Press the arrow buttons to adjust the volume, and you’re set He finished his hand reaching out and once again grabbing the remote and holding it out to me.
Now repeat those steps He ordered.
I raised my hand taking the remote out of his tan ones careful not to touch his skin, I hated the feeling of the sparks.
I reached over the remote pressing down on the red button causing a few moments later the large TV to loudly play a small tune before it came to life a white screen brightening up the dark room.
I looked at the screen and then back at the remote, everything else he told me went threw one ear and out the other, I mean I remembered how to adjust the volume but I forgot how to change the channel.
I forgot I mumbled.
His arm reached out taking the remote from my hands, his hand brushing against mine igniting faint sparks causing me to yank my hand away the remote falling to the floor.
What happened ? Are you okay He rushed out reaching his hand out once again to grab mine pulling it towards him as if he was inspecting to see if any damage had been done.
It’s alright I sighed pulling my hand back.
Do I scare you that much that you flinch everyone I come near you ? Your heart rate spreads up anytime I speak, can’t you get in to that brain of yours that I’m starting to think doesn’t exist that I’m not going to hurt you ? You’ve been here for a while, don’t you think if I wanted to hurt you I already would have ? I’ll agree not to pull anything on you if you stop trying to move away from me Four rants his voice raising slightly as he moves to a forward position on the sofa his eyes looking everywhere but mine.
Agreed ? Friends He finally turns to me reaching out his arm towards me.
I looked to his hand, he wanted to be friends ? After weeks of ordering me what to do, telling me what I can and can’t do. Trying to kiss me and now he wants to be friends.
Before I could stop myself I reached my hand up moving it join with his.
EMILYS P. O. V
She’s not going to find out yet, she’s not ready, I just got her to trust me and I’m not going to loose it yet. I’ll tell her when the bond will have to be completed Fours voice spoke laced with annoyance
We need you, the pack needs you. The wolves haven’t been trained in weeks, there has been wolves running close to the border there have been so many new shifters- Another strange voice rambled on.
Don’t tell me how to run my own pack, the wolves should be training by themselves, the wolves running close to the borders are nothing to worry about, the new shifters should be mature enough to handle it on there own. She needs me and I’m not leaving her until I’m certain she’s ready. Get out before she wakes up Fours voice loudly interrupted the other voice.
Yes Alpha, oh and Dylan will be here soon, I thought I’ll let you know The other voice said in a much quieter voice before a few seconds later The door was slammed shut.
There wasn’t one thing that happened in the last few minutes that I understood, I thought I was coming to terms with where I was. What was shifters ? He trains dogs ? What am I not ready to find out yet, why am I not ready ?
I took a deep breath before opening my eyes readjusting quickly to the light as the only light that was provided was from a lamp which stood in the corner.
Sleep well ? Fours voice interrupted the silence as I sat up in the bed.
He emerged from his wardrobe wearing black jogging bottoms and a black t-shirt, his hair was wet and he carried a small towel over his shoulder as he made his way over to my side of the bed leaning against the wall.
I nodded, for the first time since I’ve been here I felt like I could actually fall asleep, I didn’t have to wait until I heard his soft snores until I could fall asleep which sometimes I felt like I wouldn’t hear for hours.
How much did you hear of all that ? He questioned folding his arms over one another.
Of what ? I lied diverting my eyes from him to the silky black duvet that covered half of my body. How did he know that I was awake ?
Don’t play stupid with me, I know when you’re lying He sighed before unfolding his arms and picking up his lazily spread body and standing up to his large full height.
Breakfast, now He continued.
I sighed in relief, I was glad he let it go, but I knew that it wouldn’t be that easy he was going to bring it up again.
You need to eat more than that Emily, you have practically eat nothing since you’ve been here. I can’t have you bloody weak now can I Four argued as he took one look at my plate.
I followed his eyes down at my plate which continued a apple, I wasn’t really a breakfast person I can’t really eat as soon as I get up.
I don’t like breakfast I mumbled picking up the knife that lay on the counter beside me.
He didn’t reply but I felt his gaze on me as I attempted to cut open the apple, I sliced threw the apple eventually with the bluntest knife I have every used, I felt like a child again when o was only allowed to use a kid knife.
Here His voice broke the silence after a couple of minutes, causing me to look up at him to see that he had made scrambled eggs and was holding out the pan towards me.
Don’t deny it, just eat a little bit He sighed taking my plate which was now empty spooning out a large quantity of the scrambled eggs, I’m not sure he knew what little meant.
