Chapter 186: Mine Mine Mine

Rex.

Freida drags him away from me.

She is really taking a liking to him.

One that I wish she wouldn’t.

"You really brought a guy as a plus one,’’ Devon mutters evilly.

He loves to be a bully. I don’t really understand how a nerd would like to mock and bring his kind down. He is not cool. He has his own fair share of tormentors at school but somehow it is his mission to make my life miserable.

Not that I give a shit.

He has the mouth but that is all he has.

I am not scared of him.

"He is a friend. Not that you would know what that is.’’ I give him back the same energy he has been giving me since I got here.

A couple of people around us chuckle. I look around, this scene is not my idea of a party. This is the most boring party I have ever come to. I don’t think we will stay here for more than an hour. I mean, Freida did drag me here, so I am sure she wouldn’t mind.

My eyes shift back to them, not interested in the conversation going on in the crowd I chose to stay in. Gyles is watching me. he looks a little bit weird. I can’t put my finger on it but it seems like something is bothering him. I watch them until Freida comes over to me, he is still watching me as she grabs my arm and squeals into my ear "God he is perfect,’’ she giggles "can I have him?’’

She asks me like I have a say in who gets him. Gyles shouldn’t be with anyone right now. He has a lot to get used to. I know he probably doesn’t care about her. he has been staring at me all this while. That must mean something.

You know you have been the one staring.

My wolf shouts to me. It seems to be louder when I am near Gyles. What is that about? I am going to ignore him right now because I don’t want to admit that yet. Yes, I cant take my eyes off him. He is a beautiful specimen that I am stuck with.

You know you pushed him to come with you.

My wolf accuses me again.

"Shut up,’’ I forget that I am around people and they all look at me from the shock. Suddenly I don’t want to be here. I want to be home, in my bed. I don’t want to have to worry about how I feel about Gyles. I haven’t even been able to think about my kiss with Blue all day.

Fuck.

Frieda comes back with two cups in her grip. I watch her as she gives him one. I watch her as she giggles and pats his chest playfully. The jealousy I feel is insane. I don’t even need my wolf to tell me. I invited him here, why the fuck is she hogging him to herself.

Gyles leans forward and I can’t get my eyes off him as he touches her face.

The confusion sprawls on my face because I don’t even understand what is going on. Does he actually like her? I can’t see Freida but I am pretty sure she is blushing. Did I just set them up or something?

I tear my eyes away from them and back to my crowd. They are talking about some competition. I am not in the STEM club. So, I don’t even care for their conversation. A couple of minutes later, I see Gyles walk away from her. the expression on his face before he disappears scares me.

Beau said I should watch him closely. He might not react well to the crowd. There isn’t actually a crowd here but I still need to make sure he is okay.

Freida walks over to me with a smile "Bathroom,’’ she explains even though I didn’t ask.

"Why have you not told me about him before?’’

I shrug "I just met him,’’ I tell her honestly.

The only reason why she is so interested in him is because of how attractive he is. It is not like she knows anything about him.

Like you.

My wolf accuses me sternly.

Get to know him. He is mine, mine, mine.

What the fuck is going on inside me. he is claiming Gyles. My wolf is never territorial. He is calm and not over the top. This is the most I have ever heard from him.

Gyles is doing this to him.

"Can you put in a good word for me. he seems very quiet.’’ She tells me.

I don’t want to put in a good word because I don’t want her to have him. I want him for myself—fuck, did I just admit this?

Think about Blue.

Blue is the right one for you.

He is the only one.

Both of them. Mine, mine, mine.

"Sure,’’ I tell her, ignoring him completely. It makes no sense that he will claim two people at the same time. This is the greediest shit I have ever encountered.

"I’ll be right back,’’ I tell her wanting to find him. He has been gone for a while. I can’t help but worry about him. I check all the bathrooms but they are all empty. Walking around the house, scouting for him to no avail until I see the door in the kitchen slightly ajar.

Fear kicks in, what if he ran away.

Beau will kill me.

Once outside, the fear within me dissipates as I see him staring at a tree. His back to me. I go down one step "Hey,’’ I call out to him. He turns around immediately and I see it. His eyes are a bright yellow. Shining under the moonlight. It doesn’t seem like he has noticed or is even doing this on purpose. "Too much,’’ I decide to ignore it for now. It is just the two of us, no one Is here to notice this.

He nods his head immediately and suddenly I have regrets. I shouldn’t have brought him here. I didn’t do this for him. I wanted to spend time with him. This was for my own selfish reasons.

I walk closer to him and his eyes follow my footsteps "Do you want to leave?’’ I ask him, truthfully, I don’t even want to be here anymore. I guess I want to use him as an excuse to leave.

He shakes his head immediately. guess he doesn’t want to. "do you?’’ he asks. Suddenly the ball is in my court again.

"Makes no difference."

I want him to see me as a cool guy. Someone that can handle a crowd. Someone that is social. The exact opposite of me. "Freida seems to like you,’’ I want to know how he feels about her. my wolf is winning in this battle.

I look at his face, the gold still in his pupils "I don’t like her."

His admittance does something to me. something that I don’t want to show right now. He doesn’t like her. which means there is a chance.

Do I even want a chance?

Yes, you do.

My wolf screams.

I flinch internally.

This is a lot for me.

"Oh,’’ I decide to feign indifference. I watch him as he moves closer, I am unsure of what he wants to do but I don’t pull away from him. I am a fucking coward.

"I like you,’’ he mutters. I didn’t expect that. Fuck, what do I say to this? "I should not feel this way, should I?’’ he adds in question.

I don’t know what the hell to say to that.

"Your eyes are golden,’’ I blurt trying to change the topic. I don’t know if I want to talk about feelings and mates and shit right now. I don’t want to admit to him that I feel the same way. That there is a pull, that just back the fuck off.

He closes his eyes immediately and turns away from me "shit, I have been feeling weird all night.’’

I walk over to him so I can see him "How? Why didn’t you tell me,’’ I reach for his face suddenly? My hand rests on his cheek and the shine in his eyes brightens. "I am not doing anything, I swear."

I believe him.

"Are you hungry?’’ I ask him.

He knows what I am talking about.

"A little,’’ he confesses. My hand is still on his face. The chills and butterflies are attacking but my wolf won’t let me move away. The urge to do more than touch him eats at my fucking soul. This is like a drug that you know is bad for you but still crave. He is suddenly my Heroin. The cocaine that makes you go bonkers.

He grabs my hand which is still on his face. I don’t push him away. I let it happen. "You like me too." He whispers into the night.

How do I deny that when my wolf is screaming.

Yes.
