Tearing Down His Walls

Chapter 3 - Run - POV Ana

“Okay. I’ll be here… AHHHHHH!!”

A giant pure black wolf came out of no where and jumped right on my Jeep Cherokee. The wolf was growling and snarling like it had rabies or something. I was absolutely petrified. I don’t even have my wolf yet to defend me. I won’t get her for another six days and even then, I still have to wait until the next full moon before I can shift.

The wolf jumped off my car and began circling it. It felt as if this wolf was hunting, and I was his prey. I could here him growling and snarling louder and louder. I began to get uncomfortable and unbuckled my seatbelt as slow as possible. I wanted to make sure that I could make a run for it if I needed to.

The wolf then started attacking my driver side door and I screamed again and scurried into the passenger seat. The next thing I know, this damn wolf ripped the driver door clean off and threw it to the side like it was a chew toy. I quickly grabbed the door handle to the passenger door and opened it. I jumped out of my car and took off running in a random direction. I heard the wolf howl and then his paws hitting the ground right behind me. I jumped into the trees belonging to the surrounding forest thinking my best shot at life would be in the forest. I could climb a tree or wedge myself between some large rocks. At this moment, I really regretted taking my mother’s advice on making a good first impression and wearing a dress and sandals. I could feel twigs hitting my legs and stones hitting my uncovered toes.

Finally, I see a climbable tree and make a run for it. I have to cross at ten foot clearing to get to it, so I took off with everything I had left. Halfway there the sound of thundering paws got louder than before and I knew the wolf was right behind me. I turned to see how close and just as I did, the wolf leaped at me. I screamed bloody murder waiting for the impact of my body hitting the ground and being crushed by the giant wolf after me.

Instead, I felt a large hand on the back of my head and another on my lower back. I could feel breathing on my neck and knew that who ever this was, was way to close for comfort. My eyes were closed due to terror, and I was too scared to open them.

“LA PAREJA!” A masculine voice said sternly right above me. I opened my eyes wide and saw a muscular man on top of me. I stuttered out the loss of words that I had. He then gripped the back of my head even tighter and smashed his lips on mine. I was in complete shock and my reaction was delayed. I began using my hands to push him away from me and off of me.

He tore his lips away from mine and looked down at me curiously.

“What is wrong? Am I not appealing to you?” He questioned.

“I… uh… wait, what?” I stammered.

“Don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about! Am I not appealing to you?” He exclaimed.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about! Get off of me!” I yelled.

He grabbed both of my wrist and held them above my head preventing me from continuing to push him off of me. He then smashed his lips again down onto mine and my eyes grew twice their size. What is it with this guy? What does he want from me?!

He then ripped the top of my dress open with his free hand and I gasped. In that moment he stuck his tong in my mouth and began exploring me. I didn’t know what to do. He began trying to wedge himself between my legs and I closed them together tighter. I then heard a deep growl from his chest and realization took over, he was going to do this whether I liked it or not.

What was this? Some sort of welcoming thing? Visitors HAD to mate with someone in this pack in order to be welcomed. What the hell? No wonder no one ever visits this place anymore. The wolves here are a bunch of nut cases! I did what I had to do. With all of my strength I pulled my knee up and kneed him square in the balls. He rolled off of me and I quickly stood and tried to make a run for it.

I wasn’t fast enough because he quickly grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me back towards him. He pushed me up against the tree that I was trying to get to originally and held me by my throat. It didn’t hurt, but I could definitely tell that he was doing it to show his dominance.

“What do you want from me?! Dejame!” I yelled out.

“Can you not sense me? What is wrong with you? He questioned.

“What is wrong with you?! You chased me across the pack and then tried to r**e me you lunatic! Estas loco!” I yelled out again.

“I can’t sense your wolf. What is wrong with your wolf?” He questioned in concern.

“I haven’t gotten her yet! I haven’t turned eighteen yet!” I responded trying to get out of his grasp. He quickly let go of me and backed away.

"Los siento amor. I didn’t know. When do you turn eighteen?” He asked. I readjusted myself off of the tree and grabbed both sides of the top of my dress and used my hands to hold them closed. I saw that he was watching me and I looked up at him and saw guilt in his eyes.

“In six days. My birthday is in six days. I came here to celebrate it with my best friend, but if I’m not welcome here, I’ll just leave.” I answered him. He growled in response.

“You’re not going anywhere. You are welcome here forever.” He responded letting out a breath.

At that I heard a twig snap and looked towards the sound.

“Ana? ANA? Are you okay? What happened?” Lexi’s voice rang in the distance.

“Estoy por aqui Lexi!” I shouted so she could hear me. I could hear her footsteps quicken and get closer to us. Then she came to the same clearing we were in and looked at me and gasped.

“Ana! Qué te ha pasado? What happened?” She exclaimed running over to me. The man stepped in front of me to blocked Lexi for reaching me.

“Alpha! What are you doing? That’s my best friend! I asked you if she could come for a visit, you approved this!” Lexi exclaimed trying to reach around him to grab me as I reached out for her. He growled at her in response and she put her hands up in defeat.

Alpha, really? This lunatic is the Alpha. Again, I see why no one ever visits this pack anymore. The Alpha is the nut case and his pack probably follows his ways. I have got to get out of here before someone else thinks that I’m just a willing participant here. Goddess, Lexi should have told me that this place was like this before inviting me here. I would have never come if she had.

“She’s mine Lexi.” He answered her. She looked up at him with shock in her eyes. She was just as stunned as I was. She looked at me and then back at him and a huge smile spread across her face.

“En serio? Really?” She asked with a sparkle in her eyes. He only nodded at her. What is going on? Have they brainwashed my best friend?

“That’s so exciting! When will the…” Lexi started but he cut her off before she could finish.

“After she turns eighteen Lexi.” He stated. Lexi shook her head and realization took over her face.

“Oh my goddess. I didn’t even realize. I’m so sorry alpha!” She exclaimed.

“It would have been nice to know that you were inviting a minor to our pack prior to her arrival, but she’s here and that’s all that matters now.” He responded facing me and looking deep into my eyes. His eye were captivating. It was so hard to look away from them but I did. I turned my head away and heard him growl ever so quietly. I step to the side to avoid his gaze and he growls a little louder. I look at him and he circles behind me and grabs me by my waist and pulls me into him. I turn and pull out of his grasp and look him square in the eyes.

“I am not going to sleep with you.” I said sternly. The alpha only chuckled at me as if I was a child trying to test his patients. “I’m serious. I’m not staying here. The second we get back to your packhouse, I’m leaving and going back home.” He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me into him and my chest hit his.

“You’re not going anywhere little wolf. You are going to stay here until your birthday.” He said quietly but sternly.

“And who the hell are you to tell me what I can and can’t do? If I want to leave, I will leave.” I said challenging him back. He must not know who I am. My father would have a field day in his pack along with all of my brothers.

“I am the Alpha of this pack. You are in my territory. My word is law little wolf.” He said through gritted teeth.

“And the laws from the council state that an Alpha family can not hold another alpha family as hostages.” I said in response. Thank goddess I actually listened when my mother preached on wolf laws.

“And what alpha family to you belong to little wolf?” He asked with a shocked expression on his face.

“My father is alpha Lorenzo Gutierrez. He would not take kindly to you holding me here against my will.” I retort full of confidence.

“I’m sure he would think otherwise once I speak with him. Go with Lexi. A room has been set up for you on the fifth floor in the pack house.” He stated and my jaw dropped. He’s seriously going to try and hold me here.

“The fifth floor Alpha?” Lexi asks in confusion.

“Yes. Ashley is already aware and is setting it up. If you need help finding it, Ashley should still be on the fifth floor.” He said and walked past me back to the packhouse. I don’t know what is going on, but what I do know is that the second I can find my phone, I’m calling my father to get me out of here.
