Breaking My Mate Chapter 3
I woke up to someone banging on my door, I looked at the clock. Oh no its almost 9!
"Coming!" I opened the door and Sandra was standing there smiling.
"I'm sorry. Just give me 5 minutes, come in."
I got dressed fast, brushed my teeth and hair then ran out of the bathroom.
"Ready." She pulled me out of the room and down the stairs. When we got to the kitchen people kept staring.
"Why do they keep looking at us?" I whispered to Sandra.
"You're new here and not in the pack they don't exactly trust you."
"I'm no threat, I cant even punch right." After I was done I took my plate to the sink.
"Sandra how are we getting to the mall?" I asked.
"You two are going to the mall? To buy what? With what?" Kay teased.
Sandra smirked and before I knew it she went into my back pocket and pulled out Kevins card. "With this!"
Kay stood there with her mouth hanging open. I didn't know her but this is probably the only time that she was speechless.
"How did you get that you the thief? You stole the betas card!"
"I-I didn't, he gave it to me."
"You're lying!" By this time everyone in the room focused their attention on us. Some growled and the others whispered.
"She stole from the Beta and she's basically a rogue." When she said that a tall scary looking guy came forward. He grabbed my arm hard and I whimpered.
"Shut it rogue. How did you even get in here in the first place?"
"Kevin bought me here." I stammered.
"She's telling the truth!" Sandra yelled.
"Let her go!" She tried to pull me away from him but he was to strong. He gripped my arm hard. I heard a crack and cried out in pain.
"My wrist!"
"Thank god you're here! I got your card back from the rogue thief." Kay said while smiling.
He looked at me. He was angry when he saw me crying and holding my wrist. His eyes softened for a bit then went back to his regular hard expression.
"I didn't steal anything!" I cried. He walked over to me and looked at my wrist before holding it. I cried out and he growled.
"Who. Did. This?" Everyone looked around.
"I wont ask again." He growled.
"Me!" Said the scarey guy.
"So you think its alright to go around and break a lady's wrist?" He growled.
"I didn't mea-" He was cut off by Kevin's fist.
"She isn't a rogue, she's my guest and will be living here from now on. And if anyone of you lay a hand on her again I'll break it. Are we clear?"
"Yes Beta." Everyone said. "You." He pointed to me. "Come with me the doctor will look at your wrist."
I followed behind him like a lost puppy with my head down. I didn't like the glares that I was getting.
"It will be fine." He rubbed some cream on it and wrapped it. "It should heal by tonight." He smiled.
"Thank you."
"Beta can I speak to you?" The doctor asked.
I really wanted to hear what they were saying but since I haven't shifted in almost a year my wolf was weak. Kevin came back into the room.
"You'll be coming back tomorrow for a check up. Sandras outside waiting."
He handed me his card again. "If you have any problems let one of the guards know. And buy a cell phone."
"I can't, you're already buying me clothes I don't want to spend more than that."
"I'm your Beta & mate, I may not want to be with you but that doesn't mean I cant take care of you. Now take it." He walked me to the car and looked at Sandra.
"Whatever she likes make sure she gets it."
"Yes Beta."
"And get you some things as a thank you for making sure she's comfortable."
I've never tried on so many things in my life. Even at home I didn't. My mom would buy my clothes and they had to be approved by my dad.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yes."
"What do you want to eat?" I shrugged.
"Chinese?"
"OK." We walked over and ordered. I scarfed down my food it was delicious.
"So where are you from?" My eyes widened, I can't tell her I'm sure my dad put out the word that I was missing but i needed a friend and someone besides Mrs Keaton to talk about everything with.
"Can I trust you?" I asked.
"Of course, we're friends." She smiled. I told her everything except about being Kevins mate.
"That douche bag! If I ever see him I'll cut off his man parts. Don't worry you're safe here. Kevin wont let anyone hurt you. I'm glad you're here, no one wants to be friends with 'The Help'." I don't know why, Sandra is a nice fun person.
"How long have you been working at the castle?"
"For a few years. I mainly just help out around the kitchen, my mom is the head maid." She looked at the time.
"We should be heading back."
"OK."
She helped me put everything away and left, she promised to text me later. I was excited to have a cell phone. I pulled out the phone and called Kevin.
"Yeah!"
"Um hi Kevin."
"Misty is that you?"
"Yes. Sandra gave me your number is that OK?"
"Yes its fine. What do you need?"
"I was wondering if I could see Mrs Keaton."
"I'll be over in a few." He said before hanging up. "Rude." I mumbled.
I gathered a couple of things that I bought Mrs Keaton including the cell, it was buy one get 1 free. I was headed downstairs when I was pushed from behind. The bags flew out of my hands and I'm glad I was almost at the bottom other wise I would have really been hurt. I looked up the stairs to see some guys and Kay laughing.
I just gathered my things and waited on the porch, I didn't have time for their childish behavior. When Kevin pulled up he grabbed the bags and threw them in the back. When we got into the car I handed him his credit card and he took off. We didn't talk in the car, I was still nervous around him and he looked like he didn't want to talk. When we arrived at the hospital I ran to Mrs Keatons room.
"Misty!"
"Hi Mrs Keaton how are you feeling?"
"I'm feeling better now. The doctor said I'll be out in a day or two. You look nice."
"Thanks." I blushed. Kevin walked in with the bags and handed them to me.
"Well who is this handsome fellow." She smiled.
"I'm Kevin. Mistys friend."
"I got you a few things." I smiled.
"You didn't have to do that honey."
"I didn't he did." Kevin looked uncomfortable when we both looked at him.
"Thank you Kevin."
"Its no problem." He said while rubbing the back of his neck.
"I'm gonna leave you two alone for while, call me when you're ready."
"He seems like a nice guy. Are you two more than friends?" She smiled knowingly.
"N-No." I blushed. She laughed and played with her phone.
"He's going to give us both somewhere to live. I have to go to school and you have to help around the house, volunteer at the hospital or find a job. "
"No problem I have experience in medical records and I love helping people."
We sat there and talked until Kevin showed up. I was happy to see that she was doing better.
"I'll be back tomorrow." We hugged and I left. On the drive home I was enjoying the scenery. Everything looked so peaceful. Back home I never had time to just look around. My dad only allowed me to go to school to take exams, other than that I either had to stay in the house or on the balcony.
"You start school Monday. I've already taken care of everything except for a few details. I need to know your full name."
I cant give him my name he'll know who I am and that I ran away. I don't even want to think about what my dad and Jason would do to me.
"H-Henderson its Henderson." I lied.
I'm the worlds worst liar, I stutter and fidget. If I was to ever get interrogated I'd be dead. We drove in silence, again. He's really not a talker. Sandra said that something happened to him that made him this way but it wasn't her place to tell and no one really wants to talk about it. Being this close to him was making me hot and nervous at the same time. He's so freaking hot it should be a crime. I was practically drooling. An image flashed in my head of this kiss we shared. I had to roll the window down. I was having feelings that I never experienced. Me and my mother never had 'the talk' and every time I tried to read about it I got grossed out.
But it wouldn't be gross with him. I heard in my head.
Just imagine him touching and kissing-
"You'd better stop thinking like that innocent Misty." I jumped and looked at Kevin
"How did yo-"
"I'm your mate, I can hear your thoughts and you can hear mine." I blushed that's so freaking embarrassing. He chuckled at me and I glared at him.
"Its not funny my thoughts are private." He smiled and shook his head then looked back at the road. I've never seen him looked so relaxed, my anger went away immediately. When we got back to the castle I sat in the car for a few. Should I hug or kiss him goodbye? He is my mate but he doesn't want me. Well don't just sit here say something.
"Um thank you for the ride and clothes."
"No need to thank me its my job. I'll be here tomorrow to pick you up for your doctor's appointment. "
I leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. He looked shocked at first then back to his normal hard face. He nodded and I got out of the car. When I got in the castle I saw the three boys that bothered me in the kitchen. I became nervous and tried to walk the other way.
"Misty! Hey misty!"
"Ye-Yes?"
When they got down the stairs I gasped. They looked terrible. They had bruises everywhere.
"What happened to you?"
"The Beta happened."
"Kevin did this?" They all had black eyes and dark purple bruises. The one that touched me had it the worse his hand was swollen.
"What did he do to you?" His fingers looked like Vienna Sausages. They were swollen and ugly.
"He broke all of my fingers and made each of us fight him one on one, as you can see we lost. I just wanted to apologize , we were just having fun. I mean girls throw themselves at us all the time we assumed you were the same."
"Its OK no harm done, well not to me. I'm sorry you got hurt."
"We deserved it, just make sure you tell the beta we apologized."
"I will."
"See you around."
"Bye."
I decided to look for Sandra, I was bored and needed something to do. I found her in the kitchen cleaning the counter.
"Hey."
"Misty! Where have you been?"
"I went to see Mrs Keaton."
"How is she?"
"She's fine she'll be home in a few days."
As I was going to pour the rest of my juice out I was too busy talking to Sandra that I didn't see the two people coming in. I ran into them spilling my red juice all over someone. I looked to see Kay and another girl, I'm guessing her sister. They looked just alike only the other girl looked meaner.
"He's picking me up in a few! You i***t! Now my dress is ruined!" She yelled.
"I’m sorry." I apologized.
"Don’t worry about that loser. Beta Kevin will be here and you need to get changed."
"You're right I’ve waited weeks for this date and no one is going to ruin it." She glared at me before leaving.
She has a date with Kevin! My mate! I growled then blushed hoping no one noticed. I was already acting like a jealous mate!
That’s because you are.
Oh shut up!
She’s having a date with my mate. He's meant for me, no one else. You don’t want a mate remember. I reminded myself. Yeah I don’t want a mate! Then why does him going out with someone else hurt so much?
