I step out of the shower, getting dressed and running a brush through my matted hair. Once ready, I open the door back into the bedroom to see Colby has already left the room.
I walk down the hallway and down the big staircase, seeing my keys hanging by the main door. I grab my keys, walking out the door and into the garage to find my truck in the parking space next to Colby's car. I need to go to my place and take care of some business. I don't know where Colby went but I can shoot him a text to let him know I'm leaving for a little bit.
I pull my phone out of my pocket, typing out a text to send to Colby when I felt something rush by my head. A knife flies through the air, puncturing the wall beside me. I whip around, to find none other than Oliver standing at the opening of the garage door.
"You missed." I can't help but be a smart ass, even when it's obvious he's going to kill me.
"You just moved faster than I calculated." He shrugs staring at me like I'm his number one enemy.
I unlock the truck door, climbing into the driver seat and starting it up quickly.
"You can't leave." He crosses his arms over his chest, standing in the bay door of the garage to prevent me from leaving.
"Do you really think I won't run you over? I literally shot your brother and he's my mate. So I suggest you get the fuck out of my way." I rev the engine.
"You're not going anywhere. I plan to kill you, just like I did your pitiful excuse of a father and your mother. You look so much like her, it's a pity really. The pretty ones always have to die." He gives me a look of mock sympathy, before reaching into his jacket and pulling out a pistol.
My eyes widen as he cocks the gun and points it at me. I close my eyes, awaiting a death I'm sure CPR won't bring me back from. I hear a horrible scream, before a gun shot and I jump, my eyes flying open to see Colby in wolf form attacking his brother who must have also just shifted. My windshield is cracked and a bullet hole narrowly misses where I was sitting in the drivers seat. I watch in horror as the two wolves fight, before another man runs into the room and shifts as well. His eyes a bright blue much like Colby and Oliver's but older, he must be their father.
They crash into each other relentlessly, biting and clawing each other to shreds. The claws, the howls, the blood, there's so much blood. At this point it's happening so fast it just looks like a blur of fur and blood.
Oliver's wolf and their fathers wolf lay down, unmoving on the garage floor as Colby shifts back into human form, running over to my truck door and yanking it open before scooping me up in his arms and pulling me against his naked body. His body is shaking, and I'm still in shock my body also shaking as he holds me close, smelling my hair and whispering in my ear how he almost lost me again.
I slowly wrap my arms around his neck, glancing over to see the other two have also changed back into human form but they aren't moving. Did Colby just kill his brother and his father to protect me?
"...I'm so sorry." He mutters into my ear, picking me up and I wrap my legs around his bare waist, "I'm so so so sorry Danny."
"....you saved me." I whisper, my eyes meeting his for the first time. His bright blue eyes holding a million emotions.
"I will always save you Danielle, you are my mate." He whispers, as he rests his forehead against mine, continuing to walk us back into the house and into our bedroom. His body covered in bruises and scratches and coated in blood.
My body starts to heat up, my skin turning red again as he sets me down in the bedroom before he goes to get in the shower and wash the blood off of him. His wounds already healing thanks to his werewolf genetics. I sit down on the bed, sweat pouring from my face and chest, my temperature sky rocketing. As if this day hasn't been bad enough, of course I'd go into heat again.
This time though, I'm going to do things different. Colby just killed his brother and his father to protect me, and I owe it to him to complete our bond.
I stand up, stripping from my clothes before walking over to the bathroom door, I push it lightly realizing he left it unlocked. I slip inside, shutting the door behind me and locking it.
"If you're coming to kill me, I don't have the energy to fight you off right now so it would be easy." He hums out from the shower, the steam thick in the bathroom.
I pull back the curtain, before stepping inside with him, his eyes widening in surprise, "quite the opposite, actually."
He wastes no time in grabbing me and pulling me into a hot kiss, my fingers tangling into his hair as he pushes me against the shower wall. His hand fists in my hair, pulling my head back so he can lock eyes with me, "are you sure? Because once I start, I'm not sure I can stop." His heavy breathing and the shaking in his hands not going unnoticed.
"We are mates Colby, I love you." He smiles, a genuine smile that makes me smile in return.
"I was starting to think I'd never hear you say that. But I love you more, and I'm gonna show you just how much you're gonna love being mated to me." He drops a wink that has me rolling my eyes at his cocky attitude.
His lips crash back onto mine, the hot kiss leaving me breathless as he trails his kisses down my neck and to my mates mark, his teeth grazing over the mark and sending shivers down my spine. He smirks against my skin, "I told you I would have my chance eventually."
"You arrogant asshole." It comes out breathy and not nearly as much bite as I wanted it to have as he bites my mark again.
"You love me." He whispers before crashing his lips back to mine.
That I do.
