Chapter 3 Jasper slowed as they neared her house. He changed form with a couple of deafening cracks and led Claire inside. She was shaking uncontrollably. Claire sat where he sat her and took the cup of tea he produced. She sipped it lightly and then more savagely for it was warm sliding down her throat. It warmed her chills and made her calm. “What happened?” She didn’t seem to notice him standing behind her. He rubbed her shoulders and tightened his grip on her arms. “What happened, Claire?” “He cut his hand on some glass and I almost…I wanted…” she started to sob again. Jasper nodded and sat beside her on the couch. She dropped a spot of tea on her shaking hand and licked it off. The taste was a little bitter but still warmly good; she looked down and saw some of Damien’s blood crusted near where she licked. She frowned, repulsed by the delicious taste of human blood. She cried out in disgust at herself.He scooped her into his lap and whispered, “It’s ok…its only natural.” She glared at his perfect face. Jasper chuckled at Claire’s reaction and rocked her back and forth in his arms. “It is, seriously. Today, I attacked a human.”“That was for a totally different reason!” she spat, “You were jealous, I heard it in every growl!” Claire snorted. He set his jaw and looked around the quaint living room Audrey had made their home. “Sorry,” she dropped her head, “thank you for taking me home.” Jasper, eyebrows raised, looked down at her and sighed. He just wanted to kiss that perfect outline of her mouth. It never used to be this way. He just wanted that back. Why push forth love when he could renew a friendship. Claire stood and put her cup in the sink. She felt like an idiot, telling Jasper these things. Why did her tongue betray her? She let out a cry as she starred at the face of Nikolas in the kitchen window. She gasped and fell against the sink in front of her. “Claire? What are you doing home so early?”She could say the same of him but decided against it. Nikolas cared little for the whole school idea but that gave no reason for him to be lurking around her house. He went occasionally to keep an eye on her for Jasper, but it was effortless. She changed her schedule twice to avoid him; still he persisted. He tapped on the glass for an answer and waved a little. “Come inside Nikolas.” He disappeared and the doorbell rang before she even walked out of the kitchen. Jasper rose to answer it and tried closing it just as quickly. Nikolas kept the door at bay with his foot. “Jasper…let him in.” She was reluctant at telling the world she lost control over her composure.“What did I do to you, J?” Jasper waved the question away and fell on the couch. Nikolas curiously sat beside me and folded his hands over his knees. He was so polite and modest at times. Way beyond his years, he was. Nikolas sat there and said little. “Claire?” She raised her head and looked at Nikolas, “why are you home early? You made such a rush to escape only to come back in less than an hour! I’m not pshyic but did something more than usual happen?” Jasper explained everything from when he dropped her off to her insistent pick up. Nikolas only nodded and said that it was a good thing she had come home. The smell of blood would have irritated her until she willfully gave in or crumpled. Nikolas saw her horrified face and explained more, “It’s not your fault Claire. Were almost near the full moon, ours senses get testy and impatient.”“I’m tired of…” She let her eyes plead them to leave her be. Nikolas was the first to rise but he gave her a fair warning about leaving this house.“Claire, get some rest…” He stopped at the door and glared at Jasper.“Fine I’ll come!” he mumbled obscenities out the door and slammed it behind him.Claire felt no better than Jasper, an animal! She could have nearly killed Damien. She could still smell the scent of him miles away. It lingered as she did household chores. Claire had a good feeling that Jasper and Nikolas were not far away less something else happened. Two of a kind, they were. Jasper pompous and Nikolas reserved. She wished badly that Natalie were there with her. The girl unsettled her but in an odd comforting way. The way she had whisked off at Audrey’s news made her seem more compassionate. Natalie was her friend, her only true friend besides Nikolas. She thought of the two while washing dishes. They seemed matched for one another. Senses down, she barely heard the doorbell ring. “Coming!” She ran for it expecting Jasper once more, but was surprised and horrified to find Damien standing before her. He ran a shaking hand through his dark hair and handed her the rose she had forgotten on the school floor. She hesitantly took it, moving slower than necessary. Across the street, she spied Nikolas and Jasper hiding in the bushes that outlined the house. Both in wolf form she heard soft growls from each about the unexpected visitor. Claire turned her attention away from them so she didn’t startle Damien. He stood on the balls of his feet leaning back and forth. She felt soft fur graze her right leg. Jasper stood on all fours below her and glared at Damien. Damien backed a little but asked Claire if he could have a word with her, alone. Claire nodded and pushed Jasper into the kitchen. “What are you doing?”Making sure lover-boy keeps his distance! Claire sighed, “I’ve no idea what you’re talking about!” Jasper moved his head in the direction of Damien; I see the way he looks at you! When you two accidentally touch, it’s like a disgusting funfair for him! Jasper growled at the visitor and changed shape. He flicked out of the kitchen and returned wearing clothes. Claire spit, “I don’t care!” She opened the kitchen door and sat opposite from Damien. She did care, it wasn’t a good idea to be messing with humans but Jasper wouldn’t know.“You ran so quickly that you forgot this.” He handed her a piece of paper. She took it and read the small print. A rave? What, on earth, was a rave? “I was wondering if you had nothing to do tonight, maybe you’d want…” he cleared his throat with a slight gulp, “maybe you’d like to go with me?” She looked at him more carefully and saw his eyes twinkle. Jasper was right; she had to let this drop. “I would but I really can’t Friday.”He added, “Why not?”She froze for a second to long; she had no answer for him. He rose from his seat, “Never mind, I get it.” He handed her another piece of paper and strode towards the door. She opened it, it was a picture. A girl starred back at her with a friendly smile. It was her! She remembered the expression, but by blood, it was shortly lived.“Damien, wait!” He turned, “I’d love to go.” The smile that lit on his face was miraculously beautiful. He nodded and turned back towards the door. “Damien?”“Yes?” He didn’t bother turn but listened very intently. “Thanks for the rose.” He turned then, looking confused.“I didn’t put that in your locker.” He shook his head once more and left, slowly closing the dark oak door. If he didn’t do it, then who did? Jasper strolled out of the kitchen and jumped on the couch. He lay there in nothing but boxers and looked up at Claire adoringly. Tan skin covered every part of his body she saw. Lean but tight muscles covered his frame, he propped up his feet.
“So a date?” he smiled wickedly, “I’ll be watching Claire.” She could’ve just about cried, Jasper had put the rose in her locker. Why couldn’t he be directly sweet instead of sneaky. She pulled the paper out of her pocket, that she’d found with the rose, and read it.
“Claire, I love you. I love the form you change into, your lightly colored hair when it blows in the wind, I love the smile that curls your lip when you see prey in your midst, and most of all, I love you Claire!I know you want nothing to do with me, but, I persist. I swear when I first saw you, that an angel had dropped from the heavens. Please Claire, give me a chance.”Tears fell freely from her eyes, the thought of Jasper being actually sweet seemed revolting but it was oddly comforting that he wasn’t a total perv. “Jasper?” He raised a hand to stop her and stood. The lump in her throat grew as he walked over.“You’ve made your choice. I will respect that and leave you alone.” He turned to walk out the door.“Jasper?”“Yes, Claire?”“Jasper…Never mind.” He crouched and turned into his true form. Jasper nudged open the front door and scuttled out with his tail between his legs. How could she be so stupid? She moved forward to stop him but thought better of it. “Nikolas!” she screamed. He ran across the street and into the house. “I want the truth!” he tilted his head in confusion, “Change, please.” Claire walked into the kitchen and grabbed him a towel. He changed from a wolf covered in blond-ish fur to a man with blond hair. Nikolas sat on the floor and covered himself with the towel Claire gave him.“What?” “I want to know Jasper’s feeling on me as a mate!”Nikolas felt out of line, it wasn’t his place to give away Jasper’s thoughts. It broke the pack code. Nikolas hesitated with an answer. “Please ask him yourself, it isn’t my place. This is your own business.” Nikolas was no help, always loyal to the end. He stood and wrapped the towel more securely around his waist. “Claire?”“Hmm…”“A fair warning here, Jasper doesn’t take jealously too well. I fear that the human may be in danger.”“His name is Damien.”“Whatever…just keep an eye on him!” Nikolas walked out the back door with the towel and changed into his other form.
