A rogue's cry

Chapter 6

Chapter 6

I woke up in a warm bed. I opened my eyes and noticed I was in Damian's room. I looked around for him but I didn't see him. I sat up and stretched. I limped out of bed and out into the hallway. I heard a couple whispered voices coming from the kitchen. I sat on the stairs and listened.

"So is she your mate?" The beta asked.

"For the last time Daniel she's not" Damian replied. Wait what? Did he just-

"It sure does seem like it" Daniel said.

"No she's a rogue. She will be gone in a couple days. I'm glad she's not my mate though" My heart dropped to my stomach. My stomach is in knots. My heads spining. Is this what's it's like to get rejected? Cause I think that's just what happened. I crept back upstairs and packed my bag and slipped in a couple extra shirts. I put on my converse and wrote a note to him,

Dear Damian,

I heard what you said in the kitchen to Daniel. You don't want me as a mate? I'm just another rogue to you? I thought you were better than that. I guess I was wrong. Goodbye Damian. Have a nice life.

~Laila

I tip toed out to the balcony and lowered myself down to the ground. I made sure to land on my good leg. I took off into the woods, ignoring the pain in my ankle. I just needed to get as far away from him as I can get and hopfully he doesn't come looking for me.

The pressure I was putting on my leg was making it bleed more. I was going to finish this quest Emily and I have started. I was going to do it, for her and mostly my family. I stopped and stripped off my clothes. I shifted as I ran. My stitches have came undone and was hurting so bad. I stopped when I heard a growl in front of me. I looked around but didn't see anyone.

"Does Alpha Damian know you have left?" Austin asked coming out of the trees.

"No and let's keep it that way" Austin looked at me.

"Why are you running away?" He asked. I could tell he was mind linking with Damian right now. I need to make a break for it and fast.

"Because, I heard them in the kitchen saying things I wasn't ment to hear"

"Like"

"Ask your Alpha, I need to be on my way" I took off past him. He grabbed my arm and threw me on the ground. He was aggressive. I screamed as the exposed bone in my leg cracked. Not even a minute later Damian was at my side.

"We need to get her to the pack doctor" Daniel said. Damian started to pick me up,

"Don't touch me" I growled at him. He looked hurt by my words but other wise ignored them and continued to pick me up. He ran back to the mansion.

He ran threw the yard and to a little house next door. He went inside and set me down on one of the multiply beds sitting in the living room. An older lady came down the stairs and looked at us

"Oh my" She said rushing to my side and inspecting the wound. "Leave" He adressed to Damian and the pack. I didn't even looked at Damian as he tried to stay with me. Another lady lead them to the door.

The lady gave me some sleeping pills before she started working on me, I let sleep take over me,

I woke up feeling dizzy. I looked over at the clock and it was 4am. I looked over and Damian was alseep next to me with his head on my bed. I needed to confront him about what happened. I didn't want to wake him up though. I tried to get more comfortable on the lumpy bed. I stayed very still when Damian started to stir.

"Damian" I whispered. His eyes snapped open and he looked at me.

"Laila" he whispered caressing my cheek. I leaned into his touch. "Why did you run?" He asked. He sounded so hurt.

"You didn't get my note?" I asked. He shook his head. I sighed.

"I came downstairs this morning and you can Daniel were talking" I looked up at him. I grabbed his hand and played with his fingers. "He asked if I was your mate, You said no and that your glad I'm not your mate. Just another rogue" I finished and looked up at him. A smiled played on his lips.

"Laila, I wasn't talking about you! Those rogue's that came when I was stitching you back up, there was a girl in there that was taking a total interest in me. Daniel for some reason thought I was doing the same and thought we were mates" He smiled and kissed my nose. I smiled for the first time all day.

"So I am your mate? You want me as a mate?" I asked

"Yes, I couldn't imagine anyone else to be my mate, but you" He gental kissed my lips. "Now get some sleep, you need it" He kissed me one more time before I shut my eyes and drifted back to sleep.
