Chapter 14

Gabi’s P.O.V

  I took a deep breath, remembering how Carla and I first met in the back of that truck. I had been there for a few days before I met Carla. Carla was there due to her parents owing money, but I was there because my father killed one of the auctioneer's guys and he gave me up as p*****t. 

  “As you know Carla and I were auctioned off because of what our parents did or owed, but while Carla was lucky to have you bid and win her, I was bid on and won by Eric. he pulled me into this room and tossed me into the chair, looking me over for a few seconds. I was so scared, too scared to even make a sound, but he just stood there looking at me. After a few seconds he hissed at me and then called me mate, that's when you heard me scream because he suddenly lunged at me. I saw you come into the room to help me when he was draining me, but you got pulled out and I didn’t see you again after that. He said he was going to change me so that I could be his forever. Eric was sweet at first, he would teach me what I could and couldn’t do, showing me how to feed without killing and it was going great. A year went by and he suddenly became a complete asshole, lying to me and thinking I wouldn’t feel anything because of it. He would lie to me about where he was and shortly after that the beatings started. I would catch him out in a lie and he would smack me around, telling me it was my fault. He would make me do things I didn’t want to do, he would lock me up for weeks, starving me and when he let me out he would only feed me what he wanted me to feed on and it wasn’t pleasant. The last time I saw him he was going out to hunt, but he told me that when he got back we would talk about things. He said he was going to let me go, but that's not the first time he had said that and then didn’t. My mate had been out on the hunt for a couple of days and was due to return, which is when I was going to reject him, but then I heard we were going to be getting a new Alpha and I knew that my mate would be killed, so I didn’t bother. I packed up my things and left an hour before the new Alpha showed up. I ran as fast and as far away as I could, never looking back except to make sure I wasn’t followed, which thankfully I wasn’t. I have only heard off one of the clan members, Lizzy and that was to tell me that Eric had been killed by the new Alpha, Alec. After that I blocked the link and well, here I am.” I said, explaining everything to them. Carla looked stunned, while Brandon looked both shocked and angry as he sat there shaking his head. 

  “Gabi, I am so, so sorry that you had to go through all of that. Brandon and I went through a rough patch, but it was nothing compared to yours.” Carla said and she looked like she was still trying to wrap her head around everything, so I knew I needed to get her mind off it.

  “What happened between you two?” I asked, taking them both by surprise.

  “When Brandon and I first met he wasn’t very nice at all and I was made to train to become a fighter. I competed in matches and won, but Brandon was still an asshole who kept bossing me around. He would be nice one second and then infuriating the next, but then I learned his story. I tried to make it work, but it didn’t so I left, which kinda gave him the kick up the ass he needed because he came for me and we talked things through and well, here we are. We still have our arguments, but we never blame each other. I still compete in fights because I found after I left him that all the other jobs were boring compared to fighting.” Carla said and I nodded, happy that she and her mate had worked it out. 

  “Listen, Alpha Alec is on his way here, but I promise that you will not be made to do anything you don't want to and you won’t have to leave with him if you don’t want to. I promise that while you are here you are under my protection. Why don’t you try to get some sleep and when Alpha Alec gets here I can either send him here to talk to you or you can talk to him in my office, whichever you prefer and feel comfortable with.” Alpha Brandon said and I nodded.

  “You can send him here, I don’t think he would be stupid enough to try anything while I’m on your territory. I’ll talk to him and then decide what I’m going to do.” I replied and they both nodded. We talked for a few more minutes before Brandon and Carla got up and left, going back to their home and leaving me to get settled into my new home. I took a look around my new cottage and then went to my bedroom, still unsure if I really wanted to talk to Alpha Alec or not, I thought, sighing as I got into bed.

  “He’s probably just like Eric and will only want me to be part of the clan so that I can clean and clean up his mess. I refuse to be a punching bag for another Alpha, even if this one isn’t my mate, like Eric was.” I said to myself, sighing again as I pulled the blankets over me. For the first time in years I felt at peace. I didn’t feel scared that someone was going to come and drag me out of bed by my hair, just so they could punish me for something I hadn’t done. I closed my eyes and let sleep take me.

  Corl’s P.O.V

  This wasn’t right, none of this was right and it needed to be sorted, they had to be warned and the only way for me to do that was to get Alpha Brandon’s number. I snuck into Amy’s room and took her phone, quickly searching for his number and once I found it I quickly wrote it down on a piece of paper and then placed her phone back where I found it. I left Amy’s room and went straight to my own, closing and locking the door behind me. I took out my phone and dialled the number on the paper, hoping he would answer and let me talk.

  “Listen, I don’t have much time and I know you don’t know me, but someone is coming for you and your family, you're all in danger. You might know her as Amy, your old mate. She’s planning on destroying your family, then taking the Luna crown, killing you and destroying your whole pack. She wants revenge for you killing her mate. You need to be careful, don’t trust her and by the way Priest wants your Luna, he will stop at nothing to grab her and make her fight for him. I have to go, I’ll try and call back later, bye.” I said, speaking quickly and then hanging up before Brandon even had a chance to say anything at all. I hoped this worked, I hoped he believed me and I hope he will heed my warning.
