some sort of weakness he had.
    "That's when you said you couldn't control it, that's when you bit me, your eyes changed colour to black just before you did it, but when you pulled back they were green again, I thought I imagined it" I said shaking my head.
    He nodded "That was my wolf, he took over, he claimed you" he said.
    I pulled back "So your wolf claimed me? That means YOU don't want me?" I asked frowning.
    He gasped and shook his head fiercely "Of course I want you! My wolf is part of me, but it's the dominant part that comes out when something needs to happen, it's not some other person that's inside me, I AM my wolf, that was just how I explained it, I should have said I claimed you, but it was my wolf instincts that made me sink my teeth into your skin" he explained. "I don't know how this happened, you're human, I shouldn't have been able to claim you" he said looking at confused again.
    "Shifter's don't claim humans?" I asked frowning confused.
    He shook his head "Never" he said positively. Ok this is just getting weirder and weirder!
    "Never?" I asked watching his face.
    He shook his head again, "Never, I didn't even think it was possible, your body's different to mine, your gene's are different, I shouldn't be able to claim you, I can only claim another shifter, you sure your not?" he asked looking at me hopefully.
    I laughed "I think I'd remember something like that Jayden" I said sarcastically making him laugh.
    "Hey, I had to check!" he said innocently.
    "Ok so what do we do about this then? How do we get un-mated?" I asked.
    He looked at me horrified, "What? You can't get un-mated, you're mine now, I'm yours, I'll never want anyone else, if you were a shifter you'd feel the same about me, but obviously you don't, which I guess is a big problem for me" he said looking at me sadly.
    I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him close to me, "I'm sorry, I have a boyfriend" I said quietly, wishing I didn't.
    "You know, you haven't once told me that you're in love with him, you've just said you had a boyfriend, not that you loved him or that you didn't actually want me" he said pulling back looking at me hopefully. Oh god I didn't love Trey but that had nothing to do with it, I needed to protect my Mom and now I needed to protect Jayden, Trey would go crazy if he found out any of this.
    But could I tell Jayden I didn't want him? I only met him a couple of hours ago but I could feel the bond that he was talking about, I trusted him, I wanted him. But I couldn't have him, I needed to get this sorted and go back home and wait for Trey to come back, hopefully he wouldn't notice the huge bite mark I have on my neck. Wow ok that's gonna be hard, but I guess he doesn't actually like to look at me too closely because of how I look so maybe I could get away with it if it faded soon.
    "I'm in love with him Jayden" I lied watching his face fall, he looked so sad my heart started to break. Oh god I can't do this!
    His eyes flashed to black again and he shook his head fiercely, "You can't you're mine, we're mated, you need to be with me" he growled.
    "I'm sorry, I didn't choose this, you forced this on me, I can't be with a shifter Jayden, I love my boyfriend, we've been together a long time" I said.
    He closed his eyes taking a couple of deep breaths, when he opened them they were the beautiful green again, "How long?" he asked taking my hand.

    I smiled sadly "Four years" I said trying not to grimace.
    He nodded "That's a long time, so I guess I don't know anything about you" he said faking a smile.
    "I guess not" I said squeezing his hand gently.
    "Well how old are you?" he asked curiously.
    "I just turned seventeen three weeks ago, you?" I said looking at his beautiful face feeling myself being drawn to him.
    "I turned twenty today" he said.
    I gasped, "It's your birthday? Wait! Was that your party we were at?" I asked shocked, he nodded smiling. "Oh, sorry I didn't realise, well happy birthday" I said frowning, ok wow I so
