around to face him. He looked peaceful and beautiful. I kissed him lightly but suddenly I felt his strong arms wrap around me tightly.
"Del, I could get used to this," he said.
"Don't," I kissed him again. We both laughed but I knew I wasn't lying. He was in love with someone who wasn't meant for him. This was going to be a disaster.
My phone started ringing and I quickly looked for it.
"It's my mom," I told Wes.
"You going to answer it," he said.
"No, I know what she wants," I said. I quickly got off the bed and went to the bathroom. "You coming?"
Wes jumped off the bed and ran into the bathroom with me. We had some fun and then he walked me back home.
"Where have you been young lady," my father said.
"I'm sorry, I was with Wes," I said.
"Dear, you know Wes and you are more than welcome to spend time here," my mother said.
"I know but we just lost track of time and slept at his place," I said. My parents both looked at each other. My mother gestured for my father to leave the room.
"Honey, I know you two are close but don't-,"
"Mom,"
"Okay, okay, Are you excited for the gathering," she said.
"MOM!"
"What," she giggled.
"I am but what if I don't meet him," I said.
"You will,"
"You don't know that,"
"I don't but I know you have to be patient and you can't rush these things. What is meant to be will be."
"I guess,"
"We invited over a dozen alpha's and their unmated wolves, you will find your mate,"
"Can't wait,"
