I yawn. I lay down on my side with my back to Dustin. I was afraid that I might have another vision and that he would see it this time.

Dustin's P.O.V.

I didn't feel Ella in my arms anymore. I rolled over in my sleep. I ended up on my side. I was very close to something. I opened my eyes slightly. I was by Ella. I wrap my arms around her. I closed my eyes. I hear her let out a sigh of relief.

I didn't want Ella out of my sight. I was too afraid that something will hurt her. My wolf side my be a complete jerk, but he is very protective over loved ones. That side of me makes me want to protect her even more.

I had my head close to her's. My face laid sideways along her neck. I felt my canines extend brush against her skin. You have to mark her. Said my wolf. I, unknowingly, tightened my grip. I couldn't mark her. I couldn't put her through that pain.

I couldn't force my canines back in. Beads of sweat fell from my forehead. I felt cold hands on top of mine. Ella removed my arms. She turned so she would be facing me.

"You alright?" She asks.

"Yeah." I lie. I couldn't tell her about the rules of marking.

"You sure?" She asks.

"I'm fine." I say hostilely as I pull my hands out of her's.

She studies my face for a second and then walks to the other side of the cave. She takes the book and starts reading.

A take a few minutes to cool down. I had to calm down fully or I might have another outburst. I didn't want her to get mad at me.

Ella's P.O.V.

I  opened the book to the werewolf section. I needed to understand why he was getting so angry and why his teeth were brushing against my skin.

Mates: Werewolves are bound to each other through mating. Every werewolf has a mate. They know when they have found their mate by a sudden attraction and electricity at the touch.

Dustin sits next to me. "I'm sorry." He apologizes.

"Why were you so angry?" I ask.

"Long story." He says.

"Just don't want to tell me?" I ask.

"Kind of." He admits.

I take his hand. "You know you can tell me anything." I assure him.

"And you can tell me anything."

I take a deep breath. "I think we should leave tomorrow." I admit.

"Why?" He asks.

"We have two days till the attacks. Two days till the dance. Two days till my birthday." I start. "I want to spend the last few days with my friends and family."

"Then they'll force us into the war." He points out.

"I know." I say. "I just really want to spend the last few days with them."

"I want to spend sometime with my family too. But I also want to spend it with you."

Dustin's P.O.V.

 "I just found my mate. I don't want to lose her." I tell her.

"We'll spend school together and sometime after. I really need to be with my family. I might never see them again after Friday." She says.

"I understand. We'll leave tomorrow." I say.

She leans her head on my shoulder. I put my arm around her. I kiss her head.

"Go back to sleep." I whisper.

"You two." She whispers.

"I will." I whisper.

Two days. I only have two days before the battle, the dance, Ella's birthday, and the day I have to mark her. I might lose her. I just wish I had more than two days.
