Her Mate, The School's Player novel Chapter 3

"You are not wearing that", he says. If my brother doesn't like it, then I must look good. "Guys will be all over you".

"That's the point".

"No, now change".

"I'm wearing this, now come on, we're going to be late".

"Mom, tell her she's not wearing this". My mom comes out. They were leaving in a few minutes.

"Oh honey, you look beautiful", she says.

"Thanks, you do too", I say, admiring her dress. She smiles.

"Now, I've already talked to your brother about this. If you're going to be with some guy tonight I want you to be safe and-" she says.

"I will Mom", I interrupt. I am not going to be talking about sex with my Mom and I'm not even going to be sleeping with any guy tonight anyway, I don't sleep around. She gives me a hug and I kiss my Dad on the cheek.

"Tell Damian I said happy birthday", Dad says. Was Dad talking to me because Devon didn't answer. I get into Devon's car with him.

"That was awkward", I say.

"Tell me about it, she gave me the full talk", he says. I laugh. That must have been embarrassing and very awkward. "If I see any guy, I will go over there and punch him".

"I'm not going to be with a guy, just Hannah and Rachel".

"Alright". He pulls into Damian's driveway. His house was huge! I've never seen it before, no wonder Devon spends most of his time here, Damian must be so rich! Well my family is rich too. The whole place was packed with people, well he is the most popular guy at school. I get out and give Devon a hug. "I will have my eyes on you". I laugh.

"I know you will". He chuckles and kisses my cheek.

"Have fun".

"You too", I say. I walk over to Rachel and Hannah. "Hey".

"You look amazing", they both say.

"As do you both". We hug and go inside. A few guys check me out as we past them. I saw Dean and Ellen making out on a couch which made my heart ache and I felt a bit of jealously coming on.

"Forget about them, now let's find you someone", Hannah says. I give her a weak smile and tear my gaze from Ellen and Dean.

"I found you a guy", Rachel says. She points to Damian who was checking me out too.

"No thanks", I lie. If only they knew I did want him. Yesterday I hated him and how come today my feelings for him have totally changed? "What are you guys keeping from me?"

"We're not keeping anything from you", Hannah lies, then coughs.

"Hannah I know when you're lying. My parents and brother are keeping something from me too, do you all not trust me enough to know?" I was really hurt that my best friends were keeping something from me and especially my family.

"You know we trust you and we wish we could tell you but we can't", Rachel says.

"Who is ordering you not to say anything?" I ask.

"We can't tell you", Hannah says.

"Okay at least tell me if the thing you're keeping from me is about me?"

"Okay yes it's about you", Rachel sighs.

"It was my fault", Damian says. Hannah and Rachel were afraid of Damian? They looked afraid of something behind me and Damian was behind me. I look down at our hands. He was still holding them. I pull back and the tingling stopped.

"My Dad told me to say Happy Birthday to you", I say.

"Are you going to say happy birthday too?"

"Happy birthday". He chuckles. "So why are you here and not with your sluts".

"You jealous of them?" he smirks.

"No", I blush.

"You look beautiful". He strokes my cheek which makes me blush more. Does he feel this way too?

"Damian, get your ass over here now", Devon yells. Damian chuckles.

"I hope to see you later", he smirks, then winks before walking back over to Devon. Rachel and Hannah walk back over to me.

"Why did you two leave?"

"We um, never mind", Rachel sighs.

Damian's POV:

A few minutes earlier....

I saw Paul putting his hands on my mate's waist. My wolf growls. Devon looks at Paul and storms over to them. I storm over to them too and pull Paul off her.
