Chapter 15-“DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH ME”
Tristan
I took the nearest blanket and covered Mia, I opened the door and took Lilly in my arms, “Baby what happened?”
Lilly fell asleep as soon as she was in my arms, I put her on the couch across the bed.
I looked at Mia, guilt and shame running through me, Never in my entire life I had forced a woman against her will, and I hurt my own mate. “How could I be such a beast to my own mate?”
Xavier was so angry with me, he badly wanted to be let out, so I took an early morning run in the woods, hoping Mia will be awake by the time I return.
Mia
As I tried to move, the sharp pain between my legs, brought me to my senses. Every movement of my body was extremely painful.
I seemed very early in the morning, the sun had not risen yet.
As I did not find Tristan in the room, I gathered the courage to get out of bed; covering myself with the blanket.
I took me so long to get out of my bed and manage to stand up; the sharp pain between my legs and spasm of my muscles doesn’t let me walk. I give up and fall on the floor, unable to move and the pain; I only start crying.
Why did it have to happen to me? Why Why Why?
All I wanted was my mates love…..
Sobbing loudly on the ground, trembling with aches and pain
That is when I hear Aria’s voice in my “Don’t cry Mia, we need to be strong, You have to be strong”.
I am sorry Mia, I was so lost in the excitement of finding a mate and getting married to him; I did not understand the situation you were going through.
I am sorry, I know we could have stopped him from taking advantage of us last night, and left as if we f*****g don’t matter.
“You have me, Mia, you will always have me and I am not going to let anyone harm Us. Mate or not; Alpha or not I don’t care; I promise” Aria says consoling me.
I slowly manage to get up and sit on the bed, thinking I can’t live my life like this, what are my options; can’t I just run away from him. I don’t deserve to be treated like this.
Suddenly Tristan walks in the room wearing only his boxers and says “You can’t run away from me Mia; I won’t let you”
Aria says “He can hear our thoughts from our mate bond, I still can’t block him.”
Tristan walks closer and says “I did not know you were a virgin, I presumed you had s*x earlier with your lover boy”
Aria says in my head “That is still no reason”
Tristan adds “I am surprised by the fact though; the way he was following you around, it looked as though you both had very intimate relationship.”
I couldn’t believe, instead of apologising for his behaviour last night, he is dragging Richard into it.
He comes closer laying his hands on my shoulder. Something inside me snaps away. I scream
“DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH ME” and push him away with all my might “I see him flying across the room and hitting the wall with a thud and fall down.”
As the loud crying voice of little Lilly fills the room, I realise she had been here all the while
I feel the entire energy drained out of me, getting giddy I fall on the floor letting darkness take over me.
Tristan
Tristan gains his composure and stands up, confused how did Mia manage to do that; he saw some of his maid and other pack member rushing towards the room, listening to the loud thud and Lilly crying.
Tristan walks towards the door, closes the door saying that they are alright. I quickly pick up Lilly; telling her everything is alright.
The little soul must have been frightened to see her dad crashing across the wall.
As Lilly gets quite, I message David by mind link, “Be here as soon as possible and to get Suzan along with him. Oh yes, get the pack doctor, along with you”
As I take Mia in arms and place her on the bed “None of them, None of them could do that to me, in any battle; How did she do it ? ”
Xavier tells in my head “She is much stronger than what we had thought Tristan” I am impressed. Listening to him a smile runs on my face
As I hear a knock on the door, I realise the pack doctor was here with David and Suzan.
I take Lilly out of the room, “Please Suzan can you attend to Mia, with the Doctor. Her clothes are in the guest room.”
I was standing waiting at the door, for the doctor to get out of the room and tell me that she is alright.
The door opens, The doctor says “Alpha, she needs to shift”.
“She will heal sooner once she shifts.” I thanked the doctor as he left.
She will be in pain, until she shifts for the first time. Shifting for the first time is usually very painful process.
That is when I realise that it was Mia’s birthday yesterday. “Oh Moon Goddess”
The Party
A party is organised tonight, in continuation of the wedding celebrations and to welcome the new bride to the pack. All the guests who had arrived for the wedding will depart after this party.
The party was organised by Krystal, Tristan made sure that the party reflected the richness and power of the pack.
The theme of the party was white with pink; with the wonderful decorations made and the foods of all the cuisines in the menu.
Few members from the Elders council, almost all the famous Alpha and Luna, the pack members were present in the hall.
The entire crowd was waiting for the appearance of the Bride and Groom.
Tristan was ready and waiting for Mia, outside his room.
As he knocks on the door, Suzan walks out informing that “Alpha, Mia is ready, but she does not want to attend the party”
Anger starts rising inside me, does she want to insult me in front of all my guests “You can leave, I will get my wife” I say to Suzan.
As I entire the room, the pleasant scent of Mia, is filled in the entire room. All the anger vanishes and my heart starts racing as I look at how beautiful Mia looked.
Most of the scars that were of last night had already healed, but her eyes looked sad. She was not upset or angry; her eyes showed how much pain she has been through since last night.
I wanted to touch her, comfort her, love her. I couldn’t think of anything else; her scent was blocking the entire world out of my mind,
It feels as if nothing else matters, other than my mate.
I badly wanted to see her smile, see her happy.
I was pulled out of my train of thoughts when Mia said “I don’t want to attend the party”
I respond “You don’t have options here”
She snaps “Or else what, you will force yourself on me again” tears brimming in her eyes
I look into her eyes guilt running through me, all I could manage to say was “We had a deal, Mia, just stick to it”
She slowly starts walking away from me. “No, I don’t want to go anywhere with you”
“Do you want Tyler and his mate Victoria to go back home safely from this party? I smirk
She looks at me in disbelief, I release a chuckle “Yes that is what I thought too”
