Chapter 18

Rosabella 's P.o.v

 I can't believe everything that just happened. Finn being upset with me and just leaving me with the werewolves. Why am I with them? After all these warnings? I didn't listen.

"I can't help noticing that you're a little jumpy around me." I watch as he runs his fingers through his hair.

"It's just the things that you do." I look at the ground, for some reason I cannot face him.

The butterflies fly in my stomach as I feel his hand on my chin.

"Some of the things that the vampire said was correct, we do kill, but I have no choice. The wolf inside me has a mind of his own, and he craves blood, and I cannot deny him of this."

Am I safe? If he has no control over this, how will he not hurt me?

"And what if your wolf craves my blood?"

The smile which comes on his face was quite adorable, and then I hear the laughter.

"No, he's in love too."

I feel his hand gently stroke my face, and his touch was making my stomach turn. I crave his attention and want his hands on me, but also felt bad because I was being unfaithful to Finn and we were not even technically dating or anything.

"I will never hurt you Rosie."

All I could do at this moment was nod. Finn was my safety net, and I could only imagine the hurt feelings he had watching me kiss Arjun.

My eyes look around his room. And I must admit I was surprised by how ordinary it appeared.

He seems to like to color black, as he had black currants and a black bedspread. My eyes take notice of the guitar next to his bed and the many shelves full of CDs.

"You like music."

He smiles and walks towards a CD shelf and grabs one of my albums. I can recognize the cover just by glance.

"And you're in a band."

I feel the smile taking over my face. "I guess a girl and a wolf can have something in common."

He laughs.

"Actually, all this reminds me I can't stay very long. I do have practice today."

"I understand."

He moves towards me, which makes my heart beat faster. I feel his hands wrap around my waist.

He brings his face closer to mine, and I feel his breath on my lips.

"Is this a close practice?"

I can't imagine what the band would think if I show up with another random boy.

"Technically."

"Well, I learned technically is definitely not a yes."
