Chapter 10 Tired
Emma POV
I felt Logan’s eyes on me the entire night. I didn’t look up at him once. Every time Jacob touched me, there was a
low, menacing growl coming from his direction.
What the hell was his problem? He was the one who rejected me. He was the one who was sitting there with his new mate and future Luna.
Before they came to the diner, I told Amy and Jacob about me and Logan.
They were shocked to hear that he had rejected me and that he had chosen Sienna as his mate. They knew all about her and they were the only ones who believed me. She was a bitch to them as well, so it wasn’t hard for them to believe that I was telling the truth about her.
“I want to kill her for doing that to your hand, beautiful.” Jacob said quietly.
“It’s okay, Jake.” I said. “I will heal.”
“No, it is not okay, Emmy.” Amy whined. “She hurt you. Until now she only used her words, but I am afraid of how far she is willing to go now.”
“Amy is right.” Jake nodded. “She hates the fact that you are Logan’s mate. I am afraid of what she could do. Maybe I could talk to Alpha and Beta.”
“No, Jacob.” I said and grabbed his hand. “Promise me you won’t do that. They won’t believe you. Trust me. I’ve tried telling my brother about her more than once. He just doesn’t want to believe that his friend is a bitch. Just let it go. It will be okay. I will be okay. She will forget about me once Logan marks her. I will no longer be a threat to her
when that happens.”
Amy and Jake exchanged worried looks.
“Fine.” Jacob sighed and put his arm around my shoulders.
A louder growl came from Logan’s booth. He immediately let go of me.
“Why did you have to be mated to an Alpha?” he asked, irritated. “His energy alone is making it impossible for me to touch you. I have to submit, even to his growls. I don’t want to lose an arm.”
I chuckled. “I am sorry, Jacob. It will get better. When he marks Sienna, he will forget about me.”
“I hope so.” he said and gave me a warm smile.
I smiled back and sighed. “Well, I should go home.”
“You didn’t eat anything.” Amy said.
“I’ll eat at home.” I said and smiled.
That was a lie. I didn’t have an appetite. If I ate something, I would throw it all up
anyway.
The three of us walked out of the diner followed by an intense gaze. I sighed and rolled my eyes. For somebody who didn’t want me as his mate, he sure stared a lot.
Amy and Jacob hugged me goodbye, and I walked to my house.
When I got inside, I immediately started walking upstairs. I was stopped abruptly when two large hands grabbed my waist and pulled me back.
“You are not locking yourself in your room again.” Andrew growled in my ear.
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t even hear him walking behind me.
“I don’t want to talk to you.” I said and tried to wiggle out of his grip.
