Elijah P. O. V.
Three weeks ago, I would be around Avery and making sure she was okay just being with her made me feel wanted and good. But now I can’t stand to be around her now. Because I been staying away from her because of my guilt. I am afraid she will find out by someone else before I get to tell her. I know the other guys are going to tell her about their side of the bet they made about her falling in love with them and leave her.
I know Andrew, and Matthew they want to tell her too, but they are scared she will reject them like I do. I don’t want to cause anymore drama and heart ache for her. So, that why I am staying away from her and pretending to be interests in the other girls. But what I did just now to her. When she saw us in the hallway by our lockers? It’s the same thing since three weeks now. We stay away from her but we are still watching over her. She doesn’t see us following her around. I did see Joseph Houser he supposed to be are friend but we been seeing the way he been acting around her.
Damn, his asshole and crazy ass fucker! We is brave to pick on her knowing she is our mate. Even we let him speak to her but we will jump in if he trying to touch and hurt her. Then we beat the living shit out of him. But then I thought how about practice we can take are frustrates out on him on the field. I thought with a smirk on my lips.
“Dude, why are we doing this?” I heard Jake inside my mind. I don’t want to hurt her anymore,” he said again.
“I know, but we have too.” I told him.
“Why though?” Andrew mind link in the communication too.
“Because I don’t want the girls messy with her anyone and Joseph and Duke been messing with her.” We need to stand back and keep eye on her.” I told them. That one reason why I been backing off little because of them and of course the guilt about the bet.
“Oh okay”, that what I hear out of Jake. Then I heard the other two say
“Yeah, okay.” Your right, man.” I heard Andrew and Matthew say at the same time.
Hey! look there the nerd boys,” I hear Amelia say inside my ear with a smug voice that hurts my ears. It so babyish and she sounds like a banshee. Oh, man. What did I get myself in to now? This girl is so ignoring and evil. It wouldn’t pass me she the one behind the hurting and getting them two monsters trying to attack Avery.
She doesn’t like losing especially with someone is good and pure and beautiful as Avery. That freaks her out and pisses her off.
So, when Avery started walking closer towards us. The girls were calling her names and telling her did you really think the guys wanted you and stuff.
But they wrong, we did and do want her. We don’t you! I wanted to say but I kept my mouth shut and my eyes on Avery. I saw the hurt and anger in her eyes. I felt her pain and disappointment by how we chose them girls over her, their mate.
Oh, God, I can’t handle this!” I heard Jake. I don’t want to hurt her Elijah!” He told me with a cry. I knew how and the others felt. I feel the same way. I felt I was dying. Because that her emotion we are feeling. I wanted to run toward her and grab her in my arms and tell her I am so sorry for everything and I love- Oh wow. Was I going to say the word.
Yes I was, do I love her.
Yes I do. So, much.
Have I always loved her since we were a kid.
I knew I can’t lie to myself anymore.
I always had some kind of feels but I never thought it would been love.
So, yes I love her and now I am never going to get to tell her. Because now, she looking at me and the guys with hurt and portrayed.
What I should do is stop Amelia and get the fuck away from me and her fucking goonies. I hate them. My wolf and the other guys wolf are ready to come out and kill them for making are mate feel bad and sad.
“Fuck! We need to get them girls off us before hell will pay.” I heard Jake say. I can feel his wolf anger just like mine and Andrew, Matthew.
They don’t like these girls touching us” Andrew said with a snarl of his teeth.
I can feel my body shaking and I am holding back not to tear these girls to apart.
The girls have no idea how lucky they are right now for not being killed or locked up in the prison in the dungeon.
That when I heard a girl yelling for Avery, she didn’t look back she stop and stared at me and Jake, Andrew, Matthew. She was trying to see if we are really hear surrounded by these groupies’ girl. They don’t love us. They love the power and popularity and money we have. Avery does care for us. I can feel it and see it in her eyes. They I seen it in her eyes. Love. She loves me and I can tell she loves them.
I see she is trying to hold back the tears. But I know she can’t lie to me. I seethe hurt when Amelia grabbed my face and slam her kiss on mine. She was trying to get me to kiss her and open up my mouth. But I didn’t but then she bite down on my lips hard. I had no chose to open up.
That when I thought I saw murder in Avery eyes. She is getting pissed and she wants to fight these bitches and I thought I heard her say mine!
But I must of imagine it. Then after a couple minutes later, the girls laughing and we saw Avery ran down to her lockers and I saw Ashely stand in front of us and at Jayson he was there laughing.
Are you happy now,” I heard her say that and looked at me with disappoint expression on her face and then she ran toward Avery. I watch her cry in her best friend arms.
I want to die. I hurt my mate again. But this time. I don’t think she will forgive me this time.
I fucked up again. I saw the guys thought the same thing.
How could we do this to are sweet and beautifully now broken mate.
