His Little Wolf

Can't stop thinking about you

LUCA’S POV

—

I never felt so much hatred towards myself before , but locking my mate behind a door , it felt like I was imprisoning her and that isn’t who I want to be .

On the other hand , I can’t let her go , I can’t stand the thought of her being so far from me .

She is mine .

Griffin clears his throat , ‘Ours .’ He corrects me and I roll my eyes .

I know it’s his mate too , but the human version is mine , the human version I just locked up .

' Boo hoo .' Griffin mutters sarcastically and I can't tell if he's just after her wolf and doesn't care about Novalie herself or if he's genuinely heartless .

' I am not heartless .' He seethes , ' Your little human just isn't my problem . Her wolf on the other hand , well she's my everything .' he lets out a small a-woo , making me cringe .

Griffin has never been the kind to swoon over anyone .

' I can be romantic .' he tries to keep his head high , but I know better . Every other girl is just a good for a night until he's tired and makes me kick her out .

' I only sleep next to my mate , can we go get her ?' he asks excitedly .

" No ." I scoff , I think he already forgot that Novalie tried to run away from me .

He keeps quiet as I climb into the bed , but I can't help but think of her .

Her blonde hair looks so shiny in the moon light , I honestly don't know how I pictured her , but she's even more beautiful than I expected . Having her so close to me , n***d , took all of my strength to not glance down at her body .

I could tell she was afraid of me and it honestly killed me . I didn't like it one bit , it felt like she saw me as a monster and I guess if she grew up as a human , it would be natural for her to think that .

I can't even imagine what she thinks of herself .

' It must have been so hard for her .' Griffin's sarcasm has me rolling my eyes .

It probably has been hard .

I wouldn't be able to think clear if it had happened to me .

' The real question is , why did her wolf never tell her about our life ?' Griffin asks and for once , he has a smart question .

We should ask her that .

' Can we go ask her now ?' The excitement in Griffin's voice has me chuckling , if we were shifted , he probably would be wagging his tail like a happy dog .

' I would not .' He grits out , making me laugh as I turn on my side , sliding my arm underneath my pillow and I clutch it closer .

I wonder if she'd be able to sleep ..

Half an hour and I am still rolling around in bed , worrying about my mate that's right above me .

I can't help but crave her , my whole body feels the pull towards her and I wish I could just sneak in to her room and crawl into bed with her , holding her tightly , smelling her scent .

I don't know when I got up , but I'm out of the door and I head up the stairs , my breathing shallow as I stand in front of the locked door .

I lift the wooden plank keeping the door locked , not very secure , but it's strong and I push the door open , finding her sitting on the bed , staring out the window .

I notice how her body tenses up and I feel like an i***t , why did I think she would be sleeping ?

" What do you want ?" she breathes out , holding her knees to her chest .

" You ." I inhale a deep breath , not being able to believe I just said that out loud .

Her shoulders shake as she scoffs , the sound of her breathing through her nose has me grinning .

It's cute .

" I am not someone you can just take ." the anger dripping from her words has my blood raising .

She is someone I can take , she's mine .

' Yes , please make her fear you more .' Griffin scoffs and I hate that he's right , if I say that , she will be scared of me .

" I want to get to know you ." I try to cover up my stalkerish behavior and she sighs , her shoulders sinking down .

" Well I want to go home , I guess we can't get what we want ." she shrugs and I roll my eyes . Her blonde hair cascading down her back looks darker in her shadow and I step forward .

" Well the first thing I know is that you're very brave ." I tell her , because she is . No human who is kidnaped would be this calm .

" I am ?" she asks confused , I guess no one has ever told her that .

" And smart ." I tell her , taking another step closer , the side of her face now in my view and I notice how the side of her lip twitches up into a smile .

I made her smile , that's good right ?

' If you want to be friend zoned .' Griffin scoffs and my confidence takes a dip . Why could he never just be encouraging ?

' Not my cup of tea .' he murmurs and I try to ignore him .

" I know that ." she murmurs , her eyebrows lightly raising . Her skin looks so soft , I want to hold her cheek , to rub my thumb over her soft skin .

" And also very beautiful , kind and cheeky ." Her head snaps around , her lips agape as she stares at me with narrowed eyes .

" How dare you call me cheeky !" her eyebrows furrow together and a low chuckle escapes my lips .

" I called you beautiful and kind , but cheeky was the only thing you heard ." I c**k my head at her , dragging my tongue over my top lip as a smile creeps up my face .

" Well if you insult someone , that is the first thing they would hear ." she rolls her eyes , turning her face away from me .

" Well if someone told me I was a handsome asshole , I would thank them for complementing me on being handsome just to spite them ." I grin and her head slowly nods up and then back down , " So you're a smartass ." she chuckles , shaking her head .

" Sometimes ." I shrug , taking another step forward and I stand next to her , staring out the window but I can't stop my eyes from flicking down to her as she sits on the bed .

She is absolutely gorgeous and the moon light falling onto her has my c**k twitching .
