Unusual Mate

Marked

Athena's POV

Day in and day out, my routine became almost insufferable. Three weeks had past and this was how things were now. I was use to feeling alone.

Each day I woke to get to training early in the morning. Stella would pick up Aleksandr to spend the day with her kids. Each day Abaddon would train with anyone except me. Keeping a trained eye away.

I would pick Aleksandr up at breakfast and spend the rest of the day reading or with Alek.

If I saw Abaddon in the hall he would either walk right past me as if I were invisible or duck into the nearest room to avoid me.

Today was no different.

Training started in the court yard. I paired with a tall blonde haired boy. I was stronger than most of the males, which meant I couldn't spar with the females or I could seriously hurt one. Abaddon paired with his beta.

I knew my frustration was building inside of me. How much longer was he going to ignore me?

I dodged a blow to the face, grabbing the shifters wrist and flipping him hard on his back. Pressing my knee to his chest to hold him in place.

He was clenching in pain and gasping for air. I had hurt him. I jumped up feeling regret immediately fall over me.

Over the screams I vaguely heard Abaddon announce training was over.

I watched as the pack nurse came to the man's side and then I slowly walked into the pack house. I went upstairs with a knowing nod to Stella as I passed. She knew I needed some time alone.

Getting to the hall I saw Abaddon walking toward me, as he walked past a burning pushed up through my chest and burst out from my mouth.

"What is your problem?" I shouted at him.

Turning to look at me with disgust written all over him, he answered, " Me? You hurt one of the scouts today. You need to get your temper under control!"

This made me furious. Who did he think he was?

"No, Abaddon. You have been ignoring me for weeks now. Why? Do you not want me here? Because if that is the case I will leave. I will pack everything and you will never see me again."

"No you won't. You will not leave!" He had a command to him, but his alpha voice was nothing to me. As his mate, I wanted more than anything to stay and find out why.

"Then what is wrong?"

He stared off into the distance. Anger clenching his jaw as he bit his lip ever so slightly. His temple and brow buried in frustration. However, it was his eyes that softened my anger. My heart sank into the pit of my stomach. He had pain and longing echoing from the dark ember of his eyes.

I reached up to touch his shoulder ever so slightly to turn him to look at me. That was a mistake.

He grabbed my wrist and panic struck my soul. This was fight and flight. I kneed him as hard as I could, aiming where it would count. I missed. That didn't matter because it still worked. He let go and I ran all the way to my room. Slammed the door and locked myself in.

Falling against the door sobbing. I pressed my back firmly to the door as to be sure it wouldn't budge.

Why? Again. Another man I open up to hurting me. Tears soaking my face, I looked down to see no marks on my wrist.

I jumped at the sound of knocking on my door. Not light, but not firm either.

"Athena, I am sorry. Please open the door." Abaddon was wait on the other side of the door, begging to be let in.

Did I trust him enough to open it, to allow him to apologize. Really, it was me who needed to apologize. I freaked out over something he had no idea of.

I unlocked the door and slowly opened for him to come in. Closing the door behind him.

He stood there waiting for me to move to the center of the room. Far enough away from him to not hurt either of us.

"I am sorry-" he began but I put my hand up to hush his words.

"No. Do not apologize. I need to. You have ignored me for weeks and the first interaction we have brought on a flash back that was out of either of our control."

He stared at me with confusion.

"One day I will tell you everything," I said. "For now, I am sorry."

Abaddon took slow and gentle steps toward me. "Athena, never be sorry for what happened in your past that still effects you. Someone hurt you before me and my ignorance was not paying attention to how you felt. I am so sorry I hurt you, may it be emotionally or physically. I am sorry I haven't been here for you the past few weeks. I will make that up to you every day of my life. I love you, Please forgive me."

My heart dropped and my breath caught in my chest. Did he say those words to me. Just inches from my face now.

I looked up into his eyes, tears welling in mine.

Abaddon scooped one hand around my waist and the other caressing my face. "Did you hear me my moon? I love you."

Tears poured down my face as the words rang out throughout my body. I could feel Azriel jumping for joy at his proclamation.

"I love you too," I said as my mind hurtled over the idea that he too loved me.

Abaddon pressed his lips firmly to mine. Slowly, I accepted the kiss and wrapped my arms around him. This kiss was new. Full of love and passion.

Abaddon's tongue requested passage into my mouth and I granted access. Exploring each others mouths, Abaddon picked me up and set me on the bed. Slowly he began kissing down my neck.

Just this simple act made my breath erratic. My heart beating faster. He lingered on the sweet spot of my neck. Slipping my shirt up slowly. Panic began to overwhelm me, when Abaddon slowed and kissed my lips again gently.

"I will stop if you would like me too." His voice husky made my core weep. I couldn't speak, all I could do was shake my head no. I absolutely didn't want him to stop.

He slipped my shirt over my head and continued placing kisses all over my chest as he slipped my bra off.

When my n*****s were exposed, they were hard and ready to be pleasured. Abaddon took one in his hand and the other in his mouth. Pitching and twisting the right while sucking and nibbling the left. I felt heat slowly boiling within my body. He switched sides and continued the motion on opposite n*****s.

Once both of them were full at attention and tender red, Abaddon continued down with kisses and pulled his shirt over his own head.

This man's body was build by gods. He had biceps much too big to grasp with one, or even two hands. His chest muscles and abs wear sculpted by the finest artist in heaven. Tattoos decorating his body like christmas.

His body glistened and I was again caught with air in my lungs.

How did I become so lucky to have this gorgeous man?

Abaddon smirked as he caught my stare and continued his task. Kissing my hips as he slid my leggings off. This man was magical.

Once my pants were off, all that was left were my panties. Abaddon began kissing my thighs up to my core. Placing kisses all up and down my slit. Fabric keeping the barrier between us.

He teased me enough and slipped the underwear away. I was left there bare and fully exposed.

Abaddon moved his lips and tongue across my core magically. Lingering every now and then on my sweet spot. I felt the heat rising again within me. The radiation drawing in as I felt the climax build within me.

Grasping the bed, I felt Abaddon press slightly more causing a burst to flow from my body. The peak of my heat releasing.

Abaddon slowly leaned up with a smile on his face and stood to take his pants and underwear off. If I thought his body was sculpted by gods, even higher beings preformed miracles on the rest of him.

My heart skipped and the sight of this beautiful man.

Abaddon positioned himself above me, kissing me slowly as he entered me. The pain was a slow burn as he continued to push deep within my cavern. The blissful pain causing me to grasp his back and dig my nails deep. I pulled at him as I wanted his full length inside. Pushing through the pain of his size.

Once He was settled deep within me, he stoped kissing me and pronounced his love once more. I smiled and returned the same.

Slowly, he began thrusting his length in and out of me. The pain slowly subsiding to a burning pleasure.

Feeling him deep within, I let out moans of pleasure. Sounds that begged for more. Abaddon began kissing my neck once more while picking up the pace. Deeper and harder he thrusted. I felt my core and heat rising again. Abaddon too began to tense and he continued to thrust deeper and nibble my neck.

As the pressure built inside me I felt Abaddon bite deep into my shoulder causing the fire inside me to explode once more. His teeth sinking into my marking spot as he burst inside me too.

Every part of my body was full of pleasure and pain at once.

I was now marked by my mate.
