His Human

Four

Jax ^

Brooklyn's POV

The new person, whom I assumed was Jax, stalked closer to me. Before I could react, he yanked me again at his side and snarled, "MINE!"

I let out a small sound of fear because, as amazing and perfect as this position felt, this guy was seriously terrifying. Especially since I'd seen his wolf form.

Xander held his hands up slightly. "Geez, I was just trying to take her to you."

Jax growled again and pulled me slightly behind him, as if my own family was going to hurt me. Out of everyone in this room, I was most terrified of Jax. One, he bit me. Two, he's a freaking wolf. Third, this guy could probably step on me. Seriously.

I was debating running for my life and hoping to never see this guy again, possibly moving to another continent, but I also knew I couldn't leave him. Why? The stupid bond that makes me want to never leave his side.

"Um...we'll leave you two to talk, I guess." My mom said, while I silently pleaded to her to not leave me with my eyes, which she ignored. No! Don't leave me with the terrifying wolf! Come back!

She didn't come back, and neither did my father or Xander. Traitors.

Since we were in a public place, I felt slightly safer until I remembered that they're all also wolves and probably wouldn't think twice about a wolf tearing a human limb from limb.

Oh gosh, someone help me. I'll accept anyone at this point.

Jax took my hand and practically dragged me to a room filled with books - my favorite! - and I couldn't help but stare at them longingly. There were so many books in here! I'd never seen this many in one place before.

Row upon row, isle upon isle, there were probably millions of them in this gigantic room.

I almost lay leaped out of my skin when I realized Jax was watching me stare at the books. I'd honestly forgotten he was here, I was so mesmerized by all the titles practically leaping to at me.

"Uhm...hi." I squeaked awkwardly, still absolutely terrified of this guy. He was at least 6'5 ish or taller and incredibly muscular. Plus, he had fangs. I guess it makes sense for a werewolf, but it's absolutely terrifying for a human.

Jax narrowed his eyes slightly, and it sent chills through my body - both the good and bad ones, which was incredibly weird and confusing.

I shifted my weight nervously, beginning to wonder if he talked. Wait, of course he does, he growled 'mine' earlier...maybe he's just quiet?

"I'm Jax." He said finally, and I bit my lip.

"Brooklyn." I honestly surprised myself by not stuttering slightly.

"I'm sorry about the bite." He said after a second of awkward silence.

I adjusted my hair self-consciously, not knowing how to respond.

Jax moved closer and I moved back, biting my lip harder than before. He growled softly and moved forward with inhuman speed to cup my jaw gently and move his thumb across my bottom lip.

It took all I had to not moan, but it helped slightly that I was still terrified of him.

His pupils dilated and...gosh, I wanted to kiss him so badly. But I also wanted to run away, screaming.

"Don't bite your lip." He whispered harshly before I could do so, and my eyes widened. How did he know what I was about to do?

"Why not?" I whispered, feeling a tiny rush of confidence that I immediately regretted. Don't anger the big, bad wolf, Brooklyn!

"I assume you're not ready to fully complete the mating process." He whispered, and I stepped back from him as if that would keep him from doing whatever he wanted to me. There's no way I could stop him if I wanted to.

My back bumped into the bookshelf behind me and I couldn't help but realize that I am now trapped. 

"I'm not going to hurt you." Jax said, slowly approaching me. It reminded me of how someone would approach a wild or skittish animal.

"You don't believe me." He whispered, so close that we were almost chest to chest - well, he's wayyy taller than me, so chest to stomach or head to chest is better. But it doesn't sound better.

Okay, I'm super off-topic. Get your head in the game, Brooklyn!

Jax moved a strand of my hair, making the cliche-ness of this situation increase. Then again, I love cliche and romantic and sappy romance - and all that crap - stuff. 

I hummed slightly as a confirmation to his sentence prior and Jax furrowed his eyebrows.

"Why?" He asked simply.

"Maybe because you bit me? And could literally squash me? And do whatever you want to me?" I whispered, leaning away from him ad much as I could with a bookshelf digging into my back.

All of that, plus my drama with my ex. How can I trust him immediately after that? He may be the most kind and honorable guy in the planet and I still wouldn't trust him at first.

Then again, this bond thingy is making me want to close the distance, kiss him, and do lots of dirty things in this library.

Speaking of that, where the heck are the people? Is this library just...empty? No librarian? No one?

"Biting you was...an accident." Jax said after several seconds. "And I'd never hurt you."

Why do I want to believe this guy so much?!

Instead of being all 'you did hurt me! I have a scar now!' I said softly, "I still don't believe you."

"Then go on a date with me. Let me prove it." He said, stepping back. I could breathe easier now, but...I still wanted him closer. However, I assumed that was the mate bond.

"I-I don't know." I said, not really wanting to give him more chances to murder me. Then again, he could have already murdered and disposed of the body by now.

He seemed to be becoming slightly annoyed. "I'm not going to hurt you. I promise. If I had wanted to, I would've done it by now."

I slowly nodded my head and his annoyed expression turned to a mixture of excitement and happiness.
