Chapter 36

I knew he was still here. The weight of him against me and the heat that was radiating from him was
like a comfort blanket. Groaning I moved closer to him, this felt right, us being like this felt right.

He was still here....oh shit!

Pushing him off I almost fell out the bed. He couldn't be here when she got home. Grabbing my phone I
groaned, it wasn't even 7 o'clock. I was so tired, my eyes hurt, my head hurt. Pulling my curtain open I
wished I hadn't. The weather was still bad, the wind had really picked up. It was dark and miserable
outside.

"Babe come back to bed". He groaned. "And shut that damn curtain". Letting the curtain loose my eyes
fell into slits. I don't know who he thought he was talking to like that.

"You need to leave". Yes I was being petty by asking him to leave but I also didn't need the third degree
from my gran. Huffing he rolled over throwing his arm over his eyes.

"What time is it?". He asked.

"Time for you to go home". Picking up his jeans I threw them at him grinning when they landed on his
face.

He growled.

That was something I don't think I'll ever get used to.

"You're on thin ice princess". Removing the jeans he placed them on the floor. My grin grew. I kinda
liked getting under his skin.

"Well I can be on thin ice later. Get up and go home". His eyes opened, the glare evident. Someone
was a little cranky this morning.



"You seriously trying to kick me out?". Rubbing his eyes a yawn escaped his mouth. "Come back to
bed and stop being silly". Rolling over he slid his hand under my pillow and closed his eyes.

Seriously?

I was having heart palpitations at the thought of my gran walking in and he wanted to go back to sleep?

"Stop overthinking everything and get in the damn bed". He sighed.

"Jake my gran-..."

"Who cares if she catches us we're only sleeping now get in the fucking bed before I come get you". He
growled.

That growl did something to my insides.

It was really early and the weather was still bad. I don't even know if she would make it home at all. If
she did catch us like this would it be so bad? She did like him but then again he was in my bed.
Whether she liked him or not I knew she wouldn't approve.

"Leah". He snapped causing me to jump.

"So grumpy". I huffed pulling his hoodie over my head. I was going to make some coffee and call her.

"I'm tired Leah. We only fell asleep a few hours ago. I need my sleep babe". Rolling my eyes I pulled
my curtain back again. Big mistake on my part. "I swear to fuck. Shut that damn curtain and get back
into bed. I won't tell you again". I knew his teeth were clenched. I couldn't tell with the tone of his voice.

This was my house. He couldn't tell me what to do in here. In fact he couldn't tell me what to do period.
Closing the curtain I walked towards my door pulling it open. "I'm going for coffee". He didn't reply but



just to get under his skin that little bit more I slammed the door shut behind me, smirking when I heard
him cursing.

Who did he think he was speaking to me like that in my own home. Reaching my living room I turned
the heating on. The air was a little cold this morning and I didn't do cold. Walking into the kitchen I
sighed when I realised I hadn't cleaned up the chicken I dropped last night. Flicking the switch on the
kettle I fixed my cup and put the chicken in the bin.

My phone was still laying on the island where I left it. Checking it I sighed with relief when I noticed my
signal was back. Pressing her number I put the phone to my ear.

"Leah, Are you okay?".

"I'm okay just tired. Are you okay, are you coming home?". I didn't like that she wasn't here.

"Did you go stay with Alanna?". She asked.

"I'm at home". I sighed. "But I'm okay. They shut everything down here when the weathers bad like this.
Schools shut".

"I heard which is why I wanted you to go and stay with Alanna. I don't want you to be on your own".

I wanted to tell her I wasn't on my own. I had a gigantic werewolf keeping me company. Wait, was she
not coming home today?

"They shut everything here Leah. I can't get back home until the storms over. They aren't letting
anyone in or out". She sighed.

This was ridiculous.

"Where are you staying?". I asked pouring some hot water into my cup.



"It's a good thing George doesn't live in this town". She laughed. "We're safe I just want you to be safe
until I can come home".

"I'm safe gran I just-..." I gasped as his arms circled my waist. Gritting my teeth I nudged him with my
hips. What the hell was he playing at?

"Leah, you there?".

"I'm-I'm here". With his hands against my stomach I inhaled deeply when they started to move. This
wasn't okay, why did he think this was okay? Around my waist, down onto my hips and moving so they
were resting against my ass.

"Hopefully this blows over in a few days. Cell reception isn't great honey but I have to know you're
okay. Don't be by yourself, I could call Charlotte if-.."

"No it's okay". Stomping my foot on top of his I made a face when he hissed. "I'm all good on my own. I
like the quiet". Moving away from him I smirked at his glare.

"Stay safe sweetheart. I'll check in with you every few hours. Is there enough food, I can't remember if
there's enough food. Oh god you're appointment for your hand, you can't go out in that".

I had forgotten all about that.

"I'm sure they'll reschedule my appointment so don't panic and there's lots of food so I'm not going to
starve. Tell George I said hi and I'll speak to you soon okay?".

"Okay sweetheart. I'll see you soon. Love you Leah".

"I love you too. Speak soon". Ending the call I picked up my cup. My glare was matching his.



"You're a feisty little thing". He hissed. "But do that again and I'll take you over my knee". His nostrils
flared, his eyes growing dark. He could flare his nostrils all he wanted. I didn't care.

Rolling my eyes I sipped some of my coffee. "You need to leave". Just because she couldn't get home
didn't mean he could stay. I didn't want him to stay.

Lies.

He smirked.

I didn't like when he smirked. It meant he was thinking.

"You don't want me to leave princess". As the words left his mouth he was moving towards me. Every
step he took I took one back.

"You can't stay here". I couldn't break the stare, couldn't take my eyes off his.

"You heard what your gran said. She doesn't want you to be alone".

Another step closer.

"That doesn't mean you can stay. I'm a big girl I can look after myself". I took another step back. I
couldn't let him touch me. If he did that then I knew I would let him stay. I still needed time to think.

"I never said you couldn't look after yourself".

"Then leave".

"Why do you want me to leave?".

I don't.



"Because I-." I gasped. How did he get so close without me noticing. Taking the cup I was holding he
placed it on the counter top.

"You don't want me to leave baby". Brushing his fingers against my cheek my eyes closed. He was
right I didn't want him to leave. Feeling his hand against my waist he pulled me flush against him a sigh
escaping my mouth. "You want me to stay". He whispered. I could feel his breath against my lips. I was
like putty in his hands. This bond was driving me crazy. "Let me stay a little". Feeling his lips against
mine I kissed him back. "Just until the storm passes". He whispered placing another kiss against my
lips. It was light but it hit me like a train. "Just let me be here". This time I felt his breath against my
neck. He placed a kiss there, his tongue tasting my skin.

I moaned.

What the..... He did it again.

"You taste like the fucking ocean". He groaned. "Like a breath of fresh air".

"Hmm". I moaned reaching my good hand up and pulling on his hair. I was gone. It was like I was in a
haze, a built up sexual haze.

"Princess". He growled. I didn't even realise he wasn't touching me anymore. I was to busy in my own
head, to horny to notice. Opening my eyes I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip.

Why was he glaring?

Did I do something wrong?

"Damn baby you're not making this any easier". Moving away from me he ran a hand over his face.
"You've no idea". He sighed. I was confused, frustrated and horny. I was annoyed at myself for letting
him do this to me.



"I'm not making it easy?". I huffed. "You can't just get me all horny and then do nothing". I glared. My
body was on fire, to the point where I wanted to touch myself.

His glare matched mine. "You think I don't want to touch you". He snapped. "I can smell you. Do you
know how hard it is for me not to do anything about that?".

He could smell me?

"It's driving me insane". His grit out. "Fuck baby I want nothing more than to taste you but you're not
ready, we're not ready. It's too soon".

"Then you need to stop touching me". Straightening my shoulders I grabbed my cup. "And you need to
go home". Turning away from him I got out of there and headed for my room.

I couldn't be around him just now. I wanted sex, I wanted to come. I wanted to kiss him, I wanted him to
take me.

I wanted Jake Taylor.

Gritting my teeth I slammed my bedroom door shut. He didn't follow me and when I heard the front
door close I knew he had left.
