LAURA'S POV.
"Nathan, don't please!" I yell out with all strength left in me, this time my voice is a little louder than I had expected.
"I'm sorry but this isn't about you" he answers curtly, his voice cold and his tone distant, I feel a part of me shredded instantly on hearing his words.
"Maybe this might actually work" Lucas mutters, he seems somewhat pleased by the sudden twist of events.
"I am doing this for me, and I'm sorry if you think everything is about you but you really are nothing other than a maid, how about you get this into your head?" he asks, we both glare at each other for passing seconds, no one saying a thing.
"Nathan, why.. B-b-but.." I stuttered, finding the right words to say had suddenly become hard.
"not everything is about you, perhaps you forgot your place, a maid, a low life that all you are and the only reason I'm here is simple because I really don't want any deaths in my pack please don't make me have a rethink of the whole arrangement " he chirps in, he turns to face Lucas who has a strange look on his face, somehow it seems like he's amused by the change of things.
"this is certainly a plot twist I was not expecting " he answers, he leans against a doorway, his arms folded across each other as he crosses his legs slightly over the other.
"Are you going to fight or what?" Nathan asks, getting all edgy at the moment.
"How about I leave you two to be, I see things will unfold perfectly for me, and for the record only one of you gets to live" he answers, I cork up my left eyebrow knowing he is never nice and acting this way is too suspicious even for Lucas.
"throw them into a cell" he utters with a smile on his face and footsteps approach us, four pack guards make their entrance and swiftly scoop up both, dragging us by the arms until we are both locked up in the cell.
There is heavy silence between us, one waiting for the other to speak, I swallow hard, holding my breath as long as I can, not wanting to make the slightest move.
"what as that about?" I ask, giving in to the current situation, my voice creasing at intervals as I speak.
"what was what about?" he asks, he glances up at me and all I see is disgust written over his face, he snorts and rolls his eyes before folding his arms across one another.
"this, exactly what did all this about? You left me in his hands and plotted an escape? You would not even look me in the eyes , you didn't give a single explanation and you think I'll rectify all you've done if you died foolishly out there?" I ask, letting go of my anger, voicing out all the pain I had piled up in me.
"Whatever it is you aim at it's not going to work, you know my life was perfect , it had been nothing but good until you came along and ruined things for me. I'm certain you are happy for some reasons and I'm sick of this act you keep up, how dare me? At least I'm not the one sleeping around with someone who had abducted and abused me" he yells, I feel a stab in my heart as I listen to him speak.
For a minute I had really hoped nothing had been said to him, I really dreaded Lucas would hold himself and let things be as they are, for some reason I wished he would not say a thing of it to Nathan, but I had been wrong and I feel like a fool, utterly embarrassed and no matter how I try to explain, notwithstanding how I portray the whole thing to him it still doesn't change the fact that I had slept with Lucas.
"you left first, you never cared all you see me as is your maid so I see no reason why you should be here acting all sad" I chirp in, tryout to put up a facade that I had not been hurt, I feel my whole body shook from pain, his words, glance and gestures, they all hurt me without he putting more efforts into it.
"do whatever it is that you wish to but I don't care anymore okay?" he answers before moving away from me,
"you can't just block me off, you can't call things short as you wish, I spent years hoping to find someone who would love me honestly but here I am locked up in a cell with a mate who would not even acknowledge me to be just human" I yell right at him, I'm worried even by my mere reaction to this, I had not expected to yell in such manner and from the look on his face I can say he had not expected it either.
"and maybe that is exactly where the problem comes from, you go around thinking you mean something to me like you actually matter at all simply because you are my mate, a title you give yourself so easily, you really think of yourself as a saint? You are a nut job on the loose Laura, ever since you had slit your very own wrist to frame her that night I knew you were nothing but an impending doom a lunatic and I hate the minor fact that you are my mate"
"Nathan, don't! " I caution, my feet become wobbly as I see the look in his eyes, hate, anger, and pain. I just have really hurt him by having s*x with Lucas but how am I to explain that I had no control over my body and my wolf would not appear to me ever since then.
"I Nathan.."
"don't do this to us" I cut his words short before running into his grasp, I held him by the arm while staring directly into his orbs. He jerks me off his hand causing me to fall to the ground
"That's where you made a mistake from, there is no us…. I Nathan reject you Laura as a mate!" he spells out with utter hatred while staring down at me.
I felt my whole body shook, my heart sink and it seems like a pit had formed in my belly… my whole world had come crashing down right before my eyes
