Crimson Haze

Angeliques' POV

I sit on the couch twiddling my fingers across a picture of my sister and I. Tears start to cover my sisters image “why did I do this to her, I should have gave him the opportunity to end it with her". I hear knocking at the front door, I wipe my eyes and rush to the door “Ann…” a tall tan man stands in the door his golden flaked brown eyes staring at me with sorrow “Blake" I jump into his arms. I immediately jump back out of them coming back to thoughts of my sister. He grabs my cheeks and presses his lips to mine and begins to ravaging my body with his strong hands.

I can’t help but fall into his kiss he bites my neck sending chills down my spine. he picks me up and heads towards the couch he loosens his grip after he lays me down. After his grip loosens I finally come to my senses or what senses I have left and push him away.

“Please listen to me” pressing my hands against his broad chest. “Have you heard from Annie" he softly caresses my hand “no my mate, when was the last time you heard from her.” I look down at the floor taking my hands away from his strong calloused hands that send electricity through my body “ the last time I saw her was when we were….” I blush at the thought of us together. “My love look at me" he gently puts his hands under my chin, tilting my face so my eyes met his “you know that we have no control over who the moon goddess chooses to be our fated mates.” Tears start to form in my eyes “How can you be so calm about this?... You loved her, you even asked her to marry you!” He takes a deep breath, breathing in my scent and wraps his large arms around me “ I didn’t know that you would be my fated love…. I don’t want to hurt your sister she’s a good person.... she's an amazing woman. I wish there was something we could say or do to explain to her about what happened but you know we can’t. She deserves someone that can give her a life without lies.” I breathe in his smell of sweet rain and earth “It’s just not fair.. not even the Alpha will tell us why we can’t tell her what we are… now I’m stuck with the fact that my sister thinks I’m some horrible monster.” I can hear my wolf Astraea whining, pacing back and forth at the thought of my best friend, my sister.

Please Angel don’t be hard on yourself Astraea says trying to comfort me. She will understand one day. I hope you’re right my conversation is interrupted by a passionate kiss.

I can’t fight him his soft lips and tight grip around my waist prevent me from wriggling. It was hard to not want him. I melt into him but thoughts of my sisters shocked face surface. I’m finally able to break free and push him back “we can’t do this yet it’s wrong, we don’t even know where Annie is what if she tries to hurt herself or worse.”

Blake goes to sit on the couch patting the dark blue cushion trying to coax me into moving closer to him but I knew better than to fall for that trick I get up and go to sit on the grey chair across from the couch smirking at him for trying to distract me again. He then gets on all four his eyes glowing gold. His golden gaze lets me know his wolf Jackson has taken over he crawls towards me on his hands and knees purring. When he reaches for me he gently caresses my knees I look away to hide my blushing face Astraea is trying to take over so she can “play” to but I’m able to put her in the back of my mind. I can feel his chest on me he growls in my ear beckoning a moan from my lips. Then I can feel Blake’s hand stroking mine. I smile at his calming touch “I’m sorry… I just can’t believe I’ve finally found my mate…. I just wish it was under different circumstances” I inform him. "You and I both do love" he stands and walks over to the fridge and grabs a bottle of water.

After letting a big sigh out and rubbing his face trying to keep his hurt from showing “I wish I didn’t hurt Annie… but I can’t help but do what our goddess seems fit.”

I can feel Blake and Jacksons' heart aching I got up to comfort him when I saw him seem to drift off into LA LA Land I look into his eyes and see them swirl gold and brown. I assume he’s trying to get Jackson under control. I give a small smirk at the thought I look back at his face and see tears forming I grab his shoulder “Are you ok love?” .. ”Blake?!”. He looks at me and grabs my hands and guides me to the couch. Taking a deep breath “I’m sorry…” wiping away tears “Janelle just contacted me she was with Annie earlier and…Annie… sh..she tried to take her own life.” I cannot begin to explain the pain I was feeling I couldn’t breath I couldn’t think. I tried to speak but my words were replaced by uncontrollable tears. “Angel she’s going to be okay they got her to the hospital in time. Janelle said the doctor mentioned rehab before she left.”

I still can’t control the tears I can hear Astraea crying and whining also We must go see her.. she may not want to see us but we have make this right this is our fault. I couldn’t agree with her more “Blake I have to make this right I need to see her, I need to make this right.”
