The Weretiger's Curse

Chapter four

Alec

I was sitting behind my desk waiting for Fray to bring Tracy to my office. I played with her name in my head, her name sounded like a piece of heaven for my ears. When she was talking to Quinn at the hospital, I could see she was running from something or someone, the fear in her eyes when she thought we weren't looking at her, the way she wanted to disappear again.... It made me furious.

I needed to know how she got here and why she was runnig through my woods but most importantly I wanted to know what bastard had beat her so badly. I was going to kill him.

"What do you think happened to her?" Quinn asked, pulling me away from my thoughts.

"There is no doubt about it that she was abused, but by who is the big question and who she's running from."

I smelled her before she entered the building, Quinn took a stack of paper work from my desk and walked towards the door.

"I will just be doing these in my office" he said as he lifted the stack of papers. I could feel Tracy's nervousness, she needed to get in this office before she thinks of running, my tiger is already on edge, her running will not end well.

I stood up and Quinn opened the door, Tracy was standing there looking like a frightened mouse, as Quinn left I took her hand and led her into my office and closed the door. She looked breathtaking in those black jeans and white t-shirt, I walked to my desk and took a seat, after we sat down I couldn't help but stare at her.

She was beyond beautiful, curved in all the right places. Her hair was up in a high ponytail that exposed her perfectly, beautiful plump lips, big blue eyes and high cheeckbones. She was so perfect I almost looked passed the ugly purple bruise that was now starting to turn a yellowish colour.

"Tracy, how did you end up in my town" I studied her face as I asked the question, fear, sadness and so much emotion could be seen in her eyes as she was trying to answer my questions.

"Uh....I was lost in the woods and was running, I thought I would never find civilization again and then I saw lights through the trees, I made my way to the lights and thats how I found the town." I could see she was choosing her words careful, too carefully.

"Could I please have my phone now? I really need to call my friend" she asked, almost pleaded. I opened one of my drawers and took out her phone but I didn't give it to her, I placed it on the desk under my palm.

"I will give you your phone but I need you to answer a few questions first" she stared at her phone and then looked at me, nodding her head.

"Why were you lost in the woods?" I studied her face again, this time it seemed that my question lit a tiny spark in her, I could see anger in her eyes.

"I do not know you at all, don't you think it's kinda rude to ask me a question that's personal to me?" I liked that little spark, it showed me that she's no walk over so I decided to test her patience a little.

"No, I do not think so, not when a beautiful young woman ends up in my town, falling through my pub's door all beaten up and shit. So answer my question and you can get your phone." That tiny little spark behind her eyes grew into a fire as she stood up and leaned over, placing her hands firm on the desk.

"You are a bully, you are no better than any other man out there but since you demand an answer, I was running away from someone. That's all I am willing to say so please give me my phone" the way she said I was a bully pissed me off big time but I guess I was just that right now.

My tiger was fuming in my head, he didn't like that our mate was thinking bad about us. I gave her the phone and immediately she took it and starter typing in a number and putting the phone to her ear, fear was all written on her face again.

What ever happened must have been something serious, I stopped thinking when I heard the voice on the other end of the phone.

Fuck!
