Chapter 19
(Maisie’s POV)
I ran from the house as quickly as I could and thankfully no one decided to follow me. My wolf was whining in my head, either from the lack of mate or the power that hit me like a tonne of bricks.
I stumbled into the woods, losing focus as I tried to regain my posture and mind for that matter. I reached a small lake and looked at my reflection. I recoiled when I saw the white circle outlining my head. The mark of a royal.
I whimpered as it finally hit me. I’m going to be bound to Logan forever. I’m never going to be able to mate with anyone else as I’ll only feel love towards him. I’ll have to watch him play happy families with Carrie while I’m on the outside looking through the window.
“Well well well. What do we have here?” a voice said from behind me, causing me to turn around quickly
I relaxed when I noticed that it was only Kai. He suddenly pulled off his shirt and threw it towards me. He wanted me to shift. I shook my head as he stood there and watched me.
He chuckled and turned around. I quickly shifted back and pulled his shirt over my head. Luckily he was way taller than me so the shirt came to mid-thigh.
“What are you doing out here?” I asked softly
He laughed again “I could say the same to you” he smiled
I wrapped my arms around myself “I just needed some space” I mumbled
“Mate troubles?”
I snapped my head up and gasped “What do you know?” Did he know about Carrie? My mark?
Kai shrugged his shoulders “Just rumours that you and Logan aren’t getting on lately”
I sighed with relief “Yeah I guess”
“Want to talk about it?” He asked stepping a little closer
I stepped back, nearly tripping over a tree root. “No it’s kind of private”
“You sure? I’m a great listener. I love to hear people’s stories” he smirked stepping closer again
This time I took a couple steps back until my back hit a tree. “Y-yeah it’s fine. None of your business” I snapped
Kai was suddenly right in front of me causing me to yelp. He leant down so he was right next to my ear “Pity. I could mediate the two of you and tell Logan what he’s missing” he whispered in my ear as he slipped his hand under the shirt.
I frowned from his words “What are you doing?! Leave me alone!” I said as I tried to push him away. What is he going on about? My wolf was growling in my head, fighting to get out.
“Don’t you recognise me?” he whispered again
He pulled back slightly so I could look into his eyes. That’s when it all clicked. I recognised those eyes as they have been haunting my nightmares every night for the past 2 years.
Kai smirked when he realised that I figured it all out “Boo” he said as I started screaming, hitting him so he would let go.
“Mmmm I remember those screams well. Bit of déjà vu isn’t it? Like we’ve been here before in the middle of the woods with no one to hear you. I loved taking advantage of you last time and I’m going to enjoy doing it again” he laughed as he ripped the shirt to shreds, leaving me naked in front of him.
