Nick POVFuck, why do I let her get to me? I need to end this bond before I go crazy. I watch her walk out, and I groan at the way her ass snakes in that dress, almost as if she doesn't have any panties. (Wait a minute, I think to myself.).(You better be wearing fucking panties under that dress, Mariah.) I mind link her. She opens the door to Taylor’s car and looks back at me with a smirk.(I don’t.) She says and winks at me, then gets in the car.I watch them leave, and I growl in frustration. (I’m going to fucking spank her ass until it’s red.) I think to myself. I call Josh to tell him that I’ll wait for him in the car, and he tells me that he will be down in five minutes. I head to the car, frustrated. I reach the car, open the door, and get in. Once I’m in, I slam my hands on the steering wheel. Fuck, why does she have the power to get under my skin so much? (I hate that I can’t control myself around her.) I groan internally. I plug my phone into the car charger and put some mus
Mariah POVThe rest of the party, I ignore Nick. I just sit with the girls, talking and laughing. We sing happy birthday, Nancy, and she passes the cake around. As soon as Nancy passes me my piece of cake, a wave of nausea hits me.Hey, what's wrong? Nancy asks.(I don't know; I suddenly felt nauseous.) I say, covering my mouth.Nancy and Rose look at each other, then look at me.(What is it?) I ask, confused.(Girl, are you pregnant?) Nancy says.(No, I'm not pregnant.) I whisper and yell.Are you sure? (When was your last menstrual cycle?) Rose says it with a raised eyebrow.(It was, uh, let me check.) I say this and pull my phone out.I go to my calendar on my phone and check my menstrual cycle days. My hands get shaky and my heart rate speeds up when I notice I’m three weeks late.(What! (What is it?) Rose whispers and yells.(I'm three weeks late.) I say it nervously.(Oh my goddess, I’m going to be an aunt!) Rose whispered excitedly.(No, I can’t be.) I am still in shock.(I got
Nick POV(Nick, please listen to me.) I hear her plea.(I’m done, Mariah.) I tell her I'm feeling fed up.(Mariah!) Rose yells, and I look back.(Fuck, pick her up and take her to the pack doctor.) Taylor says, and Josh picks her up.(Give me her, and I'll take her.) I tell Josh.(No, I got her; this was your fault in the first place.) Josh growls.(Josh, I'm not repeating myself.) I growl and grab Mariah from his arms.(Show me the way Taylor) I say and start following Taylor.We arrive at the pack hospital, and I put Mariah in the bed the doctor suggested. We are all waiting anxiously; Rose and Nancy are sitting down, Taylor and Josh are talking, but he clearly wants to say something to me with the glares he is throwing my way. I keep pacing, waiting for a doctor to come out and tell us what the hell is going on. Mila keeps telling me to calm down, saying that it wasn't my fault, but maybe if I had listened to her, she wouldn't have gotten all worked; she would have been okay. I sto
Mariah's POVI wake up to a knock on my door (knock, knock)"Go away," I say to the person on the other side of the door. "Wake up, honey; today is the first day of your junior year. You don't want to be late," Mom says."Mom, five more minutes, please," I reply lazily."No, wake up, your Best Friend is waiting for you downstairs," Mom replies in a striker tone."ughhhh," I groan internally.My name is Mariah Cruz. I'm 17 years old and starting my junior year today. My Father, Mark Cruz, is the current Beta of our pack, The Royal Moon Pack, and my mother, Jennifer Diaz, is the Beta female. My Brother Josh Cruz is 18 years old and a senior in High School. He is training to become the next Beta when our Alpha, Jason Adams, decides to retire and hand the title to his eldest son, Nick Adams. Nick is 18 and is also a senior in high school. He is also my brother's best friend. Nick is the school's playboy, along with my brother. That's what happens when you still haven't found your mate.
Nick POVI pick up my best friend and his little sister, who don't look so little anymore. Damn, I think to myself, when did she get that beautiful body. Those big round breasts that look like they don't fit in my hands and that round perky ass. I could picture myself biting it. Fuck, what the hell am I thinking? My best friend Josh would kill me if he heard what I just thought about his sister.Driving to the school, I am urged to look at her through the view mirror. I see her look at me, and I wink at her, causing her to roll her eyes. I look away and smirk."So, how was training camp?" I hear my little sister say, and I raise my eyebrow.Since when is she interested in training camp? "Training was good. But I was dying to return to all the beautiful ladies," Josh says.And I see Rose blush through the view mirror.What the hell has gotten into her? I think to myself damn teenager hormones. I wonder if that's what happened with Mariah. I heard Josh beat the crap out of Jacob for s
Mariah POVI start walking away when I hear an annoying, pitchy voice calling Nick. I look back and see Mila running towards him."Babe, there you are," I hear Mila say.I roll my eyes, "I swear they are meant for each other, both annoying as hell," I laugh.I finally reach my classroom and peek through the door window that Mr. Villanueva already started the math lesson."Ughh, this asshole made me late," I groan."Are you going to stand there or come in, Ms. Cruz?" Mr. Villanueva says."Fuck, a great way to start the freaking school year," I think to myself as I'm walking in the classroom.The rest of the morning goes smoothly and fast. Now it's time for lunch. I put my things in the locker and headed to the cafeteria to meet with Rose and the others. I walk into the cafeteria and see none other than Alpha asshat kissing with someone that's not Mila. How can Mila stay with an annoying playboy like him? Then again, she is the same. Since they aren't mates, they don't mind sharing each
Nick POVI see her walking distracted, and I follow her. It's not like anyone would think anything about it. I have the same class she has. I see the coast is clear, and I catch up to her. I grab her neck from behind and slam her against the wall."What the fuck is your problem, Nick" she spits angrily."You are my problem," I reply, gripping her neck tighter."I did nothing to you; now unhand me," she says, her eyes blazing."You did more than nothing since when you flirt with guys?" I spit angrily.She looks at me confused, and pouts her lips. I can't help but lick my lips and wonder if her lips taste just as good as she smells. Her smell drives me crazy. Why does she have to smell like my two favorite fruits, pineapple and a hint of coconut? I look at her slowly. Damn, this woman is gorgeous, I think to myself while I admire her breasts. She takes me off my trans when she growls."I can flirt with whoever I want, Nick. I'm not your property." She yells.I close the distance between
Mariah POVI’m walking to the field, mad and confused. Who the hell does he think he is kissing and grabbing me like that? Ugh, I hate that my body reacted now it did. Stupid hormones. Fucking asshat Alpha, if he ever tries that again, I will chop his dick off. I tried to calm down before I arrived at the field. I can sense him behind me, and it only irritates me more. Sparring should help relieve some of this anger. I finally arrive at the field and see that many are sparring already.“You late Miss Cruz.” Mr. Peters says.“I’m sorry it won’t happen again,” I reply.“Find a partner and start sparring.” Mr. Peters says. “I’ll be her partner,” Logan says.I smile at him and walk towards him.“You, okay?” He asks worriedly.“I’m fine,” I say with a smile.“Okay, Ready? Don’t worry, I’ll take it easy on you.” He says with a smirk.I raise my eyebrow. “Don’t. I’m sure I can handle you.” I say with an innocent smile.We go to our spots, and we get ready to begin sparring. When I hear a lo
