Andrea’s POV He was basically on top of me, restraining me with his body while one of his hands held my wrist tightly and the other wrapped around my neck. We were touching each other everywhere and it didn’t help that I was entirely naked against him. If it was anyone else, I would have done the impossible to get him the fuck off me. I would have killed myself trying to pry his hands off me. But my body, my heart, and even my head betrayed me, betrayed how utterly unafraid I am at him restraining me. My head didn’t go to that dark memory that this exact same position should have triggered. My heart didn’t shiver in fear. My soul didn’t scream in fury at being forced and my bond….. My bond with him showed me how utterly disgusted he feels at the prospect of hurting me with what he was doing. He hated himself with a deepness that truly reached far into my stubbornness and made it stop resisting the obvious. He really didn’t want to do this to me if it wasn’t for me forcing his han
Andrea’s POV I stared at him wide eyed, he took me off guard and I found my eyes automatically looking down at his soft looking lips. Is he talking about what I think it is or am I getting this all wrong? What the fuck is wrong with him? Where does he get the nerve to suggest something like that! I was still breathing hard and the more I inhaled, the more my body relaxed as it got filled with his soothing mint scent, more intense now due to him taking my personal space into the next level. His eyes were also traveling between mine and my lips, up this close, the tension between us was off the charts. Our bodies wanting to eliminate every inch of space between us while our minds fighting against it because of our hatred of each other. “How about… I bite your tongue off so you don’t mention giving me something to think about again?” I bit out tightly. His lips stretched into a smile instantly and I cursed myself for lingering on those lips for more than I should have. “If you tast
Andrea’s POVI remained in my position next to the bars as I waited for him to come to me.I checked my bond with him and registered a lot of anger.I couldn’t point the source of his anger though. Was it because I was hurting myself? Because I was hurting him? Or because I messed up his game of driving me crazy by leaving me alone for a very long time and made him come down here to stop me? I was really curious to know which answer was the real reason.The door slid open and he appeared in front of me. He didn’t pause as he came inside and crouched right in front of me with a very hard look on his face, it made my chest tighten in a little bit of fear.His hand darted in my direction and against my better judgment not to allow him to see me scared, I automatically flinched away, turned my face to the side, and hugged myself tighter, bracing for a pain that is about to be imposed by someone other than me.But the pain I was
Alec’s POV“You should have allowed her to see Mila! You were supposed to be kind remember? How is this kindness exactly?” Maddox complained angrily at me.I was sitting against the headboard of my bed, watching the girl stare with her mouth gaping open at the full fridge in confusion through my phone.“Relax buddy, I have a plan. She will see her, but when the time is right not a moment before” I assured him firmly.To be honest, macaroni and cheese is not really something I would normally eat. But since it is the only thing she knows how to do, I had no choice but to agree to it.“You could have asked her to reheat some of the prepared food” Maddox said thoughtfully, trying to figure me out.“No, if she knows how to make that dish, then she must like it a lot. I wanted her to prepare something she really likes. That way, her chances of eating it would be higher. I need to get some food into h
Andrea’s POV I sat on the chair hesitantly. I didn’t want to eat. I seriously had no appetite and just the thought of putting that single bite I agreed to have in my mouth, had my stomach rolling and tightening viciously. But the deal he presented me with was too good to turn down, he knew exactly how to get me to do what he wanted. Striking that deal sure as hell delighted him even though he tried to hide the victory in his eyes from me. He thinks if I made a deal once, then I am prone to do it again if he presents me with something I cannot turn away from, but he’s wrong. Checking on Mila is the only thing that mattered to me. And if I see her now, there will be nothing left to make me agree to anything else. Even some fresh air outside won’t get me talking to him and revealing what he wants to know. “He will learn the truth eventually, you know. You won’t be able to stay locked in that cell for more than a week before you go crazy Andy, I know you too well. So might as well get
Three Days LaterRyan’s POV“Whenever you are ready, Mila. And again, you don’t have to go through with it today. You can stop at any second if you feel like you can’t take it anymore. It will probably be really painful because of how long it’s been and I don’t want you or Tina to push yourselves too far and put yourselves at risk, please” I said gently to her, My fingers aching to hold her cheeks and comfort her because I could feel how much she is stressed right now. But I have been trying to keep things casual and not freak her out for days now. I don’t want to ruin all my progress with her by doing anything to scare her especially when it comes to touching.We’ve been training everyday for the past three days twice. Once in the morning and another session in the evening; upon her request of course.While I was taken by surprise at the beginning when she revealed that she was to be the future beta o
Ryan’s POVIt started out with soft controlled whimpering.She was trying to hold back, to withstand her pain and suffer as silently as possible. It probably comes from years of abuse and pain tolerance she had to build up in order to survive.A few more minutes of whimpers turned into gasps of pain when the first bones started to break inside her with loud, aching snaps.It was exactly like the first shift. The doctor was right.Her bones would break and instead of completing the shift, they would pop back in place multiple times.Tina was having a hard time completing her shift and when she takes too much time, her healing ability would kick in and heal the break back to its place.It was excruciating to watch let alone feel.Her screams rang loudly around the forest, pure, raw and extremely heart breaking.My eyes stung with tears while my heart cracked with every bone that was breaking and rearranging.My hands ran all over her bare back, trying to support her as best as I could b
Ryan’s POVShe shook her head in denial, refusing to believe my words, or convincing herself not to believe me.I didn’t know how else I can make her believe me without a shred of a doubt.“I’m hideous” she whispered so low, I barely heard what she was too ashamed to admit out loud.A painful lump formed in my throat at her broken words.I was about to say something when she carried on, no longer struggling to break free from my hold but instead, she was hiding her face in my chest and stuttering emotionally “N… not just m..m..my eye, I’m….d…damaged on s… so…. Many levels. We don’t… d.. Deserve e.. Each… other, Ryan”I tightened my hold on her and said fiercely “Don’t say that. You are not hideous and you are not damaged, not to me. I want you just the way you are. Because you are so beautiful just the way you are and I’m willing to prove it to you. To prove to you that I will always be here for you… always and forever. Even if you can’t shift. Even if you can’t love me back in every
