The Night Wolf novel Chapter 51

"What is this?" Asked Rowan.

"Breakfast." Said Willow before freezing.

In front of her were two sleek sports cars parked. Willow was sure no one in her neighborhood drives them. Shaking her head, Willow was about to head to the garage when Rowan pulled at her hand.

"That is our ride." Said Rowan pointing at the black car.

"That's yours?"

Rowan nodded.

"Did you not say that you were trying to lay low here?" At least that is what Rowan had told her on the ride back from the palace, which had taken more four hours. It was one hell of a long ride.

Rowan nodded again.

"Are you sure you can lay low with cars like those?"

"What about the Hummer?"

Willow looked where Rowan was pointing at, and there was a Hummer, standing confidently.

"Now that will do." Even though it was far from staying low, but it was better than those sleek sports cars, way quieter than the loud sports cars, though it was bigger in size. "Okay bye now, see you at school."

Rowan didn't let go of her hand. "Where are you going?"

Willow didn't know how to bring this up, so she had left it for the last moment. "Well, you see," Willow began slowly. "I'm not really liked at school, so it'll be better if you act like you don't know me-"

"Willow-"

"-I don't want your school life to be affected by me. I really want you to enjoy school like anyone would and I get it-"

"Willow-"

"-that you were homeschooled your whole life and school can be fun someti-"

"Willow!" Rowan yelled.

"Why are you yelling?"

"You're my mate okay? I don't care what people think of you, we'll be together forever, and if they don't like it they can just fuck off."

Felix looked at her she had gone crazy. "Did you not know?"

Willow looked at Rowan. "You mean mate is short for Soulmate?"

"Yes." Said Rowan as he followed the instructions given by the GPS. "And when those people say 'mate' they mean to say Soulmate."

"But why would they?" Said Willow. "Why would they even think that Hunter out of all people is my soulmate?"

Willow couldn't believe it. Hunter was the reason that her life was turned into hell. How could anyone ever do that to their soulmate? Fine, she might have had liked him at some point but that was all her hormones, what she felt for Hunter couldn't even put a candle to what she currently felt for Rowan.

Willow shook her head, sighing. These people must think of her as a masochist, that she loved pain in that way, which she didn't. Is that why they thought that they were soulmates?

"Wait," said Willow when she remembered someone. "Is JR a Vampire-no he must be a Werewolf, isn't he?"

"He is."

Willow wondered if Melody knew. Now that she thought about it, Melody also used to call him her 'mate' and she also had a-

"You bit me yesterday." Said Willow, her face heating up. "Melody has something similar on her neck, and it's been there for a year. Won't this go away?" Willow pointed at the place where the bite rested, which was covered by her sweater.
