Delano (BWWM)

We're Both Screwed, But Me More Than You

I'm actually kinda irritated.

I feel like Amanda skipped out on some important, key, information.

Like the fact that her brother is a psychopath.

And that rejecting your mate has some dire consequences.

For example: imminent death.

After I saw those red eyes, I didn't stay to see what would happen next. Next thing you know, I'm running down the hallway and jumping out an open window.

Next thing I know, Amanda is running right next to me.

 I can't blame her, though. This rejection was a team effort; meaning that we were both screwed, as a team.

I didn't really know where I was running, but that wasn't the real issue here. The real issue was that Delano was close on our tails and knocking down a few trees along with him. He kept roaring my name.

As if that was going to make me stop and submit to him. Last time I checked, I wasn't ready to be mauled to death.

My legs were burning like crazy, but I couldn't allow myself to get caught. Not again.

"This way!" Amanda said to me as she turned left through a line of trees.

I just happen to catch a glimpse of the scene behind me. There was a large dark wolf chasing after us. Its eyes were red. I knew that it was Delano.

I was stopped abruptly when I ran into Amanda. She had stopped in the middle of the woods.

"What are you doing?" I screamed at her. "There is a maniac chasing after us!"

"No, we're safe here." she said calmly.

I turned to look and saw that the monster of a wolf had stopped running and was pacing back and forth irritated. It was like there was an invisible wall stopping him from coming after us.

Before I could ask, Amanda explained.

"We're in another pack territory."

Great. More werewolves.

Amanda tapped my shoulder and ushered me to follow her deeper into the woods. I took one last look at the wolf and turned to follow her.

Not too long into our walk I heard rustling and saw a bunch of men and women surrounding us. No doubt some werewolves. A tall man with olive skin and short curly hair stepped forward.

"What are you doing here, Pike?"

So these two know each other.

"Looking for protection." she replied coolly.

The mystery man raised an eyebrow. "From who?" he asked genuinely curious.

"My brother."

"What the fuck did you do?" the man asked irritated.

Just then, we heard a loud howl from where Amanda and I left Delano.

"She rejected him." Amanda pointed at me. "And I helped her do it."

Immediately everyone's eyes were on me.

"Hi." I said nervously, shifting from one foot to another.

Thanks Amanda.

"So, what you're saying..." alpha Trevor started.

"Is that you rejected Alpha Delano, ran away, and now want a place to stay."

We both nodded our heads.

The alpha rubbed his face as if it almost hurt to look at us.

"Listen, Amanda. Your brother and I have been mutual friends for a while. Our packs have an alliance. I can give you a place to stay for a little while, but I can't keep you here forever. Withholding you from Delano is like an act of war against him. I don't want a war."

"I understand." she responded.

"I will give you rooms, food, clothing, and freedom to move around. However, not for long."

We both nodded our heads again.

I was just grateful that someone was willing to help us out.

"Oh, and I should warn you." Amanda started.

"She's also a hunter." she said as she pointed at me.

Once again, all eyes turned to me.

"Fuck, Amanda! Do you always have to throw me under the bus?" I asked incredulously.

"As of right now, we're both under the fucking wheel." she said with a shrug of her shoulder.

She wasn't wrong.

After that the alpha 'assigned' me a guard. Just to make sure I didn't kill anyone.

That night, Amanda and I laid in our beds. A deep silence surrounded us.

"Oh shit." I said after a while.

"What?" she asked.

"Today's my birthday." I said in realization.

"Well, happy birthday."

"Thanks."

None of us slept that night. Actually, I don't think anyone within a mile radius did, because the sound of a wolf howling kept us awake.

It made me feel like a sucky person.
