Her Dark Secret

Chapter 4

Hello again! I've finally agreed with myself that I'd update TBSM every Wednesday, and if I don't, I'll update everyday for a week, which is a bad enough punishment for me. Don't get me wrong, I love writing these books, but sometimes I just need a break. I've also come to a conclusion that I should update this book every Sunday. Good enough? Plus, school's over for me. Woohoo! I'm finally in junior high!

************************************

I looked around my tiny hut. I had managed to escape Kade, much to my disappointment and sadness, but I also knew that it wouldn't be long until he found me, due to werewolves super powered scent tracking. "Saskia!", I called. My big bellied dog waddled in, barking in happiness. Dakoto was at her heels, making sure she didn't get hurt. I bent down, patting her on the head.

"I missed you, you big furball!", I giggled. I looked around the hit again. "Listen, guys. I don't think we have much time, but we have to-"

One of my windows shattered. Holy crap, it's too late! I whipped my head around, staring wide eyed at the huge black and brown wolf. Kade. He growled, his eyes brimming with anger.

I whimpered. He looked far more scarier than when I first met him as a wolf. But I guess that must happen every time a werewolf shifts based on anger. Right?

Kade calmed down a little, but still showed no sign of going away. Soon, instead of an abnormally large wolf, there was an incredibly sexy man standing there, in my house, butt baked.

Kade looked angry, but instead of looking at me, he looked like he was directing his anger towards himself. He muttered a collection of colorful cuss words.

"Kade, what the hell?!", I screech. What man just barges into your home as a wolf, then shifts into a butt naked man, then mutters curse words? Oh, I know. Kade.

Kade looks over at me, his expression still angry. "Why'd you run away from me?", he growled.

I sighed. "Would you leaving me alone be too much to ask for?", I asked, already knowing the answer.

"Yes!", Kade yelled. "It's way too much to ask for! You're my fucking mate, dammit!"

I stared at him, my mouth slightly open agape. Did he just yell at me? What kind of a mate did that?! Anger flowed through my veins. I was abused 10 years ago, and I wasn't going to let that happen again.

"Get out.", I ordered.

Kade looked up at me with regret. "Babe, please, I didn't mean it!", he said.

"Too fucking late!", I yelled. "I've been through enough abuse, thanks to my ex, so I moved to Alaska, and now you're in the way of a safe, lone life!"

Only one thing registered in Kade's mind. "Abuse?", he asked, his voice lacing with anger again. "You're ex?"

I instantly regretted saying what I said. "N-no.", I stuttered. "I was l-lying."

"Kelly, don't lie to me.", Kade growled again. "Did your ex abuse you?"

I nodded hesitantly. "H-he did.", I whispered, but I was sure he could hear it.

"How?"

"I-it was on our wedding day.", I started. "I was so happy. But th-then that's when he showed his t-true colors. H-he r-r-raped me and st-started to physically hurt me, and-" I started to sob. It was too much to talk about. I didn't feel like bringing on the subject. It was way too painful.

I felt someone's strong arms attach themselves to my waist. I knew it was Kade, but right now, I really needed company. "I'll kill that bastard.", Kade growled.

I sighed, my face tear streaked, and pulled away. "Now tell me what you're doing here.", I demanded.

Kade looked angry again. "I'm here to take you back to the pack house.", he said like it was obvious.

"What if I don't want to go?",, I replied stubbornly.

"You will go, whether you like it or not!", Kade boomed in a strong, powerful voice. Probably his Alpha voice.

I huffed, trying to stay strong and to not let his power get to me. "No.", I said, looking him square in the eye. Is that what I'm here for? To be controlled by my mate?

Kade growled. "I guess I'll have to do this the hard way.", he said lowly.

Before I could reply, I was thrown up into the air, and landed on his shoulder. His arm was wrapped around my waist, in case I tried to escape.

"What are you doing, you crazy psycho?!", I shrieked. "Put me down! Put me down now!"

"No.", Kade growled again, growing impatient. "I will not let you go, no matter what you say!"

Due to Kade's super werewolf speed, we were at the pack house in a split second. And that's when an idea occurred to my mind. Staying silent, I watched as the front door came closer.

"Finally, agreeing with me, eh?", Kade said, chuckling a bit.

I said nothing, and just watched the door come closer. Kade turned the door handle slowly...and that's when I decided to start my plan.

I started screaming and calling out for help. "Rape!", I screamed. "Rape! Someone help me! The Alpha's raping me!" I continued to scream until an old man, probably in his late 60s barged into the living room. He had midnight black hair and calming, yet dangerous, brown eyes.

"Son!", he yelled, authority dripping out of his voice. "Put the poor girl down!"

Kade cussed again before setting me down gingerly on the couch. I guess this old man had more power than him. I started to laugh. "It's okay, sir.", I said through laughing fits. "I'm fine, really."

To my surprise, the old man started chucking, too. "Ah.", he said. He turned to Kade. "Son, what were you doing with this girl?"

"Well, uh...", Kade muttered, trailing off.

"I refused to come back with him to the pack house so he decided to kidnap me.", I spoke for him.

Kade's father raised an eyebrow at his son. "Now, that's no way to treat a girl."

He walked towards me. "I'm Kade's father, but just call me Lou.", he said. He was extremely friendly. Unlike his son.

I threw a quick and accusing glance at Kade, who caught it and looked away. "I'm Kelly, it's nice to meet you.", I said, grinning at Lou. "You're certainly nicer than your son."

Kade turned to glare at me, then his father. "You're not a werewolf, are you?", Lou asked. There was no hostility or disgust in his voice. I 'twas just calm and friendly. "No, I'm just a human.", I replied honestly.

Lou's teeth sparkled as he smiled. "Well, human or not, welcome to the family.", he said.

I felt taken aback. Did he know that Kade and I were mates?...

Lou must've seen the shocked look on my face because he added, "Of course I knew! I can tell by the way he looks at you with such love in his eyes."

Love? Since when? What the heck? Does everyone but me notice this? I mentally smacked myself. Well this is embarrassing.

And by the way, for all you MINECRAFT fans (praise the glorious an best game ever!), there is an awesome server named Vanilla. Yes, I'm pretty sure people have heard of that before, considering it the name of an ice cream flavor, but it has very little people. I want to grow that population.

Server name: Vanilla
