The Helpless Mate

Chapter 3

I've lost all hope.

I'm a fool.

How could I think life would be better just because Jason called me his mate?

It was just in the heat of the moment, how he treated me.

He will surely reject me now.

Even if I scream and cry no one will care. No one will come to my rescue. No one cares about me. Eric will have his way with me and no one will care. I could kick and scream and hit but he doesn't care. My mate won't care, he'll just reject me.

No. One. Cares.

They never have. Why have I even stayed?! What did I stay for?! A pack that hates me? A brother who treats me like scum? A mate who who will surely reject me? Madam who forces me to do every chore and make every meal so SHE can get credit for it? For fear of being a rogue? I should've left, I should've ran. At least then I'd die a free wolf, instead of a slave.

Alexandra! Stop! There's more important things to be worrying about!

What does it matter? No one cares.

Our MATE cares! How do you think he will feel when he finds out we were raped and didn't even put up a fight?!

He will just reject me. He was gonna anyway, this will just give him another reason to.

ALEXANDRA! You know what?! I'm taking over!

Wait, what? No! You'll only make things worse!

Well, you're clearly not making things better!

My wolf pushed and shoved against the inside of my mind until she had taken control. I couldn't control myself, it was all my wolf. I sat in the back of my mind scared to death as she fought back.

My wolf screamed at the top of her lungs, which only earned another hit from Eric. She clawed and kicked and punched, but it was no use. She ripped out handfuls of his hair before scratching down the length of his face. She screamed again and then it all happened in a blur.

One second Eric was on top of me, the next he was wrestling with a brown and light orange wolf. My rescuer dug his claws into Eric's face then threw Eric against a tree. The wolf growled deeply in Eric's direction, causing Eric to bow his head in submission. It was at that moment for some reason my wolf decided to give me back control. The wolf then turned his attention towards me.

I quickly moved away until I backed up into a tree. The wolf started to prowl towards me. I curled up in a ball and shut my eyes tight. I then began to pray for mercy. Then a giant tongue licked my entire face before pulling away. I slowly opened my eyes to find the wolf transforming.

"Jason?" My voice broke as I said his name.

He didn't reply. Eric looked over at me in disbelief. Jason growled at Eric causing Eric's gaze to return to the grass. Jason threw me an oversized shirt before slipping on a pair of basketball shorts. I quickly stood up and pulled the shirt over my head which ended mid thigh.

"Eric, you are not to touch my mate. You are not to glance at her without my permission. You are not to talk to her without my permission. You're lucky I'm feeling generous today or you would already be dead," I swear if looks could kill, Eric would be six feet under by now.

"Yes, alpha Jason," I almost wanted to laugh at how pathetic Eric looked, almost.

Told ya! He loves us! He cares!
