Rejected Mate
Chapter Nineteen: Love?

"you what?" I question in disbelief; I so didn't just hear what I thought Iheard.

"because I love you goddamnit, you wanted to know yesterday why Ihave changed in every aspect it's because of you, my wolf was the onewho bought yours out, it has been you since the day I saw you in thehospital room after saving bens sister when I saw your mates good fornothing friends beating you up it was you. When you were kidnapped, Iwas struggling to get through life without you because 1 am in lovewith you. I wouldn't say I like it; I should be living in pain because mymate died. I couldn't save her, I shouldn't love you, and I have beenfighting it for so bloody long. It was working until my wolf decided tobring your wolf out and now I can't fight it anymore, they have claimedeach other as mates, and because of that and sucking at blocking mywolf out I can't stay away from you" he growls out before collapsingonto his bed

"I'm just going to leave you two alone" ben states backing away.

“is this true’ i question summer only to get a nod in reply.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner" I question making him turn to me

"I didn't want to fall in love with you because I was scared to get hurt,you wanted to leave when your wolf came back, and I knew my feelingswouldn't change anything, yesterday you were going to leave, and Iwas crying in my office, and it wasn't until ben laid it out in front of methat I realized I couldn't let you go, you actually stayed, and I don'twant to lose you after I lost her.

"I don't know what to say" is all I can manage to get out.

"then say you will go on a date with me? we won't even sleep togetherjust go on a date with me tomorrow, and if you can face being with mea long time and are willing to allow our wolves to be mates we will callthe moon goddess the next day to make us mates” he rushes out

"I don't-" I start to say only to be cut off.

"please, one date. if you can't stand it then I won't push it any further”he begs moving onto his knees in front of me

"fine one date, but no randomly kissing me, jumping in my bed at nightand no sex" I growl making him jump to his feet before throwing his fistinto the air in victory.

"you won't regret this" he rushes out, making me roll my eyes as heraces out of the bedroom.

I move to the wardrobe and quickly change into some leggings and along sleeve top before heading to the kitchen to get some food, I don'tknow why I said yes to his crazy plan, but I hope I don't regret it. It willbe so awkward afterwards, and I know he won't want me leaving aftereven if it sucks, which makes everything ten times worse.

"here you go hun; I know you skipped dinner so eat up” one of thekitchen hands smiles before handing me a plate of bacon and eggs."thank you" I smile before stuffing my face full of food bearly chewing."This is so good" I smile making her blush.

"thank you so much luna” she comments, making me stop and stare."I'm not the luna" I comment, making the smile wipe from her face."Sorry, Erika I just thought after what the pack overheard you where"she comments before walking away.

Damn, I have been eating like a pig today. First I ate breakfast then Imade myself steak, chicken, lamb and sausages and I am only now full. Iforgot how much you eat when you have a wolf.

"you're going to make yourself sick you know that" Ashley chimes upbeside me.

"I'm actually thinking I gave myself food poisoning” I state beforerunning up the stairs and into mine and hazyns bathroom to throw up.Well, this is just great.
