Renee’s Love

Chapter 3

Xavier's POV

When Renee told me that Alec and his buddies were her bullies I almost lost control over my wolf, Zack. We got to the school and she immediately jumped out and almost ran into school, I think I made her uncomfortable.

I stepped out of my car, grabbed my stuff, and walked into school. I had my schedule changed to match Renee's so I could keep an eye on her in case Alec tries something. After all, I am the next alpha after I find my mate and my parents meet her but this will take longer because she's human.

I trudge into math class and glace around the room for a brief second and spot Renee in the corner of my eye. I somehow managed to trudge my way through the other chatting students. I take a seat next to her and she visibly tenses up, her eyebrows slightly knitting together. A small wave of nervousness washed over me but I just pushed it back and gulped."Hey, why'd you walk away so fast?" I ask gazing at her, studying her facial expression."I wanted to get to class." I nod my head, but I can tell she's lying from her tone of voice and the small twitch in her posture. She's bad at lying. I focus my attention back on the door and notice the last of the students are filing in. "That's reasonable," I respond quickly, not knowing what else to say. Soon after, class ends and Renee gets up and speedily walks out the door. It was hard to spot her so I tried my best to keep up with her.

She goes towards the gym and into the girl's locker room. I obviously can't go in but at least I'll know she'll be safe for the time being. The rest of the students arrive and we start gym class. The only thing we really did was run laps in teams but other than that, nada. I make my way to the showers and quickly rinsed myself off. Once I finish I put on some clothes and made my way to try to find Renee. In the corner of my eye, I spot Renee and try to catch up with her. I halted and stood still when I realized she was with Rose my best friend so I knew she'd be safe. Anyways I gaze, astonished at the smile that was basically glowing that was glued to Renee's face. I sigh in relief when I know that Renee will be safe in Rose's hands. Then again you can never know for sure, so I take the risk and decide to follow and observe them. After a walk of Renee and Rose chatting we arrive at a nice-looking house. They exchange goodbyes and Renee stalks over to the door, her aura just dripping with nervousness. Something feels...off. why would Renee be so nervous? I'll just wait out here for a while and observe to make sure that Renee will be alright. I can't help but feel nervous for my mate.

Renee's POV

I walk into the house as quietly as possible, a feeling of dread forming in the pit of my stomach. I bend down and carefully take off my shoes. I turn around and pad around the house, I check every nook and cranny to acknowledge that my father is nowhere to be found. Or so I thought. I did a small victory dance in my head and I swiftly turned to trudge up the stairs. The light abruptly turned on making me flinch. Panic coursed through my veins, alarm, and fright making me stifle a scream. I turn to see, surprise surprise, my father. Where was he?? I made sure to check everywhere! Thoughts zoomed through my mind, forming a headache to add to the gut-churning panic. I bit the inside of my cheek to suppress the urge to just open the door and scram. He makes a quick check on my body until his gaze lands on my pants.*s**t* I cursed in my head, biting my tongue preparing for what was about to happen. My pants were ripped even more than the style people have these days, the rip going all the way up to my knees, exposing my slightly purple bruises.

He walked up to me, his gaze holding a tremendous amount of hatred. He parted his lips and started shrieking in a ragged voice that only held hostility. "WHAT THE f**k DID I TELL YOU ABOUT YOUR CLOTHES??" I lower my head, the floor, and my feet being the only thing in my line of sight. I rapidly blink and gathered enough courage to look up and took in a shaky breath. "Y..you told me t..to never ruin them. "I started in a shaky voice, my knees trembling. I tried so hard to make my voice clear and strong but ended up with withered results. He stared at me as if a dog with 5 legs just came into his line of sight. He scowled and said in a supposedly calm voice. "Yes, but I also told you that if you were to ever disobey me I'd beat you, didn't I?" His scowl quickly turned into a smirk. I nod my head, deeply taking in ragged breaths to prevent myself from going into a panic attack."Yes, father." Before I could comprehend what I had said I once again looked up to see a glass beer bottle heading towards my face. My eyes widened as the bottle made contact with the side of my head. I stumbled and landed on the floor, gasping and close to tears from the glass that had entered my skin. A blurry haze covered my eyes, a warm liquid trickling down my face. Blood.

My father proceeds to kick me in the stomach, knocking the last of my breath out of me. I gasp, trying to intake air as the countless kicks prevent me from doing so. Croaks and grunts escaped my mouth from the amount of pain I had to endure, wishing that it would all just end. I used some of my last strength to block my ribs, not feeling like breaking them again. He takes this as an invitation and starts striking my ribs*c***k* the awful sound had stopped after four of them. Then my father picks me up by my hair, not caring about the sticky blood that was in it, and throws me across the room. I hit the table with a loud *thump* and *crash*. I was left lying there breathless, wheezing and coughing, confusion flooding me like a tsunami. *How the f**k did he do that?* my thoughts are everywhere at this point. I start coughing up blood, still wheezing for breath, praying my father doesn't kill me tonight.

Xavier's POV

As I'm sitting outside Renee's house until an abrupt and sudden pain makes its way to my ribs. An unbearable pain making me cough and wheeze. I scramble out of the car, doubling over, the pain interrupting my thoughts. I take in a large breath and stumble across the driveway and to the door. From the outside, I hear a loud muffled crash and someone groaning and coughing.

I break the door down and rush in to see Renee on the ground with blood all over her, wheezing and her breathing getting slower. I look over at a man who I'm guessing is her father. "what the f**k do you think your doing boy! Get out of my f*****g house."

I look at him in disgust at what he's doing to his own daughter " I'm saving MY MATE from her abusive father that's what the f**k I'm doing." I walk over to Renee and carefully pick her up careful not to hurt her any further. She groans as I pick her up and carry her out of the house.

Her father doesn't even move or say a word he just lets me take her *asshole* "where are you taking me?" Renee asks me in an exhausted and exasperated voice. "Don't worry, I'm taking you somewhere safe, you'll never be hurt ever again, I promise." I put her in my car and call my father, after two rings he picks up.

"What do you want so late in the night?" I shake my head "I've found my mate, but I think she's human" there's silence on the other end when my dad finally speaks. "I'm happy for you son, but why didn't you just wait to tell me that in the morning?" I shake my head at my father's tired voice "Well there's a problem my mate has an abusive father so I was wondering if she could stay with us?" I hear my dad chuckle " of course she can stay with us she's family now" we talk a little more than I hang up and start driving to the packhouse.

Renee's POV

I wake up with a huge headache, remembering what happened last night. I look around noticing I'm in a huge bed with the softest duvet covering my body. I quickly get on high alert and glance at every crevice of the room I am in. The bedroom is even more gorgeous and extravagant than the bed, it's huge. I stumble to the bathroom coughing and barely notice that someone cleaned me up and put bandages on my cuts and new wounds.

I walk out of the bathroom and notice some clothes on the bed. They are my..size? Ok well, I put them on and it's a nice black tang-top and black sweats that fit nicely. There are also undergarments. *comfy* I think as I smile at my appearance.

*knock* *knock* I hear from the door." come in." I say in a tired voice. I'm surprised when I see a motherly woman walk in "hello dear I've made you something to eat" I look at the food that the woman gave to me. Eggs, waffles, strawberries, bacon, and orange juice. "Wow I haven't eaten this much since I was ten." my eyes widen as I realize I had just said that out loud. The woman looks at me and just smiles. "oh dear I haven't introduced myself, I'm Xavier's mother my name is Pamela" she has the biggest smile. " hello I'm Renee Jones" I smile back.
