Chapter 3: Meeting the Parents

He pulled her in close. She realized how short she was compared to him. He was about 6 '4 and she was only 5'4.

"Koga what are you doing?" She said not liking this at all.

"I love you more than the oceans." He said.

"That's no reason to pull me in and hug me!"

"How about a kiss?" He kissed her. She drew back from him.

"I hate to tell you this but, I don't like that kind-of stuff unless I know and trust a guy."

"Oh come on, you don't trust me?" He said smiling.

"Oh yes, I trust some wolf demon who cannot control his desire."

"I think I'm controlling it pretty well if I had my way you would be..."

"Just stop! I don't want to know what you'd do to me or what you are going to do to me. Your a demon, I'm a human, it just does not work out!"

"I can fix that." He smiled showing his fangs. He began to walk closer to her. His eyebrows were arching higher and higher.

"No Koga, don't please don't." She knew she should have kept her mouth shut.

"Okay fine, I won't make you a wolf demon unless you make me mad."

"Well, that's easy to do. Sorry!" She said putting her hand over her mouth.

"Well, this should be interesting to watch you try not to speak your mind." He laughed.

"Do you think its funny taking me away from my friends and family?"

"You know you will have it better here! Some of your friends are here."

"They are?" She said shocked.

"Yes, I didn't kill all of them. I'll let you see them later."

"Still why do you love me?"

"For a lot of reasons, don't doubt my love for you."

"Whatever." She sat and sat down. She was very angry that he did something like this.

"So, have you had fun with all the female wolf demons?" He asked sitting right next to her.

"They are all very nice." She said trying to sound like she meant it.

"Oh no." Koga said.

"What?" Kailey asked wondering.

"Quick get behind that tree and do not show yourself." He grabbed her arm and pulled her behind a tree. Then, two other wolf demons appeared. Kailey carefully peeked from behind the tree.

"Koga, you went against our code!" His father said loudly.

"What did I do?" Koga asked standing up.

"You are going to make a human your mate!" His mother said.

"So what, I love her!" He said. Love... me? Kailey thought in shock.

"Love a what? You love a worthless human girl? My grandchildren will be worthless half-breeds!" He was getting really mad. Kailey felt like her soul was being ripped out. Worthless, she thought.

"You shut up old man, I love her no matter what, and she is strong."

"Son, you have disgraced me. What ever happened to my human killer?"

"That old me is in the past."

"I cannot believe you, you with a worthless human! I can't wait to meet her at dinner!" They left. Koga shook his head. Kailey just watched and felt broken. Is that all I am to anyone? Worthless? What is my purpose in living?

"Hey, just ignore them." Koga said.

"Oh yes, I'll ignore people who call me worthless." Kailey said angrily.

"It will be fine, let's go back." He picked her up and put her over his shoulder and dropped her off at the female wolf demon's cave.

"See you later babe!" He called and left.

"Hey, did you have fun?" Caron asked.

"Yeah, it was real fun." She said forcing a smile.

"Well, we need to make dinner, want to help?" Amyme said.

"Sure, I'll help." The cut up fruits, vegetables, meat, all kinds of stuff. By the time they were done, it was time to give the people their food.

"Are you ready to give it out?" Midori asked.

"Sure." Kailey said afraid of going to dinner.

"Hey, why don't we take care of this and you just go find Koga and sit by him?" Caron said.

"Wait, put on this!" Amyme said entering with a long black dress made of silk.

"Oh, I could never wear that."

"Come on, it's a gift from all of us, please put it on." Midori said. She quickly slipped it on. She looked lovely.

"Okay, go find Koga!" Gothika said.

"Okay." She walked in the back way. She saw Koga motioning for her over there and so she came and sat over there. His parents were watching her every move.

"Wow you look so beautiful." He whispered into her ear.

"I would like to propose a toast to my new mate, Kailey!" They all raised their glasses except Koga's parents. They ate the meal in silence then,

"Koga, I can't take it anymore! Why are you going to marry this worthless human?" He picked her up by her new dress. His eyes opened wide.

"You gave her one of her fangs and you marked her! You fool! Girl, why do you want to marry him? He is not even your type!" Kailey was getting mad and she had intense sadness coursing through her. Then, it turned to rage. Her eyes pulsed.

"I did not agree! I love another, not Koga and stop saying I'm worthless." Her eyes pulsed and the power she never knew she had flung him back and a force field went around her.

"I never said I would marry him. I did not want my friends to die, so I said yes. I would rather be back with my own life then here! Koga, I heard what you said to all your friends earlier, that explains why they were so nice to me, it was an act, you people don't like me, so good-bye!"

She took off running. Tears flew from her eyes as she ran. She ran as fast as she could. She ran for about 15 min. and stopped at a lake and looked at herself. She punched the water.

"I hate it, I hate me!"

Meanwhile at the den...

Koga sat in shock and stood up.

"Good, she left, why don't you marry a nice demon?"

"You took away the only thing I ever loved and made me happy." Koga's eyes watered. He ran off. He whiffed the air and followed her scent. He saw her crying. She lay down and clutched her arm. Koga walked up to her. She saw him and rolled over.

"Ha!" She smiled and let her hand up. Her arm was bleeding and their was a bloody arrow next to her.

"Is your father happy now?" She cried some more. Koga looked at her and his eyes watered.

"Kailey don't listen to him. I love you."

"No you don't, you are a liar!" She grabbed her arm. He pulled her in close.

"If I didn't why would you still be here?" He held her tight. "I love you so much, Kailey." He rubbed his head against hers. She smiled.

"Really?" She put her hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, really." She was weak from her blood loss. She fell asleep. He kissed her forehead and took her back to his private cave. His parents were there, waiting. He laid her on his bed and wrapped up her arm, kissed her forehead, and covered her up.

"Koga, come here." His father said. Koga sat down by his parents.

"Koga, I'm sorry, it is just I have not seen a wolf demon fall in love with a human for so long and I…"

"It's fine."

"Ok, I will like her as long as you do. She isn't bad for a human compared to the others. Something is different about her. A weird power."

"I know." Said Koga.

"You like her mom?" Said Koga.

"Yes, I liked her to begin with." She smiled.

"Do you still care if your grandchildren will be half-demons?"

"No son, not really." He was lying but, Koga didn't know that.

"Okay son well, bye!" They both left. Kailey slowly opened her eyes.

"Hey babe you feel okay?" He came and sat by her.

"No." She said looking at her arm all wrapped up.

"I told you everything will be okay, I promise."

"I don't want your promises for I know they aren't true." She said bitterly.

"What do you mean?"

"You want me for my power and nothing more, you jerk!"

"You really need to be quiet before I make you do something you don't want to do."

"I'm sorry, I'm just so..."

"It's okay, just trust me and everything will be okay. Do you trust me?" Should I trust him? She thought.

"Ok Koga, I trust you."
