Harry growled still anger at Alistair for locking me away, he was pacing back and forth. "How dare he," he muttered for the billionth time. I'd gotten over Alistair locking me up, he was only doing it to protect me and what worried me more was the presence of the residue. The way Alistair looked at me when he said it worried me the most, there was something else he wasn't saying but I trusted him enough not to ask.
"Harry will you please sit down, he did it because he cares. You know that," I pleaded.
Harry shot me a look I did not like and growled full of anger "you are mine he shouldn't touch you!" Raising an eyebrow I stood up and without another word stormed out. As I opened the front door I heard him calling for me "wait I didn't mean..." I didn't wait for an explanation.
Walking onto the London street turning left I pulled out my phone. The only person I thought to call was Daniel, not that I wanted to go to the pack house but going back to base didn't feel like an option either. Pressing on Daniel's number I put my phone to my ear waiting for him to pick up. "Hello?" Daniel picked up.
"Hey any chance you can pick me up from Harry's place?" I hoped he wouldn't ask why.
"Sure give me ten minutes," he hung up. I always got the sense Daniel could read between the lines even over the phone.
Five or so minutes passed and I decided to ring Alistair, I'd felt awful for how Harry had acted towards him. I was just about to click on his number when Harry came out. With his hands out towards me he walked over "please I am sorry."
Putting a hand up to quiet him I replied looking down the road, "I honestly don't care if you're sorry." He knew he'd stepped over the line. Before he could speak again I continued "Alistair had spent my entire life protecting me, he'd never do anything to hurt me. I want you to trust him but obviously you can't and never will. You need to realise I don't exist to be yours."  Looking past him I saw Daniel's car coming down the street, "if you don't mind I'm gonna stay elsewhere tonight." The car stopped in front of us and I didn't hesitate getting in.
"Amy please I'm sor...."
Raising an eyebrow Daniel drove off leaving Harry on the pavement in mid sentence. After a few moments of silence I muttered "asshole" earning a chuckle from Daniel.
"Should I ask?" He turned off the stereo.
"Harry being possessive," looking down at my hands I could see them visibly shaking. "What is wrong with me?"
"Did he yell at you? Anything like that?" Daniel asked with concern in his voice. I nodded tucking my hands under my legs so they'd stop shaking. "Okay when we get the house you're gonna go have a hot bath, relax and I'll talk to Harry. He's got to realise this can't happen again." As the second to Harry, Daniel had every right to question anything Harry did. I knew Daniel despised anyone who made any woman feel exactly as I was right now. "Here we are."
