Chapter 1- Calm Before The Storm

-Nick’s P.O.V-

We dominated the halls, me and pack- but we’re better known around high school as the football team. Our werewolf strength and instincts gained us the upper hand during games, heck, we even go easy on them! If we tried as much as we do when we train with each other, we would have killed off all the competition!

Jay, my right hand man hit my shoulder, snatching my attention. He was Korean, tall, standing at 6ft with short black Mohawk styled hair. “Oh look Nick, target acquired!” Jay pointed and I followed his arm to a small, weak, runt at his lockers… its funny how weak he is- especially compared to us!

Mike, my other best friend ran up behind the nerd, slamming him down hard onto the floor, sending his glasses sliding to my foot. Mike stood up and looked down at his pray with glee and admiration of his work. I lifted my foot and crushed it down on his specs as he blindly searched for them.

“What’s wrong four eyes?! Can’t see!?” I teased, kicking his smashed glasses back to him. Yeah, I know… it’s mean, but we’re the school bullies. In our defence, its in our wild nature to pick out the weak to survive!

Mike continuously kicked powerful blows to the nerd’s stomach until he started to cough up blood, but we all just laughed. Crowds began to circle around us, yet no one dared interfered, not even the teachers, with the kind of hold my family have over the school's board members!

“STOP!... WHAT ARE YOU DOING!” a girl shouted as she pushed through the crowd and had used her petite body to try and protect the nerd from further abuse.

My heart missed a beat and time seemed to slow down as my eyes ran over her slender but curvy body. She brushed the dark brown curly strand of hair that had fallen over her beautiful big hazel eyes back into her bun. My eyes drifted down her perfect heart-shaped face to her pink lush lips… so kissable… I wondered what she tastes like! Wait! What am I saying!?! She can’t be.. a human is my.. my mate!

“Hahaha! You have to get your girlfriend to save you!” Mike joked and everyone laughed except me. instead, I uncontrollably growled at the thought of my mate being someone else’s. Instantly my pack silenced from my alpha growl and turn to me, slowly one by one the look of realisation and shock takes over- I’m protecting my mate! We all stare at her with shock… this can’t be possible!

My mate takes our silence as the opportunity to help the geek up and push through the crowds to escape.

“Wait!” I shout after her. The crowds part out of my way and there she stood, with the geek's arm around her slender waist for support and I growl again with anger! I just wanted to smash his brains out against the wall for touching her!!

“Wait?! For what!? Haven’t you had enough of bullying us!?!” she was angry with me… she was defending the nerd, making my blood boil more! But seeing how sexy she was when she was mad.. oh how much I wanted her!! But I never wanted to see that pain in her eyes, never again! ‘Take her, mate with her!!’ my inner wolf yelled, but not here, not while she still hates me!

Before I could defend myself she had already left… I needed her, she had to be mine!

 

-Eva’s P.O.V-

 

I jumped in front of Peter to protect him from the dickheads that are the football team, but mostly from the team captain, Nick! Every day they pick on Peter for no reason other than their own enjoyment and today they were going too far!!

“Hahaha! You have to get your girlfriend to save you!” one of the pricks joked, sending the crowd into fits of laughter that echoed down the hall, yet Nick stayed silent until he let out a deep, primal growl that silenced everyone instantly!

I lifted my eyes from the floor, daringly looking up at Nick. His 6ft 2 structure stood intimidatingly over my small 5ft 3 frame. Here stood Nick Lewis, a god amongst men. His grey t-shirt stretched across his broad shoulders, taunting me as it hugged his well-defined chest and his hard pecs tensing with each movement.

My eyes drifted higher to perfectly sculptured face, his short-ish messed hair that was as black a night and really brought the attention to his deep dark blue eyes, screaming for my attention!

In that instant, all my self- control spilled. Thoughts raced around my head as I gazed at him, frozen in place a chill raced the length of my spine and I continued to take in the sight of Nick… the way he looked at me with such wanting and lust, like he was sizing me up- looking for his next meal! Surely not… why would Nick want me!?!

I shook my head to snap out of my deranged state and took their stillness as an opportunity to flee! I helped Peter to his feel, supporting him by placing his hand around my waist and through the hall filled with students.

“Wait!” Nick shouted from behind us. On his command the crowd parted like Moses parting the red sea!

My anger was still boiling from how much of a bastard he is to my friends and at how freaked out I still am from suddenly feeling like I did… but I can’t let myself get caught up in Nick’s tricks of seducing woman, like he had done to every other girl at school.

“Wait?! Wait for what!? Haven’t you had enough of bullying us!?!” He went silent once more. My mouth went Sahara desert dry, I was actually talking back to Nick Lewis… was I crazy!! Do I want to get killed in the last year of high school!!

I looked up and our eyes met. We stared deeply into each other’s eyes and it felt as though he could see right into my soul! The way he looks at me.. Being around him, makes me feel whole- as if without him, I’m missing a piece of myself! Oh my, I sound crazy!!

I needed to be away from him, I needed to clear my head! I pulled closer to Peter and turned back around and exited down the hallway.

Chapter 2- The Storm

I made it to chemistry before the rush of pupils to avoid them noticing me. The more they notice the more they gossip and with my encounter with Nick, I do not want to be on the bad side of the girls who idolise him, nor his football team who look like they could take out a truck!

I took my seat at the front, like a nerd I know! I would love to hide away at the back, but unfortunately they’re all reserved for the ’popular’ kids…

The school bell rang and my class mates fell into the classroom, one by one but I paid no attention and hung my head down to stare at my books. A sudden rush of oak and fresh flowers infiltrated my senses, like I was in a blooming forest. I flicked my head to the now looming shadow cast over my desk and up at Nick.

He smelt so fresh and inviting. Our eyes met once more and he stood at the side of my desk frozen. My heart began to beat faster, my cheeks were heating to a red colour and my mouth went dry… why was it so intense just standing with him!

The sides of Nick’s lips curled at the sides and the corners of his eyes crinkled as he flashed me a heart breaking smile in achievement over my blushing. I shot my heat back to my fiddling thumbs under the desk to hide my embarrassment. As he walked away, our arms brushed only slightly, yet a spark rushed through my body that sent lustful tingles up my spine. My body reacted on its own… I needed him, his touch, his caress!

***

As I sat in my stool, I tried so hard to concentrate on Mr Lowe teaching us chemistry but I can’t when I can feel Nick’s intense stare burning a hole in the back of my head!

Why was he looking at me!? Was it because I shouted at him inform of everyone this morning? And what was with the way he looked at me before… with those lust filled eyes! No way! I laughed to myself, there’s no way someone like him could possibly like someone like me!

I couldn’t take is scrutinising stare any longer… his sudden attention was making me feel uncomfortable… yet turned on!

I excused myself from class and slipped to the bathroom, but before she could say anything I was already half way down the corridor and in the girls toilets.

Staggering over to the sink, I splashed cold water onto my face to try and cool down the lust heating my cheeks… but it was no good, I couldn’t get Nicks face, his body out of my mind! Why was I so suddenly into Nick, why do I have this strange pull towards him?!

The toilet door slams open to reveal the huge beast that is Nick. His huge, muscular figure fills the door frame and instantly back away. Every step he takes forward, I mirror stepping back until my back his the wall, his hands slam on the wall next to me and I’m trapped!

“What are you…”

“Are you going out with him!?!” Before I could finish he cut in. His voice deep and commanding sending pleasurable vibrations through my body. What was he talking about? Was I going out with who?

“What..” I whispered, barely audible as the unusual feel of lust blocked my vocal cords.

“Whatever his name is… the boy from the hall… are you two going out!?!” Peter? Why would I go out with Peter, we’re only friends, in fact Peter’s my only friend… but more importantly, why does he care so much! Is he jealous!?

“no… we’re only friends” why was I explaining myself to this monster!

“good..” his leg snaked between mine, pinning them in place. The fingers around my waist, softer than iron manacles but no less firm, set fire to my skin without giving me any room to move. I shook my body to try and get out of his grip… he’s only joking with me.. surely!

With his free hand, he firmly trapped both of my hand in his one above my head while the other stayed gently caressing on my waist.

He ran his face along the line of my hair and down to the nape of my neck, taking in a deep breath and making an appreciative growl in his throat. “I couldn’t stop thinking about you all day!” he murmured, not acknowledging my resistance to pull from his iron grip. “the way your body reacts just from the little contact, your smell..”

I swallowed, trying to ignore the sudden flutter in my stomach. No, I thought desperately, I can’t be turned on by this prick!!
