*Willow POV*
Why does it hurt me when I walk away from him? I hate him, I know I hate him but why does it hurt? Why does it affect me like this? Shouldn’t he be just some irrelevant person, why should I care? Is he worth tears?
He is nothing to me, has just said hurtful things to me which usually wouldn't even worry me but for some reason from him that have so much effect on me. It is not like I have never had anyone be harsh to me, so why is this different?
I grab something to eat quickly before heading to my next class, I need to clear my head and get my head back in the game, I have no time to dwell on some jerk, things aren’t going to do themselves, I got so much to do so I need my mind back on the task at hand.
I just try and think of Sebastian to rid those pesky thoughts of Tobias.
Tobias doesn't deserve a minute of my time, he doesn't deserve to occupy my brain space, but why can I not stop thinking about him? When I touch him, what is that? I just want to know. What is that feeling I get? I just have to concentrate on Sebastian the way he makes me feel, the pleasure he brings me, anything to get Tobias out of my head, I hate that I have to wait until Saturday night to see what Sebastian can do in a big bed when he has a bit more room to move.
I have never really been one to be that big into s*x but there is something about Sebastian, a wild desire builds inside me when I see him, there is something about him, he is so different, even though he so sweet he feels some how dangerous. It is exciting. But the worst thing is I get the same feeling from Tobias, is that why I can't stop thinking about him? It is just his handsome face, thinking about him on the bed, my stupid mind is confusing lust for other things? Something wild something dangerous. That is all it is, somehow that puts my mind at ease.
I hear my phone ding with a new text message from Sebastian.
‘Where are you? I came to class looking for you’
‘Sorry I got out of there quick, that guy was being a jerk to me again’
‘Are you ever going to tell me who it is?’
‘Why, are you going to cause trouble?’
‘You know I am’
I laugh.
‘Don't worry about it, I can deal with him I told you this already’
‘If you can, why does he keep upsetting you so much?’
‘To tell you the truth, I actually really don't know’
‘You need to something to ease your frustrations’
‘Should I take a leaf out of your playbook and punch him?’
‘How did you know that this is my go to move?’
I snicker imagining myself punching the massive Tobias, but my mind can’t help but wander to a fight between Sebastian and Tobias, they are both so big and so handsome, it might be hot, maybe some shirt off action.
I resist the urge to tell Sebastian, as of course it would not be as hot as in my fantasy and pinning 2 boys against each other would be so juvenile and idiotic. Sebastian’s message pulls me out of my unhealthy thoughts.
‘Well I hope I can see you before Saturday, if not let me know when you want to get picked up’
I barely stop myself from telling him to pick me up now, or to come around or anything that involves me seeing him right this second.
‘No worries speak to you tonight?’
‘Of course how can I go to sleep without your sweet voice’
‘You're such a sweet talker’
I smile and put away my phone I got nothing to worry about. I have a man that's actually interested in me, an amazing man, what's it matter if Tobias keeps annoying me? I cast that pest out of my head and get back to work.
*Tobias POV*
I struggle through the day at school and head home, the only comfort is knowing that I get to go talk to those rogues again today, hopefully they can withstand a bit more of a beating today. I am beyond frustrated and need something to brighten my foul mood. I get out my car and walk straight towards the cells.
'Sebastian I'm going to go talk to those rogues again, do you want to come down?'
'Be there in 5'
I can hear the excitement even over the link, I expect nothing less, he is always the first one to volunteer for things like this, always the one by my side. I stand out the front of the cells and wait for him to show up. He walks over smiling texting on his phone again, I shake my head at him.
"Come on Sebastian put down your phone, game face on, don’t do that goofy smile in there otherwise we will lose all prestige"
"Sorry Alpha"
I laugh as his face reverts to stone cold expression, I have never seen anyone flick a switch like he does, we get serious and walk down to the cells. Sebastian stands out side the cells looking in with his large arms crossed over his substantial chest, I walk in again by myself, one of the rogues looks at me then at Sebastian before he sneers.
"You brought back up today?"
I release a deep chuckle, maybe I hit them too hard yesterday, do they have short term memory loss? How do they figure I need help, did yesterday not serve as a lesson?
"How much fight did you put up yesterday? Do you really think I need backup, my beta is just here for a bit of amusement, he likes a bit of violence, participating and watching, what type of friend would I be if I didn’t let him watch the fun?"
Sebastian laughs behind me.
"I sure do the bloodier the better"
The rogues exchange some worried looks and I just laugh harder.
"What don't tell me you're scared now, no more words?"
"How about f**k you?"
I laugh I don't know why enjoy this so much. I growl and lift the rogue up by throat his head nearly hits the ceiling.
"No, how about f**k YOU"
Sebastian is laughing cruelly behind me. I don't take my eyes off this rogue.
He gives me nothing so I throw him across the room making him hit the wall hard. Bones crunch as he hits the wall with such force. I sit down on the chair again back to my completely calm facade.
"So you guys ready to talk yet?"
"We have nothing to say to you"
"Yeah you're probably right, you probably have nothing to say to me because you look like 2 pathetic wolves that probably don't know any plans anyway, you would not be privy to any information as you are too low level"
"f**k you Alpha"
"That's right I am alpha and you're a piece of scum, what were you after? Why come so far on to my pack lands? What is your purpose?"
"I'm not saying anything"
I sigh and stand up. I walk out of the cells past Sebastian.
"String up these pieces of s**t"
"Yes Alpha"
“With extreme prejudice”
Sebastian chuckles with a sinister vibe.
“Yes Alpha”
His eyes full of glee, he is glad he finally gets to join in on the fun. I laugh at the look on his face. I am pretty sure he loves violence even more than me. I turn back to the rogues.
"Let's just hope you are a little bit more cooperative tomorrow"
I laugh as Sebastian walks in the cell, without a pause, not a single word spoken before he punches the man that is still on his feet so he falls to the ground grabbing him and dragging him to the wall and smashed his head against it so he's knocked out, Sebastian’s movements are so swift and decisive, for not the first time I am glad to have him as my beta, with him around I don’t need to supervise, I have full trust in him.
I slam open the door to the cells and walk out into the fresh air again breathing deeply. Nothing calms me, I need her, I need Willow. I sit down to eat, trying hard to focus on anything else. In walks Sebastian with a smile from ear to ear, blood covering his knuckles still texting and smiling at his phone.
"Are you happy about the violence or your girl?"
"A little bit from column a, a little bit from column b"
I laugh and head down to work out and do some office work and even some homework before it's finally the time to sneak off into her room. I open the door slowly. The light from the hall illuminating her pale skin and amazing lush hair. I pause for a moment. My breath caught in the back of my throat as I take in her beauty. Wanting to remember ever single detail, savoring the moment.
I walk in and lay down beside her, this time when she moves and rolls into me I don't freeze, I work with her movements, it is no longer a shock, I move with her to get us both into a comfortable position.
I just hold her tight, straight away pulling her close to me she wraps her arms tightly around me and finally after a gruelling few days I am at peace. Finally at peace, a long awaited chance to relax, I stretch out my fatigued body. I wake early and shift away from her trying to unwrap her body from mine without waking her which is quite a task as we are fully intertwined, in her sleep she whispers out.
"Please don't leave, stay with me"
My heart hurts when I hear those words. I wish she knew what she was saying and I she knew she saying those words to me, I wish she meant those words and it wasn’t just sleepy rambling. But I still pull her close and lie with her for another half an hour. Holding her, enjoying her company breathing in her scent. Wishing this could last forever, wishing her hatred of me would just disappear the tighter I hold her.
I finally get back up, as much as I want to stay with her I can't risk being caught, she will hate me forever if she catches me in here with her, I would even probably have the police on my case.
I head out to the trees and take one last look back at her door window, shift, put my clothes in my mouth and run.
