Lupita - The Beginning

Chapter 28

"May...who's May asked Jason" Tash Jabbed him in the ribs and growled.

Mercy laughed "it's ok Jason, May was my mate, she was also a wolf, she was an omega in a pack a couple of towns away, she was visiting her auntie and was walking through the forest when we literally bumped into each other" she giggled

"we were both walking with our heads down, I was trying to find a special herb and she was trying to follow the path through the forest, as soon as our eyes met she growled and said "Mine" it took all of a couple of seconds for us to mate fully and we were wrapped up in our own little cocoon for a couple of days" Blue, Tash, Emily and even Jason sighed at her words.

She chuckled "I moved to her village, I knew that Merida would not understand, I saw how she was when Mary found Justin, I couldn't go through that and I certainly didn't want to put May through it, so I got a place with their village healer and we moved into a little thatched cottage, with a beautiful garden, we had all types of flowers growing in the front and herbs, fruits and vegetables were grown at the back of the cottage, we even had an orchard, on starry nights we would go and sit underneath the apple and pear trees and just stare at the sky, just me and her, wrapped in each other's arms....." she stopped and tears fell from her eyes, Emily hugged her and Tash and Jason were holding each other as Blue squeezed her Aunties hands.

"what happened to her Mercy" Emily softly said

Mercy cleared her throat, "May had gone out to the forest as she wanted to gather some camomile to make tea, she knew I loved her camomile and honey tea, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my chest, I knew it was her, I tore through the village and into the forest screaming her name, I came to a clearing and there she was, she was lying on the floor with a silver dagger coming out of her chest, Merida was standing over her, she turned and flashed a wicked smile at me, I lost it, my powers came out I tore the forest apart, but I couldn't bring myself to kill her, I had Merida by the throat and I was about to snap her neck, but her eyes, the fear in them I just couldn't......" she paused she tried to slow her breathing down as she was getting worked up.

Emily was rubbing circles in Mercy's back trying to sooth her.

"thanks Emily" she took a deep breath and continue, "I couldn't kill her even after she had killed my love, my mate, I just couldn't, so I did the next best thing I banished her, I banished her to the hole you were taken to, she cannot leave their, that is why she sends her rogues, how she's controlling them I do not know, rogues are hard to control, but she's got an army surrounding her, doing all her dirty work, I made sure that I had a way in and out so that I could watch over her and make sure she wasn't harming anyone innocent......again" she sighed.

"I'm so sorry Auntie, you must miss her very much" Blue squeezed Mercy's hands again.

"I do, but I'm lucky, because I'm not half or a full wolf I didn't feel the pain as much, some wolves die or go mad when their mate die's" she looked around the table and smiled "we need to go as soon as possible, can we all be ready by tomorrow morning?"

"Tomorrow morning......" Blue looked at her Auntie "that doesn't give me enough time"

"why what do you need to do??" questioned Tash

"ermmmm well it's the rather small business of getting my mate to mark me, how the hell I am going to do that before tomorrow morning" she huffed and laid her head on the table, Jason stroked her hair.

"you can't love" Mercy looked at Blue who shot her head up to meet her Aunties eyes, "I'm sorry, but we don't have time, you need to reject him" everyone gasped.

"no she can't, you don't understand the pain she will be in.." Jason pleaded with Mercy "she can't"

"I agree with Jason, she can't, she fought so hard for him to be her mate, WHAT THE HELL MERCY..." Tash was getting angry, why would Mercy, Blue's Auntie say such a thing, something that would bring so much pain to Blue her own niece.

"I say this because you can't leave him without marking each other, I'm surprised you've lasted this long, you will both die if you leave and he doesn't seem to give a damn..." Blue interrupted

"you don't know that, he might care about me I know his wolf does" she sniffed

"Obviously not enough to mark you" she raised an eyebrow "you can get it over and done with tonight and then you can heal as we travel, you may even find your second chance mate" she smiled

Blue shot up "I DON'T WANT A SECOND CHANCE MATE...I WANT HIM, YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DO THIS" with tears in her eyes she ran out of the canteen with Jason trailing behind her.

"well if that doesn't work then I don't know what else I can do" Mercy threw her hands up in the air.

"oh my god you did that so she would realise that she wanted Hunter, but Mercy she already knew that she did, she's been trying and he's been horrid to her.." Mercy interrupted Tash

"but HE hasn't seen her upset before, he hasn't seen the softer side of Blue, just the fighter, the one who is forcing him to mate with her, the witch" Mercy looked at Tash

Suddenly both Emily and Tash smiled "he's out there isn't he" said Emily

"yup" Mercy winked at both the girls

"well let's see what he does now" laughed Tash
