The Broken Werewolves: The Human Mate (BxB)

Chapter 24 - Marcus Pierce

Chapter 24
Marcus Pierce

Turns out my senses are being blocked. I'm not sure how they are doing that. I think it makes me so stupid. I should have known and prepared myself that this would come – that they would be attacking. And now they are here, ready to kill some innocent people.

Looking behind me, I see my mate's frantic look that just hurts my expression. We are all hearing it: the terrified screams of the students trying to save themselves from these rogue werewolves. The fear is there, too, in my heart. I'm scared that somehow, they could take my mate away from me. That they could kill him right in front of my face. That image inside my head is enough to send a burning stab in my heart. My heart races as I frantically search for anything, or any place, where I can hide my mate safely.

Nigel's hand is gripping mine tight, and I know that I'm doing the same thing. The last thing I want to do is letting go of his hand. My senses are heightened, and I can practically hear the loud and erratic beat of my mate's heart. I wish I could tell him that everything is okay but that would be lying. This is nowhere okay and I doubt that he'd believe me anyway.

"Marcus, what's happening?" my mate asks me as we run through the crowd of students trying to get their way out of this hellhole. "Who are they? We need to find Julia. I know she's in danger, too!"

"I'll look for her and I'll explain later," I only respond. It's evident in his voice that he's just scared as everyone is. I wish he can't see right through me, that I'm scared to lose him. Right now my goal is to put him to safety. But with the things that are going on right now, I need to act fast. I look at my mate and Blaine. I nod at Blaine. "Take him to safety."

Blaine immediately understands and my mate's eyes widen. "What? Hey, why? What are you going to do? Blaine, let me go of me, you fucker. Marcus!" he screams as I let go of his hand.

He tries to grab it one more time, but Blaine practically pushes him backwards. My mate yells at him as he tries to get out of Blaine's grip. I trust Blaine that he would put my mate to safety. Nigel is still shouting as he fights Blaine. Blaine doesn't care though. He has that determined expression on his face, but also a sad one. He must know the feeling of separation between mates yet he manages to keep his calm cool, and I wish I could do the same thing.

I love you, I mouth as they turn left along with the other students.

I remember when I told my friends about him, that I found my mate and they were so happy to know that. I was so happy, so happy that it felt like I was the luckiest man ever. I had a plan. Get to know him, get close with him, befriend him, and make him fall in love with me. I knew that the pull would help me, and I also knew this would not be easy and I was right. But I succeeded. The pull helped me achieve it. Nigel felt that we had a strong connection. He might not say it, but I knew he was feeling it. I wouldn't be seeing the action he just pulled in front of me as he fought with Blaine to free him out of his strong grip if he hasn't had a strong feeling for me, would I?

Someone knocks on me and we both fall on the ground. I groan when my back hits the solid ground and my wolf instinct tells me to kick the fuck out of that guy who just bumped me. When I look, the guy is getting on his feet as fast as possible and there's a look of fear plastered on his face. I feel bad suddenly for him. There's a loud growl just a few meters away from me and the guy screams. A rogue werewolf lunges himself towards us and I ready for my stance. The guy raises his arms in front of his face as if that would save him, but I will. As soon as the rogue werewolf is within arm reach, I fist my hand and punch him on the side. The rogue whimpers as he hits the dusty ground and I turn to the guy beside me and tell him to fucking run. The guy nods, turns on his heels, and runs as fast as possible as he can manage. I decide that it's time to call my friends. I still have to find Julia as I promised to my mate. She's probably still in that school building. But I know her mate will come to save her, though.
