Adam POV:
Rage flows through my veins.I know my eyes are pitchblack and deep growls rumbles from me.
"He did what?!" I clench my fists and grind my teeth.
"Apparently it wasn't the first time. He used to come to her room every night he worked. But he had never touched her like that before." Lisa says and shakes her head. "According to Sophie was her shirt ripped and her skin was bruised and scratched on her chest. Rebecka said that she hadn't been able to sleep this morning when I gave out the medicine and she asked for painkillers for her headache. Jacob has been keeping an eye on her."
"Who is Jacob?" I ask through clenched teeth.
"He is a nurse. He is harmless." Monica says.
"Harmless? Like the man that forced..."
"She is awake." Jake cuts me off and focus his hearing on her. I stand up to walk out.
"Adam wait!" Lisa grabs my arm and I growl at her. "You are going to scare her. She doesn't trust people easily so you have to be careful."
"I can come with you, she trusts me." Monica says and I nod. Monica walks first through the corridors to Rebeckas room and softly knocks on her door. "Rebecka, it's me, Monica. I have a friend here that would like to meet you." I hear faint footsteps approach the door on the other side and the door slides up to reveal the most beautiful face I've ever seen. Her long, brown hair is tied in a messy bun on the back of her head and a few tendrils falls in her face. Her eyes is bright green with an almost gold ring around the pupil and are filled with fear as they look between me and Monica.
"Where were you? Who is he?" She says with a soft voice that is like music to my ears.
"I was held up with a little problem in my family. But that is why I'm here. This is Adam, my son Jakes best friend and he..."
"Make him go away." She interrupts and I furrow my eyebrows. She backs into the darkness in her room when she sees my face and I take a step forward so I don't loose sight of her. Monica puts up her hand on my chest and I try to stay calm.
"Rebecka please listen to me. No one is going to hurt you. I will be here the whole time. He just wants to talk to you."
"Is he a doctor?" She asks and I chuckle.
"No, he is not a doctor." Monica answers and looks at me over her shoulder. "Can we please come in and just talk with you?" There is no answer, the door just slides up a little more and Monica walks in. I follow and inhale deeply. The whole room smells like her. Vanilla and pinetrees.
"Mine." I say low and Monica looks at me.
"What is that smell?" Rebecka asks and sniffs the air. Monica and I look at eachother.
"What smell?" Monica asks.
"It smells almost like leather and peppermint, I don't know, I can't describe it. It smells good." She says with a shy smile.
"That is your scent Adam." Monica says through the mindlink.
"I know, she shouldn't be able to smell that unless she is right beside me."
"How are you doing sweetheart?" Monica says and Rebecka looks warily at me. "It's okay Rebecka, he is here for you." As soon as the words has left her mouth Rebeckas eyes widens in fear as she looks behind me and a roar fills the room.
"No!" She screams and jump behind me. The sound of two colliding bodies and Rebecka that whimpers in pain makes my heart stop. I spin around and see that big man from before, Brian on top of Rebecka on the floor. I see red and jerk him up by a grip around his throat. I push him up against the wall and look at Rebecka on the floor, she stares terrified on the knife that lays next to her. A loud alarm sounds in the room and corridor and I realise Monica must have pushed the assaultalarm she carries.
"What do I do?" Rebecka asks with her eyes still on the knife. "I don't want to be strapped to the beltbed. What do I do?!" She asks Monica, the panic clear in her voice.
"Back away honey. I know you won't do anything. Just back away and stay with Adam."
"Don't go near him Rebecka!" Brian hisses and tries to pry my hands away from his neck. "Don't you dare go near him."
"I suggest you stop talking. Now." I say and I hear that my voice is much lower than normal. My wolf wants to rip his throat beacuse he tells our mate to stay away from us. Several people rushes into Rebeckas room and wrestle Brian to the floor and drag him away. His screams fills the corridor until the door slams shut and silence spreads through the building. I'm all alone with my mate. I slowly turn around and look at her. She stands pressed up against the wall, her face is pale and she bites her fingernails. I smell the faint scent of blood and rush up to her.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" I ask and start examining her. As soon as my skin touches hers sparks erupts between us. She gasps and backs up even more.
"Please go away." She begs and averts her eyes.
"Don't ask me to leave." I plead but makes sure I don't touch her.
"Be quiet." She whispers.
"What?" Did she talk to me?
"Stella be quiet." She whispers again.
"Who is Stella?" I ask. "Rebecka look at me!" I grab her chin and lift her head so she is looking at me. I see her eyes flicker to a bright blue and I suck in a breath. Is she a werewolf too?
"Jake, are they certain that Rebecka is not a werewolf?" I ask through the mindlink and watch as Rebeckas eyes shift colour. She is still talking in a low voice and she keeps mentioning Stella.
"Well, neither my mom or Lisa has seen any signs that she is a werewolf. And you know that it is pretty hard to hide. Why so you ask?"
"I'm starting to belive that we found our second werewolf today."
"No way?! Your mate is a werewolf too?!"
"I'm not sure. But it's either that or she really is crazy."
"Rebecka look at me." Her eyes lock with mine and for a moment I am breathless. Crazy or not, she is the most beautiful being I've ever seen. "Do you know what a werewolf is?" Her eyes goes wide and her breath get stuck in her throat.
"How... how did you know?" She stutters.
"Who is Stella?" I ask.
"Stella is... she is my wolf." She says and I can't help but smile.
"Jake, I know how we will get her out of here."
