How to Love a Human

Chapter 12

Bruno slept with me that night, right in the bed. Even though Rhemington said he didn't want fur in the bed. He's a wolf, so I bet he has fur in his bed. Even though Bruno was asleep with me it didn't stop my nightmares.

Get your ass up off the floor stupid bitch. I didn't get up fast enough because I could feel my dad and his friends kicking me. Each blow making me weak. I just wanted to be left alone. "Whore, slut." That's all you are. Just like your mother.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

I wake up sobbing. I miss her. I miss the way her black hair bounced, and her full lips smiled, always with the whitest teeth. I miss her long lashes and green eyes and how when I got into trouble they would stare at me. She was never cruel. Thinking about her made me sob harder. Bruno's head is in my lap. And I'm trying to calm this anxiety when my door is busted down.

"What's Wrong princess? Who made you cry?" Rhemington says looking around.

"No one." I snap.

I'm not going to sit here and talk about my mother to him. He doesn't need to know my past. He don't really deserve it. Why so he can feel pitty for me? So he can use it against me like dad did? I think the fuck not. He don't need to know I was abused, he don't need to know anything about me, because once he gets used to me...he will get rid of me.

Rhemingtons POV

      One minute she was good. And then the next she was crying and snapping at me. I know she had family problems, from reading the note her dad sent to her. I wasn't born yesterday. But I'm going to pretend that I don't know anything. I said I was going to figure it out. But with the rouge problem I haven't gotten to it, and im defintely not going to push.

I mind link Mars and Lex and ask them to come to the office-

"She was having a nightmare and then when I asked her about it, she got angry." I explain to the boys the whole situation. They are the best advice I have. Mars lost his mate, Veronica; and is waiting for his second chance mate. I'm surprised it didn't kill him. But I swear the Moon goddess kept him here for me and his twin- Lex  hasn't found his mate yet, but I think it's coming soon. He swears to it.

"Well don't you think it's a little hypocritical  that she knows nothing about you, but you have to know everything about her?" Lex says.

"But she's MY mate. I NEED to know this kind of stuff."

"But have you really shown her that she can trust you" Mars says.

They were right, did I deserve it? Did I deserve her trust. I wasn't about to open up. So why should she?

But she needs too. She HAS too. What if we need to protect her. 

What did she need protected from?
