Chapter 6
When we first entered my room, I was so nervous and excited at the same time. As he started to undress me and himself, I felt even more nervous and self-conscious. I had never willingly been naked in front of a man.
Gem and the bond was helping a bit to settle down my nerves and Sirius was acting so caring and the way he looked at me as if I was the most beautiful woman in the world made my knees weak and helped me to gain some confidence.
The sparks all over my body as he started to worship it was like nothing I had ever felt before as he went down on me and gave me my first proper orgasm. The whole atmosphere changed as he first sunk into me, I have no idea what was happening and why he changed from a kind and gentle lover, to start thrusting into me roughly all pleasure disappeared in that moment and left me hurt and confused with what was going on.
“He’s a King. Remember his beast is strong, he might have just gotten carried away with the bond” Gem whispers to me, trying to understand his behaviour.
I know she wants her mate, and I would love to believe what she is saying, but it feels like something else, I am sure I can feel the anger radiating off of him. I am not sure what has changed to turn him into this other version.
As soon as he is finished, I unfortunately discover the problem. As he throws on his clothes, he makes it quite clear he thought I was a virgin and he was angry that I wasn’t and he felt cheated by it. He obviously has no clue who I am, but even so, as my mate, I thought he would act better than this.
For starters, there is no bigger wh.ore on Elysium than him, and he didn’t even bother to hear me out or ask even one bloody question before jumping to his conclusions. It took a lot for me to let someone be intimate with me after what had happened. If he wasn’t my mate, I would not have touched him.
I make sure he leaves my room as quickly as possible, and he walks away without even a glance at me as the door closes. I go straight into the shower as I feel disgusted with him and myself. As I scrub his touch off of me, I link Henry to say I am leaving for the camp in half an hour, so that they do not worry about me.
As I make my way to the front of the castle, Henry and the guys are there with the car and their bags packe, ready to leave with me. I know that they will always be there for me, and I really appreciate them being here for me.
I wait until we are almost home before I tell them what happened. To say they were pi.ssed off would be an understatement. I knew I made the right choice, waiting to tell them. They look ready to hunt him down and make him pay for hurting me. I do not care about that. I just want to be able to stay away from him, and him not knowing who I am, I am safe here away from him.
I just left and did not even say anything to Rayne, I quickly sent her a message to let her know that something had come up and me and the team needed to head away early, so she knows where I am and so she doesn’t worry about me when I am not there at breakfast.
When I woke up in the morning, the hurt and upset were gone, and all that was left was anger, and I was pretty fu.cking angry. Gem was right there with me. She was still feeling the pain of our mate rejecting us even if he didn’t do it officially. It still felt painful the way he disregarded our bond and us for his own fu.cked up views.
Gem was coming around to the idea of rejecting him, but she felt too weak and not ready to break the bond just yet. So, I guess I will give her the time she needs to gain her strength and courage for us to face our mate. All I feel at the moment is that the mate bond is awful as far as I am concerned at the moment is fu.ck the mate bond, they can go and shove it right up their a.ss.
Like usual, I decided to throw myself into training to help build myself and my strength right up again. I needed to make sure that I kept my strength even if I felt weaker through Gem and her pain. If I can not make up for the lessor strength, I will not be able to do my job properly.
So I forced myself to eat and train as much as possible as I became the strong one for us both, and Gem could get her chance to recover. There is no way I will let him affect all areas of my life, I will not let him break us and take anything else away from me.
The guys have been great. They know I don’t want to talk about it, I have told them what happened, and they know not to bring it up again. They know me well enough to know that training and work is my medicine to help when things feel like they are coming apart. It helps me to focus and work through my emotions in a more constructive way.
So I train twice as hard as usual, despite the fact that I get tired more easily and it has started to affect my strength, until I can finally feel my strength start to build up again. Henry requested that we do not get sent to the West dragon kingdom. He did not give Mack a reason yet, waiting for me to be ready to tell him myself.
Mack knows we would not ask if we did not have a good reason, so he was happy not to send us there and wait until we told him the reason for it. I managed to get some medicine to take if my heat set in, I only need to start taking it when my first heat hits me then I will be on it until I reject him and remove the bond so it stops sending my body haywire.
A month passed by really quickly as I trained and went on a few missions, it was at that time that I realised that those little pills to stop my heat had not been needed and that it hadn’t come. I know we are still connected. Gem can feel the pull and the pain from being apart. We have even felt slight pain a couple of times when he has done something with another.
The pain was always brief and not very intense, so I knew he had not gone very far with whoever it was. I have no idea if it was him or Blaze that stopped it from going any further. Not that it matters so much anyway, not after the way he acted, he made his feelings more than clear about me.
I just have to hope that Gem feels strong enough to break the bond soon, and then we can both be free of each other. My heat not coming is starting to worry me slightly, so I decide that I should have a word with the doctor and see what he has to say on the subject. Gem is being surprisingly quiet about it all, but I feel like she knows something.
When I get to the doctors, I tell him my concerns, and he asks me several questions. A large amount of them are about my mate and his position and power. I see no need to keep it secret, I know the doctor would never break my confidence. In the end, he sends me to pee in a cup and let’s me know he will be back shortly.
He looks happy when he walks back in but also nervous. I am not sure what he has found out, but at least he is acting like it is not some serious issue that is wrong with me. So that puts me slightly at ease, for now, well, that is until he spoke.
“Sienna, I have done the test, and what I suspected it to be is correct. You, my dear, are pregnant, now I can give you a scan to see how the little one is doing if you would like. With it being a hybrid, we will have to keep an eye on the little ones' progress. I will also take some blood to check that everything is fine within yourself” he says kindly.
“I see. Well, just do whatever you think is necessary” I say, shocked. Well fu.ck I had not even thought about that.
I get the blood taken and lie on the bed for my scan. It feels totally surreal as I hear my child’s heartbeat. He confirms that it was when I met my mate I conceived. Well, it is not like it could be from any other time. He is the only one I have been intimate with since my rescue.
Everything looks good with the child it is right where it should be in terms of size and development. He also gives me my options if I don’t want to keep the pup. Gem hates the thought, and now, after hearing its heartbeat, I know I could never do that. I already love the little pup inside me.
It also means that I can not reject him yet as it could hurt the pup being so early in the pregnancy. I also have my invite for Rayne’s coronation in a couple of weeks' time. I had hoped that I would be strong enough to reject him there, but now I know I can not face him yet.
I call Rayne the day before everyone is set to arrive and explain the situation, I know she is angry on my behalf and is there to support in any way I need. She is sad she won’t be able to see me , but knows I am making the right move for me. I also admitted to my team about the pregnancy and told Mack the full story,
I need to lessen my training and I will not be allowed to go on any jobs as they don’t want to risk the pup, but at least I still have my home and family to support me, Mack is happy for me to stay here and to keep me protected.
