— Lilian’s POV —
Fiona.38
I asked her, “Hey Fiona. What are you doing here?” She tried to explain why she was here but since she was panting so heavily, all I could make out was he regret or reject. I quickly let her in and brought her into the family room and then went to the kitchen to get her some water.
Then, I brought to it her and she drank it greedily. After her breathing was normal, I asked her once more, “What are you doing here Fiona?” When she looked up at me, she had tears in her eyes. I went to her and comforted her and asked, “What’s wrong.” She was silent for a few minutes but then, “I-I found my mate.” I smiled at her but judging from the tears falling from her eyes, it can’t be good.
“Who is it?” she started to tear up again but then she said, “Steve Jones. Maggie’s older brother.” I was shocked but then quickly asked her. “Then why are crying love? Did he do something wrong?”
Then she was sobbing hard. She said, “He *sob* rejected *sob* me.” I froze in my seat and asked her through gritted teeth, “Why did he reject you?” She said, “I don’t know! He wouldn’t tell me! All he said was ‘I don’t want you to get hurt because of me.’ What the hell does that even mean?!”13
I was about to ask her something when my front door broke down.
BANG! 118
I quickly got up from my seat and went to peek to see who it was. It was a 6’3 guy who looked at least 28 and from his scent, he smelled like a rogue.
Damn it.
Fiona looked at me and I pointed to the kitchen and mouthed, “Run and get help.” She nodded quickly and ran to the back door while I stood in front of this guy and said, “You know, it’s very impolite to knock down someone else’ door without permission.” He growled at me and asked through gritted teeth, “Where’s she?” I gave him a confused look and said, “I have no idea what your talking about.”8
In a second, he pinned me to the wall and said, “I have no time for games here, so tell me where Fiona is and I’ll let you go!” I froze and asked, “Why do you want Fiona?” He said, “Since she’s Steve’s mate who is beta of his pack, we want him to handover his pack over to us.” I asked,” What about the Alpha’s mate? Even if you had a beta’s mate, it still wouldn’t be enough.” He laughed at me and said, “We already took her and now all we need is Fiona.” He tightened his fingers around me and said, “So are you going to tell me where she is or am I gonna have to take you with me?” I tried to pry his fingers of my neck but it didn’t work. He growled and tightened again while I said, “Never. You want to know why?” He asked, “Why?”11
I gave him a smug look and said, “This is why.” I kneed him in the balls and pinned him to the ground with him still groaning with pain. I said to him, “What makes you think I’m gonna go with you?” He smirked at me and said, “I know your just showing this tough girl look Lilian.” I froze and asked while tightening my fingers around his neck, “How do you know my name?”11
He just gave me a smirk while I tightened my fingers around him and shouted, “Answer me!”
He growled but continued to smirk at me and said, “Your cousin Cherry mentioned you back when we were still close.”8
I froze and asked him, “How the hell do you know Cherry!” He gave me a fake hurt look and said, “Aww you don’t remember me Lilian? Well then let me introduce myself.” After he said that, he pinned me so hard to the ground that I was seeing black dots.
I only managed to hear what he said and just couldn’t believe it. He said, “I’m Spencer Slater. Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack or was and your dear sweet cousin Cherry, was my mate.”98
Everything went black after that.
