Annabelle
"Marry me , "his rich deep voice startles me from my hospital bed. I look at him in shock. I was not expecting this to happen . He folds his tattooed arms across his chest and looks at me with his dark green eyes in expectancy. This is not something that I wanted right now considering the fact that I'm in a hospital bed.Any other deal would be better but I'm not going to marry a beast in disguise. "Excuse me , "I answer back in shock as I look at him with widened eyes. I finger the cold engagement ring on my other hand . Alot of thought went into this. Why would he want to marry me now ? I look at the man in front of me and he stares back at me with a patient face.He seriously thinks that we should marry . Hell no! He was there when my brother . He killed my brother and my father had a stroke through stroke . Everything is just so messed up and he wants to marry me . "I can't marry you I'm sorry , "I shake my head slowly. "you were willing to get married to someone you didn't love Anna and I think we all know why , "he answers. "You have the nerve to tell me that when you are the one that killed my brother , "I hiss as I try to get up from my position. "I did not kill your brother , "he cocks his head and left a his eyebrow in shock. "You were the last person that saw him when he got burnt in that house. You killed my brother and now -" "You need your pack to flourish and stabilize without a proper alpha to form alliances with. You are as good as dead and I don't think refusing this good offer is your option at that moment, " "I don't want to get married to you Jason , "I drawl out his name The drop dead gorgeous and hot as Hades man standing in front of me in the hospital is a beast ! The man who killed my brother .I keep on saying this so many times in my head because I don't want to marry him . The man who I trusted with my whole life when we were kids . Now he is so different . He is covered tattoos with a dark look and a chisled jaw and smooth face that any woman can die for. I can't seem to get over the fact that he is here and alive with so much power that I can't fathom . "I don't want to get married to someone who ran me over on my wedding day , "I fold my arms on defiance . "you were coming out from a motel , "he raises his left eyebrow. "it doesn't matter , "I answer back with a stubborn. So what? I had a tip about Ben's location and immediately followed the address until I discovered that he was sleeping with my cousin Sloane . I couldn't even breathe when I saw them in the sheets . I immediately ran out of the motel in shock . I got ran over by Jason and now we here are... In a hospital bed and Jason proposing marriage to me. If some one was to narrate all this to me in the past . I would laugh at them... Loudly! "it matters because you can't get married to someone who betrayed you, " he answers back as he quirks his eyebrow. "you betrayed me too, "I fold my arms tightly with anger dripping in my tone. "you have no proof of that and name any wolf that can marry you right away while handling your shitty pack, "he looks at me with a deadly calm look. I shift uncomfortably in my bed and think about the way things have turned out .At this point I don't think I have a choice in any of this . I always dreamt of having a mate and getting married with beautiful pups and raising them peacefully but now I'm in a hospital bed facing my worst nightmare with a good proposal that could change my entire life and pack. I should just take it . "it will only take a few people to know that you are wolfless Annabellle ,"he warns me as he faces me "How do you -" " It will be a only a few years until you give me a heir and your pack will be back to it's feet and you can go on your life , "he continues talking and I'm left stunned by his cockiness and domineering energy . I fold my hands as I think about the pros and cons of the situation . I don't know what I should do in this situation. The only thing I can do is just accept his proposal and when we get our ends of the deal . I'm going to get out of this awful marriage that hasn't even begun yet. But then I need to give him a pup! A heir . The thought of having sex and stripping off for Jason gives me goosebumps and makes my skin shiver . Will I able to see my child again after this? Confusion clouds my judgement as I think about my decision. But at the end of the day , my current situation overrides my emotion. "I accept, "I whisper reluctantly . "Good , "he answers in a monotone voice, "my lawyer will prepare a contract and we are going to get married today, " "Today ? "I frown as I look at my hospital gown . My face falters immediately at the word 'Today' "Yes today , "he quirks his eyebrows . Do you have a problem with that? " "Yes ! "I shout. "Oh you do , "he smirks, "I guess the wedding is cancelled and our deal is not going through then, " "No , "I splutter and he looks at me with an amused look. "no , "I shake my head weakly, "I don't have a problem with that." Of course I have a problem with that! My sister isn't even here yet and I'm getting married to someone else .This is too much for me to handle. My sister will flip when she finds out that I'm getting married to Jason . My mother too! "As soon as the doctor gives the go ahead of your discharge within two hours , we are getting married understood , "he speaks as he looks at his watch with a serious face. "Understood , "I answer back with a curt nod "I will talk to my beta and we I'll have you prepared for the ceremony, "he responds "Okay , "I whisper. I watch him turn his back on me and leave without saying goodbye. I release the long breath that I have been holding for a long time. It's may feel like relief but I have made the biggest mistake of my life .Annabelle My sister enters the room and looks at me with a worried look . I'm still in a lot of pain . The doctor couldn't allow me to leave but Jason still thought it was a good idea to have get married immediately. I argued with him and he agreed to wait for a few weeks. I look at the time on my wrists and it's only 8:30 am. What is going on? I think Jason is trying to test my nerves right now . Of course I may not be love with Jason but I need to get married to him. It's a life and death situation right now and to think that I'm in a full puffy wedding gown that my mum had forced me to wear i. I have sucked my stomach in for hours and to think I was just discharged from the hospital yesterday is what's killing me. Where the hell is he? "You need to calm down , "my sister speaks as she eyes me up and down like a lunatic. "Telling someone to calm down when they are completely through the roof has never worked ! " I answer back with a frown. "I can't believe you are getting
Annabelle pov Flash back "What is happening ? "I cough loudly as the smoke chokes me to death. The miracle fire that started at mid morning has sweeped through the entire pack house and now its approaching the forest. We call it the miracle fire because it basically has no source . It's like a wild fire! "Kane ! "I shout as I look around the foggy smoke that has risen up to the ceiling. The heat sweeps through the entire place and I feel like I'm dying . I can't leave without my twin brother. "Kane ! "I scream again as I hold my breath looking for him. I kick open the door and I almost die out of shock to see my brother lying unconscious on the floor with blood dripping from his chest . I almost lose my control when I see Jason standing just behind the body. My mouth quivers as no words can describe the feeling that I have . I drop my eyes on Jason and he looks at me with horror . I can't believe my best friend would lay a hand on my brother like that . I always thought th
Annabelle pov "So let me get this straight ,"my sister mumbles over the phone ,"He refuses to listen to you because he believes that he is the overall decision maker and being alpha gives him the right ? " "I believe so , "I answer slowly as I think of the best way to tell my sister that we are truly screwed. Honestly I never thought this through. I thought getting married to Jason would at least solve half of my problems but no it did not. Everybody hates him and now he wants my whole pack to move just after we got married! If someone was to tell me that I would be married to Jason the person that actually killed my twin brother . I would laugh in their face and call them an asshole because why I would get married to the person that is my total enemy. He might have straight sexy black hair and mesmerizing eyes that could make any woman drop to the ground but I can't forget the hurt that he left behind when he killed my twin brother . Not only that I just survived a car acciden
Annabelle pov The brunette woman holds her cheek soothingly like hot coal had just landed on her . I'm not one for violence but this woman had it coming for her . No matter what the gods whisper to me at this point I'm far from calm and collected. Her face contorts and twists to anger as she continues to touch her cheek. She looks at me with fire and rage in her eyes. "Did you just slap me ?! "she screams as her voice trembles. " I'm not -" I don't get to finish my last sentence when she also lands a hot slap on my cheek .My cheek tingles as the pain stings on my cheek . She grabs my hair and the excruciating pain travels down my whole body as I struggle to hold my head from being ripped off instantly. She pulls me like a ball stuck in a door and swings me like a base ball across the kitchen . She lets me go and my whole body propells and hits the corner of the wall. I scream loudly as my back hits the wall. My hair falls on my face as my whole body just slops down the flo
Annabelle pov . Jason's ability to leave whenever he has less to say amazes me and also angers me at the same time. I think oaf a fast retort before he even leaves my presence . I am not going to let him just leave like that. Even though I hate him so much. He is still my husband and I need to know why this crazy lady almost beat me up . Is she his mistress? "So that's your mistress? "I blurt out. I start to regret my decision of asking him .He immediately stops in his tracks and turns his back to look at me . His facial expression changes from calm to irritated. I was expecting this reaction anyway. I stand up from the high stool and start limping slowly towards him to empathize my question. He doesn't even understand that I am still his wife and he needs to respect me. "I am asking you a question , "I speak again as I come closer to him with a limp.
Anna pov "Ouch! " I scream as my eyebrows are being plucked mercilessly by Lana. I flinch away from her immediately the tweezers touch my skin. I'm not a make-up person and I thought by the looks of everything these girls had in their tiny little suitcase of cosmetics I would be in great hands but I was totally wrong. "I am really sorry, "Lana apologises and steps back with the tweezers in her hands. "It's okay, "I reply trying to hide the pain away from her ."I am very much fine. Just tone down a little. " "Alright, "she nods carefully and steps closer to finish doing my eyebrows. "So you are Jason's mate ? "she asks as she carefully tweezes my eyebrows this time. "No, he is not, "I simply answer with a deadpan look even though I'm completely taken off guard by her question. "But why are you two m
Annabelle pov Every part of my body wakes up as I hook my tiny arm into his bigger arm. I take the first tentative steps as I walk first. I almost fall and trip as we walk down the stairs together. Jason helps me balance just in time. Embarrassment is an understatement as I try to find my courage. "I am sorry. I'm not used -" "Just don't embarrass me in front of everybody at the pack house, "he cuts me off without looking at me. "I am not, "I reply agitated as I try to smoother my dress as we walk downstairs. The drive to the pack house doesn't take long because it is only a few kilometres away. Once we reach the pack house. My heart starts to pound quickly as I think of the pack members inside. Are they going to like me? Will they see the deceit in my eyes? My mind is whirling with so many questions as the anxiety in my entire body starts to rise. At this point, I wish I could just run away from this place and go back home. I wish could do this. This is the best time. "
Jason pov "What the fuck did you do ? "my wolf silently whispers as I watch her leave the main hall and walk silently outside. My wolf doesn't like the fact that Annabelle is being humiliated in front of everyone. He is so smitten with her it's hard to control him around her. He starts to push me so that we go and get her but I forbid him to do it. "Jace! No! "I warn my wolf even though I also want to go to her and make sure she is okay. "What the fuck are you thinking? She is upset. I can feel her displeasure, "he whines in an angry tone. I don't think now is the time to start chasing after her. Her sad face just shows that she does not want me anywhere near her. I don't even think she would delighted to see me after my mistress just humiliated her. "I can see that you don't want to chase her asshole! " Jace snarls at me. "No, "I growl trying to keep him under contr
