I've never been a fan of flying. Unnecessary heights and thrilling trips have never attracted me. And that wasn't the case for me now either.
I don't know how long I lay passed out in that van of hell. For days? Weeks? But probably just a few hours before we reached the private airport where I was pushed into a larger private jet.
My body tremored from stress, fear, and pain. Because everything hurt. My body... My soul... Reed abandoned me. He let these strange shifters take me from him and keep me from my family and pack. He voluntarily backed away!
"As your alpha, do you trust me?"
My eyes welled up again as I thought back to his words, as I once again saw his meaningful look in front of me. His eyes so honey golden that I could never doubt him. How he, like me, was tormented by the fact how we... We would be separated from each other.
And not a trace of malice or nonchalance in his expression. I did trust him because Reed is my mate. He is my alpha, and he owns my heart.
"Calm down son and look out at the beautiful view instead!" I flinched from Thor's words, throwing him a fast glance. "You'll be home soon, isn't that exciting?"
Finding out how I inherited my sarcasm from that haughty man didn't make things better. I just looked away from him, huddling in my seat pressed against the wall as far from him as possible.
I turned my back at the cabin, trying to shut out the world. I couldn't run, I couldn't flee... But at least I could try and pretend how they didn't exist.
"You will see that after the ring of alphas and when you have settled in with the Fangs, you will adapt. Buck is a strong and powerful alpha; it is an honour for you to be claimed by him."
Even though I wanted to glare at him, I couldn't keep my facade up. It was no use hiding my feelings. I just shivered, sobbing.
"I have a mate."
"No, Ryan. Well, not yet at least."
"I am already claimed!" I hissed, sobbing louder.
"It isn't completed."
"It sure is. I was there."
"None from my noble bloodline will let a Hook breed her, or him in this case."
"Now I can't get pregnant, can I?"
"Okay to put it in human words since you haven't developed a shifter's mind, sadly. No Hook will ever fuck my son." I hugged myself, letting tears drop down my cheeks. "The Hooks are not good for you and it's lucky Buck found you kept hidden with them, right darling?" Thor looked at his mate.
"Indeed alpha," she said.
I chose not to argue with them any further because they would never listen to what I said anyway. They didn't care about me; they just didn't want to see me in the hands of Reed.Somehow it must have pissed off both packs, the Fangs and the Royals. I knew my pack was powerful, one of the three biggest in the US so I assume these two are the others. Maybe they saw Reed as a threat?
It was still a small consolation how they weren't allowed to touch me in any harmful way. Reed said so. No one can cause me harm and just by touching me they harm me! But when we finally landed in a very rainy Seattle they had to force me off the plane.
Same two men as back home carried me down the flight stairs and away to a van as shiny as the previous one. It was dark, probably late in the evening and what little I could see was heavy traffic on the road.
It was another several hours long drive squeezed between strange and scary shifters in an unfamiliar car.
As the road narrowed and was edged by thicker and thicker woods I wondered if we were anywhere near Forks where I was found as a baby. Did they throw me away close to their territory?
