Lily:
I know I may sound dramatic thinking this, but I don’t care.. If he wanted to kill me he should’ve done it back at the pack house instead of bringing me to the cliff.
Dramatic I know, but what else am I suppose to think at this point?
He does however, finally stop and gently put me down.
My legs are a little shaky after that so I reach out and grab his arms and steady myself before I fall over.
Once I’m steady I take a step back towards the edge and keep my focus on the trees behind him.
He finally speaks, “Lily I know this is a shock to you and for me it is as well. I mean I’ve seen you around since you were four. I’ve seen you grow up, but I never knew you’d be my mate. However, you are and there’s something very unique with this bond. I need you to accept this because I can’t let you go now and if you try and run kitten I’ll hunt you down like the dog I am and bring you back.”
To say I was shocked is an understatement. I mean what’s so unique about us? There are tons of werewolves mated to humans I mean look and at my aunt and uncle. Also, hunt me down I mean I know that’s not a threat but dang I couldn’t even get two steps away what makes him think I’ll actually be able to run away?
“Lily say something I can see those wheels turning.”
I finally look at his face and say, “What is so unique about us? My uncle and aunt are mates and one is human and one werewolf. You can’t say we are unique when we aren’t.” I say with a smart tone.
He smirks, “Kitten, there are things to come that will make since, but please give me a chance you know how important the mate bond is. Now... that I’ve found you I’m whole. Let me wine and dine you and once you start to open up you’ll feel the bond. You know, it won’t be the same, but we are a perfect match. So stop being stubborn and just give me time, but if you’re going to be difficult I’ll take you to my pack tie you to the bed and force you to see it.”
Rolling my eyes at that, I think back to along time ago and how I thought it would be nice having someone be perfect for me and me them.
However, I like being difficult and I’ve changed. I know he’s right about the bond, but I just can’t give up this freedom yet and if he wants me like he says he will move mountains.
I conjuror up a plan and smile up at him, “Sure I’ll give you chance. We can start the wine and dine tomorrow though. Seeing tonight is suppose to be about my best friend and your brother and you threw a tantrum like a three year and brought me out here.”
His eyes light up at that and his perfect smile comes across his face and he says, “Thank you, I’ll have you in no time because we have no time to waste.” He bends down and kisses my forehead.
We turn to leave and I finally get a good look at Alex. He aged like fine wine since the last time I saw him four years ago.
Tall, probably 6”6 with 300 pounds of solid muscle, chocolate eyes and brown hair. He’s wearing a black suit with a white button up with the first two buttons undone and crescent moon chain hanging around his neck. He looks delicious, but to be honest all werewolves do.
