The Unexpected

The rest of the night was spent calmly, peacefully, pretty uneventful. I had kept shamelessly flirting with Tim, feeling all the while Jonathan's gaze on me.

I had thankfully managed to get my act together before stepping out of the bathroom. I had showed up at the table as collected as ever, as if nothing had happened. I could only assume it had unnerved him since he didn't stay at the restaurant long enough to have desert. He had left some ten minutes before us, the skank he had brought trying to keep up with his angry strides but not quite managing to do so. I had inwardly grinned at that while keeping my face impassible, not showing any emotion whatsoever that might indicate the feeling of satisfaction I was experiencing.

Truth be told, the game seemed silly at times; nevertheless, it was serving its purpose just fine and that was what mattered most to me.

An Unforgettable Encounter

I entered my room, a smirk adorning my lips, indicator of my good mood, and was soon changing into my pajamas. I looked dismissively at my untidy desk, knowing I would have no problems finding whatever I needed in the morning – despite the almost impossible disorder – since that was just my way of tidying things up. I then longingly looked at my queen-seized bed which was just under the window but forced my legs to take me to the bathroom so that I could brush my teeth.

It was safe to say that all what had happened in the evening had made me tired since as soon as my head hit the pillow, I dozed off.

It was a nice sunny day and Celia and I had been enjoying it together. We had gone to the mall shopping, had fun, eaten some deliciously junky food as lunch and then gone back to my house. We were about to watch a movie when Karl strolled in.

Wanting them to gr

The Mistake

There wasn't much Tim said or did that night that I didn't giggle to. Doing just that, I had managed to successfully ignore Jonathan a total of seven minutes – yes, I was counting.

I had my flirtatious mode on, and I could tell it affected both my date and my mate, in totally different ways. One was probably thanking his lucky stars for my good mood, the other cursing my being his mate.

Even though I was busy with Tim, dazzling him with smiles at times, narrowing my eyes in a purposefully teasing manner at times, there was no denying the fact that I could feel Jonathan's persistent gaze on me… I could feel it so much, in fact, that I was bothered by it.

Waving my hand lightly in front of my face, fanning it ever so slightly, trying to ease away the heat I felt, I couldn't help but think any she-wolf would be more than thrilled – and probably impossibly happy – to be the a

The drive back home was enjoyable; Tim and I joked around and teased each other a little bit. It then soon c
