Fire Wolf novel Chapter 13

That night I just toss and turn, I can't stop thinking about Felix. I know I should stay away from him, but I don't know if I can. But what if he is my mate? That means he'll have to learn about my mark at some point, but can I handle telling someone. I've never told a soul, my family are the only ones who know. What am I going to do?

I haven't told Maya about the Blaine incident, so when we go down for breakfast the next morning she questions me as to why I won't sit with her. "Are you mad at me? You never sit with me anymore," she whines. I sigh, "it's not you, I promise. I just like to sit by myself to get my thoughts together." She frowns, but nods. "Okay, I'll see you later!" She skips over to Logan and Blaine, who won't even glance in my direction. I take my usual empty front table and eat alone, thinking about what I should do about this whole mate situation.

Our class is outside today. Felix leads us down a pathway into an open field. I look around and remember running through this field on the way to the creek. Felix turns and faces us. "I have constantly reminded all of you that shifting was not allowed while fighting; until today. I want to see what each of you can do while fighting as your wolf. You will each go into the woods separately, undress, and shift then come back out that way no ones uniform is ruined. Then afterwards you will return to the woods to get dressed. Mitch and Josh you're up first." The rest of us sit to the side as the 2 boys walk into the woods in different areas. They return, one of them is a solid white wolf with black tips of the ears, and golden eyes, and the other is a brown wolf with green eyes. They begin fighting, but I don't pay much attention. The fight doesn't last long.

We begin a routine of calling 2 people up, they shift, fight, then shift back. I lean back against the tree, thinking, when I hear my name called. "Amber and Maverick." I stand and walk to the opposite end of the woods from Maverick. I go far enough so I know no one can see me, and strip down and put my clothes behind a tree. I shift into the midnight black wolf; without the flames of course.

I walk out of the woods, and I hear gasps. I was expecting that though, I am the size of an Alpha wolf, sometimes bigger depending on the alpha. I see Felix look at me in shock, but shakes his head and looks back at his notes, and writes something down. I look to see a solid gray wolf with blue eyes approaching me. He looks like a chew toy compared to me; he also looks cute and adorable compared to me. I'm about 5 feet taller than he is, and I look down at him and snarl. He looks up and growls, but slowly backs away. I lean down to his level and snap at him, and he cowers away. We circle one another for a little while, when he leaps at me and bites my leg. I yelp and wrap my mouth around his neck, and pick him up. He wiggles and yelps, but there's nothing he can do to get outta my grip. He whines and submits, and I put him down. I take one look at Felix, who still has a shocked expression but is writing on his notes, and turn and walk back into the woods. I shift back, and look for my clothes. I get to the tree I thought I put them under, but there's not there.

Where are my clothes??

I curl up and lay where I was standing, when I hear some entering the woods. My head perks up.

"Amber? I'm leaving your robe on this tree branch. Come get it when I'm out of the woods." Felix said. I walk out anyway, still in wolf form, and grab the red, fluffy robe between my teeth as he's walking out. I go back to my little area and shift back and wrap the robe around myself, and tying the belt tightly so it stays closed. I walk out of the woods to hear Felix talking to the group.
