Ari's Reverse Harlem Part 2

Chapter 18 Ari

Trigger Warning

"No... please don't do this." I shake my head, bringing my hands up to prevent him from lying down on me. He grabs my arms, snatching them away from his chest, pulling them above my head. He lowers his mouth down to the crease of my neck, inhaling deeply. He nibbles slightly "I can't wait to have my mark right here."

"Stop. Please. I don't want this. You're not my mate." I cried out

"But I can be. I can be good to you, Marie... or should I say Ari?" He chuckles "You just have to give me a chance. We can do this the easy way" He takes one of his hands, brushing it down my face, until his hand is wrapping around my throat. "Or we can do this the hard way. At this point, I don't know which one, I would prefer more."

I'm no longer able to keep the sobs from leaving my lips. I start trembling as my apparent future unfolds in front of me. "Aww baby please don't cry." He begins to lick my tears away, as they begin to run freely down my face. I cry out even harder, to the point I can almost not breathe. The sounds coming through my throat is a mixture between a squeal and a whimper.

"Please stop. Don't do this. It's not right. You don't have to do this." I beg, attempting to reach out to my wolf, again in vain.

"That's where you're wrong, beautiful. I have to do this, it's my destiny." He whispers against my ears. He sits back on his haunches, pulling his shirt over his head. Reaching forward ripping my dress open down the center. I desperately attempt to prevent this action by covering myself but to no avail.

His hand quickly finds my throat and gives it a little squeeze. Not enough to hurt but enough to deliver a warning of what is to come if I don't behave.

"Please." I manage to get out, in between my shaky breath. I think my prayers are answered when he gets off the bed, but reality slaps me in the face, when I realize he only did that to remove his pants.

I use all my energy to sit up and get off the bed. I barely have my feet on the ground before I feel an extreme pain at the back of my head. Jamie has grabbed a handful of my hair, yanking me backwards towards him. I let out an ear-piercing scream.

I'm surprised my head is still attached to my shoulders, from the amount of force he used. "Ah, I see you opted for the hard way. I will gladly accommodate you."

I feel the ground begin to shake. Even though at this exact moment, I'm not quite sure if it's my whole-body sobbing that's causing me to feel this way or the actual ground shaking.

Jamie stills next to me, turning me around to look into my eyes. "It's not possible for the wolfbane to wear off this soon. How are you doing this?"

I would love to take credit for this but I've been constantly trying to reach out to my wolf with no luck. I can only continue to send out prayers to the moon goddess, to save me from this nightmare.

When the side of the house suddenly crumbles to the ground and I see Square and Edison standing behind the debris. I can't keep the flood of emotions at bay any longer. I feel like I'm crying out even harder than before, if possible.

"Impossible. I have a cloaking spell over this whole place. There's no way you should have been able to find us, let alone break through here." Jamie spits out, grabbing me, pulling me closer to his body.

"There's no spell that can keep Marie away from me." Square...I mean Seth growls out. I don't even recognize his voice, as he hovers over the debris, floating towards us. "WE are one, she is MY mate, I could follow her to the ends of the Earth. There was no place you could ever hide her from me."

"You shouldn't have come here. You should've stayed hidden in your little shelter. Especially since you and your family are traitors against your own kind." Jamie sneers
