hell was that?!
He frowned.  What?
I yelled in frustration,  Eloping?! What is it with you and making sure everyone knows
I m yours?! Can t you just let me deal with them?! I mean its bad enough that I m stuck with
you&  I gasped.  Ares, I& I didn t mean that.
He shook his head.  Yes you did. I m sorry. That boy just set me off.
 We better get to the house. I ve got a lot of hunting to do. I said, happy for the subject
change.
Koda asked,  Hunting?
I smiled.  Come on. Ares walked back with Matt and Koda talking quietly to them.
Victor walked beside me and whispered,  You shouldn t be so hard on him. He s trying.
I scoffed.  So am I Victor. This isn t easy.
Victor nodded his head.  Think how hard it is for him.
I frowned.  What do you mean?
He sighed and rubbed his temples.  Ares is the second fiercest warrior of all of the
werewolves in the world. He doesn t bow to anyone except the King and now he s got you to
deal with. You re pigheaded, strong willed and he s been bending over backwards to try to make
this easy on you when it s tearing him up inside.
I stopped and stared at Victor.  How?
Victor sighed again.  Being tied or having a match requires almost constant touching in
the first few months and most often requires you to seal the bond. You re young and
inexperienced so Ares isn t pushing you, but you keep pushing him away and refusing to touch
him and we all know you would refuse to seal the bond. It s eating at his control. If we aren t
careful he could snap.
I frowned.  So, I m causing him pain?
Victor nodded his head.  More pain than you could imagine.
Ares frowned when he saw us standing still. I whispered,  What do we have to do to seal
it?
Victor smiled.  I m sure you can figure that out.
I groaned.  No! No way Victor!
He shrugged.  Would it be so bad?
I watched Ares walking gracefully towards us and felt my lower body tighten. Ares
stopped walking and stared at me in shock. I groaned and covered my eyes with my hands.  No,
anything, but that. Not yet. Can t we just cut each others palms and press them together or
something?
Victor laughed quietly.  This is why he is giving you space, but just think about the pain
you re causing him. I m not telling you to do it tonight, but it will need to be done soon. The
sooner you seal your bond the safer you both will be.
Ares frowned.  What are you two talking about?
Victor smiled.  Nothing.
I shook my head and jogged towards my house. Headlights raced down the street towards
me. I stopped jogging and the truck skid to a stop in front of me spraying gravel. Ares pulled me
backwards and I sighed.  He wasn t going to hit me.
Billy climbed out of the truck with Jake and Jeff. Ares shook his head.  We need to go.
I saw the seriousness on his face and wondered what was wrong. I looked at Jake and Jeff
and noticed they were holding bats. I asked,  What are the bats for boys?
Jeff smiled.  In case things get out of hand.
I smiled.  Do I really scare you that much, Jeff?
He frowned.  What?
Jake, one of Bret s other good friends laughed and tossed his bat into the truck bed. I
smiled.  Thanks Jake.
Jake winked at me.  You ever need a change of men, call me.
I rolled my eyes.  You know you couldn t handle me.
He sighed.  Too true.
Ares frowned.  Is there something I don t know about?
I shrugged.  Just that I m too scary for the boys here to deal with.
Ares snorted and stroked my cheek.  Scary? Not hardly. Sexy? Definitely.
Billy asked,  Artemis what s happened to you? This isn t like you? Why are you with
these scumbags?
I frowned.  Nothing s happened to me. And they aren t scumbags.
Billy rolled his eyes.  They are obviously much older than us and I m sure Ares is really
after your heart.
Ares snarled and I put my hand on his chest stopping him from moving forward.
Jeff smiled.  Silenced by the bitch? Wow, that s a new low.
I pointed at Jeff.  You! You sleazy jerk. You have no room to call me names. I ve seen
the girls you go out with and the diseases you give them. And I didn t silence him. He is just
letting me fight my own battle. And whatever Ares is after is none of your& 
Jeff smiled.  So you ve already given him what he wants. Interesting.
I snarled and leapt towards him. He swung at me with the bat and as I put my hands up to
block it Ares moved forward grabbing the bat from Jeff s hands. Jeff s eyes bulged as Ares took
the bat from him and tossed it into the truck. Ares pushed his finger into Jeff s chest making him
step backwards.  Just because she has better taste then to date you does not mean she s given up [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
