After Five Years, Mates And Unrejected

Elaina POV

I would be twenty now in a few days, five years since their death in some months and five years in prison, unable to see the sunlight or even bathe in its glow.

I could swear the moon goddess has long forgotten about me too, I mean who wouldn't do so.? With someone as worthless as I was, it would be a miracle if no one hadn't forgotten that there was once a wolfless girl in their pack and in their world.

It has been four whole years of meaningless wars and still, the fight has not come for this pack and that made me mad every single day. The guards talked a lot so I knew it wouldn't be long now. The Alpha called Fermion had gone through four packs, I didn't know why he was saving this one for last but I loved it.

They had all only tortured me and given my vagina and body a wide berth after that incident with Jason. I could see that none of them wanted to try it even if I knew many of them might win but the fear was still instilled in them.

Alpha Jason had come multiple times to torture me himself. He had healed now but I knew there would always be a mark there as a glaring reminder whenever he tried to molest young innocent girls and women.

And fuck did that not make me happy, I had suffered in his hands and this would be the only thing that I had ever done to him and I was happy because I left a mark.

At a place where it would be seen for the rest of his life and judged, he gave me bruises that would last me forever or till I died but I had gotten used to it but him, ot would take far longer than I did.

I laid there on the cold hard ground, unable to move after a session of torture when three sounds of bells ringing had my eyes widening.

The day I had long waited for had finally arrived. I laughed, the sound hollow and devoid of any feeling at all. I was coming to see you mother, father, the boys. It was time and someone else was helping us get our revenge.

What better way than to go this way? The guards here all rushed out and soon the sounds of growls and howls filled my ears but still, I made no move to try and leave where I was at..

But then, a harsh growl sent ripples running through my skin and my eyes snapped open to find a dark figure stood at the cell door.

A sweet scent hit me and I was hit by this sudden urge to force my way to this mysterious figure. He held the cells doors and bent them beyond repair as he took steps into the room.

“M-my m-mate” he forced out, his voice sounding broken to my ears and my eyes widened with shock before I tried to move away but couldn't.

He bent down and tried touching me but held back. Of course, he would also reject me. But this time, there was no one else left to kill but me and although the train of thoughts pained me, I knew it was for the best.

“Do it. Reject me” I forced out, my voice low but clear. His face was still a mystery to me but his voice vibrated through me as he growled. The sound filled with primal rage.

“I would never” he spat out, as though the sound of doing what I had asked pained him just as much as it disgusted him and my eyebrows shot up with surprise.

“No…?” My voice came out very low and filled with the rawness I had never heard from me since their death.

“Never, you don't look so good” understatement of the century. He grabbed my arms and tore the chains with a growl of anger before he picked me up into his arms and that was when I knew that I was a really small girl.

I looked like a child held in his arms but he held me reverently and I found myself sighing before I relaxed into him. I had so many bruises from years of torture but it didn't hurt at that moment.

Instead it felt good, like I could fall asleep forever and never wake up. “Hey, don't sleep on me” but my eyes rolled into the back of my head and I instantly lost consciousness.

When next my eyes opened, I found myself staring blurrily at a white ceiling decorated with tiny pieces of lights that kept flickering between warm and white and ih brought a smile to my face.

I glanced around and concluded that I was dead, so long locked in that dark place and this was the first light I had seen in years.

It was so bright for my eyes that it began to hurt but I couldn't let my eyes go shut for fear of that same darkness tha had been my old normal for five whole years.

Tears began to stream down my face when the door was pushed open and a guy walked into the room, my first instinct was to hide away or run from him but then he saw that I was awake and flashed me a genuine smile that had me stopping in my tracks.

“Who are you?” I asked, my voice cracking from my sore and dry throat and he instantly rushed to the jar by my bed to fill a cup with water and presented it to me.

“I'm Healer Grayson, you can call me gray” he said, his smile still in place but as j rank that water and felt that residual fear still rearing it's head inside of me, I couldn't find it in me to reciprocate his smile.

“Where is this place?” I asked once again and he glanced around with something I could only tag as pride.

“You're in, Crimson Howl Pack. Alpha Fermion brought you in” he sounded like he was amused at the last words but it had my body going rigid.

“Alpha who??” I asked, my voice low as I tried to figure out if he was the same person I had seen as my mate, I hadn't seen his face and neither had we made any introductions but his aura told me he was very important.

And before I passed out, I never thought he might hold a significant position in the pack he came from, whatever it was.

I had no idea it was the most brutal and ruthless pack ever created.

“Alpha Fermion, of course.” He relied before he came to check on my bruises but I flinched when his hand reached out and without meaning to, a loud scream left my lips and I slapped his hands off as fear eroded my being.

He can't touch me, none of them could. I won't let it. My mind was in a haze but then, that same smell from the last time I passed out hot me again and the haze cleared as someone enveloped me in their arms.

The scent drew me closer, made me want to live there forever and ever and it made me feel so safer than I had ever felt in my entire life.

I snuggled in closer without opening my eyes, taking a long sniff as my whole body reacted to him. I stuck my nose into his neck without meaning to and without any thoughts or care in my mind, I pulled open my lips and bit into his skin.

Hard.
