The Alpha's Mate

Chapter 3

Damian POV

I can see the wheels turning in her head. Does she really have to think about this ? About being with us ?? I say to my wolf. Elina is just wonderful, she's so easy to talk to... I love her, I love her so much. He says to me. Who's Elina ??! I say to him. Karisma's wolf, duh. He says. Dude, you're so whipped. He growls and says, so are you, and cuts off our mind link.

"Karisma, babe, you have to talk to me." "I don't think I'm good enough for you. I just don't. I'm not... pure." She says anxiously. "What?"

She sniffles and glances at the door. Then she grabs a pillow and hugs it.

"I'm not a virgin." I growl so deep, I can't believe nothing fell. She backs up a little, scared that I would do something to her. I know it's unreasonable for me to be mad, since I'm not exactly the cover child for purity and virginities. But I can't help but be mad and jealous, the alpha blood running through my veins isn't exactly being helpful in this situation

"Damian, let me explain." "Fine."

"When I was 12, I was one of 7 people in my pack that haven't gotten their wolves yet. We were picked on and teased and bullied. Then, the 4 girls of our little group of misfits including me, started getting prettier. We were getting a lot of attention. Like, a lot. Boys would start grabbing our butts, girls would bully us more. And there was this one guy. I had a crush on him for a while, but I never really got the chance to confront him about it since he was in a different pack. And then, one Friday night he asked to take me to a party and I couldn't believe that he wanted me to be his date so of course I said yes. We were dancing and we took a few drinks. One of the ones he gave me tasted weird, but I didn't care, because he had just kissed me. I was 15 at the time. I started feeling hazy and weird, so he took me up to a room. He started kissing me and feeling me up. I was drugged by him, I found that out a few days later. Even though I was weak, I tried to stop him. I wanted to save my innocence for my mate, the one thing I knew I could give to you. But, he stole that from me. And he forced it, and made it so painful that I passed out in the middle of it. I woke up after like an hour later and saw blood all over the bed and he was gone. I-I didn't know what to do after that." She finishes, and tears run down her face. The pain is so evident on her face that anger and sympathy run through so strongly inside of me

"Who is he." I whisper to her. "What?" She says. "WHO IS HE. I'M GOING TO KILL HIM AND RIP HIS THROAT OUT. SO WHO THE FUCK IS HE?" I can't help but scream, feeling so helpless that I wasn't around to save my mate from one of the worst experiences she's had.

Tears run down her face, but my wolf is trying to take over. I can feel my eyes changing color.

"Z-Zack... Z-Z-Zack M-Mariano. Damian, don't. Please don't do anything, I'm over it. At least I'm trying to get over it, but please just let it be. I don't want to see him ever again." She says and hesitantly places her hand on mine. My anger subsides the slightest bit from my mate's touch and I let out a deep breath.

Zack.

Mariano.

Why does that sound so fucking familiar? He must be in our pack. And when I think about it, I know exactly who that fucker is.

And I know what he'll be when I'm done with his pathetic ass.

"I'll try. I'll try not to do anything." I say to her softly.

But I can't keep that promise, because I will do anything to protect her and make her life better. It's my job to do it.
