 I drove home,still thinking about the almost kiss.

I wanted to kiss him,it wasn't as if I didn't want to.

In fact,the urge had been so strong,it was almost impossible not to.

But the tiny bit of common sense I had left showed up and brought me back to reality.

I was about to kiss an enemy! The picture of him and that girl popped up in my head and I just couldn't seem to kiss him anymore.

Jared's face screamed no in my mind and I felt guilt afterwards.

But I had no right to think of his face while I was about to kiss Blade.

I thought of how familiar his eyes had been,identical to my mate's.

Goosebumps formed throughout my body just thinking about it.

Almost.

The word echoed in my mind.

When I reached my house I found my mom on the dining table,having her late lunch.

“There's a pack meeting today,” she said without looking up,” Even kids.” I nodded,noticing just how much my head hurt; What time?” "g° For the next four and a half hours I studiedshowered and ate.

By the time it was eight o'clock,I was all dressed and ready.

I settled in the awkward silence as my mother drove to the pack house.

“You don't look good,” she said after a while.

I shrugged,” I feel sick.

It's fine though.” The pack house was a large,a nude colored mansion with beautiful sculptures of plants.

Inside,the massive living rooms had black leather couches and maroon colored walls.

Expensive painting hung above the couches,glinting beautifully in the light.

A glass table,so sensitive looking stood on all fours in the middle.

People packed the place.

I caught sight of Lisa,John,Jared and Jasmine.

I would have left to say hi to my dad but he stood in the far left speaking with the alphas wife.

I walked towards Lisa's direction and took a seat beside her.
