Unknown to the princess and her mate

Chapter 23-finding out

Kate's POV

It's been a few weeks now since I was back on my feet, Derek and myself have worked things out. I don't blame him for feeling like he was, I have not been truly honest with him about my past.

Today's the day where I am going to tell Derek about my past, if I didn't tell him now then I would never tell him.

Lee said only the truth about everything will make Derek understand, yet I wasn't sure if he would.

Right now I'm walking towards Derek office, he as been in there for days. Knocking on the door I walk into the office, finding Derek working on his laptop.

"Hey princess what's up" he says without looking up, I walk over to sit on his knee.

"I think it's time you knew the truth" I say bitting my bottom lip, making Derek growl at my action. He nods his head telling me to go ahead.

"So as you know Patrick was working along with my mother, what you didn't know was Patrick was someone from my past." I say while letting him take it all in.

"It all started back when I was 15, Patrick was the high school football captain. He was also my best friend along with my brothers, we would always hang out. It wasn't until after a few months he became more protected over me, at first I didn't think much over it. Then one day we was alone waiting for my brother to get back, that when he came in to me." I pause looking into Derek's eyes seeing him take it all in, his arms tighten around me as if he knew what I was about to say.

"At first I laughed it off as friends do, then out of no where he had me by the throat. He told me I would be his no matter what, all I could do was nod my head. For weeks I tried to act like nothing was going on, that I was happy being with him. But one day things took a turn for the worst, h-he wanted us to actually mate and become mates."

By now tears rolled down my face as I recall all the times Patrick hit me, all the times he would try control me.

Derek holds me against him whispering sweet nothing in my ears, calming my worked up body.

"That day he beat me so bad, I didn't think I would ever make it. After Lee found me and found out what he had done, my father banished him for good. I hadn't seen him until the day he took me, what makes it worse is knowing my mother was behind all from the beginning." My heart ached and I knew Derek could feel all my emotions, I felt him shake in anger. If it wasn't for the fact I was sat on his knees the office would be destroyed.

"Everything is going to be ok, I'm just glad you told me. I just wish you had told me from the beginning, made I could of stopped all this." I shook my head no.

"How could you of done that when all along she was behind it, she knew what was going to happen. Good she was the one who wanted me to marry him" I couldn't help but feel betrayed, yet I didn't know what's to feel.

After my talk with Derek I thought it was time to face her, I needed answers and not just the ones I've heard.

Walking down to the dragons I could smell the blood as soon as I opened the doors, yet I carried on walking until I came to where she was.

What I saw made me sick to my stomach, she was chained to the walls blood coated her skin. Her long blonde hair now dirty from been here, she looked skinny then before. Her eyes holding nothing in them, she looked near to death.

Opening the cell door I walk inside holding my head up high, I wouldn't show her any weakness.

"Come to gloat have we" she whispers out.

"Not really, I think you know why am here" I say taken the chair near the door and sitting on it with the back bit facing the front.

"Why his dead what's does it matter, you got what you wanted" I knew she would be like this so I called the guards, they came in with just what I wanted.

"You think him been gone is enough, I know someone else is in on it with you" I saw shock in her eyes, as if she didn't think I knew.

"How"

"I have my sources, so you going to tell me who" I say playing with my knife that my father had got for me.

She doesn't say a word just looks down at the floor, taking that as a no I walk over to her. I pull her head back by her hair, placing my knife near her neck.

"Tell me who else" I hiss out at her feeling my wolf coming forward.

"You want answers why don't you ask your so called best friend, you think you knew everything yet you knew nothing" she spits out at me.

Without thinking I sliced her throat open making blood splash out everywhere, I didn't care anymore I've had enough of game playing.

I knew who she meant by best friend, the one I didn't think much about. Now I knew why I hadn't seen her, when I do whole hell is going to break free.

I'm coming for you and you best be ready, my wolf wants blood and better yet the one and only, my very own best friends Zara's.
