Sonia's Lycanthropic Legacy

Chapter 3

*Sonia*

I woke up in Theo's room, all cuts and bruises were wrapped up. I was in clean clothes and my hair didn't reek or feel sticky. I felt in pain though. Every movement made my body feel like it was on fire. I winced, slowly getting up. Who had done this? Whoever it was, I had to thank them.

Just then, some one walked in. It was a gorgeous man. He looked at me and smiled. Not the cruel one Theo does, but the sweet, caring one. I opened my mouth but nothing came out. I tried again but ended up with the same result. I started panicking. My eyes widened and I was startled when heard a jolly laugh from the door. The guy was laughing. At me. I glared at him as he wiped tears from his eyes.

"Hello, I'm Caven, Theo's beta. And chill, he injured your vocal cords, but youll be able to speak soon. Try clearing your throat. I saw you lying in blood so I decided to help. I'll show you around if you want." I mouthed a 'yes' and 'thanks. He nodded and came over to me to help me up. I cringed at the almost unbearable pain. Why would Theo do this to pain. Why would Theo do this to me? I cleared my throat and opened my mouth. A dying whale sound came out. My hand quickly flew to my mouth as Caven looked at me. I looked away and felt a blush creep up on my face. Should I try again? I tried again and this time I spoke.

"Thank you and did you know that you are really hot?" My eyes widened as I finished. He stared at me, but it was obvious he was trying not to smile. A blush appeared on his face as mine turned a deep red color.

"Sorry," I mumbled.

"It's okay, and thank you. You aren't too bad yourself. Trust me, if you weren't Theo's mate, I would claim you as mine." A growl came from the door. Theo's growl...

"Alpha." Caven immediately dropped his gaze, me doing the same. Theo was wearing a suit.

"Caven, leave! NOW!"

"Yes sir." He scurried away. Within moments, I felt Theo's presence in front of me.

"Look at me," he growled. I disobeyed.

"I said look. At. Me." He softly gripped my chin, forcing me to look at his features.

"Y-yes?" He just stared in my eyes. Many emotions flew in his eyes. Way too many for me to name. Just like that, they returned to their cold, hard self. Before I knew it, I was pinned to the nearest wall.

"Remember, you are mine and mine only. If I catch you with any other man, he'll die and you, Sonia. You'll deal with my wrath." His minty breath fanned my face. His face came close to mine then he crashed his lips on mine.

I, of course, stood still. One hand slid down and grabbed my butt, making me gasp. Him, taking the opportunity, forced his tongue in my mouth, painfully exploring every part of it. Tears poured out of my eyes. He pulled away and glared at me.

"STOP CRYING!" I whimpered. My head whipped to the side and my left cheek stung. He slapped me. Heat radiated off my face as a new bruise formed.

"Im sorry," I whispered, barely audible. He seemed surprised but masked it with a scowl.

"Get cooking the f*****g food, whore." Then walked out, leaving me to wonder if suicide would help my life.

*Sonia*

I felt overwhelmed from the two options I had. Live my life the way it is or suicide. I had to talk to Caven.

He had been nice enough to let me in on his life and past. He had found his mate but she was from an enemy pack so Theo killed her. Caven was trustable, right?

I walked out of the kitchen towards Caven's room. I knocked twice then heard a muffled 'come in'. I walked in to see Caven shirtless and focused on his phone.

"Caven? Can I talk to you?" He looked up.

"Sure."

"-I have been thinking about ending my life. Please Caven help me!" My cheeks were stained by tears.

"I just can't take this anymore," I cried.

"I'm- I'm going insane." I let out a laugh while Caven just stared. His eyes showed a small amount of fear.

"Please help me.." I felt my head go heavy, my eyeleyelids close. Then I felt the cold, hard floor.

I woke up on the floor where I passed out. I felt exausted, like I was working for weeks without a break. I heard two male voices on the other side of the door. One was Theo's and the other was Caven.

"Alpha...I'm sorry..No, I didn't!"

That's all I heard. The door shot open and Theo stood there. His face emotionless.

"Sonia, is what I'm hearing true?

You want to die?" I didn't respond and he laughed.

"Baby girl, all you had to do was ask." My eyes widened and I opened my mouth but Theo already had his hand around my throat. He squeezed slightly while I clawed at my throat.

After he thought I had enough, he let go.

"That'll teach you. Death isn't an end, it's just a beginning." As he left, Caven walked in.

"Caven, how could you!I trusted you! Rot in hell, asshole!" I ran to the kitchen and started looking for something. I didn't know what untilI found it. A small pocket knife witha sharp blade. Perfect. I casually walked the bedroom and locked the door. I plopped down on the bed and looked at my clear wrist. Slowly, I ran the blade over my soft skin. Wincing, I watched the blood seep out. I did the one thingI expected least, I smiled at the cut which was way too close to my vein. From the loss of blood, my body lost consciousness. The last thing I saw was Theo yelling. Then black.

I sat in my office and tried to calm down. Anger rose in me. How dare anybody try to start a war against my pack? I took in deep breaths and thought about my mate, Sonia. The thought of her made me calm. Her smile, her eyes, her smell. Everything about her. I would say I'm in love, but what's the point in lying? I lost the capability to love. No one, not even Sonia, would be able to bring down the walls I wasted my life building.

I was brought back to reality when Caven broke through the door. He was out of breath and looked panicked.

"Theo, it's Sonia. Hurry!" He took off, me following him like a lost puppy. I asked multiple times what happened, but he just ignored me and he knew how much I hated that.

We stopped outside of his room and my pulse quickened. They didn't f**k each other, did they? I turned to Caven.

"Tell me what the f**k happened!! You-"

"THEO! Sonia passed out. She said she thought about suicide and I didn't know what to do."

"You are in so much trouble!"

"Alpha.."

"You should've tried to change her mind!"

"Im sorry..."

"You put her up to this!" His eyes widened.

"No, I didn't!"

I brushed past him and into the room.

I saw Sonia on the ground.

"Sonia, is what I'm hearing true? You want to die?" Silence. I laughed.

"Baby girl, all you had to do was ask." Before I knew it, my wolf took over and I was choking her. When Xander (my wolf) thought she had enough, he stopped.

"That'll teach you. Death isn't an end, it's just a beginning." I walked out and ran straight to my office. I threw the papers to ground. I wrecked everything and I was panting. I let out a frustrated yell. What the f**k did I do? I decided to a-apologize, so I walked to our room only to find it locked. I didn't waste any time and slammed my body against the door.

The door flew open to reveal my precious mate with a cut on her wrist near her vein. I felt something I hadn't felt in a long time, panic. I rushed to her side and screamed at her to wake, but her eyes closed anyway. I quickly got out my phone and fumbled with the pack doctor's number.

"Hello, yes this is the alpha speaking. I need a doctor, NOW!" I hung up and picked up Sonia bridal style. Gently putting her down, I set myself down next to her. The doctor came and asked me to leave.

"No, I refuse to leave my mate." "Please, she needs stitches because the cut is really deep."

"Okay, I'll stay and watch." He sighed but didn't reply.

After about half an hour, he said he was done. I kicked him out and shook Sonia. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open. They were filled with three things: fear, hatred, and anger. I swooped her up in my arms and hugged her tightly. She seemed shocked, but didn't return the favor which actually hurt.

"I thought I lost you," I mumbled in her hair.

"Since when do you care?" She snapped. I pulled away, surprised.

"Look, Im sorry, okay? I promise it won't happen again."

"Talk all you want. Your words fall on deaf ears." I was agitated.

"You know what? f**k it! I don't give two shits about you!" Her eyes teared up as I left. She deserved that.
