He picked me up in his strong arms and carried me to the room I occupied before, by the time we entered the room the pain has subsided and my strength was returning, making me sigh in relief. "Put me down" I said through gritted teeth when it seemed he was going to stand with me in his arms the whole night, this was all to surreal, my emotions was all over the place. One side of me was telling me this was completely wrong and the other side said it was perfectly right. The anger inside me was in a war with my libido side and it was messing with my head completely. He put me down carefully on the sofa in front of the fire, and then he turned around to dismiss the servants who were waiting for us to give them something to do. They scurried out of the room in haste, closing the door with a soft click, it looked like the devil himself was chasing them, making me chuckle on the inside at their behaviour. I watched him walk over to the liquor cabinet with a frown on my face and he poured two glasses of whiskey for us, at this point I felt like I could drink a whole dam bottle by myself, not forgetting how I landed myself into this situation in the first place. I didn't take my eyes of him keeping a keen eye on every move he made, he moved with a grace I haven't seen from the guys back home, this man sure was something else. His muscles flexed under his shirt while working in front of the cabinet. He turned around and walked back over to me then gave me, my glass standing in front of me, "Drink, it will help take away the after effects of the ceremony" he said standing before me with his husky manly voice. Taking the glass from him with shaking hands, cursing myself for showing any sort of weakness before him, could this night piss me off even more. "Thank you, but what happened to us just now?"

I asked him when he sat down on one of the single couches, making sure to not sit too close to me, which made me frown even more, I couldn't believe how my body was betraying me, or why I had this reaction to him, don't get me wrong he was a gorgeous guy but fuck I have never been one to go for looks. He looked at the fire for a while seeming to be contemplating how to tell me, him taking so long to answer me was making me even more nervous. "We were bonded for eternity by blood, from here on out you belong to me and I belong to you", choking on my drink, having a coughing fit, he said it like it was the most normal thing in the world to happen and I cleared my throat, trying to get rid of the burning feeling in my throat. "WHAT?" I almost screamed at him with a mixture of shock and disbelieve on my face, my mouth was hanging open and my eyes felt like they were going to buck out of my head. Getting myself and my emotions under control I got up and started pacing around the room to get rid of these feelings. I came back to the couch and sat down again, albeit a little more forceful than before, the confusion of all of this was making my head spin. "So what? Like being married or something?" I looked at him clenching my jaw tight ; this guy was seriously hot and was making me feel things I never thought I'd feel, but there was no fucking way I was going to be stuck here or with him when I didn't consent to any of this, that was just ludicrous to expect.

 He smiled at me then and it made me feel warm inside, seriously what the fuck was happening to me "or something" he said with a smirk on his lips. "All will be revealed in time I promise,.. Um and your name is?" He asked me and kept looking at me with amusement in his dark brown eyes. Well, fuck, they bonded us together and he didn't even know my name, if that isn't completely out of whack then I don't know. He could see that I was struggling with myself in whether to tell him or not, but then again what would it matter if he knew, seeing as they apparently "bonded" us together, "Its Mat, my name is Mat and yours?" I answered him looking at the fire and not at him, avoiding his eyes for they were creating havoc with my senses, I couldn't give into these feelings. "Well Mat I am Jake, a pleasure to meet you" and he held out his hand to me, seriously dude? I wanted to sass him. Choosing not to take it I got up and went to look out the window, hearing a growl come from behind me, it was pitch black outside, this was truly getting weirder by the minute, like who the fuck growls like an animal? 

One couldn't make out anything except the moon that was high and full, and some creepy shadows that moved around in the dark. Did this place not have any street lights or outside lights, I mean come on we are in the modern era not the fucking stone ages. Sounds of howling wolf's came from all over the island, it made me shiver and move away from the window. When I turned back to Jake, he was holding his hands to his head and could barely keep standing, it looked like he was having a migraine attack or something was seriously wrong with him, I could feel worry for him creep up on me, but tried really hard to ignore it. Maybe them bonding us together was having a negative effect on him, well shit that wouldn't surprise me at all with the luck I have had in my life, my blood poisoning him would definitely not be a huge surprise for me, that almost made me laugh out loud, but luckily I stopped myself in time, this wasn't a laughing matter. I tried to move to him but my head started to swim with dizziness and whatever was affecting him was now affecting me as well and being unconscious in a room with a man I knew nothing about isn't sitting well with me at all but before I knew what was going on or was able to do anything about it the blackness came and I fell to the ground with a oomph leaving my lips as I face planted the floor and became oblivious to anything else that happened, the dark felt peaceful and serene, but it felt like something was in there with me. Screaming something over and over at me, but for the life of me I couldn't make out what it was screaming,  it was like there was this thick wall between me and it. Making it difficult for me to hear anything......
