Gideon

Chapter 1 'True Mate'

  It was 2:00am and Jane Adan was trying to stay warm and comfortable, but it was difficult. Earlier that day Carl Alpha of the Cross Pack beat her and made her sit under a cold shower for not allowing him to mark her. He kept insisting he was her Mate. She knew he was wrong; he was just a greedy nasty man who could not find his life partner, so he took me to fill that space.

"Ugh, what I would do for a hot shower and clean clothing." I said out loud as I was trying to get comfortable. 

Tomorrow was going to be one of the worst days, I must stand by Carl like I want to be there so all the other Alpha's are impressed. If I do not do that, I will get locked inside my little hovel with cold water running on me. What is worse? Water or Carl's grip on my waist all day… Jane finally drifted off to sleep.

"Wake up women I want my food!" he said while slamming his fist on the door so hard it was shacking.

"Coming Carl." I said even though all I wanted was to sleep. I walked out of the hovel he called my room and straight down the hallway to the kitchen. I grabbed some eggs and bacon throw those in a pan and then popped some sliced bread into the toaster while I started his coffee pot. Soon I was finished cooking, I put everything out on the table.

"Carl, your food and coffee are ready for you." I said as I was walking towards the washroom for a shower.

"Only cold water. Do not use any of my hot water I need to get ready for tonight you understand me?" He yelled after me

"Yes." I replied.

Hopefully, Carl will get distracted enough so I can slip away for some time alone. What she would give to have moment.

"Here I want you to wear this." He said as he threw a silky red dress towards me "I want all the other Alpha's to see the mate I have."

"I am not your mate Carl." I said picking the dress up

He grabbed my hair and yanked my head back so I was looking up into his face, he was so close I could smell the whiskey on his breath, and it made me sick to my stomach.

"You are mine. I will mark you tonight weather you like it or not. Do you understand me?" he spit out

I did not reply I just stood there until he released my hair.

"Go get dressed. I want you to look perfect." He said as he threw me down and walked away.

I gathered the dress up and made my way to the washroom. I curled my hair and pinned it up, some of the curls where cascading down around my face. I put some make up on, nothing heavy just some mascara, eyeliner and blush. After I was finished there, I put on a pair of white lace underwear and a matching strapless push up bra. I slipped the dress over and zipped it up, than I slid my feet into a pair of sparkly red high heels. I was as ready as I could be. 

"Let's go women, I do not want to be late going to my own gathering!" Carl yelled from the hallway.

"Coming." I took a deep breath and opened the door.

"You should have tried harder. You look okay." he said shaking his head.

Great we are already off to bad start. This is going to be a long night. We walked down the stairs to see everyone talking and enjoying themselves. Carl grabbed my arm roughly and led me to a circle of other men, he let go of me to shake their hands. Once he finished, he wrapped his arm tightly around my waist. I tried to wiggle away, I needed some space from him and his nasty breath. Out of nowhere I was laying on the ground and then a sharp pain hit my stomach.

A booming voice said, "Don't touch my mate!" Oh, lovely another man thinking he has claim on me.

"Ha! Your mate? I have already claimed her as my mine stupid boy." Carl retorted yanking his hand from the man’s grasp.

He walked over to me and got on his knees and moved my hair out of the way to check and see if he could see if Carl's mark were there and not surprisingly there was no mark.

"I don't see your mark; she is not yours." the mystery man said with a smile on his face. He was so handsome and something about his touch made my stomach fill with butterflies. I felt safe with him so I wrapped my arms around his waist hoping he would save me from Carl.

"You better let him go Jane, I will hurt you. You know I will." Carl said with anger growing in his eyes "I swear I will rip you apart for coming between me and what's mine boy."

"I AM NOT YOURS!" I yelled from behind the exceptionally large handsome man.

"You heard her man; she doesn’t want you. I will be leaving now, and my Mate will be going with me. Anyone who stops me will have to challenge me." He said growling.

Before I knew it, he had me in his arms cradled to his chest. By the moon goddess he smelt amazing, and he felt amazing, something was happening down there, and I had no idea what it was.

Soon we were outside heading towards his car. The driver opened it and he placed me as he slid in next to me shutting the door behind us. I looked out of the window to see Carl running down the stairs watching us drive away with anger radiating off him. Thank god I was being taken away from that man. But now I was with this man who I knew nothing about other than he was handsome and sexy as hell.

"Who are you?" I asked with anger in my eyes.

"Gideon Black, and your Jane, my Mate." he replied as he scooted closer to me.

"I am no one’s; I will never be your mate." I snapped while I tried to move away from him.

Out of nowhere he grabbed me and lifted me on to his lap holding me in place tightly.

"You are mine." he growled "Do you understand me?"

I wanted to push him away and move, but I could not my whole body wanted to feel his burning touch. I did not reply, instead I just licked my lips and moved to kiss him. I did not know what I was doing. I had no control over my movements, but when I contacted his lips it started a frenzy. His grip moved from my hips to my thigh and tightened and the back of my head. He deepened the kiss using his tongue to cox my mouth open so he could slip inside my mouth. Oh my god he tasted amazing!

I grabbed his face and started rocking my hips back and forth until his member flexed on my sensitive bud through our clothing making me let out a small moan. It felt so good and I wanted more.

He growled and smiled, pulling away he said "I am going to make you beg for it, you will scream my name when I am finished with you. Do you hear me?"

"Yes" I said breathless. I wanted it, I wanted him inside of me now.

He turned and laid me, so my back was laying on the leather seat. He moved my dress up and his eyes went black as soon as he saw my white lace underwear, he licked his lips and moved them to one side so he could slid his finger down the length of my wet suit. He growled while inserting his fingers into my slick entrance, he looked at me as he slowly moved them back and forth. I arched and moaned, "Please Gideon." I begged

He was about to kiss my neck up the driver stopped the car to let us out. Gideon quickly removed his hand sat me up and fixed my dress.

"Don’t worry, I am not done with you yet." he said with a smile

The door opened and we got out, Gideon grabbed my hand and led me into his home, straight up the stairs and into a large bedroom. He shut the door behind him switching the lock over. He turned and looked at me with lust filled eyes.

Stocking over to me I could not help but backing up, I ended up flat against a wall. Gideon pressed his body against me, grabbed the back of my hair and gently angling my head so I was looking up.

"I am going to take you and make you mine do you understand?" He asked

I could not form any words, so I just nodded yes. "And then I am going to mark you." he growled "No other man will be able to claim you, you will be mine do you understand?"

This time I was able to form words, I tried pushing him away, but he was much bigger and a lot stronger than me. "I will not be claimed by a brut I know nothing about. Do you understand me?"  I said with a stern tone.

At that moment, his eyes went from lust, to something else. The beautiful blue was replaced by pitch black and anger. Then a sadistic smile appeared across his face, and he shook his head. "You'll regret saying that Jane."

"I am not afraid of you Gideon; Carl has done much worse." I said with anger with a small hint of pain

His face went rigid "What did he do you?"

"He would.…" I trailed off ashamed of what happened. I knew it was wrong to feel this way, but It did not help it change.

Gideon moved from the wall carrying me to the sofa in front of a large fireplace. He put a blanket over me than turned to start a fire. He walked over to an intercom on the wall pushed the button said something and then walked back over to me. He stood in front of me with an emotion I could not quite put my finger on.

"I asked from some food and drink to be brought up. We will sit here eat, talk about this and then take a warm bath. Then you will receive your punishment. Understand?" he said with a low stern tone.

Punishment? I went into a panic, tears welling in my eyes and I started shaking. What did I do?  I did not reply, I picked at the blanket and kept my eyes low. There was a knock at the door, he went got the tray and set it on the table in front of us. He then sat down, pour us a drink handed it to me and sat back biting into an apple.

"Now, tell me what he did Jane." he said calmly I knew it was only a matter of time, his temper would be back.

"He made me sit under cold water, and he would hit me." I said with my eyes still fixed on the blanket.

"Did he ever touch you?" this time his eyes started shifting black.

"Not sexually. No one has." I replied

"Good." he was a little more relaxed. "You need to eat."

I took a small piece of cheese and popped it into my mouth, it was delicious, and I was hunger than I thought. 

"Do you like it?" he asked

"Yes, thank you." I said

"Look at me Jane." he said with a low growl

I looked up and could not hold my tears back and more, I started shaking and I was terrified. What was he going to do to me?
