Chapter 356
He paused and turned to look at me , hits hand still wrapped around my wrist .
Not enough to hurt , but enough to make me realize he had no intentions of letting me go anytime soon .
Watch duty he murmured .
You are coming with me .
I thought I was on Levis team , I said , my tone coming det breathy and unfamiliar .
I hated the effect he had on me , having him with me on this watch duty was probably the worst idea ever .
Especially alone ….
Thats never been the plan .
I swallowed the lump in my throat as I stared up at him .
I wasnt sure what to say at that moment , so I remained silent as he continued to pull me towards the forest opening .
Soon , we were engulfed by the woods ; it was much darker than it had been a moment ago , and truth be told , I wasnt entirely sure where we were going .
But soon , he stopped walking , and his shoulders seemed to relax some .
He finally released my wrist , and I pulled back slightly so I could look up at him .
He wasnt looking at me; instead , he was leaning against a tree with his hands buried in his pockets and his right foot resting on the trunk of the tree .
Anger flared inside of me for both his recklessness and for standing me up .
Are you going to pretend like you didnt just drag me away like some kind of caveman ? I asked , folding my arms across my chest .
What the hell was that about ? What if they get the wrong idea ! He stared at me , his eyes darkening .
Im only here to monitor you during your watch duty .
You should probably get to work , he murmured , looking away from me , his face shining with disinterest .
His words were like a stab in the chest .
I knew arguing with him would be pointless , so I decided to get to work on my watch duties .
I had seen gammas do this before ; they set themselves up high so they can get a good look at their surroundings .
The same tree Gavin was leaning against , I decided to climb to the top until I found a thick enough branch .
I remained perched on the branch , keeping my eyes out on my surroundings area , wondering where everyone else was stationed .
I wasnt really expecting anything to happen here tonight , but I was determined to make sure I nailed this job .
We remained silent for several hours , the silence stretching out and consuming us .
I stared down at him continuously throughout the night , and he remained quietly against the tree .
I went to your room , you know , I murmured , finally breaking the silence , unable to take the obvious tension any longer .
I know , he replied .
Your scent was everywhere .
I thought you were going to show up … I said softly , hating the vulnerability in my voice .
I had somewhere to be , he murmured , not bothering to look at me .
You could have called me- } You shouldnt talk during watch duties , he said , his tone having a bite to it.
1/2 Tronidnt take it anymore .
The mixed signale , his attitude towards me … I slipped out of on the ground in front of him , getting his face so he could see how furious I was with him .
ry are You being such a jerk ! I asked him .
Why did you drag toe away from the group only to treat me like His nostrils flared as he stared at me , and I knew better than to provoke a Lycan , but at this moment , all rationality went out the window .
You were the one who wanted me to go to your room , and you were the one who stood me up .
I deserve to know why .
Get back in the tree , Judy , he said through his teeth , his tone low and cold .
No , I said defiantly .
Not until you give me a reason as to why you stood me up , Gavin .
I waited for you , and you failed to show up- Dont test me right now , he said , a growl coming out of his throat .
You know what … I said , stepping away from him .
Forget it .
Im going to find Levi and ask to join his team .
I turned and was about to walk away , but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me against the tree , pinning me between his body and the tree .
You arent going anywhere with him , he growled , his wolf flashing angrily .
