Deep Secrets, Selena [fantasy books to read TXT] 📗

I hesitated.
"Don't worry about me healing fast. We need to find my wolf pack."
I went to the couch and sat down. "Oh yeah. Where do you last see them?"
"Last night." I waited for Melissa to say something else, but didn't.
'sigh' "Where? What you do last night."

Melissa

I bit my lower lip. Should I even tell him. He did say he wouldn't tell no one about who I am.

"Melissa. If you expect me to help me to help you, you have tell me. You can trust me." he said. I didn't even know if I could trust him, but I had to. It is the only way to get back to the pack.

"I was in the woods." I said
"You mean in the woods I found you in."
"I don't know."
"Ok. What were you doing in the woods?"
I smooth my hair out my face." I was going to get married."
Kyle's eyebrow rose. "Get married?"
"I just said that."
"Are young to get married?"
"No."
"How old are you?"
"17." Kyle frowned
"Melissa. This is a young age."
"So what. Age is just a number."
"Do your parents agree with this."
"Yes. My Dad was the one who arranged this marriage."
"What?!"
"I said.."
"I know what you said. Is this part of religion or something." He interrupted me. I frowned.
"No."
"Do you even want to do this?'
"I don't know. I'm doing this for the pack. I have to do this."
"Do you get to choose who you want to be with?"
"Of course not. This is for the pack. The pack always come first."
"What about you? Do you ever want to marry someone you love?"
I look in Kyle's eyes and I felt vulnerable, but I shook away that feeling.
"Listen to me Kyle. Love might exist in your world, but it doesn't in mine. I have to marry Antonio. He's an Alpha. It was my destiny to become one. I was suppose to marry him last night, but I couldn't. I was attacked. Now, are you going to help me or not."
Kyle frowned. "Yes for the hundredth time I told you. How old is this Antonio guy."
I rolled my eyes. "19"
"Wow. This is crazy. All of this is crazy. Basically what I'm hearing, you are a slave. You never get to make your own choices. Now you want to go back there and marry a guy you barely even know."
"Kyle, why you care so much about what I do. This is my life. not yours." I stood up and frowned.

Kyle stood up in front of me. "You right. This is your life, but I don't want you to mess it up." He said softly. It warmed my heart when he said it. I growled, but he didn't even flinch.
"Why are we even talking about this"
Kyle sighed and smooth his hair back. "I don't know."
He look into my eyes like he looking in my soul. I shivered, sat down, and looked away. I took a couple of breaths before saying, "Kyle, I need you to help me. Even though you don't agree with everything I do. Everyone needs me. Please."
"Ok. So where do you want me to start working."

I sighed with relief.

Melissa

I told Kyle everything he should know, but it was still dangerous. I never encountered anything like this. My many years of training could never have prepared me for this experience. I always viewed things from the outside, never getting too close. I always was interested in human life. I just get close enough to gain information, but I never had been discovered. No one supposed to get close to humans, but here I am. I basically breaking all the rules. I am telling a human about werewolves and I barely know him. All I know is his name. What if he was working with someone? Were there others nearby, waiting to take me captive? If so, then I have to use force.

"Where am I?" I asked, as I looked around in the room.
"Arkansas. I bet that's far away from where you intended to be." he said.
When he moved, I eyed him with caution, watching as he turned on the light.
"How did you find me?"

Kyle

I look at Melissa and gave a little laugh to calm my nerves. "Are you serious?" I asked

"What's so funny? Of course I'm serious." she said.
"Oh. I was hiking outside to explore the woods, but I fell down the hill."
"Is that how you got your cut?"
"What cut?"
"On your arm." I looked at my arm and there was a long cut on it. It wasn't bleeding any more.
"Oh, I forgot about this." I smiled, but she didn't smile back. 'sigh'. I smooth my hair back.

"What happened next?" she asked
"I found you. You were lying there unconscious."
"If I was unconscious, why didn't you leave me."
"You are so weird. Mostly people would say thank you, but you wanted me to leave you."


Melissa frowned and pulled her long blonde hair out her face. "Well, I'm not like most people. You must have forgotten that I'm a werewolf."
"Here you go again."
"What?"
"You starting another argument."
"No I'm not."
"Yes.. you are. Every time we get out of an argument, you start another one. Do your life involve around arguments? Calm the hell down for once."
"Well excuse me. All I ask is a question and you getting an attitude about it."
"Because, you always getting a attitude. You are crazy. You never show no emotion. You supposed to trust me, but I could still tell you are holding something back."
"Just tell me why you brought me here. Are you working with someone? Why didn't you leave me there to die?" she said angrily.
"Why do you want to know so bad?"
"Because, I want to. Now tell me!!"
"I wanted to help you. When I saw you laying there so still, I thought you was dead, but you was still breathing. I really hadn't expect you to survive." Melissa was about to say something, but stopped herself. "Can you just thank me and get over it?"
She hesitated before saying "Thank you."
We sat there in uncomfortable silence. I just couldn't take it no more.

"Come with me." I said as I stood up and put on my jacket.
"Where are we going?" She followed my every move.
"I'm going to take you to the spot where I found you."
"In the woods?"
"Yes. You would probably remember some things from last night."

I gave Melissa my jacket for she could put on. I grabbed a book bag, put a flash light and first aid kit. I also wrote a note to put on the door to tell everyone that I was taking a hike. Melissa followed me out the door as I taped the note on the door. While we were walking, I could feel Melissa looking at me. When I look back at her, she would look away. I smirked and kept walking.

Melissa

The cool air felt good against my skin, but my hair kept blowing in my face.

"Are we almost there?" I asked. I smooth my hair out my face. I waited for Kyle to answer, but he didn't. "Are we there yet?" I asked impatiently.
"I don't know." he said
I frowned. What you mean, you don't know?" I didn't notice that he stopped, so I ran against him and we start rolling down the hill. When we stopped at the bottom, I landed on top of him. "What the hell, Kyle?! I could have attacked you, you idiot."
"But you didn't." he grinned
"Shut up, I could have killed you." My hair covered us. "This is all your fault! If you answered my questions when I asked, we wouldn't be in this situation."
"Of course you going to blame me. Blame the human."
"Yes, I'm blaming you. You humans are clumsy."
"What about werewolves? You didn't even watch were you were going."
"Werewolves always pay attention. We watch were we are going."
"Well, you the first werewolf I see who don't do it."

I wanted to say something, but I stopped myself. And then I start to realize I was still on top of him. We were pressed together, close enough that my breath ruffled his hair. He was that gorgeous.

He raised his eyebrow, the smirk getting more pronounced and he was a human. Which meant, he probably know that I'm thinking about how pretty he was.

'Crap' I thought to myself. Totally unfair. I pushed up on my palms to launch myself off him before I embarrassed myself completely and irrevocably.

"Hey." he said as he watched me back away as if he was dangerous. He looked entirely too pleased with himself. "Where are you going?"

"Back to the cabin." Double crap. What if he thought that was an invitation. When, exactly, had I
