Chapter 2

Neo felt a strange tugging in her chest as soon as her sisters and their dates were out of sight. She rubbed her chest and tried sipping on some water to calm down and make the feeling go away.

She decided on watching a movie before bed to pass time.

One hour later and she still had that strange feeling of something being clenched inside of her. She thought it best to turn in for the night. But she was out of luck it seemed because she couldn't get herself to calm down or for that tug to go away. She took some pain medicine. Maybe she pulled a muscle while cleaning the house or exercising.

Neo lay on her bed while staring at the ceiling. She couldn't relax or close her eyes. For some reason her sister's date kept popping in her mind. His face, such strong features, the jaw line, his dark lips, his eyes...those beautiful brown eyes. She didn't think she had ever met a guy with more expressive eyes.

He was built like a tree though. Like a really big tree with corded muscles and veins visible plainly. He had to be nearly seven feet!

He too had been curious when he met her and then it quickly turned to surprise or shocked amazement and then something else she couldn't quite place. But she remembered when their hands touched; the spark, the feel of calloused skin which seemed to burn her in spite of the cool temperature around them.

Neo shook her head. That guy was obviously older and looking to date older and really attractive girls like her sister, Carol. She didn't hold a candle to her. Carol was everything a guy could ever want. She was very attractive, she did well as a model, could cook decently when she tried. She was perfect.

Neo? Not so much. She was a mix of her parents and grandparents. She got her father's nose, her mom's wide eyes and amber colour from her maternal grandmother and dark brown hair from her grandpa, dad's side and she wasn't too short or very tall. She considered herself very mediocre when she saw how attractive her family was.

Mia was very tom boyish yet maintained that feminine quality about her which had always attracted attention. She had the same pretty brown eyes that Carol and she shared with their mother. They were a year apart but quite different in their ways. Since Neona was the youngest she had always felt kind of left out and a little deprived since their mom had left them when she was really young but the other two girls had more time with her.

Mia always tried to make up for the loss but there was only so much she could do since she was also young and had school, college and now her job to concentrate on but Neo couldn't complain. Her father and sisters did try to make her feel special and cherished.

Neo heard the front door open and thought her father was home. She looked at the clock and saw it was 10:42 pm. He was later than usual. He tried his best to make it home for dinner. However, lately he had been missing dinner time because he knew that his two daughters would be out and the one who was at home, Neo, would be sleeping or reading.

She waited a while trying to decide whether to go greet him or try and sleep but before she could make that decision, she heard her sister, Carol's voice.

She seemed upset. Neo's brows' furrowed. What could have upset her? She had seemed pretty enthused.

She tried to eavesdrop but all she heard were hushed, agitated whispers.


Jacob knew the date he had been kind of looking forward to was going to be a disaster. The eyes that he looked into were brown and boring not the enchanting amber ones. Candy was too tall and too scantily dressed and extremely made up. He liked the way his Neona had dressed. She was wearing jeans and a t-shirt and just some cute socks. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail and she seemed relaxed. There wasn't a trace of make up on her face and she was beautiful. Not caked up and artificial.

Embry and Mia decided to enjoy themselves in spite of the situation. Time was precious for the wolves and their mates. With patrolling and their work, they didn't have quite as much time as they wanted with their mates.

Mia had been anxious and upset at first but Embry had managed to calm her with his sweet kisses and calm touch and sweet nothings he whispered in her ears. She was soon blushing and gigging and enjoying herself.

Candy did everything right. Everything that Jacob would have expected from a hot date pre imprinting. She sat really close to him, tried touching him in places that would heat things up and she sent him flirty glances all along, going as far as to suck on her food in an erotic manner in the hopes of getting Jacob riled up but he remained stoic and it pissed her off, not that Jacob gave two shits about it.

He was too enthralled in the thoughts of the sweet girl who was his world now. He sighed. How he wished she was the one with him right then. The date would have been perfect. He knew that Mia was closer to her than Candy due to the wolf link and Embry's thoughts. Everyone would have been happy and enjoying themselves.

All in all, Embry was the only one who was completely satisfied with the date. Carol was pissed, Mia gave Jacob the occasional stink eye and Jacob was too lost in his thoughts to actually care what was going on.

The ride home wasn't any better. Jake had taken to driving and Mia had pulled Carol to the backseat before she could plant her ass in the passenger seat. Embry sulked about riding shotgun for probably the first time ever.
