Chapter 8: Where are you Cain?

“Clay you should stop joking around,” I sternly said hoping to turn the situation over and throw him off with my confidence. It was difficult to fake a hard demeanor though because there was madness reflecting in his blue eyes.

“Shut up, you stupid bitch!” he spat his hands fisting his shirt and ripping it open all the way off his body. Balling it in his hands, he threw it aside and glaring at me he said, “I don’t want to hear you whine about anything.”

Nonetheless garnering some more strength I scoffed as I said, “You know that others can hear you threaten me, right?”

Grinning at me he cocked an eyebrow and laughed as he said, “Then shout and try calling them. Do you think I am a fool to be doing this here if I would get caught so easily?”

That would make sense and it was normal for werewolves to have their rooms soundproofed given that we were creatures with sensitive ears and no one wanted to hear a couple’s private conversations at night.

‘Cain, Clay has gotten hold of me in a room, please help me,’ I mind linked Cain but somehow, I felt a block in my thoughts that were trying to reach him. That made me furrow my brows and trying harder once again I tried talking to Cain, ‘Cain! Can you hear me? Please save me from your lunatic brother!’

When he still didn’t respond I could tell that something was very wrong but still not giving up I decided to try Leia and Michael but none of them were answering back as well.

What was happening?

A sinister laugh reverberated from near me and standing at the foot of the bed, very close to me, I saw Clay looking down at my slightly shaken body as he said, “Don’t you understand? This was a plan to lure you here to me and then destroy you.”

“What do you mean?” I asked my voice barely coming out as I stared into his eyes that were looking as calm as the ocean on a sunny day. There was even a hint of pity in them and smiling at me he said, “I didn’t want to tell you this now but I guess there is no saving you. I was originally going to tell you after I fucked you but the truth is that, actually your family and your mate are all tired of your wimpy existence. They don’t want you or need you.”

What is he trying to say?

‘Xara! Please try connecting Leia again,’ I told my wolf but to my surprise I am met with silence.

‘Xara?’ I called again but nothing came from her side and when I tried to feel her, I could only get a faint hint of her existence in myself.

Where was she?

A hand traced the outline of my heel making me pull them in towards my body and away from the repulsing touch that nevertheless caused a goosebump to go through me.

“That shouldn’t be how you should be reacting to the only person that is here for you now, right?” Clay laughed and sitting on the edge of the bed while I moved away from him, he chuckled, “They gave you to me, to do whatever I please with. You can only be mine now Asa and you are not worthy of my kindness but I am not as bad as them.”

What was he talking about?

Did he really think I would believe his bullshit?

He must have done something to me to have my mind link be shut down or else Leia, Michael or Cain would have come here barging in to show this retarded scumbag his right place.

He must have been trying to take advantage of the slight hesitation and confusion that he must have seen in my eyes before but seriously, Clay should have been more aware of my relation with my family and my mate.

Just because the whole pack treated me inferior to my sister doesn’t mean that she did that too.

Stepping forward another step he let a hand roam down his body as he said, “Stare as much as you want as this will be the only body ever touching you.”  

His words disgusted me and I realized that he had taken my alerted gaze as something else. It worried me as a thought came that he might have taken my eyes to be beckoning him. But if I didn’t look at him, how was I going to protect myself?

I had to find a way to escape him but even if Clay was more than just muddle headed there was no way I could defeat him with those brawns and his innate power of an Alpha. My only option was to stall for time as long as I could hoping that Cain would soon come looking for me.

“You know I am happy that you rejected me. I would have hated to be mated to such a dumb person,” I said and I know my words would trigger him but I needed to keep him talking. If I acted docile now then he would sooner than later start taking advantage of me.

At my words the tranquility had left the oceans in his eyes and the storm was hungry for devastation.

“How dare you say that to me!” he shouted grabbing onto my leg that I had tucked under me and pulling me down closer to him he spat in my face, “I was giving you a chance to be a little more agreeable to your situation but if you don’t want it then don’t blame me for being rough with you!”

With that he aggressively grabbed my breasts and squeezed it while looking at me with a crazed expression on his face, “How dare you look happy with him? You should be crying for me to take you back. I am your mate and only I decide what happens to you!”

This asshole!

Struggling against him I tried to kick him away but he had jammed my legs down by pressing his lower jeans clad body on it. The material chafed my unprotected skin and my struggling was only causing it to hurt more.

Grabbing his hand that was unsurprisingly adamant in puncturing my breasts I tried to pull them away as he yanked at my globes, causing them to hurt in such a painful manner that tears pricked my eyes. Staring at them sliding down the side of my face, he said, “Yes! That’s what I wanted to see! You are regretting being with him now, right? He doesn’t make you feel this pleasure, right? I know you are repenting so you can cry as much as you want, I won’t stop you.”

His face was split into a grin and although I didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of seeing my tears his hands mauling my chest and then pinching my nipples were not only causing me physical pain but also mental pain.

Where are you Cain?

Pulling my hand away from his arms I put them on his chest to move him away but since Xara wasn’t anywhere available, I couldn’t even share her strength with me to help me out of this situation. I wasn’t strong enough to protect myself and the thought only brought more tears to my eyes.

I am sorry Cain.

“You know you might have been lacking in every aspect but your boobs aren’t’ as bad as I thought they were,” and as he said that a hungry look flashed his eyes and tugging down the hemline of my dress that had only barely been covering me before he stared at my bare breasts.

I had been wearing one of those dress that came with a built-in bra and I wanted to curse at myself for not protecting myself better. Why did I have to wear this particular dress today? Right, it was because I wanted to look pretty for my mate. I did not want this to be used as an opportunity to have my mate’s twin and my ex-mate take advantage of me!

“You are such a slut you didn’t even wear a bra!” he exclaimed staring at my milky breast that had been bared to someone else’s eyes for the first time. Looking straight up at the face that had not even been gazing at me I noticed how similar they looked to my mate’s face, the man I loved and I desperately hoped that somehow miraculously this situation would somehow turn out to be lie.

Why are you doing this to me Moon Goddess?

I had wanted Cain to be the first person to see my body, to love me with his eyes, his words and all of him like he had done in this very short time we had been together.

His rough hands finally descended on my untouched skin now and leaning down he kissed the top of my cleavage, continuing to glid his tongue down to my nipple. That was it. I can’t do anything now; I was currently wolf less and with only my human powers I wouldn’t be able to get rid of this beast at all.

“Please let me go, Clay,” I cried and though I didn’t want to beg to the likes of him I had no other option left if I wanted to save my chastity.

“I can’t, I won’t,” he said going lower, down my body as he tore apart my dress further as he travelled down all the way to my navel. Sucking on my stomach just below it and dangerously close to my panties he said, “I will not let him have you. You were supposed to be mine and only I can decide what happens to you.”

Why was he like this Moon Goddess? How could a person be so different? This was not the Clay that I had come to know.

“Are you ready to be completely mine?” he asked, a slight hint of affection and excitement evident in his voice and caressing the sides of my body gently he said, “Well, we don’t have much time, I need to do this quick.”

And with a final tug he ripped open my dress completely as I let out a suppressed cry of fear and dread. I don’t want this to happen to me! Why me? What did I do to him? Didn’t he already reject me then why was he still after me?

“No! Please Clay, stop. Don’t do this! When the others get to know about it, they will only punish you for this,” I prattled trying to hit some nerve in him that would make him retreat.

“But till then it would be too late, even if they punish me, no one would want you then and you would have no other option than to stay with me,” he said looking me in my eyes after a long while. They were smiling at me in a psychotic hysteria and cupping the side of my face he said, “After this Cain would never want you even if he is your second chance mate and I’ll tell you a secret why.”

His face that had been full of lust for my body had shifted to this piece of information that seemed to be causing him more pleasure as he decided to tell it to me. Holding both of my struggling hands in his he started unbuckling his belt with the other as he said, “That’s because the only reason my cruel and uncaring brother is with someone like you is because he only wanted to feel at a superior position than me. He knows that I hate it when he takes my things whether, I like them or not and since you were originally mine that is now willingly staying with him that gave him a feeling of superiority and victory.”

He took a pause as if gauging my reaction and then said, “He is just using you to get to me. You are my weakness and that’s the only reason why he wants you. Have you ever seen him react to any other situation unless it’s useful to him? He is calculative and you are just a chess piece in his game.”

I don’t believe it but…

“You know it’s true, right? How can a person as emotionless and deadly ever love anyone?” As he said this, he brought a finger to the waist band of my underwear and hooking a finger in, slowly slipping it down he meaningfully said, “Be mine.”

Clay was obviously lying but if he wasn’t then Cain wasn’t going to come to save me.

Was this why he still wasn’t here?

As my heart started thudding in my chest, I could only repeat one chant in my mind.

Please save me Cain, I am trying to trust you.
