Each day has been so great, with his kisses which have become an addiction to me. Marcy has become very distant. I never see her at dinner or even at any meal. It's like she decided to keep to herself. The other people don't mind. Is it how it's going to be like?
It's been days since I started my green house. I am still thinking of flowers to plant.Everyday, Mason is getting close to me and I am happy. He comes by the garden and helps to water all the flowers that I have planted. He doesn't stop kissing me and I am not complaining but how will I feel if he ends up with another person? Will I be hurt? Of course but to what extent? I have been scared to ask myself these questions.Rebecca is doing fine, she had already made friends with many people here. She is been busy helping in the clinic. She seems happy. I am also happy. I get to spend most of my time searching for flowers in the forests. I made a friend as well. Her name is Lily. She is really friendly but there is something off about her. I just don't know what.As for my search for Emilda, it isn't going so well. I had tried to ask for Mason's help. But on second thought it didn't make sense to ask it from him. He wasn't anything to me. We just spent time together, kissing and that's it. Even if I like him. It's a crush that might not matter to him."Little one.......Charlotte!" He called shaking me slightly. I had been lost in thought and I forgot we were picking wild berries and herbs for Rebecca."Sorry what were you saying?" I asked awkwardly trying so hard to make him understand."I was just saying let's hurry it looks like it's about to rain."I looked up in the sky. He was right, the clouds had darkened threatening to bring astounding rain."Okay."I began picking the berries at a quick pace not wanting to disappoint Rebecca. After all she has become a mother figure to me since the day I came here. It wasn't long as the silence between the two of us got interrupted by a loud roar of thunder and a lightning spark as the water droplets began to fall, little by little getting harsh and wetting our clothes.If not for Mason who dragged me to an abandoned house near the clearing, we would've to feel the heavy downpour in our bones."Are you okay?" he asked as he searched for something around the room. It was getting dark and darker and I felt scared to be out in the forest at this hour and it was raining too.After his searching, he brought a blanket and prepared fire. We were both wet and I felt really cold and thirsty at the same time."You don't look so well." Mason pointed out getting close to me. He put his palm on my foreheard."You're burning up." I don't know what he meant because I was feeling cold. I shivered feeling the cold air passing through my wet clothes."You have a fever," he declared as he brought a blanket and wrapped it around me. He looked at me as if he was begging for forgiveness for what he was about to do. He put his hand on my blouse trying to get it off. I let him. I had no energy in me to get him to let go. He removed my skirt too. It was as if he was shaking as he removed everything and left me bare. He spread the blanket on top of me and went outside leaving me alone. I could still hear the sounds from the rain outsides pit patttering on the rusted roof.I saw that he was holding himself back, as if controlling the desire within him. I am happy he did it for me. I could still feel the touch of the cold on my bearly covered skin and a sharp headache announcing its arrival. What were we gonna do? I hated to be this weak in front of him. I shivered wishing for more warmth. He returned with some dish full of water. He put it on fire, heating it up as fast as he could. Putting more firewood to make the fire much bigger. He waited for it to boil and sat beside me. He looked at me with pain in his eyes. It's as if all this has been taking a toil on him.When the water started boiling, he tore off his shirt and deeped one of the piece in the water. I could see the steam coming out of the dish but still I felt cold. He brought the cloth to my forehead and placed it there. Finally I felt some warmth. I didn't realize I was sweating till then. He wiped all the sweat on my face. He looked so concentrated as if I was fragile at that moment. He wiped my body and took off the rest of the shirt covering my body and putting the blanket on top.I was feeling a little better. I felt my eyes drooping and yearned for some sleep. I kept on squinting my eyes for some time. In spite of the rain making too much noise, I ended up sleeping.The next morning, I opened my eyes to see Mason by my side. He looked exhausted. It seems he didn't have any sleep. He had not seen me when I looked outside to see that it was still raining but it had lessened a bit. Mason was wearing a jean only that he had lent his shirt to me."You are awake. How are you feeling?" I watched him as he made his way to where I was laying in the way holding my hand in his."A little better. What about you, you look like a ghost did you have some rest," I asked getting worried. He smiled gently before reaching for my head caressing my hair."I am fine don't worry. Anyway the rain hasn't died down yet. Hopefully it will be gone soon. We don't have anything to eat. Yesterday we left your baskets outside and I am sure they are likely to be ruined "I nodded not really sure what to say. He remained holding my hands with his. The familiar tingles spreading like always. I looked at his exposed chest expecting to see goose bumps for it was still chilly due to the light showers. But I did not see any so I decided to look where the fire had just been last night.It was replaced by ashes and the dish he had used was exposed at the corner."Can I please have some water," I asked feeling thirsty. He released my hand and exited the room returning with a tumbler full of clean water. I thanked him and gulped it down my groggy throat with one gulp. He watched me as I did this and freely wiped a drop which had escaped. A smile surfaced on his mouth and just in time we both looked outside to see that the rain was slowly dying down. And we could go home.Our clothes had dried and the rain had stopped. My fever was also gone. Mason had to step outside so that I could change. Even though he had seen my whole body, it would be embarrassing changing fully naked in front of him. He put on his shirt, luckily he had torn at the edge where it could be tucked in.After that we made our way back home. We travelled on the muddy grounds and the trees were still dripping wet as we proceeded towards the house. I could see the kids playing in the mud as the mothers yelled and the fathers smiled as they watched over their families. It brought a smile upon my face. I don't remember since when I have been longing for a family I could call my own. I looked at Mason who seemed to be in thought. I smiled as I continued to follow behind him.We entered the house, seeing Rebecca dishing breakfast. She got too excited seeing us making our way to her."Hey are you both okay?" She asked with a guilt face on."I am sorry I shouldn't have sent you there. If only
MASON'S POVThinking about what happened yesterday makes me want to stay in my room for the rest of the upcoming days. I was quite disappointed when she budged out of my hold."Ah, I need to go see Rebecca now!" She had said running towards the door. It is funny that a little part of me wanted to stop her from going and the other wanted to let her have some space. Sean is making me confused. Every moment I take in her image, I have this urge to kiss her lips and let my hands roam all over her body.To think that I nearly slept with her. She was quick to push me away. She is lucky because if she didn't Sean would have claimed what is ours. Yes, what's ours.I know I have been resisting the fact that we are mates. But what to do all because of this mate bond, it's becoming harder to resist her. Or the mate bond is just an excuse for what I desire. I don't know how I became like this but I know I really want her by my side. I can see that she doesn't even have a speck of trust for me. Af
CHARLOTTE POV After going through the whole ideal, I finally succumbed to sleep. Mason was by my side, surprisingly holding my hand in his. It's funny he gets to take care of me each time I get sick. Is it the gods that make things happen this way or is it just a coincidence? I was happy that I got to talk with Marcy. Even though she never explained why I couldn't see her for a while and why she has been avoiding me a lot lately. It is about five in the evening after my sleep. I woke up seeing no one by my side. But I could see a chair beside my bed. This made me smile because I knew he was by my side when I was sleeping. I hear someone coming. "Why are you happy?" He asks closing the door. "Because someone stayed by my side," I replied truthfully expecting him to ask more questions but he didn't. He smiled a genuine smile he is showing for the first time. I find myself smiling as well. "So little one can you accompany me somewhere?" I noticed he is wearing a black suit and it fi
CHARLOTTE'S POV Mate!Mate!Mate!It's been quite some time since this single word constantly keeps haunting me. Taking away my precious sleep and awakening the anxiousness buried deep down inside of me. Wondering if Mason had talked about it. But I am sure he did, thinking of it not once had he mentioned it but also the day I first came here. Or to say the day I was captured. A couple of times I guess. I can even remember Rebecca and Marcy mentioning it too. I don't know the reason behind his reluctance to tell me. All that needs to be done is to take the matter into my hands and discover the truth on my own.It is late afternoon as I sauntered to the living room joining Mason and the others as they talked and watched movies. They were crowded on the sofa, Nelson sitting beside Mason as he chewed popcorn and Marcy beside him yelling in his ears."Hey, how is your garden been so far?"Mason asks as he looked my way scooting beside his twin to make space for me. He in the way spank Ne
MASON'S POVCharlotte..Charlotte..Charlotte..I love this girl very much. I don't know if I can breath without her. She has become my life, my breath, my everything. I am happy she agreed to be my girlfriend. She does not know how much she has lifted a whole lot of self-hate, self-loath on my being. When she had said she liked me, I had felt like reaching the skies. Letting everyone know that she is mine. I know this is minor but it is a step forward to our happiness, to our future. It's funny I am doing this, we should have been one from our very first meeting. If not for me, my stupid self.We were cuddling in the living room with nothing to do as it is a Sartuday."Mason what are you doing?" She asks looking at my hands. That were roaming on her chest. I really love cupping her soft flesh. The way her boobs pop up escaping my hands. They are soft and smooth. "Nothing," I faked ignorance. As I continued foddling feeling her movements awakening my junior brother. I could feel him
CHARLOTTE POVZzzzzZzzzzZzzI am flying up in space, feeling the breeze brushing against my skin. It feels like something is holding me back. I want to go far. When I am about to fight back, I start to fall. Slowly I fall on something soft. The thing I am lying on deepens and strong arms wrap around me. After that, I could not feel anything. It is morning when I start to wake up from my slumber. I look around to see unfamiliar things but familiar in some way. First the strong cologne. Followed by the deco that which boys of this era like to call hot or cool.I am in a guy's bedroom. I look at the bed I was lying on to see the other side with rolled-up blankets suspended at the side. My heart starts beating. What happened to me. Did I sleep with someone? No that doesn't make sense, I look at myself to check if I am fully dressed. And to my surprise, my top is bearly worn. Yesterday I spend my day with Marcy. Could it be Mason? Where is he now that guy almost gave me a heart attack.
CHARLOTTE POVIt is all shocking and worrisome to find out that the man I kept hanging out with, the man I spent my time kissing, the man I agreed to be his girlfriend is actually not a human being, but some kind of monster. How can I deal with this situation? Hear his side of the story, judge all of this on my own. It would have been better if he disclosed the truth on his own, or worse?Knowing myself I would be locking myself in my room. Admanant on not seeing him, throwing fits. Ignoring him or loudly calling him a monster. Maybe doing some horrible singing. Keeping out of his reach. Ignoring him and starving myself. Like now, I am locked inside 'his room', denying his constant knocking, only that I am doing my daily routines such as eating and being myself playing some games on my phone."Charlotte baby open the door!" He keeps on banging on the door constantly yelling these words.I am not ready to hear his excuses. Knowing him he will come and sweet talk me to believe what he
Whilst in my sleep I could feel the nightmares haunting me down when I tried to revert to another dream it got worse. I could vividly see two faces and a voice resonating, comforting me.Charlotte shush.That's my girl quiet.And then I feel someone ruffling my hair. Someone kissing my forehead.After that it switches to another dream."Look there is a child in the fire. Quick save it." I feel the smoke enter my body but I don't feel any part of my body. And like that everything goes black.Then it goes back seeing Evelyn giving me a grin as she pets her stomach. Mason howls beside her as the small picture looked like a family. I began to lose air as I felt suffocated. My body stiffened as my hearing got too faraway from anything happening from the world at that time.I began to cry again. As I kept on switching these dreams to one another.Charlotte! I heard a faint voice calling out my name.Charlotte! I followed the call as I slowly open my eyes to see Mason in the dim moonlight."
