Chapter 5 Charlotte

I woke up feeling drozy more so than usual and my body felt sore. Opening my eyes I was met with a black curtains and dark maroon bedroom walls. This was defenetly not my temporary bedroom. When I tried to kick the sheets off I felt a buzzing pain in my left ankle.

"Your awake" how was it that I hadn't noticed Marcus was in the room with me. He was leaning against the wall opposite to the door usually my wolf would always alert me when he was near by but strangely she hadn't . Looking over at him I didn't see the scary male everyone else saw. His hair was devilish as if he'd been running his hand through it over and over again. He was shirtless not that it truly mattered since he was usually shirtless. Something that bothered me when other females where around.

"I- where's Isabelle" he sighted walking over and sitting on the bed.

"She's safe" I knew he wasn't a man of many words. It was something I had picked up during my stay but she's safe wasn't enough for me. I wanted no needed to know where my child was. She should have been here with me. "She's with Sierra" he added calming my racing heart.

"It wasn't my intention-" I began to say but cut myself off. "I should have left a long time ago. I'm only causing problems. I'll take whatever punishment-" Markus pulling me into his lap and attacking my lips with his was the last thing I expected to happen but It did. Or maybe I was just imagining it more like fantasizing. That would explain why my wolf hadn't sensed him. Even with the doses of Suppressors I allowed doctor Hailey to inject me with my wolf always sensed when Markus was around.

"Mine" he growled out. Yep I was defenetly fantasizing. Might as well enjoy it. I rearranged myself so I was straddling him and kissed him with all the pent up frustration I had kept bottled up. Wrapping my arms around his neck and running my fingers through his hair. It was much softer than I thought it would be but then again this was only a dream a fantasy caused by my subconscious.

"I wish this was real" I muttered after pulling away from the heated kiss and rested my head on his chest. "But I know it's not" holding onto him as if my life depended on it. Now I knew why my wolf hadn't alerted me off his presence. It was because he wasn't really near me.

Opening my eyes I was meet with the same blank white wall I had seen when I woke up in the Infirmary. Looking out the window I noticed the sky getting darker which only meant it was almost time for me to go to work. Getting off of the bed I tested my ankle but it felt fine times like this I was grateful for werewolf healing. Specially my version since it seemed that I healed twice as fast as normal werewolves. Which meant I need a stronger dose, I'm just glad Doctor Hailey had waited until after I healed to administrate it.

"Your awake, I was just about to call in sick for you" Luna Sierra informed me when I ran into her in the hall out side the Infirmary with Isabelle in her arms and Clayton walking next to her.

"I'm glad I ran into you Luna Sierra, I wanted to thank you for your hospitality and kindness. You helped me see the good in people again I didn't want to leave without saying that to you" i was grateful and would always be grateful for what she'd done for Isabelle and me. She'd taken us in without hesitation,  if it wasn't for her the little trouble maker in my arms would have most likely lost her hearing,.

"If this is about earlier, You don't have to leave , Alton will never bother you again you have my word " Luna Sierra  looking genuinely sad about us leaving. I could tell she'd gotten close with Isabelle same goes for Isabelle which made it that much harder but this had to be done.

"We've been here long enough, It's time for us to go, I'll pick Isabelle up after work" taking Isabelle into our temporary room I kept to our normal routine of getting her ready for bed. It was still early a quarter till eight when Isabelle fell asleep. I was already dresses in my usual black shorts and long sleeve  skin tight high collared shirt and  packing what little things we had. All the important things where in the trunk of my car. Thats when I remember my car wouldn't start and I had to be at the bar in half an hour. Carrying the two duffle bags to my car I tried to remember how Harry had managed to get the car to start but apparently I didn't need to because when I turned the key the old bug came to life without any trouble. I clearly remembered how it wouldn't start earlier when I had tried to run away but now it was working perfectly. Markus must have gotten to it, I didn't have enough time to question or ponder his intentions much since it was a 15 minute drive to bar and I was already running late.
