Chapter 4

Knock, knock, knock came from the door, and Sarah went to open it, we had finished eating breakfast and just about to go to the hall, the door opened.

“Hello” Sarah said.

"Oh no I can smell him, what does he want?"

“Hi, I’m Aiden is Scarlett in?” How does he know where I live, this guy, is he a stalker or something? I thought to myself as I hid behind the bedroom door,

“Scarlett, there is a guy called Aiden at the door for you” she said walking into the bedroom looking for me, she spotted me behind the door,

“and he is cute too” she whispered pulling me from my hiding spot.

“Go talk to him” she said ignoring all the gestures I was making saying to tell him that I was not around. and she pushed me out of the bedroom into the kitchen and was relentless until we reached the door. She is strong, nothing I did seemed to make any impact, no matter how much I tried I couldn’t stop her.

“Oh, hi Aiden, what are you doing here?” he looked hot, he wore a t-shirt and jeans again with a brown leather jacket this time, he looked so sexy, I swallowed the lump that had built up in my throat from just looking at him.

“I came to escort my lady to the hall” he said holding his hand out to me. My lady, did he just say my lady? I thought to myself. I am no one’s possession and yet the possessive hint in his voice turned me on, for whatever reason I liked it and for the life of me I couldn’t figure out why…

“Oooooh” the girls swooned and giggled, I rolled my eyes and took his hand. We walked towards the hall hand in hand the feel of his skin on mine sent goosebumps up and down my spine and I felt butterflies in my stomach. I tried to nudge my hand away, but he was holding on so tight that I just gave up.

“How do you know which house I stay in?” I asked really wanting to know.

“Are you sure you’re a wolf” he said with a soft chuckle,

“the only thing I smell here is you, in this whole campus the only scent that calls to me is yours, I will know where you are as long as I live” I stopped and looked at him looking for a hint of sarcasm or that he was joking but nothing, he was really genuine. I nudged my hand away and looked at him in bewilderment,

“bu... but it’s only the first day of school, you know nothing about me and..” before I could finish my sentence his lips were on mine, they were soft and welcoming, the kiss was gentle and slowly turned passionate, I got lost in it, he bit my lower lip to gain access and his tongue explored my mouth and made me dizzy with need, I put my hands around his neck and he pulled me closer by my waist and a small moan escaped my lips, what is this guy doing to me? I can’t resist his touch, I leaned in deeper to the kiss wanting more needing more, my body begging him for more.

“Hehe hem” we pulled away from each other the both of us out of breath we looked towards the sound, and it was an older looking gentleman, I had never seen him before

“Hello Mr Martin” Aiden said trying to compose himself.

“The assembly is about to start” Mr Martin said looking at me with judgment,

“Yes sir” I said literally running towards the hall not caring that I was leaving Aiden behind. The first day of school and I already have a reputation, I sighed as I berried my head in my hands, this boy is going to be the death of me, I need to avoid him at all cost, I sat at the back with my head on my lap my hands nailing it there. I needed time with my thoughts. I need a plan, the only thing I smell here is you, in this whole campus the only scent that calls to me is yours, I will know where you are as long as I live, his words echoed in my head.

“no, no, no, no, there is no escape”

“He is not your mate, it’s just physical, he just wants you cause you are the only other wolf here” my wolf said in a matter-of-fact way,

“Oh my goodness he is just using me” this made me so mad that I felt like I was going to turn right then and there in the middle of the assembly, in front of all these humans, the thought of exposing my kind wasn’t a concern right now, right now I needed to find that jerk Aiden and tell him where to get off, the more I thought of it the angrier I got, I started to feel that all too familiar sensation of turning, I started getting hot and the hairs started growing on the back of my hands and my nails started to protract,

“I have to get out of here… excuse me” I said pushing people out of the way, I ran to the bathroom and locked myself in the stall.

“Calm down Scarlett, breath… breath” I said to myself trying to stop the transformation, I had just got myself under control when I heard the bathroom door open and I could tell by the sound of the shoes that this was not a female but a male who had just entered, and I froze and said nothing, but I knew full well who it was, I could smell him anywhere, even on me, his scent was all over me.

“Scarlett are you planning on staying in there all day?” he said teasingly. This guy what is wrong with him, why is he so familiar? He acts like we have been best friends forever, why is he doing this to me?, am I just another conquest to him? I’m sure this is one of those rituals the rich do, being the Alpha’s kid, he must have some sort of target to meet…well guess what mister I won’t be your next victim. My anger rose up again and I pulled the stall door open, I looked at him with a look that let him know that if he made one wrong move I was going to kill him. I could tell by the look on his face that he was surprised and didn’t know what the hell he did wrong.

“Are you okay?” he asked looking at me trying to find a clue of what he could have done wrong,

“You son of a bitch, you think just because you happen to go to the same school as me and that you can scent me that I should automatically be yours, I mean where do you get off clamming me and telling me that I’m the only one you can scent here and you will be scenting me your whole life, do you think it will be that easy to get into my pants, huh?!” I said glaring at him,

“Uh Scarlett, what’s going on?” he asked with this confused look on his face, man he looks cute

“Stop it Scar, concentrate” my wolf brought me back to my senses,

“You think just because you are the Alphas son you have a claim on me, you think you can just take whatever you want, whoever you want, whenever you want, well guess what, this is off limits” I said gesturing up and down my body,

“I’m sorry if I made you feel like I was clamming you, I honestly thought the feeling was mutual” he said, wait what was that? I thought I saw a hint of hurt in his eyes, I shook my head, focus Scarlett don’t start feeling sorry for him,

“Well, I hope that we are now on the same page” I said taking a deep breath preparing to end this once and for all,

“I’m not yours to claim, I’m not yours to scent, stay away from me from now on Aiden” I gave him one last look and left him in the girl’s bathroom. When I got to the hall the assembly was over, and it was time for my first class, I put everything that just happened out of my mind and went to class.
