"Helena!" Dad spat out. I didn't have time to react before he shifted into his brown wolf and leaped on me. "Helena!" I heard screaming but it was too late. My Dad started clawing at my face and by each swipe. I felt a burn and blood trickled down the side of my face. "You're stupid! How could embarrass me in front of the whole pack?!" My Dad sent through a mind link. My brain wasn't registering anything. I didn't know when someone pulled my Dad away because all I was seeing was black. I felt the blood continuously drip down my neck and down my cheeks. I could smell the scent of blood which was making me nauseous. "Stay with me. . . Please, baby. Stay with me." I heard someone shout but all I wanted to do was sleep. So that's what I did. ** "Helena, are you awake?" My eyes fluttered open to see Aaron's handsome face looking deeply at me. I smiled at him and he sighed in relief. "God, I thought something had happened to you!" And that's when it all hit me. I reached up to touch
"Helena..." Alpha Imer smirked at me. My eyes widened and jumped out of my bed. "Aaron!" I screamed as loud as I could but Imer snatched me, and threw me out the open window. I was waiting for the hard impact I was going to make when I fell to the sidewalk but nothing came. I opened my eyes and let out a terrified shriek. My father held me in his arms. His face had dried blood, covering it and his canines were out. "Make another sound, Helena, and you're fucking screwed." My father growled lowly at me. I heard someone land beside my father and saw Imer, smirking. "Let's go. We are going home." Tears started to pour down the side of my face, and I tried to get out of Dad's grip. His hand rose and slapped me across the face when I protest. "Don't make this hard for ourselves, Helena. I will kill you right now if you keep doing this," Dad warned me. They were still running, and I kept trying to get out of his grip. He threw me onto the ground and kicked my sides. The air was knoc
"I don't wanna go home. Please, Dad!" I cried out in pain. "Shut the fuck up, Helena, so you don't get hit again." My father said angrily in my face. "What did I ever do to you?" "You did everything. From the day you were born, I disliked you." He spat in my face. I took my sleeve and wiped away the spit. My legs were shackled in chains made of silver. Every time I moved them, they would burn and hurt. "Aaron will come for me." I whispered, full of hope. "Stop this craziness of yours, Helena! You will marry Imer, and that is my final decision." "Alpha, someone needs your assistance upstairs." Imer called out. He came down the steps and looked at me. "If Helana bothers you, just hit her," Dad replied. He sneered at me and walked up the steps. Once I heard the door slam close, Imer came to my side. My mouth fell opened when he unlocked the silver chains from my legs and helped me up. "W-What are you doing?" I asked astonished. "Imer. . . What are you doing?" "Helping you out. D
My heart pounded when the words left Imer's mouth. "Nothing will happen, baby." Aaron tried to soothe me, but it wasn't working. When Imer said my father was in a foul mood, that meant he would destroy everyone and everything that was in his way. "Helena!" A voice boomed. A voice I didn't want to hear. . . "Stay behind." Aaron growled. He quickly turned into his black wolf. My brother Felix, turned into his wolf and leaped forward. He snapped his teeth at Imer, and slowly walked over to the door. Felix ferociously snapped his teeth and soon my fathers' bloody body came into view. "Stay away," Don warned, but my father just chuckled. Aaron's wolf was huffing and his teeth continued to snap. I sidestepped away from them but Aaron was watching, and he pushed me behind him. He snapped his teeth at me, and Christian held me in place. I pushed his hands away and quickly got out of the way. "D-Dad, if it's me you want to talk to then here I am," I announced calmly. But inside, I was
AARON "Mother, what a surprise!" I plastered a fake smile, and so did she. "Likewise, honey. May I talk to you?" She looked at Helena, and back at me. "In private." I looked to Helena, and she got out of my arms and made her way back upstairs. I looked back at my mother and saw her eyeing me. "Why didn't you tell me you had found your mate? I was told through another pack member. Am I not your mother anymore?" She rambled. I rolled my eyes at her. "You would've stayed my mom even if I didn't tell you." I chuckled. She huffed and folded her arms. "I've just been kind of busy with all of the situations going on." I mumbled. "It looks like your mate has caused quite a scene already," she replied. My eyes snapped at her and I balled my fist. "She's my mate. I don't care what she does. I'll love her no matter what, Mom." I growled at her. I didn't want to show disrespect in front of my own mother, but my wolf didn't enjoy the fact that she was accusing our mate. "I never question
Aaron's face turned a bright shade of red, and he glared at me. "Where did you here that nonsense?" He growled. He grabbed onto my waist and lightly pushed his fingers in. "A little birdie told me." I smirked in response. He growled out loud and his eyes grew wider and got darker. Even though he was growling and annoyed, a light blush crawled his cheeks. "Where did you here that, Helena?" He growled yet again. I continued to smirk. He lightly pushed me down and got on top of me. "I never kissed walls and teddy bears." He snapped. "That's not what the little birdie told me." His claws dug into my skin, and I winced in pain. "I'm sorry." He quickly got off me and was about to walk away. I grabbed onto his arm, pulling him back. "Are you really mad?" I pouted. He huffed in annoyance and removed my hand from his. "I don't know! Go ask that little birdie of yours." He huffed and walked away. My jaw dropped open, and I just looked at his retreating back. "Are you serious?" I mum
My eyes turned into wide saucers and I looked helplessly between Felix and the ground. "Mr.Shaw, we were ju—" "What's all this commotion?" The little food I had eaten was making a reappearance. "Nothing, son," Aaron's father said, eyeing me. "Helena, is that you?" Aaron squinted in the dark. Felix placed a hand on my shoulder, and tried to keep me calm. "What are you doing out here so late?" He reached us in a few strides and pulled me to my brother. Aaron snuggled his nose in my hair, inhaling and exhaling. His warm breath burned my skin even more and I fidgeted around. "Aren't you supposed to be mad at me?" I blurted out. I mentally face palmed myself. That's exactly what I should have not said to him. Aaron pulled back, and glared at me. I shrunk back and looked at the ground. "Felix, why don't you go head off to bed?" I heard Zain, Aaron's father tell Felix sternly. I knew Felix wanted to disagree but I glanced at him and gave him a pleading look. Felix sighed and ruf
AARON "Zain, leave the poor girl alone!" My mother snapped to my father. "I'm just saying that this boy will ruin his future with her, Katherine." Dad sneered. "She's not good for him." I was seething. "You know what, Dad? Have you ever thought what was best for me? What was best for my future? No. Then back the hell up. Helena is my mate and I will not take anymore of your nonsense. If you have a problem then deal with it. But stop, and I mean stop, talking to my mate like she's a horrible person. Because clearly, she's the most amazing person I've ever met." I had enough of all the shit he was saying. Dad looked at me with wide eyes, surprised that I would talk to him like that. My mother, on the other hand, was looking at me with proud eyes because I finally stood up for something in my life. "Because when she fucks up your life, then I will be the first to say, I told you so!" Dad shouted and stalked off. Helena looked out of place and she was close to tears. "Sweetheart,
