The Alphas Abused Mate

Chapter 10

It's stinks down here. Really bad. And I can't see anything. I'm touching the walls to find my way.
At times like this, I ask myself why I decided to walk down dark, scary, stinky stairs. This is probably just a storage room, and that girl just tricked me into believing that Xavier was down here. She didn't seem to like me anyways.
Then my heart stopped and goosebumps raised on my skin as I heard a low, painful groan. I had a strong thought to turn and leave, but what if it's Xavier? He could be really hurt.
I saw a small ray of light. And the groans got louder. Then there was a loud crack and a scream. I froze and took deep breaths to calm my nerves. The stench was stronger and the metallic scent of blood lingered with it.
"Tell me....NOW!!!!!" The voice was so commanding and powerful. Another crack broke the silence followed by a weak groan.
I got far enough for there to be long rows of cells. Everyone room I passed was more disgusting than the last. There was blood on the floor, chunks of hair and nails stuck on blood matted walls. I had to stop breathing to keep from vomiting. What kind of place is this? And why would Xavier be down here?
"Fuck you. I'm just here to give you a little message." A raspy voice crowked.
As I got closer to the sound, I found the door from which it was coming from. It was open, but barely.
I jumped back when I heard a loud thump and a groan.
"Start fucking talking." Xavier. That was him. Oh my god.
I peaked through what I could, there was a bright lamp lightening up the room.
I saw Xaviers muscled back. He was sweating while he shook and his harsh breathing was loud.
The bloody man tied to the chair spit up some blood and a pieces of his teeth.
"My boss knows you have her here. His bitch of a daughter ran away and we want her back." He coughed. "She was suppose to be sold to my son. Just give her back to us and we won't kill anyone in your disgusting pack."

Xavier narrows his eyes."We have no female hunters imprisoned here. You have the wrong pack. If you shut the fuck up and stop fighting, I'll let you go."
"She's not a hunter. Can't do anything right. I don't know why my son wants her. We know she's here. This is the only pack she could have crossed."
Xavier wipes blood off his knuckles with a rag and says, "You haven't even given me a name."
The man chuckles and spits out more blood. "Lucy." My heart starts to pound. "Lucy Johnson." The pain in my chest makes me hyperventilate. I back away from the door, and at the same time, I hear a sickening crack.
He knows where I am. He found me. I'm never going to be free of him.
Tears start to leak from my eyes and silent sobs escape my mouth. The people that we're alive in the cells were laughing and trying to pull me towards them. Some of them had sick yellow eyes, white skin and sharp nails.
I slapped one of their hand away and started running for the end of the long hall. Very faintly, I heard the door behind me creak open.
"Lucy!!" I heard him yelling. I pumped my legs faster. I was almost at the exit. "Stop!" I felt him catch me before I made it to the stairs.
"Let me go!" Then I did something I never thought I would do to anyone.
I slapped him. Hard.
He stood there, with his head facing right. His eyes slowly changed to an electric blue. I ran out before I could see what he would do. He would probably hit me back, or beat me. I deserve it. I shouldn't have done that.
I quickly made it to Xavier's room and cried. Why did I even think that he wouldn't find me? Was he really going to sell me? Why did he send someone to get me? And why was Xavier doing that to him?
The pillow I was clutching was soaked in some places and I could barely see. I checked the time and saw that I had been lying here for two hours.
I wash my face with cold water to reduce the swelling and brushed my hair. The tangles were tough, but I got them.
I undressed and put on the shirt Xavier had given me the night before and crawled back into bed. I felt hot and shaky.
Minutes later, the door opens. I already know people don't just come in without knocking. So it's obviously him.
He flicks the light on. I don't hear him move, but the closet door opened and gently closed. The lights flicked off, and the bed dipped.
I wasn't facing him. I feel his body heat radiating off of him, making me want to turn around and crash my lips onto his. Along with a stinging pain in my abdomen.
"I'm so sorry." The words slipped out of my mouth before I could rethink them. He didn't speak for a while.
"For what?" He whispered.
Oh god, don't make me say it.
"For hitting you. I overreacted." I turned to face him. The moonlight coming from his large window reflected off his face, making him look pale.
"No. You didn't. I hate that you had to see that." I didn't respond, afraid that my voice would crack. "I won't let them have you, Lucy. They'd have to kill me and my pack for them to get you. I'll keep you safe. I promise."
Before I could speak, the burning spread dangerously all over my body. My arms and legs jerked while my mouth hung open in a silent scream. It was so much worse this time.
"What the fuck?! Lucy, whats wrong?" He straddled me without putting his weight on my hips. Tears started to stream relentlessly down my face.
But it felt so good to have him closer. When he touched me, the burning would stop. I want him to touch me. I want him.
I pulled him down and attached our lips firmly together. He immediately responded by holding my face and nibbling my bottom lip. My fingers tangled themselves in his black hair. His hands traveled down to the hem of my shirt and slowly inched his way up. My core throbbed with every breath I took. I wanted more of him.
I don't know what's happening to me. A little while ago, he scared the life out of me. Now, I don't think I want to let him go.
Just before he got to the bottom of my breasts, his body flung off of me. He was standing at the foot of the bed, gripping the bed post so hard I thought it would snap.
I was panting, and watching while his breathing slowed.
"You smell....so...so good." His voice was suddenly deeper. Huskier than before. Then his electric blue eyes snapped open.
That seemed to break me out of my lustful trance. I began to feel the pain a bit more, but I knew I didn't want to go too far with Xavier. We barely even talk, as it is.
He started to crawl from the foot of the bed, eyes still blue and dangerous.
"Xavier?" I say.
"Not anymore." He kisses my thigh, up to my hip. I start to gently push him away.
Let him mate us. We have the mark, there's only one step left. Let our mate love us.
I gasped at the voice in my head. Those were certainly not my thoughts.
I gently pushed him, but he let out a low growl, daring me to do it again. So I did.
Next thing I know, both of my arms are pinned above my head. His eyes are angry and full of lust. I try pull free my hands, but he only holds them tighter, almost causing me pain. I watched in shock as his blazing eyes shut and ripped my shirt down the middle...with his teeth.
I was panting and sweating from fear and anticipation. My body completely submitted to him, but my mind was stubborn and wanting him to stop.
Just when he began to place open mouthed kisses on my neck that had me shuddering in pleasure, I said, "Thats enough. Stop, please. I don't want to."
His grip tightened painfully. I just kept my mouth shut.
And suddenly, he had thrust his body off of mine and landed on the floor on his knees, fists on the floor, and trying hard to catch his breath. Then he slowly stood, straightened his shoulders, and left.
The pain began to return and I wanted him back. With me, in the bed.
I scold myself for thinking like this. I wanted him to leave and now I want him back.
I clenched my thighs together tightly. It helped releave some of the ache between them. I'm angry that he just left. Did he know what was happening to me? I feel like I'm dying.
"Oh my god. Lucy! Are you ok?" Jackie ran through the door in purple nightshorts and black t-shirt.
"Please! Bring him back! I can't- can't take it.... help me." I cried as my abdomen clenched at the thought of him.
She kneels next to me and pushes the hair away from my face. "It's ok. You're gonna be ok. Just wait a second." I watched her run to the bathroom and return with a wet towel. She gently started to wipe away the sweat that had begun to run down my forehead. "I'll explain whats happening in the morning. But right now, you need to sleep." She said as she played with my hair and cooled me off with the towel. And before I knew it, I was falling asleep.
-------
"Wake up, sleepy-head. It's almost noon. There's someone here that wants to see you. Come on!" I groaned and rolled on to my side. My skin was hot and the lower part of my abdomen throbbed.
"No." I heard her gasp, then her tiny hands clutch the blanket.
"No one, says no, to me." And she yanked the blanket off.
I groan and sit up. She's standing by the bathroom door, the shower running. "Why are you even here?" She giggles and scratches her arm.
"Alpha told me to come take care of you while your heat is here. Here, take this. It'll help with the pain, but your scent will still be strong to other males. I'll work on it, get in the shower." I swallowed the small pill and sighed.
"None of what you said makes any sense to me." She just scoffed and shoved me into the bathroom.
"Use his shampoo!!! It'll help with your scent."
-------
"What was that pill?" I asked her as she sat me down.
"The pack doctors came up with a mixture of herbs and common medications to helps with a female wolf's heat. Just recently, too." She said while brushing my hair.
"Whats going on?" I stare at her through the window. She glances up, then back down.
"Female werewolves go into heat. It's an opportunity to have an heir to the Alpha's title. And since you're the Alpha's mate, you'll have it every month until you're pregnant. Regular wolves have it every other month. Don't worry, it only lasts three days, but then you'll get your period because you're not pregnant."
I frowned. "So, for the next three days, I'll be horny for Xavier. AND I'll still get my period after?" She laughed and nodded. "But I'm not a wolf."
"No, but you are half. Mom's a wolf. There's a chance that you'll become one because you've found your mate." She sets the brush down and hands me One of Xavier's t-shirts and a brand new pair of jeans. "Go put these on, then we'll go see him."
"Who?"
"Connor." She says happily. "He's back from the war. And he really wants to meet you."
"Who's Connor?" I say. She gasps and swats my arm. I flinch violently and she looks at me curiously.
"Lucy?" I try to play it off, but its hard when youve lived in a house, where every time someone raises their arm, is to hurt you.
"Sorry, I wasn't expecting that. Who's Connor?" She raises an eyebrow and sighs.
"You're step-brother."
"Don't you mean half-brother?" I say.
"No, he's not related to you by blood. My dad had a son before he met mom. But his mother left him alone for my dad to care for him. He's really nice. A little goofy, but likeable." She quickly fixes her hair, the drags me out of the room. "Make sure you don't talk to any other males. Even though you smell like Xavier, they can still smell that your in heat. Stay close to me and Connor."
"But isn't Connor like any other guy? We're not related." She laughs.
"He still sees you as a sister. He'll be able to smell you, but there will be absolutely no sexual desire. You're safe."
I muttered a small 'ok' while we walked outside. The sun was a shining brightly, and the wind blew smoothly.
"Over there!" She yells, dragging me over to a man sitting on a picnic table. His left arm is broken and he has a small cut above his brow.
"Coco!" She screams while jumping on him and tackling him in a hug. He laughs and hugs her back tightly with his good arm. "Oh my god. What happened?" She gasped. He chuckled and kissed the top of her head.
"I just broke a bone. I'll be fine in two days. You're bound to get hurt when you're in battle." He glanced at me. "Hey, who are you?" He smiled.
Jackie pulled me closer towards him. "This is Lucy." His eyes widened, and he stood up to his full height. He was at least six feet. His eyes shined and his grin was wide. I just stared up at him, wondering how he got to such a good height in sixteen years.
"This..is my big sister?" He said.
My mouth opened to say something, "I-I wouldnt say big, but ummm...yeah." He laughed and engulfed a hug, spinning me around with me in one arm.
"He's a hugger. You'll need to get used to it." She pried me out of his arm. Then his face scrunched up. Here sniffed the air, then picked me up.
"What are you doing?" I say, panicking.
"You're in heat, you shouldn't even be out here." He looks over at Jackie. "You should know better." She shrugs, apologetic. He shakes his head. "We're going inside."
Once we're were back in, he set me down. Nobody was inside, everyone seemed to like it better outside.
"Anyways, sis, I'm Connor." He says shaking my hand. "I'm sixteen years old and I like pancakes with nutella. Just saying in case you cook." He says laughing.
I chuckled and pull my hand back. "I'm Lucy. I like chicken wings with barbecue sauce. Just saying in case you cook." He laughed and walked into the kitchen.
----
"Xavier'a gonna be here soon. I'm gonna go walk Connor back home. I'll be back tomorrow to give you more pills. Take this right now." I swallowed the small tablet and thanked her. "We'll go visit mom tomorrow, if Xavier let's you."
I was startled at her last remark. If he let me? He doesn't have that kind of power over me. And if i led him to believe that, I'll need to explain something to him. Plus, he's a scary, controlling ass. "Don't worry, I'll meet you there."
