Angelic

2: Trust?

''angel... wake up honey...''

Goddess. Where was I? I looked around and remembered the incident that happened.

I was in the devil lair. I felt disgusting.

I scrambled up and started gathering whatever I had left of my clothing. What time was it? I looked at the grandfather clock and saw it was five in the evening.

I was out for so long this time. Suddenly, grief fills me up. How did my life become this downhill spiral? Gathering myself I left the office as quietly as I could. My bare feet padded across the house picking up all the mess the pack had left in the communal rooms.

After I was done cleaning I went back to my basement. I took another shower and cleaned myself of his scent as much as I could. I didn't want the pack to hate me more or think I was doing something to gain power.

I got dressed and left the bathroom only in order to get another massive shock. Zack...

''W-what are y-you doing here?'' I started to back away as he came towards me. His eyes were slowly turning black and I couldn't go through another ordeal.

''You're not going to the ball, are you Angel?'' His voice seemed menacing as he stopped next to my bed.

''Alpha has asked us to serve for the event an help guests. So I am obliged to attend.''

He stops walking and a grim expression clouds his face. Quickly I realise he has seen the torn clothes covered in blood that littered my bed. Oh no.

''You... You're such a whore Angel.'' The anger was emanating from his pores. ''He had you again?'' His eyes were pitch black now. I started cowering in fear and huddled into the corner of my room. He looked towards me and marched until he was a breath away. I started to sob again.

''Remember you're mine Angel.'' He shoved his head into my neck and sniffed until he calmed down. I was dumb. I had to open my mouth.

''You rejected me, Zack.'' He looked up at me and slammed the door behind me. I started to shake really badly. I was pathetic. I couldn't even stand up for my self. ''P-please s-stop you're scaring me.''

Suddenly his eyes snapped out of the trance he was in, his green eyes staring at me contemplatively.

''I rejected you, because you are a coward Angel. You're weak. You don't even have a wolf, can you call yourself a member of our race, even? You're just a puny human. How could I present such a weakling as a Luna. A LUNA! You would never be able to help the pack. That's why I chose Kayden. She would make strong pups and actually be able to help to the pack... Unlike you.''

Every word stabbed at my heart. The pain insufferable. ''Why are you here Zack?'' My voice breaks, letting out every emotion I feel. Broken.

''I'm here to tell you that you won't be attending the ball. I'm not going to take any chance in letting you find another mate.'' He comes even closer and moves my hair behind my hair, gently. '' You will never find another mate or I will kill him and make sure you never leave this room. You will die alone.''

He moves away from me and makes his way to the exit door of the basement. As he reaches the steps, he looks back at me one more time.

''Oh, by the way. You don't need to worry about your... obligations to my father anymore.''

I stand in confusion and watch him leave, then, I break down as soon as he's gone. Oh goddess why me? Why have you damned me to such a fate.

After moping around, I realise there is no one here to help me. I clear the bed of the bloodied clothes and rock myself to sleep.
