One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf novel Chapter 40

Hailey's POV

If Jaxon and I were human, we would be silly teenagers arguing about just a girl in class. This kiss, his lips on mine and the effect the kiss was having on me would have us sneaking off to my room or even his, while the parents were at work and we would probably find ourselves lost in euphoria and his hand in my pants.

Jaxon would have it easy and all would be forgiven because what's one girl compared to the mountain of problems that we will have to face, problems that were too big to ignore plus his big ass head? His stubbornness was going to be a big problem but I would say he is human and turn the page but we were wolves. I can't hide behind the fact that he is alpha born and his word is gold or bible.

Fighting my wolf, fighting myself, I reluctantly push him away. As much as I want to dive right back in to how we were before the attack, we have so much to talk about.

"Why did you push me away?" Jaxon asks me and I walk to my bed, sitting on it and I pat the side for him to sit.

Jaxon lets out a sigh but walks up to the bed and sits down.

"Jaxon, I want nothing more than to get back to kissing you and being happy again." I say to him.

"Then, don't stop me." Jaxon responds and I roll my eyes.

"That's the thing, we can't. I am hurt Jaxon, by you. You have hurt me and I can't just allow you back in to my life as if you did not walk out of it yourself. You need to stop getting angry at things I have no control over and going back to Azuri every time you and I don't get along. That shit hurt and it was childish of you to do that." I say and he chuckles.

"I did not get back with Azuri." He says to me.

"You know what I mean." I say, getting up and walking away from the bed. Everything in me wants to go back to the kiss, to have his lips on me again and forget about all that he has put me through. It is a little sickening just thinking about it... so I had to create a little distance to get my mind right.

The need to forgive him, to just forget everything because here he was, sitting in my room telling me not to stop. This mate of mine gave me the silent treatment for the duration of the time I was in his home after our argument and even after I left, and all I want to do is have my body in his arms...

"Hailey, I am here, aren't I? Here, because I still want you and I will want you always. I agree, things got out of hand but why should we argue over it? Let us just make up already." Jaxon says to me.

"Hailey, Azuri and I are over and I was upset. I am sorry, I was not thinking straight." He says to me.

"Your head was screwed on so straight, that you were able to use her to try get a reaction out of me. The fact that you gave her all your attention and ignored me, that was you thinking straight. You knew what it would do to me and you went ahead with it..." I say, chuckling as I remember that night.

"I could say the same thing about you and your beta" Jaxon says to me and I laugh.

"Are you serious? Cayden is my beta. He has to stand by me no matter what. Azuri is just a warrior in training... her place in your life is suspect and she should not be playing this close to the future alpha. You can never compare the two. Her place in this pyramid scheme, is way at the bottom compared to Cayden. Cayden is from an important family in my pack, can you say the same about your ex?" I ask. Hating the fact that I was now speaking low of another girl but I need Jaxon to understand how I am close to Cayden compared to his relationship with Azuri.

"She is my friend. We grew up together." He tries to explain but I cut him off.

"You are the future alpha and you have met your mate, asked her to be yours. The level of disrespect to your position now that you are growing up and to me, that needs to stop. Azuri is a big girl; she can handle the shift in places... what she cannot handle is your hot and coldness. Stop messing with us both and if I see you laughing and being too close to her, I will have my father demand your father to kill her." I say but it was really my wolf speaking, which shocks Jaxon as his mouth hangs open.
