......2 weeks later..........
My head was spinning, my mind not able to process the information. I felt tears fall from my eyes as I listened to what the doctors were telling me. Dr, Marx and my therapist Dr. Kessler were telling me the options I had, but I couldn't listen any more. I jumped from the hospital bed, and ran out of the hospital. I saw ran to find Hudson, then I saw the monster who did this. He took everything away from me. I screamed as I threw myself on him and started beating his face in while I was sobbing.
"Sweet-heart stop." I looked down to see black eyes and not green. I fell to his chest sobbing.
"He took my life Sergio."
"What do you mean?" He whined.
"He took it all away." I couldn't bring myself to say the words I had just been told.
"I don't know what you mean."
"My mate won't want me because of him. He ruined me." I cried. "Mi ha rovinato." I repeated in italian.
"Reya, he's coming back." He said. I scrambled off of him and the monster came back. I felt my body begin to tremble with rage. Hudson came up behind me and I threw myself in his arms. I held on so tight I thought his bones would break.
"Rey talk to me." Hudson said.
"He took my future away." I said as I let go and backed away.
"What do you mean Rey?"
"Ha rovinato il mio futuro." I sobbed as I fell to my knees in anguish. It hurt so much.
"Awe Rey? Did your mate see the scars and reject you?" I heard the monster ask. I heard bones break as Hudson punched him. I heard the faint roar of an engine, but I couldn't take it. I got up and shifted then ran into the woods.
......2 hours earlier..........
"So the Queen is coming with a rouge from our pack?" I asked
"That is correct, she wanted to know why we kicked him out, but we haven't kicked anyone out in recent years." Chris said.
"What time is she coming?" I asked.
"She should be here in about two hours." Lani said.
"Alright, I'm gonna got see Dr. Kessler now then. I really want to be here when she arrives." I said as I stood up. My tight black t-shirt and jean shorts riding up. I pulled my shirt down and fixed my shorts before reaching down and fixing my knee high white socks with red stripes at the top. I walked to the door and put on my red converse to match my socks and wristband. I left the house and walked to Dr. Kessler's clinic which was right next to the hospital, I walked in and she smiled at me motioning for me to sit.
"Reya, how are you feeling today?"
"I'm great Dr. Kessler, I get to formally meet Queen Tempest today."
"I heard she was coming to our pack. This is so exciting!"
"I know I can't wait to see what she is like." I talked about the Queen and how I saw her in Seattle and, then I talked about the trip and my gifts for Jonah.
"What are your plans for the future Reya?" She asked after about an hour.
"Well hopefully I meet my mate soon. I want to be able to share everything with him, about my past and I hope he accepts me, after he finds out. Then should we overcome that I want to start our family, I want to be a better mother than mine ever was." Dr. Kessler gave me an odd look, then she opened my file and peaked at it.
"Reya, would you mind accompanying me to go see Dr. Marx?"
"Of course." I said a bit confused. We walked next door in silence, the Dr. Marx ushered us to a room with a big machine in it.
"Reya I'm gonna have Dr. Marx take and ultrasound on your stomach okay?" Dr. Kessler said.
"Okay..?" I said slowly. I took off my shirt after Dr. Marx asked. He had me lay down, then he put a cool gel on my stomach. He moved the sensor around my stomach and sighed. Then he took a cloth and wiped off the excess gel. I put my shirt back on to see Dr. Kessler and Dr. Marx looking at me sadly.
"What's with the faces?" I asked, getting worried. Then Doctor Kessler told me the news that tore my heart to shreds.
...............Back to the woods...........
I was running and whimpering at the same time. Venus was whimpering with me, she was as devastated as I was. I ran until I found and empty cave, I masked my scent and layed their to mourn my loss.
...............Hudson POV............
I had just turned 18 and taken the Alpha mantel from dad last night. So I got to be introduced to the Queen as Alpha Hudson. At my ceremony I found my mate Stella, It turns out she did reject her mate on a dare at her 18th party, but we have made up, and we sealed the deal the after the ceremony so she was waiting for the Queen with us. When Rey, didn't show up on time I tried to link her but couldn't get through. When I saw who the Queen brought us I was glad she didn't show up. Then I saw her launch her tiny body at him, knocking him down, then she began to beat him. I saw his eyes go black, the pain that was all over her face was killing me. I walked down to them and she scrambled off of Sergio as Ryan broke through. I had never seen Reya this sorrowful, the way she sounded, how she fell to her knees in utter anguish.
"Awe Rey? Did your mate see the scars and reject you?" Ryan asked as he was lifted by the guards. I heard bones snap as I launched my fist into his face. I heard the sound of a motorcycle, and I felt a twinge of relief until Reya got up and shifted then ran into the woods.
"Hudson! What's wrong with Rey?" I heard Jonah say as he ran up to me. I turned to face him, his dark blue eyes were laced with worry.
"All she said was "He took my future away." Jonah, it's bad." I said. I was extremely worried.
"What does he mean by scars?" The Queen asked from behind me.
So I told her, and Jonah. Jonah had to be restrained by eight wolves as he tried to get to Ryan, who laughed at him.
"Stupid boy, you wont want her when you see the marks. And I'll tell you a secret, she can never be like her mother. I made sure of that." He said laughing cruelly.
"I want him bound and gagged. Silver chains, wolfsbane on the gag. He will feel every ounce of pain he inflicted on Reya." I growled not taking my eyes from him.
When he was dragged away I had had Jonah shift with me and we went looking for Reya. I just wanted her to be okay. We searched for hours howling the entire time, other members of the pack joined us but we couldn't find her. Jonah, my parents and I were the last to go back to rest. Jonah went to the place he had asked the construction crew to build before he came home. I knew neither of us would be sleeping that night.
...............3 days later..............
Reya POV
(Reya, we need water.)
I don't want it
(Reya please.) I let Venus take control of our body as I layed back in a ball and kept crying. Venus came back and pushed me back into the control center. I found us laying by the lake, I got up on shaky legs and made my way back to my private cave. I was in there for a while, then I could smell the rain, and pine, with a hint of machine shop.
(Mate) Venus said.
He won't want us Ve. I said sadly. I didn't realize I had made a noise until I was looking up at a large light grey wolf with a creamy underbelly and legs. His eyes were the color of sapphires, I whimpered once and curled up into a ball. He crawled in the cave and layed with me, his head pressed against mine.
I woke up after sleeping for a while to see, food in front of my face. I was hungry, but I couldn't eat. I felt a hand on my head and I looked over to see Jonah looking at me sadly, extremely worried. I whined once then let my head drop to the ground.
"Please eat Kitten." I heard him whimper. It hurt to hear him so sad, but I was already in pain. I didn't move, i just closed my eyes. "Reya please. I need you." I whimpered, but didn't move or open my eyes. "Reya." He whined. I picked my head up and looked around the cave. I saw a robe and walked over to it, I shifted and put it then sat against the rock wall.
"Jonah go home." I said. I was looking at the ground.
"I'm not leaving you kitten." He said as he made his way over to me. "Talk to me, what happened." He pulled me into his chest, sparks lit my wrists where his hands touched me.
"Jonah, stop, reject me and find someone else. You deserve someone who can give you everything." I said trying to pull away.
"No-one else can give me you kitten. You will be my everything."
"Jonah, I'm scarred, broken. Find someone else." I tried to pull away again, but he was too strong.
"I know about Ryan. I know about what he did. Do you remember what I said when he gave you that eyebrow scar?"
"How do you know?" I asked ignoring his question.
"The Queen asked Hudson what scars and he told her and I everything he knew. Now tell me, do you remember what I said?"
"Jonah I can't be your mate. I don't love you." I lied, I wanted him to have pups, the life he deserved.
"That will change. Besides I'm not letting you go until you tell me what is really going on." He said firmly.
"It wont change. I will never love anyone. Ever." I said to pull myself from him again.
"So you want to be all alone? Is that it?" He growled at me. I knew he was angry, but I had to keep it up.
"Not alone, just not you or anyone like you." I said trying to hold back the sob, but it broke past my lips anyway.
"Reya, why are you trying to push me away. Tell me. Please." He whimpered. I finally yanked myself from his grip and I went to the end of the small cave.
"I can't give you a family Jonah. He took it away. I can't have pups." My body began to shake as I sobbed. I heard rustling and I felt sparks as Jonah cupped my face with his hands. His lips touched mine tenderly, I felt tears fall as he pulled away, it felt like a good-bye kiss, even though that was my first kiss.
"Reya. I don't want a family. Not if I can't have it with you."
