Alexandria

Abby was cleaning my bullet wound. I kept screaming in agony that I was sure the whole village heard me.

Blake ended up leaving while Abby cleaned and removed the bullet. I won't lie I was pretty mad, I mean if he really was my mate he would be here trying to comfort me while I'm in pain.

Abby told me that Blake went to the market. Abby kept me company while Blake was gone and I was resting, she was really nice. She told me all kinds of stories about Blake. Apparently Blake, Abby, and Victor grew up together. A few years ago Blake ran away. Abby and Victor found out they were mates and got married and Abby is now pregnant with their baby, she hasn't had the chance to tell Victor.

A couple hours passed of Abby and I speaking. I was getting tired so Abby decided to leave me so I can sleep. I was just drifting off when I felt someone kiss me on the forehead and I knew it was Blake. He was turning to leave, I grabbed his hand the only light was was from the full moon.

Blake turned around and rushed over to me and started kissing pretty much all over my face, "Alexandria! You're okay, right? Oh please tell me you're okay." Blake pleaded. I softened for a second then I glared at him. I crossed my arms. "Where have you been Blake." I snapped. He looked taken aback for a moment but hid it quickly. "I've been at the market, I thought Abby told me she told you. What's wrong Alexandria." Blake asked with concern clearly in his eyes and voice. " Oh she told me. What I don't understand is that I was in pain and Abby was taking the bullet out of my leg and you decided that that was he best time to go to the market. Is there something wrong with you Blake! You thought, 'Hey, she's fine I'll just go to the market while Abby takes a bullet out of my screaming mate's leg'." After my rant I was breathing heavily.

Blake sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me warily. " Alexandria, I left because I couldn't take hearing you scream anymore. It was tearing me apart. I was ready to rip everyone's head off. I had to get out of there to calm down. I hated leaving you trust me I did but I had to leave. I'm sorry love, I'm sorry I wasn't there to comfort you. Please forgive me, Alexandria." Blake pleaded. I had tears starting to run down my face. " I'm sorry Blake. I'm sorry I said all that without hearing you out first. Please don't hate me." My shoulders were now shaking from my sobs.

I felt Blake wrap his arms around me and pulled me close to him. I buried my face into his chest. " I don't want to ever hear you say sorry to me when you are just voicing what you are thinking. Now please stop the tears and let me see your beautiful smile and those sparkling eyes of yours." Blake said pulling away. He put his fingers on my chin so I could look at him. When I did he gave me a goofy face that had me laughing. He smiled when he heard me laugh.

Soon his face got serious. His got got intense. His eyes kept going from my eyes to my lips and back to my eyes. Then he crashed his lips onto mine. It was gentle and sweet. After a few moments we pulled apart from each other. He leaned his forehead on mine. We were both breathless.

Blake laid down next to me after he took his boots off. We laid down in silence. Blake had one arm around me protectively and the other was holding a couple strands of my hair. My hands were wrapped around his waist snuggling close to him.

We spent about two hours like that then I drifted off to sleep. My last thoughts were of Blake and I laying in each other's arms.

Blake

I watched my mate sleeping peacefully. I sometimes used this time to go through her mind to see what she thinks or what she's dreaming about. I decided I'll let her be tonight and go over what she was yelling about to me. Why did she think I would just leave her while she's in pain? I was telling the truth when I said I was going to rip everyone's head off. I had to cool down.

So when I got to the market, I went to the jeweler and bought Alexandria a necklace. It took me a couple hours to find the right jeweler and the exact necklace I wanted and what I wanted. I got Alexandria a necklace that has an infinity on it. I also went to my 'mother' to do her magic voodoo on it that way no one can hurt her and no magic will hurt her and nobody can put another curse on her while she wears it.

I was planning something special for tomorrow. I was going to take her to the bast place I town and give it to her. It was going to be romantic and I was going to ask her a very important question.

I was snapped out of my thought when I heard Alexandria whimper. I looked at her and saw that she was still asleep. I looked into her thoughts and what I saw made me go past angry. It was a nightmare. Alexandria was having a nightmare of when the king, her father tortured her by slicing her with daggers at the exact places were her scars were. I couldn't watch anymore. I did the only thing I could think of; I soothed her.

I pulled Alexandria closer to me. I caressed her face and whispered in her ear, " It's okay, it's just a nightmare. You're okay. I won't let anything or anyone else hurt you." That seemed to calm her down. Alexandria just went back to sleep.

It still angered me knowing that her own parents would try and hurt her. At that moment I promised that I would get vengeance on the king and queen, if it was the last thing I did. No one will hurt my love, my mate, my Alexandria, ever again.
