to get him to look at her which was not a really easy feat him being at least a foot taller than her.

Lucas glanced at her, "Maybe." He answered making his brothers laugh which made him glare at them, "Yes I think your eyes are beautiful." He admitted as he looked down at her.

"Oh come on Lucas," Nick said exasperated, "You talked about her non stop for ten minutes, you didn't even let me get a word in edge wise." He said pushing Lucas.

Lily stared up at him and couldn't help the smile that light up her face, "Did you really talk about me for ten minutes non stop?" She asked him and only got a shrug making Lily roll her eyes, "Whatever, seeing as I got kicked out on my first day of school I'm going to go for a run. See you." She said and walked off towards her car and got in.

Lucas stared after her before taking off behind her, "Mind if I join you?" He asked her when he stood next to her car.

Lily looked up at him before smiling and opening the passenger door, "Sure." She said as she started the car. Once he was settled in the car and her stuff was in the back seat, which she had totally forgotten to grab from him, she pulled out of the parking spot and headed out of the school parking lot.

"Do you know a good place to go for a run?" He asked her and smiled when she shook her head, "There's the national forest, it's pretty close by." He said and punched in the directions in her GPS.

Lily followed the directions and twenty minutes later, her pockets were ten bucks lighter as she parked the car and got out, "It's mainly trails," Lucas said as he stood next to her watching her look over the trees.

"That's fine," She said as she slipped her shoes off and threw them into the car through the open window, "Let's go." She said and took off through the trail with Lucas a couple of steps behind her.

Lucas followed after her, keeping an eye out for any wild animals or worse. Lily, one of the last Fae in the western hemisphere would be protected at all costs. Many would want her dead unfortunately they'd have to go through Lucas. She skidded to a halt and looked over her shoulder at him throwing him a sexy smile over her shoulder, "Were we even supposed to leave?" She asked him as she turned to fully face him.

"No, my brothers and I usually end up getting kicked out during one class or another." He said with a shrug as she walked back over to him.

"So you guys are like the resident bad boys." She said with a wicked smile as she wrapped her arms around his neck, flipping her hair out of the way she leaned in and chuckled when she felt him take a deep breath and hold it, "I'm not going to kiss you." She said and backed away from him.

Lucas hadn't been able to think when she'd gotten so close to him, "Well," He cleared his throat, "We should head back."

Lily chuckled and grabbed hold of his hand as they headed back towards the car, "I bet that the girls in that school drool all over your brothers and you." She said as the car came into view. Letting go of Lucas' hand she walked over, grabbed her shoes and popped the trunk throwing them in she grabbed a pair of wipes and cleaned her feet before grabbing her red flip flops and putting them on.

Lucas watched her with a frown. How could she be so carefree after what had happened to her mother? Everyone in the supernatural knew that her mother had been killed. Killing a Fae was like killing a unicorn, something so innocent should never spill blood on the ground. His eyes raked her body, he could understand the glory people sought when they killed them, but who could harm them once they looked into those eyes. So pure, so innocent, they seemed to stare right into your soul, "I wouldn't know about the whole drooling part." He replied with a shrugged, "The girls in school may be a bit disappointed when they hear that you left school with me on your first day."

Lily looked back at him, "Oh well," She shrugged and got in the car, "Well are you coming?" She said as she started the car and put the top down, "You can drive." She said as she climbed over to the passengers side.

Lucas smiled and got in, "So where to?" He asked her as he put the car in reverse and backed out of the parking spot.

"Up to you. I don't know anyone except for your brothers and you, so I wouldn't know where to go." She said as she settled back in the seat as he pulled out of the parking lot, her hair whipping around them. Chapter 2

Lily looked at Lucas from the corner of her eyes as he drove through the small town that they called home heading towards the outer edges of it where houses were miles apart and some covered by trees from view. His eyes met hers and smiled before looking back at the road, "You live out here?" She asked him curiously as the tress became thicker. Sighing she looked up at the sky. Blue sky and a few white clouds that blocked the sun every once in a while.

"Yeah, my brothers like to throw parties on the weekends and since the neighbors are far away we don't get the cops called on us." Lucas said with a cheeky grin as he pulled into the driveway of a large cedar house and turned the car off before looking over at Lily.

"Oh." She said looking over at him with a smile.

"Yeah, actually we're having one this Friday, you should come by. Better yet I'll pick you up." Lucas said before she could say no to him.

Lily smiled, "Is the big bad wolf nervous that I'll say no?" She asked him and watched him blush.

"Umm." He said and looked away from her still blushing.

Lily couldn't help the laugh that bubbled up, "It's alright Lucas, I'll definitely be there." She answered him and nearly laughed again at his relieved look.

"You want to come in, my brothers should be home by now." Lucas said as he opened the door and got out.

"What about your parents?" She asked him as she followed him up the short flight of stairs that led to the front door.

"They're...traveling." Lucas said as he opened the front door and was punched in the face by Nick, "Damn it Nick what the hell was that for?"

"It's your turn to cook and you took forever coming back." He said and stomped away into the living room where Silas was laughing hysterically.

Lucas wiped the blood from his nose as he looked over at Lily who stood frozen in the doorway with s terrified look on her face, "Are you ok?" She whispered as she took a step forward, cupped his face in her hands and tilted it this way and that making sure he had stopped bleeding.

Lucas smiled, "I'm fine." He whispered back as he took her hands in his own and led her into the kitchen, "Anything in particular that you want to eat?" He asked her as he searched through the cabinets and refrigerator.

"No thanks," Lily said waving off the offer of food. She didn't really have to eat, she only did it for her aunts sake. The lady would probably have a fit if she didn't touch her food. Her aunt became insulted pretty easily when it came to her food. Fae only ate when mated.

"Kay." Lucas said and grabbed a bag of Lays for himself as he sat down at one of the bar stools in front of the island and motioned for her to join him.

She smiled before she sat down and glanced around the kitchen, "So about your parents.." Lily said trailing away as her gaze landed on a picture of a man and woman wrapped around each other in a kiss, bathed in moonlight the woman wore a beautiful white dress and the man wore a black tuxedo. It was a wedding photo, "I didn't know wolves married their mates." She said as she held out her hand towards the picture, it disappeared and then reappeared in her hand.

"Most don't, if they don't love each other. My parents on the other hand had loved each since they were kids so it was pretty easy for them when they found out they were each others mates." Lucas said with a shrug, "My brother's and I are hoping for the same thing." He said looking at her with a soft smile.

Lily blushed, "So how do you know someones your mate?" She asked him curiously as she stood and put the picture back where it was and began to wander the kitchen.

"Well you kiss," He said and looked away from her, "Sometimes, you just know." He looked back at her and his golden eyes where now silver as he stared at her.

"Oh," She whispered, "Do you think I'm your mate?" she asked him softly as she walked over to him and grabbed the bag of chips out of his hands and set them on the island before grabbing his hands in her own.

Lucas nodded hesitantly. He didn't want to scare her away, but he couldn't help how he felt. He had sensed her when she'd walked into the school. No he was lying to himself, he had sensed her the moment she had reached the town. Lily smiled at him before she leaned down and kissed him. He growled and pulled her close instantly. She was his mate. An electric charge flowed through him and he knew the same had happened to her because she pulled away on a soft cry and electricity lanced out of her fingertips making a loud crackling noise.

Slowly Lucas pulled back and stared down at her, "Are you okay?" He whispered softly as he lifted her hand to his lips and kissed her fingertips which were a bit red.

"Yeah," She said as she closed her eyes and shuddered, "That felt weird. All that electricity." She shuddered again and looked down at their joined hands before hissing and dropping his hand blew cool air over her fingertips as intricate swirls of lavender and turquoise appeared there, matching the ones Lucas had on his own fingertips, "What does this mean?" She said holding her hand out to him so he could see what had appeared.

"You're my mate." He replied taking hold of her hand and
