Too Good For You

CHAPTER THREE

-

"Mate."

-

My legs grew weak due to his voice. My wolfs is jumping in so much joy. I can feel my eyes get watery due to tears. I fell to my knees, I can't hold myself up any longer. I was so happy to have finally found my mate.

"My savior." I told Jade. "Our savior." She told me.

"What?" Anton broke the silence that occurred. "Mate? So Alpha Stone is your mate?" Theodore piped in. Alpha Stone averted his gaze from me to Anton then to Theodore, but harder. They both stiffened.

Alpha Stone then averted his gaze back to me with a sigh. He smiled faintly and headed for my direction. Everyone between us moved aside to make way for him. I was still on the floor kneeling down. He stopped in front of me. He held his hand out, looking at me as a way of saying I should accept it.

I gladly do. He helps me stand up, and he places his hands around my waist. "What's your name, sweetie?" He asked me, I could feel his hot breath on my face. "Emily. Emily Mondragon." Chloe answered for me. Alpha Stone only turned to her with a growl. Causing Chloe to bow her head and mutter an apology.

"I asked my mate. Not you." He breathed heavily, I could feel his muscles tense. Hi eyes turning from chocolate brown, to icy blue. He was fighting his wolf not to shift. "What a lovely name." He whispered to me. I felt heat rise up to my cheeks. "Th-thank you, A-Alpha Stone." I answered him. He looked hurt. "Please, just call me Gabrielle." I nodded not trusting my voice. He smiled at me, so I returned the gesture.

"I would like to bring my mate home with me. If that is alright with you Theodore." He said aloud. His chin up as he stood straighter. He moved me to his side, his arm still around my waist. "But she's our sla-" Theodore stopped himself, earning a low growl from my mate. "I mean, that can be arranged Alpha Stone." Theodore glared at me. As if to say that he strongly disagrees with idea of me leaving.

"I'm so happy for you Emily, dear." Luna Mela spoke up, stepping forward with her arms out for an embrace. I look at Gabrielle, asking for his permission so to let me go. Shortly, his iron grip on my waist loosened, enough for me to move to where Luna Mela was. "Thank you Luna." I hugged her back. After breaking free from the embrace, I walked back to where Gabrielle stood.

"As much as I'd like to celebrate and congratulate you, Emily. I believe that we have more important business to talk about, Alpha Stone." Anton interjected. "Although finding my mate is frankly more important. I do agree that we have some business to attend and discuss about." Gabrielle agreed.

-

- inside Alpha Theodore's office -

"So when did the first intrusion occur if I may ask?" Theodore asked whilst sitting down on his chair behind his desk. "The first intrusion occurred on the Tuesday of last week. The second and last occurred a few hours after we caught the first intruder, on the same day." My mate explained, tightening his grip on my waist securely.

We were sat on the only love seat in Theodore's office. I zoned out about what they were talking about. For my mind was in deep thought about what would now happen. I have found my mate. Jade and I can be free from the Red Eclipse Pack. We can no longer be slaves.

"We can be free from Anton." Jade told me, in a hopeful and joyous voice. "I know. And I can't believe, that in all of the werewolves around the world. Our mate is one of the strongest alphas." I was so happy to have found my mate. "I can't wait to leave this territory, and finally be with someone I actually want to be with." She was jumping with such joy.

-

"Again, We are sorry for our lack of security. We will make sure to take care of the situation right away. We will also be the ones to pick up the escapees, and bring them back here." Theodore stands and tells Gabrielle. "So that is all about the pack business. Now, I would like to formally arrange, and to ask formally, to have Emily to come home with me." My mate stands up as well, causing me to stand too.

Theodore sighs, defeat obvious in his eyes. "She was my greatest trophy after conquering a pack. But I gue--" Theodore was cut off by Gabrielle who was now on top of him, strangling him. "Do not ever call my mate, yours. She is someone. Not a trophy. Don't piss me off, or your daughter will be the trophy." I rush next to my mate, not exactly knowing how to calm him down. So I reluctantly came closer and held his shoulders. "A-alpha Stone, please." And sure enough, he stood up, " I was asking nicely, Theodore, you should think twice before dropping such words." He held me by my waist and headed out Theodore's office.

-

"Come on Emily. We'll go home. To my, no, to our territory." Gabrielle told me, starting to walk towards where the exit of the pack house. "But, I s-still have to get my belongings." I shyly told him. "It's fine. I can get you new ones." He smiled. But I cowered further into my self. Lowered my head even more, and said, "B-but, a few of my belongings dearly mean something to m-me." He sighs, and I cower more, if that is still possible.

"Okay. I will come with you," He agrees. I was surprised to what he had said. "You don't have to. I c-can manage on m-my own." I shyly protest. I see his boot-clad feet face my direction, "It wasn't a question honey, it was a statement." He grabs my chin and make me look at him.

"I-its fine. Really, I c-can--" He cuts me off. "Please? Emily?" His eyes soften, so all I do is nod my head. He lets go of my chin, and hold my hand. I felt sparks when his skin touched mine. We head to where the quarters are, hand in hand.

-

I was about to enter the abandoned prison looking quarters for us slaves, when I felt Gabrielle stop walking. "Emily?" He growled lowly. I stop and turn to look at him behind me. His eyes were turning icy blue. Yo be honest, he was scaring me. I just nod. "...This? ...This is where you stay?" He asked me, his eyes met mine from looking at the building in front of us.

Once again, I just nod. Suddenly, he pulled me into his arms. He hugs me tight, and after a few seconds, I reluctantly hug him back. "I'm sorry for not finding you sooner." He kissed the top of my head and let me go. I smile at him, and he returned the gesture.

I asked him to stay outside the building, for I was ashamed of what of my belongings he might see. I don't enter the room right away, because i might be met by my room mates. The room I was staying in was the last room on the right. So it was quite the walk. And when I arrive to where my room was, I hesitantly knocked and went inside.

"Well look who's here." The long blonde haired one said. I shrugged her off and proceeded to bring out a black backpack from underneath all my clothing. "Going somewhere?" The other asked. And again, I just didn't acknowledge them.

"Hello? We're talking to you, dumbass incase you didn't understand." The first one sassed. I proceed on packing my very few belongings, not forgetting the only photo left of my family that was in my wallet. Why do I have a wallet? Well it was the only thing I had when they took us to this territory, they thought it was useless so they let me keep it.

"Oh my god, are you seriously ignoring us?" Long blonde haired one stood up and started heading my direction. I put on the backpack and before I can even process what was to happen next, I was on the ground. Both of them were on each side of me. The other proceeded on straddling and strangling me, the other has her hand over my mouth.

I tried fighting and screaming, but being I was already weak to begin with, it wasn't really much of a use. Slowly, my vision became blurry, I can faintly hear Jade trying to keep me awake. But I can't fight it, and I was out cold.
