Chapter 14

I am thinking about that night again; the night she chose Vladimir over me. She was sleeping, curled against his chest. He held her possessively; then, she woke and refused to let me kill him. I almost hit her, I wouldn’t have, but almost. He protected her. Has she been lying to me this whole time? Playing me. Not anymore. I will not be fooled again. I stayed up every night during her heat cycle, so I could not dream with her. I would not let my body betray me. I see Tabitha to relieve the stress, I know I promised, but the tension was too much.

==================

I am sitting in my office, going over next semesters rosters, and looking at lesson plans. I have a memo from the registrar saying that Ivy Driscoll is taking a leave of absence. I frown, looking  up as Zeke and Ryan come in and flop down on my couch.

“Did you find him?” I asked, glancing back down at the memo and not really understanding. Why would she take a leave of absence on her last semester?

“No, he really did clear out.” Ryan said.

Just as I looked up Kyle barreled through the door, and punched me in the face.

“You self centered prick! You didn’t talk to her, did you?” he yelled, swinging again. “I told you to talk to her!”

By now Zeke and Ryan had pulled him off me. I felt liquid coming out of my nose and dabbed at it. Blood.

“Kyle, I could kill you for that. You attacked your Alpha.” I said, my voice a low growl.

“Any Alpha that treats their mate like you have doesn’t deserve the position.” He spat. He took a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket and threw it at me. He tried to pull away from Zeke and Ryan, but they held firm. He wasn’t leaving until I said so. I opened the paper and smoothed it out.

Dearest Kyle,

I need to get away. Please do not worry, I will turn up eventually. There is really nothing to keep me here. You should be out dating and having fun not babysitting me. Besides, I have a vampire to kill. If something happens to me, I have willed my house to you.

Always Yours, Ivy

I looked up at him. A little confused.

“Yeah, you shit, she’s gone, and I think she’s going after Darius.” Kyle growled at me. “Oh, and yeah, she knows you were with Tabitha. I followed her scent from the hospital. She sat across from her place for hours, probably waiting for you to come out, and I am sure you didn’t disappoint.” Kyle was breathing heavy, trying to control the rage he felt.

“That isn’t enough for her to run off.” I said.

“You. Didn’t. Talk. To. Her. Did you? You walked away from her in that clearing and decided what you wanted it to mean. You shut her out. You didn’t even visit her in the hospital.” He was shaking, he was so angry.

“Tell. Me. Everything.” I said, looking Kyle in the eye. He did. He did not spare any detail, including how Vladimir used her. I still want to kill my brother but I understand now why she did what she did.  Sometimes I really am an ass. She needed me and I wasn’t there.

I closed my eyes and opened myself up to her. I could feel her, but she was blocking. I am the Alpha and her mate, she can’t block me out if I don’t want her to, and right now I don’t want her to. Ivy, I know you can hear me. Please come back. I sent to her.

Why should I. I spent ten days with a man that beat me everyday, and that was less painful than what I came home to. She retorted, unable to mask the pain in her voice.

I was already moving when she replied. I ran out, leaving Zeke, Ryan and Kyle staring after me. Kyle was right, I am a shit. I am also the Alpha and I am going to get my mate back and hopefully she’ll have me back. I do not deserve her.

I can feel her, she is in the woods north of her house. I pull into her drive and run my truck into the lawn, not caring.  I jump out and change on the fly. Tearing off after her, I pick up her scent, and follow it, slowly gaining. It takes me several hours but now I can hear her, I know she is ahead of me. I put on an extra burst of speed, seeing her gold body darting in and out of the trees. I launch myself and land on her back, taking her down, and biting down on her neck, the same place where my mark is. She shivers under me. Get off me you douche! She all but yells in my head.

Change back. I said.

Why should I? She asked. You made your choice. You have Tabitha.

Change. Back. I used my Alpha ability to order her to change, and she could not refuse. I felt her shift under me. I shifted, then lifted myself off her and turned her over, so I could see her face. I looked in her eyes, and she looked away, the tears slipping down her face. I wiped the tears from her cheeks.

“Look at me” I ordered. She turned her stunning gold flecked green eyes and locked them on mine. “I am so sorry, Ivy. I deserve everything you could possibly say to me. I should have spoken to you, and I didn’t.” my voice wavered. I didn’t realize how afraid that note made me. I could ignore her as long as I knew where she was, safe. Selfish, I know. “don’t ever leave like that again, you scared me.”

“Why is there blood on your face?” she asked, touching my face with her fingers, that simple touch giving me goose bumps. I really missed her touch. “You know, I have a real hard time staying mad at you, especially when you are laying on top of me naked.”  She smiled at me, and it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

“Kyle punched me in the face, and I needed it, and I am glad you have a hard time staying mad at me, even though I deserve it.” I said in a rush, then leaned down an kissed her. God, I can’t get enough of her. My intense need overwhelms me and I start tracing kisses down her neck, running my tongue over my mark, making her moan under me. I can’t stop myself, I push her legs apart and I enter her, groaning. I have missed this. She pulled my head down and kissed me, whimpers escaping her parted lips. She is panting now.

“Oh, Vash, don’t stop!” she yells. I have no intention of stopping.

I feel her climax which sends me over the top. We lay there for a while, in each others arms; I run my hands down her body, making her shiver. She looks beautiful, her hair fanned around her head, sticks and leaves stuck in it, her gold flecked green eyes watching me.

“If you ever sleep with her again, I will kill her.” She says softly, and by the look in her eyes, she means it.

“I won’t. Can we go home now?” I asked her. She nodded. We got up, changed back and took off running towards her place. I nipped at her legs, teasing. She is a beautiful wolf, and she has a nice ass no matter which form she takes. I know my thoughts are naughty, but I haven’t had her for close to three weeks, and I need to catch up.
