Unique Mate

~19~

~Ashley's POV~

I feel the comfort of sheets wrapped around my body and honestly I feel myself fall more and more into sleep but then the sudden moment of realization hit me. The more that I thought about it I didn't go to sleep in a bed or even pass out near one. My eyes flutter open and I let out a sigh of relief when a wake up and the sun is not in my eyes. The familiar scent roaming the room tells me that the room I'm in belongs to Adrian making my body fall into a state of ease. My eyes scan over the room in search of Adrian but I immediately realize that he's not with me.

I curl up into the pillow and cuddle it, taking in its softness that makes me want to fall deeper and deeper into the abyss of comfort. I can feel everything in me relax all at once which is the first time that's ever happened. As I'm about to fall asleep once again, I'm greeted by the sound of the bedroom door opening. My heavy eyes struggle to open to see who's entered but I finally  make out the Adrian's silhouette.

" Hey beautiful, how do you feel?" He asks kneeling down to my side of the bed. Now that he mentions it I have a empty feeling within me and I haven't heard anything from Trish or Alexis. I reach out to them but get no response.

" I don't know, I don't really remember what happened." I say honestly, I look in his eyes hoping to find the answer but all I can see is worry. I feel my heart drop into my stomach as he takes my hand in his.

"Ash...you rejected Conner as your mate after catching him with Tiffany..." As soon as the words leave his lips, I get a ringing in my ears, I could hear my heart beat slower and slower by the second. Now I could clearly hear Alexis in the back of my head crying harder. I look at them sitting in a dark corner Trish with her head on  Alexis's lap while Alexis buries her face in Trish's fur, crying her heart out. Trish was whimpering feeling the pain of Alexis.

"Are you ok?" Adrian's voice brings me back and everything came back to me. Tears formed in the corner of my eyes and my chest became heavy making it hard to breath in. Adrian is quick to get on the bed and hold me. After about 5 minutes and trying to wrap my head around the new information I snap, I start crying feeling hot tears stream down my face. Adrian pulls me tight to his chest and holds me, quietly hushing me like a mother to a crying baby. About 5-10 minutes have passed and I finally calm myself down, Adrian gently moves me and gets up, walking to the bathroom bringing back tissues for me. I quietly utter a thank you and  blow my nose, giving myself a headache in the process. My whole body feels numb and that sent a strike of fear through me, I sit up more cleaning off my face which I knew had tear streaks running down. My eyes become heavy and I lay down suppressing the tears that I can feel want to come out. I squeeze my eyes shut and try to take deep breaths and before I know it, I had fallen asleep.

~Conner's POV~

I lay on my bed trying to take in the empty feeling that was slowly making its way across my body. I had been crying for so long that my body felt drained from every muscle in me. I had completely drained myself. My vampire, Noah wasn't talking to me and I honestly couldn't blame him, I wouldn't want anything to do with me either. Ashley's words are racking my brain repeating over and over again not letting me forget them. Everytime they repeat in my head I can feel a piece of my heart break more and more but I can't even be upset about it because I caused it all, I was the reason this all happened.

The more I thought about it the more it pissed me off. How could I be so stupid? Why would I do that? What the fuck is wrong with me? I quickly stood to my feet and paced over to the wall across from my bed and walked back and forth from my bed to the wall feeling my anger grow more intense. Finally, I throw a punch at the wall. I feel the wall collapse under my punch, second later I can feel the warm embrace of my blood running down my fist. I pull my hand out of the wall and look at the damage. The wall now had a gaping hole that had some blood on it and I greet the pain that shoots its way into my hand. I turn around and walk to the window that was across the room and open it.

The cold air almost knocks me back but I stay firm, I grip the window and without thinking twice I jump out. I feel myself falling and enjoy it until my feet hit the ground. I look out into the forest and start running trying to clear my thoughts. I let my feet take me wherever they wanted to and I ran, feeling the air brush past me. I ran away like a coward and the more those thoughts came the faster I ran trying to run away from everything. I don't know how long I was running but I finally stopped when I made it to a cliff that overlooked miles of forest. Up here I could tell it was going to be dawn soon. I look back from where I just ran and wondered to myself. Why go back where I am not needed?

Snap!

My head whipped to the left where I heard the snap and I stiffen when I see my mothers cloaked figure standing in the shade of the trees.

" Hello Son."
