Enemies Become Mates novel Chapter 42

"You're fucking kidding me right?!" Veronica snapped.

"I don't know wipe your eyes and maybe you'll believe?" I said.

"So you're mates now?" Ace spoke with a smile, it was a force one.

"Yes we are, is there a problem with it?" Elliot spoke up giving Ace a look.

"No, no congrats. I'm happy for Cassie, who wouldn't." He said. We all stood there unmoving and I was getting a bit annoyed.

"Are you going to move?" I asked as I gestured to my locker. Veronica glared at me and started to walk passed me.

"Watch you back." She warned. I raised my eyebrows and snorted. What a silly little threat from her. What is she going to do? Push me into a ditch again. I looked up at Elliot and he just shook his head.

"Unbelievable." I said.

"Indeed, they're weird." He agreed.

At least we thought the same thing.

-Lunch-

We all decided to go outside for lunch by the courtyard.I was rolling around in the grass because I was bored a bit. Elliot disappeared maybe to get more food so I'm just trying to make up the time being waste away. I might look like a dog rolling on the grass, well I'm in the canine family so it makes sense. However seeing a human do it makes you question what's wrong with them.

Everyone else were by the table that was just a few feet away from me chatting it up. It was indeed very peaceful right now. I felt a small smile lingering on my lips, it's good to see everyone happy.

Elliot finally came back with more food and I rolled towards him. He started to laugh at how stupid I probably look. He sat down next to me and he started to eat his fruit. All I did was just stare up at him, just admiring him like some little puppy. He looked down and handed me a grape to eat.

They started to inch towards us and Elliot started to circle around me. He was snapping at anyone who made a move towards us. His eyes were now red indicating his wolf indeed took over. Addie wanted to jump out herself but I suppressed her, not now I don't need to go batshit crazy.

"Give us the girl." One of them demanded. In response Elliot huffed out before howling into the air. All the people looked tensed and then looked at each other. I smelt the warriors from Elliot's pack getting really close to us.

These rogues noticed that this was a lost caused and started to retreat into the forest. Which in that moment I saw the pack warriors running after them. Elliot fur stood up causing him to look bigger and his ears were down. He snarled and howled again into the air. He looked like he wanted to go catch then but he looked back towards me.

"It's ok you can go I'm fine." I reassured.

"No I'll stay they'll handle it." He spoke into my mind. I nodded my head and sighed out. What the fuck was that.

"Are you ok?! Those bastards were in the school too!" Toby ran towards us with some extra clothes and a first aid kit. He was injured at bit too but not as serious as Elliot.
