Chapter 6 Jess POV I didn't quite know what to expect when I entered the room they put up the girl in. I open the door and see a sad-looking girl on the bed. She looks confused, nervous, and lost but beautiful with piercing ice-blue eyes and long brown hair. She doesn't look very tall. I look at her and see she doesn't look like she's a pushover; that's good. She'll need that because I know how my brother is. He's possessive and protective to the point where he makes you go crazy. That could be fun watching him handle her; she looks to be determined and have her own opinions, which might be something I'll enjoy watching. He might think he's the Boss, the one in control, but I bet he won't be for long. She will melt the hard Alpha's heart. As I take a few steps into the room and make eye contact with her, I say. "Hi! My name is Jess. I have some supplies for you. Clothes and something to dress your wounds. Just tell me if you need anything else." Aimee: "Hi! I'm Aimee. Thank you! Could you maybe help me get some makeup to cover some bruises? And perhaps some painkillers." Jess: "Of course, I'll get you some painkillers and get my bag. I never leave my house without makeup. Can I help you with the wounds?" Aimee: "Thank you! I would appreciate it because I can't see the ones that ache the worst on my back, so it would be great if you could help me." Aimee POV As I got the reply I was hoping for, I was about to take off my top, and I thought I shouldn't trust these people. I just met Jess, but I feel safe with her and like we have known each other for a long time. With that, I take off my tight-fitting top. I would sit almost naked if it wasn't for my bra, and I still have my jeans on. As I turn my back towards her and turn my head to face her and say: "Please be honest about how I look on my back. I know it must be bad." After I turn my head again to face away from Jess. I heard a gasp, and it took a couple of seconds which felt like minutes, before she said anything when I was about to put on my top again because this made me feel very uncomfortable. Jess POV When I see the girl's back, I gasp in horror I would never have thought it would be this bad. Holy s**t, several deep and fresh would with lots of bruises, and then I see older wounds and bruises. It's her whole back and stretches over her sides to the front. You could easily think that she had been fighting an Alpha wolf that gave mercy by not killing her. The only difference would be no bite marks but still as bad. How can she even stand, walk and talk with ease? Not to mention all the old scars she has on her back. "I'm sorry but I never thought your back would look like this. It's bad, I'll help you clean the wounds and cuts. May I ask how you got these?" Aimee: "Umm, I would rather not say. Could you please help me with it." Jess: "Hey, Aimee, I see lots of old scars. I can tell this isn't the first time; maybe if you tell me, I could help." Aimee: "Sorry, Jess, but no one could help me, it's been going on for 15 years, give or take a couple of months, and no knight in shining armor has shown up, so please just patch me up and I'll be good to go as soon as the one in charge will let me leave." Jess: "My brother, Zach, is in charge, and sadly I have no sway over his decisions. I don't know when he'll let you go. You are here because of your brother; as you might have figured out, Zach has him. To tell you part of the truth, your brother did steal from our business, and my brother is pretty upset." Aimee: "Please try to talk to your brother, so he'll let me go. I haven't done anything to him; I need to go home to my family. Wait, you said he is upset, so is he mad at me? Please, I didn't do anything to him. I didn't help my brother; I swear, please, believe me, Jess." Jess: "Calm down; we know you didn't do anything. But still, I don't know when he'll let you go. Just calm down and wait. I'm sure he's going to come and talk to you, but he's busy with his company right now, he is the CEO of one of our family businesses, and I know he is also busy with your brother." Aimee: Please, when or if he comes to talk to me, would you come too? I don't wish to speak with your brother alone; I bet he's angry at me. Jess: "Aimee, I can't promise that. I'll come if he lets me; he makes the all the decisions. But you have nothing to fear; I know he would not hurt you. As you say, you didn't steal or do anything wrong, so he has no reason to hurt you." I wonder what has her so worried. Zach would never hurt her; he is like a puppy when it regards his princess until something or someone hurts her. Then we'll have a hell-beast to handle. There was nothing more to say; I took my bag and gave her Zach's t-shirt. I got it from his penthouse; it was huge for her, but as my bro said, his scent would calm her. When she got some other clothes on, it looked like the t-shirt was an oversized dress, and I had bought leggings and underwear for her. Jess: "you said you wanted makeup. Do you want to go to the bathroom to wash up and I can help you with makeup?" Aimee: "Thank you, I can manage on my own. Do you have a good foundation that can cover my bruises?" Jess: "I've got everything you need. Wait, do you mean that you have bruises on your face too? Because right now, I can't see any." Aimee: "Yes, I got hit badly yesterday. It was my punishment for how stupid I am. I really should know better, but I was in the way of the TV for a few seconds, maybe a minute. Please don't tell anyone. I don't want anyone to pity me!" Jess: "What the f**k!! What life do you have? s**t, I'm sorry I should have said that but f**k, Tell me what I can do for you other than makeup?" Aimee: "As I said, nothing; I'll leave this bad place in two weeks anyway; I just have to wait till then, and everything will be fine. Can you just help me and give me some makeup, please?" I watch as Aimee applies the makeup and covers up the horrible bruise across her cheek. I wonder why she has to put up with it for two more weeks. I can't help to think about Zach. What am I going to tell him? He will go ass-bat crazy, especially if he sees the bruises and wounds and not to speak of all the scars on her back. Wolves don't get easily scared, but that thought scares me. How and what will I tell him? Wow, 15 years of that s**t. She is wicked strong to live through that for so long. I wonder who did that to her? What are they? It can't be a human parent, or is it her stupid brother or maybe some of his friends? Possibly some other family member? I don't have answers, but I need them! So I have something to tell Zach; the Alpha wolf will be more furious than I have ever seen him. Jess: "Aimee, please tell me, who did that to you?" Aimee: "Well, I don't wish to tell you, but you've been so nice to me, so I'll tell you some. My mother mostly and sometimes one of her boyfriends drinks too much. Sadly she has a couple boyfriends. I don't like to talk about it, and I'm embarrassed. But the new wounds are from last night; that was all my mom." Jess: "s**t!! Aimee, this will be a weird question; okay, what are your mother and her boyfriends? Are they human?" Aimee: "Yes, that's not a question one usually asks, but I get it. No worries. My dad is a werewolf, and my mom is human, but her boyfriends are mostly rouge wolves, I believe. They really enjoy it when I'm in pain." Jess: "But where is your father? Why doesn't he protect you?" Aimee: "My father found his mate when I was 3 years old and moved to the other side of the country. That's when I found out he was a werewolf, and I have only spoken to him a couple of times over the phone since then, so he doesn't know how my life is. And the hell that started when he left us. Then it got worse after my oldest brother found his mate and moved to my father's pack. My father is a beta in that pack, and my big bro became Delta. There is quite a bit that I don't want to talk about or even think about, so don't ask me anymore, Please." Jess: "I'm sorry, Aimee. You have had a hard life, and I can't say I understand. So you have a werewolf father and one brother that is a werewolf. So your brother Ray is he a wolf?" Aimee: "Well, my father is a werewolf, and my oldest brother Dan but Ray and my sister Nancy are not. Well, I don't know about me because within 2 weeks it is my 18th birthday, but I hope I'm not, because I don't want a mate. I'm broken, and no one could ever love a broken girl." Jess: "Sweet Aimee, you are such a lovable and beautiful girl inside and out. Don't ever doubt that." Aimee: "Thanks, but this makes me uncomfortable to talk about. Let's talk about something else." Jess: "I'm sorry. Let me tell you a little about my family. I have a loving family, even if they are often stone-cold and stern, but to tell you the truth, I am a werewolf, and so is my whole family. My father is the current Alpha, but soon I don't know when my oldest brother Zach will take over as Alpha. Zach is 26 years old, I am 23, and I have a younger brother, Tony; he is the youngest and is 19 years old. Tony has just found his mate, Tara. Tara's big brother is Marc. Marc is Zach's beta and also my mate." Aimee looks so tired, and the topic may be too much for her; maybe I shouldn't have said all that, but I would like her to know my family because I know it will be hers soon too. After all, she will one day be my Luna, and I am sure Zach will win her over sooner than later. Jess: "I'm sorry, Aimee. I see this was too much for you. Please rest." As I leave, I see Aimee lying on the bed to rest; now, I have a big task talking to Zach about what I just found out. Zach will not be happy when learning about Aimee's miserable family. Abandoned, abused, and neglected, yet the most beautiful and loving girl. I don't understand how someone can do that to her.
