Synopsis
Some people would say that only
a coward runs, but I'd say running away from Point Bright and the
people I once loved most is the hardest damn thing I've ever had to
do.
The possibility of losing my
friends due to my inherent need to flee is an entirely new sort of
hurt, one I haven't felt before and the fact that I have lost
myself over these past few months has almost killed me; I need to
find myself again.
I have to get back to the
strong girl I was before Point Bright broke me, seriously messing
with my head. I’m not sure how and if I can ever possibly be that
person again but I must try. Too much has happened, too much crazy
shit has gone down.
I now know things I never
thought could ever be remotely possible when I was innocent and
naïve.
That girl, the one with the
pure heart is long gone and left in her wake… is me, the girl with
the tainted one.
My heart has been repeatedly
splintered only to be mended then shattered again.
In one night I lost the boy who
continually hurt me whilst also insisting I was his world. The same
boy who made me feel like I mattered… even if that meant forcing me
to love him.
Maybe the beatings worked after
all?
Or maybe I'm just a stupid
lonely girl trying to make up for the neglect I have experienced in
the previous few years. Even after all the crap he put me through,
I continued to love him fiercely and stood by him only to find him
in bed with her.
Then there's Jax, I loved him
from the moment I laid eyes on him but I knew I could never have
him. Then I found out he was my mate; well surely it was destiny
telling us that we were meant to be together?
To have him reject me because
he believed I was too weak to be the Luna of his pack broke me more
than the beatings ever could.
He really doesn't know how
wrong he is!
I now have to leave behind the
girls who have been more like sisters to me, leaving all this pain
behind.
My destination is my parents
pack house. What I don't expect is to smack head first into a
really muscular chest, only to find out…
I've found my second
chance mate.
Prologue
As I step out
of the car, I’m immediately hit with a sense of
deja vu. The sound of
people’s voices and laughter coming from inside the pack
house fills my eardrums. My parents obviously have pack members
over.
I make my
way
up the porch stairs as a
familiar feeling, the same feeling which overwhelmed me hours
before, comes rushing into me like a gust of wind. I stop myself
from barrelling over as I lean against the pillar on top of the
stairs catching my breath, rubbing the palms of my hands against my
eyes trying to clear my pulsing vision. It seems to work a little
bit. I’m able to see a little clearer as I turn and face the front
door.
My sense of smell is
playing games with me too. It’s a mix of two very distinct smells;
spicy and sweet. The spicy scent is intensely manly making my
insides throb with need whilst the sweetness to the scent makes my
mouth water. I’m completely confused but manage to slow my steps a
little as I try to figure out where this amazing smell is coming
from.
I swear it’s
making me drool.
Whatever it
is…it’s deliciously familiar.
The scent is
seriously strong,
it can only
mean that my mate is a rather powerful one. After all that I’ve
been through, I’m not sure whether that is a good thing or if it’s
bad. I move to lean against the wooden railing on the porch with
the palm of my hand resting against my forehead. Closing my eyes I
try to calm by beating heart as well as the dizziness that is
forming due to the power that is radiating from within the
house.
My body is
trembling,
I’m not sure if I’m
excited to find out who he is or if I’m terrified that I might be
rejected for a second time this evening, especially when they
figure out I’m human.
I anxiously walk towards
the front door, the shivers running through my body intensify as I
get closer. It’s as if tiny electrical currents are running through
me from head to toe, but all I can focus on right now is my mate.
Everything else that happened this evening doesn’t mean shit right
now.
I place my hand on the
door knob and as I’m just about to turn it, the door flings open
pulling me with it and I go flying into a hard chest.
I gasp as I’m winded.
“Mate
,” he
growls.
CHAPTER 1
My hands rest
on his chest
at my eye level,
his strong hands holding either side of my upper arms firmly. I
look at my finger tips and I can feel tingles surging through them
where they touch his body, over his blue golf shirt.
“Tyler,
” I whisper,
out of breath.
I look up to
his beaut
iful face and his
eyes that are as dark as night. If I had to have seen these dark
eyes months ago I would have been scared stiff, most probably
running for the hills. Now… after everything and how I’ve grown to
love the twins, I know they would never hurt me. They are my
heart.
My second chance mate is
Tyler, my sweet, loving Tyler.
I smile to myself as I
look into his handsome face. As always he’s walking perfection. His
black hair is combed over and tucked behind his ears, still long
enough to touch the collar of his shirt, but every strand in place.
His face is clean shaven and silky smooth too.
So perfect and all mine.
He brings his hand up to
my face and pushes a few stray tendrils away from my eyes. ^ My
eyes find his again and I watch as his now blue ones stare lovingly
into my own.
“I knew
it…
felt it… we were always
meant to be,” he says softly, in his mesmerising deep voice as he
continues to look from my eyes to my lips.
I smile
as soon as he places both of his
hands on my face stroking along my jawline with his thumbs. A
shiver runs down my spine and I lean my head into his
touch.
I place my hands on
either side of his waist, steadying myself. He leans down and rubs
his cheek against mine so gently, closing my eyes I breathe him
in.
He pulls away from me
just a little, his lips lingering close enough that I can feel his
irregular breathing against my own dry lips. Leaning forwards, he
brushes his lips against mine softly but I can’t control myself;
it’s as if my body is calling to his… needing to touch, desperate
to be closer.
I dig my fingers into his
hips, scrunching up the fabric of his shirt between my fingertips.
I push my lips against his, earning a growl from him as his mouth
attacks mine. He chuckles against my lips as he pushes me against
the now closed door, his warm hands holding my face firmly as his
lips meet mine again. We continue to kiss each other, not caring if
anyone sees.
I pull away and he lets
out a soft growl causing me to let out a small laugh at his
impatience. I can feel the burn in my cheeks; I know my blushing is
obvious, it always is. I mean… it’s not something I can hide with
my pale skin. Tyler just stares silently, looking my face over with
a small smile on his.
My eyes catch something
behind him. Looking over his shoulder, I come to my senses
realising there’s a girl… or should I say a beautiful woman
standing a few feet away behind Tyler looking confused. Just like
Tyler, she’s matched to perfection in all her blondness and long
shapely legs.
Tyler follows my line of
sight. His face pales as he instantly removes his hands from my
face drawing them into loose fists as if my skin has burnt
him.
He looks at me then back to the
woman.
“What the hell, Tyler?”
She says through sobs. I watch as tears start to fall down her
pretty face.
Tyler stumbles for words as he
walks slowly towards the beautiful woman with his palms up facing
her.
