“No.” Cannon refused flatly, glaring down at Jaylynn.
“Come on Cannon!” Jaylynn whined, stomping her left foot in irritation.
“No, Jaylynn. I said no, so it’s not gonna happen.” Cannon scowled, crossing his muscled arms over his chest as he continued to glower down at his girlfriend.
“What’s the big deal?” Jaylynn protested. “It’s just a beach party for crying out loud!” Jaylynn cried throwing her arms up in the air with her exasperation with Cannon.
It has now been two weeks since Cannon and Luben high jacked her and made her attend school. It wasn’t as horrible as she expected, which Jaylynn grudgingly admits. With Luben in every one of her classes – something she was sure that Cannon made happen - she didn’t feel like she was alone and actually managed to make quite a bit of friends. Friends that invited her to a beach bonfire later tonight, which is exactly how Jaylynn found herself arguing with Cannon.
After Luben dropped Jaylynn off, Jaylynn greeted her boyfriend with a kiss and after he asked her about her day, she cheerfully told him about her invite.
She didn’t expect Cannon to freak the hell out.
Right away her growled at her, and told her she was not allowed to go saying how it was “too dangerous” and he didn’t want her to be away from him where he couldn’t “protect her.”
Naturally, she objected. Which then lead to the argument that they’re still currently having.
“I don’t see what the big deal is.” Jaylynn instisted, her voice getting more and more frustrated. “You’re the one who said for me to make friends!” Jaylynn huffed, folding her arms across her breast.
“The big deal is that you will be surrounded by people who have been drinking and who can’t control themselves.” Cannon growled down at her. He was a bit annoyed that even though he was annoyed with her, he couldn’t help but notice how sexy she looked when she was mad. And the way she wash pushing her breast out as her arms crossed over them didn’t help either.
“You won’t be protected, and you don’t need to be around a bunch of drunken guys!”
“But-“
“No Jaylynn.” Cannon said firmly, narrowing his eyes down at her. “I said you can’t go and that’s the end of it. You can sit your pretty ass right here and I’ll build you a damn fire if that’s what you really want. But you’re staying here and that’s final!”
Jaylynn stared at Cannon agape. Her fists clenched as she gritted her teeth in anger. How dare he! How dare he talk to her as if he controlled her!
“You can’t just order me around Cannon!” Jaylynn yelled furiously, her expression darkening. She reached up and jabbed a finger into his chest furiously. She ignored the hurt that the action caused her poor finger.
“I’m not you’re damn property, and I will be going to this party.” Jaylynn promised, her eyes flashing as Cannon glared down at her with pure male ignorance. She glared at him a second more before turning on her heel and marching towards their bedroom to look for something appropriate to wear for the party.
She didn’t get far when she was snagged by the wrist and spun around. She collided with a hard chest as she tilted her head back to stare up at Cannon’s darken expression and eyes flashing.
“You are my mate.” Cannon reminded her, his voice a low growl. “I can do whatever I want, because you’re mine” Cannon said possessively, his eyes flashing yellow as the wolf slipped and his eyes became primal. Jaylynn could feel her heart stutter, and a flush begin at her chest as it traveled down to her most private area.
Cannon lowered his head, his back curved as he bent down to whisper in her ear. “Now, you will not be going to this party. The fact that you seem to want guy’s attention on you,”
“I’m not-“ Jaylynn started to say but Cannon quieted her with a sharp nip on her neck. Hard enough to warn her and get her attention, but not hard enough to leave a mark.
“But I don’t share, and I don’t want any guy to look at my mate.” Cannon growled loudly as he tightened his hold on her. His voice was full of jealous, possession and before she could really comprehend what was happening she felt his lips connecting to her own as her back hit the wall as Cannon lifted her effortlessly into his arms and backed her into it.
She moaned into the kiss and wrapped her hands around his neck, as her small hands grabbed a fist full of his air. His teeth, almost sharp to her overactive senses, nipped and bit at her lips until she'd opened her mouth to allow his tongue in. She was only able to let out a small gasp of surprise when he grabbed her from under her ass and hoisted her up more, causing her legs to wrap around him tighter.
Cannon was going insane. That was the only explanation he had, for the feeling of her small body pressed up against him as he devoured her lips couldn’t possible feel this good. But it did.
The way her soft, inexperienced tongue met his when he forcible plunged into her mouth. He had to taste her, and the taste of her was like honey. He would never get tired of her taste, or the way her body felt against his. But he had to stop. He could feel his wolf start to press into his conscious, start to take control so he could mate; leave his mark on her for all the guys to see that she belongs to him forever. His wolf wanted to her ,what he feels is rightfully his.
Cannon tore his mouth away from her, and Jaylynn was left panting for air. Before Cannon pushed her head down into his shoulder, she saw something that was dark and almost frightening in his eyes.
She tried to get her breathing under control, and get her bearings. She knew that she was angry at him for something, but she couldn’t remember what exactly now. Not after that kiss, it tore her senses away.
“Maybe I shouldn’t listen to you more often,” Jaylynn breathed. “if it gets a reaction like that.”
Cannon chuckled, grabbing her hips he pulled her away from him making her legs drop from around his waist as he slowly put her down. Her body brushing every inch of his as he did so, and when he was sure that she was steady he released her.
This was the second time that Cannon lost control, and thatthought both terrified him as well as make him puff up with pleasure because as far as he was concerned, Jaylynn did too if the way that she responded was anything to go by.
There was a bit of a awkward silence, both of them trying to bring their raging hormones under control.
“So..about this party.”
Jaylynn looked up and grinned.
She won.
~~~~
She stood there in the forest, barefoot and freezing. Her heart was beating rapidly in her chest, the speed so fierce it was hard to draw breath into her lungs. She shivered violently, her teeth rattling behind her lips. The sound of a twig snapping had her head whipping to the right. She exhaled heavily, her eyes wildly surveying the trees shadows.
He was coming..
She exhaled shakily, her breath showing in a cloud of white from the cold. She turned her head to the left to scan the rest of the forest then out of the darkness she saw it.
Red eyes.
His eyes.
Her eyes widen in fear, opening her mouth to scream only for it to be cut off by his hand around her mouth in a crushing grip. He leaned his face close so that their noses were almost touching, his red eyes boring into hers and his lips curled up in a smile full of malice.
“Hello, Jaylynn,” He chuckled darkly, the sound void of any emotion but cruelty.
“I come bringing a message.” He said to her, staring into her blues eyes. Jaylynn flinched when she felt his cheek next to her, as he turned his head and smelled her throat. Jaylynn whimpered when he bit the bottom of her ear drawing blood from the soft lobe, the action causing him to chuckle. Jaylynn felt each movement of his cold lips on her ear as he whispered his message and she froze from the sheer terror.
“I’m coming for you.”
Jaylynn gasped shooting up in the bed. She looked around her in a panic letting out a shaky sigh when she realized that it was daylight and she was in bed. She looked down to Cannon’s side of the bed, noticing him being absent. She laid her hand on the sheets, feeling that the sheets were cold. He must have left after she fell asleep to go on patrol. Jaylynn smiled, touched at the sweet gesture. He was always taking care of her, and though she should be angry for his overzealous protective behavior, she couldn’t help but secretly like his attention. After all, it is every girls dream to have a man who will love and take care of them forever and Cannon will.
We’ll love each other forever.
Jaylynn froze, shocked at the thought. Love? Did she just say she was in love with Cannon?
Jaylynn let out a nervous giggle, shaking her head. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone in a month. Sure, Cannon did save her a bunch of times and she loves being in his company, and when he’s away from her, her heart just aches ‘cause she can’t stand the thought of being away from him. Or the fact that whenever she’s in his arms she feels compl-
Oh sweet mother of God.
Jaylynn quickly got off the bed, throwing the covers away from her haphazardly. She rushed into the bathroom, practically colliding with the sink, and with a quick flick of her wrist turned the facet knob. She cupped her hands under the spray and splashed the cold water on her face. She repeated the process a couple more times and with her head still bowed she reaches out and turns the water off. She watches the last few droplets drip and when she’s convinced that she found her mind again after losing it for a brief second, she looks herself in the mirror.
“You are not in love with Cannon.” Jaylynn said, scrutinizing herself. Her reflection looked back at her, and Jaylynn couldn’t help but think that -she…it...whatever!- looked back at her mockingly. Jaylynn narrowed her eyes at herself and letting out an irritated breath out of her teeth, she reached up and grabbed a handful of her black hair to tie it up.
Her hands stilled, slowly lowering her arms as her hair fell through her fingers and down her back. She leaned forward so that her forehead is almost touching the glass of her mirror, tilting her head to the side. With a shaking hand she reached up and pushed her tresses away from the right side of her face.
That’s impossible. Jaylynn thought staring at her reflection with stunned disbelief.
“I’m coming for you.”
Jaylynn gasped, and with a hoarse cry pushed herself away from the sink and her reflection. She staggered back and crashed into the wall behind her, losing her footing and fell down with her back against the wall.
Bite marks.
She had bite marks on her ear.
With a low tortured moan Jaylynn pulled her knees together and wrapped her arms around them, hugging them to her as she rocked back and forth. She couldn’t control her shaking, and she couldn’t stop the tears falling out of her cerulean eyes as her shoulders shook on silent sobs.
“I’m coming for you.” Like a dark haunting melody his voice resonated inside her mind as red eyes flashed into her conscious.
She has his bite marks on her ear, exactly the same spot as it was in her dream.
Her dream wasn’t just a dream, it happened.
If something in this dream came true, Jaylynn couldn’t help but wonder..
Will her other dream come true too?
