Let Me Count The Ways
“Kevin asked me out,” I announce during lunchtime.
“Kevin? Kevin who?” questions Penny, her fries suspend in mid–air.
“He’s the human who sat on the other side of me yesterday, and again today in English Lit?” How can she not know this? Duh!
“Well, we shouldn’t discriminate. You definitely should go out with him,” Reese says encouragingly.
“But I’m not interested in him like that, I don’t want to lead him on. Besides, I just smiled at him yesterday, and he’s convinced that I liked him. Imagine if I agreed to go out with him…he might think we’re getting married and ready to have babies by noon tomorrow or something.”
Reese, River, and Penny seem to think that’s funny.
Penny starts singing. “Genesis and Kevin sitting in a tree, K–I–S- S–1–N–G! First, comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes baby-”
“Genesis, can I talk to you?” Logan Carrington cuts in, looking murderous.
Oh boy, it seems like he’s been walking around with a frown these days.
I can feel my wolf Ezra getting excited and annoyed at the same time. That heavenly scent that only Logan Carrington carries is driving my wolf insane Jeven when I’m still furious with him.
My three friends are staring daggers at Logan, but he returns their death glares with his own, which is quite impressive, given that he’s the future alpha and all. Then he turns and walks away without a backward glance, expecting me to follow him. Wow, this seems familiar.
I reluctantly get to my feet.
“You know you don’t have to go with him, right?” says River, looking miffed.
“You know if I didn’t, he’s just gonna get madder and comes back here and makes me go with him anyway, right?”
“I could kick him in the nuts,” mutters Reese heatedly.
Penny blows her bangs off her forehead. “I could
cut
off his nuts.
“Okay, enough talking about his nuts already,” Iinterrupt. “See you guys soon. If I didn’t make it, tell my parents I love them, and there’s some money in my underwear drawer.”
River’s lips twitch and look as if he has some lewd comments he wants to share,but I walk away quickly before he opens his mouth.
“Took you long enough,” snaps Logan when I reach the oak tree where he rejected me over a week ago.
“Who’s Kevin?” he growls.
His sea blue eyes are just so gorgeous. Gosh, what am I thinking?
“That really is none of your business. So what’s up?” I
away from his gaze.
Despite all the pain that he put me through, he still gives me butterflies when he’s near me. When he looks into my eyes, I get lost in his gaze. Ihate that I’m feeling this way.
“That’s not the way you should be talking to me, Genesis. Everything you do is my business. So, who’s Kevin?” He sounds so possessive.
“Does it matter? Like I said, none of your business.”
“Like I said, everything you do is my business. So, is he your boyfriend now?”
“Why do you care? You’re not my mate. You’re nothing to me.”
As soon as the words left my mouth, his lips slam on mine. I feel the roughness of the tree bark on my back as I’m being pushed against it. It takes me a few seconds to comprehend what’s happening, but my body is already responding to his kiss and his touch. Ezra is close to the surface, taking some control. I feel the delicious sparks breaking all over my body as he leans in further, pushing his body flush against mine.
Fireworks.
Our bodies fit perfectly together. This is supposed to be wrong but, damn, it feels so right. It’s impossible for me not to respond to his touch. My lips are moving against his and his warm hand is touching, traveling up and down from the sides of my breasts, moving to grip my waist, down to my thighs, then up again. Another hand is in my hair, holding my head still for his onslaught.

My hands move up to his neck, then move up some more to grip his hair. He pulls back just to have his lips move across my jaw and down my neck, kissing, licking and biting.
“Goddess….you smell so good.” He groans, breathing in deeply before he latches onto the base of my neck and starts sucking. The feel of his sharp canine against my skin suddenly brings me out of my lust–filled haze. I push him roughly off me.
The pain! No!
We’re staring at each other, breathing hard and raggedly. Even now, he looks so hot to me; lips red and swollen; his usually blue eyes, now dark and dangerous; golden hair in wild disarray.
“You feel that? We’re mates whether we like it or not.” he barks
