I sighed and looked down at my bloody leg, and looked across my body soaked in blood. I could feel intense pain pounding from my head, and flowing from my leg. "Where is Jake when I need him? Never mind..I don't need him. All he cares about is himself, getting attention for himself." I growled rudely under my breath.
I walked towards my bed and sat down, my leg on its side so the injured side was up. 'Josh send in the medic, while ya?' I mind linked him. 'Sure thing babe. Sending her up now.' 'Thanks!' I shut off the mind link and rested for a while. Not two minutes later the medic came in with a first aid kit. I smiled kindly, stretching out my leg slightly. "Thanks much doc." She bowed her head. "My pleasure Luna. It's my job."
After she stitched up my leg and wrapped it in gauze she wrapped my head in bandages. She stitched up my stomach and wrapped gauze around it. She gave me some headache pills and pain killers. "There..now I want you to rest for a while and stay off your feet, let your wounds heal. Your head should only take 2 or so hours. Your leg is huge, I say..6-9 hours. Your stomach should take 30 minutes." I nod and stick out my hand, shaking hers. "Thanks so much doc."
The rest of the day I spent in bed, sleeping and healing my wounds up.
Pain.
That's what I fealt the whole time while I was resting my wounds. Jake didn't come visit me, but I fealt a sharp pain in my stomach.
'Why do I feel so much pain?' I asked my wolf. She responded with a growl. 'Jakes wolf, Kane, is disgusted. He is telling me Jake is with a girl, banging her senseless. He said its because Jake feels he doesn't deserve you and he should just give up, and at the moment he is trying to forget his troubles.' I felt sadness, but reminded myself I didn't want a mate. 'Yes you do. You want Jake just as much as I want Kane.' She snarled at me softly. I sighed, but did not respond to her, because I knew she was right.
I fell asleep and woke up early in the morning the next day. Glancing at the alarm clock it read 5:23 AM. 'Why the heck did I wake up this early?' I growled at my wolf. 'Jake is on his way home. He will be coming in the room in a few minutes. He just got home and parked his car. I want you to confront him. Please..I love Kane.' I nodded, even though she couldn't see me. 'Your right..I should Abby.'
My wolfs name is Abby, named after her mothers mates mother. Abby was a family name. Before Abby's mates mother it was her mates mother. It just goes on and on like this within the family.
I stared up at the ceiling for a few minutes before I heard the door opening to our bedroom quietly. "Have fun last night?" I spat angerly. "What do you MEAN?" He pretended to my confused. "I know what you did last night..banged a girl..why? I thought you wanted me?" I said, hurt shining through my voice. "I do want you..it's just..I feel I don't deserve you..that is should just give up and let you be with who you want..if it will make you happier.." I knew this except the last part.
"Jake..I do like those other guys but..I don't want you sleeping around! Your setting a bad example for your pack.." Jake laughed, humor no where in the laugh. "So I can't sleep around but you CAN?" I sat up. "I never said that! I think it would be best you didn't for your pack! What good of an example is it if their alpha slept around?" I snapped. "What good example is it if the packs Luna sleeps around?" He snapped back.
I threw my hands in the air. "I can't believe you!" I yelled, standing up, and limping past him. 'I should just reject him right now!' I yelled in my head. My wolf was growling at both me and Jake. Jake because she didn't like him treating her like that, and me because she didn't want us to reject Jake and Kane. 'No! You won't reject him! I agree he is a douche but still! He IS our mate!' She howled in pain.
I slipped out of the room.
I hated the thickness of the tension in there.
I could cut it with a knife!
I could hear Abby whimpering in my head, and I could sense Kane also whimpering through our mate mind link.
Why couldn't I have a NORMAL mate!?
Why did I have to have an ALPHA mate!?
Why did I have to run away?
Why was I going to be forced to marry the alpha of my old pack?
I heard a ringing phone from Jakes office. I sighed and walked into there, picking up the phone. "Hello? Alphas phone, Luna speaking" I said with a cheerful voice. "Hello? This is alpha Jon. I am calling for alpha Jake, I need to speak to him." I widened my eyes. Alpha Jon was my old alpha that I was going to marry!
"I can pass along the message sir." I said quietly, hiding my voice. "No, I wish to directly speak to him." He said sternly. "Yes sir, one second." I set the phone down on the desk. I sped walked to our bedroom and entered quietly. What was in there surprised me. Jake was there, crying on the bed, his head in his hands and his shoulders shaking from his sobbing. I walked slowly to the bed and wrapped my arms around him. "Sh..tell me why you are crying.." Jake looked up, his eyes red. "I can't take it..I love you. I NEED you..I feel like you rejected me.." I felt tears threaten to spill from my eyes. "Shush..I wasn't rejecting you. But we need to talk about this later. Alpha Jon is on the phone. He wishes to speak directly to you." Jake nodded and stood, walking towards the door with my fallowing.
As we entered the office Jake strolled to the desk and picked up the phone, holding it to his ear.
I ease dropped on the convo.
"Hello?" Jakes voice was nice and husky.
"Hello, this is alpha Jon."
"This is Alpha Jake."
"I wish to speak to you about my supposed to be wife running away. Her name is Samantha."
"Uh-huh.." He looked at me. "And what is her last name?"
"Johnson."
Jakes eyes widened and he clenched his fists tightly.
He growled into the phone.
"Is there a problem Jake?" Alpha Jon demanded.
"Not one at all..I will contact you if I hear anything."
After he said that he slammed the phone down and growled, punching the desk, breaking it in half. "When were you going to tell me this?" He snarled, eyes closed tightly as possible. "I..wasn't. I didn't think it was a big deal..I ran away from my home so I wouldn't have to marry him." I was looking at my feet, but I knew he stood.
I heard the scraping of the chair along the ground, and his arms wrapping around me. "I will have my pack fight to the death to protect you. Anyone in my pack would be more than happy to die for their beautiful Luna. Samantha.." He paused and made me look into his eyes, his hand under my chin. "I have to tell you something." I nodded and searched his eyes for anything.
The emotion in his eyes were unreadable to me, I have never seen it before.
"I love you." And then he kissed me.
