What It Means To Love You

Finding Fascinations

Guys I am soooo excited! This is my last day of exams. Nothing, absolutely NOTHING can dampen my spirits at the moment.

“Hey, Sky!” Someone shouted as I was exiting my car.

“Hello Celeb” I replied and smiled back. “How are you.?!”

“Wonderful, now that I have seen my most favorite girl.” He smiled back. “How are you; how were your exams?”

“I am amazing and my exams thus far were great, I still have Psychology and Photography to take.” “And Yours?!” I asked.

“A bit like you.!” He smirked.

“And, how is that?” I asked with a glare.

He began…

“First, You both ask far too many questions,

Secondly, You both are difficult to understand,

Thirdly, more explanations are ALWAYS needed.

And, lastly, I ALWAYS fail.”

And, then he ran away laughing, just as I was about to punch him right in the mouth.

*.....................................................................................................*

A few hours passed and I just completed my final exam, I was tired and ready to go home to bed. As I was making my way to my car, where a friend was waiting for me, I walked past Collins and her group of friends.

“Poor Poor Skylar.! When will you ever learn that Corbin is MINE and does NOT want you.! You are so desperate! Why do you continue trying to gain what doesn’t belong to you.?”

“When Corbin tells me otherwise, but you know what is sadder still.?!” I smiled at her. “The fact that you assume he wants you.!”

“I thought his actions would have proved that to you, it is pretty clear to me when he finds his way between my thighs every night.” She snarled.

I shrugged and chuckled at her.

“Simply because I don’t allow him between mine.!”

Shame” She smirked and shook her head. “No wonder he continues to run back to me. Obviously, you don’t have what it takes to keep or please a man.!”

“If a man’s loyalty is contingent on the activities in between his bedsheets, then I don’t WANT HIM.! So, I freely give him to you.!”

“I already have him.” She yelled as her face turned red.

I simply smiled and replied. “Until he tires of you.!” And walked away.!

Background Information for your FYI.!

Two months prior to Corbin and I’s break up I was on a plane headed home from London, when I received a call from a mutual friend of ours, Zach.

**Two Months Ago…

I slowly boarded the plane after a long and tiring day. I just finished a fashion show and I was exhausted, sleepy, and hungry. I was almost asleep when there was an incoming call from Zach.

“Hello” I answered tiredly.

“Hey Girlfriend, so do you plan on keeping my boy all to yourself tonight, or are you sharing?” I was confused?! What?

“Zach, honey, are you OK because I’m...I’m confused. What?”

“I am throwing a party tonight, Corbin said he didn’t know if he could make it, because he didn’t know if you had other plans.”

I was even more confused, I had been away for the past two weeks and Corbin knew I wouldn’t get home until late tomorrow morning.

“No, Zach I do not have any plans, Corbin is free to do as he pleases.”

“Oh...Thank Goodness. Thank-You!”

I laughed. “You’re Welcome, Goodbye.”

I fell asleep shortly after our brief conversation, later I woke up to numerous of Messages and Snaps. Most of the content was from Zach’s party and a few of them were very interesting. Suddenly, I get another call from Zach.

“Skylar, what the Firing Squad?! I’ve been trying to get in contact with you for the past two hours.” He asked, frustrated. What was wrong?

“Zachery, are you OK, what’s wrong?”

“Did you not receive my messages, where are you, and why are you not here?!”

“Umm...Well, I am currently somewhere across the ocean, I just finished a show in London and I was not invited.!”

“Don’t play with me, Skylar Ocean.!”

“I just woke up Zach, gosh, calm down and tell me what’s bothering you.”

“READ THE MESSAGES..!!!” He yelled and hung up.

This better be serious or I was going to kill him.

I read over Zach’s messages, all said to call him because Collins, Corbin’s EX-Girlfriend, was trying to get in contact with me. She had asked several people for my contact information. Obviously, someone had provided her with the information because the next messages were from her. They were intimate videos of her and Corbin. I was eerily calm; strangely my mind abandoned all thought and emotion because I felt nothing.

More messages begin to come in captioned…’In Case You Needed More Proof.!’

There were more intimate videos, however, these were from prior dates; with the most recent being today and the past weeks that I had been away. I took a few moments to meditate before I called Corbin.

“Hey Baby” He answered.

“Hello Love, how are you?” I responded coolly.

“I’m OK, bored, I miss you.” He cooed.

“How is it that you are bored, did you not go out tonight?”

“I spent time with Zach for a bit, then called it an early night. I missed you.”

“Oh, did you have fun? I heard he was throwing a party, did you not go?” I questioned.

He paused before answering. “Yes, I was there briefly, but I only wanted you.”

“Oh...A few friends sent me Snaps of the night, it appeared to be a fun time. I apologize you were not able to fully enjoy yourself from thoughts of me.”

“I wished you were there, everything’s better with you.” He spoke softly.

“I know a few who would strongly disagree.” I chuckled humorlessly. “Allow me to show you.”

Shortly after I hung up, I sent Corbin the videos Collins sent me. He called me back immediately.

“Baby, I can explain.!”

“Baby.” He called again.

“I am waiting for your explanation.”

“I was drunk, Sweetheart, and I didn’t have a clear frame of mind. You know I would never intentionally hurt you.!”

“At one point I would have agreed, but from what I just saw I believe we both can agree that something has changed.”

“Baby, I swear to you that I would have NEVER done anything like that to you sober. It was an accident, I promise; Baby please believe me!”

I chuckled, unimpressed.

“I would but I know for a fact that you are still lying to me. It saddens me that even now you can’t tell me the truth.”

“Where is the LIE?”

“ALL OVER EVERY statement you just made, Corbin! Please, do not talk to me as if you didn’t know any better.”

“Skylar, I just told you what happened, STOP assuming there is something more, let’s not turn this into something that it is not!” The audacity of the man.

“You did, but you weren’t honest with me and there is nothing that I have to assume about Corbin, I saw the videos just as you and now you are trying to deny the truth.”

“Skylar, are you NOT listening, I just said…”

“Then STOP saying.! I am finished with this conversation and I am finished with…”

“Don’t you dare say it!” He interrupted.

I was growing frustrated and tired of him repeating the same lies.

“I apologize to you; I am sorry Baby for what happened tonight, I promise it won’t happen again. As for the other videos, they were from the time she and I were together.”

“You are still lying to me and I’m over it. You are trying to imply that those other videos were of a later time and date than what was said. She could have possibly altered the dates, I would give you that if it was not for the fact that you just moved and the shirt that was laying on the floor was the one I just brought for you.!”

“Baby, listen…” He began. 

“Please Corbin, just stop, you are starting to hurt my feelings and a break would be best, for the both of us. I need time to heal and you need time to discern what it is that you want.”

“No!”

“I wasn’t asking!”

These memories were running through my mind when I felt myself being grabbed and came face to face with Corbin. Seriously, he was starting to really upset me, why was he so persistent with me, how many more times did he desire to hear NO.?!

“Skylar, why have you been ignoring me.?!”

“Corbin, one would assume it was because I didn’t want to talk to you.”

“Did you block me.?!

“I did.”

“Why.?!”

“Again, I do not desire to talk to you.!”

“Stop with the pettiness Skylar and let’s be adults about this. You are acting like a child.”

“And, you’re acting like an ass.” I countered.

“I don’t know what your problem is but you need to stop.!”

“Corbin, you are my problem. I only asked that you remain completely honest with me, and you couldn’t do that. Now all that I desire from you, is for you to respect my wishes and leave me alone.!”

“Is there another man, have you found someone else to warm your bed that you are so willing to let me go, to throw us away and everything we worked for.?!”

He was starting to give me a headache.

“No, Corbin, you did that, the moment you decided that I was not enough. The moment you chose to s*x another. The moment you broke EVERY promise that you made.” I emphasized.

“I am so, so sorry Skylar, please Baby, allow me to fix this.”

“No, Corbin.” I spoke softly, I disliked this so much.! “I told you at the beginning of our relationship, that trust was something that didn’t come easy for me. I forgive you, I do, but I can’t forget. You only had one chance to hold my heart and that was the chance I gave when I agreed to be yours.”

I felt extremely lightheaded and faint.

“Skylar…” was the last thing I heard Corbin say before I no longer heard or saw anything.

...Christian...

Matteo was able to locate the University my Princess was attending and scheduled an appointment with the school dean.

“Hello, Yes, please come in, how may I help you.?!”

“Hello, I am Matteo Martina and this is Christian A’Crista. We are here to inquire about one of your students.”

“Which one would that be?”

“Skylar Ocean Sinclair” I interjected, her name rolled off my tongue so smoothly.

“Oh...Yes, of course, she is a very bright and ambitious student. What is it that you desire to know.?”

“We only desire her class schedule; Mr. A’Crista has come for her, it is imperative that he sees her.”

“Oh...Well, I could just call for her if it is of the utmost urgency.” She negotiated.

“Oh...No Ma’am, that will not be necessary; we don’t want to disturb her in class, if you could just assist us on her schedule it would be much more appreciated.”

“Well of course, but this is an exam week, she would most likely be in the common room or the study hall at this time.”

She proceeded to do as we asked and soon we were out of her office.

As we were making our way out of the office and towards the Common Area I saw her car in student parking. I debated whether to wait for her there when suddenly I felt an immense amount of irritation and it was not from me. I was contemplating this reaction when I sensed her. I quickly turned and there she was. She appeared to be in a very heated discussion with another man and this infuriated me beyond belief. I was making my way to her when suddenly she fainted. In the blink of an eye, I was holding her before she could hit the ground, not caring who saw or what they thought of it. A friend, I’m assuming, quickly approached her side.

“What happened to her.?!” She turned to ask me.

“She fainted.” I replied. Then she begins to fuss over my Babygirl. I fully secured Skylar in my arms and made my way to my Bently.

“Excuse Me, but where do you think you are taking her.?!”

“I am taking her home with me.”

“Thank You, but NO, I will take her home with me. If you could just place her in the car I would greatly appreciate it.!”

I smiled at her. “Who are you.?”

“I am Halo, her best friend, who are you, and what do you think you are doing.?! Please stop.! She is clearly not well and I don’t want to argue with you over this.” She stated as she noticed I was still walking towards my car; she was very unhappy.

“I am Christian. And, as I said before I am taking her home, however, if you are uncomfortable with this arrangement and desire to come along, you are more than welcome.”

She stared at me as if noticing me for the first time. Many emotions contorted her face as she looked at me in wonderment and a slightly questioning gaze. Her response was no different than many others; they wondered at the beauty they saw, transfixed and enthralled. Too tempted and trapped by lust, to notice or care about the darken danger that was me.”

“I...Well, she needs her medicine; I will go and get them.” She finally responds.

I carefully opened the door and gently placed Skylar in her seat, while a guard opened the door for her friend on the other side. Just as I was about to close the door, the man from earlier appeared before me, anger shown all over his face.

“What the hades do you think you are doing with my girlfriend.?!” 

Oh...Girlfriend...OK.! I smirked at him and closed the door. This boy didn’t know who he was talking to, but I was about to make him very aware of the fact. My Lycan had been angered and I relished in it.! I stalked up to him with accurate precision, intent, and motivation furthering each step. Slowly he stepped away from me as onlookers gathered around to watch.

“Listen to me and listen to me well, for this is the ONLY warning that I will give. Stay away from Skylar! NEVER again will you approach her or I promise you, that will be your last encounter with life!” I smiled menacingly at him.

“No lack of understanding, Yes.?!” He quickly shook his head and scampered away.

I then turned on my heels and made my way to my car. Scooping Skylar in my arms, I held her. My heart was bursting with feelings and emotions I couldn’t place, my mind reeling with thoughts I found distracting, and my body filled with intimacy, greater than that of any s****l desire and I knew without any doubt that this beautiful girl laying in my arms was mine.!

***Author's Note***

"Beloved Readers, I wanted to give some background information on the story, so you would have a fuller understanding of the things you were reading. This should have been done at the beginning of the story, so I apologize for my carelessness."

-Lycanthropes (Lycans) are the most dangerous supernaturals; they have ALL the abilities of Werewolves, just in advanced degrees; sometimes doubled or tripled. They are often described to be more muscular, powerful, and possessive with charming, panty-dropping, and dangerously good looks.

-Erasthai's are Lycans Beloved's, their Significant Other.! Usually, the sudden, fierce, and possessive attraction is sensed; like a light being shown in a darkened room, finding water in the desert, or a fur coat on a long and cold winter’s night.

Their love for one another is nothing a human being could possibly begin to imagine or describe, however, I hope to portray such love and affection through word and imagery.

I sincerely hope you enjoy the story!

Until Next Time..! :)
