The hunter's daughter

"I am going to Sawyer's place to plan our next attack on the werewolf's land. You stay here, Monica. If you are good, I'll let you leave the house" Max told her.

"Yes, daddy" she replied.

"Be a good girl, Monica and your punishment will end soon" Max promised her.

"Yes, daddy" Monica answered him.

Max left and Monica spent many hours waiting for his return. She wondered if Reggie was still there at the Sawyer's place or if he had escaped. It was nearly dark when her father returned and he wasn't in a good mood.

"Where the f*** did, I put the key? What the f*** happened to it? How did that werewolf get out?" Max swore all the way from the truck.

"Monica, where the f*** are you? Did you take my key? Did you know that the werewolf would escape?" Max shouted at her.

"No, daddy. I thought you given it to the Sawyers? I didn't know that the werewolf would escape" Monica lied.

She was trying not to smile. Reggie must have escaped finally, she hoped that he was able to get back to his pack.

"Now I am going to have to track where it went, I'll be gone most of the night. Stay here, I'll need to shoot this thing" Max took out his gun and loaded it with silver bullets.

"Don't leave the house, it might come back here and kill us both" Max warned her.

Monica nodded but hoped that Reggie wouldn't get shot. She wasn't worried about him killing her. Reggie wouldn't kill his mate. She hoped her father would give up tracking him. Monica waited as her father went out into the night. She didn't know what to do. It wasn't long before she was alerted by the beeping of the alarm, there was an intruder in the house. Monica looked cautiously through the house until she met two golden brown eyes.

"Reggie?" she cried.

The golden brown eyes stepped out of the darkness and she saw Reggie. She was so relieved.

"How did you get here?" she wondered.

"It's a long story and I don't have much time before your father discovers I'm here" Reggie pointed as the alarm continued to beep.

Monica shut the alarm off and waited for Reggie to follow her into her bedroom. When he got in her room, he breathed in her scent like he was catching his breath.

"I missed you, I was so worried that your father was going to marry you off to that Declan" Reggie admitted to her.

"Why, what do did he say?" Monica wondered.

"He kept torturing me by saying he was your boyfriend. He was going to marry you. Is he telling the truth?" Reggie wondered.

"He wishes, we only ever kissed. I didn't really love him. I thought that he would make a good husband but that was before I kissed you" Monica admitted to him.

"And how was his kiss? Was it as good as mine?" Reggie asked her jealousy.

"It was good but not as good as yours. I don't think I want to kiss anyone else but you" Monica admitted to him.

Reggie smiled and went over to kiss her. Monica felt a tingle that crept through her body. She was feeling better now that Reggie was back.

"I have waited so long, to kiss you again" Reggie told her.

"I know I have waited a long time too" Monica replied feeling giddy.

"It's been a painful time for me, not only missing you but the torture I got" Reggie told her.

"What happened?" Monica asked him.

"The day you gave me the key, I was able to unshackle myself. I healed myself that night but the Sawyers were persistent in keeping me wounded and even drugged. I had to re-shackle myself during the day while they tortured me with knifes and electric cattle prods. Declan was aggressive with the torture. He kept saying that I shouldn't have made you fall in love with me. I barely healed and ate a little of the drugged food. It was along time before I could plan my escape. It wasn't until I saw your father's truck when I saw the opportunity I was looking for. After I was taken from my cell, I unlocked myself and waited until they were busy preparing for my torture. I quickly crept and hid in your father's truck. I knew he would come back here. Then I waited until dark where I could sneak into this house" Reggie explained to her.

" I'm so glad you escaped. You can stay with me while you rest" Monica told him.

"I will have to leave again, soon. Your father will still find me. I just need some food and a blanket. I could use a map; do you still have that map of your father's? I might need a weapon but I don't think I will need it as I will be returning to my pack" Reggie told Monica.

Monica felt sad again. Reggie had just escaped and was planning to leave her again.

"I wish that I could go with you" Monica told him.

"I wish that too but my pack might kill you. I will come back for you. When I do you will have to be marked so everyone knows that you're my mate" Reggie told her.

Monica nodded but felt like crying.

"I promise I will be back. I need my pack to help me from being recaptured from your father" Reggie explained.

"I know, I want you to be safe" Monica agreed.

"I want you to be safe too, my mate" Reggie told her and kissed her again.

Monica gave Reggie a small meal and drink. He ate it hungrily. She also gave him a change of clothes and some shoes. It was from her father's old stuff. He hardly went into his closest to throw away anything, so she doubted he would notice. She also reprinted out the map and gave Reggie a bag to carry it in. She also gave him a blanket and her small knife.

"Thankyou, Monica. I just need you to shut off the security system while I get out of here. We don't want you to get in trouble with your father, if he found out you helped me" Reggie suggested.

Monica nodded and agreed.

"Please be safe and I hope you will come back to me" Monica told Reggie.

"I will and I promise. I will be back for you, my mate" Reggie told her.

"Goodbye, I love you Reggie" Monica said.

"Goodbye, I love you, my mate" Reggie replied and left.
