Royal Guard Pitch I was just patrolling the grounds when I started smelling this scent, I knew it wasn't rogue because it would have smelled of spoiled milk, skunk, and rotten eggs. i mean they smell really badly, I told the guards that someone is here, but it's not a rogue, When we found her, i pointed a gun right at her face, asking her Why she is here, she told me what was going I..Im…imm… sorry, i'm running from someone that i am suppose to get married to in order to pay off my fathers debts, not to mention i'm running from my family as well, i don;t want them to find me here, so im looking for a place to hide, if you let me go i will get off this land as fast as i can, I promise you will never see me again. I told the guards to stand down, Nodding I understood her fear. I had heard from the royals that there might be someone running toward us soon, I heard of someone who was running from something, and the king had told us to keep a look out for them. Come on, they are waiting for you. don’t worry, they will protect you, mate.” Did he just say mate. i saw her freighten face when i had called her mate, for a second i thought about saying yes sure we are mates, but the look on her face made me think different, so i decided to tell her the reason why i called her mate. But she ended up speaking to me first, she talked in a scared voice like she was scared to even speak to me, i wondered why she was like this, ““i’m sorry, did you just say mate?” ‘Not as mate as in your my mate. i say mate to everyone, its like another word for friend, sorry to confuse you, but i already have a mate, she's waiting for me at home, she's a warrior here, so I rather not get my ass beat by bringing home another female, if we were mates, i would have to reject you, i only want one mate, i can barely handle her,” i heard the other guards laugh, they knew what i was talking about, My mate can fly off the handle when it comes to war, i saw her once rip a rogues throat right out of him, i rather keep my life as long as possible, ‘Come on we are almost there, You see the top of the castle, we are only twenty minutes away now.`` We hurried so that twenty minutes went pretty quickly, she didn’t say another word until we got to the kingdom, she was looking around, my guess a way to escape if she had to, I knew this girl was scared, i saw bruises on her arms and legs, it made me wonder who the heck could do this to this woman, maybe when i get home, i will talk to my wife and see if she could train her to defend herself, that way of anyone ever tries to land a hand on her again, she could fight back, I bet the queen is going to be pissed when she sees the bruises on this girl, When we got up to the kingdom, Mollie and Erick was standing up on the steps, Mollie seen her first she hurried down to greet her, “Oh, goodness, i hope Pitch didn’t scare you to much honey, he can be a handful sometimes,” i saw her look at this girl, i knew she could see the bruising on her arms and legs, her eyes went wide, then turned to the king, “Erick if you can excuse us, i need to speak with this girl,” she took her hand leading her inside, i knew then Mollie is going go off at any second now, “Mollie pov When Pitch linked us telling us that they found the girl that the cab driver told us about, i was overjoyed, because now she can be safe, but once she was here i saw bruises on her, this better not be because of Pitch in his crew, i grabbed her hand leading her inside, i took her up to one of the rooms that she will be staying and sleeping, “Honey, i'm only going to ask you once. Please do not lie to me. who put those bruises on you, and where else do you have them,” she was trembling as he held her head down in shame, what did they do to this girl, “Honey, never look down like that, always hold your head high, you have done nothing wrong,’ I heard her sigh, then she started speaking, “Ma’am, i have them everywhere, my father used to beat me even if i did the slightest thing wrong, if i cooked something he didn’t like, if i got up to late, you name he beat me,” “my dear, let me see. i have something that can take those brusies away,” she shook her head “Ma'am please, i'm embarrassed,” i don't know why but i calmly walked over to her putting my arms around this girl, i hugged her like a mother should, then i softly spoke to her, “Sweetheart, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, no one else will see i give you my word,” she nodded then turned her back to me, she took her shirt off showing me her back, I let out a gasp, on her back were many cuts, even a word that was carved into her back, The word w***e! on her lower back was even worse, so many cuts, i'm surprised she wasn’t bleeding out. This poor girl has been through so much, “Honey, is there anything else I need to see?” tears started falling down on her face as she sat down taking off her jeans, i gasp again when i saw the marks on her legs, i linked a nurse right away, saying no men up here just women, The nurse will know why when she comes into the room, i linked my husband and told him some of it, we heard a loud growl that shook the castle, Tasha got scared i felt her shaking, i held onto her, and told her, “shhh,,, its just my husband, i told him what happened to you, hes not to happy, so if your father tries to come and find you, he wont be leaving a live, Erick will not hurt you okay,’ “But what about my mate. i don’t really know him. but i've heard so much, and i don't want to leave with him.” “Shhh, he doesn’t even have to know you're here. Everything will be okay, so if you don’t want him to know you're here, we will handle that okay,
