Chained Hearts

Crippled

" Alexander is totally going to notice that." Raven says as she gently applies the beyond freezing ice pack to my swollen ankle. Mason had to carry me inside since I can not even stand up without falling and now I am seated on my bed trying to find ways to cover my injury and possibly broken ankle.

" He is already going to shake the whole damn house when he finds out about the situation in general be if he finds out Gordon broke my ankle than hell will be on Earth." I exclaim and cover my face with a pillow in frustration. I am now laying on my bed in my red lace push up bra that is covered with a white tank and I have my black boy short underwear on. It is not like I am gonna leave my room anyways.

It is about 11 at night and Alex spent the whole day seeing what pack or family the boy belonged to and who could have possibly done this.

I sigh and look back at my ankle that you would have expected to have started to heal or at least swell down considering the injury was hours ago.

" Ava there isn't even a point in hiding it from him, Alex will already fucking kill him just knowing about the damn attack. Saving this much of information from him won't really make a difference." She explains and I realize it's true. At the end of the day the king will be heartless to those who have hurt him or his loved ones. I still need to figure out what the hell happened with Gordon and if he had anything to do with the boy's dead body in the woods.

Someone or something is controlling Gordon's mind and who knows who else. Why am I the target or even Alexander? Of course Alexander has enemies but no one dare try to take the throne.

The bed beneath me starts to vibrate and soon the whole house shakes from under and I hear a shout that only the most powerful creature can make. The anger and frustration behind the voice let's me know how upset my mate is. I hope that he at least tries to figure out the reason behind all the attacks instead of killing him. As much as I unfortunately like him, he still needs to control his anger and his ruthless side.

" Helloo, Earth to crippled Ava" Raven exclaims as she waves her hand in front of my face. By now the house is still and silent. You can hear a pin drop.

" Have fun dealing with that monster of a mate" My annoying sister says with a look of sorry and I know she wishes me luck. At this point I just need to get the fact that the boy he already dislikes nearly broke or fucking has already broken my ankle. I quickly hide my legs under the fluffy white comforter.

The weird part is my body heals really fast but something is seriously wrong. As the door slams shut behind Raven I glance at my ankle and see a red, swollen foot.

' thump' I hear in a pattern and my heart drops to my big toe. Here we go. I make sure my whole body is covered under the white comforter and grab my phone to make it seem like I am relaxed and unaffected by the attack placed earlier this fall day.

The door to my room slams open. We haven't really had our own room. I wanted my own room because even if I do like him, I need my space and time to know him more. We have taken a few naps and had a few make out sessions but nothing beyond.

My dark red silk sheets look very interesting right now as I avoid the gaze of a brooding but dangerously silent king.

I'm mad at Gordon too and so confused as of why and what happened to him but I won't go as far as tearing the kid apart as Alexander would.

" What the hell happened?" His deep yet dangerously calm voice questions me as my gray eyes are being stared at by his intense smoky green ones.

" Gordon attacked me but I am fine, something was like possessing him and nothing is adding up as to of why he attacked me." I explain as casually as possible and as soon as I finish talking I break eye contact and look back down at my sheets and play with the edge of the comforter.

I think I can pull of hiding my given injury.

" Stand up" he commands and my eyes widen and immediately shoot to his.

" No, I am comfortable and warm. It is getting cold tonight Alexander so sue me if I want to be warm." I say and laugh a little as inside I am nervous as hell.

" Ava either you stand up and let me see any injury you must have gotten or I will come over there and take you right on this bed." I look right into his dark green eyes full of rage and lust at the same time.

As soon as I heard that I knew I only had one option because I knew he was not kidding about taking me on the bed. I wanted him too deep down inside but I was not ready yet. I want our first time to be when I can fully trust him and love him.

The king is not that bad but I really want to make sure he is changed his ways and more merciful.

I slowly sit up and remove the comforter to stand up. Once I stand tall or well as tall as possible without putting pressure on my ankle I look back up into his eyes and see lust as he takes in my body from head to toe. I forgot I was wearing revealing and semi sexy clothing but as soon as his gaze hits my ankle it turns to complete rage.

Oh shit.

Before I even know the room is literally buzzing as Alexander punches the wall leaving a huge dent and my light flickers.

I have to get him to calm down. I call out his name but he does not pay attention. His rage is too much and I swear my the decorations on the walls are about to come off because he punched the wall so hard and as I notice that he does it again leaving another dent.

Now I really need to do something.

I limp over to where he is standing as he is shaking in anger with him arms braced on the wall and low growls coming from him now.

My hand touches his back and he freezes. Slowly he turns around I take a deep breath as I catch sight of his green eyes that are so dark they seem black and his face having a splash of red as the vein in his forehead pops out.

I cup his face between my hands and look into his rage full eyes.

" I am okay. It is a stupid sprained ankle." I gently whisper to him.

" It is not sprained Ava, it is fucking broken and now I am about to break him." He growls out and I feel him slowly about to pull back to leave and I panic.

Without hesitation I lean forward and slam my lips onto his. Without even a second going by he responds back and starts exploring my mouth.

His hot and big hands descend down to my ass to lift me up and my legs immediately wrap around his waist as ...
