Chapter 5

Yazmen

"Ruby, wakey wake. We're home." I call to my mate, who stirs, and mumbles some type of gibberish, but eventually wakes up, and stumbles out of the car.

I chuckle, and lead her into our room, and let her lay in the bed, and mind-link a pack member, asking them to get the bags of clothing for Ruby and set them at my door.

Ruby's snoring softly as I head into the study. She grumbles something softly about a mean fish in her sleep as I hear her turn over and sink deeper into my covers.

I chuckle softly and smile to myself while booting up my computer. I wait patiently, as it starts, and type in my password as needed.

I should really change that sometime. I shrug it off and head on over to my great pal, Google. Once google loads, I type "Missing girl reports for surrounding areas". Millions of images popped up with descriptions of the girl. I kept scrolling and scrolling, trying to see if Ruby was one of the missing girls.

Finally, on page 164, I had given up when I heard Ruby stir, and shriek my name as if her life depended on it. She sounded so shaken up, and so afraid. I ran to her, and pulled her into my embrace, kissing her head softly

" Shh, shh. You're okay, I'm here. Don't worry. I've gotcha." I mumble sweetly in her ear. She seems to calm down to my touch and voice, and nuzzles closely, pushing her nose into the crook of my neck. I stroke her hair, and whisper sweet nothings in her ear, trying to make her feel better.

She yawns and falls asleep once again, so I carried her into the study with me and kept her small body on my lap as I look through the missing girl reports. An hour or two later, and some seriously dry eyes, I had made it all the way to number 698, I looked at the last two, and shook my head. Wasn't her.

I decided that she'd tell me everything when she was ready, so I took her to the bed, and laid down with her, humming a song to her that my mother used to sing to me when I was upset, or when I felt like my heart was going to implode.

I've had heart conditions ever since I was little, but when I first formed into my wolf, all of the heart conditions went away. Sometimes, I still felt little pinches, but nothing serious. Now, thinking about it, nothing meant more to me than my mate did. I took in her chocolaty citrus smell, and let myself fall asleep, holding the beautiful blonde in my arms.

I stir awake as I feel my side grow cold. I shoot out of the bed, and sniff around for my mate. Her scent was strong, so she must still be here, somewhere.

"Ruby?" I called, making my voice loud enough to where if she was showering, she'd be able to hear me.

"Hum?" I heard her soft call from the bathroom.

"You okay, dear?"

"I'm fine, just um.." She seemed shy. "Just started my monthly, is all."

"Oh, alright, dove. Take your time, and if you need anything, let me know." I tell her, and walk to my vanity, pulling a vintage hairbrush from the drawer, and began brushing out one curl at a time.

"Okay." She said, and it got quiet. She eventually walked out of the bathroom, her hair in a ponytail, more to the top of her head, and her hands were wet. "Do you have anything I can dry my hands on?"

I smiled, and tossed her a washcloth, then got back to brushing out a curl, one by one. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye and saw her neatly fold up the washcloth, and set it down, before heading towards me. She leaned her head against my shoulder blade.

"Yazmen?" She said quietly.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"I... I haven't been completely honest.." she barely made a whisper.

"About what, love?"

"My name... My name isn't Ruby... It's Laelynn.." She whispers.

I smile and turn around pulling her close. "Which name would you prefer I call you?"

"Ruby." She said, not a hint of doubt in her voice.

"Then Ruby your name is, then," I tell her. She means more to me than anything in this world, and I understand she's not ready to tell me everything. I'll give her the time she needs.

She tears up and grips onto me as she hugs me. I kiss her head, and hold her close, stroking her silky hair gently. She's now sobbing into my shoulder. I just hold her, without a care in the world. She's the only thing I need. The only person I'll ever want for the rest of my life, and no matter what her past was, I'll always love her. Forever and always.

Sorry for not updating in like FOREVER. I've been.. Meh, for the longest time, but I'm feeling better! I started the 9th grade, turned 15 (I was SO scared. For the both of them!) I got a new phone, made amazing friends, got better at art, and my teacher is making me write one good thing about me a day. (pooey.) It's actually making me feel better about myself, though.

Don't forget to vote, it always makes my day. Have a nice night!
