Hours passed before Dorian stormed from the room, leaving me in a pool of my own blood and his semen, my body and mind broken as I laid there, staring at nothing in particular. I had always been told that the bond between mates was sacred and special, but he had treated me with nothing but cruelty. The tears had dried up long before he left, my screams turning into nothing but whimpers of pain and anguish. How could anyone do this? What had I ever done to deserve what he had done? I cried out when I tried to stand, the bruises that swamp my body a painful reminder that what he said was true, I was worthless. I was nothing. He could do whatever he wished to me and I would be powerless to stop it, he was stronger than I could ever hope to be. An alpha.
I fell onto my knees, unable to stand as the pain was too unbearable, my silent sobs the only sound I could hear. Before I knew what was happening I was crawling to the bathroom to do what I could to rid myself of
Where are we going? Kayla asks me, concerned that we had been running for a long time with no destination.I don’t know. I reply honestly, all I know is we have to get away from him. I agree. She snarls, huffing angrily at what he had done to us. He can’t treat us like that and get away with it. No, he can’t. I growl, completely agreeing with Kayla.In all the stories mother told me about mates, she never mentioned that we could get one like Dorian, and a small part of me hates her for it. Why couldn’t she have warned us? She must have seen plenty act like him when she was in a pack, so why didn’t she say anything? Did she hope that I would be given one who would love me unconditionally?I wasn’t exactl
Eventually we pulled apart, our eyes locking in a silent embrace as we took each other in, as though seeing each other for the first time. My heart swelled with love instantly, my breath shaky and a little nervous. Would he kiss me? Would he treat me better than Dorian did? Would he love me? Thousands of questions propelled themselves into the front of my mind, bombarding me with an endless monologue of love and hope.I want him. I want to meet his wolf. Kayla snarled, trying to push herself forward in excitement.Not right now, we need to get back to his pack and make sure we weren’t followed. I counter, my own excitement present in my tone.She whined softly, sadness coating his animalistic voice. But definitely later?I promise. I whisper to her.“I’m sorry to interrupt, but we really must ge
Jamie leads me to a bedroom on the second floor, pulling out some of his sweats and giving them to me once I had shifted back, suddenly nervous that we were alone. I took a step away from him, but kept my smile, I knew that he wouldn’t hurt me; yet after living with Dorian I was nervous about anyone. Especially men. It was freaky to learn about yourself in situations like this, I didn’t realise that I was as afraid as I felt now.“I’m sorry.” I murmur, knowing that I’m causing him stress.“You never need to apologise for setting boundaries that you are comfortable with, I will respect them either way.” He smiles, ensuring he didn’t move towards me.“I-I want to be close to you… I don’t know what is wrong with me.” I sigh, flopping back onto the double bed.The room was different to the one I had stayed in with Dorian, the
I finish the chicken and rice within a few minutes, Jamie stroking my arms and cuddling me the whole time, not once rushing or chastising me for taking too long. It was refreshing to have someone like him, and I can’t help but think this is how all mates should be, this is how the moon goddess should place people together. Alphas like Dorian don’t deserve a mate, he doesn’t deserve anyone.I wonder if he is looking for me, if he knows where I am through the mate bond and what would happen when he arrives. Would Jamie fight him? Would Dorian threaten this pack? I didn’t want a war to break out, but I also didn’t want to go back with Dorian, I never wanted to see him again.“What are you thinking love?” Jamie asks me, noticing that I was frowning.I sigh deeply, “what’s going to happen when Dorian and his men arrive?”“He can’t for
I was vaguely aware of my surroundings as I slowly woke up, the warmth embrace of Jamie comforting to me instantly, I wanted nothing more than to stay like this forever. To feel him pressed against me until the end of our days, but I knew it wasn’t possible and with my bladder pestering me to go to the toilet I knew I couldn’t hold it for long, no matter how much I wanted to.I got off the bed as quietly as I could and peeled myself away from him, quickly using the blanket to cover my naked form as I rushed towards the bathroom, the edge to use the toilet overwhelming. I did my business in use the fresh toothbrush that was on the side, wanting to freshen up as much as I could I jumped in the shower, the hot water pleasing to my aching body.Once I was finished I dried my body and quickly got out, walking back into the room in search of Jamie, wondering if he was awake yet. To my surprise he was still curled up on the bed, h
How about breakfast?" He asks me. "Are you hungry?"i nod my head, a smile coating my lips. "Yeah sure. What did you have in mind?""pancakes?""yes!" I smile, jumping from the bed. "I'll need some clothes then."He bellows with laughter, "I can help you with that."he jumps up from the bed and walks into the walk-in wardrobe, I sit on the edge of the bed and wait, not sure I want to go inside. The memories of what happened at Dorian's still fresh in my mind, making me nervous and unsure. He comes out a few minutes later with a long blue jumper and some boxers.jamie was much larger than I was, so I knew that it would fit, it would even reach my knees, most of Dorian's did the same. I guess I was small for a wolf, but I wasn't sure if that was correct or not because all I had met was alphas and betas, the most powerful wolves.I thank him for the clothes and quickly put them on whilst he goes to shower, my thou
I decide make some coffee for us both and sit at the table, still not sure how to even work the oven, though managing to use the kettle just fine. It was a quicker boil and easy to use. I just hope that other things I’m going to learn are this easy. I’m not stupid, but I think that with everything I have to learn it will take some time to get used to.“What would you like with your pancakes?” Jamie asks me, turning his head away from the cooker for a second. “They’re nearly done.”I frown, not even knowing what does go on them. “What do you like on your pancakes?” I ask.“I usually have syrup or sugar.” He says with a smile.“I’ll have syrup please.” I decide, not sure that sugar would go with food very well.This is all so confusing Kayla, it’s like I’m a newborn cub. I complain, despising the fact that mother kept me out of the l
Dorian's eyes darken, "be careful what you say rogue.""I don't want an agreement, I want to reject him." I say bravely, pushing my shoulders back and my chin up. "I don't anything to do with you or your pack.""it doesn't work like that sweetness." Dorian laughs, "I have already marked you, rejecting me will kill you."I gasp, taking a step back in shock. "No! That can't be true.""I'm afraid it is." Jamie sighs, "it also works the same if you are away from each other for longer than 14 days, you will grow weaker and eventually not be able to shift."I think back to what Kayla told me about feeling weak and tired, my eyes widening in shock and fear. That means that I will always have to see Dorian, he will always be a part of my life no matter how much I hate him."I don't want this." I sob, "I would rather die.""no!" Dorian and Jamie say together, both of them fuming that I would even consider doing somethin
