You Marked Me, Then Rejected Me

Chapter 3: Second Chance

Edited...

*****************

The tears and sobs come to an end. We get back on the road to head to Luke's house, the pack house. I pull up to the house and look at it with a smile. Some of my good memories are from here. This was a second home for me.

I park the car in front to see a few other cars. We get out of the car and walk up to the door. Luke entering the door first to release familiar scents. First step inside, I'm pulled into a tight hug. A smile appears on my lips when my eyes meet with Luke's father's brown eyes. He chuckles as he tightens his arms around me.

When I was younger this hug would almost kill me. He is the father I never had when I was little. I laugh a bit as I wiggle in his strong hold. "Are you trying to squeeze me to death?"

The corners of his lips turn up into a smile. My laugh must have made him loosen his grip. "Your stronger then you used to be."

I slide my arms around his waist and give a tighter squeeze then he was squeezing me. Air escapes his lips before his laugh. I let go of him joining in with his laughing. Arms wraps around my waist from behind. I glance behind me to find Luke.

A smirk appears on his dad's lips, I want to smack it off his face. Lips lightly graze Von's mark as something passes through me making me shake in a bad way. What did I just feel? Luke lets go of my waist then grabs my hand gently. He leads me into the next room, the living room.

We come to one of the couches but when Luke sits down trying to drag me down with him, I hold my ground. He looks at me with a raised eye brow. "What's wrong?"

I glare at him a bit. "Why did you do that in front of your dad?"

He laughs a bit as we sit on the couch. "Let's just say I've always felt a connection to you. I wanted to see how connected you two were with just the mark."

I look at him stunned, then laugh coldly. "Want to know something I learned while gone? I don't have a true mate. Unless they're another alpha."

His eyes glow as he smiles. He leans close to me. "Why not be my mate then?"

I stare into his eyes as most of my emotions die. "Let's see if you can make my wolf howl."

How detached I said it, I thought he would move away, but no. He didn't hear the emotionless words as he leans in and kissed me. A shock went through me, which he must have felt as he pulls away fast and stared at me in shock. I turn away from him. Shit, I should of saw this coming.

Didn't think he would kisses me with my cold words. Most males backed away from my words. "What the fuck was that?"

He wipes his mouth as I laugh coldly. "Didn't expect you to actually kiss me with my cold words. Others back a way."

I move away from him and turn a way. He grabs one of my hands tightly. "I told you, I have feelings for you so I ignored the cold words."

Something made my wolf howl in my ears. Not good. I stand pulling my hand away from his. "We better go outside.... now."

I run out the front door before Luke gets up. On the porch, I come face to face with a furious Von. He grabs me by the collar of my shirt and growls in my face. "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!"

Grabbing his hand tightly as I growl back. "Why do you care? I can do whatever I want."

He pushes me up against Luke's house as Luke comes out the door. "Von let her go. Haven't you hurt her enough with marking her?"

Von turns his gaze to Luke with a nasty glare. "This doesn't concern you or anyone else. This is between her and me. So, butt out."

I watch Luke get angry, but he doesn't utter a word. Von turns his attention back to me, his anger flows into me fueling my own anger. A growl leaves my lips making Von tighten his grip. "You do not own me even with your mark on me! I will never become yours!"
