Broken Mate

Chapter 8

Lea’s POV

The words circulate through my head time and time again. “This pack is going to be destroyed with that weak little attention seeker.” Each time I think about this, a new bout of tears flood free from their confines. I try my best to keep them in, hoping, praying that Alpha Caleb cannot hear how weak I am being. The first comment I receive in my new pack and I’m already a pitiful mess. I cannot believe how I am acting. I need to pull myself together and go out and clean before he gets rid of me back to Dealthlynoon Pack. I would do anything to stay away from there. The nightmares still haunt me and every minute I feel like I will wake up and be back there in that hellhole.

I slowly get up from my spot on the floor in the bathroom and wash my face. My eyes are red and puffy. The bloodshot look only adding to the truth about just how exhausted I am. I crawl silently to the door and listen holding my breath. I can hear the sound of breathing from the other side and remember how Alpha Caleb had been calling out to me about half an hour ago. Would it be him there? No, I chastise myself. Why would an Alpha spend half an hour waiting outside an omega pack slaves door just because I was crying.

In fear of it being someone else I crept into bed, fighting my haunting fears and all the thoughts swirling through my mind until I finally drifted into a restless sleep. “Wake up. Lea wake up. We need to investigate. I can sense something unusual.” My wolf Kiara nudged me out of my unconscious state through our bond. Finally she was back! What is happening Kiara? “I think our there is someone important to us in this pack!” She yipped excitedly. She wasn’t back to full strength but if she could sense that, that means that they were close. Letting my eyes change to their deeper bluey green colour of Kiara, I let her guide me towards my them. I was shaking inside. Who could it be? I already had my mate. I was marked and mated by him the same as all the other girls in the pack so who else could be important to me like that? With unease flowing through me, I opened the door…

Alpha Caleb was lying against the wall beside the door and with the sound of it opening, he shot awake and glanced up at me. My wolfs eyes grew brighter when she stared at him and he quietly mumbled mate his wolf’s eyes shining through his, at the same time Kiara yelled Mate!

I stumbled back confused. He couldn’t be my mate. I had a mate. And if he was, he would reject me without a second’s thought. I was a used and beaten omega slave. I was not fit to be another Alphas mate. Alphas are the harshest and cruellest of them all. They use you and beat you with their strength. With that thought on my mind I sprinted out of there as fast as my legs would carry me.

Caleb’s POV

The smell of mango and coconut grew stronger by the second in my dreamlike state before I was jolted awake with a click and footsteps near my mate’s room. I looked up, ready to protect her from any more harm before I connected eyes with my mate. Except I stared right into her wolf’s instead of hers. Mate, we said at the same time, my wolf pushing forward to see her in all her glory now with her wolf in tow. I was so happy and about to take her into my arms before she hightailed it out of the room. I stood shocked for a second before I realised what had happened and chased down my mate. 

With my increased speed and hers still increasing with the new presence of her wolf returning, I caught up to her quickly, wrapping my arms around her. Tingles immediately spread everywhere our skin connected and the feeling had my heart racing and my wolf howling in pleasure. I felt her shudder as we connected and know she finally felt it too. A warm droplet shock me out of my thoughts as it hit my arm. I looked down to see her crying. Gently I lifted her chin up, her beautiful blue eyes staring into my brown ones. “My precious mate,” I gently murmured to her before she shook her head. A low growl escaped at her denial of being my mate. “I have a mate already. I have been mated for many years.” She whimpered with an ashamed and confused tone. I gently trailed my finger along her arm, tingles trailed along and she closed her eyes. “Do you feel that love? That’s one of the signs of a true mate. That other ‘guy’ chose you as his chosen mate and never treated you like a mate should be due to him not being your mate or loving you.” I ground out. The thought of that douchebag instantly, making me tense ready for a fight.

“I..I don’t understand. That’s how all the mates were in my pack. We were all told that the guys would choose their mates and that we were theirs to do whatever we were told to do.” She forced out with a fearful gaze.

I shook, my wolf and I both wanting to go back and finish ripping that pack to shreads and saving all the shewolves from their demise. Gently I lowered my nose to her neck, breathing in her heavenly scent and calming down my wolf and I. Looking direnctly into her eyes I promised “I will get revenge for the way you were treated my perfect mate.” Glancing out the window I mindlinked my warriours. “There is a storm brewing, get ready.”
