Blood Right by T. H.

Chapter 5

Our car pulls up at the manor, I exit the car and walk toward the warm lights of the foyer. “Where do you think you’re going?!” Mark shouts. He exits the car and walks around to block my path. The snow here is cold again, not like it was at the gathering and I began to shiver. I shoved past him, not saying a word. “You can’t walk away from this, from me!” He yells, but I keep walking, ignoring him. A flurry of snow bursts in front of me and Mark blocks my path, Damn teleportation! I cover myself with my arms, still shivering, the snow and wind blowing harder now than before. Mark grabs my arm and pulls close to my face, holding my chin so I can’t jerk away, “When you’re my Queen I’m going to make your life hell. You’re going to suck my c**k when I tell you to, you’re going to f**k me whenever I want and you’re going to sit still, and be quiet like a good little Queen should, love.” He smiles and licks the side of my face. I jerk my chin free from his hold and lunge forward so my forehead meets his nose, blood falling onto the perfect white snow, “f**k!” Mark yells, bending down to hold his face in his hands. Stammering to find his balance, he leans against a nearby pillar. I lean down by his ear and say “I’ll never be yours Mark, you’re f*****g pathetic. You want my title, my money, MY THRONE, my p***y, and MY FUTURE, but they will never be yours. I will never be YOURS.” I laughed to myself and I walked past him in his bloody snow mess. “Get. Back. Here. b***h!” He yelled, Standing back up, as blood runs down his face, and he walks toward me. “You will regret embarrassing me mate.” As his clenched fist meets my face, I hadn’t reacted quick enough, I hadn’t even tried. I was so cold and wasn’t thinking.. I fell to the ground when he hit me, writhing with pain. Laying in the snow, I wanted to cry, scream and.. kill him. I wanted to kill him. I felt that ancient anger rise up in me and I let it flow. Throwing my hands out as my nails grew into claws, my senses heightening, and teeth showing. I stand to my feet and ready myself for a fight. This time it doesn’t phase him, there is no fear on Mark’s face, only hate, he is faster than I am and teleports behind me, putting my arms in a lock, as I fight against his hold. “You’re. Mine.” He says in my ear from behind. “That’s where you’re wrong MATE”, Mark releases his hold and I fell forward into the snow. Cannon walking from his drivers car comes to help me up, never taking his eyes off Mark. “She’s not yours and she never will be. She’s mine, she’s my mate and if you ever touch her again I’ll kill you.” Mark and I both are stunned by Cannon’s words as he pulls me to my feet, wrapping his coat around me, he pulls me tightly to his side. Mark stares at us for a moment and let’s out a laugh, “did she bribe you to help her Cannon? To get her out of being with me? That’s so pathetic,” Cannon stopped and turned to him, “That’s Alpha Cannon to you, and no she didn’t. She has been mine since she was born, you never stood a chance. You will never lay a hand on her again, or I will end your miserable life.” Mark’s gaze deepened, anger flaring. He began slowly walking toward us, as Cannon let out a deep menacing growl, and moved toward Mark, shifting into the biggest wolf I have ever seen. His fur was a beautiful dark grey, shining in the moonlight, with a white tip at his tail, his eyes now a deeper, more beautiful green and he was standing in front of me, guarding me. Mark stoped walking and stared at us, not believing what he just saw. Lycans we’re never allowed in our lands, and we never hosted the gathering for all species. Mark wasn’t shocked by my half ass shifting anymore, but seeing Cannon shift left him awe struck. Shaking his head in disbelief he laughs to himself and says “awe look, the mutt got herself a puppy to play with.” It was Mark’s turn to shift, his fangs began to grow and his face to contort into a demon like figure, “you’re weak El, you always have been and now you need someone else to protect you” he hissed. “I don’t need anyone to protect me Mark, I can handle you by myself.” I replied. Tilting my head, I caught the scent of wolves on the wind and looked behind us to see 10 more large wolves coming to our side, not as large as Cannon, but just a beautiful. Flanking us on both sides, the wolves growled and bit at the air, urging Mark to stay away, or come closer and see what was in store for him. I wish he had come closer, I would have liked to see what the wolves had in mind, But instead he drew his fangs in, and in a puff of snow, he had vanished. Satisfied, Cannon shifted back into his human form, but he was completely naked. “Holy s**t”, Is all I could say. I had never seen someone shift and shift back like he had, and he was naked! By the blood, this man was beautiful as a wolf and a man, especially naked. It took everything I had not to look below his waist, covering my eyes with my hand, as I handed him his coat to cover himself. “Thank you,” he said, “anytime” I said still covering my eyes. “You can look now,” he said so I opened my eyes, he was wrapped in his coat, but I could still see what looked like a wolf tattoo on his thigh, the thought sent lightning bolts down my core. Placing his arm around me again we walked inside the manor and onto the elevator. “I’m sorry” I said as I selected my floor, “what the hell do you have to be sorry for?!” He said loudly. “For all the trouble I caused you in your own home!” I said. “Well that prick thought he was your mate, he needed to be corrected.” Corrected? Wait, who did this guy think he was? Yes, he saved me but I could have handled it. “What makes you so sure he’s not my mate?” I ask crossing my arms, “HE’S NOT.” He says turning to face me, “how do you know that?!” I ask as I step toward him. Cannon hit the stop button on the control panel, sending me flying to the floor as the elevator shuttered to a stop. He grabs my arm pulling me back up and pushes his body against mine, pinning me against the wall. “He’s NOT your mate because I am your mate! Do you not feel it between us?! Every time we touch, the sparks, the electricity? Does he make you feel that way? Has anyone ever made you feel like this?!” He puts his hands on the side of my face and presses his lips to mine, hard and unforgiving. His mouth opening to mine, tongues exploring the other, sending waves of heat thru my body and warmth pooling between my legs. He moves his hand to the small of my back and pulls me tighter to him, claiming my mouth with his. His coat opening around me, feeling his naked body against mine. I run my hand thru his hair and pull him harder to me, like I need him to consume me. He must like it rough, as his erection grows against my leg. By the blood, he’s HUGE. Gasping, I move my hips so I don’t feel his hard c**k against my warm wetness. He was right, this was something I’d never felt before, my soul pulling to his, my body needing his body, I was a soul on fire and he was what I needed to quench it. A sound comes from above breaking us from this trance, “hello elevator two, you’ve had a sudden stop. Is everything alright?” Cannon pulls his lips from mine, keeping his forehead leaning into my own, he answers, trying to catch his breath, “yes Jeffrey, this is Cannon, there was a stop but we are fine. Please continue the route to floor 5.” “Yes sir, proceeding to 5.” The voice says as I slump against the wall and slide down to the floor. I’ve kissed before but never felt anything like that. Like my soul pulling out of my chest, trying to get closer to his, Needing him like I need air. It’s overwhelming. The elevator dings and I stand and exit, Cannon right behind me. I turn to him and hold my hand out to his chest to stop him, “Where do you think you’re going?” He looks at me puzzled, “I’m going with you to your room, MATE” his words unwavering and I knew there was no arguing it, so we walked down the hall and into my room. Searching the wall, I found the light-switch and lit up the room, walking over the the bed I kick off my heels and let my long hair down from the now messy bun. I sat down on the bed to rub my sore feet when I notice Cannon staring at me again.. “why do you stare at me like that?” I ask, still rubbing my foot. “Because.. I have never seen something as beautiful as you before and I want to memorize every inch of you.” Not sure if I should be terrified or turned on at this point, I chuckle at him and say “are you going to stand there in that coat all night or go home and get some clothes?” He looks down, coat hanging wide open and fully exposed, but he doesn’t cover himself, fully aware of how good every inch of him looked. “No” he said, with a cocky grin. “I think I’ll take a shower,” then he dropped his coat leaving everything out for my viewing, and turned to walk into the bathroom. I sat on the bed in shock, relaying the nights events in my head. I went to a party, embarrassed my father, got in a fight, was rescued by wolves, found my mate and now he’s naked in my shower. My life has never been this interesting before, but if this man thought he was going to stay naked in my room all night, he was wrong. I grabbed my room key and walked out the door to Leo’s room, pounding on the door I hear “oh.. oh.. baby! Baby!” From the other side. By the blood.. he got ANOTHER ONE?! I pound on the door again and I hear Leo say “s**t! Don’t move baby” he answered the door, wrapped in a towel. “f**k, Beth, you have HORRIBLE timing!” I look over his shoulder, surprised to see them same girl from yesterday staring back at me. “Same girl two nights in a row, I’m impressed Leo.” He rolls his eyes “Beth, what do you want?!” He says, obviously irritated. “I need your shorts, and a shirt” I say. He looked confused but closed the door, I could hear him rummaging thru drawers. He opened the door back up and handed me a red pair of basketball shorts and a black shirt, “there all yours! Bye Beth!” And he slams the door. “Here comes daddy! And giggles come from the other side as I laugh and walk back to my room. Opening up my door I’m shocked to see Cannon laying on my bed naked, with one leg bent at the knee and the other straight out, reading one of my books. “Ahem.. “ I say as I clear my throat, “I brought you some clothes” and I toss them at him. He sits up looking at the clothes and says “where did you get these?” “They’re Leo’s” I say, “but tonight they’re yours. Won’t your parents be wondering why you haven’t made it back home yet?” I ask, trying to convince myself and him, that he should leave. “No” he says, “they’re use to me staying out late with women.” And he continues reading. I know I shouldn’t care but that comment made my blood boil. “ listen Cannon, I don’t know who you think you are but you are not going to use me, and throw me away like just another girl you’ve conquered.” A look of shock graced his face, he sat up, pulling on the shirt I gave him and stood to pull on the shorts, “listen, Beth, i was joking, but since you think you know me so well, tell me. What makes you think I’d want to f**k you?” The question caught me off guard and I didn’t know how to answer. I’m not sexy, not a skilled fighter, not skilled with my abilities, I mean, I can’t even teleport. Why would someone like him want to f**k me? I didn’t have an answer. “I.. I.. don’t know” I said, “I’m sorry, I don’t know you and I have no idea why someone like you would even want someone like me.” The look on his face was sadness and anger, but I ignored it. “I’m going to shower now” I said as I started to unbotton my shirt, “you should probably go” I say as I walk into the bathroom and shut the door. I turn on the shower and let the steam fill the room, after undressing I step into the shower and let the hot water run down my body. I put my forehead on the shower wall and let out a deep sigh as a tear runs down my face.. “stupid Beth, why did you have to do that?”
