Turning The Tides by Bugz Rox (i love reading books .txt) 📖

with Liam, Calla with Will, Camille settled a llittle ways away while my father and Will glared at Brandon with everything they had.

"Camille! Like it or not, you're with us at this precise moment in time, and I suggest you stay with us if you want to keep the hunters from killing you. So, come sit with us," I called to the uneasy looking Camille. She smiled greatfully at me as she settled between me and Brandon, and Jenna.

"Hunters?" Haven asked. Diego turned to her.

"Camille was a hunter, she didn't like hurting us, so she came with us. The hunters hunt us werewolves, and yes, Mr. Johanson, that would include you if not your wife. Betrayal for hunters is punishable by death, if the betraying hunter is caught," He explained. Camille paled, as did my father.

"Yup Father, that means that it would be in your best intersts to awaken your slumbering wolf, as well as turn Mom," I said.

"Wait, who're they?" Haven asked, motioning towards Calla and Will.

"My older brother, Will, and his mate, Calla," I said, "Liam, Charlie, you guys coming up for air soon? It would be helpful for you guys to, I don't know, maybe join the conversation?" Liam flipped me off before going back to kissing Charlie. "Or not," I muttered quietly.

"Hey! I heard that!" My father screeched, panicked. My mother looked at him oddly.

"Heard what?" She asked, even Liam stopped kissing Charlie to stare.

Chapter 25

"I don't think we have a choice as whether or not to awaken his wolf, he's already waking up," I said slowly.

"What do you mean?" My father asked.

"She means that your wolf has decided that he doesn't want to be dorment any more," Liam said.

"So I'm going to turn into a giant wolf?" My father asked, panicking again. I shook my head.

"Not right away, your wolf will let you have heightened senses, like hearing, then he will make himself known. He will tell you his name in confedence. You'll tell no one what it is until you're one hundred percent sure that you can trust them. Then he will guide you on how and when to shift," I said, recalling it from experience, "He may want the proccess sped up because you're far to old. Other wolves shift on their fourth birthday."

"So I am going to turn into a giant wolf, right after I start hearing voices? Perfect," He said sarcastically.

"It's better than the females, they go into heat during their first full moon knowing their mate. Then they're in heat for a few days unless it's sated. Their heat comes every full moon afterwards," Will said from beside Calla. I paled as realization hit me.

"Shit," I said, everyone looked at me, thinking. Diego got it first and started laughing. I glared at him, "Sooo not funny."

"Karma's a bitch!" He gasped in between laughing.

"Anyone wanna fill us in?" Liam asked, everyone but Diego and I were confused.

"What's tonight?" I asked angrily, getting up. Liam thought it over before he began laughing with Diego. Everyone else besides Brandon and Will were still confused.

"Karma truely is a bitch," Liam said.

"Yeah, and your karma for laughing is you have to watch over her," Will said, glaring straight at Brandon with renewed energy. Liam quit laughing.

"What did I do?" Brandon asked defensively.

"It's your fault that tonight is her first heat," Will said.

"Will you two just quit it? I'm spending the night at the pack house," I said.

"NO!" Brandon said quickly, "Too many unmated male wolves."

"Hey! I'm an unmated male wolf, thank you very much," Diego said, sprawled out on the ground beside Haven.

"Not for long," Brandon countered, looking at Haven, who was watching Diego and didn't catch the stare.

"I will be if she rejects me," Diego said back.

"Then tell her," I said.

"And how do I do that?" Diego asked.

"Dump glitter on you, stand in the sunlight, sparkle and they'll come running," Liam said.

"Dude, no!" Diego said.

"Then grow a pair and talk to her, before she does decide to reject you," I said. Diego looked between us.

"I swear, the two of you reherse this shit," Diego said.

"Karma's a bitch," I reminded him. He glared at me before turning to Haven.

"Wanna take a walk?" He asked.

"Why?" She said, confused.

"I'm growing a pair and talking, so you wanna walk?" He said, glancing over at us.

"Sure," Haven shrugged. Diego bounced up and held out his hand to help her up. She took it greatfully. They walked away, their hands still entwined.

"So Diego and Haven?" Jenna asked.

"Yup," I said.

"And you're going into heat tonight?" She asked.

"Yup."

"And you're staying at the pack house, which is where Brandon lives," She asked.

"Yu-"

"No! She will not be staying in the same house as her boyfriend! That's like finding out that your kid just got pregnant and then sending her to live with the father of the kid. Bad things will end up happening," My father said.

"I actually agree with him on this one, though for different reasons. I don't want you staying in a house of mainly male, mainly unmated, werewolves," Brandon said, "Now if you were staying with me it would be different, but I won't be allowed anywhere near you."

"Fine! Father can I use the cellar then? We explored our options of prisons just in case and it's pretty sound proof. Not as good as anything that would be at the pack house, but it'll do," I said, I had read in one of the true history books that heat could be extremely painful, thus the sound-proofed cellar. "Then we can get a few of the mated males as guards, happy?" The men around me all smiled.

 

 

Diego

"So I'm your mate?" Haven asked me.

"Yeah, uh, sorry 'bout the, uh, delay of telling you," I said, nervous.

Smooth, brother, My wolf said.

Sorry! I replied quickly.

"You're nervous, aren't you?" Haven asked, smiling softly. I looked at her shyly.

"Sí," I said, dipping my head in a nod. It hadn't escaped me she was still holding my hand.

"Are you Mexican?" She asked, I nodded again. "Can you speak fluent Spanish?"

"Te quiero, Haven. Más de lo que nunca se puede saber," I said quickly.

"What does that mean?" She asked.

"It means, I love you, Haven. More than you can ever know," I said, afraid of her reaction. Haven stopped and turned towards me, it was impossible to know what she was thinking. She leaned up and stopped a few milimeters from my mouth, a question on her face. I erased any doubt when my lips crashed onto hers.
