“Leo, please, stop. I, I can’t take it anymore. Don’t lead me on if you have no intention of catching me,” she whispered. His heart dropped, he wasn’t trying to lead her on, he truly loved her, but his ongoing battle with himself prevented him from truly loving her. His mind wanted one thing and his body the other. He sighed, getting up. Walking over to the door, he turned back around. Taylor was hugging herself quietly on the edge of the bed. Before he could stop himself, he was grabbing Taylor, kissing her warm lips. He wrapped his arms around her waist. Pushing her against him, he tried to remove any unwanted space. Taylor’s arms slid up his chest, wrapping them around his neck. He let go of her lips and began kissing her jawline down to her neck. He kissed her collarbone lightly before coming back up to her lips. Taylor stumbled back, and they went falling onto the bed.
Leo turned himself over while in the air, causing Taylor to land on him. He looked at her deep chocolate brown eyes.
“I love you Taylor Daniels,” he whispered, burying his head into her hair. She giggled, before replying,
“I love you too Leo Knight, no matter how much of a doofus you are!” She giggled again.
“But I’m an extremely hot doofus!” Leo whined.
“True, but you’re still a doofus!” She whispered into his ear, sending shivers down his spine. Before he could kiss her neck, she sprang up out of his grasp and ran off.
“Taylor, I’m gonna get you!” He laughed, chasing her. She wasn’t that far away, so he used his werewolf speed and caught her, lifting her in the air and pulling her back to his room. They both laughed, out of breath, on the bed. Taylor turned to her side, wrapping her arm around him.
“You know, I tried so hard to not fall for you, but you’re stupid charm got me anyway!” She grumbled, burying herself in his chest. He wrapped a protective arm around her waist.
“You’re beautiful face didn’t help much either,” He agreed, kissing the top of her head lightly.
“That’s a lie, I’m not nearly as beautiful as the girls who drool over you!” She scoffed.
“Are you kidding! They’re ugly compared to you! You don’t even need makeup to look gorgeous, while they need makeup just to look half decent.” He tilted her chin up, kissing her lips softly.
“You’re perfect the way you are, please don’t ever change,” he added, kissing her neck again.
“Only if you don’t either,” she grinned. He laughed, and kissed her again.
“Alright loverboy, I’ve got homework to finish and so do you. Let’s get started,” she got up, grabbing her backpack off the floor. I sighed, staring at her from behind.
Chapter 14 (Taylor’s POV)
Taylor felt his eyes looking at her from behind. She turned around, facing him,
“Get off you’re perverted lazy ass, and get some homework done!” She scolded, placing a hand on her hip. Leo followed her gaze and smirked. ‘Dammit, don’t draw attention to your hips Taylor!’ He smirked again.
“Oh by the way, did I tell you my special power was being able to read and control people’s minds?” Taylor looked shocked. ‘So that’s how he always knew my thoughts!’
“Yep that’s why. I tried not to listen to you, but your thoughts are so loud in my head, it’s hard not to ignore them!” He laughed. She shook her head, and went over to the study. She pulled out her homework. Leo sat beside her in the study. As she did her homework, he stared at her. She glanced up, and saw him smiling. Leaning in, she kissed him passionately, their tongues playing in each other’s mouths. Leo pulled her onto his lap as they continued to make out. Finally, Taylor pulled away.
“Now that you got your kiss, can you start some homework please? I’ll give you more if you do your homework” Leo hurriedly grabbed his books out of his bag and started his homework. She smiled, giving him a quick peck on the cheek before returning back to her work.
Chapter 15
A pair of keys jiggled right in front of Taylor as she was eating breakfast. Looking up, Taylor finally noticed the holder of the keys.
“Zane? What are you doing here?” She questioned, eyebrows raised.
“I forgot to mention, I’m Leo’s older brother,” He smiled sheepishly back at her. She remembered the first time she’d met him, back when she caught Leo with the blonde chick in the pool house. How did she not notice their similar features before? Zane’s strong jaw and hitched eyebrows matched Leo’s. Zane seemed to take after his mother, with soft blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Leo got his brown hair and blue-green eyes from his father. But didn’t Zane say he was a family friend? ‘Guess he’s more family than friend’ Taylor thought while rolling her eyes.
“Wait...why are you giving me these keys?” She asked Zane.
“Because, unless you want to leech off my baby brother, I suggest you take a look at the car first,” He smirked, his baby blue eyes gleaming with mischief.
Hesitantly, Taylor took the keys, and walked outside. In the driveway, stood a shiny, white Audi with purple streaks lining the sides. Its rims were shiny silver. Taylor looked at her keys, then back at the car before unlocking it. The inside was breathtaking. The seats were black with purple trim all around the inside. The smell of cherry blossom hung in the air, which Taylor figured out, came from the small scent tree hung on the rearview mirror. But that wasn’t the only thing that hung on the mirror. A small net with a soccer ball inside it hung on the mirror as well. ‘Gorgeous,’ Taylor sighed, ‘completely, and utterly, gorgeous,’
Smiling like a million watts, Taylor jumped up and hugged Zane. A growl came from behind them. Rolling his eyes, Zane set her back down onto the ground. Leo was glaring at them. Taylor ran up to him and jumped onto him, all traces of jealousy gone, only to be replaced by confusion and enjoyment. Taylor laughed before placing a kiss on his cheek. He smiled up at her before looking back at Zane. Taylor nudged him playfully.
“You might wanna stop doing that, jealous boy,” she teased.
“I’m not jealous! I just uh-“Leo stammered. His flustered face caused Taylor to giggle again. He shot her an annoyed look. She bit her tongue, trying to control her laughter.
“Well, I’ll leave you two girls alone,” Zane smirked, before heading to his steel silver Range Rover next to Taylor’s car. After watching his car drive away, she ran into her car, shouting a quick goodbye to Leo.
*********
Pulling up in the school parking lot, Taylor scanned the crowd. Leo was standing with the jocks and cheerleaders, like always. She parked the car and crossed over the parking lot, heading straight for the doors. Before she could go inside, a warm hand wrapped around her waist, pulling her close.
“Hey babe, we have to start training after school, so make sure you’re home by 3,” his husky voice said; Taylor instantly identified it as Leo’s.
“Okay, bye!” She tried prying his arm off, but he just turned her and kissed her lips quickly, before letting her go. She smiled back at him, then walked up to her locker to grab her things.
**********
“Hey Tay!” A voice called from behind her. She had just finished grabbing her things from her locker. The school day went by quickly and she was hoping to try out for soccer after class. Looking up, she spotted the mischievous, warm eyes of her older brother. Matt was looking as gorgeous since the first day she met him. Taylor couldn’t help but chuckle at the wide eyes of the majority of teenage girl population ogling at Matt as he walked towards Taylor. Matt, on the other hand, seemed completely oblivious to their stares.
“Hey, I thought I’d come pick my baby sister up from school!?” Matt chuckled. The small group of sophomore girls across from Taylor’s locker stopped glaring when they heard ‘sister’. Taylor giggled before turning back to Matt.
“Sorry Matt, I’m trying out for soccer. You can stay and watch if you like?”
“Aw, Tay of course I will! I can’t wait to see my sister kick some ass on the field!” Taylor punched him playfully.
“You know I will! Soccer players kick grASS!” Taylor laughed at her own pathetic joke, which was soon followed by Matt’s hearty laughter as well. This seemed to catch the attention of the onlookers in the hallway, adding to the girls who continued to eye up Matt like a piece of meat. Some of the onlookers, a group of junior guys, seemed to check out Taylor. Almost simultaneously, she heard two low growls, one from Matt, and another from behind. She understood why matt would growl, being the overprotective brother he was, but who had growled from behind? Turning, Taylor caught sight of Leo. Staring into his eyes, she seemed to forget about the scene around her. It was just her and Leo, Leo and her. Walking up to them, he snaked a possessive arm around Taylor’s waist, glaring daggers at the poor human boys that were eyeing Taylor before.
‘Leo, stop, they’re just guys,’ Taylor said through mindlink. Ever since she discovered that Mates could share thoughts and communicate with one another through their minds, she used it to her advantage. But the downside was Leo kept prodding into her mind like a surgeon to a patient. Some things were meant to be private, but until she could figure out how to block her mind, she was stuck with Leo reading her like an open book.
‘Hell yeah, so don’t even think about hiding things from me.’ Leo smirked at her playfully while sending that message into her head.
‘Ugh, boys’ replied Taylor while glaring in Leo’s direction, only to increase his smirk to a full on grin. Sighing in defeat, she quickly grabbed her bag and headed towards the locker rooms.
“Hey where you going?” Leo called from behind. “I’m trying out for the soccer team,” Taylor replied.
“Oh, well I have football practice. I’ll pick you up after tryouts. Can’t wait to see my girl on the fields,” He replied, going off towards the boys locker room. Taylor entered the locker room and quickly changed into a pair of black shorts and a grey tank top. She pulled on a pair of shin guards, long socks, and some purple and grey cleats. Picking up her practice bag, she shoved water, her clothes, her shoes, and her cell phone in. Jogging off towards the field, she saw a couple of familiar faces. Natasha, a girl she recognized from English class, smiled warmly at Taylor. Taylor smiled back, jogging up to her.
“I didn’t know you were into soccer?” Natasha smiled. “I was until my sophomore year in high school. I stopped after that so I could focus on school, but since it’s senior year, I thought, why not?”
“Yay! I can have a new buddy on the team!” Natasha beamed, locking
