Picture of Ryker.
I wake up to the sound of something beeping. I try to force my eyes open but they wouldn't budge. What happened? I try to remember what happened when everything comes flooding back to me. Dave almost raped me? Then some guy saved me... They called him "Alpha" The voices around me suddenly stop, and I realized I said that out loud.
"Open your eyes beautiful" I hear from the right of me. I try harder to open my eyes and finally succeed. I look around me to see two guys to my left and the guy from before to my right. I look at him to see his piercing blue eyes staring into my green ones. Wait, weren't his eyes black before. I look at him confused as he smiles at me.
"How are you feeling?" He asks his minty breath fanning my face. "Good." I whisper. "Thank you." He gently moves my hair out of my face. His fingers brush my cheek sending tingles throughout my body "It's my job to protect you, sweetheart." I blush at the nickname.
'Where am I?" I start to sit up only to be held back by this mysterious man. "My pack's house" I look at him confused. "Pack's?" When I say that he mimics my expression and looks at one of the guys on the other side of me with sandy blond hair. He just shrugs his shoulders at him. "What's your name, Sweetheart?" He says looking back at me.
"Arabella." I whisper looking away from him. I could feel him staring at me. "Well, Arabella I'm Ryker, I have a few things I need to take care of. In the meantime I'll leave you with the doctor." I watch him as he walks out of the room leaving me with the sandy blond haired guy.
"I guess I should introduce myself. I'm Hans the pack's doctor, you hit your head quite hard and now have a slight concussion." He says making a weird face at the last part. He says pack again and everything is kind of confusing me. what do they mean by pack? That's usually like a group right? Shit! What time is it?? My dad is going to kill me, literally. I glance around the room in search for a clock, but find none.
"U-um, Hans?" He looks up from the paperwork he was doing and stares at me through his glasses. "W-what time is it?" He checks his watch before quickly saying 9:30 p.m. and returning his attention back to his paperwork. I have to get out of here. "I have to pee." I bluntly say, knowing it's only a lie. Hans sighs " The door right across from this room is the bathroom, don't take too long."
I get off of the hospital type bed and make my way over to the door. I glance back at Hans before quickly stepping out of the room and into the bathroom across the long hall. I lock the door behind my and step up to the sink, debating on whether to look into the mirror or not. I finally just look up and stare at the girl looking back at me. My skin was dirty from being on the ground, tangles and twigs stuck in my hair, and bruises. Some were new, but some were now yellow from trying to heal.
I sigh at my appearance. I turn the facet on and throw cold water on my face. I glance around the room looking for a window, but with me having no luck there isn't one. "shit" I whisper. I decided to go ahead and try to use the restroom. After finishing my business I walk back to the room I was in before. Hans looked up at me from a desk he was sitting at and smiled. "I was starting to get worried" Not really knowing what to say back i just walk back to the bed I was on.
"Are you hungry?" Hans asked me. I shake my head, knowing I wont be able to eat it. He quickly roams his eyes up and down my body, making me shiver. "I apologize," he quickly said. "You just seem underweight" I look down at his statement. "I'm not hungry." I whisper. He just nods his head then looks like he's having a conversation with himself in his head. I look down and start picking at my nails, it's a nervous habit. soon I hear the door open and the guy from earlier walks back in.
He throws a smile my way, "Hey there, beautiful." I look down again from embarrassment. He frowns but continues to make his way towards Hans. I peep up at them a few times as they're having their conversation trying to make out what they're saying, but sadly I can't really hear them. Which is very weird, because I usually can hear very well. What is my father thinking right now? If that sick bastard is even awake. Excuse my french, but I hate that man. He does nothing but torture me, and make me hate myself. He doesn't care about anybody bu-.. "Arabella!" I shot my head up at the sound of my name being yelled. Hans and Ryker were standing there staring at me. "Yes?" I say softly.
"I'm going to take you into my room so you can have a shower, alright?" I nod my head at him and slowly got up. He reaches for my hand, but I quickly move my hand out of his reach. He frowns but continues to lead me further into the hall. After a minute of walking he stops in front of a room and opens the door before walking in. I walk in after him and glance around. The room was huge. It had a white dresser, white carpet, red couch and the bed set was red satin. There was a flat screen over the dresser as well, but what I admired was the corner bookshelf across the room. "So, I don't really have any clothes that will fit you well but I managed to find something that will at least stay on you." He said while holding out some clothes for me. I took the clothes from him and thanked him before walking into the bathroom that was across the room.
I looked at the clothes Ryker had given me seeing that it was a pair of sweats and a T-shirt, which looked to be too small for him. I undress myself dodging the mirror above the sink so I wouldn't have to look at myself. I turned the water temperature to warm and got in. I put my head and body under the water letting it cascade down my body. I shiver as it quickly warms me. After standing there for a while I decide to wash my hair and body. I scrub at the dirt and rinse myself off. I get out of the shower and dry myself off with a towel that was hanging up. I put Ryker's clothes on and finger comb my hair to try and tame it. I walk out of the bathroom and notice Ryker wasn't there. I walk over to his book shelf to see what books he had. I smile as I see a couple of my favorite classics. I run my fingers across the spines of a few books, admiring them.
The door suddenly opens and I jump, but I quickly calm myself seeing that it's only Ryker. He was holding a plate of food, which made my stomach turn. "I'm sorry beautiful, I ran down to the kitchen to grab some food for you." He motioned for me to sit on the bed, I quickly obeyed not knowing what'd he do if I didn't. He sat the plate beside me and I looked down at it. "Hans told me you said you weren't hungry, but I think it'd be best if you ate at least a little of it." He said softly. I look at the plate deciding on what I could probably eat. There was a side of fruits so I slowly ate them as he watched me. After I had finished the fruits he took the plate back and put in a movie to watch.
I suggested beauty and the beast which he laughed at for some reason but put in anyways. Right now we were both sitting on the bed but we had distance between us. For some reason I wanted to move closer to him, like I was being pulled to him. I glanced up at him admiring his sharp jaw as he watched the movie. "You know, it's not polite to star." I quickly look down, not wanting him to be angry with me. He puts his hand under my chin making me look at him, "I was only joking, beautiful." He whispers. I look into his captivating eyes as he stars back into mine. His face was centimeters from mine and I wanted to move closer. He caresses my cheek before moving into a lying position. "We may need to get to sleep, you have a big day tomorrow." I look at him weirdly. "Big day?" I question. "Tomorrow you'll go shopping for clothes and other necessities."
"Why would I need clothes here?" I asked confused. "Because you'll be staying here with me." He says and motions for me to lie down. I wanted to object about me staying here, but I didn't want to make him angry. I lie next to him but not close enough to touch. When I get settled Ryker grabs me and moves me closer to him and wraps his arms around me. I freeze not knowing if he was going to hurt me. "Relax beautiful and get some rest." Ryker whispers in my ear. I do as hes said and take a deep breath before quickly falling asleep to the hum of Ryker's faint snores.
