The Cursed Beauty (On Hold)

Chapter 4

Our kiss was perfect, and passionate. I felt shivers going down my spine. When we pulled apart he leaned his forehead against mine, we were both breathless, my eyes were closed but I could feel him staring at me and I'm positive that his eyes were glowing. I whispered breathless, "That was..." Blake finished, " Amazing." I nodded against his head.
I reluctantly pulled away. Blake was still staring at me. I sighed and smiled. " I should let Mary in." I started to walk away. Blake growled at me. I turned toward him. " Don't growl at me, wolf. And I know it's not my place to say this, but give her a chance, she is your Mother." Blake gripped my wrist and brought me into his embrace-once again- He whispered against my ear, "She might have given birth to me but I have no Mother. I raised myself. And I will hear anything you want so say, whether I like it or not. I love the sound of your voice, even if you talked about the most boring subject." After hearing his words I felt so happy, I gave him a quick squeeze, and turned to the balcony. Mary and Guillermo were talking. Mary saw me in the doorway. I nodded once indicating that I'm ready. Mary nodded back and walked into my tower without another word and locked the balcony door so Guillermo wouldn't come in until I was ready.

I removed my dress in my closet and put on something easier for Mary to look at my scars without showing too much skin at once. I braided my long blonde hair to go down my back, along my spine. I stepped out of my closet. I didn't have sleeves and my skirt went to the bottom of my knees. When I stepped out I heard a gasp from both Blake and Mary. Mary stepped toward me one hand over her stomach and another hovering over her mouth. "You have more scars? I thought they were only on both of your wrist and ankles and back and across your stomach." Mary said unshed tears in her eyes. I blushed and looked away. " Oh-yeah. I...um...my Father didn't do the ones going down my legs and arms." I looked back at Mary then at Blake and back at Mary. " I did it. I guess I should tell you...that um that was my way to punishing myself." Blake walked toward me, "Why? Why did you do it?" I looked away and sighed " I'll say when we're done. I just want Mary to look at my scars." Blake opened his mouth to say something but I walked past him to lay down on my bed. Mary walked over and lifted my skirt a little more above my knees and inspected my scars going down my legs and around my ankles. She next inspected the scars from my shoulders down to around my wrist. Mary started to untie my corset and laid it on my bed and unbuttoned the buttons on the nightgown I was wearing so my stomach was showing. Mary made it so Blake could only see my stomach. Any other parts like my breast were covered. When Mary nodded for Blake to walk over to me. He looked at my stomach and his eyes bugged out of his head. He carefully lifted a hand and with his index finger gently touched at my scar. Even though he was touching my scar his touch was still warm and comforting. I was surprised that I didn't flinch. Blake pulled his hand away and turned to face the opposite direction then Mary pulled the back of my nightgown down to my hips. I twisted over onto my stomach and put one arm next to each breast to cover them. When I felt the cold air touch my back after Mary pulled the nightgown down I flinched and grunted in pain, which I meant to hold back, but I couldn't anymore. In a blink of an eye Blake was at my side rubbing his fingers up and down my arms. We were looking at each other in the eyes and his eyes glanced over to my back and his eyes widened.
Blake looked at Mary with glowing eyes and his canines where coming out. He said in a deep voice "Get out.Now! I must speak with my mate!" Mary nodded and whispered to me " His wolf side has come out you must control him. You are his mate after all." Mary winked then left. Blake carefully brought his hand to the scar on my back and I flinched in pain. For the first time ever I was glad that I was in the tower because I let a scream escape my lips and sat up not caring about modesty. Blake started growling when I flinched. He stopped short when his gaze fell from my face to my breast. I quickly grabbed my blanket and wrapped myself in it. Blake blinked a few times. Then I remembers what Mary told me; that since I am Blake's mate, only I can calm him down.
I stood up with the blanket still wrapped around me. I walked over to Blake stood on my toes and whispered next to his ear, " Calm down, Blake. Shh...it's okay I'm fine. It's just still a little painful. Now, calm down. You need to control the wolf. Listen to your m-mate." I pulled away, my gaze went from his eyes to his mouth back to his eyes. Blake's eyes glowed even brighter, he growled and put his hands on my waist and squeezed but not hard enough to leave a mark. Blake pulled me closer to him. Our bodies were touching in places I didn't think that they should. Blake's eyes went back to normal and his canines were gone. He lowered his mouth next to my ear and whispered, " You are my mate and I will obey. Il mio amore." I looked at him confusion written all over my face. Blake chuckled, "It means My love in Italian, and yes I do love you I will not hide that from anyone. Mate."

I felt something awaken inside of me, and it felt like a dozen knives stabbing me all over my body. I shrieked in pain. Blake's eyes had worry in them. He called out to Mary. "Mary! Mary! Somethings wrong with Alexandria! Get over here, now!" Mary and Guillermo came rushing through, but Mary had Guillermo stay outside. He grumbled but obeyed.
Blake carried me over to my bed and Mary took the blanket of of me and I didn't care if Blake saw me, I was in too much pain.
"What's wrong with her,Mary?" Blake asked holding my hand. Mary sighed and smiled looking from Blake to me, "She's fine,but I'm guessing I should tell you this now. Alexandria is a wolf as well but is buried deep inside and only when you find your true mate will he or she will come out. The deeper the wolf is buried the more painful it is when the wolf surface." Then I fell asleep with Blake rubbing his thumb over my hand.

Authors note:

I know this chapter was a little boring but I've been awake since 5:30 am which is not normal for me so I'm exhausted and I've been in a car since yesterday afternoon. Plus I get carsick so the medicine I take makes me tired. So I apologize. By the way like I said in the last Chapter authors note about stealing ideas, the idea of the wolves and mates and bond and stuff is from the series 'The Grey Wolves' which I read on my phone. Anyways I just wanted to get that out there. Please comment and have a nice day/night. Hope you read my next chapter ;) ~Samantha S.
