Bound To Twins

Melissa POV

“ And where do you think you are going, little wolf?” A voice so deep makes me halt in my steps. Turning around slowly, I come face to face with him, the man who has been nothing but good to me since I arrived here, or should I say the monster. That's what he is, a monster disguised in a human body.

But wait, that doesn't feel right. If he's a monster, then ain't I also one of them?

“ I'm leaving from here, Mason. I can't seem to wrap my finger around whatever nonsense you've been feeding me. I can't accept it and don't want to accept it. Furthermore, I don't belong here.” I replied.

This is not what I was made for! I'm no monster who turns all fluffy and howls in the midnight. I am no monster. Not only that, but I am a police officer. An officer who has dedicated all her life to serving the people of the United States. I uphold justice and apprehend lawbreakers and not break the law itself.

“ Should I remind you that you are the most wanted criminal now for the murder of not one but a countless number of citizens of the United States? Do you think you will be able to survive a day without being thrown into jail? Do you think anybody will listen to your stupid claims of innocence with all the evidence pointing at you?” He thundered, his voice taunting me.

I know he wasn't trying to be harsh, that's the reality of my life. I was now a nationally wanted criminal for homicide. Linked with more than thirty deaths in the state with sufficient evidence, I was bound to be detained and charged without trial.

“Besides, you belong here, with us as our mate and the Luna of this pack. This is your fate, and the sooner you accept it, the better for everyone.”

“Enough!” I cut him off sharply, irritated. “ I belong to no one but myself. I am nobody's s*x slave, or whatever it is you are saying! I will choose how to live my Life and won't allow just anybody to direct me or plan my life like I'm a three-year-old!” I shot back, glaring at him.

When will he ever understand that I don't believe that mating nonsense he has been insisting on? I have every right to choose who I want to be with in life. The idea of having two males in my life is not sitting well with me. I saw the man clench his fists tightly to form a ball. He was obviously p*ss*d, but I didn't care. His mood has nothing to do with me, and I couldn't care less what he's feeling. After all, he's a monster, and I am uncertain whether he is capable of having human feelings.

“ I have a boyfriend and that's precisely where I am heading to. If others don't believe me, he will believe me. I will prove to the world that all those deaths have nothing to do with me.” I spat furiously.

Likewise, I wanted him to give up this stupid idea of us being mates. If he thought I'll just sit my *ss down and do nothing, he was so wrong about that. I am a police officer and I had to find out what exactly was happening. I have to understand the conspiracy that led me to this kind of sh*t. The earlier he understood that there was no us, the better.

“ Repeat what you just said!” He growled, his primal instincts kicking in, making my hair stand and my body tremble. I knew that I might have pushed my luck or his patience on me worn out. The next thing I knew, I was pressed on his body, my back hitting his chest as I felt his breath fan the side of my face.

“ You would not want to have another death added to your list of serial murders, right?” His voice was cold and threatening, and I felt my body stiffen.

When the meaning of his words finally registered in my mind, I shivered. He was practically threatening me with the death of my boyfriend, Mark.

“ I am warning you, you better not say the name of that pathetic, weak human in front of me if you still want him alive.”

Fear gripped my heart. I knew he was capable of doing that, maybe even more. I can still remember how, with his monster form, he had ripped apart countless officers. With his hands, he had claimed lives in front of me. He didn't seem remorseful, even after slaughtering and taking human lives.

As a police woman, I know when to take a step back, so I nodded obediently. I was scared that he would really carry on with his threat if I said something to anger him.

“ Good, now you'll walk back to your room and stay there. You are not allowed to step outside until I say so, and you should know better than to disobey me. Since you don't want us to do this the easy way, we will have to do it the hard way. I hope after this you can learn what to say and not say in front of me.”

I didn't wait before scurrying away. Likewise, I know better than to challenge his authority. He's no human, he's a beast, a beast I should probably stay away from.

I made sure to lock the door before laying on the bed. The memories of how I ended up here are flashing through my mind.

Flashback

Two months ago.

In a meeting room attended by various departments of the criminal investigation unit, I sat there as the only newly transferred police from the FBI unit.

“ There has been rampant killing of most of our criminal suspects. It has come to my attention that before our officers can proceed with the arrest, the criminals are found dead a day earlier or two. I don't believe in coincidences, so I take it as a blatant provocation.” The commander said, his eagle-like eyes sweeping through the room.
