Werewolf

Luke's POV
I was so angry! After one whole week, my mate finally woke up only to lose consciousness again! The people in my pack knew that she obviously had a past and that we were supposed to take it slow with her. Still, my mom, the twins, Jake, and Alexis rushed towards us, making her panic and yet again lose consciousness.
“I told you guys to be careful and not overwhelm her,” I said as I threw my hands in the air, frustrated.
“We’re sorry, sweetie. We were just worried.” My mom uttered.
All five of them were seated in the living room, with me pacing back and forth. They were all shifting uncomfortably in their seats from my ranting.
“I know, mom, but now.....now she’ll just be more scared and not cower back from us, from me, her mate.” I all but yelled. I heard her sight.
“It’s okay, Luke, just take it easy with her next time she wakes up, and it’ll be fine,” Alexis said.
“Yeah, ’ca

Luke's POV
Waking up to these beautiful blue eyes was something I would never get bored or tired of for the rest of my life. After our conversation about my mate’s true form last night, I headed to my room and couldn’t keep my hands off of her. I ended up sleeping with her pressed against my body and in between my arms.
She seemed confused for a while before she rose from her place with a stare and immediately cowered in the corner. God, I’m such an idiot! Of course, she would freak out if she woke up in a stranger’s arms.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay, I won’t hurt you,” I said calmly without moving from my sitting position so as not to scare her more.
She looked into my eyes, trying to figure out if I was telling the truth. I could see her beautiful tail moving behind her. Obviously, she was still unaware of its presence; however, it didn’t take long before it touched her cheek, making her jump

Luke's POV
“She’s gone, Luke. Your mate, she’s gone.”
My mother’s words kept repeating themselves in my mind as I practically ran towards my room, taking three steps at a time. Is she gone? How can she be gone? We didn’t see anyone leave through the front door, and no one smelled any unfamiliar scent. This is my entire fault. I wasn’t supposed to leave her.
I opened my room door to only stop dead in my tracks.
There, the place where my mate should be was empty. She wasn’t there. I was going to break down.
I felt my mom’s hand on my shoulder, making me turn around and face her.
“How did this happen? Weren’t you with her? Didn’t I tell you to look after her for me, mom?” I yelled, anger lacing my every word.
“I-I’m sorry. I just went to the bath-bathroom, and when I c-came out, sh-she wasn’t there.” My mom stuttered between sobs. My eyes softened, and I felt bad for yelling at her. This wasn’t her fault. It was all mine.
I pulled her into my embrace. “I’m sorry, mom. I shouldn’t have yelled at you. I’m just worried.”
I gave her a quick kiss on the head then turned to my bed. I realized that the window was opened as I felt a gust of wind hit my face. I quickly ran towards it and looked at the garden, and there she was, my mate. She was trying to run, but she wasn’t fast enough due to her injuries. Shit. I had to get her.

Her POV (Luke’s mate, since she still has no name)
Pain. All I could feel right now was pain, and I couldn’t help but wonder, am I dead?
I felt myself lying on something soft and warm. I tried moving my arm, but it was so heavy. There was something wrapped around it. I could feel it.
I tried opening my eyes, but my eyelids were too heavy. Still, I fought against them until they fully opened. It took some time for my eyes to adjust to the darkness.
Where am I?
I slowly tried getting up even though my whole body ached with every move I made. Finally, after a few struggles, I was able to sit up straight. I looked around in the darkness and realized that I was in a room—a huge one with extravagant decorations.
Why am I in someone’s room? Oh no, please don’t tell me I was sold to someone else again. There’s no telling what that person would do to me. It might be worse than what I had to endure in my previous pack. I might get raped this time.
I started panicking. I had to get out of here.
I looked around and could see a door in front of me with light illuminating from the space below. I heard some fumbling inside, and I realized that there was a person there. I think that’s the bathroom. I had to run away before that person got out and saw me.
I removed the covers from on top of me and hardly tried to get out of bed.
There was a big window on the wall next to me, and whether I liked it or not, it was my only escape.
I opened the window and saw that there was a huge tree right next to it. It looks like my escape will be easier than I thought. Using my good hand, I held on to the nearest branch firmly. I then placed my left leg on the branch below it and slowly placed my other right leg next to the left. I hissed from the pain I felt as I moved my right hip joint.
I was now practically standing on the tree with both hands holding a branch and both legs on the one below.
I slowly started making my way down and made sure that I didn’t slip so that I could run away. I can’t injure myself more. That would just slow me down.
I finally made it to the ground safely, and as soon as my feet touched the grass, I was sprinting towards the many trees and bushes.
Not long after, I heard the sexiest voice ever heard yell after me. “Wait!!”
Even though his voice was amazing and it made world war three start in my stomach, I still couldn’t just stop and let him torture me, so I ignored him and kept running only to be pulled back by two strong arms, and my back was one pressed against a hard chest, shocks erupting from wherever he touched.
The force made both of us fall on the ground, not hitting our backs but falling on our butts, so we were in a sitting position, me in front of him. I tried wriggling and making my way out of his grip so that I could run, but he just held me tighter.
“Ssh....ssh, it’s okay. I’m not going to hurt you.” I heard him murmur in my ear softly. I couldn’t believe him, not after ten years of horrible tortures I received.
My heart was now beating uncontrollably in my chest, and my breathing was uneven. I tried not to cry, but I couldn’t help the stray tears that fell from my eyes, and when I realized I wouldn’t be going anywhere, I had nothing else to do but beg as the rain started to pour and drench everything around us.
“P-please, please let me go. Please.” I begged between sobs hoping he would listen, only to feel his grip tighten around me. Another sob escaped my lips, “Please, I’ll do anything, just please, don’t hurt me.”
I heard him growl, and it only scared me more, making my sobs grow louder.
“Baby, I would never hurt you. You’re my mate. I’ll always love you and protect you. Don’t leave me, please.” He said, whispering the last word, sounding desperate.
Mate? No, I had no mate. I was a worthless human, I didn’t have a mate.
This was one of their tricks. Saying that he’s my mate so that I would reach for him, only to be hurt again endlessly.
I felt his grip loosens, and I took this chance, scooting away and turning to look at my capturer. He was gorgeous, with black hair falling, covering his forehead at one side, and the most beautiful gray-green eyes I’ve ever seen with teal specks here and there. His face was perfectly sculpted, and his eight pack was evident from his shirt. I noticed his damn sexy appearance.
He looked pained and worried. I couldn’t help but look at him in confusion. He slowly tried to come closer, but I just moved away again, tears running down my face. He stopped moving but never broke eye contact with me.
I heard him say slowly, the way someone talks to a kid, “Baby girl, it’s okay. I won’t hurt you, I promise. You’re my mate, how can I hurt you?” He asked in a disbelieving way.
“Liar.” It was the only thing I said or actually whispered, but, of course, him being a werewolf, he heard me.
“Why would you say that?” He asked, pain evident in his voice.
I pulled my knees to my chest and started, “I have no mate. They all told me that because I’m a worthless human. I will never have a mate.”
Just then, I heard him growl, and his eyes turned black. Oh gosh, I think I’m in trouble. I’ll just get beaten earlier from Alpha Deklan, and now for babbling nonsense, I’m sure he’ll do the same. I quickly hid my face and prepared myself for the blows, but nothing came. I didn’t feel any pain. I raised my head slowly and looked up to him to see him looking at me, and his eyes were sad and regretful.
“I’m so sorry, baby girl, I never meant to scare you.”
Is he serious? Did he actually care? I couldn’t stop the questions that floated through my mind.
I was about to say something when I heard footsteps and saw about four or five people making their way towards us. I panicked again, and I couldn’t help the scared expression I had on my face.
He must’ve noticed how scared I was as he quickly turned his body towards them and growled loudly, making them stop in their tracks. He moved his body in a way where my own was hidden behind him, shielded from them, but that still didn’t help as black dots blurred my vision and was soon pulled to darkness.
