Sam

Kyrn, Chloe, Hunter, Tim, and I arrived at Subway quickly because of some people, Hunter and Tim, were complaining about being hungry.

They showed me and Kyrn around town.

There was a movie theater, a mall, restaurants like Olive Garden, Steak 'n Shake, and many, many others.

So here we were sitting in Subway eating our sandwiches.

Mine included Italian bread, cold cut, bacon, lettuce, mayo, cheese, and pickles.

I loved bacon. It was my weakness. That and Oreos!

The bell dinged and I heard a voice all too familiar. "I'm so in the mood for some Subway."

Kyrn looked up and stiffened along with me.

"Oh no," I said out loud.

"It's both of them," she said in disbelief.

I turned around and there they were. Brett and Trey.

"Shit," I mumbled.

Since Hunter was sitting next to me and he was on the outside, I ducked down and used his body as a shield.

Kyrn saw what I did and did the same motion and hid behind Tim.

They looked confused.

"Are you guys okay?" Chloe asked us.

"Yeah we are fine," Kyrn said quietly.

"Then why are you girls hiding?" Tim asked.

"Just stay right here please," I said uneasily.

"Luna. What's wrong?" Hunter asked in full protective mode.

I groaned as he called me Luna. Oh well, better get used to him calling me that when he needs to.

I sighed and decided to tell them.

"Mine and Kyrn's old boyfriends are right there. I caught mine having sex with another girl in his room on our two-year anniversary. Kyrn's was a complete ass and was abusive. He would yell at her and sometimes hit her for stupid reasons. He also punched me when I confronted him about hitting her. His name is Trey." I pointed to him and they looked. "My ex is Brett." And I pointed to him. "Brett didn't hit me but he got extremely jealous and would get in my face and yell at me. But some of the time he got really close to hitting me but he never did." I looked down and bit my lip while Kyrn was playing with her hands.

Hunter, Tim, and Chloe all looked at us in shock, disbelief anger, and sorrow and growled lowly.

Tim growled, grabbing his drink. "I'll throw everything away then we can get out of here."

We nodded and Hunter scooted closer to me and put his arm in front of my waist under the table for protection.

I smiled a thank you and he gave me a smile back.

"Ready?" Chloe asked.

I nodded frantically.

Hunter slowly got up so I still could be hidden behind him.

"Sam?" I heard Brett's voice.

"Crap," I muttered.

"Is that you?" I heard footsteps and someone put their hand on my arm and turned me around. "Hey." Brett said smiling.

"Kyrn," I heard Trey's voice.

Anger bubbled up inside of me when I saw him touching her shoulder.

I yanked my arm free from Brett's grasp and marched over to Trey.

"Oh hey Sa-" He never finished because I pulled my arm back and socked him in the jaw.

"Don't ever. And I mean ever, touch Kyrn again. Got it?" I spat at him while he was on the ground holding his jaw.

He glared at me and I smiled sweetly before I grabbed Kyrn's hand and walked over to see Hunter, Tim, and Chloe smiling proudly at me.

"What?" I asked laughing.

"Nice punch," Tim complimented.

"Thanks." I smiled with a wink.

"Sam wait," Brett yelled running up to me.

Hunter stepped in the way and Brett came to a halt.

"Don't even," Hunter said with a glare.

"Could you please move so I could get to my girlfriend?" Brett said bitterly.

I gasped in surprise. "You have the nerve to call me your girlfriend after what you did to me. Should I remind you? Probably. You had sex with another girl on our two year anniversary."

"I know. And I'm sorry, I was so stupid to do that. Please, I regret it so much. I love you so much, Sam. I'm sorry I took you for granted. I miss you, I miss holding you, I miss kissing you, and I miss seeing your smile and knowing that I'm the reason," Brett rambled.

"Please. You were barely the reason. Kyrn was the main reason. You got jealous even if a guy walked right past me," I spat.

"I was afraid someone better was going to steal your heart."

I scoffed. "You cussed out a waiter for talking to me. And he was taking my order because that's his job!"

He looked up at me and anger was making an appearance. "Oh my gosh. You are so overly dramatic!" he yelled.

And there's his anger problem that I know and love. Ha ha, sarcasm!

"He was flirting with you and I'm your boyfriend. Only I can do that. Gosh, get the damn story right Sam, and quit lying to everyone. You were always good at lying." Brett yelled as he threw his hands up in the air

"I think we need to leave," Hunter said grabbing my frozen hand.

I can't believe he just said that.

"No, you don't. Trey and I need to have our girls back before you leave. So if you could give us Kyrn and Sam, then you guys can leave," Brett said.

I looked over at Trey and he was burning holes in my head.

I smirked when I saw his jaw was slightly crooked. I think I broke it. Oops?

"I don't think so." Hunter chuckled.

"And why not?" Brett spat.

Hunter smirked. "Because if you took Sam and Kyrn away, then alp- um Xavier and Jay wouldn't be very happy. And when they aren't happy, well let's just say it's not a pretty sight and you don't want to be the cause of their anger."

"Who the hell are Xavier and Jay?"

"Their boyfriends," Tim answered.

Both Trey and Brett stood there in shock before their faces held anger. And a lot of it might I add.

"And we have to go to meet them. Bye," Hunter added.

"Whatever. But we'll get them back. Just wait and see," he turned to me and Kyrn and gave us an evil smile. "And that's a promise."

With that, he and Trey walked out the door.

I grabbed Kyrn's hand and ran out of Subway.

"Let's go home guys," Chloe said full of anger.

The car ride felt longer than normal and I just wanted to be with Xavier right now. I felt protected with him.

"Hey," Kyrn said as she nudged me softly. "We are back at the house."

I slowly looked up at her and nodded. "Right."

"It's going to be okay Sam," Kyrn offered a small smile.

I returned a small smile back and hopped out of the car, running to go find Xavier.

I just wanted to be in his arms because I felt so safe. I wonder if it's this mate thing.

"Hey. How was-" I cut him off by jumping in his arms. "Miss me that much?" he asked amused.

Tears made their way down my face and I held onto him tighter.

"Princess, what's wrong?" Xavier asked worriedly.

"Let's just say we ran into their ex-boyfriends," Chloe spat with disgust.

Xavier growled loudly and held me tighter.

"What ex-boyfriends?" he asked through gritted teeth.

"Brett and Trey," she said. "But it was kind of awesome beca-"

"How was it awesome?" Jay yelled.

"She punched Trey in the jaw and I think she broke it." Chloe laughed.

"Really?" Jay asked me.

I turned around in Xavier's arms and nodded.

"He grabbed Kyrn's shoulder," Chloe said as she shuttered in disgust.

"He did what? No other man is allowed to touch Kyrn besides me!" he growled out.

"It's okay. I think he got the message when Sam punched him," she said smiling.

"Good job princess," Xavier laughed.

"Thank you," I giggled. Xavier smiled, but then turned very serious.

"You need to tell us everything that happened," he said crossing his arms over his chest. "And I mean everything, straight from the beginning until now."

I sighed and reluctantly nodded.

I went on to tell them about Brett and Trey. How they acted, how we all met, and how they are related.

"And that's all of it," I said to him and Jay.

I finally told Xavier and Jay the story between me and Kyrn and our exes. It only took about 30 minutes to explain because they kept growling and interrupting us every now and then.

When I looked up from my shaking hands, Xavier looked like he was about to kill someone. Same with Jay. Both of their eyes are glowing and it was starting to creep me out. But the glowing stormy grey eyes were amazing.

I needed to stop because I was starting to get lost in them.

Suddenly his eyes snapped to me and a growl rumbled through his chest.

"Uh, Xavier?" I asked.

"He can't do that! And he isn't getting you!" His voice was deep and full of power.

That doesn't sound like him.

"Um, Jay?" I asked him, worriedly.

"You need to calm him down, Sam. His wolf took over and he is going into full protective mode," he answered wrapping his arms around Kyrn's waist and pulling her behind him.

"You just said his wolf took over. I'm not going near him," I said scooting away from Xavier or his wolf.

He growled and stood up walking over to me.

My eyes went big but I couldn't move.

I was frozen to my spot.

"Calm down Ryder," Jay said urgently. "Sam."

"Who's Ryder?" I asked him completely confused.

"Me," Xavier or his wolf said.

"Um, I thought you were Xavier."

"I'm his wolf." 'Ryder smiled at me.

"Oh," was all I could say.

Ryder got close to me and I scooted away still terrified.

He growled and scooped me up in his arms.

"Hey. Put me down!" I shouted.

"No. I will not have you taken away from me. You belong to me," Xavier or I guess Ryder said.

"I belong to myself. I'm not an object you know," I said as I folded my arms over my chest.

"I know you aren't, princess. But you being my mate means you do belong to me as I belong to you." Ryder smiled.

"This is so weird."

"I know." He chuckled.

"Can you put me down now?"

"No. I like having you in my arms," he said while putting his face in my neck and sniffing? Did he just sniff me? Seriously?

"Yeah. And I like having my feet on the ground," I mumbled as I tried to touch the ground beneath my feet.

He shook his head and wrapped my legs around his waist and put his hand right under my butt.

"Oh great. You're a pervert, too." I sighed.

Both Kyrn and Jay held in a laugh and had to cover it with a cough.

But Ryder on the other hand, he didn't laugh. He growled.

"I'm not a pervert Sam. You're my mate; I'm allowed to touch you," he replied while holding onto me tighter.

"You men are so hard to understand," I started wiggling out of his grasps.

He set me back down and closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, they were back to his normal, not glowing grey color.

"Well you women are just as hard to understand," he defended.

"Whatever. I'm going to bed," I said walking up the steps.

"Okay. Let's go. Night everyone," Xavier yelled while walking up the steps.

I still have a lot of questions to ask him.

Like why he sniffed me, why his eyes changed color, andwhat it means when his wolf is out? I can always ask him in the morning.
