The Blue Eyed Wolf

Chapter 12

I wake yet again to my mother yelling at me to get up and get ready for school.

Man I seriously hate going to school.

I get up out of bed and grab a nice outfit to go to the shower.

Once I'm done, I quickly get dressed and comb my hair. I then brush my teeth and quickly make my way downstairs.

I decided to leave my hair down again, but today I'm keeping a hair tie around my wrist in case I want to put it up.

I soon smelled the sweet smell of blueberry waffles. My personal favorite.

I then see my mother cooking some eggs and bacon as well. The waffles would have been just fine for me, but my brother and father have a much bigger appetite. I do, so she always makes a lot extra.

" Hey mom, did the boys already leave?" I ask. They are normally gone before I get up anyway, but I thought I might as well ask.

" Morning Amber, and not, actually. John wanted to walk you to school today. Tasha's father is taking her," says my mother.

I sit in a chair and turn it to face my mom. " Why? They're normally gone before I even get up," I say.

" I know, but for some reason John insisted on taking you. Your father, however, has a meeting to attend with Alpha George. They're going to go meet Alpha Conan and his bête," says my mother.

" What time does that start?" I ask.

" Around one, so he doesn't need to leave the house early today," says my mother. I nodded and started eating some food she set in front of me.

" Thank you, by the way," I say. She just smiles and continues to work in the kitchen.

Then I hear footsteps coming down the steps.

John soon comes into the kitchen and spots mom and I and walks up to us.

" Morning," he says.

" Morning." We say back at the same time.

John smiles. " So Amber, you have heard that I'm walking you to school today," says John.

It was more of a statement than it was a question, but I nodded anyway.

" Yes." I say.

" Good, hurry up and eat if you can. We need to leave as soon as we possibly can, "he says. After that, he grabs a waffle and an apple and makes his way to the door.

A couple of minutes later, I grab my bag, say bye to my mother and make my way outside where I find John waiting for me.

" Why did you want to walk me to school today?" I ask.

" Father and I were talking in his room this morning. Turns out there were more rogues in our territory and if the first ones targeted you specifically out of everyone, then we need to protect you and I volunteered to protect myself," says John.

I smile. It's good to know that my brother would rather protect me then let some person I don't know from the pack protect me.

The smile then fades. What if it was Connor they saw? What if they capture him? Or worse, what if they kill him? I force myself to stay calm and ask the next question.

" How many rogues, and where were they sighted?" I ask.

" They were sighted running through the woods on the west side of our territory. There were five of them this time rather than three," says John.

Relief fills me. Connor must be OK, because he didn't come with anyone.

" Well, what about Tasha? Does she need protection as well?" I ask.

" Don't worry about that. Her father already has that covered."

" Ok. So are you following me, even in my classes at school, lunch, everything?" I ask.

He nods. I then look and see were at my school. Well, here nothing goes.

We then walk into school together.

Soon though school was over, I honestly thought it would never end. With every class, I was asked by random students as to why my brother wouldn't stop following me. It was a question that was even asked by the teachers as well. John only said. ' Just following orders.'

It was getting pretty annoying at times. Finally, though it was over, and we were on our way back to my house.

So we walked straight into the house and I set my bag down and started on my homework.

There was one good thing about John being here. When I asked for help with the homework, he helped. That is how I needed help. I normally don't though.

Soon I was done with that and we grabbed a snack. Well, more like leftovers from breakfast.

After we ate, we sat down on the couch and started watching TV. I wasn't really paying attention.

Instead, I was looking outside where I would hopefully meet Connor again tonight.

Last night was wonderful. The place he sleeps is the most beautiful spot I have ever seen in our pack's territory. I can't believe how close it was to my house though.

I really trust and really like Connor. He's so sweet and kind and I can tell by the way he reacts to things. He's gone through a lot. I just wish I knew what.

' I'm dying to know as well.' My wolf says.

' Well, with him being our mate and all, he's bound to tell us sometime,' I say back.

She agrees with me. I look at John. He seems tense, like he's just waiting for something to happen.

I hope nothing does happen like it did last time. That was scary enough. Mostly not being able to contact anyone.

' Hey, can we go for a run tonight with Conner?' Asks my wolf.

I can tell she really wants to go for a run and I do to. ' Yes we can.' I say back.

I then smile because my wolf is basically cheering in joy.

I laughed slightly. John doesn't pay no mind to it. He knows what it's like to talk to your wolf at times.

Soon I got up and started cooking super. John shockingly gets up as well and helps me.

I like John being with me. I never really get to spend time with him. So I will enjoy what I can spend with him now.

As we cook I can sense how happy my wolf is, and it brings only one thought into my mind right now.

I can't wait for tonight.
