Neveah p.o.v
I wake myself up shouting mate. Sweat dripping from me. “MATE? What the f**k dose that mean? Who was the man? What the hell was that dream in total?” I ask myself. “Earth to Neveah.” My dads voice breaking my train of thought “I’ve been shouting for you for ages now sweet.” “What?, sorry dad” I respond confused. “Your going to be late love. Ruth is waiting downstairs. Hurry quick quick” he says clapping his hands twice, before walking off and back downstairs. I get out of bed and notice that there is a wet patch, half way down the bed. My face heating up I strip my bed off and jump in the shower quick before running downstairs, chucking my bag over my shoulder. “Hi dad, bye dad.” I shout as I run past him, grab an apple and run outside jumping in Ruth’s car and heading for school. “Everything ok?” Ruth asks. “FINE.” I snap biting into my apple, avoiding eye contact at all costs. “She won’t know from eye contact ya’know, you can look at her. JEEZ, calm down.” A voice says in my head. “Sorry did you say something then Ruth?” I ask. “Who me? No way. Don’t want to risk having my head bitten off again.” She responds laughing.
Rick p.o.v
I stand at the door scratching my head. “ what got into her this morning?” Walking back into the kitchen I notice the tablet box on the side. “s**t she hasn’t had her tablets.” I say aloud grabbing them. I turn and grab the car keys when I hear the calming voice of my wife. “Don’t even think about it Rick!” She tells me. “She needs them love.” I respond. “Rick! They have no effect now. You have heard her. She is growling, calling out for her mate. It’s already happening. Her mate is close by and she can sense him. 2 more days and her wolf will be at full strength. You need to tell her the truth NOW! She tells me cupping my face with her hands. “Fine! I will talk to her tonight.” I sigh putting the keys and tablets down.
Neveah p.o.v
Been a strange day at school today. No name calling, no rubbish thrown at me, people have smiled at me and waved. It’s all so very strange I mutter to myself as walk over to the willow tree to wait for Ruth. Sitting down I rummage through my bag looking for my book. “What? Where the hell is it?” I curse at myself. “Looking for this?“ a man’s voice hits my ears. I snap my head round only to find the handsome man from my dream stood in front of me. I jump up and grab my bag. “You dropped it yesterday when you ran” he tells me smiling. I turn ready to run. “Don’t run petal, I really don’t want to have to chase you, gets me all excited you see.” He says with a wink of his eye. The scent of ginger, lavender and leather hits my nose, instantly calming me. “The names Chris, nice to meet you.” He says holding his hand out. “Neveah” I say shaking his hand. Tingling sensations shoot up my arm making me gasp and let go. “The history of werewolf’s, interesting.” He says handing me my book back. “Yeah I have a deep interest in them always have done not sure why but I like them.” I respond taking the book from him and putting it in my bag. “Looking for a lift home again Chris?”Ruths speaks. “Actually I came to see your beautiful little friend here. But if your offering I will gladly accept, cars still in the garage ya’see.” Chris smirks not breaking eye contact with me. “You have met my i***t brother then I see, come on let’s go, oh and your in the back Chris.” Ruth tells him, linking arms with me and dragging me to the car smirking at him. He growls.
