Uhhh Why is Life so Complicated?!?!?! by Sarah Becker (english love story books .TXT) 📖

to school with her since we were kids, I think I would have noticed-“Zack suddenly stopped and sniffed at Cherry again. “Impossible,” He whispered “How could I have not noticed?” “Told you,” Derek said smugly. “What didn’t you notice?” I and Cherry asked at the same time. Kind of creepy………. “Cherry is a nephilim, she is part angel but I don’t get how I didn’t notice earlier.” Zack said frustrated. “If she didn’t know she as nephilim then her sent wouldn’t smell like one, but if you were riding in a car with her and you didn’t smell it then that means whatever reason she had to think she was something not human happened recently.” Derek said to Zack but he was staring at Cherry who was staring right back. I looked at her curiously, “Did something happen Cherry?” I asked and she sighed while moving her gaze from Derek’s to mine. “I tried to tell you,” Cherry explained. “Last night I was just so happy, I had a family again! And then the next thing I knew I was glowing and not some small little glow either it was so bright it was like someone put the sun in my room. I didn’t know what happened and I was going to tell you today so we could try and figure out what happened but you were kind of busy.” “I’m sorry,” I said hugging Cherry. “For what?” She asked and tears started streaming down her face. I heard someone growl but ignored it. “For not being there for you.” “I-I just didn’t know what was happening.” She sobbed. “Back up one second.” Zack said and we stared at him. “She said that her parents died three years ago and full angels no matter how much they want to, are forbidden by council law to stay away from their nephilim children.” “That’s horrible!” I yelled and Zack just nodded his head. “I-I wasn’t exactly completely honest when I said that, I meant that my adopted parents died three years ago in a car crash.” “Oh my god Cherry!” I said hugging her closer while she continued to sob. I felt someone push me away. “Hey!” I yelled only to find Derek had token my place and from the way Cherry was cuddling up to him I didn’t look like she minded. “They are mates.” Rolling his eyes like that explained everything. “Don’t roll your eyes at us; we aren’t the only ones with mates. I see the way y’all look at each other.” Derek said smugly. “Wait, mates?” I said looking at Zack. “And how do we look at each other?” I asked Derek. “You don’t know what a mate is?” Zack asked. I shook my head and Zack sighed. “Soul mate, love of your life, destined to be with.” “Ohhh and we’re supposed to be mates?” I asked pointing at him then me. He nodded slowly and waited for my reaction. “I guess I could deal with that,” I said and smiled at him. Zack smiled the most dazzling smile and walked over to me. He kissed me passionately and I kissed him back. We heard the doors open and Connor walked in. “Whoa, y’all having a make out party? You should have told me I would have brought Krissy.” I heard Connor say then pulled away from Zack to find Cherry and Derek and in a very heavy lip lock. With a shiver turned back to Connor. “Who’s Krissy?” “His mate,” Zack whispered in my ear while leaving a trail of kisses down my neck. Someone’s in a good mood, I thought to myself. I nodded and dismissed the subject. “Sooo, you guys want to do something?” I asked. “Like what?” Cherry asked finally pulling away from Derek who whined sadly. “Ice cream?” I suggested. “Yes!” Everyone yelled jumping up to get ready. 5 minutes later we were walking out the door to get some ice cream.

Chapter 10: Meeting the council
We were sitting in a booth in the ice cream shop all happily eating ice cream with our mates. Connor found Krissy and she came along. She is real nice, I like her. I was sitting on Zack’s lap sharing an ice cream cone with him. When about ten guys with weird black robe like clothes on walked through the door. Zack growled and held me closer to him. I stared at the guys confused as they started to walk toward us. They all looked alike except for hair. Some had blonde others had black or brown hair. What was really weird was that they all had the weirdest yellow colored eyes. “Zoey I presume?” Said who I guess was the leader of the group. He had dark brown hair and the same creepy yellow eyes everyone else and looked to be about twenty five. I f he wasn’t wearing that weird robe he would look like a pretty normal guy. “Whose asking?” I said staring at the guy with cold hard eyes. He laughed lightly “You are definitely your father’s daughter. I am Ramu, head of the council.” “So you’re the bastard that forced my Dad to fake his death?” I asked giving him my best glare. “Aww no need to be so nice Zoey.” He said sarcastically. “What do you want?” I spat out. “Just to talk,” He said calmly. “Better hurry, you got five minutes before I kick your ass head council or not, you forced my dad away from me and that’s not something that I will forgive you about easily.” I said icily. Ramu leaned down close to my ear and I felt Zack growl behind me and pull me closer. I squeezed his arm to show him that it was okay. “You’re a trouble maker Zoey and I don’t like trouble makers so I’m going to tell you right now. You mess with me and I won’t hesitate to snap your neck.” He whispered but not quietly enough because Zack seemed to have heard most of that conversation and the next thing I knew Ramu was slammed into a wall. “If you even lay one finger on her I will snap your neck faster than a blink of an eye.” He threatened. Ramu growled and pushed Zack off of him. “Know your place pup.” I grabbed Zack before he did something stupid. “Stop,” I whispered to Zack. He nodded and I stepped forward. “I’m not scared of you and I think you should leave. Now. Before I prove to you how much your stupid little speech scared me.” He growled at me which made Zack growl at him. “Don’t do anything stupid Zoey,” Ramu growled before turning around and walking away motioning for the others to follow. “Seems to be the only thing I know how to do.” I said to him as he was about to walk out. He glared at me pointedly then walked out with the rest of the council. The bell on top of the door stopped ringing as the door finally shut closed and they were gone. I sat down with a huff and replayed what just happened. “The bastard doesn’t know who he is messing with.” I said to myself but when I heard a bunch of confirming grunts I remembered I wasn’t alone. “I think it’s time to go home.” Cherry said standing up. I nodded my agreement and we left the small ice cream shop.
I and Zack debated the whole car ride whether or not to tell my Dad. I for one thought he would just freak out and make things worse but Zack said that things were going to get worse soon and if we didn’t tell him now we’d have to tell him later which would just make things complicated. So obviously Zack won the argument and we told my dad.
“WHAT?!?!” My dad yelled so loud they could probably hear it in China. I sighed “I told you he’d freak out.” I mutter to Zack. “Shut up,” He said nudging me lightly. My dad was pacing back and forth running his hands through his hair and cursing under his breath. “Not a big deal dad, this guy isn’t as tough as he looks.” I said making an attempt to calm him. Obviously failing when he turns and stares at me like I’ve gone crazy. “Not a big deal? He threatened you Zoey! YOU! MY baby girl! He threatened you.” He said staring at me. I sighed and I walked over to hug him. He held me tightly like if he let go then I’d suddenly start to drift away. “It’s alright, I’m not hurt and he knows that he isn’t dealing with a little girl that’s going to back down from a couple of scary words.” “Nothing scares my baby girl,” He said smiling proudly at me. “You got that right,” I said smiling back. “Now sit down and go back to doing whatever boring paper work you were doing before we came in here and ruined your peace.” “Love you baby girl.” He said as I turned to walk out. “Love you too dad.” I said and grabbed Zack’s hand as we left my dad’s office.
Zack pulled me into corner and kissed me hungrily. “I love you,” He said breathlessly while leaning his forehead on mine. I stared up at him replaying those three words in my head. Did I love him back? I thought about for only couple of seconds before realized that I do. “I love you too Zack, I always will.” I said smiling up at him. I heard Zack let out a breath of relief and watched as he leaned down to kiss me and I gasped at the power of his kiss. My knees buckled and Zack slipped an arm around my waist to help stay up. I wrapped my arms around his neck and Zack twisted one of my legs around his waist. I pulled him closer to me and moaned when I felt his BIG erection tapping at my core. Zack growled and slowly pulled me off of him. I stared up at him in confusion. “What’s wrong?” I asked using one of my hands to play with his hair a little. Zack groaned again and I smiled knowing I could make him feel this way. “God Zoey, I can’t get enough of you!” He said pulling my hands from his hair. “’The why are you pushing me away?” I said putting a hand on his chest and rubbing it slightly. Zack sucked in a sharp breath. “Because I can’t do anything like that with you until your birthday and if we don’t stop now I’m not sure if I’ll be able to control myself.” “Why not?” I asked curious now. “Because if we mate before you’ve had your first change then it could make your change more complicated. You could die or it could just make it more painful either way I’m not going to risk it.” Zack said taking a hold of my hands and placing them at my sides. “Wait, I still don’t get it. How would this affect my change?” I asked. “No one really knows how exactly but we just know that if you mate before your first change it messes it up.” I nodded my head and slipped past Zack and started toward my room when Zack grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. “I never said we couldn’t kiss.” I smiled at him and placed my lips on his.
Chapter 11: Not how I planned it.
The next two days before my birthday went by fast. Zack trained me and we hadn’t seen any council people since that day at the ice cream store. I woke up the morning of my birthday when I felt my bed dip down from the weight of someone’s body. I peeked one eye open and saw Zack’s smiling face staring at me.
