“I can’t live like this forever!! I have to go back!!!” I scream at Leo.
“You’re not going back, Mira!! They will kill you and maybe even Racheal if they find out about her!! I can’t bare losing you again!! I can’t!” Leo screams back.
We’ve been at it for an hour straight. Dickson and William took Racheal out of the house to she wouldn’t wake up. I can’t live like a fugitive forever. I have to go back and try to clear my name. I didn’t meant to kill rogue.
I cross my arms and glare at him. He clenches his fists at my action and growl.
“You’re not going and that’s final!” He growls.
I step forward and get in his face.
“It’s not your choice.” I sneer.
“I am your alpha so you will do as I say!” He commands in his alpha voice.
Did he just try to command me?! Doesn’t he know it doesn’t work on a Luna? I stare at him wide-eyed, shocked that he actually tried commanding me. I step back and growl. I can’t believe my mate is forcing me into something I don’t want to do!!
I feel tears prick at the corners of my eyes but I will not let them fall. I clench my fists and bolt out the door with anger radiating off of me. I run passed Dickson and William who were staring at me with worried looks on their face. Once I’m out of sight of the cabin, I shift into my white wolf and dart through the trees.
He can’t stop me.
I race toward the pack territory with anger practically spilling off of me. I don’t know what I’ll do when I get there but I do know I get there one way or another. I hear a howl in the distance and know that it’s Leo.
‘Mira!’
I instantly block him out and run faster. He’s not gonna stop me! I run until I smell the Blood Moon territory just a few miles away. I hesitate for a minute but keep going. Once I pass the border I hear a powerful howl.
Jerk face!
Sure he’s bloodthirsty and fairly rude, but he was the only person who would talk to me so that earns him some points. I howl back then I hear him mind link me.
‘Mira? What are you doing here? Where’s the alpha?’
‘I’m here to clear my name jerk face! Oh, and Leo is right behind me!’
‘That didn’t sound good…’
‘Yeah… he’s madder than a hippo with a hernia!’
‘How many times did you watch lion king as a child?’
‘I should be asking you that! You’re the one who recognized it!’
‘You’re the one that said it!’
I chuckle and relax a bit. Jerk face can always make me laugh.
‘I’ll be there in five.’
‘And when will the alpha be here?’
‘Longer than five?’
‘Uh huh…’
I see the pack house in the distance and I go straight for it. I jump through an open window on the second floor and find Jerk face waiting for me. He smirks and crosses his arms over his chest. I mentally roll my eyes and shift back into human form. I curl up in a ball and give him an annoyed look.
“Jerk face? Clothes?” I ask.
His eyes grow wide and he takes off his shirt and throws it to me. I can’t help but admire his eight pack and tight bronze skin. His mate is gonna be a lucky girl! He notices me checking him out and smirks.
“You eye raping me, Luna?” He cockily says.
My cheeks burn and I look down at my feet. I then remember that I’m still curled up naked.
“Could you please turn around?” I mutter.
He rolls his eye and reluctantly turns around. I quickly slip his shirt on my naked body and stand up. I clear my throat and he turns around. He gives me an evil grin.
“It look good on you, Luna.” He says.
I roll my eyes and chuckle a little. Lucky for him, I know he’s just joking around. Now if Leo were here, he would be dead. He walks out of the room and motions for me to follow him. As we walk down the hall he turns to me.
“So what happened to your wolf?” He asks, clearly interested.
I shrug and he stares at me. He’s fixing to burst at the seams with curiosity.
“I died and came back to life. My wolf changed color when I came back.” I left out the part about me being a pure blooded Feramors though.
His eyes grow wide and he stares me in the eyes to see if I’m lying. He runs his fingers through his hair and sighs.
“That’s… wow… that’s insane! How? I mean what happened to bring you back to life?” He rushes out.
“Umm…. We aren’t sure.” I say.
He nods then turns his head to where we’re walking. He took it better than expected. We walk in silence but I grab his arms and stop.
“Jerk face?”
He turns to me with confused eyes.
“I missed you.” I say softly.
He smiles and pets my head. I smile back at his actions.
“I missed you too, Teacup.” He says.
I raise my eyebrows at him.
“Teacup? Seriously?” I ask.
He chuckled and nods his head.
“It fits you!”
“No it doesn’t!”
“Yes it does!”
“No it doesn’t!”
“Well, Jerk face doesn’t fit me!”
“Yes it does!”
“So you can choose my nickname but I can’t choose yours?!”
I think about it for a moment then let out a frustrated sigh.
“Teacup has lost to jerk face…” I mutter.
“Thank you, teacup!!” He says and picks me up and spinning me around.
I slap his chest trying to get him to put me down.
“Jerk face!! Put me down! I only have a shirt on!” I yell.
He laughs and puts me down.
“Sorry teacup.” He says softly.
