I'm not one of you

Injury though being friendly

Liam's pov

A beautiful black wolf with greyish-blue eyes stood before me. She was smallish but lean, she'd make a good tracker.

'What the hell? Did she just turn into a wolf?' Peter questioned. My mind was else where though, she had just ripped off a necklace and was now just sitting waging her tail at us. The expression she had on was relaxed, just like one of a dog that was about to be taken on a walk. "Shift back" I commanded her using my alpha tone. She proceeded to stand up, bound over to me and shove me over. Peter shifted to help me, but she just licked my face and rolled all over me, like a labrador would. Then her scent hit me, she smelt delicious. Her scent was of warm honey on a winter's day. She smells so perfect to me. Her scent is amazing, it's as if she were my 'Mate' my wolf finished. Oh no, oh goddess no, not her, please goddess anyone but her.

Suddenly Peter decided that enough was enough, in wolf form he rammed into her side knocking her off me. She hit a tree, the noise of it made me cringe slightly. I could feel a slight pain in my side, as the bond was already there. Her whimpering was soft but still audible, it made me want to punch Peter but I didn't, knowing his mate Ari would stab me with a sliver knife, if I did. 'Save mate, NOW!' my wolf growled out, making sure I listened. "Stop attacking, Peter", I said using my alpha tone. "But Liam I was just-" "Now". He shifted back, pulling on his tracksuit from before. His gaze was anywhere but on me, I would make my pack only look away when I was mad at them, other than that I really didn't care if they looked me in the eye or not. Then a whimper could be heard, it was my poor little mate. She had shifted back when my attention was on Peter, she gripped at her side. Her knees proceeded to tuck up to her bare chest, she started sobbing softly to herself. She looked so helpless. I walked closer to her, crouching down to her. I lifted my hand to wipe away a stray tear that had fallen from her eyes, she gasped at my touch, backing away from me as she did so.

I was in immense pain, worse than when I was shot. 'Mate sent beta to hurt us' my wolf whined quietly. 'He only made his beta Peter, I think stop because he wants us alive for questioning' I responded to her. 'Should have expected it though, the only person who was ever nice to me was Tamara and that was only when I was young' I thought to myself, I was feeling broken so I pulled my knees to my chest. 'Ow' I whimpered to my wolf, my side was on fire and my heart shattered. I should have never agreed to this, I shouldn't have gotten of my bike, I shouldn't of let my wolf take over because now I feel more broken and alone than ever. I heard him walk over to me 'Probably to knock us out and take us for torture' I said to my wolf. Then I felt heat on my face, his hand, wiping away a single tear. That made me gasp, scrambling back a few feet to make a gap, wait I'm naked, dammit I always taught my death would be slightly more respectable than being killed by an alpha, after just having shifted to try protect myself from him and in the nude! I wished I had never shifted. After that long train of taught I realized something my side was now in agony. 'I want mate' my wolf sighed, knowing that she wasn't gonna get want she wanted. He sighed at me before putting one strong hand behind my knees and the other behind my head. I immediately stiffen at the unexpected gentleness. He noticed and started to murmur in my ear, I couldn't focus on what he was murmuring as I was still trying to understand his actions. His last words I caught though "I'm so sorry" and then I was surrounded by darkness again.

"what was that?" Peter hissed at me, holding my poor,defenseless mate in my arms. "What?" I questioned, cocking my eyebrow," You would have done it if it was Ari" I said looking down at the tiny figure in my hands. "She's my mate!.. Oh no, oh goddess no, please don't tell me that this hunter is your mate" he was walking around the area, moving his arms for emphasis. " Just come on, we don't want her waking up to turn full wolf on her again, do we?". "No".
