CHAPTER 21

I was lying in bed that night with Jackson lying in bed next to me and he pulled me

closer to him and I rested my head on his

chest.

“When I got out of the shower you were already in the hallway. You looked pretty troubled about something.” I say.

“Yeah. I was really troubled about

something.” He says.

Are you going to tell me what it was?” I asked looking up at him. And he let out a deep breath and looked hesitant about

talking about it.

“Honestly, it was hearing about what that guy was going to do to you.” He says.

“That he was going to rape me?” I asked. And I could feel Jackson tense up as I said

“I don’t want to think about anyone else

touching you like that.” He says rubbing little circles on my back and I smiled a

little.

“You mean, besides you?” I asked

looking at us both under the covers naked. And he kissed the top of my head.

“I’m not sure that this was such a good idea.” He says. And I stopped moving.

Are you saying that you already regret it?” I asked.

“What? No. I don’t regret it. It’s just, that I’m the Alpha and you’re still in high school.” He says.

“I’ll be 18 soon. Very soon. Besides, since when does that matter around here?” I asked getting a little offensive.

“No. Don’t get upset. I wouldn’t take this back for the world. Believe me. I’m sorry,

I shouldn’t have said anything. I don’t

regret it. And it’s not just because you

were here. It was because it was you that I did it.” He says.

“I’ve noticed that you haven’t had any girls’ coming or going since I moved in.” I commented smirking.

‘Well, I haven’t been interested in any of them.” He says flatly.

If you say so.” I say. And he wrapped his other arm around me and pulled me closer and squeezed me to him. Like he didn’t want to let me go.

I could tell that he didn’t regret it. And I could tell that it wasn’t as mistake. I didn’t feel like it was a mistake. But I knew that it wasn’t something that we could announce to the whole pack either. We needed to be very careful about who found out about this. People thought I was sleeping with the Alpha before and

the rumours went wild. Now that it’s the

truth, it would be even more insane.

I didn’t want Jackson to be distracted by any of that. I could handle myself and the

rumours, but he was the one that I

needed to really think about here. He had the most to lose.

“Taylor.” Jackson says after a long

pause.

“Yeah.” I say.
