Head Over Heels

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

When I woke up, there was a tray full of food on the nightstand next to the bed. I hopped up onto my knees to see if the food was even worth getting up for. To put it simply, I'm lazy. Holy mother Jesus I never saw such a beautiful breakfast before! Yes food can be beautiful.

The tray ended up having anything and everything I would ever want to eat for breakfast. It included scrambled eggs,french toast,cereal, fruit, and bacon. A lot of bacon I might add.

I scarfed most of it down in less than three minutes. I hadn't noticed I was so hungry until I tasted the food. I guess the only thing I'd eaten before this was a piece of toast. That was two days ago. I think.

I just sat there wondering how everything had changed so quickly in such a short amount of time. Once I was finished wasting away the minutes, I stood up and padded towards the doors that led to the balcony. Astonishingly, the doors were locked,yet I couldn't see a lock and the handles had been removed. Did I sleep through that? The one thing I actually liked about this place was the view and fresh air. I like the room but there is nothing to do or look at.

I decided to just lay on the floor and look up at the ceiling. A headache was starting to form in the back of my head. It was painful and I needed a distraction. I went over numbers 1-100, the alphabet, and every song I could remember. It must have taken over four hours to do this but nothing happened. I was getting so fed up with this place and the people. They can't just lock me up and give me nothing to do. Who do they think they are to send me someone to tease me with information? Not to mention my wolf was nagging me to get out.

The bed squeaked when i flopped sown on it and closed my eyes. I dreamt of home and what it would be like to live like a normal pack again. My daydream was interupted by another knock on the door.

I ignored the knock. It was irritating enough to have to be here, but to see someone who can walk so easily in and out of this room just made me angry. The pain in the back of my head tripled in a second and I muttered out a yelp. It was so sudden and it hurt like hell. Then I remembered I shut out the pack link because I thought there was no one nearby. Seems that I was wrong because it was Dalton trying to mind link me the whole time.

'Where have you been?! I tried contacting you for hours. I had to warn you that the alpha has me in the prison. Where are you? Nevermind that right now. The alpha said he was on his way to meet you. I swear he's crazy! Be careful because he had no trouble smacking one of the pack members earlier and she was female. He has serious anger issues so watch yoursrlf! Gotta go, link me later.' With all of that said, I didn't know how to feel.

Dalton just warned me about the ruthless alpha on his way to meet me and I think he's at the door which I refused to open. Great job on really thinking this through Kat! Anyways, no big deal. I can just pretend to be asleep amd he'll have to go away. Sadly, my genius idea didn't work according to plan. My ears perked up when I heard the door open and then close after a few light footsteps. I knew the alpha was in the room with me which was not the best circumstance based on his reputation. I could feel the power he radiated even though I was of beta blood. I made the mistake to move my hand and ever so slightly try to peek at him. I should've known he would notice.

"I'm sorry, did I wake you?" He asked sounding genuinly concerned.

There was no more pretending so I decided to just sit up and open my eyes. Anything I would've said to him was gone as my mind went blank. I took in his appearence which was not too shabby. Yet somehow he looked familiar. I couldn't even find it in me to say anything so I just ended up nodding my head. That just made him laugh at me which I did not take too well. Now I remebered everything I had thought of telling him and all the pain he has caused me.

"How dare you attack my pack and then kidnap me! You killed hundreds of people including my family and friends. You've done it before too based on the tories I've heard. How do you live with yourself, knowing all the bad thing you've done?" I may have ranted but it was worth the feeling of content that settled in the silence I caused.

He suddenly took a tiny breath of air in before he ruined every thought, feeling, and emotion I had felt and said before."You tell yourself you did the right thing.If you say it often enough, someday you might believe it. It even brought me you."

I felt my heart shatter when he said those words and reached out for my hands. I felt the tears starting to well up in my eyes and looked down hoping he wouldn't see them, though I knew he would. He cradled my hands in his while looking at me. When I looked up, he stared straight into my eyes.

Mate.
