Kill that one! This time it was a shout, and I automatically unclenched my jaw. Inwardly, I winced when Robert took the opportunity to join in, tearing into one of my hind legs. Twisting, I swiped his face, letting his own surprise take him before I shook him off me. The damned son of a bitch had a death grip on my leg though, and it took more force.
Thatās when I heard it, the sounds of wolves howling in the distance and knew I had to finish this quickly, enough games. In a hurry, I shoved the Omega Iād bitten, not with enough force to do fatal damage, but heād be knocked out. I was correct; he flew into the trees, knocking three before he slumped. The second Omega was too easy, he merely ran.
Smart pup, that one.
Now, for the kill. The excitement coursing through me was sinful, but I didnāt care. Avenging my mate was theonly thing on my mind as I stalked his retreating form. I gave him credit though, he didnāt run. He was beingā¦brave. Or perhaps he knew Iād catch him easily. Circling his form, I didnāt expect for him to leap forward, sinking his teeth into my shoulder before I shook him off, but surprise, surprise. The wound barely registered to my clouded mind. I saw red, craved death.
Launching myself further, ready to finish the deed, I snarled in confusion when I was lashed backwards, going through numerous trees until I rolled uselessly. Snarling louder, I finally saw the form of another large, Alpha Lycan. As soon as the dangerous red faded from my vision, I noted this particular wolf was entirely white; Jason.
'Itād be a pleasure to take your life right now, but Iāve got my eye on someone better. I thought furiously. Move.' To my disdain, the other stood his ground, size almost equivalent to my own, black eyes glowing with the same Alpha statues. For a second, betrayal spiked my conscious, because he was supposed to be on my side. I narrowed my eyes, brushing the pesky emotion off. I didnāt fucking need him anyway.
'As much as that unnerves me, I wonāt let you kill him, Bastien. Heās a fucking Omega, are you stooping so low as to kill beneath you? And what about my father? You ready to die? Use that head of yours, the Alpha will not hesitate to end your piss-poor life.'
I knew, in a better state of mind, Robert wasnāt worth the effort, but heād harmed what was mine to protect and that went against mate laws. I should be allowed to kill him I wanted to argue, but instead I let my wolf speak. Or he did before I could anyway.
'Let. Him. Try.' Simple response, difficult best-friend.
'Cāmon Alpha, I know itās you. Seb wouldnāt be so stupid. Wouldnāt do that to me, or his mother and sisterā¦Wouldnāt let his father win, let everyone in France know he didnāt become the better Alpha.' I listened intently, fighting off my stronger instincts. He was right. 'Sebastien, you wouldnāt do that to your Rosa āyour mate. She canāt be left vulnerable, think of all the males that would ā'
I charged him so fast he didnāt get the last words out. Jealousy, defense, fury varied through me as I tackled his unresponsive body.
'Mine. No male would dare touch a damned hair on her head. And if they didā¦' I couldnāt finish, considering all the torturous things that would happen to them, whether she wanted him or not. I would kill. She was mine.
When I glanced up again, Robert was already gone and I huffed, realizing our entire conversation was a distraction from the original target and itād worked perfectly. I was Rosaās fool now. Silently, I let up, running in the opposite direction than the girl though I only wanted her comfort, hell just her presence was enough.
Anger gone, I was aware that Jason followed me. I just wanted Rosa thoughā¦It was getting old, having to wait. Why couldnāt I have mated a normal she-wolf? Why was I so fucking screwed up?
'Rosa is that way you know,' Jasonās voice was low in my head. I rolled my eyes, like I didnāt know that.
'How did you knowā¦?' It paranoid me. I did not want another male hanging around her. Not until I finished the mating. Now until everybody knew my territory.
'Bastien, youāve been drooling after the girl. Itās only obvious.'
'Jason, Iām not in the mood from your dry sense of humor.'
'Fine Mr. Grumpy-Pants, if you must know, your girlās friends snitched on you. Hailey was ready to explode when they exaggerated the tale with, āhis eyes sparkle when he looks at herā.' I snorted at that, unsure if it was entirely a lie. But Hailey, I mentally slapped myself, I was in deep shit now.
'How mad is she exactly?' I already knew the answer. Hailey was easily pissed off, particularly when it came to other girls around me. Not that I blamed her, if she thought me how I did Rosa, which she couldnāt but still, Iād be crazed with jealously. I was covetous just at other men looking at Rosa.
'Seething. Sheās gonna cause a scene.' Well, I guessed I wouldnāt have to beat her to it. Hopefully, sheād just exclude Rosa. If she valued her life, she would.
'Why are you here then? Havenāt you seen enough of me for one week?' It was supposed to be a joke, but it came out gruff, annoyed.
The other shrugged. āCause my best friends gone insane.' Real close I thought to myself with a huff. From the first time my father set eyes on me Iād gone insane.
Below the surface I could feel Jasonās discomfort. 'Really, Jay? Whatās doing?'
He sighed, slowing his pace to match my own. 'I have to goā¦'
This again?
'Donāt be such a pus- ' He cut me off with a defensive growl.
'Shut up dickhead, and let me speak. I have to go ācause my fatherās sending me away. Says I need time with other male betas.' What a load. Jason was going to prove an excellent Alpha one day, even if his idiotic parents didnāt see that clearly enough. He understood both sides of everything, he was strong, two honorable traits. The only problem, he didnāt want the fate of an Alpha like I yearned for it.
'hereās more, I pointed. He sighed again, but I didnāt press, knowing he wasnāt ready to talk about that part.
'You going then? 'We stopped just before the mountains.
'Have I a choice? 'He used to original way of speech, the proper way weād been brought up. We only used it in all seriousness anymore; he seriously thought he had no choice. Fuck that.
'I know not, have you?' It was his choice. I couldnāt make it for him this time. He dropped to the ground, eyeing my wounds, I knew because they were deep, a pain I disregarded.
'Nay.' Wrong answer.
'Then I ask that while youāre away you continue to remember that you are of an Alpha. You are a leader of all things, you life included.' He snarled at that.
'Telling damned riddles now? Where the hell is my āfigure it out yourselfā Sebastien?'
'Figure that out yourself, bastard.' He shook his head.
'While ām around, Iāll keep watch of Rosa in case of anything. I know you canāt be āround every minute, but please, donāt...' He paused. I wouldāve lifted a brow it I couldāve.
'Donāt be an idiot? Yeah, Iāve really no choice anymore.'
'How is itā¦being mated?' I inwardly smiled.
'Sheās the only girl I seeā¦This love controls my very being. Tames the wolf. She is what Iāve longed for. All I need. I canāt get her out of my head. I miss her when Iām away for more than ten minutesā¦Sheās so damned irresistible. I want her in every way possible. Mind, soul, bodyā¦God, I want her heart and her love. Just her.' When I didnāt continue, he nodded, looking considerate. If wolves could smile, Iād be grinning like a love-struck idiot.
'Maybe one day youāll find your Rosa.' He glared, black eyes full of horror.
'Nah, I er think Iāll pass. I like being alone.' You just donāt know what youāre missing yet, I thought. Nothing compared to how high and giddy I felt around mine. Itās worth forever. Talking about her, made the ache to see her stronger. Soon, I vowed silently.
'Iām really fucking sorry Jason. But maybe youāll be happier away from this placeā¦Whereās he sending you this time?'
'Montana.' Holy...fuck. That place was worse than anywhere, probably amounted to hell but without the fire or whatever. Jason nodded in agreement, obviously sensing my aversion. I never thought Iād feel so bad for another wolf, but Good Dieu it was Montana.
Only two minutes of silence passed before I was reaching the brink of lunacy, though I kept my mouth shut anyway, trying to just stay away.
'Go ahead; I know youāre dying to see her again. Iāll catch you later man.'
Apologetically, I shrugged, but sped off at lightning speed, making it to her backyard within less than fifteen minutes. And as if aware of my need to make sure she was really okay, she appeared, opening the glass doors and walking out. She looked lovely as ever. Thick relief surged over me as I plunked down, watching her. Only when I heard a splash did I realize she wasnāt alone. Fleetingly, I glanced down to see Isaac breach the water and sighed, glad that she had company, even if I wished it could be me.
The one piece bathing suit accented her curves perfectly, though it showed off more skin than Iād like. I wanted to be the only one to see those legs, to āWhen she slipped into the pool, and came up giggling prettily, I sighed happily, centered on the unlikely best friends splashing each other, pleased with just that. Just her happiness was enough for me. I was practically purring every time she blessed both me and Isaac with her laughter, so completely lost in her. My perfect mate.
When her mother, the slightly annoying woman, announced it was time for Isaac to go, I agreed. She needed to sleep, it was unhealthy. It was just a little lost sleep, I argued with myself, shaking it off as Rosa exited the pool, hair a darker shade wet, more brown, than blonde.
Before she followed Isaac inside, she glanced back to the direct spot I was. The longing in those eyes shocked me, and instantly, I froze because surely she hadnāt seen meā¦
As if answering my thoughts, she shook her head and went inside, allowing the tension to leave me. Until sunrise, I dosed off, thatās when I returned home, washing the scent of outdoors from my body and hair. The bite mark on my shoulder was still fresh as well as the slight limp in my left leg, the healing process taking slightly longer with Lycan saliva infecting the areas.
āStupid fucking Omegas,ā I muttered blankly.
From there, I dressed, expectantcy flooding my body as I become conscious of the fact that I would get to actually talk to her againā¦School wasnāt going to be that annoying after all.
Crazed Girlfriends (Rosa):
āYouāre wearing it, Rosalina!
