The She-Wolf in Hiding

9.) Trapped!

I awoke in a soft plush bed. I tried to stretch out all my sore muscles but then I realized I couldnt move my arms any further. I looked up to see my wrists tied to the bed posts. Does he really think that's going to work on me? Especially rope? Come on, im a werewolf for fu cks sake! This is just humiliating to know they think so low of me. Without a second thought i tore both my hands from the bed posts taking off the remaining rope that didn't tear as well. These childish people. I got up and walked to the built in bathroom. After using the toilet and washing my face, I looked in the mirror for a long time. What have I gotten myself into? He already said it. He said im his. All we need is for me to say it back and then the mating begins. I can't turn back. But do I want to? Why is it i had to be born like this? Why can't another female have been in my position? Why me? What did I do! I can't stay here. HE will find me and take out this pack easily. No one will be safe. I need them safe though. The whole point of me leaving and coming out so far, was to make a plan with packs. So we can strike back and free all the innocent girls. Take HIM down. But now im staring at myself actually realizing why I came so far. Just now realizing why I've been lying to every pack about my name and how I got here.

Im a coward.

With that last thought i scowled at myself in the mirror taking in my ugly complexion. My long blonde hair fell in tangles at my mid stomach. My tan skin had no shine and my eyes were dull. No emotions in them. The humans are going to look at me as pathetic for a female and that's the last thing I needed so with that thought i stripped and jumped into a blazing long needed hot shower. The water turned brown from all the dirt i had on me. Thoughts were swarming my brain like wild bees attracted to honey. The idea of a mate sickened me. I know HE will come and kill him in front of me. And he will make it slow, to watch me suffer longer. It s like HE feeds off others pain. I can't get close to Asher. I just can't.

After making my appearance more approachable looking, i opened the room door slowly trying to make no sound at all. I tip toed across the endless hallway and walked down the stairs to the smell of yummy waffles and pancakes! Who could resist such an argumental food group! I ran into the kitchen nearly knocking a lamp over to discover that there was a young looking woman standing over a stove with thousands of pancakes and waffles. I coughed politely catching her attention but instead she jumped up off the ground with fright and hit her hip on the counter. The hiss of pain made me walk over to her and touch the spot where it hurts. A small jolt from my fingers and her face went from pain and fear to shock. She no longer felt the pain because of a small power i had developed to heal. I havn't got the full concept but I can do small things like that. I havnt been focused on the power and more on the fighting skills. Her questioning gaze told me she wanted to ask how but was afraid. I put my finger to my lips and whispered, "lets keep this between us, okay sweet pea?" I asked in the sweetest voice I could muster. Which did not sound sweet at all. Her fear came back and she nodded her head quietly. "Uh. Um. Did you want breakfast?" She asked hesitantly while looking at the ground. Why was she so afraid of me? What did I do? "Yes, please. If it doesn't trouble you of course." Ugh I can't believe im acting so polite to this girl. Especially a human girl. Maybe it's because she reminds me of home. Well, home with the girls in the cells. I miss them. I regret everyday leaving them to fend for themselves. But I did what was best, right? My internal battle was put to a stop as soon and she set up the huge table for just little old me. I smiled great fully at her and dug in. The food sending my tastebuds through there own personal heaven.

It could have been the heavenly food, or relaxed composure of finally eating since yesterday, but for some reason... I didn't notice Asher walk in. And that was my first mistake.

My second mistake was grabbing my fork and throwing it at his head which he dodged with ease because let's face it. He is my mate and I can't hurt him. But he didn't need to know that. All he needed to know was i missed, but I didn't. The anger somehow doubled and he yanked me up by the arm with me screaming in protest. The screen door opened and we stepped outside. He slammed me down on the bench next to the lake leaving no room for an escape. But I didn't want to escape. I was to stubborn for that so instead a string of words flew through my mouth accusingly, "how dare you tie me to a bed!" My arm flew up before I knew what I was doing successfully leaving my mate in a shocked and confused state while rubbing the tender spot trying to believe what just happened. It must have finally hit him because then his eyes turned black and the anger returned. I stood my ground of course, not allowing him to see weakness from me. Weakness is a loss in any game. No matter what! The weak link always costs you the game. So that's exactly why I didn't show fear or any emotion for that matter. Just a smirk.

He turned around quickly taking deep breaths trying to calm himself but was not very successful. He turned back towards me with his brown eyes coming back. I thought he would have lashed out like HE used to. I thought he was going to hit me like so many times I had been before. I even expected a push to make me sit down. But what I did not expect was for the big dominate alpha Asher to get down on his knees holding my hands in his and his forehead meeting our hands in a bowed down position.

A simple, "im sorry." Leaving his mouth and causeing me to go speechless.
