Her Redemption, His Weakness Chapter 8
Eight-year-old Zira-Lighting lit up the sky and howling thunder drowned out my screams. I was terrified and alone. Well, not entirely alone, as bloodied corpses were scattered all around me.I knew I was supposed to stay in the house with the doors and windows locked, but my twelve-year-old brother, Aiden, snuck out. He was supposed to stay in the house with me, but he was worried our parents were in trouble. I tried reminding him he was only twelve, but he was convinced that with our father not home, he was the man of the house.When he left, I debated for far too long if I should follow. Even if I was only eight, I was extremely smart and more mature than most kids my age. I was also obedient to my parents, and they made it perfectly clear I was not to leave the house or let anyone in except for them. However, I now wish I had followed my brother.If I had, I wouldn’t be alone, and I would feel safer as I stepped over the bodies of my pack members and other people I didn't know. I

Zira-The memory of my past disappeared from my mind, and I was back in the present day. Focusing on Axton, I looked into the familiar eyes of the wolf I had seen when I was eight. Although Axton wasn’t a wolf, his eyes were unmistakably similar.The memory of that night I lost my family has been hidden in the deepest part of my mind. There were many things I hadn’t remembered, but now I can remember everything. Mostly, I could remember the pain I felt when I watched the life slip from my mother’s eyes.I tried to push down the pain of losing my family, reminding myself it had been ten years, and I couldn’t continue dwelling on it. When the loss of my parents no longer affected me, something else occurred to me. What if Aiden was still alive?I never truly confirmed he was dead. The dead boy in my memory could have been Aiden, but I no longer knew for sure. The scent I caught of Aiden’s had been strong, but not as strong as it should have, with how much the boy had been bleeding. Plus

Zira-“There is nothing wrong with it.” Axton shrugged nonchalantly. “Unless you have a problem with my age?” Axton’s eyebrows quirked momentarily before he quickly dropped every emotion from his face and now appeared to be bored with the conversation. “I might be an issue if I mention it now, but I don’t plan to mention it until you turn eighteen.”“I don’t care about your age, but I still don’t think we should become mates. I am not ready and I won’t be even when I turn eighteen. You can’t just throw that at me and expect me to accept it.” My eyes fell to my hands, which still had his hand resting on one of them.Pulling my hands away from him, I tucked them between my stomach and thighs, while pulling my heels closer to my butt. Lifting my eyes back to him, I saw he was staring at me with a blank expression. He blinked his eyes a few times but didn’t say anything for a long time.“It will be fake.” Axton leaned back and sighed as if my reaction had disappointed him. “If it makes yo

Zira-“Yes?” Axton looked over his shoulder at me.I felt embarrassed about asking him for anything, but I didn’t feel tired, and I wasn’t interested in sitting in the room with nothing to do. Now that I had a purpose, I wanted to get started on moving toward it. Leaning over to put the deposit slip back in the nightstand, I kept my eyes on him.“Do you have a computer or something I could use? Or a phone? I want to get on the internet.”A slow smile crept across Axton’s face as he pulled a hand out of his pocket and pointed to the far corner of the room. Following the direction of where he was pointing, I spotted a medium-sized desk with a laptop on it. I was about to climb out of bed to get it, but as I lifted the covers, Axton spoke.“I will get it.” Axton walked to the desk and grabbed the laptop and cord.Returning to my side, he handed me the laptop and then plugged the cord into the closest outlet. Extending my legs out, I placed the laptop on my lap. Once Axton finished pluggi

Axton-Instead of leaving to let her eat alone, I stayed with her. I watched her for a bit, just because I enjoyed looking at her. It was even better seeing how she seemed to savor every bite of food, at least for a bit until the reality of it hit me.I had made breakfast for her and although I knew how to cook, it was basic skills. It was something that an average person would eat on a daily basis. Yet, Zira hasn’t lived an average life. For her, this might be the best meal she has had in ten years, which caused my heart to bleed.I had my friend investigate her past more, but it was difficult to find any information. The little they found was enough to know that she had lived on noodles and three-day-old bread for most of the time. Ramen was the only thing she had bought but the bread was from old bread she received from a bakery near one of her jobs.Prior to a few years ago when she started working at the job, I wondered if she had eaten anything else, aside from ramen. I had talk

Axton-“Students at that school come from old and new money. Although teachers care more about your grades and academic level, many students will expect you to have money and show it off. If you don’t, you might get bullied.” I reached into my back pocket, pulled out my wallet, and retrieved a black credit card with silver letters.She seemed confused when I handed it to her, so I explained what I meant by giving it to her. “This card doesn’t have a spending limit. If you are going to go to that school, you will need this. You can spend as much as you want. No matter how much you spend, you will never go over the limit.”I thought she might argue that it shouldn’t matter how much money she had, but instead, she stayed quiet for a long time, stared at the card, and chewed on her lower lip. I didn’t know what she was thinking about, but as his expression changed from one emotion to another, I knew it couldn’t be good.I knew some of the things that had happened to her over the years, bu

Axton-Even if Zira was my fated mate and the one who truly belonged to me, that didn’t mean I loved her. I will admit I feel something for her, want to be around her, take care of and protect her, but I can’t say I was in love with her. Maybe after getting to know who she truly is, I might know how I feel.Except, the idea of learning that I wasn’t in love with her, wasn’t something I wanted. At the same time, I didn’t know if I wanted to be in love with her either. I have been a walking contradiction since the moment I felt my wolf respond to her.If I was smart, I would stay away from her, but I have never claimed to be smart. I could break the fated bond, and find a chosen mate, so I could live like a normal werewolf, but the idea of losing my connection to Zira made me physically ill.I knew it was mostly my wolf rejecting the idea because only a fated mate could truly connect with a wolf. I’m not even allowed to get near a female unless my wolf senses they aren’t a threat. A few

Axton-It wasn’t just the type that made her blood unique. It was the healing and magical properties the blood had. There were a lot of unknown variables, but I did know that her blood could bring someone from the brink of death. It didn’t work on humans or anyone with that type of blood, but it worked on other supernatural creatures.Regardless of what kind of injury someone had, as long as they get even a drop of blood, they would be instantly healed. I knew that only because when I had been a small child, Zira’s mother had saved me. I had been in a car accident that had claimed my parents’ life and it would have claimed mine if not for the single drop of blood I had received.As for my parents, they had already been dead by the time Zira’s mother arrived. It had also been that day that had allowed me to save my fated mate. When someone receives the Valdez blood, a magical link connects them and the one who had been saved must repay a blood debt.It is both a blessing and a curse to

Zira-The following day, I stood outside of the grand banquet hall on the top floor of the most luxurious hotel in the area. I had never been inside of the hotel until today, but I have heard that only wealthy people were allowed to stay. Each room was at least ten thousand dollars a night.Although Trenton had given Axton an invitation to attend the party, to give to me, I had still nearly been kicked out. I was sure it would have been a lot easier with or without the invitation if Axton had come with me, but he claimed he had something to handle before coming to the party. The only way I was able to get in, was because Axton called the hotel after I had texted him to let him know they weren’t letting me in.I could have had them verify it with Trenton, but I wasn’t interested in having him help anything, especially since I know what he intends to do. I had felt confident I could handle attending the party alone, at least for a bit, but now I wasn’t entirely sure.Standing outside of

Zira-After putting on the dress, I felt as if I was a completely different person. It felt as if I found the perfect dress, and I hadn’t even looked in the mirror. I was afraid to look in the mirror, as I didn’t want to get my hopes up, only to have them dashed away by Axton’s dislike.Keeping my chin down, I turned away from the mirror and opened the curtain. Once it was opened, I slowly lifted my chin to gauge Axton’s reaction. Unlike the other times I exited the changing room, Axton was standing up and gawking at me.His lips were parted as if he couldn’t hold his jaw up. His piercing blue eyes glistened with hunger as they roamed over my body. If I didn’t know any better, I would think he was undressing me in his mind. The thought was ridiculous, but it also made my skin crawl with anticipation.Slowly, his mouth closed, and I noticed the way his bulging Adam's apple bobbed up and down subtly, while his jaw muscles tensed. This was the first solid reaction I have received from hi

Zira-I hesitated slightly, but then quickly ran to follow Axton. When I reached the bottom step and I didn’t feel out of breath, I smiled and silently celebrated my small victory. After the first two days when I was allowed to leave my room, I finally managed to get around on my own. I still had to be careful and keep a slow pace, but now I felt almost normal.“Is everything okay?” Axton asked just as he walked toward me with a coat in his hands and my sneakers.“Everything is perfect.” My smile deepened as I took the shoes and sat on the stairs to put them on.When I stood, after putting on my shoes, Axton helped me put on my coat. Shortly after, we left through the door that led to the garage. This was the first time I had seen his cars. I had known he had money, but I never knew the extent of it until now.“Are these all yours?” My eyes widened as I took in all of the cars.I had known that the house I had been living in had a massive garage, but I doubt it was as big as Axton’s.

Zira-The day before my birthday, I was standing in front of my closet, frustrated beyond belief. For three hours I have been searching for the perfect outfit. Despite all the clothes I now owned, thanks to Axton, nothing seemed acceptable to wear during the supposed birthday party.Shortly after moving in with Axton, he had someone purchase a complete wardrobe for me. I loved everything, but nothing seemed to catch my attention right now. With a sigh, I sat on the pile of clothes I had discarded, on the bed.This was the first time in my life that I had so many beautiful clothes, but I still wasn’t satisfied. The clothes were name brands and I loved them, but tomorrow was going to be the official start of my new life. I didn’t know if I would be able to shift, but that didn’t matter.The only thing that mattered was I was going to let everyone know that I wasn’t going to allow them to treat me the way they have. I would also be publicly announced as Axton’s mate and husband. After di

Zira-I welcomed the world to swallow me whole and I prayed that it would. Unable to look into Axton’s eyes any longer, I lowered my gaze to the floor. I knew he had found out certain things about these last ten years, but I never expected him to find out anything more.I might not know how much he has found out, but I wasn’t ready for him to talk about it and reopen those wounds. I also didn’t want him to know that despite everything his family did to me, I still hoped they would accept me as part of their family and welcome me into their pack.A sane person would likely run as far away from them as possible. As for me, nope. I had continued to hope. I had even dreamed of becoming Trenton’s mate. There were days I would even look forward to seeing Trenton and his parents, even if I knew that the outcome wouldn’t be good.“I don’t want to know what you found.” I mumbled softly.“Okay, but I do want you to know something.” Axton’s voice was tender and without looking up I knew he had m

Zira-For the following week, I felt like a robot. If I wasn’t sleeping or taking an occasional nap when my energy levels were down, I was studying. Three times a day, Axton would bring a meal for me, and he would force me to stop studying and eat. He wouldn’t leave me alone while I was eating, which kind of freaked me out.It would be different if he had a meal with me instead of watching me eat. Other than those three times, he would come to my room twice a day to give me a bowl of medicine that looked like blood but tasted of herbs. I had asked what it was, but he refused to tell me.He would also watch me drink the medicine and tell me every time that I had to drink it all. When I drank it in the morning, it wasn’t as bad. Before bed, however, was difficult because the taste wasn’t pleasant, and it was twice as much.Axton told me it was to speed up my healing, so I didn’t complain, since after two days of taking it, I did notice I felt much better. Doctor Tessa had even told me t

Zira-After Axton woke me up with another meal, I felt more energized than I had in a long time. Not because I was woken up with food, which was a plus, but because I was excited to start a new chapter in my life. Considering the conversation I had with Axton, prior to sleep, I also felt more confident.I did feel weird about it because I wasn’t used to someone wanting to take care of me, but I at least had a better mindset now. I also wasn’t as reluctant to accept help. It might be hard for me for a while, but if I wanted to turn my life around, I needed to try.After I finished eating, my mood improved a lot more. Not only did Jeremy come to discuss my future, but the other three tutors arrived as well. Instead of staying in my room with everyone, Axton had carried me down to the living room. I was extremely embarrassed, but it seemed as if I was the only one who noticed or cared.For the following hour, I got to know my tutors on a basic level, while Axton sat beside me and listene

Axton-“My blood isn’t poisonous, but it might be to her.” I said since I didn’t know what kind of effect my blood would have on her, especially with her blood type.“What do you mean?” He asked.“She has a rare blood type.” I admitted and hoped he didn’t become too curious.“Don’t worry, since this won’t be entering her direct bloodline, neither of your blood types would matter.”That did make sense, so I was no longer concerned. “Okay, so what kind of risk are we talking about?”“The amount of blood I would need from you would be a lot. The ratio between blood and medicine is five to one. Since I would be doubling the dosage, I would need a pint of blood each time she takes the medication. She would also need to take the medication twice a day for two weeks, which is twenty-four pints of blood.”I didn’t know much about human anatomy, but I knew that even as werewolves it was similar. “Is that a lot?”“Considering our body on average only has eight to ten pints of blood in our body,
