Falling for the wolf 48
When we left class, we went to Kessler's house. Truthfully, I was a bit nervous even though we've done this before. The passion and desire between us were quite evident. Kessler made me feel incredible."It was... perfect," he tells me when we finish. We're lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. "Every day, I feel more attached to you, Eva."I felt a flutter in my stomach at his words."I feel the same," I said softly. "And it's strange. Is it bad? If someday you get bored of me, what will happen to me?""That will never happen," he says. "Eva, now that you know the truth about what I am, I want to tell you something." He sits up and starts getting dressed. I do the same because I'm curious about what he'll say. I hope it's not something bad. I'm tired of bad news lately."What's wrong? Is it something bad?""It depends on how you see it. For me, it's very good," he smiles. "Every wolf has their she-wolf. Their soulmate. The person they were destined for. You are my soulmate, Eva,

The idea that Kessler would have used something to seduce me is absurd, it couldn't be, I would feel it. Kessler and I were bonded from the start, as he said: I'm his mate. So, yes, perhaps Kessler has that gift, but he couldn't have used it on me. The door opens, and my father enters, but he's not alone; Jonny is with him. It's been days since I've seen him. I had even forgotten about him."Eva, you're here. I ran into Jonny at the supermarket, and I've invited him to dinner, hope you don't mind," my father said."Hello, Eva, it's been a while," Jonny greets, smiling as always. "I brought some things for dinner.""Of course, no problem," I said."If you want, I can help. I'm very good in the kitchen," he suggests."Hmm, alright, because if I do it alone, it'll take longer than usual, and I don't want to keep you waiting," I took the bags and headed to the kitchen, where Lucas was having juice."What's up, Lucas," Jonny greeted."Wow, you look lost. I'm glad you're back; Eva needed a

"What the hell are you doing in Eva's room?" Kessler demands. Shit, I just hope Dad doesn't overhear us or I'll be in serious trouble."Kessler, don't make a scene, please," I said quietly. "Dad might hear us.""I just came to check on you, Eva. Your father sent me to find you. I thought we could watch a movie..."Kessler laughed."Are you crazy? You won't be watching any movie with Eva, Jonny, you know what I mean. Stop chasing her, Eva is mine.""Kessler," I protested. It's one thing for him to tell me, but another to spread it around to everyone. I'm not an object for him to claim like that."Get out of her room and out of her life, or you and I are going to have a problem.""And if not?" I challenged. "Kessler, I have the same rights as you. If Eva wants me to stay away from her, she can tell me herself. You're nobody to tell her what to do. Right, Eva?" I look at her. "Will you let a guy choose your friends? Let me tell you, you're way off base there. We all know how manipulative

The sound of the birds woke me up. Through the window, I could see the daylight. My clock showed seven in the morning.No way! Kessler, beside me, hugged me while he slept peacefully. I smiled seeing him like that, tempted not to go to school and spend the whole morning with him, making breakfast together, and spending the day doing something fun. Wow, I think I'm falling for Kessler Walton more than I expected.I kissed him on the cheek, causing him to stir."What time is it?" he asked."Seven," I replied."Damn, we'll be late," he said, looking at me. "Good morning, kitty, how are you? You look beautiful.""Don't be a liar. I wake up with messy hair and bad breath.""That's not true, and I have a mega sense of smell."I rolled my eyes. Kessler pounced on me and started tickling me."N-no," I gasped as I laughed. "Kessler, my dad might come!""Eva?" My dad's voice made us freeze in silence."Yes? I'm awake," I said."You'll be late for breakfast," he said."I'll be down in five minut

"Water this part, and I'll water over here," Lottie tells me. We were in the small garden we had made with the teacher. Despite everything, we couldn't let it go neglected, or we'd fail. The seedling was planted, and now it was our job to water it daily and adjust the soil. Honestly, I don't know much about these things; Lottie is the expert.The soil was damp from the overnight rain. The weather was cold as usual, with no sun in sight, always giving a cloudy, bluish appearance. It was beautiful, but sometimes I needed some sun on my skin. This time I brought my yellow jacket just in case, the gray clouds above the town and some distant thunder warned me it might rain."I think it's ready," I said, standing up. "Let's go to class.""Wait a moment..." Lottie washes her hands. "I was talking to Lucas, and I couldn't help but tell him what you said," she pursed her lips."Yes, he told me. It's okay, I'm not upset. It doesn't matter.""Are you sure?" she wanted to know."Yes, Lottie, it's

Saying I'm disappointed is an understatement."What do you want us to do?" Lottie inquires."To be honest, I don't know anymore. I don't know what to do or what to think.""Talk to him, maybe it's something important.""How important can it be to come to Lottie's house?" I wanted to know. We still haven't gotten out of the car. I'm afraid of finding something worse. Although Lucas wouldn't deceive me... if Kessler and Riley are up to something strange, my brother would have my back... right?"I don't know... maybe it's work-related, their parents are friends.""Let's find out," I said, carefully opening the door and stepping out. Lottie did the same. We walked stealthily along the huge wall until we reached a tree. Luckily, the tree was close to the wall so we could climb it and see the other side."This is very risky," Lottie murmurs. "What if we get caught?""Nothing will happen. Kessler should be the one afraid, not me," I began to climb the tree carefully. There were some ants cra

"What do we do now?" Lottie inquires. I continue opening my lunchbox, unconcerned about Kessler coming over."Act natural," I said calmly."Don't worry, I'm here to protect you," Jonny said, which I found very kind of him.I smiled at him in gratitude."That's what I'm here for, to take care of her," Kessler's voice sounded angry, tense. He put his hand on my shoulder and sat next to me. There was silence in the air."I thought we were going to have lunch together," he murmured."I'm already having lunch with Jonny and Lottie. If you'll excuse me, I want to have a peaceful meal," I said, giving him a cold look. Kessler frowned, seeming to not believe that I was speaking to him like that."What's wrong, Eva?" he wanted to know. "Why are you acting like this? What did this jerk tell you?" he pointed at Jonny."Nothing, Kessler. He didn't tell me anything. In fact, don't you have something to tell me?" I looked at him seriously. Kessler was trying to guess what was bothering me. It showe

I didn't know whether to believe everything Kessler said... at least most of it. I believe Riley's story, I think he's capable of that and much more. But with Kessler... there's the fact that he lied to me."Eva, I wouldn't deceive you. I just wanted to protect you and keep you from getting stressed about all this. I don't want to see you worried. Leave it to me. I'll take care of Riley and his pack.""When did we get into this situation? Will there ever be a moment without any kind of problem?""I'm sorry," he murmured, gazing at the road, looking sad and vulnerable.Ugh! I can't believe the immense power Kessler has over me. I can't see him like this because it makes me want to hug him and make him feel better.Stay strong, Eva, stay strong. Despite everything, Kessler lied to you."I want to go back to classes," I told him."Eva, tell me we're okay, please," he took my arm, "Even if you don't want to, I'll always be close to you. So it's better if you accept me willingly because oth
