Fated to love you 135: A night out
The next morning I woke up feeling a lot better and more refreshed. Lucas and I trained nonstop, and I got more and more acquainted with my mate, but sadly the next day, we had to leave.I had missed too much schoolwork, and Lucas had an empire to run. Even though I was unsure whether or not I was ready to face the outside world and all that it brought along, Lucas assured me that Charles would not be far from me and he would protect me this time, and I trusted him. But it didn't make things any easier. I had been traumatized, and I couldn't help the knowledge that one of the first things he would do as soon as he got home was to make the people responsible for my pain pay dearly for it. It pleased me more than I was willing to admit. The end of our stay was gradually approaching, and finally, the day was here when Lucas was convinced that I was completely ready. "Are you sure you're okay?" Lucas asked for the fifth time that hour, One arm was holding onto the steering wheel, and th
Fated to love you 136: Big bad wolves
I didn't know what Lucas told Charles, or what his specific orders were but since I came back he has been following me around like a fly. Also Lola has been making sure we spend as much time as possible, it was as though the duo had some secret agreement to never let me out of their sight and to be fair I couldn't complain. I waited for weeks, checking if they would go back to their routine and spend time without me but it rarely ever happened and it was becoming a drag quite frankly. The fact that the sexual tension they felt for each other still hung in the air while the three of us spent time together made me feel like I was intruding something ..... intimate. What was worse was that it even extended over night sometimes, Charles would spend the night in our room and I would force myself to not think about all the things they were doing on that bed, all the things I wanted to do with someone. I knew for a certain that Charles had figured out that I caught him yet we never spoke
Fated to love you 137: How did he know?
As quickly as the crowd gathered, they soon dispersed. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Mac's men infiltrate the place, searching for what I imagined was the guy, and turning things back to normalcy, I glanced at the person still standing in front of me. His eyes were on me, and he looked angry, but when has he not been angry? This was the first time in months we were coming in contact, and It didn't hurt that much until I thought about it right now. He was supposed to be my mate, but what was he really? Did he even know that I was kidnapped? Did he notice my absence? Would anyone have come to save me if Lucas had not come? I shook my head; that was a hole I didn't want to sink into, not tonight anyway. we could pretend we were strangers just like we famously did all the while. I stepped aside to walk past him, and then I felt his stiff hands grip my arm. Electricity shock raged through my entire arm, lighting up in small sparkles that left tinges all the way down my body. I
Fated to love you 138: Two days.
Maybe someone had told him, or he heard it somehow, I mean it wouldn't be surprising to me. He was an Alpha all. I wanted to make excuses for him. I so badly wanted him to take back those words and not utter them again until I told him, then maybe feign ignorance, but it was too late for that now; he had said it, and all that could happen was for him to convince me that he knew this some other way. "How did you know?" My voice quivered. A wave of Shock came over his numb features quickly for a second, and then it was gone. "I heard my men whispering something about it a few days ago. I thought it was merely a joke. I didn't believe it because it was bullshit. Who would dare to lay hands on something that belonged to me? Not anyone who wants to live for sure." He brought his eyes up to meet mine, I searched them hastily looking for some atom of truth in his words, something to hold on to but I found nothing I was searching for. " But tonight, sensing your bruises and seeing how f
Fated to love you 139: Ready to follow.
The thing about being in the middle of two powerful people is that you always have to choose one, and your choice most times determines the course of your life forever. After watching Mac's frightening display, it seemed my thoughts for him began to soften at the prospect that he cared for me. But he had been so violent, completely blanked out for a second, but could I judge him for that? The love of his life was kidnapped. Or at least his mate was, so he was bound to blackout, right? And just because I didn't see Lucas with bloody and bruised fingers batter his men and snap their necks didn't necessarily mean he was the lesser evil, right? I sighed as I climbed the stairs up to my dorm. I was still shaken from the things I had witnessed and knew I had to filter certain parts of the story because I didn't want to scare my only friend and roommate; Lola made things seem even more miserable. "Oh my goodness, I was so worried!" Lola rushed over to me at once the moment I stepped into
Fated to love you 140: It's lovely to see you again.
The ride was silent, smooth, and short. Everything I needed it to be, and by the time we pulled into the Ashen's Mansion, I was fairly ready for whatever I was going to meet. "Did you catch them? The people who kidnapped me?" I asked. Ever brooding, Mac nodded and led the way through the grand entrance. We followed a descending staircase which I had never seen despite my penchant for exploring the house and the numerous times I had done so and I made a mental image in my head of everywhere we got. When we got down, he led the way to the basement. It was dark, silent, and dusty, like no one had been down here in a while, and the thought gave me shivers because I was here with Mac, of all people. "In here." He motioned to a door that creaked open as he kicked it, and immediately, the metallic smell of blood filled my nostrils. I felt dizzy for a second, staring into the dark and wondering if I was supposed to be seeing anything other than pitch black. The switch on the wall was

The moment I sat beside her, she took my palms in her smooth ones and closed her eyes. "You have your mother's aura, you know, so comforting and soothing. Typical Samantha" I smiled. "Are you okay? Why do you stay here all day, and why is no one really aware of your presence?" I shook my head, trying to come to terms with this. "It's like no one even knows you're alive. No one acknowledges it, not even your husband or your son" I finally asked the questions that were bugging in my mind. She sighed wistfully, her eyelids opening to reveal teary emerald beads. "Oh dear, sometimes I too wonder if I am alive, It is a mystery isn't it? I fit more as a painting than anything else, and I am content with that" I shook my head again, this time ready to protest. How could anyone be content with being a static, unfeeling thing? But she was faster; closing her other hand on my palm, she smiled. "Let's leave that aside, dear. I have just a few minutes of lucidity. Tell me, what brings you
Fated to love you 142: Revenge Hungry.
I never understood grief because I lost my mom before my head could fathom it. Before, my heart knew that kind of sorrow existed, but often, as a curious little girl, I would sneak out in the middle of the night and find my father hunched over in the living room, staring at a picture of my mother with tears streaming down his eyes. I was never brave enough to approach him; rather, I stared from afar, wondering why my heart suddenly felt so heavy and why he kept panting like he couldn't breathe because his whole world was tumbling apart. And I have never understood my father so much than now, as I stood listening to my fated mate speak of me like garbage, hearing the atrocities he had caused and the harm he brought my way, knowing all along that I dined with the devil with a smile on my face. It was another kind of pain, an indescribable, terribly heart-wrenching kind of pain. I didn't know how to breathe, and neither did I know how my legs carried me from the front of the door soun
