Chapter 2- Setting Boundaries
Melrose had recently joined the coven, as well. She had instantly become good friends with Emmett, due to his likeable and highly entertaining personality. Sadly, his mate, Rosalie, was overprotective of him and did not approve of Melrose. Sure, Emmett was great to have around, but she had never wanted him, not in that way.
Rosalie had obviously taken a liking to Jenicca. The two were nearly equal in beauty, and in vanity. And of course, Jenicca managed to be the ideal friend for Rosalie, as she was for almost everyone else.
In fact, the two girls were such good friends that Rosalie had somehow led the conversation to Melrose and the problems she had with her.
"She's all over Emmett! Every time I look at her I swear, the two are laughing and talking!" Rosalie almost shrieked.
"Rose, there's no competition. I mean, you have so much more to offer then her. I mean, have you looked in the mirror lately?" Jenicca said, putting her pale hand on Rosalie's shoulder.
"Well, you are right." Rosalie laughed, giving her radiant smile a flash.
"I am right. You're beautiful with an edge. Trust me, I know looks. And people." Jenicca told her, supportive and honest.
"Well, I'll be in the garage if you need me, Melrose. I forgot I have to go fix the car." said Rosalie.
"You didn't mention that before. Why all of a sudden?" Jenicca asked.
Rosalie smirked.
"Emmett likes it when I work on cars."
The next few days were harder than expected for Jenicca- and Jasper. She kept getting that odd feeling, and she knew he did, too. She needed his energy.
Jasper looked at Jenicca, his gray eyes fixed upon her, trying to read her emotions. He felt a mixture of different things; happiness, regret, annoyance, confusion…
She looked at him.
Lust.
His stomach jerked.
