I'm Your Mate
Chapter 25

I sat down at the table shoving the french toast I made earlier into my mouth. 
"Hungry?" Derek said walking into the kitchen.
"Starving." I said with a mouth full of food.
I shoved that last bite into my mouth and then put my plate in the sink. 
"Why do I feel like so hot?"
"Werewolf body temperature is hotter than humans." He shrugged.
"Which means you'll be turning soon." Jace said walking into the kitchen.
"Soon?" I asked. "How soon?" 
"Sometime today or tomorrow." He replied. 
I walked up to Jace and wrapped my arms around him, breathing in his sent. I can't believe I let Colton take me.
"Oh Avery, the cops told me you could have this back." Derek said, pulling something out and tossing it to me.
I caught it in my hands. It was my pocket knife.
"Where did you get this?" I asked, confused.
"The cops picked it up from the place Colton held you captive at." He said.
"My knife." I breathed out running my fingers along the blade. "I remember!" 
"What? What happened?" Jace asked.
"I didn't bring a weapon to school with me like I planned, but I did have this pocket knife. I shoved it into the back of my pants before Colton got me so I would have some type of weapon. He choloformed me and I woke up tied to some chair!" Jace growled at that, but I kept going.
I quickly explianed to him what happened.
"I remember getting the gun back from him and shooting him before running out of there. I just can't remember if I got him or not." I said with a sigh.
"Avery.." Jace cautiously said.
"What? What is it? Is he still out there?" I asked nervously.
"Not exactly." He said. 
"He's in jail isn't he? I want to go visit him. I want to finally rub it in that he can't control me anymore" I stated.
"He's not in jail. When you shot him.. You.." Jace stuttered.
"I what!" I shouted. Why can't he tell me? I shot him.. so what?
"He's dead.." He whispered.
"I can't.. I couldn't have done that.." Did I really hit him when I shot him? I didn't think I did..  Derek and Jace stayed quiet. I took a couple steps away from Jace. He's lying.. That can't be true. I couldn't have killed him.
"You're lying to me." 
"You're my matey. I wouldn't lie to you!" He shouted.
"I know Colton abused me, but that doesn't mean I didn't love him and care about him!" I shouted back at him. 
I was getting angry. I fell in love with him before the abusing happened. I just can't fall out of love with him! I tried taking a deep breath, but it didn't work. All I could hear was my heartbeat in my ears and my racing pulse.
"Avery, you need to calm down." I heard Jace say. 
I tried taking another deep breath, but I wasn't calming down.
"I can't." I whispered. I felt a wave of pain shoot through my body. I let out a whimper.
"She's changing into her wolf!" Jace shouted.
"We have to get her outside!" Derek said.
"Don't touch me!" I yelled. It felt like my skin was on fire.
"We need to get you outside, baby." Jace whispered to me. 
I nodded my head and let him pull me outside.
"It's going to hurt really bad for about a second. But after that you'll be fine." He encouraged me.
I took several steps away from him. I felt something in me begin to surface.  After a second of pain I felt my myself change.
I looked around and saw Derek and Jace staring at me with smiles on their face. I looked down and saw two paws on the ground.
I'm a wolf! Oh my god..
