” Why did you go out without telling me? You had me worried when I couldn’t find you, I also discovered you left your phone here in the room,”
Liam says while I lay in his arms, My thighs ached from being stretched with his spreader bar; which he called his toy, I leaned more into his embrace wanting his warmth, he sounded worried.
” I merely wanted some fresh air, Liam, that’s all. I’m sorry if got you bothered with my actions,” I explain to my concerned mate,
” Baby, I am not stopping you from going out, you have your mind and all, but I do not like it when you disappear on me like that, You can at least leave a message,” Liam explains,
Well, he was right I could leave a message, but how could I leave one when I stomped out of the pack house, the words I heard hurt me, I never wanted any of this. Their goddess chose me, and now I’m just going to hear them insult and put me down?
” I’m sorry next time I promise to let you know about my outings,” I tell him with a smile on my face, trying my best to convince him that everything was fine.
But Liam did not seem to buy it, as his eyes roamed my face curiously, which got me nervous, “Macy are you hiding something from me?” Liam speaks out, making me tense.
” No, I am not, why would you think that?” I asked with my heart racing.
Liam lifts my head to meet his piercing gaze, his eyes searched mine curiously, “Baby you know marking you comes with a few advantages; Rage and I can feel your emotions even from a hundred miles apart, which means I can feel you, and your emotions right now,”
I gulp hard at his outburst which was news to me, I did not know of that. ” So, what do you feel?” I ask in a whisper,
” Fear,” Liam states undoubtedly, I shift my gaze away from him, Liam was right, I was scared. Fear of what I heard happening, what if a war came, how on earth do I help? I know nothing about fights, I do not have a wolf or extraordinary strength to help in any way. In reality, I was useless to this pack and useless to Liam too.
” Macy, what is it?” Liam questions this time with concern shown all over his face, I shook my head with tears threatening to fall from my eyes, before moving away from him, I came down from the bed and proceeded to the window.
Immediately, my mate moved in my direction, and my skin shudders the moment his arms wrap around me igniting the sparks which I still haven’t gotten used to feeling. He pulls me to face him, his eyes searching mine, I could no longer hold it and at that point I burst into tears.
Liam held my shaking body as I sobbed, my face on his chest as tears gushed out of my eyes, and soaked his shirt.
” I’m sorry I cannot be of any assistance to you or this pack,” I let out in between sobs,
” Why would you say that, Baby?” Liam asks with wide eyes, he pulled my head up, so our eyes would meet.
” It is the truth, Liam, I am really of no help here, I would never be able to assist you when there is need,” I speak out with tears still streaming down my face. Liam simply looks agape at my words,
” Who told you these words?” Liam questions his countenance beginning to change, I pulled myself out of his hold, walked away from him back to the bed,
” Nobody said anything to me, I just thought so,” I lied to him, with my back turned away.
Liam walks up to me again, this time he looked and sounded pissed, “Did you hear anything?” he asked, I pursed my lips in a thin line without uttering a word back to him, “You did didn’t you?”
” Liam it does not matter whether I heard a thing or not, it still does not change the fact that I am useless to you and to this pack!” I yelled at him,
” Macy, The goddess hand-picked you and me for a reason, I might not know what that is, nevertheless I believe you are not a mistake. The moon goddess knew fully well about you being human and still chose you for me, so do not repeat those words again, you are and can never be useless, Macy.” Liam tells me with pain in his eyes, it was evident my mate was upset with my words, but could he blame me for feeling this way?
” If only you had stayed a few seconds more to hear my response, without rushing out like that,” Liam murmured, his eyes showing nothing but hurt.
” I’m sorry I…I just could not bear the pain of those words,” I stutter as tears pull up my eyes once more,
Liam yanks me in for a hug, one which I gladly accept and return. ” No one can make you feel less of yourself, Macy, I would never allow that, and you won’t let that happen either.” his words made me smile as I lean closer into his embrace.
” Teach me how to fight, Liam,” I mutter, Liam instantly looks down at me with a shocked expression,
” You want to learn how to fight?” he questions curiously acting as if he misheard my words,
” Yes, I am eager to learn, I might not be a werewolf, but that does not mean I shouldn’t learn normal hand-to-hand combat, Liam I know how funny this may sound, but I am ready.” I state with confidence,
” But Macy…” Liam tries to explain,
” I have made my decision, Liam, you either help me become stronger or I’ll go out there and find someone else to teach me,” I speak out, cutting him off from whatever he wanted to say,
Liam stares at me stupefied at my words, his expression screamed unbelievable! Making me roll my eyes at him, “Liam did you hear me?” I say, bringing him out of his shock,
” Are you serious about this?” He inquires as he stares deeply into my eyes,
” I have never been so sure in my life, Liam, I want to do this, I need to do this!”
Liam smiles excitedly at my answer, in a second my feet left the floor, and I am being lifted in the air, “Liam! Put me down!” I screamed as my mate carries me up in his arms,
” I have never been so happy to train a woman in my life, Baby, trust me you are going to have the best trainer you could ever wish for,” Liam mutters excitedly with me still in his arms,
My laughs, and giggles could be heard miles away as Liam swing me in his arms, seemed like my decision has brought so much joy and happiness to him.
Liam’s POV
The next day, Greg and I had to visit the cellars to pay an old friend a visit. The stench of this place hit my nose the moment we got in,
We passed by cells that held traitors and enemies, some retreated to the darkest part of their while others screamed and begged for their lives to be spared.
Finally, we arrived at a cell, I retrieved the keys from Greg and unlocked the cell gate myself. Entering the cell, my eyes searched for a second before landing on her silhouette lying on the tiny bed provided for her.
” I knew you would come for me, see you can never live without me, Liam, just as I cannot live without you either,” she mutters like the crazy woman that she is.
” Stop dreaming Claudia because even in your dreams I would never want the likes of you in my life,” I tell her with anger laced in my voice,
She stands on her feet and tries to move toward me but is held back by the chains on her hands, that are connected to the cell wall. ” I have missed you so much, Liam, every bit of me wants you back, to experience all the wild things you used to do to me, please!” she yells her last words like a maniac,
” You are going to face trial for trying to humiliate my mate on her special day, Claudia, If it were up to me, you would be dead right now.” I explained to the deranged woman in from of me,
” She is not good for you, Liam, can’t you see, she is leading you on, she is not the one for you,” Claudia yells,
” So who is then, You?” I questioned with a raised brow,
” Yes, I am the only one for you, my love, I am strong, fast, and beautiful, with me, you’ll have strong pups,”
I smirked evilly at her words, “You have truly gone mad,” I say to her, before leaving her cell, Claudia screams my name, as I walk out of the cellar with Greg behind me.
” Fasten up with fixing the date for her trial, I want her out and gone off our lives for good,” My voice comes out with anger as I order my Beta.
” On it Alpha,” he responds.
I had some emails to reply, so I proceeded to my office, a few minutes into work my phone rings out loud, and I answered the phone after seeing the caller.
” Lincoln,” I responded but his next words made me stand on my feet my demeanor instantly changing,
