Chapter Twelve

—Zoë Wesley—

I don't know what happened on the lockers but we just kiss. I was carried away and I don't know why my body is responding while my mind, my rationality wanted to stop and to push him away. He was destined for someone else not on me. He became passionate about that kiss. His breath is minted, warm, and a drug.

We have to stop when some of the players had entered laughing. They were shocked and they bow their heads when they saw us. They rushed out when he glared at them. He probably minds link them. He was about to continue it but I cover his mouth and pushed him away.

Now, I am here in the bleachers in the soccer field watching their training. What a view... there are a lot of hot guys out there playing the ball while the girls are on the bleachers watching them. Maybe some of them are their mates or girlfriends. Nathan is too controlling to his team. He was the captain and they take his orders.

I texted Harris to go here in the field. Then, Nathan gave them a break and they all gathered in front of me. They are all wet from sweat including him. He is a handsome hunk. No lies, but he was hot. He removed his shirt in front of me. I am still impassive leaning on my seat. Sweat keeps on dripping from his hair and it is running on his chest to his eight packs abs.

'Boys take off your shirts.' He told them cocking his head. I looked at the players who removed their shirts at the same time. 'Now, it's time for you to judge. Who's the hottest here?' he asked grinning. He was the hottest among the players.

I put two fingers in my mouth and whistle calling Harris. He runs towards me and baffled by the half-naked players.

'They aren't going to seduce you, are they?' he asked me.

'No, Harris, take off your shirt.' I told him. He grins playfully and stands next to Nathan. He swiftly removed his shirt showing his sexy abs. 'He's the hottest.' I declare pointing to Harris. Harris turns his head to Nathan who is frowning. He just smiles playfully.

I stood from my seat picking my bag. Nathan walks towards me while Harris is putting his shirt on. He nods down at me and stares at me with those dark eyes. I can smell his manly scent and he didn't stink.

'You have been biased...' he told me.

'No, I did the judging. It's not my fault that Harris is more hot, attractive, and gorgeous than you.' I said frankly. But no fair. Harris is hot, attractive, and gorgeous but Nathan is hotter than my cousin. It is just, I prefer my cousin.

'Okay, now... tell me who the good kisser is. Me or him?' he challenged. Of course, he won. I don't make out with my cousins. I laugh at his question.

'I haven't kissed him yet, but I'll try to kiss him and see who wins.' I smirked. He holds my both arms and pulls me closer until I almost meet his wet chest.

'Don't even dare.'

'Stop this stupidity of yours, Nathan. It's not worth it.' I told him. He looks suddenly hopeless and his hand drops. 'Whatever you do, I won't feel what you feel for me. I don't feel any current or sparks you are talking about because I am mate-less.' I told him in a low voice so we are the ones who can only hear.

'I don't care what you say. I have mated on you already. I mark you and you are mine.' He sounds so selfish. 'And I will make you truly mine when the new moon came.'

He meant that he will mark me again and mated with me. That will include sexual intercourse. Okay, good luck to him. I just smirked at him. Those smirks of mine fade away when he scooped my cheek pressing his lips to mine in front of those people and my cousin. I can't believe that.

'See you soon. Don't make out with anyone, okay? I am letting you on a date.' He kissed my forehead sign of love and care. He faced his team and told them to run in twenty laps around the soccer field.

Harris walks to me folding his arm. I watch Nathan running away to his team shouting them to run faster. I sighed still staring at him. I don't know why my emotions are so unsystematic. I can't take the control of it.

'Okay, let's go to our date.' Harris said putting his arms around me. We walk to the parking lot and I rode to my motorbike while he's on his monster truck. We go to Mr. and Mrs. Jackson's residence. They wanted a Nanny for four hours so I grab the opportunity.

I meet their first baby boy. He was three years old and hyperactive. They have something to attend about the business and they need me to babysit baby Rush.

'Come on in, guys.' Mr. Jackson signed us. We get in. They knew Harris and he was close to them. 'So this is the popular Zoë?' he asked smiling at me. I extended my hand to him.

'His cousin.' I said with a big smile.

'Nice to meet you Zoë. I am Claymore and my wife's name is Brit.'

A three-year-old baby boy runs around and he hugged my legs. I giggle and hugged the back of his head.

'That was fast, he automatically gets close to you.' he said. I just nod at him.

I had to meet Brit. She has those motherly smiles and she's so much caring. They had already left and the dinner for us is already served. I put Rush on his seat and put his foot in front of him. I let him hold his stainless spoon and he eats. We started eating too while Harris is telling me that he wanted a mate like me. A mate who loves kids and very caring. He hasn't found his mate yet but I am sure he will.

After the dinner, Harris put it all in the sink while I take care of Rush. I told him to brush his teeth and at first, he doesn't want. I told him that I will kiss him and then he claps his hand and we ran to the bathroom. I put a small amount of toothpaste on his toothbrush and gave it to him. He brushes his teeth thoroughly.

'That's it, just slow down and surely.' I told him and he nods. After he had brushed his teeth I take him into a half bath. He didn't want me too looked at him naked so I had to turn my back from him while he's washing. 'Are you done?' I asked.

'No peeking!' he told me. I just laugh. 'Done!' I turn to him and he is already wearing a small towel around his waist.

'Well done, Rush.' I carried him to his room kissing his cheek. He giggles. 'You smelled so good now.' I asked him about what he wears and he just pointed it to me. 'Diapers?' he shook his head. He said that he's going to wear his brief and I have to turn back so I did. After that, I help him to wear his sleeping suit. His body was covered up.

'Play now!' he smiled.

He seemed not sleepy so I give him a chance. We went to the living room and play there. He keeps running around. Harris is just sitting on the sofa while watching the discovery channel. I surrender, sitting on the carpeted floor.

'C'mon,' he pulls my hand but it falls on the floor.

'I'm tired, Rushy... let's take a break.' He crossed his arms with that grumpy face. I pouted and pretend to collapse on the floor. He sat down, lying down and pillowing on my stomach. I smiled and patted his head. He closed his eyes and then I felt that he's already asleep.

'Knock out?' Harris asked in a low voice. I nod at him. 'Well done.' He stood and carried Rush carefully not to wake him up.

'Zoë...' Rush murmur. He whimpers when Harris is taking him away from me. 'I want Zoë…' Harris looks down at me and I stood.

'Hey, I need to go back to the house. We had something to talk about.' He told me.

I took Rush from Harris. I nod at him and he tapped my arm running to the door. I carried him to his room and I put him on the bed and he didn't release my neck. So, I lie beside him and all I know is I fall asleep.

I feel like I was moving or something. I can feel it. When I open my eyes a familiar manly mint scent is the only thing I smelled. I looked up at him. It was dark and all I see is his silhouette. He was carrying me like a bride to I don't know where.

'Go back to sleep,' he whispered. I am not mistaken. My adrenaline rushed so I had jerk out from him. I stood in front of him holding my head. He sighed with rolling eyes folding his arms in front of his chest. 'I told you to go back to sleep.'

'What are you doing here?' I asked narrowing my eyes. Why is he here and how does he know where I am? I looked at where we are. We are outside the house of Jackson's.

'Well, I came to pick you up. You fall asleep with Rush and I volunteer to pick you up and bring you home.' He explained.

But I do not trust him. He might bring me home, but at their house. And he will take advantage of me. He stares at me like reading me. I had blocked our mind link that's why he can't get in my thoughts and telecommunicate with me.

'Okay, you can go now. I have my bike so I don't need a ride.' I told him looking at my motorbike. He smirked and I saw that the tires are flats. 'You gotta be kidding me!' I was about to punch him but he hands up. 'Why did you do that to my bike?!' I scowl at him walking briskly to my precious luxury bike.

'So that I can take you home.' He said which is sounder like a question. I glare at him. 'Come, let's go home.' I kicked the tire of my bike, not with too much pressure. Then I stamp my foot walking away from him to the direction to my way home. 'Zoë, don't be stubborn!' he shouts though he is using his Alpha voice.

I ignored him. I gasped when he suddenly appears in front of me and he carried me like a sack on his arms. I started punching his back and he ignores it. He smacks my butt cheek. The nerve! He's such a perv!

'Put me down! You maniac! Pervert! Jerk! Asshole! Bastard!' I had tried every offensive word but it was just nothing to him.

He forcibly pushed me inside his Lamborghini car slamming the door. He used his supernatural speed to get in the car in a second. He started the car and drove to the way home. I locked my glare at him folding my arms in front of my chest.

'Don't worry about your bike. I had told someone to pick it up.' He said glancing at me.

I am not worried about my bike. I am worried about him, kidnapping me. This was totally against my will so I can say that it was kidnapping.

In my kingdom, I will sentence him to death… if I was that brutal. But I don't kill a gorgeous guy who only wanted his mate. I am no his true mate… he just mated me against my will too. If the mating process had completed we are going to be real mates. Then I will be the Luna of this pack and at the same time, he will be the Prince of my Kingdom.

'Don't stare too long. You might fall deeply in love with me.' He winks. I just glare at him in poker face not letting any emotions. 'Okay, that didn't work.' His pick up line didn't work on me. He concentrated on the road and I keep staring at him like I am going to eat him alive. 'You can stare at me until we get to bed.' He murmurs.

I punched him on his arm that makes him lost control of the wheel. He stopped the car hissing at me while rubbing arm. I sat back on my seat looking in front of me. I ignored him staying poker face. I gasped when he pulls my arms to him and he leans on me owning my lips. He was harassing me, invading my lips. I pressed my lips not letting him get in. His hands' grip on my arms. It was harsh of him.

He let go of my swollen lips. He catches his breath, and he released my arms that is probably had his hand mark. He leans his forehead to mine holding the back of my head. His breath was warm and minted. It was attractive and smells addictive.

'Zoë, I can't hold my lust on you anymore.' He said bluntly which makes my eyes widen. 'I am not going to rape you. I respect your body.' He sent shivers on my spine and my heart is beating fast. He strokes his finger on my hair to my face. 'I just wanted to be with my mate… and to become one with her.' Sadness is all he sounds.

'But, I am not your true mate.'

'You are… you just don't know. Although you are rejecting me… although you keep saying that you are not my mate, well, for now, you are my mate. I had marked you.' He even caresses his long forefinger on the mark on the crook of my neck giving me shivers. 'Let me into you, Zoë.' He begs me. He was begging me… why he looks so helpless and hopeless? The Alpha is hopeless? He caressed my lips by his big thumb. I just stare into his green eyes. He kissed my forehead for a long time, and I felt suddenly warm from the coldness.

The next thing happened is, I don't know… I just let him and go with the flow. He was kissing me passionately… slowly… surely… carefully… and I was kissing him back with the same passion and pleasure he gave.
