making his flaming red hair tussle a bit.

 

                "You can say that," she said with a shrug of her shoulders. "Why do you keep on saying 'rich kids'?" She asked curiously as she took out the lunch bag that held a few granola bars, a sandwich and a few bags of chips.

 

                "Well this school is full of them, I dont partially like kids that are spoiled and always have what they want with a flick of their wrist," he explained his face features hardening as he thought about the many kids that used to tease him and make fun of him for being poor.

 

                "You have something against them? They aren't all bad," she said as she took a bite out of her food. Her eyes trained on the many teenagers that were chatting in joy and eating their lunch outside.

 

                "So where are these big scary relatives of yours?" He asked avoiding her question.

 

                She wondered why he avoided her question, but they barely met she just couldn’t ask every single thing about him and expect him to answer. Maybe it’s just too personal for him to answer, and she needs to stop thinking about this.

 

                "Speaking about my scary relatives here they come now," she said her face grimacing as she noticed a group of humongous scary looking men walking toward them. Heath turned his head toward the direction and almost chocked on the water he was drinking.

 

                "Those are your relatives?" He asked bemused as he took note of the guys dressed in hardcore bad-ass outfits. Some of them had mustaches, or were wearing dark sunglasses. A few of her cousins were wearing black leather jackets and had a cigar sticking out of their mouths. They all looked like gang members, it was hard to believe these guys were all fellow followers of her.

 

                "Hi guys," she waved happily at them, her eyes sparkling as they reached them. Heath swallowed nervously wondering what kind of problem he had gotten himself into. All the guys sent murderous glares at him, and he stiffened in his seat.

 

                One of the normal looking guys came up and hugged Lisa, "Hello my darling, how are you?"

 

                "I'm doing fine, Nick. How about you?"

 

                "Doing fine, just broke up with my boyfriend and looking for a mighty sex god to lift me up from these sorrows," he said chuckling along with her as they cached up.

 

                Heath smiled politely at the other guys trying to be friendly but instead of receiving a positive feedback, was sent an alarming of menacing remarks. He laughed nervously to himself and faked cough to get the attention of Lisa.

 

                "So um, Lisa are these all your relatives?" He asked his eyes pleading to make her look at the glares sent his way.

 

                "No, these are some of my cousins, there are still more most are male, but they are the best family you could ask for," she said with a shrug as if it wasn’t that much of a big deal for her to have a lot of male protectors.

 

                "Oh, cool," he lied but when he saw her bright smile almost like a beam of sunlight it enlightened his mood. He found his lips tugging into a smile, and everything around him evaporated into thin air leaving him and her alone.

 

                The day flowed by too quickly for their liking, it seemed that Lisa couldn't think of anything else around her except for this silly boy that with a single look made her insides melt and her face softened. She wasn't sure what this perplex emotion toward him meant, all she knew is that he was important to her. She admitted there was some kind of physical attraction between her and Heath that seemed to disobey the law of mates.

 

                She hasn't met her mate, but even she knew that Heath isn't her mate, it was just impossible and forbidden. Her kind only mated with werewolves, it was unheard of that a werewolf had a soul mate as a human. Yet as every passing day, the attraction between her and him grew closer.

 

                He was the troublemaker of the school always voicing out his thoughts, and making a bunch of trouble at class. It always amused her how he acted always trying to make her laugh and smile. He had his serious moments where he would talk about his problems, then asked her if she had any. But she couldn't bring herself to tell him about her fiancé.

 

                Speaking about her fiancé, she hadn't seen him all week. He was supposed to hang around with her and spend more time with him, but he has been kept busy with pack business. There has been reports of rogues invading small local towns and killing innocent people. The rogues seemed to be increasing in size, and Dalton has been trying to pin-point their location. Dalton has reported that these un-tamable rogues had combined and formed a pack of their own, led by an unknown werewolf.

 

                If these rogues keep on increasing they are going to become a really big trouble, and could result in a war. Lisa and her pack need to count on him and make sure that Dalton captures these dangerous werewolves.

                "Will you go on a date with me?" Heath asked his cheeks held a red crimson almost the color of his hair. He swallowed nervously and scratched the back of his neck nervously, his blue orbs looking at the pavement too shy to look up to meet her eyes.

 

                Lisa felt her cheeks blush too, and she didn’t know what to do. Should she say yes? Was there any harm in going on a date with a guy she had over the past days developed a crush over?

 

                "Yes, I would love to," she said a smile stretching across her face.

 

                Heath air punched and smiled brightly at her answer. He had been nervous that she would say no and spoil his little plan, but she had agreed and now the plan is in action. He just knew that this is going to be the best day of his life.

 

                "So um I'll pick you up, at around six in the afternoon. Where do you live?" He asked that smile still on his face.

 

                "I live on Dawson Rd. The house is the only one there, you can't miss it," She answered. Heath nodded and then asked her if she wanted an escort to her car. "Yeah, thanks," she nodded.

 

                "So where are we spending this little date at?" She pried wanting to know what to wear to this special place he is taking her to.

 

                "It's a surprise, and you can wear anything normal," he said almost as if he read her mind. When they reached the car he couldn't help himself and kissed her softly on her cheek. "See you in a few," he said as he ran away leaving her dumbfounded and holding her cheek with surprise.

 

                “Miss. Forrest? Are you okay?” Her driver asked in concern as he took in her flushed state. The driver waited for her answer but got none, because Lisa stood on her feet looking at the retreating back of the redhead.

 

                “I’m fine, Daniel. I was just surprised,” Lisa answered once his words sinked in, she turned around and entered the sleek car. “Take me home, please,” she muttered.

                "How do I look?" Lisa asked her friend Jenny who was casually rested on a couch her brown hair pooling over the armrest and her feet dangling from the side.

 

                Jenny pulled out the lollipop from her mouth, and gave her a thumbs up. "You look hot, but you're showing too much cleavage pick up your shirt," she answered.

 

                Lisa gave her an Are-you-kidding-me look, and picked up her shirt a bit. "God, I wasn’t showing anything Jenny," she retorted.

 

                "So? Any guys will go crazy if they saw even a little bit of skin, they're animals Lisa. They're like bunnies, always getting horny and wanting to get laid what a bunch of pathetic humans can't handle their hormones," she pointed out in disgust.

 

                "Jenny werewolves are worst, especially when you go into heat," Lisa countered as she looked at her hair.

 

                "Don't remind me, heat is that day you get so horny you'll do it with anything that moves or just your mate. My heat is predicted to come in a month and I don't want a whole week of torture unless my mate is there to stop it," she said with a snort.

 

                "You can’t stop it unless you and your mate have sex," Lisa said with a roll of her eyes.

 

                Heat only happens to women werewolves between the ages of sixteen through eighteen and it’s a full week of torture, because their bodies feel as if someone is burning them in fire and the only way to stop it is to have sex with your soul mate. Lisa hasn't gotten her heat yet, but she is hoping her mate will come in time and help her through it.

 

                "I know, that sucks because there is like a sixty percent chance you might get pregnant. So I decided to screw that and not have sex with Sebastian until I'm like twenty four," Jenny said determined.

 

                "Sure Jenny," Lisa said with a chuckle.

 

                A knock on the door interrupted them, and the two girls faced the door watching as a pack member came in the room. "A young man is waiting for you outside, Lisa," he said then left the room closing the door behind him.

 

                "He's here! Go get him Lisa! Don't get raped though!" Jenny said as she pushed her toward the door. Lisa rolled her eyes playfully and nodded her head as Jenny walked with her to the front door where Heath was standing near.

 

                Jenny smiled in approval of Heath, and winked. "Have fun Lisa, if I were you I would keep that man to myself,” she said before going to another direction to give them their space.

 

                Lisa walked up to Heath, wondering at what he was looking at. She followed his gaze and looked at the picture of a pack of wolfs huddling together under the moonlight. It was a present from a neighboring pack, and the picture was just magnificent.

 

                "Ready to go?" She asked.

 

                Heath startled looked at Lisa and chuckled nervously, "Yeah, sorry I guess I was spacing out."

 

                "It’s okay, now let’s go I want to know where you are taking me," she said as she grabbed his arm and pulled him to the door.

                "I can't stay up Heath," Lisa said her temper flared when she for the fifth time tried to stand up straight on the cold surface.

 

                "Lisa it’s your first time, of course you won’t get it so easily," he said as he glided on his skates toward her, he stopped just beside her and outstretched his hand out for her.

 

                Lisa reached for his hand and when their fingers touched she felt tingles run up her arm. Heath pulled her up and she crashed against his chest. His blue eyes glowed as they stared into her
