5. You're already wet!

Ruby.

'Hey beautiful.' I am woken up by the most amazing female voice. That's not Zama, I open my eyes, slowly, adjusting to the sudden light that's almost blinding me. My eyes hurt and so is my body. I finally manage to open my eyes, but I can't see the person speaking. Am I going nuts? And I have clothes on, I am in an oversized t-shirt. It's definitely his, it has his scent all over it. How come though? I am definitely not home by the looks of it.

'Hey.' The voice says again, making me flinch. I think I am going mad.

'Of course not.' I hear the same voice again.

“Where are you? Are you a ghost?” Omg I'm hearing ghost voices. I shoot up from the bed, knocking the sheets over and standing upright in a jiffy.

'Don't be silly, Ruby.' Wait a minute, is the voice in my head? 'Of course silly, it's me your wolf Roxane.' My wolf?

“Omg I have a wolf.” I say out loud.

'Of course, duh! It's not a miracle, you are a wolf, aren't you?'

“You have an attitude.” I say.

“You don't have to speak loudly, you know, I can hear your thoughts pretty well.” She says.

“Well I am so happy that you are here.” I say loud again, happiness overwhelming me.

'Wait a minute, where are we?' I ask Roxane.

'How will I know, I was asleep just as you were, though I woke up first.'? She brags.

'Okay, now can we figure out where we are? Because this isn't my room.' That's when my memories of collapsing into Owen's arms comes rushing back to me. Just thinking about him makes me blush, I feel my cheeks becoming red.

'Girl, you're already wet.' Roxs says, chuckling. 'And don't you dare call me Roxs, my name is Roxane.' She adds.

'I will call you whatever I want because you are my wolf.'

'Fair, but I will get you, don't worry Ruby.' She says, going off.

I scan the room I am in, it doesn't look familiar in any single way. As I am about to head for the door, I see the knob turning. Someone is clearly coming in, I run back to bed and pretend to still be asleep.

I hear footsteps coming towards me and stop the moment they are beside the bed. I feel a kiss on my forehead, that sends sparks all over my body. My body reacts to Owen differently, for sure. He lingers there for a while, I can't stop myself from opening my eyes. My whole body longs for him.

I am met by his enchanting eyes the moment I open my eyes.

“Owen.” I say.

“You are awake, how are you feeling now, baby.” He asks, squeezing himself beside me on bed and circling his hand around my body from underneath me, pulling me closer to his chest.

“My body is in pain. Where am I please.” I ask politely.

“You are in my room.” He says, his eyes not leaving mine.

“Wait, your room? In the underworld?” I ask, my heart starting to beat so fast.

“Yes you are in the underworld Ruby. I brought you back with me because you are my mate and I can't share you with the two morons.” He says firmly.

“You are kidding, right.” I ask, freeing myself from his embrace.

“No I am not, when you collapsed, I took the liberty to bring you with me.” He explains. This is the reason why I didn't want a mate, how dare he.

“So you kidnapped me?” I ask in a low tone, I don't want to erupt. I try as hard as I can to play cool.

“What? No Ruby, you are mine, so there is no way I kidnapped you.” He says, his ruby eyes scanning me. He seemed surprised at my outburst.

“Take me back home now Owen, please.” I say looking at him.

“You want to go back to your morons, huh?" He raises his voice, getting up from the bed.

“Don't you dare speak to me that way Owen. The fact that I am your mate, doesn't mean you own me.” My anger gets the best of me. “As a matter of fact, I am going to reject all of you, I don't want a mate. I don't want my life to be tied down to a man, powerful or not, I don't care.” I utter getting out of bed and scanning around for my shoes.

“No, please don't say that Ruby.” He rushes to my side and takes my hand in his. The moment our skin meets, my anger fades away. I see how devastated he looks, his Ruby eyes have a hint of tears in them. My heart tightens as I see him this way. “Don't reject me, please.” He begs.

“I just can't…" I try to say something, but it seems like my mind goes blank.

“I am sorry but please don't utter those hurtful words to me, they will completely shutter me, Ruby .” He pleads as a tear escapes his eyes. He makes me so confused, I feel so bad for saying the words in the first place.

“I want to go home.” I say, not having another word to say to him.

“Well, Ruby you can't.” He says, his face seems apologetic.

“Why Owen, I need to go. My mum must be worried sick about me.”

“It's impossible for now Ruby, I am sorry. The portal only opens once in a month for another Supernatural to pass through.”

“You are joking, right?” My eyes widen at the realization that I might spend a really long time here with him.

“No Ruby, I can move in and out, but you can't, you have to wait for the portal to open first.”

“And you knew all about this before you brought me here unwillingly.” I ask, fighting the tears that are threatening to come out.

“Yes Ruby but…"

“Don't you dare utter another word. Just get out.” I say calmly. “Leave me alone, get out of here.” I add.

“I am sorry Ruby, please…"

“Get out!!!!!!.” I scream, yanking a bedside lamp at him. He dodges it, it crashes on the wall, causing it to break.

“Out." I scream again, throwing a pillow at him. He stays there for a long while before exiting the room.

I throw myself on bed and cry my heart out, how could he do this to me?
