Claire

Flying back to the house wasn't as nerve wracking as flying away. I was still nervous, but Bennett clung tightly to me and for some reason I felt safe in his arms. He helped me off of Rowan's back this time, rather than letting me fall and walked me into the house as Rowan shifted back. Bennett carried my things for me and set them down before walking into the kitchen. I sat quietly on the couch, not sure what to do and not wanting to piss either of them off. Rowan came back in and didn't pay me any attention, simply walked into the kitchen with Bennett. My eyes traversed the living room and looked towards a door that I realized was to the garage. The car keys were hanging on a hook right next to it and a thrill of excitement went through me. I wasn't sure when or how, but I knew that was my only chance at escape. I could never run away on foot, we were too far from civilization for me to make it and I knew they could track me down easier that way. My mind is in contemplation

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 13

    Claire I got up at some point in the night to use the bathroom, but I had otherwise stayed wrapped in my blanket, staring out into the forest. The hopelessness of my situation had consumed me and I didn't think there was a way out of the darkness. I wasn't sure I wanted one. I know Bennett had tried to talk to me, but I couldn't focus on anything he said, staring blankly at him, not really seeing him. I had smelled Rowan in the room, but I didn't think he had spoken to me. I watched the sun travel across the sky. They had pretty much left me alone for the morning and into early afternoon. It was awhile after they had tried to get me to eat lunch that I heard the door open. A man I didn't know sat next to me on the couch and I looked up at him. "She's been like this since last night. Won't eat or drink, doesn't talk, doesn't even look at us." Bennett says obviously concerned as he paces in front of me by the window, his arms crossed against his chest as he watches me. The man check

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 12

    ClaireHuman The word has a sobering effect on me. A reminder that I would never be more than a plaything to them. Especially to Rowan. The thought absorbs any lust that was left in my body, making me instantly regret what I had just done. I avert my eyes from Rowan and he senses the change in atmosphere, pulling back from me to eye me with confusion. I take advantage of the extra space, using it to duck under his arm and scurry from the shower. I hear him let out a frustrated huff as the shower door shuts behind me. He doesn't say anything and I don't give him the chance. I grab a towel and wrap my body quickly before moving into the bedroom. I dress quickly in Bennett's clothes, not wanting to be there when Rowan came out. I grabbed a large blanket from the closet and wrapped it around me like a coccoon, trying to protect myself from the depression burrowing itself into my mind and soul. I leave the room, closing the door quietly behind me. I could hear Bennett in the kitchen, pot

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 11

    Claire I stood under the warm water, letting it soothe my tired, tense muscles. Only for them to tense again when I heard the bathroom door open. I could tell it was Rowan from his scent, and my heart rate kicked up as I watched him open the shower door with wide eyes. He stepped in beside me, naked and too warm as he always is. I moved into the corner and he eyed me curiously as he stepped under the spray. The steam made his scent billow towards me, so much stronger than it usually is. I felt a fog descend over me, my body loosen from the smell. He must have noticed, since he gave me a sly smile as he lathered soap onto his toned body. My eyes trailed his firm chest, chiseled abs, smattering of dark hair down to his straining cock. When I looked back up at his face, his eyes were taking me in much the same. I swallowed hard as saliva filled my mouth at the view of his cock. I wondered fleetingly how it would taste. I pushed the thought away, trying to remember that they were monste

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 10

    Bennett Hearing her say that cut me deeper than anything else she could have said. Especially since she was fucking right. I hadn't meant to scare her, to hurt her. I just wasn't used to pulling in my strength or my feelings for that matter. Logically, I know she's human. The bond isn't instant for her. It needs time to grow. It needs to be nurtured and respected. I had done a shitty job of that. Of course, most of my time was spent trying to keep Rowan from killing her. Then she tried to fucking leave me. The feeling when we woke up to her gone. The anger, betrayal, but most of all the fear that something could have happened to her. It makes my heart rate kick up even now. Rowan told me to only leave her down there for a few days but I'm still so fucking pissed. He's not. He expected her to try to leave at least once. I knew he had no intentions to kill her. He knows I'd never forgive him if he did, but that doesn't mean I can't let the threat linger. Let her think about what she

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 9

    Claire I watched Bennett walk away and then was plunged into total darkness. I sighed heavily, my body sore from my mistreatment and tired from my escape attempt. With the adrenaline gone, my limbs felt heavy and tired. I felt my way over to the cot and laid down on it, grateful to at least have the blanket and pillow. Sleeping down here was honestly better than sleeping between Rowan and Bennett. At least I wouldn't sweat the whole time. It didn't take long for me to fall into a fitful sleep. There was nothing comfortable or restful about it. What seemed like not long after I was left alone, the light flicked on and my eyes narrowed against the intrusion. I heard the door swing open and heavy footsteps coming towards me. I peeked my eyes open and found Bennett, walking down the hallway with a tray. He slipped it into the cell through a small hole and turned to walk away, not saying anything. I heard the door close again and stood. The tray held some eggs, bread and a glass of water

  • My Cruel Mates   Chapter 8

    Claire Luckily the car I stole is almost full of gas. I was grateful for that. I didn't have much money saved in my apartment and I wanted to get as far away from my mates as I could before having to stop. Hopefully I would have enough money to live on until I could find a new job and earn some more. I wasn't sure how far I would need to go before they wouldn't be able to find me. A small part of me was hopeful they wouldn't really try. Maybe Rowan could convince Bennett that they were better off without me. That I'm not worth the effort. A girl can dream. My eyes kept flitting to the rear view mirror, watching for any sign of life from the house. No lights turned on and there was no movement that I could see. No growls or roars either, which seemed like a good sign. I allowed myself a breath of relief and small smile as I cruised down the dark highway. I turned the lights on brighter when the house when no longer in view and even flipped on the radio. I hummed along to the familia
