MY POSSESSIVE MATE

CHAPTER 5: RESCUED

Xelina’s POV

“I am so glad you came back to me, Xel”, the evil man in front of me smirked as he injected the silver poison in my abdomen.

Motherfucker !

He is using wolfsbane !!

“And I hate to breathe the same air as you”, I spat back and got a stinging slap on my cheek in return which honestly didn’t hurt much against my numb nerves.

I had been trained to endure much more intense tortures and now I felt nothing.

My fathers would sometimes joke about me being a zombie but the fact was that although my body didn’t hurt but my heart did because of a certain someone and you pretty well know who that dimwit is.

Only the wolfsbane inside me was kinda hurting me although Dy used to feed me a tiny bit of wolfsbane everyday to make me immune to the deadly poison.

Over the span of 10 years, I had developed certain immunity to Wolfsbane so at the moment only my olfactory senses were blocked temporarily unlike other werewolves or vampires who would start getting dizzy and lose control of almost all their senses.

“I see that your marks are getting lighter immediately. So you have a true mate huh ?”, he smirked and added, “Let’s give him some more pain then”, he whispered and laughed as he lashed my back mercilessly.

I clenched my teeth hard hoping in vain that my mate won’t experience the cruel torture pains if it was true that I had a true mate.

Suddenly, the lashings stopped and the football captain in front of me suddenly burst out laughing barbarically as if a glorious thought had just occurred to him.

“What if I mark you, Xel and let your mate die of rejection”, he suggested shamelessly.

“You won’t dare”, I said through gritted teeth but only got a villainous chuckle in return.

“Oh but I really do look forward to avenging the slap that you so graciously bestowed on me publicly, Xel”, he said in a hoarse voice near my ear.

“You deserved that you pervert”, I cursed.

“Now let’s ask your mate about that, mhmm ?”, he hummed. “He will be the better judge”, the sadist chuckled. “In any case, I would love to mate and mark you in front of everyone amidst your screams and shrieks and then dump this beautiful body of yours in the fire”, he remorselessly continued his beastly narrative.

Such a homicidal freak.

I suddenly felt the wind change its direction as he swung his lash up high for the last time to knock me unconscious before he made his way with me.

I closed my eyes tight shut and clenched my teeth harder as I waited for my impending doom.

Somewhere in my heart I was sad that I won’t be able to find my true mate which was so rare in our race and when I was lucky to be the chosen one, I had foolishly hopped into this stupid trap and was going to die because true mates died together.

I felt so sorry for my unsuspecting mate who would die without knowing the reason just because of my stupidity.

“And what if I snap that ugly head of yours before you even dare to touch her”, a familiar, deep voice rung out in the hall.

What the heck ?

What is he doing here ?

Did I hear right ?

Is it really him ?

Suddenly, I heard yells and screams all over the place and it seemed like that this ghastly cave had been taken by a storm from what I could hear while sitting blindfolded and tied up to my chair with f*****g silver chains.

Gunshots and frantic screams were commonly heard all over the place for the next few minutes and then pin drop silence prevailed.

From the foul stench of the rogues’ blood, I could gather that none of the thugs had been able to escape the wrath of a very pissed off Alpha and those blood thirsty savages deserved the death they got.

After the last of the enemy men fell to his death, I felt his soft hands untie me.

As soon as the blindfold dropped down, I was shocked to see the blood bath in the cave due to the latest rage-erupting battle and what shocked me more were the tear stained, red blood shot eyes that stared back at me.

Did he do all this on his own ?

Is it possible that he loves me afterall ?

But I am so done with him.

I just want to find my true mate after 5 days and that’s it.

“I compel you to forget what you just saw righ-”, he started to say but I slapped him so hard that he staggered back.

“How dare you try to compel me ?”, I seethed in anger and whisked away in fury leaving behind the gory scene behind the waterfall.
