Married Mate

Chapter 12

Gabriel's POV

So many thoughts and emotions were going through me. I replayed everything that happened the other day in my mind. From me thinking jasmine was suddenly going to seduce me; which by the way I was completely wrong, she ended up kicking me in my balls. To her trying to kill me by running me over with a pack members BMW. 

 If it wasn't for Lucas taking over and breaking us out of my shocked state, I would be road kill right now. But I'm still angry with him for slipping up and telling her we love her so early in. Hopefully she didn't catch that part... Hopefully.

I was feeling betrayed, hurt, angry, sad but even through all that I kind of understand where she was coming from. I did after all bring her to an unfamiliar place and try to keep her from leaving. And to top it all off, I shifted in front of her without even warning her what I was going to do. The look she had given me before screaming and passing out was a look you only gave a monster. 

 Is that what she saw me as, a monster... a kidnapping monster? I could hear Lucas whimpering in pain at the thought of our mate seeing us as a monster. "I know man, It hurts" I whispered.  All my life I've heard and seen of situations where wolves find their mates but the mate isn't always willing to go with them so they just kidnap them and then the mate has no other choice but to accept  them and falls in love and blah blah happily ever after!

So why can't this be one of those cases? It's been 4 days since she passed out from seeing me shift. Her phone has been going off like crazy, lance and someone called Abby has been calling her on and off.

Hopefully she wakes up soon; I just want to be able to love her without her refusing me. I want to have the kind of love my parents had for each other. That's all I've ever wanted...

Jasmine's POV

I jerk awake hyperventilating and in a cold sweat; my eyes slowly start adjusting to the darkness, the only light coming into the room is of the open bay windows letting in the moons glow. I had a horrible nightmare of a huge black werewolf with amber eyes attacking me and ripping out my throat. Thank goodness it was only a dream! I seriously need to lay off watching all these damn Twilight movies & Teen Wolf Episodes.

Sighing, I Look around and realize the room looks oddly familiar, then it hits me like a ton of bricks... I'm still in Gabriel's room! Wait I could've sworn I had already tried to escape, I kicked him in the balls if I recall correctly. I giggle at the thought; I'm really a... what do young kids call it now and days?

Ahh yes a "bad bitch" that can take care of herself. But then again I'm still in this god forsaken house! I bring my knees to my chest and hug on tight. My head is still pounding and all these questions dancing around in my mind isn't helping. How long was I passed out for? Has anyone noticed I've been missing? Has Lance tried to call me? Where the hell is my cell phone?

I must have a ton of missed calls from clients. Oh my goodness my clients!! I had more than a handful of photo sessions lined up for this whole week! I start to cry hysterically into my arms. Sitting up straight I then realize something that only makes me cry even more... I'm going to be one of those girls that you see on the pin board in the entrance of Wal-Mart with a bold HAVE YOU SEEN ME above my photo. No one ever finds those poor people!

I hear a faint howl outside in the distance, was that a... "Naww" I say shaking my head. Werewolves don't exist in real life, only in the movies. I keep repeating that I'm my mind while wiping away my tears not knowing who I was trying to convince. 

A light knock snaps me out of my private debate, slowly the door opens and a girl's face appears.

"Oh I didn't think you were awake already, I'll go get Gabriel". "NO!" I said almost yelling. "Please come in, sit with me." I patted the empty space next to me not knowing why I was asking a total stranger to accompany me, for all I know she could be a part of this evil kidnapping plot. Oh well company is company.
