The Wanted Pet

Caelyn

I fell asleep pretty quickly last night I guess I was still rattled Xander came in and didn't say anything just pulled me into him and that's the last thing I remember.

He clearly drugs me I should be annoyed but instead, I'm grateful means I don't have nightmares, means I won't spend the whole night tossing and turning worried about the web of lies I have been caught in, worried about what Xander will do when he finds the truth, being consumed with guilt knowing his finally ready to love me and I'm hiding things from him, it breaks my heart and I hate myself for it.

I jump slightly when I feel a hand on my back as I roll over meeting his bright green eyes "You know I can't drug you forever, you might become a drug addict or something" he chuckles just stroking my hair.

"What do you even use," I say

"I have no idea but hey you're still alive" he chuckles

"That gives me confidence Xander," I say

"I spoke with Darcy he won't hurt you, it just means I need to spend more time with him, he's just a bit jealous, we use to spend heaps of time together then I got occupied with you," he says

"I'm sorry" I say, I know it isn't just jealousy I don't know much about seekers but it's obvious he can tell I'm not normal and I'm starting to worry that everyone is right, I have a hunter after me, I have whatever the hell Koby is after me if I was just an everyday girl that wouldn't be the case, I'm something and that scares me, but I'm too scared to confide in Xander, not that I physically can.

A part of me is tempted to go to Darcy and give him some of my blood but that could end up in my death will end up in Xander's betrayal and I betrayed him enough I can't do it again "This isn't your fault" he says softly just leaning over me as he just brings his lips to mine as I just kiss back, we shouldn't be like this we started our time together hating each other, he was tormenting me now I can forgive all that, maybe we are Romeo and Juliet or Beauty and the beats it's laughable now admitting it, knowing that I do have feelings for him.

But for how long?

When he finds out I have been lying to him, he will hate me and I have kept this secret for far too long I can't just break it to him now, as long as he doesn't find out but he will eventually wont he, Koby said he will get me eventually and that it's either the easy way or hard way and I chose the hard way, he pulls apart.

"Are you alright?" he says

"Yeah I just feel guilt that's all," I say he stares at me for a second

"I told you this isn't your fault you don't choose how much I annoy you," he says

"I mean I wouldn't mind some alone time," I say

"Don't push it you're still my pet, I can't have my other clan members know, I can't have outsiders know, our clan is vever very tight and if some members realise our relationship might be a threat they will nullify that and that means try to take you away?" he says

"I like being your pet it's weird but I don't know I sort of like being waited on," I say as a smirk appears on his lips

"See that's the way" he smirks just stroking my chin

"And I'm still a what to you" I stutter

"Your my toy, I won't hurt you as much unless you deserve it but I know you have learnt to be obedient," he says I guess it isn't going to be the perfect relationship I don't even know if I'm ready, it's dangerous falling in love in a world like this he just climbs on top of me as I let him and he just leans to my ear.
