A Mate for the Latecomer novel Chapter 10

I woke up and found myself laying in front of the bedroom door. Still couldn't believe I just cried myself to sleep over nothing. Right! If only it was nothing but no it wasn't, as everything is not okay right now.

I look out and saw that it was all consumed by the darkness. My room to was too dark to see anything. Turning on the lights I pull off my clothes before going to the shower. I put on black sweatpants then a rainbow sweater, pulling it over my head and it fits perfectly.

My stomach growls with hunger so I make my way to the kitchen. Probably everyone is asleep by now. Stumbling my way inside the kitchen I look everywhere for food and only find fruits in the fridge. I grab an apple then close it slowly before turning to run back up the stairs.

I almost jump and scream when I saw Claire sitting on a chair, in the kitchen, at the counter. Her eyes narrowed seriously she totally creeps me out now.

"Don't do that again" I continue to walk back upstairs.

"I know you're Eric's mate" I halt in my steps.

I could feel her eyes burning at the side of my cheek. From the corner of my eye she looks as if her wolf is resurfacing trying to break through her.

I laugh shortly "And your problem is?" she growls at me gritting her teeth

"Stay away from him, he's mine"

I chuckle "Are you sure?"

She caught me off guard when she pins me on the wall before dragging me outside and in to the woods. When we get there I punch her so hard that she groans on the ground before getting up and lunge at me, which I step back a little, dodging her attack.
