Hello all! Thanks sooooo much to my generous reviewers! You all rock! This, as well as my other stories, are now on Jacobblack-n-pack so go check em out! There are cool character pics and stuff!

Brady POV

I had asked Ryan out knowing full well what the repercussions of my actions would be. To say that Jake was pissed was the understatement of the century. But hey I thought Ryan was a pretty kick ass woman and I wanted to see if maybe there would be some sort of spark.

Not to mention that maybe it would give my Alpha a swift kick in the ass to tell her how he feels before someone else steals her out from under his nose.

I had an amazing time with her on our pseudo date and it was nice to know that I had a woman friend who I wasn't sexually attracted to.

Now don't get me wrong, Ryan is HOT. Her curvy body, gorgeous eyes and massive amounts of curly blonde hair would do it for me any day of the week. But this was Ryan we were talking about, she was like another mother figure to the pack. She saw me as her kid and I saw her as my momma, not my suga momma either. It would just be way too weird.

Not to mention that everyone in LaPush knew that our Alpha had a little thing for miss Ryan. Too bad Jake couldn't even realize it for himself, and Ryan was too dense to notice it either…idiots.

When I picked her up I could hear Jake in the woods around her house. What a fucking bum. If he weren't my Alpha I would seriously kick his ass. I could see through the trees as he followed and then came to a screeching halt at the boarder line.

Jeeze Jake, why don't you play the stalker card a little more, I don't think you are creepy enough.

He must have waited at the border because he followed my truck, again, as I drove her home.

When we got back onto her porch we were both soaking wet and laughing. I heard a growl come from the woods and I turned to see Jake trying to hide in the dense forest. I smirked at him before turning back to Ryan and giving her a chaste kiss on the lips. I heard the snarl from the woods and smirked to myself as I made my way back to my truck.

Take that almighty Alpha.

Maybe he would finally wake up and smell the god damn hot coffee before he turned into a total stalker.

I heard another growl come from the woods.

Or maybe not.

JPOV

After the bonfire I phased and ran home, barely making it through the door before snatching up my bottle of jack off the counter.

What the hell was wrong with me?

I shouldn't give a shit if Ryan went out on a date. I shouldn't care that it was with Brady, my pack mate. I shouldn't get angry at the thought of him holding her hand at the bonfire. But I was.

I was furious.

The wolf inside me clawed at my ribcage chanting 'mine' in my head over and over again, and for the first time in almost 18 years I had trouble controlling my phasing. My body shook as I thought about Brady's hands on her. I let out a snarl and put the bottle back to my lips, taking gulps that would knock out a regular human.

Fuck it burned so good.

I continued to down the bottle until the alcohol made its self known, effectively knocking me out.

I woke up the next day only a little hungover, perks of being a werewolf, and phased outside, planning on patrolling until tonight. The day dragged on and on and finally once the sun started to set I made my way over.

I ran through the woods until I came to the familiar house. I could hear Ryan getting ready inside and let out a little growl as Brady pulled up in his truck. The kid got out and shot me a glare. I watched as Ryan came out of the house in a white sundress and my heart sped up a little. She looked gorgeous.

I followed them to the border like the creep that I was and then ran patrol waiting for them to come back.

God I was pathetic.

It seemed like I paced circles for hours waiting for them to return. What the fuck was I doing? Hiding in the woods like a total stalker, if Ryan ever found out she would cut my balls off.

I watched as Brady's truck pulled up in the downpour, I didn't care that it was raining to the point my fur was sticking to me. Brady helped Ryan out of the truck and held his jacket over her head as they ran to the porch. She was soaking wet by the time they made it and they were both laughing. I let out a little growl as her eyes lit up from her laughter.

I should be the one that makes her laugh, not fucking Brady.

The little fucker turned and glared at me before shooting me a shit-eating smirk. My blood boiled as he leaned down and kissed Ryan. I started trembling in my wolf form as a snarl ripped its way out of my chest.

Mine.

He said goodbye and shot me a smirk as he made his way to his truck.

That little fuck.

I ran around to the back porch, phased, and slipped my shorts on. I slid open the sliding back door that Ryan always forgot to lock and made my way into the kitchen ready to give her the third degree. Ready to tell her why Brady wasn't good for her, and why she should choose me instead. I wanted to demand to know why she agreed to go out with him when we had something so indescribable in between us.

Well of course she agreed you idiot! You never fucking told her you pansy ass bitch. What did you just think someone as gorgeous as her was just going to stay single forever?

I pleasantly told my inner dialogue to fuck off as I stood there dripping water all over her kitchen floor. I heard her come into the room and she screamed as she turned on the light and saw me.

Whatever notion I had thought of about reprimanding her about her date, or begging to choose me instead went flying out the window as I took in sight of her body.

My gaze raked across her delectable body. Her dress was clinging to her body like a second skin, completely see through from the rain. I growled when I saw her perky nipples straining through the translucent fabric. Any coherent thought went flying out of my brain as all my blood rushed below the waist. I felt my wolf clawing, demanding to make her mine.

Her eyes widened as I stalked towards her like a predator to its prey.

"Jacob what are you-" I cut her off as I grabbed the back of her head and crashed my lips to hers. I moaned into her mouth at the taste of her soft lips and when she gasped I took the opportunity to sneak my tongue into her mouth, the movements easily coming back to me.

God it had been so long, too long, since my body responded like this to a woman.

At first she fought against me, her tiny hands beating on my chest as she struggled to get out of my grasp. No doubt she was still pissed at me.

But that moment, that one moment when she finally gave in and started kissing back, well there was nothing in my life to compare to the euphoria I felt in that moment…not even imprinting.

I growled as her hands came up to thread themselves through my hair as her tongue battled with mine for dominance. My hands made their way from the back of her neck down past her shoulders and breasts to rest on her hips, pulling them forcefully against mine. We both moaned as she pressed herself against my hard on.

Without warning I grabbed her by the hips and placed her on the kitchen counter, putting us more at the same height. She opened up her legs allowing me to step between them before wrapping them around my waist, causing my dick to line up perfectly with her hot core.

"Fuck, you smell so good Ry."

My mind went crazy as I could feel her heat through the fabric of her panties and my shorts and I ground myself into her causing her to gasp and throw her head back. I did it again reveling at the sensations that shot through my body. If I didn't get control of myself this would be over before it could even begin.

I continued to grind myself into her heat while one of my hands trailed from her hip past her stomach to her dress covered breast.

I found myself shaking, not out of the need to phase, but rather from nerves. It had been a long time since I did this and I felt like an inexperienced high school kid again as my hand groped her breast. I could feel her hard nipple and I caught her moan in my mouth as I pinched it.

I picked up my pace against her, not giving a shit that we were both fully clothed and dry humping each other like a bunch of freshman at a high school dance, or the fact that I was ridiculously close to letting one go in my shorts.

She wrenched her lips away from mind and grinded herself onto my body as her nails scratched down my naked back. I dove in, placing opened mouth kissing and little love bites on any part of open skin I could find.

"Fuck Jake. I'm so close."

Her breathing was picking up and I felt myself getting closer to my release. I quickly pulled her dress down, exposing one of her perfect flushed breasts before engulfing her nipple in my mouth and moaning.

"Oh Fuck!"

Her head was thrown back as she shamelessly grinded herself onto me. I was so close. So close to getting a release that my body so desperately needed.

My release came quickly when her hand reached in between us and grabbed me through my shorts. I cried out into her chest and bit down on her nipple causing her to shriek and fall over the edge with me. I jerked my hips as I rode out my orgasm and my hand found her core, lightly stroking over her panties to ensure hers was drawn out as well.

I leaned my head on her shoulder as we both tried to regain control of our bodies. I can't believe we just did THAT…on her kitchen counter nonetheless.

Then I remembered why I came storming into her kitchen in the first place. She had been on a date with Brady, and she had let him kiss her.

I took a step back as I started trembling, thinking of Brady's hands on her the way mine had just been. She looked up at me confused.

"What's wrong?"

"How was your date?" I sneered at her. Fire flashed through her eyes and she straightened her shoulders.

"I cant believe after, after THAT…that you are going to ask me about my date. What the fuck is wrong with you Jake? I wouldn't even have even classified Brady and my night as a date."

"Well you certainly weren't thinking that when you let him kiss you."

"I have no idea why he…whoa whoa whoa, how did you know he kissed me?" Recognition flittered across her face and she went from confused to absolutely furious.

"You were spying on me!" It came out more as a yelled statement rather than a question. She readjusted her dress, covering herself, jumped down from the counter and stalked her way over to me poking me in the chest with her finger.

"What right do you have to do that!"

Each word was accompanied with another poke as she backed me up into a wall and my eyes widened.

"You have some god damn nerve Jacob Black. I have been interested in you for months and you do nothing about it but when I go out with another guy, another guy FRIEND, you follow me and spy on me from the woods!" She ran her hand through her hair frustrated.

"And then, you break into my house! Scare the living shit out of me and then proceed to dry hump me in my own kitchen before turning all crazy Jake on me and ridiculing me about my night out with a friend and one friendly kiss!" She glared at me and it actually scared me a bit.

"You are ridiculous! Just…absolutely ridiculous! I'm leaving!" She turned and walked a few paces before turning back to me.

"No no no you know what? This is MY house. You leave. Come talk to me when you have sorted through your emotions enough to actually act like a normal human being. I can't handle this Jekyll and Hyde shit anymore."

She turned away from me and stormed up the stairs. I winced when I heard her door slam shut and sighed as I ran a hand through my hair.

Shit. I had fucked up…big time.

Ryan, of course, was one hundred percent right. I had been going through emotions like underwear recently…and well that was a figure of speech because I didn't really wear underwear.

That woman just made my mind crazy. I never knew what to feel around her and that scared the shit out of me. And how do I deal with my crazy emotions? Well I do the stupidest thing imaginable and take it out on her. God I am an idiot.

I heard muffled thuds coming from upstairs and the occasional grunt. What the hell was she doing now?

I silently made my way up the stairs and was shocked to see Ryan beating the living shit out of a punching bag in the corner of her room. She had changed into shorts and a tshirt and was rotating between punching and kicking the bag.

Each punch was accompanied by a different word; asshole, jackass, and idiot were the ones that were found to be repeated.

She had already developed a thin layer of sweat and I watched as her muscles flexed every time she landed another punch.

For some reason her beating the shit out of that bag was turning me on…Jeeze get your mind out of the gutter you horny asshole…talk about the worst time for you to get a boner, you are, literally, in the doghouse.

I walked up to her and placed my hand on her shoulder causing her to turn and throw a left hook right at my face. Luckily my wolf speed decided to kick in and I caught her fist right before it came in contact with my face. Now don't get me wrong, I think I deserved a good shot to the face, but it would hurt her more than me and I didn't need something else for her to hold against me.

My catching of her fist just succeeded on pissing her off more as she tried to land as many punches as she could against me. She struggled even more as I pulled her to me, wrapping my arms around her and encasing her in an all out body hug, rendering her immobile. I squeezed her tight and rubbed her lower back as she tried in vain to escape my embrace. I held her tighter and placed my lips next to her ear.

"I'm so sorry Ry. I'm such a fucking idiot."

Her struggling stopped as she sagged into me.

"I can't take this shit Jacob. You can't just yank me around like that. Kissing me one minute and yelling at me the next. It's not fair."

"You're right it's not. I'm sorry that I put you through that I just- you stir up feelings in me that have been dormant for close to a decade and I don't know what to do with them. You completely rattle my brain Ryan, and in all honestly it scares the hell out of me. It scares me how angry I got when I thought about Brady kissing you, his hands on you like mine were. I wanted to rip his fucking head off."

She sighed and I let her pull back from my embrace a little allowing her to look up at me. Once again the sight of her sapphire eyes made my breath catch in my throat. She chuckled a little at me.

"Jacob, Brady and I are friends, nothing more. As for that kiss it was completely out of left field. I think that maybe he was trying to provoke you. I mean he did look at the woods before hand, and since you were stalking me he probably knew you were there."

She was right, that little shit had given me the most shit eating grin right before he kissed her. What a little asshole.

"I wouldn't call it stalking, more like obsessively shadowing." She smiled a little at my joke.

"Is it going to be like this all the time Jake? Because I can't take being pulled around like some sort of rag doll while you sort out your emotions. I don't know about you, but what happened in the kitchen actually meant something to me."

She blushed and looked down. I was having none of that, I hooked my finger under her chin and made her meet my gaze.

"And you think it didn't mean anything to me? Listen Ry, I am damaged goods and I'm not saying that this is going to be all sunshine and roses because its not. I have been really messed up for the past ten years and you are causing me to feel things I thought were extinct from my body and mind. For once I don't know what to do with my emotions. I am so used to just merely going through life the same repetitive process day in and day out, just trying to numb the pain. But you were a curveball I never expected to be thrown and I am just trying to find the right way to bat it out of the park."

She quirked an eyebrow at me.

"Are you saying you want to score with me Jacob?"

My mouth dropped open before laughing. She shook her head and leaned it against my chest.

"I never really was good with words."

"Jacob I understand what you are saying, but what just happened back there, it can't happen again. I've been through enough, my heart can't take that kind of beating."

"I know Ryan and I am trying, I really am. You make me feel things I never thought I'd feel again and I'm scared I'm going to fuck it up."

"Jacob no one is perfect, and I'm certainly not asking you to be, I'm just asking that you let me know what is going on with you okay?"

Oh shit. That means telling Ryan about her. No, no, there was no way I could open that can of worms just yet.

"I'll try my best. I was never really the emotional type."

She chuckled against my chest and shook her head.

"What ever you say mister manly man. So what exactly are we going to do with this?"

"I want to do this Ry. As much as I thoroughly enjoyed what went on in the kitchen I want to slow it down a bit and take it at a normal pace. Can I take you out on a date?"

She blushed and nodded her head.

"Of course you can Jacob. Are you sure you are okay with Patrick and everything? You need to understand that he is my number one priority in life and nothing comes before he does. Even if it happens to be a certain sexy Alpha werewolf."

Haha, Ryan thinks I'm sexy!

"Ryan of course I know that Pat comes first. I would never put myself between you two. Speaking of which, where is the little monster?"

"He is staying at Sue's for the night."

"Mmm," I brushed my nose across the creamy expanse of her neck, inhaling her delicious scent. "So when should I take you on our date?" She giggled a little before answering.

"Man I haven't been asked out in almost eight years and now within the course of 48 hours I get asked out twice. What am I, some sort of werewolf magnet?"

I let out a playful growl and nipped her skin with my teeth.

"You are my werewolf magnet. No one else's."

"Ooo I don't know if I can be with such a possessive guy Jacob."

She kidded with me before reaching up and placing a kiss on the underside of my jaw. I moaned and pressed my hips into her, and that's when I felt it, the wet spot on the inside of my jeans from earlier.

"Shit. Um well this is really embarrassing, but you don't happen to have any like extra large shorts do you? I kind of need a change."

She looked confused for a minute before understanding flashed across her face and she blushed down to the roots of her hair.

"Um yea I think one of the guys left some extras here incase they phased with theirs on."

She rummaged around through her drawers before pulling out a pair of long athletic shorts and handing them to me.

"Um you can change and uh…clean up in the bathroom."

I laughed and placed a kiss on the top of her head before I headed towards the bathroom. After cleaning up my junk and changing shorts I made my way back into her room. She had changed into a pair of sleep shorts and a tank top.

"Jacob I know you said that you wanted to do this normally but would you mind staying the night? It's weird having the house to myself."

"Of course. Where do you want me to sleep?"

"Um, would you mind sleeping with me? Oh god I didn't mean it like that…well its just…I mean…"

She smacked me on the arm as I laughed at her before crawling into bed next to her. I wrapped my arms around her waste and placed a kiss on her shoulder before whispering goodnight.

And once again that feeling of wholeness swept through me as I drifted off to sleep.
