Chloe shakily walked into her room and layed face down on her pillow hoping it would muffle her crying. "Chloe are you ok?" Ryan asked as he opened the door. She quickly wiped her eyes and nodded slightly. Ryan sat next to her on the bed and looked at her. Her eyes were red and puffy since she was just crying and every so often a stray tear would fall down her face. "Chloe please talk to me," He said looking deep into her eyes, "I want to help you if only you would just let me." She looked at him then down in her lap."He's hurt me so much over the years. It all started when my mom died. Once she died he started to drink and abuse me. The first time he smashed a beer bottle on the back of my neck. I think I still have the scar." She told him turning her back to him and lifting her hair over her shoulder to show him the back of her neck. Ryan looked closely at her neck and saw a faint scar along the back of her neck.

She moved her hair back and faced Ryan. "Chloe I'm so sorry I had no idea what he did to you." He said sympathetically with his hand comfortingly on her shoulder. "I may not be able to change the past but I promise as long as I'm here he won't hurt you in the future. Now please try and get some sleep we have to go to school tomorrow." He said and she nodded.Ryan was about to get up when Chloe held his arm. "Ryan will you stay? It doesn't have to be all night, but I feel safer next to you." She said/asked fear clearly present in her eyes. He smiled sweetly at her and layed down with her. She cuddled into his chest hiding her face from view. He held her close and his arms were protectively around her. "Good night Ryan." She said sleepily. "Good night Chloe and sweet dreams." He replied and soon fell asleep with her in his arms.
The next morning
Chloe's P.O.V.
"Everyone up! Time to get ready for school!" Headmaster Danielle called from downstairs. I groaned slightly and tried to get up but felt a strong pair of arms around me. I panicked and started to thrash and scream. Once I felt the persons arms losses I ran into the closest and hid in the deep in the back corner with my knees up to my chest. I heard the door open and I sat frozen in fear.
"NO NO NO I DIDNT MEAN IT PLEASE DONT HURT ME IM SO SORRY JUST PLEASE DONT HURT ME!!" I screamed as I clenched my eyes shut. I heard someone approach me but I kept my eyes shut.
"Look at how pathetic she is. The little scud bag is crying, AGAIN." I heard Natalie say making me cry more. She laughed and continued "Hey loser Headmaster wants you to hurry up we're all waiting on you." Her and her friends walked away laughing and whispering about me.
Ryan soon walked in and knelt down in front of me and he lightly put his hands on my shoulders. "Chloe look at me." He said firmly and I did as he asked ignoring the tears streaming down my face. "What happened just now? I woke up with you asleep and peaceful in my arms then all of a sudden you're thrashing and screaming bloody murder. Please talk to me." He said and something in his eyes let me relax. I hugged him and cryed into his chest.
"I t-t-though you were him." I managed to choke out. He hugged me tighter and we sat there then Natalie came in.
"TWERP HURRY UP LETS GO STOP CRYING AND GET DRESSED!" She yelled. Ryan let go of me and turned to face her. "Honestly Ryan I have no idea what you see in that little brat. She's a waste of both your time and orphanage space, but I could definitely be worth your time." She said in a flirtatious voice. I cried harder knowing she was right.
"DONT TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT!! GET OUT OF HER ROOM NOW BEFORE YOU REGRET IT!!" Ryan making both me and Natalie jump. She scoffed and walked out. Ryan picked me up off the ground and I saw his eyes were so dark they were black. He smiled and I smiled back. "Don't let her get to you she has no idea what she's talking about." He said and I blushed. He used his thumb to wipe the tears from my eyes. He looked in my eyes and I looked into his. Before I could proses what was happening he leaned down and kisses me at first I didn't kiss back because of the shock but the I soon started returning his actions. He pulled away and I blushed. I moved my head and looked to my side. "I'm so sorry but I could help myself." He said.
"I-I-it's ok." I said unable to proses why he kissed me or why he actually cares about me. I remembered that we had to get ready for school. "Ryan we have to get ready for school or else we'll get in trouble. He nodded and ran downstairs most likely to get his suitcase and his clothes. I quickly got dressed in the bathroom and brushed both my teeth and my hair. Iran downstairs but me being the stupid cults I am fell down the stairs again for the second time this week.
"CHLOE!" Ryan yelled as everyone laughed. I got up and ran as fast as I could before Ryan could get to me crying. I ran to my room and slammed the door then I jumped onto my bed burring my face into my pillow. Ryan opened the door and sat on my bed next to me after he closed the door. He rubbed my back and shifted slightly. "Chloe I need to tell you something." He said oh boy her it comes. "I know what you are and I know you know what I am myself." He said and I stopped crying and became very scared. "I sware I won't hurt you ever. Do you want to know why?" He asked and sat up and nodded. "It's because you're my mate and my job it to protect you." He replied and I sat there in shock barely able to breathe. Me of all people? His mate? This can't be happening right now.
