Part 21 (2) Mirrorsxoxo810

Maddix followed Addie outside. The crisp summer air hit him, and with his heightened senses he could smell the woods from here. The smell of wood, grass, leaves and bark calmed him. Maddix needed this calming feeling, that way it would be easier to sort out things with Addie.

“Addie, wait,” Maddix called, catching up to her quickly. She just quickened her pace feeling the urge to shift overtake her. In her old pack, before she and her brother left there was no such thing as a mate. Yes, there was the mate principle, but the Alpha choose who you were ultimately with. He was an evil man who would purposely keep you away from your mate. He told his pack that mates were bad, he brainwashed them into believing everything he said.

When she reached the woods she immediately exploded into her wolf form. She couldn’t deal with Maddix right now. Not after what she had just witnessed. Not after what she had just been through.

Last night was the worst night of Addie’s life. Her and her brother Seth had been planning to leave their pack for months. Their Alpha was away on business, and nobody knew of this plan but the two of them. They waited until it was dark and fled for freedom. It wasn’t long before someone realized they were missing. Someone from the pack alerted the Alpha. Two of the pack members were ordered to kill Addie and her older brother.

Seth was pretty strong and he fought both of them off as long as he could so Addie could get away. It was the hardest thing imaginable to leave her brother behind. Addie knew he was going to die as soon as she began to flee.

She’d gone back to the place she’d left him. Addie saw his lifeless body lying in the middle of the deserted road. His right paw covered his heart. That had always been the siblings’ sign of love towards one another. Addie howled when she realized the last thing her brother had done was say ‘I love you’, in their own special way.

‘Addie, just talk to me,’ Maddix pleaded, stepping in her way.

‘No, please move,’ Even as she thought the words she knew she wouldn’t make it much farther. Her legs were shaking so badly and she knew they would give way. Her heart was so heavy with grief she could barely think. She couldn’t focus on her mates wolf form even if she wanted to. Addie just wanted to die and be in heaven with her brother. She wanted this grueling pain that was both physical and mental to stop. Addie wanted to give up.  

‘Addie please angel,’ He made his way toward her nuzzling her neck softly. She fell to the ground in a big heap. His touch was overpowering making her feel the slightest bit fainter, even in her wolf form.

Maddix laid down beside her resting his chin against her back.

‘Maddix, it hurts so much. I- I left him and he died. He died to save me and I want to die, too.’

Maddix growled low and deep.

‘Addie you’re mine and you’re not going anywhere,’ Maddix practically screamed inside her head. Addie whimpered making Maddix close his eyes tight.

‘Maddix make it go away. Just- just make it stop.’

Maddix knew what his mate wanted. He didn’t even have to ask what she meant. She wanted to be bonded to him completely. He shifted to his human form, and hovered above her when she shifted too. He took her face in his right hand and gently caressed her cheek. She shivered from the touch, a shaky breath escaping her pale lips.

“I love you, Addie. Even though we don’t know each other well, we will eventually. I’ll always be here for you, and your brother would want you to live, angel. He would want you to be happy, I promise.”

Maddix didn’t know the full story, but he didn’t need to. He’d put the pieces together himself.

His life mission now was to make his mate happy again, and kiss away all her pain.

Okay guys… I really hope you like this. Sorry, I don’t do sex scenes, but I hope you liked the ending to this short story anyway. It’s not my best work, but I didn’t want to drag it out and make it boring or annoying.  Please comment and vote if you enjoyed this and any song suggestions would be great. :D <3
