His little mate

Chapter 4

Marcus POV

After I turned around to give her the privacy, she wanted I could still hear everything. after she asked Daniel if he would touch her my heart skipped a beat, I had my suspicions because of the way she smelled, and Daniel had, on my request done some research on here about it, and he was ninety-nine per cent sure that she was raped, but her words just confirmed our suspicions, so he called the nurse back in to do the exam. When the nurse was doing the basics of the exam Daniel mind linked me. "We were right, she was raped, not just tortured and abused." He did not say anything else, but I was mad. If it were not for my mate, I would have trashed the room. I heard shuffling and the nurse explaining what she was doing, and I heard the monitor speeding up whenever Daniel would take over. after they were finished the nurse left, but I did not turn around because Daniel had not given me the sign that it was alright I could, and it was killing me. I just want to hold her and calm her down, whisper sweet things in her ear so she would know she is safe. It felt like hours before Daniel spoke. "Now that we examined you, I can tell you that the wolfsbane is out of your system and you are slowly starting to heal again, so this means that if you keep it easy, you can get out of the hospital today or tomorrow. But first I think you need a moment with our alpha here." I turned around looking at her smiling while Daniel left the room. We kept staring at each other, not saying a word, I could tell she was nervous and uncomfortable, but confused above all, like she did not know what these feelings were that she was feeling or the tingles we had when we touched. So, I spoke first. "Hello, it is nice to finally be able to talk to you when you are awake, I am really happy you are awake. My name is Marcus Black, what is yours?" I waited for her to speak, but she did not do that, she just kept staring at me not knowing what to say, or if it was safe to answer me. She has been through hell if she is even afraid to tell me her name. When I figured she was not going to answer me I just continued. "I am the alpha of this pack; my packs name is New Moon pack. I am 24 years old, and 6'7, I like to have run with Dexter. " after I said my packs name, she froze up and began to shake, I figured she had heard from my pack, we were the most powerful pack around. I wanted to calm her down because she was looking pale and like she was having a pannick attack. I reached for her hand so my presence would calm her down, but as soon as my hand touched hers, she began to whimper. I was shocked, I thought I had hurt her, but then I figured she was just more scared of me than I thought. "Hey, hey, I am not going to hurt you. I will give you my word as your alpha, that I will never hurt you." She seemed to calm down a little after my words, and I began to make circles with my thumb on her hand, with this she calmed down a little more. "Do you also feel this pull between us?" I asked. She hesitantly nodded her head, this made me incredibly happy. "Do you know what this means?" I asked her. This time she answered me with her beautiful voice. "I-I d-do no-not kk-know, b-but my w-wolf k-keeps s-s-say-ing m-mate, a-are y-you my ma-mate?" she answered me, I was so happy that she answered me that I forgot that I had to answer her back, and she just kept staring at me with this big blue-greenish eyes, they were beautiful, just like all of her. I quickly answered, "Yes I am your mate, we have been waiting for you, for a very, very long time, and I am very happy that you are finally here, with me. "A-are y-y-you n-no-t di-dis-gu-st-sted b-by m-me?" This question shocked me why I would be disgusted by her she is the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. "Why would I be disgusted by you, you’re the most beautiful person I have ever seen, you are perfect." She seemed shocked by my statement, not knowing what to say. She just looked down with this red tint on her cheeks, I found it adorable, she was adorable. "Can you please tell me your name?" I asked again because I wanted to know. "W-what d-do y-you w-w-want to ca-all m-e?" She asked me, and I was confused by what she meant by that because I just wanted to know her name, that I had no doubt would be as beautiful as her. "What do you mean?" I asked. "L-like slu-t, hoe, bi-tch, thi-thing, an-ani-mal, pl-play-thi-thing, to-y or may-be a-a n-num-numb-er." She answered while looking down and I was in pure shock, who would call someone those things, no one deserves to be talked to like that. I calmed myself down before answering. "How about your real name, the one your parents gave you? The very first you had." I was pissed, but I wanted to stay calm for her, I did not want to scare her even more. "Ann-a, Anna," she whispered to me, I was very happy. Anna, it suited her perfectly. I began smiling. "Well Anna, would you like to tell me a little more about yourself?" I asked. I waited while she thought if she would like to tell me something more. "Uhm... I-I am 5'2 and I-I th-think I am-m a-arou-around 19 ye-years o-old. I-I d-do no-not kno-know w-whi-which pa-pack I a-m fr-from, a-and m-y wo-wol-fs n-name i-i-is Hope." This is all she said, I was confused when she said that she thought she was around 19, but I quickly forgot it when she told me she did not know to which pack she had belonged because that is weird. "Who was your alpha in your former pack?" I asked. As soon as I finished my question she began to pannick again. "Sshh, sorry, hey look at me calm down, deep breaths, you do not have to tell me, I can see that it is making you feel uncomfortable. How about we go back to talking about us being mates? I asked.

Anna's POV

After he calmed me down I answered his questions, which I was nervous about because I did not know what he was going to think about it. I did not know anything for sure about myself. He also seemed to get nervous about my name, I did not understand why he wanted my real name, why did he not want to call me by one of the other names I wondered. Then he wanted to go back to talking about mates. I did not know what a mate was, no one ever explained it to me. "W-what is a ma-te? I asked him. He looked at me in pure shock, like how can someone does not know what a mate is. "A mate, a mate is a person, or wolf, which has been chosen to be the soul mate to someone else. So, the Moon Goddess has chosen you to be my soul mate and me to be yours. The pull you feel towards me is the mate bond pulling us close to each other, and the tingles you feel when we touch is the mate bound telling us we belong together. And through the way we smell to each other, we can also identify each other, and by looking in each other eyes we know for sure. It is like love at first sight; I would never hurt you. I love you too much for it already." This was his answer to me. I was shocked, was all these things he was feeling for me and me towards him something a Goddess made us feel, I was confused. "He is telling the truth, Anna, I know it. I know he is our mate and that what he is telling is the truth. I can feel it." Hope said to. "But I am not ready to be owned again, I do not want to be owned at all. What if he is just like Max and the others of that wicked pack?" "He does not trust me, and we do not have to jump right in, he knows that we are not ready for that. He will go at our pace; trust me you just must tell him you will give him a chance. I just feel like he is not telling us something that we need to know. But I am sure he will tell us, I think that he does not think we are ready for it yet, so if he respects our wishes, we will respect his." That is what she said, we had been talking for a while because Marcus was getting nervous, I could feel it somehow.

"W-we will gi-give y-you a-a ch-chance, but a-a-t ou-our pa-pace p-please," I told him. He was happy to hear that because he let go of my hand and started to cheer and jump out of happiness. It made me giggle, as soon as he heard it, he stopped and looked at me in awe. I looked down, feeling my cheeks redden, I was not allowed to make a sound that indicated that I was happy. He gently grabbed my chin to make me look at him this made me nervous I was afraid he would hit me, but I could not look away. "You have the most beautiful smile and most adorable giggle, do not be ashamed of it." He told me; I just nodded my head. after that, we just starred at each other. Until I began to feel tired, I did not want him to notice it, but he did. "How about I call Daniel back so he can check you over one more time and give you your medicine so you can go to sleep. and if you feel better in the morning, I will move you to the packhouse so I can keep you close and safe to me all the time." He told me this, but I was confused, who was Daniel, and why would I let a random man touch me or check me out?!?! He must have seen my confused face because he began to chuckle in himself. "Daniel is the doctor that helped you, he and I have been friends for a long time, I trust him with my life, so also with yours." I made an Oh sound to him and nodded my head that I understood and that it was okay. I was wondering where he wanted me in the packhouse, I was happy to have anything, I did not want anything special, I hope he does not take that the wrong way. After some time, the doctor, Daniel, came in. He checked me over while telling me what he was doing, I was still a little nervous about him touching me, but somehow, with Marcus holding my hand it was bearable. He took a needle out, this scared me a lot, I shrieked and moved as far away as possible from everybody, needles mean pain that I did something wrong and I did not do anything wrong. I began to hyperventilate, and the doctor put down the needle immediately. "Easy, easy I am not going to hurt you. The syringe is empty, I wanted to take some blood to see if there was any wolfsbane, silver or any other poison left in your body. I have another syringe, but I will put that in your IV bag you will not feel that that is against infections. I also have some pills for you, I promise I am not doing it to hurt you, just to make sure you are alright." I was still shaking, but I handed him the arm he was going to put the syringe in, I was scared to the dead that I was misplacing my trust and closed my eyes. I felled the needle getting in my skin, but I did not do anything. He was done fast and told me I could open my eyes. I was happy. He gave me my pills took another syringe and emptied it into my IV bag. After he had given me everything, I started to feel sleepy. I felt Marcus gently putting me down, and I heard him saying good night, but before I could do anything I was out.

Marcus POV

After Daniel gave her everything, she fell asleep. I decided to stay one more night with her and move to the packhouse tomorrow with her. I will put her in my room so I know she is safe, I do not care if I must sleep on the sofa, she will take the bed and sleep. Cough, cough. I looked up; Daniel was staring at me. "She is looking better, but she needs a lot of time to heal properly. And a lot of food, I will make a list of vitamins she needs to have, and we will see each other once a week until I am sure she is completely healthy, which can take a while," he said and I was silent. "Thank you so much, Daniel, I do not know what I would have done without you the past three weeks. I will make sure she takes all her vitamins and eats healthy and gain some weight so she will be healthy in no time." I promised him. He just nodded and smiled at me. He padded my shoulder and left me alone, with my little mate.
