Rejection & A New Mate

Jack..

Aliyeah*

"Jack..." My heart drops into my stomach. I feel bile at the back of my throat..

"Where. The. Hell. Have. You. Been."Jack slowly paces over to me while looking me up and down.

Goosebumps rise on my skin. He's a disgusting and smells of cigarettes and gin. "I am ver.... very sorry, sir." I bow my head down and feel my eyes start to burn as well. Tears beginning to form at the brims of my eyes. I know damn well what's about to happen. I am going to be punished...

"Sorry...sorry? Hahahaha! You think sorry is going to make your punishment any better?" He grins slyly and I can see him take off his belt.

My body tenses and I debate wether to run or fight. Honestly I know neither option is going to prevent what's to come.

"Take off that stupid hat and sweater!! It's about go damn time you grow up and get rid of that hat. Your parents are dead you belong to me now!! He rips my cap off of my head and throws it down the hall.

"Please!! NO! It's the only think I have left!!" I am screaming at this point not caring about being punished. I need my hat! It's the only thing I care about right now!

I run to retrieve my dads baseball cap when suddenly I am yanked back by my hair. I scream as I feel a good chunk of hair ripped from my scalp. I drop the the ground trying to crawl away. I need my hat....

"You stupid whore! Did I say you could move?! You're going to learn to obey me tonight I promise you that!"

*WACK!!*

*1 hour later*

I lost count of how many times he hit me... my throat is raw and sore from my screams. I'm lying limp on the floor of the living room. Staring at the glass door in front of me. I must've blacked out because I can hear Jacks snores from his room down the hall.

I slowly and quietly lift myself off the floor and against the sofa. Hissing I can feel I have a few broken ribs. It's hurts so much to breathe.I lie there for what feels like ages but I'm sure are only seconds...

I can hear my wolf howling inside of my head. She's weak and needs her mate..

I am so sorry Stella. I don't deserve you as my wolf. I know I need to run away. I am sorry I am such a coward. I promise you we will get out of this okay?

My wolf only stirs and then goes quite. My heart hurts so much.
It hurts for my poor wolf, it hurts for me, for my rejection, and for my new mate, he won't accept me once he find out how ruined I have become..

I need to get out of here.. at least for my wolf. I gather all the strength I have left in me and begin to stand. I search around and by the goddesses miracle. My cap is still in the hall. I limp towards it and grab it holding it against my body with such force.

I quietly go to my room and pack a light backpack up with a few of my essentials and I take a look around. I will not miss this hell hole one bit.

Turning around I head towards the house entrance and reach for the doorknob. I take a shaky breath in trying to be as quiet as I can be so Jack doesn't wake up.

Open. Thank god it isn't locked. Jack must've forgotten to lock the door. I really think the goddesses is on my side right now.

I spoke to soon.

I hear footsteps around the corner of the hall and I hear Jack's door room open. "Where are you little girl?" He's speaking rather calmly but I still hear rage in his voice.

My feet remained glued to my spot at the door entrance. I can't move my body. No. No. NOO! Jack comes around the corner and sees me with my backpack and the door is wide open.

His gaze lands on the door and then back at me. He immediately starts to run towards me.

I instantly react as I see he is running at me and I sprint through the door into the woods in front of the house.

My legs are screaming at me to stop running. My calves feels as if they are going to burst. I feel every part of me burning.

I can't give up!! I am dead if I stop! I am wheezing and my chest is on fire. I can hear Jack still running after me but I hear his steps grown further away.

My body collapses onto the dirt and I struggle to scramble up to my feet and continue running.

I can hear the steps grown louder again and I begin to panic. I feel a burst of adrenaline course through me and I shift into my wolf. I let out the loudest howl I could've possibly mustered up in my condition. As I push myself to keep going.

Suddenly I am tackled to the ground by Jack's wolf and I growl exposing my canines to him. He will not have me without a fight!

He only smirks at me. "I'm going to make sure you never try a stunt like that ever again."

My wolf whimpers and we close our eyes waiting for the pain.

But it doesn't come. I feel his weight lifted from my body and I hear a blood curling scream as someone's body hits the tree infront of me.

I glance over and see the wolf that saved me...it's him...
