Not sure how long I have been asleep, I am suddenly awakened by the door slamming open. Startled I jump up forgetting to cover myself with the sheet. Three men enter, one right after the other. They are all wearing black suits, with a white shirt and black ties. I can’t help but chuckle to myself thinking how they look like the men in black. They all go and sit quietly on the dirty couch across from the bed, and stare at me like I’m a fresh piece of meat. It is then I realize I am naked. Grabbing the sheet, I quickly wrap it around myself, they could have at least brought me some clothes.
The door opens for again and in walks Matthew. I should have known he was the reason I’m in this retched place. He is carrying 2 bags that I am hoping is food and clothes. Wait no, I refuse to take anything from him if this is how he chooses to treat me. Leaving me here alone, cold, hungry and naked in some strange creepy ass room without any idea of where I am. “I brought you some things” he says while trying to hand me the bags. Noticing I don’t move or even acknowledge that he is speaking to me, he sets the bags on the broken table in the corner. “James, Mark, and Stephan are here to protect you so you don’t get hurt, and I am here to show you that I care. I know this place isn’t much” he says as he gestures his hands around the room. “we will be moving to the pack house in a few days, just need to take care of a few things first.”
“If this is anyway you treat the woman you are supposed to marry, I want no part in it.” I shout back trying to fight back tears.
Turning to the three men with a smirk on his face “James, take the men and go find some food. Briella and I have a few things we need to talk about, privately”
Without saying anything the three men get up and walk out the room closing the door behind them. Matthew turns pulls a key from his pocket and locks the door. “You see, I own you now Briella. You will be my wife, and you will reject that mate of yours. I don’t care if he is an alpha, you are mine and only mine. I will kill him without a second thought if I so much as feel like you are planning to leave to be with him. Do I make myself clear?” He is now walking closer to me, gripping the sheet tighter around myself as if that will protect me from him. “Your wolf is in sleep state and will only waken once you have been marked. She will then feel the mate bond with whoever has marked you, true mate or not.”
“I will never let you mark me!” tears are now pouring down my face no matter how hard I try to fight them back.
“Briella, I do not want to hurt you. I want you to be happy, loved and cared for. And I will be the one to show that to you.” He is now standing directly in front of me, he reaches up to tuck a strand of hair behind my ear but I pull away. “You will learn to love me.” He says firmly as he wraps his arm around my wrist to stop me from walking away.
“I will never love you! Look how you have treated me so far! If you would have paid any attention you would have known even though I found my mate I was still going to marry you!” I say through gritted teeth. “I tried to reject him in the garden before the wedding, but he refused. I don’t know what you have planned but I wish you will just kill me now.”
Without saying anything else he rips the sheet from my body and tosses it across the room. I try to wrap my arms around myself to cover up but he stops me pulling my arms above my head and pinning me to the wall. “Please, don’t.” I whine as he uses his other hand to explore my body. I’m squirming and trying to free myself from his grasp, but he is too strong for me, I need Cali. I shut my eyes and send a prayer up to the moon goddess or whoever will hear it for me not to get r***d today. I have never even been with a man, he is going to taint me and make no one ever want me, not even my mate. That thought makes my blood boil, I lift my leg and knee him in the crotch as hard as I can. “YOU. ARE. NOT. MY. MATE!” I yell with every knee to the crotch or legs I give to him. He drops my arms and stumbles backwards but doesn’t fall. Oh no, what have I done? There is no way to escape, he is for sure going to kill me now.
He raises his hand smacking me with so much force I fall and smack my head on the end table by the bed. My head is spinning, I’m dizzy and can feel blood trickling down the side of my head. Before I can fully understand what is happening, he picks me up and throws me onto the bed. “I was going to be nice about this. But since you want to act like a b***h, I will take you like a bitch.” He says while grabbing my legs to flip me over onto my stomach and pulling me to the edge of the bed, exposing my ass to him. I’m now half on the bed, half off. The bed is digging into the lower part of my stomach right above my lady parts, ass high in the air, breast pressed deep into the mattress and knees dangling just above the floor.
