“He heard that”, crap! ! I forgot to block him!! He takes a step towards me. I flinch when I hear him come closer. I look at him through my blurry eyes…
“P-please 1-leave me a-alone.” I whimper.
I hear him sigh then take a step back, “Just follow my scent when your ready to come back.” He says, as he walks in the house.
I don’t look at him, I can’t. His red eyes that are forever imprinted in my mind scare me too much. I just nod and wipe
my tears from my eyes. I wince when I come to the gashes.
I listen to his foot steps grow fainter until I could no longer hear them. I look around to see if he is gone. Very cautiously, I stand up and sniff the hair. He’s gone.
I limp in the other direction of where Leo went. When he jumped on me he snapped my ankle in the process. Luckily, being a werewolf, I heal extraordinarily fast. But I won’t fully heal for a few more hours.
I find a small clearing and lay down beside of a large rock. The cold nips at my body. I start to shiver. Quickly, I curl up in a ball and close my eyes.
“You’re okay. You’re okay Mira..” I whisper to myself.
“You’ve gone t-through w-worse. It’s g-gonna b-be a-alright Mira.” I sob.
My sobs start and don’t let up. I lay there gasping for breath as I cry my eyes out. Not wanting to goon, I stand up and limp towards the large creek. Im not gonna be a part of this pack the killed my family.
I find the creek, ” I’m s-sorry Daddy , I tried. I tried so h-hard. But I-I can’t love the t-thing that t-took you away f-from m-me.” I cry.
“I love you.”then I jump.
The sudden cold makes me flinch. I feel myself sinking deeper and deeper by the second. I let myself breathe in a gulp of water then another. Darkness then takes over.
Im in my old territory with my pack waiting for me at my house. I see my father at the door waving to me. I wave back and smile. I’m home!! I start running towards them, longing to be held by my Daddy again and to joke with my brother. I see my mother appear beside of my Dad, her apron on as she hugs George..
I run faster. which makes My lungs burn, “Mom! Dad! I’m here! I’m here!” I yell. Suddenly the ground I am running on falls out from under me. I plummet into darkness. My skin feels icy cold and my chest is throbbing.”Mira! Breathe Mira! Breathe!” A male voice pleads. I ignored it, trying to get to my family.
His voice becomes clearer and then I notice my lungs feel like they are on fire!!!! My eyes shoot open and I cough up all the water I inhaled a little while ago. I suck in as much air as I possibly could. Air is the best!!
“Mira…It’s okay… Just breathe.” The husky voice says. I look at the tall figure before me. His icy blue eyes says it all…
Leo.
I sit up and cough more water out of my lungs. Whoever said drowning was the most peaceful way to go, they were wrong!!! I’m going to kill whoever came up with that theory!!! I suddenly feel two strong arms wrap around me. Instead of fighting them, I fall into them.
“I thought I lost you.” Leo whispers.
I could tell he was crying by his stuffy nose and hoarse voice. The thought of a strong alpha like Leo crying seems impossible. I bury my face in his chest to get warmer.
“I’m sorry.” I croak.
He holds me tighter and kisses my forehead. My body shivers from the kiss he innocently placed on my forehead.
Don’t you ever do anything like that again!” he yells.
I flinch at his angry words. A stray tear runs down my cheek as I look up at his icy blue eyes. He stares back at me and wipes the tear away from my cheek,
“Promise me you won’t do anything like that again.
Promise me.” He pleads.
“I promise.” I say.
I snuggle up to his chest as he lifts me from the ground. The beating of his heart soon puts me to sleep. Sleeping in his arms feels safe, like nothing in this world could ever hurt me. The only other time I felt like this was with my Dad.
I can almost smell my Dad’s scent up against me, cradling me tightly. I can almost feel his warm breath on my face, making me feel safe. I can almost hear his soothing words in my ear, telling me it will be alright.
It’s been four weeks and two days since I was kidnapped by the Blood Moon pack. I still hate it here and want nothing more than to escape. But something is keeping me here, something I can’t fight. Love.
He comes and checks on me every few hours and we talk for a while until he has to get back to his alpha duties. Probably just checks on me to make sure I won’t do anything stupid. But I can’t shake the feeling he looks forward to seeing me. I smile at the thought of him actually wanting to get to know me. But that’s probably not the case.
I sit on my king size bed and watching some funny videos with my new iPhone Leo bought me, I was laughing so hard to them when I suddenly hear the door creak open. I pause my video and look up to see Leo. He’s sweaty from training, like he is everyday. I give him a pouty face and curl up in a ball.
“When will you let me train?” I pout.
He chuckles and walks over to me. He plays with a strand of my hair and looks into my eyes. He leans in close to my ear. My heart rate picks up, hoping he will say ‘soon’. His breath tickles my ear.
“When I’m picking carrots with a stepladder.” He whispers.
I quickly pull away and groan. I roll to the other side of the bed and jump out. I speed walk to walk to the door but am stopped by a very muscular. I roll my eyes and turn my back to him.
