Unchain My Heart

Chapter 6

GENEVIEVE

-Suicidal people... Are just Angels who want to go home-

I talked to my unborn baby as usual. It always felt good to talk to him/her. I didn't know the s*x yet. I wanted it to be a surprise. I was thinking of leaving when one of the old women who used to watch me every day came there and sat beside me. She was a nice lady though I didn't know anything about her she always talked to me.

"So when is the due?" she asked smiling cheekily.

"Next month," I told her.

"Ohhhh... Do you know if it is a boy or girl?" she asked again and I shook my head sheepishly.

"Actually I wanted it to be a surprise," I told her.

Suddenly a deep voice interrupted us from behind which sent shivers down my spine.

"It's a boy."

I was frozen at the moment. I couldn't move. It felt like time stopped.

How could it happen? I knew I wasn't wrong. It was him. It was Mason. But why? And how did he find me? No... It's not happening. I don't want to go through all the pain again. I have lost other half of me already; I wasn't willing to lose more.

"Well how do you know, handsome?" that woman asked turning back to him.

There was no way I was going to face him again. All the hurt, all the pain came back. I whimpered a little.

"Because it's my baby and I Know It," he replied in his deep voice again.

That was enough for me. It was too much to handle. I stood up in the next few seconds and started walking away from them without glancing at him. I knew he was still the same. He would pretend to care and then just throw me away as he did before.

He grabbed my wrist which sent those same shivers as it used to be.

"Don't run, Genevieve, don't," he growled which made me whimper.

"Just let me go, please," I said through my tears.

"No. We need to talk. We need to talk about us, about our baby."

"Just stop. I know you hate me. I know I am too weak for you so just let me go."

"Don't dare to leave me again. You are mine. This baby is mine. You will come with me now." he held my hand and spun me around towards him.

Tears were rolling down my face. I couldn't even raise my gaze to his eyes. He moved closer and wiped my tears with his thumb. It sent the same tingles in my body as before. He leaned forward and kissed my forehead. His hand went to my baby-bump and he caressed that and I felt movement inside me. Mason's eyes widened and a small smile spread across his face. I flinched back a little and wiped my tears again.

"Just go away. You were the one who asked me to go away and you were the one who didn't want to see my face. Go back to your pack and your girlfriend, the Luna. Don't waste your time on me. It's not worth it." I said calmly but couldn't keep poison out of my words.

He looked a little shocked. Then he again tried to reach my face but I took another step back. "Please. Let me live, please. You have hurt me all my life. I can't take it anymore, I can't." tears flow freely down my eyes and I ran away from him. I was glad he didn't try to stop me. I just ran away...

    I came back to my apartment and called Lucas. He was there on time and hugged me tightly when he noticed that I was a complete mess.

"Genie..? What happened?" he asked me rubbing my back.

"He is here. He will take me away. He will hurt me again." I cried.

I couldn't control my emotions. It was too much to think about. I was a wreck.

Luke growled. "He won't. I'm calling alpha. He will take care of that."

"No, he can't. Mason is the strongest of them all. I need to run from here or he will take away my baby. He knows that it is his baby. I can't live without my baby." I said while sobbing.

His grip tightened around me.

"He won't." and I heard another growl from the door.

My head turned there and I saw Xander who was sending daggers to Luke. Luke pushed me behind him and growled at Xander.

"Don't come near her. go away." Luke snarled.

"Who are you to tell me that?" Xander yelled back and I whimpered.

Xander looked a little taken aback and he looked at me. His eyes were filled with Guilt? Seriously? I never thought about it.

"Eve, can we talk?" he asked me gently but I shook my head. I clutched on Luke's shirt.

"Alpha has called us downstairs. He has come with warriors. Don't worry, Genie. They won't hurt you.  Let's go." Luke took my hand and we passed Xander and came downstairs. My heart was throbbing loudly.

I saw Alpha Brody and Mason were talking. Mason was furious and he looked like he was going to shift. Luke squeezed my hand.

Alpha Brody turned towards me and Mason too. Mason's gaze fell upon mine and Luke's hands and he growled lowly.

"Stay away from my mate." He yelled. I flinched but Luke didn't react. I hid behind Luke and Mason growled again.

"Lucas, come here. Alpha Mason needs to talk to his mate." Alpha Brody said and I shivered. Luke turned towards me and I shook my head. He gave me a sympathetic look because he couldn't avoid his Alpha's order.

He released my hand and went to them. My heart was beating in inhuman speed. I felt small movement inside my stomach which showed that the baby was unhappy with whatever was going on. Mason came forward and I took a step back showing him my reluctance. I was terrified and couldn't look him in the eye.

"Look at me, Genevieve." He said but I didn't move, I couldn't move. He stopped in front of me and made me look at him.

"Don't hurt me, please. I haven't done anything to you so please let me go." I pleaded again.

His eyes softened a little but then again changed back to stormy gray.

"I would never hurt my baby." He said.

That time it was crystal clear that all he wanted was my baby nothing else. I protected my stomach and stepped back from him.

"He is mine. I would never give him to you." I spat.

I don't know where that courage came from but I was sure of this one thing.

"I would never take him away from you, Eve." He said softly, "He is our son. We will raise him together." I looked at him in disbelief and shook my head. I turned to go away and Xander was standing there.

"Eve..." he started but I cut him off,

"Please, just leave me. I know you will take me with you and hurt me again. I never did anything to you, Xander but you always hurt me. For God's sake let me go." I cried in front of him.

Whatever happened next left me in a daze. He hugged me tightly and started crying.

My forehead was pressed to his chest. I didn't even remember when the last time was, he acted like a real brother to me. Today was the first day when he hugged me like this. I couldn't move.

Then after a few seconds, I wrapped my arms around him and he tightened his grip.

"I am sorry for whatever I did. I always acted like an asshole please forgive me. I'm so sorry." He mumbled.

I didn't say anything. After a few minutes, he pulled back. I don't know what happened suddenly that he was so sorry for whatever happened.

Two arms were wrapped around my waist and pulled me back to a strong chest. I knew it was Mason. He breathed near my neck. I tried to move away but he was stronger.

"Why are you doing this?" I whispered.

"Because you are mine and I want you to forgive me and come with Me," he stated and I was shocked.

"You don't understand, alpha. I am weak. What if this baby is weaker? You will throw him away. I don't want that so please..."

And suddenly he flipped me towards him so I was facing him.

"I would never do that to my pup." He stated angrily. I swallowed hard and shook my head.

"Where is your wolf? My wolf cannot feel her," he asked.

"She is dead," I answered calmly.
