I sat in the cell crying for hours. No one came around; no one checked on me. I was left all alone to sit there, crying over a man who I thought was supposed to love me. I hate to admit Timothy is right, but he is. He warned me this would happen, but I didn't listen. I hope he can forgive me, I want nothing more than to just go home.Sadly, my mate turned out to be crap. Denver thinks he can make me act and talk exactly how he wants. He thinks he controls me and that keeping me down here will give him more power. The truth is, it does. The longer I'm down here, the more broken I feel. I can't believe that my own mate played me. He talks down to me and has no care in the world for how I feel.This wasn't supposed to be like this, it was supposed to be magical. I was supposed to have a mate who would sweep me off my feet, love me no matter what and always take care of me. I guess you can't always get what you want and right now I'm not even sure I even know what I need.I just want to l
I can't take this anymore. I'm cut off from everyone and everything. I haven't seen Leon, he hasn't come down since before. People I don't know have been giving me food, dirty looks, then proceed to walk away. How could Denver run a place like this? You're not treated as an equal and I couldn't imagine staying in this pack. I miss my old pack, at least you were treated with respect- well, except for me of course.Why do I always have to be the person who gets crap all the time? I hate everyone and everything in this place! I must sound really whiny and over dramatic, but it's genuinely how I feel.I've been hurt so much over these past few days down here. Denver gave notice to some people that I am not in fact his 'true mate'. A guy I noticed from the meeting before came down to feed me and when I asked him about all of this, his only reply was that I've been rejected. It hurt like hell to hear that, but I guess I saw that one coming all along.I cried out as I banged my back against
I woke up wrapped in the arms of another, their heat radiating off their skin and onto mine. I could feel their hot breath against the back of my exposed neck, sending chills throughout my entire body. My body was pressed tightly to theirs and the light struggle I made to move away caused a low growl to vibrate through their chest. As weird as it was for that person to make that type of sound in reaction to me moving away, it also made me feel strangely safe and warm. I slowly lifted my eyelids to take in the room around me. Darkness consumed every corner of the room, giving away nothing as to what's hiding within it. I cocked my head to the side in attempt to see the sleeping person beside me. Although the darkness hid the room, it couldn't hide the one man I've come to know oh so well over the past few days-Denver; my mate. Seeing him laying there so calm and innocent made my heart swoon for him, but I know that's not even close to the feelings I should be having. He's the man who
"Lily!" A voice shouted, pulling me from my sleep and forcing me to wake up."What?" I mumbled, hoping the person would shut up or just go away."You have to get dressed, I was ordered to have you ready an hour ago!" The voice exclaimed, running around the room and knocking things over in the process."By who?" I asked, opening my eyes slowly and letting them adjust to the light.Once I could see clearly, I noticed Rowena frantically moving around to get stuff in order. She held clothes in her hands and a few baskets were on the dresser. I sat up straight, yawning and trying to get myself together for her sake."Alpha Denver will have my head if you aren't downstairs in twenty minutes," Rowena yelled, throwing the clothes at me. "Here, put these on now!" She ordered, her yellow eyes expressing how scared out of her mind she is.Before I could ask her anything or even get another word out, she rushed out of the room. I like Rowena and watching her as a nervous wreck doesn't sit well wi
"You will do as I say, Helena!" My eyes widened in shock. "But, Dad—" I couldn't finish my sentence because Dad had backhanded me, and I flew off the chair, across the room. "Are you talking back to me, Helena?" He growled threateningly, ready to throw another slap on my face. I held onto my throbbing cheek and slowly shook my head. “N-No, Dad...” Silent tears slid down my cheeks and my whole body shook. "Dave, leave the poor girl alone!" I heard my Mom scolded him. "I would! But, she never listens to me anymore. What am I supposed to do with her? What am I supposed to your daughter?" "Alpha... Luna... The Alpha from the Red Rose pack is asking for permission to enter our land. Should we give it to them?" I heard one of the fighters call out. "Of course, of course! Let them in!" My Dad said excitedly. "Why is he here?" My mom mumbled. "He's here to check our daughter out, don't you remember? I told you that these two are going out tonight." Dad emphasized the last three words.
We ran for about six hours. I was beyond exhausted. We had shifted to our wolf form only once but that was because we were trying to get out of another pack's territory before they found out. We had ran like our lives depended on it. Well, it did. "You said you made some arrangements. I'm tired, Felix!" I whined. "I did. We just need to run a little bit more." He huffed. One look at him and you could tell that he was exhausted and so close to giving up. He started to jog forward and I dragged my feet behind him. I saw a black shadow from the corner of my eye but thought it was nothing. I continued to walk until I was grabbed from my arm and pulled into someone's side. "Felix!" I tried to scream out but it was muffled. My wolf was on full alert and she tried to shift. But with the strong grip the person had on me, my wolf was struggling. I mind linked Felix and that's when he turned around and saw. My eyes were wide open and tears formed in them. Felix's eyes grew big and he to
'Idiot, do something. Its our mate!' My wolf screamed at me. But, all I did was just stand like an idiot. "Mine!" He growled again. He stopped a couple of centimeters away from my face and I felt someone grab my hand. I looked down and saw Felix's hand wrapped around my wrist. I was roughly pushed behind him and his hand stayed on my wrist. Both men were growling at each other and Dom looked like he was going to pass out. "Let her go!" I heard the guy growl. "Aaron, calm down man!" Don huffed. "Don't fucking tell me to calm down!" The guy, Aaron, yelled at Don. Don jumped from the yell and bowed his head. Aaron came to face my brother, and pushed him roughly to the side. "Felix!" I yelled out. I ran over to where he had landed. There was a big gash across his forehead. "Oh my God! Felix, are you okay?" I whispered to him. "Why the hell are you asking him if he's okay?" Aaron snapped. "Because he's my damn brother!" I screamed at him. His face softened just a tiny bit. "Hel
"Luna, Alpha Aaron told me to come and get you." Don walked inside the room. "You can call me Helena. Luna's too proper." I shuddered to make my point. He chuckled and nodded his head. "I have a question, Luna." I glared at him. He caught on and chuckled. "Sorry. I have a question, Helena?" I smiled at him. I nodded my head at him, which signaled him to talk. "Why was Alpha Aaron mad?" My smile dropped and a blush appeared. "Sorry, I shouldn't have asked!" He bowed his head. I shook my head and mustered up a smile. "It's fine. We just had a little argument. That's all." He looked up at me and smiled. "Aaron's a good guy." He smiled. I nodded my head. The door slammed open and there stood a pissed off Aaron. "I told you to get her, not chit chat with her, Don," he said sternly. "Sorry, Alpha. Helena was just grabbing some things." He bowed his head. 'During these times, he can be a real bastard!' Don sent through a mind link. I held onto a chuckle that was about to break loos
