I suck at updating , I know. But the pressure is on guys. School, College its a pain in the ass. I've been on a writers block for a while and other writers can relate the "the struggle is real"
So I hope you enjoy the chapter and forgive me for my long absence.
I was completely shocked to know that even though Ben was technically “Part of my pack”, Josh would still try to threaten or harm Ben. My answer to that was “ over my dead body”. When we had finally had Antonio updated to what was going on, he was still in denial but after a few yelling and cursing and bribing, he took the werewolf thing pretty well. The only thing that he didn’t like the fact is the idea of Ben sleeping over his house and neither did Ben. So through another ten minutes of arguments it was clear that Ben was going to stay over at my house disguised as my dog.
“Well, my mom just texted, wondering when I’m getting home. I’ll see you guys at school tomorrow” Antonio waved heading to his truck that was given to him by his grandpa. Once Antonio left, Ben already shifted to a wolf. He gave me a wolfy grin as he lay down on the ground.
“When my mom is a sleep, I’ll let you in the house but you have to stay as a wolf. I rather get in trouble for having a dog in the house than having my mom find a boy instead” I said. I didn’t expect a response since he was in wolf form but…
Gotcha Luna
My body froze as I quickly turned around to stare at him. Since when could he talk during when he was in his wolf stage?
I guess I forgot to mention that once we made our contract, we have been linked to talk to each other through thoughts.
“Wait what! I don’t want you to hear every single thought I’m thinking nor yours!”
Lucky for you since your ‘Luna’, You can close that door. It’s like on and off switch. Just simply ignore the voices and usually they fade indicating that you don’t want to hear their thoughts
“It sounds too ea-
“Uh sweetie, Why are you talking to the dog?” My mom said giving me my-daughter-is-crazy look. I looked at my mom and I can tell my cheeks were reddening.
“I..uh… I was telling him goodnight?” I said in more of question.
“Okay, um. When you're done ‘saying goodnight to your dog’ come inside.” She said. As soon as she went inside a loud blast of mexican music can be heard.
NECESITO DECIRTE
QUE NO VOY A OLVIDARTE
AUNQUE TE FUISTE
PORQUE SOLO SOY DE TI Y PARA TI
What the hell is that?
“My whole day is going to be spent cleaning” I said feeling my shoulders slump. I hate cleaning all day. It almost makes me want to go to school, almost
How can you tell? Ben tilted his wolf head slightly making him look almost adorable.
“The music. I don’t know why, but everytime my mom plays some Spanish song, my entire day is either doing laundry, mopping the floor or doing some weird odd errand” I sighed.
“Oh, Well good luck” Ben let out a yawn and did that thing that dogs do when they circle around and lay down.

(Five hours later)
“Please Mama are we finished” I groaned for the thousand times. The house was literally sparkling clean. I don’t know what she thought was dirty? There is not even speck of dirt on the floor or on the table since she had me dust. My mom placed her hands on her hips observing very carefully everywhere.
“Did you organize the DVDs and CDS” She said sounding more of command than a question.
“ Si mami ” I sighed crossing my arms leaning on the kitchen sink which I had just finished cleaning as well.
“Okay, What do you want for lunch?” She smiled. I couldn’t help but let out a small moan. We had just finished cleaning and now were going to make a mess.
" Something that won’t make us clean all over again” I grumbled. My mom rolled her eyes and went to the fridge to search up something to make. As she had brought out the turkey, mayo and cheese, a dog like cry came from outside. My body jumped since the howl was so loud it almost made my heart jumped out of my chest. My mom reacted fast and went to the safe box bringing her shot gun. She swung the door open and slightly lowered her gun. Now, I know what you are thinking. What the hells is with us with guns? My mom lived in a ranch for most of her life in Mexico. Her father taught her to use a gun for protection considering where they lived was filled with wild dogs and coyotes. Apparently my mom decided to keep the tradition and decided to teach me to handle a gun in my early teens. Of course she wouldn’t ever let me actually have a gun for my own. She taught me how to use and if I’m seriously out of any option to use it for my protection and for people I care about.
I peeped over my mom’s shoulder viewing three wolves. One of them I instantly knew who it was. Josh. The other two I didn’t who they were. Josh gave me a look that I couldn’t quite describe. He looked as if he was in a tight position. He had his paw on Ben’s wolfy chest his teeth slightly baring out.
“Isn’t that the last dog you brought in” My mom questioned finally putting the shot gun down. Josh kept his eyes on me and the gun.
“Maybe. I can’t tell, there’s many dogs like him. He probably ran away with some mutt. Besides I prefer the dog I have now.” I shrugged giving him uncaring look. Josh’s wolfy nose suddenly scrunched up snarling down at Ben with his eyes looking as if was determined to snap Ben’s neck.
“Do you want me to shoot him ?” My mom asked thinking the dog was too wild to handle. I shook my head as much as I hate Josh, I’m not that cruel to kill him. But I don’t want him to mess with Ben either. Instead I came with an idea that I used to keep cats and other pesky raccoons off our property. The escoba *Broom* I left it by the door since I was sweeping the the kitchen.
I came back and saw the dogs were about to start fighting. They seem to busy with each other trying to snap each others neck and finally without warning…
WHACK! I used the broom like a baseball bat. It was enough to have him fall off Ben. As much as I wanted to give Josh all the beating I hit one dark tan brown wolf in the snout and the other much lighter color shade of brown wolf on the head.
“¡Vete! *Get out*” I shouted. When the other tried to snarl back, my broom did the talking. I knew they wanted to attack and they could have. If it wasn’t for my mom’s gun and maybe the small part of being Josh’s mate. I glared at Josh with his tail between his legs. He was behaving like the first time I met him as wolf when he bit me and then suddenly felt sorry for it. The only thing is I’m not accepting his apology.
“Don’t ever. Come near me or Be- I mean my dog. Again. I swear I’ll have you three skinned and used as a rug on my bathroom floor. Got it” I sneered lifting my broom pathetically. Sure it wasn’t a badass weapon like my mom but it was the best thing I got. And don’t all animals hate the broom, I mean my dog Spike loathed it.
The last two wolves had gotten the message and ran off. Josh was the only one staring at me his voice turning to some sad puppy cries which was weird that even Ben was staring at him oddly. He tried to step closer to me but I had made sure that the broom kept him at bay.
“I mean it Josh don’t threaten my friends again” I whispered. At this he was desperately trying to talk but only looked he was doing some type of dog trick which was pretty funny only if I wasn’t so damn pissed off with him.
“Bring the dog inside that way the other dogs will leave him alone.” My mom gave in probably tired of standing outside. I nodded my head and motioned for Ben to come inside the house which he happily did.
“Aren’t you coming inside Sammy?” My mom questioned worried about the other dog biting me.
“I’ll be okay its only this mutt left. I can handle it from here” I smiled. My mom didn’t want to leave me but seeing that I was tough girl she nodded her head and closed the door. I knew Josh wasn’t going to leave the property anytime soon. I walked toward to the side of the house where are underground basement was. Unlatching the two doors, I swung it open and stepped down the wooden steps. At the basement was a box of my Dad’s junk. Josh didn’t follow me down but was curious of what was doing. Once I had gotten up the steps, I found a pair of jeans and threw it at him indicating I wanted for him to change back. He grabbed the jeans with his mouth and head down the steps.
In a minute or two Josh was in human form his naturally messy black hair all over the place and only his shiny golden eyes were the only thing that reminded of his wolf side. The moment he saw me his jaw was held tight.
“I’m only going to tell you once to not threat-
“Why the fuck is Ben in our house?” He growled.
“No. My house. Not yours. And Ben is here because he wanted to be” I shrugged. I guess Josh didn’t like that answer, because he was scowling even more.
“Don’t come near Ben again” I said again.
“Hell no. He messed with whats mine that little punk” He sneered.
“ I’m not yours! I won’t ever be yours because you know why! YOU'RE EXACTLY JUST LIKE HIM!” I shouted. Josh seemed to stiffen.
“Who’s him? There’s another guys” His voice growing darker and angrier.
“No you idiot-
Josh pulled me roughly towards him pressing his lips against mine. His long arm became a cage and I was trapped. I didn’t respond to his kiss instead I bit his lower lip hard. I figured this would have gotten him to let me go but only caused him to pull me tighter. He moved his face from mine and only pinch of blood came from his lower lip which he quickly brushed it off.
“Who’s the guy I’m just like?” He questioned angrily.
I let out a cold hearted laugh “ The drinking, enjoying pushing others around and hurting people. You are him. You are my cold bastard of a Father and that is why Josh Wolf, I will never be yours”
This had taken him by surprise and had even almost dropped me into letting me go. He crouched to the ground his arms still closed tightly around me. His forehead leaned against the back of my neck.
“I’m sorry” He blurted out. I didn’t know what to say. I wasn’t ready to forgive him but I didn’t wanted to stay forever pissed off at him either.
“I’ll make it up to you. You will be mine and I won’t be him. I’m not him” He said sounding like kid. I couldn’t help but sigh. I doubt he wasn’t learning anything. But why do I still want him too. I hated myself even more.
“You make my life so fucken difficult. I hope you know that. I groaned. I can feel his smirk on my shoulder.
"And I'm not going to forgive for hurting Ben" I added
“I know and I’m sorry” He repeated
