You know nothing

Chapter 8. No running away

 *Samanthas POV*

Vacation passed very quickly.

Damian haunted my dreams as every other night, trying to be even more persuasive than before... It's so hard to not just give in one of those times. I know, I promised to never give another chance for love, but dammit, he's one sexy piece of a guy.. and destined to be all mine.

Stupid Samantha! Stupid! No! Tried to scold myself, but thoughts of him didn't go away...

When the plane to New York finally landed, Ava was already waiting for me.

' Hey girl! So ... how was it? You got some or what? ' She demanded straight away, coming for a hug.

' Ava !?' She laughed.

' What? I just missed my babe.'

' Can you miss me without asking if I had s*x ?!'

' Oh alright... Let's go ,cab is waiting..'

***

' So... tell me ? How was it?' She questioned as we walked into the apartment.

' It was alright Ava , the way it should've, lots of tours , spa's, wine and etc..' She listened wide-eyed.

' What?!'

' Nothing... I wish I could come...' She said with a vibe of slight jealousy in her voice.

' Next time , you must promise me to come next time , because it was kind of lonely not to have you together..'

' Oh? So does it mean that you? So you wouldn't feel so lonely?' She asked, wiggling her eyebrows.

' Oh god ! No you monster , I'm not interested in that..'

'Yeah, right, like, do you even listen to yourself? It sounded more like, 'please, Ava, next time you come, find me someone to f*ck .' she said laughing.

' Ava !?'

' I'm done , I'm done... Relax babe, anyway , because you are home we gonna go out tonight, rejection is not acceptable !'

One more that doesn't accept rejection... great.

' What now?'

' Yup, you'll go out with me , and we gonna enjoy it , with happy ending ..'

' Ava, what the hell !' She laughed again.

'Nothing.. go to rest and we'll move at nine ..' She said.

****

Knock on the door...

' I'm coming I'm coming !' I shouted.

' Relax Sam, you need help with what you gonna wear?'

She asked, opening the door.

'There is no way you're going dressed like this !'

' Why? What is wrong with good ol jeans and leather jacket?' I demanded seeing her displeased grimace.

' Sam we are going to a club where people dance and drink , not a museum, ugh! Give me a minute..' she murmured and ran out the room.

What the hell is wrong with my clothes?! It's not like I'm going for a date or something...

' Here , put this on !? ' she exclaimed throwing a piece of black fabric to me.

' Okay momma ..'

I went to the bathroom, looked at what she gave.

' What the f*ck is this Ava !! ' heard her laughing.

' Nothing too much girl .' she said.

' Ugh!!' I put on what looks more like scraps of clothes than the actual thing.

' Ava , this is a joke not a dress..' I said leaving the bathroom.

' Let me l...' she froze when she noticed me.

' What?!'

' Daamn... If you would be open for girls, I would try to lure you to that room right now..' She said motioning to her room door.

I just stood there shocked, with blush creeping my cheeks, not knowing what to say.

'You look so sweet right now... but there is no need to blush in front of me girl, unless you wanna try something new..' She said laughing.

' Let's just go huh..?' I asked quietly.

' Alright.' She laughed again and we left.

****

' -Underground-, couldn't there be more obvious name ?' I asked chuckling.

'Funny ,yeah, but it's a good place , trust me, now let's go..' she said dragging me inside.

As we entered the club, Ava turned to the bar straight away.

' Well then , let's get something to drink and then we decide of what to do..' She offered.

' Do I even have a choice ?' I asked her letting out a breath.

' Nope.' She said shortly as we sat on the stools and called a bartender to order some fancy cocktails.

' How often do you come here?'

' Once in every few weeks , when I need to let it out you know...'

' So umm.. What now Ava?' I asked stupidly.

She cringed.

' Nothing , just , drink , enjoy, and if someone comes to talk to you , give in goddammit!'

' Hm.'

After the third glass decided that it was enough...

' Well then, I think I'll go home now..' I said and was about to stand up from the chair when...

' Oh no..' Ava raised her head to look at me.

' What? You alright?' She asked confused.

' He's here.'

How the hell can he be at the same place same time. I must be the luckiest wolf in existence...

' Who? Were you meeting someone and didn't mention to me?' She asked pretending to look shocked.

' No , but he was very persuasive in showing how much he's interested in me..' I tried to explain as much as I could without mentioning the mate part.

She followed my glance and smacked my elbow.

' Girl you stupid or something, he's a f*cking god !? If I weren't into girls...'

' You need to find the one you horny woman!' I exclaimed.

' I know and I will when the time is right... Now go and surprise him !!' she told pushing me off the chair.

Ugh! that crazy woman... I would, but I won't because I'm still unsure.

****

* Damian's POV*

' Why do you think she acts like this?' Mat asked as he was driving to one of our clubs.

' I don't know man , I think that something happened to her , something bad..'

'But she's your mate.. she should feel no fear in sharing whatever happened to her ..'

' Do you think I'm stupid Mat? I know .. But it seems not to be the case this time..'

' You are not, alpha , it's just that I know how long you waited for your mate and now she doesn't even want you..'.

' Can't you just drive?' I demanded.

***

The car had finally stopped.

' I'll just park the car and come as well.' Mat informed.

' Alright.'

***

Entering the club made me wanna smack myself right back out of there, but I collected myself on time when I smelled... her?! She is in my club!

What is she doing here... As I was looking to see where she is the scent was killing me more and more every passing second.

***

I thought my heart would explode when I finally noticed and began observing her; firstly, those red hair, already known too well, works like her distinctive mark... then, some kind of a necklace, and... FFS...

That dress hides so little, her breasts are almost entirely out, going down uh... It's so short and tight.

As I was checking out her bare legs, she stood up, and to my misfortune, she's looking straight at me, should I... Should I feel embarrassed for checking her out so shamelessly?

Nah. I Don't think so.

She looked at me for a moment, then a girl that looked like is with her glanced at me as well, they spoke for a bit, and she began pushing her off the chair in my direction... Wow... I guess at least someone sees me as a good grab.

Samantha began walking towards me, then turned to the exit, leaving no explanation of what had happened.

I began walking to her friend to try and find out what went wrong.

' What are you waiting for candy? Go after her?! ' The girl said without waiting for me to start speaking.

' We'll meet officially later , cmon ! Go! ' she encouraged me again.

I just nodded and ran after Samantha.

To my success, I didn't need to run very far as exiting the nightclub and walking just a little further by the fountain was enough to find her sitting on the steps.

' Please don't run.' I asked quietly, sitting next to her.

' I won't , I'm too drunk.' she said not looking at me.

That dress, goddess, why it's so short... !?

' Good.'

' Huh? What's good in that?' She demanded with her angelic voice.

' First of all.. Why are you dressed like that, hm?'

She laughed.

' Why should I explain it to you?' she answered with another question.

' Because I'm...'

' You are my mate , bla bla bla ...' she ended for me.

' Samantha , what is so wrong with being my mate ? We are both werewolves and know how things naturally go , it's impossible to resist fate.'

' What the hell do you know about me ? Exactly nothing , I'm not a.. mate material.'

' And there is nothing wrong with you , you are very handsome and etc.. the bond is killing me as well , and um, to be honest only you are a full werewolf.' she ended.

' I know that.' her eyes went wide.

' You.. know what?'

' That you lost half of you.. Your hair... this colour is gained only after that happens.'

' Wow... this is only a top of a mountain..' she said sarcastically.

' So tell me , I wanna know what happened to you, I wanna know everything because we suppose to spend the rest of our lives together , maybe even afterlife ..' She looked at me for a while.

' Damian..' She began.

'I'm sorry but I can't.' she added and started crying.

I crouched closer, noticing her flinch but not run away, understood as a sign that she finally gave up her wall for a moment and hugged her.

She cried nonstop.

It's cold outside... Took off my jacket and suggested it for her.

' Thank you, but .. but why won't you just give up?

' Why should I ? You are my mate , and you can't imagine how much I wanna mark you and have for the rest of our lives..'

' And what if you won't like something I might tell?' she asked with eyes still teary.

'Samantha , your past life will have no effect on ours , what you went through.. It just made you into this wonderful woman that is my mate now..'

' I.. I promised myself not give a chance for love anymore...' she told quietly.

' Why?'

' I'm not ready to speak of it , I'm sorry.'

' It's alright ,just , please , don't run from me anymore..'

' I won't..' she said apologetically.

We sat there for a while without another word...

' Alright , so , what now?' she asked.

' We could go for a walk to freshen you up first .' I suggested with a cringe.

' Alright..' She laughed as well and tried to stand up, but to no success.

' Let me help you.' I suggested standing up and tsking her into my arms.

She smiled.

Angelic smile...

' You are strong... And smell so good...' She said before fainting.
