His Precious Mate

ALEXA

When I first arrived in Forks, I never expected any changes in my life.

However, I was wrong when I met that mysterious, gloomy boy: Nicholas Alexander.

"So, how is it? Did you finally choose me over that dog?"

"Oh, shut up, Nicho!"

March 12, 2024

It should be sunny or something in Australia, but if it's in Forks, it will be gloomy and rainy all day.

"Oh, rain, rain, go away," I recited, looking at the muddy streets of Fordland-the most gloomy area in Forks. I occasionally wrinkled my nose as my mother's sedan passed over the rocks.

"Come on, Alexa, it shouldn't be that bad to stay temporarily at your father's house. There's Jacob there. You used to have a crush on him, didn't you?"

"Well, yes, until you married his dad!!!" I replied sharply. I felt angry when I remembered that incident. "Because you married his dad, I had to bury my feelings! There's no way I can date and have a forbidden feeling with my stepbrother. This isn't a novel!"

"Well, yeah, sure...whatever," my mother rolled her eyes lazily. "At least now I'm divorced from him. Your status should be friends, instead of stepbrother."

And with that, my mother stepped on the gas and increased her speed.

Neither of us wanted to discuss this endless problem.

It wasn't long until we actually arrived at Jacob's residence.

"It's really giving off his vibe, I see," I thought, getting out of the car while looking at this classic American-style house. Despite being the Forks head sheriff, Jacob's father really likes hunting, so it's normal if his house is brown and a bit dark.

"There's even a furry carpet as a welcome, is that his hunting result-" "Alexa!!!"

"Huh?"

Suddenly, a pair of muscular tan hands hugged me from behind. I blushed when I smelled the familiar cedarwood scent, and feeling his toned abs, I knew who it was.

"Jacob..." I called in a breath. Jacob grinned widely, and his perfect chiseled jaw still rested on my shoulder.

"Hi, step, long time no see," he whispered in my ear. I giggled when I felt him sniffing my neck playfully, and I fucking didn't remember when he was this sensual. "I saw the car and only saw you. Where's Mama?"

"Mama?" I looked left and right and spotted her talking with my ex-stepdad. From the way they talked to each other, I knew that their conversation was awkward, and maybe my mother hoped to get back together.

"Well, it seems they're talking about adult things. You know what I mean. I don't even know why your father divorced her in the first place," I said without taking my eyes off them.

Jacob sighed. "Yeah, I know. But that's adults. If only they could think in the wild side...." Jacob's last words made me frown. "Anyway, I've transformed the guest room to your liking. Why don't you put your stuff there first? I can give you a hand to arrange it since I'm free."

"Okay, sure." Then, Jacob escorted me. However, it didn't end as an escort because Jacob suddenly lifted me up!
