My Forced To Marry Mate ✔

Chapter 18

Evangeline

I was eating a plate of eggs and ham. I had bread to the side and a glass of milk. I've never eaten much seeing as I always ate little. But I've been oddly hungry these past days. I didn't know why and no one questioned. They never made comments, in fact, they gave me the food.

Its been two days I haven't seen Blake or Wes. I couldn't say I was glad. My body has been craving Blake. My mind has been begging to see Wes. I was so filled with emotions, I didn't know how I handled it. I didn't know why this was happening. I didn't know why I threw up yesterday. I didn't know a thing.

Joel has made me visit him at least twice each day. He said Blake told him so, but I knew he was checking something. I also noticed my body changing. My breasts were growing and my ass was growing, too. But that was normal, right? I heard your body changed when a man touched it, that had to be it, right?

It had to.

Soon, I was sitting in the living room with a book in my hands. I could hear small talk on every corner. I could feel eyes on me. I tried to focus on the book but I couldn't. "Luna" someone said. I looked up and Lakes was looking at me. I looked around the room- Dustin and the others were gone. "Luna, I need to ask you something".

I sat up gulping. Now I knew that it was Wes's pack I heard making small talk. I shook my head slowly, "Lakes, they will hear" I said silently, looking around. I met his eyes again, "They always do".

"Is it true you are starting to... love Alpha Blake?" he growled.

My heart beat quickened as I looked at the door, often. "No. Yes. I don't know! He's kept me alive. Yes, he hurts me, Lakes, but he wants me. Wes never let me explain what happened to me".

"He was hurt and angered" a pack warrior said.

"Luna, you have to understand it by his point of view" Lakes said.

A tear slid down my cheek. "Lakes, its too late. Can't you see? Can't he see? I belong to Blake. He'd kill me if I leave him" I said as another tear slid down my cheek. I wiped it away, "And even if I wanted to, it would be useless. Blake took everything from me. He destroyed anything I had inside of me. I've nothing worth fighting for now. Wes rejecting me made me realize that love doesn't exist. I have to live with Blake, at his side" I said.

"Luna" Lakes said, taking a step. "Alpha wants you. He wants you at his side. Can't you see its killing him seeing you in the arms of his brother!?".

"Its not my fault!" I said. "I didn't want to be wed. I didn't want to be forced to mate. I didn't want to be rejected! It happened and I can't change that. I can't change the fact that my mate rejected me because I was wed to his brother!" I snapped.

The silence around me was thick and deafening. "What?" a voice asked. I looked to the door sharply, wide eyed. Dustin stood there, fists clenched. "Alpha Wes is your mate?" he growled.

"Dustin-" I started.

"And here I thought he was a good fucking man" he growled. "How dare he!? Alpha Blake will surely find out-".

"Dustin, please" I begged silently. "He will kill him".

"You worry for him after he rejected you?" he asked.

"And not only him" I said. "You know what he'll do to me. I did after all hide it from him. Please, Dustin. I didn't say for a reason".

"And yet you let him close to you?" he growled. "Just when you said you cared for him?".

"I did not lie about my feelings, Dustin" I said sitting up. "I do care about Blake. Yes, Blake will never be my mate, but I do care deeply for him. Wes might be my mate, but he destroyed anything we could ever have when he rejected me. I am not saying I think of Wes. Because in all truth, the only person I've been thinking these days is Blake".

Dustin ran his fingers through his hair, "What are you going to do about this, eh? Keep hiding it? It will only make matters worse, Luna".

I gulped, "I know it will, Dustin, but please understand. You still have no mate. It is not easy. I have to keep it secret. Even if I don't want Wes anymore..." I closed my eyes and let out a shudder. "...my wolf is still attached to him. She knows he hurt us, but she can't let him go. I've tried to do so but he'll always be a part of her. Her pain is killing me inside. I can't control her sometimes, Dustin".

"Luna, you think Alpha can control his wolf?" Lakes asked.

"Watch your mouth when speaking to her!" Dusting growled.

"You watch how you speak to her!" Lakes shot back.

"Enough!" I said, and paused to take deep breaths. "Please. Please do not fight over this. I care about both packs. I can't afford to loose your kindness" I said looking at Dustin and at Lakes. "I know its all my fault".

"How would you have known this would happen to you?" Lakes asked.

"I didn't" I answered.

.

The third day, we were gathered around in the living room. I wasn't feeling well that morning. I had just puked whatever I ate from the day before. I hadn't eaten breakfast and according to Joel, I was pale.

"Luna, you have to eat something" Joel said for the millionth time.

My thoughts were on Blake. I couldn't believe I missed him. I missed his rough touch and his gentleness. Yes, he has changed for me. Blake only needed someone in his life to love him... and I think I was the one.

"I'll just throw it up" I said, curling on my side on the couch. My arms were around myself as pain spread every so often. "What's wrong with me?" I asked.

Joel looked at Dustin then back at me. "I am-".

"Not the best person to tell me" I interrupted. I nodded slowly, "I see".

"Luna, I really have no say in this" Joel said. "Neither does Dustin or anyone else in this room".

I frowned. "Its not like I'm pregnant" I growled. "Besides, don't I have a say in what I want?".

Just before I got his answer, the door opened. I had time to blink before a strong pair of arms wrapped around me and I was picked up. Blake's face hid against my neck and my body instantly relaxed in his arms. To the side, I felt eyes on us. On the doorway, Wes stood, eyes emotionless. Ever so slowly, my hands raised and wrapped around Blake's neck. I rested my head against his shoulder. "Evangeline" Blake growled.

His hands lowered and slid under my shirt. I knew what he wanted. "Blake, stop, I'm not feeling well" I said. His arms tightened around me. "Blake!" I gasped.

"Fucking mine" he growled, lips pressing against my neck.

"Yes, but please let me go" I said.

"Alpha..." someone started to say. Was it Joel? 

His arms tightened around me. "Blake, please! Let me go! Let go!" I begged as I tried to take deep breaths over his shoulder and before I knew it, my vision went blank.
