Getting out of this town.
Chapter 1
Mollie pov
I finally made it to this small town of Bluefield, West Virginia. I'm not sure how long it took me to get here, but I got here. I was really glad I traded in my motorcycle for my range rover jeep, it rained most of the time on the way here. I wasn't even sure what made me stop here, maybe my exhaustion from driving for twenty-five or more hours. But I just couldn't go on any further. I stopped at the first hotel I found. Parked my jeep and headed inside. When I got into the place it looked really cute. They had tall plants in the corners. A few chairs and a couple of light brown couches. Even a breakfast bar. Damn I didn't realise I was hungry until my stomach growled. The lady behind the counter looked up smiling. She had long brown hair, light hazel eyes. She stood about 5,9 and looked to be in her mid twenties.
"Dear, you scared the heck out of me. I thought you were growling, but that was your stomach. Why don't you get something to eat then come back and get your room."
I nodded, smiling at her. I didn't have to be told twice. I grabbed a couple of blueberry muffins, toast, and some orange juice with a side of milk. I was thirsty as well. I ate and drank then walked back over to the desk.
"I want to thank you for letting me eat first. I guess all the driving I have done I forgot to eat on the way."
"That's fine honey, so what is a lone wolf like yourself doing all the way here in this little town?"
I didn't know what it was, but I felt like I could talk to this girl. I told her all about my human ex and what he had done. Then I told her what I did. She laughed when I told her about me hitting him breaking his nose.
"Well honey, if you're looking for a job and a place to live, I have a small cottage in the back. You can fix it up anyway you want. And you can work here cleaning the rooms, you can pay three hundred dollars every month and get paid 14.50 an hour. That way you can save up as well."
I couldn't believe it. I got a place and a job all in the same night.
"I'll take both. But if you don't mind. I'll pay for a room for tonight so I can get some rest. And I'll start tomorrow."
"That's fine sweetheart, You can start in two days. We're having a party here in a few weeks. Maybe you can help with it and Join in on the fun."
"I just might, but you see I left with nothing but only the clothes on my back, so I'll have to do some shopping. Don't worry I have some money, I'll go find a place to shop when I rest up."
She let me have a room for free. And told me her name was Tabby. The room had a very nice king size bed, a bathroom and a little flat-screen on top of the dresser. I didn't mind, I wasn't planning on watching anything tonight, I grabbed the small bag out of my jeep then walked back into the room. Took a nice long hot shower, put the robe they had hanging up on, then laid down, it didn't take me long to fall asleep. I knew I was exhausted. I didn't have any dreams that night. But the next morning I woke up wide awake with someone knocking on the door,
I hurried to get dressed putting my hair in a messy bun, then went to answer the door. To my surprise it was the woman from the office. Her name if I can remember is Tabby. She seemed nice. But I didn't think she was allowed to come and talk to others while she was at work. But I stepped aside to let her inside my room.
"Hey sleepy head. I was thinking I could show you the house out back. And if you want. We could go shopping if you're up for it?"
I was a little confused. And I know myself very well. I'm a little outspoken. And very honest. So I decided to ask her what was already in my head.
"Tabby. I'm sure your boss would be upset with you if you're not at work. I'm not trying to be mean or anything. I just don't want them to be upset with you and you end up getting into trouble."
yeah, I was a little grumpy because I was still tired. I hoped I didn't offend her or anything. She was laughing and I couldn't help but smile.
"Mollie girl. I am the boss. I own this hotel. I have two people at the front desk. And a few are already cleaning the rooms. So I'm free."
Shaking my head. I feel stupid now. I should have known. Like I said, I was still a little tired from driving for so long. But she seemed excited to show me around town so I went to the bathroom and took out a pair of jeans and a shirt with new underwear and bra and put them on. Thank goodness I stopped and bought them. I didn't want to put my dirty ones back on. I slipped on my shoes and walked out of the bathroom.
"Alright I'm ready, let's head out. I would love to see the house first, Then we can go shopping for the things I need."
she nodded as she walked behind the hotel and I was a little shocked to see how big the land was. It was really beautiful. She had a flower garden on one side. And a small little vegetable garden on the other side.
"Sorry about that. I love to garden. Besides, if I want fresh veggies. All I have to do is come back here and grab a few things.. It's better than going to the store." Come on, we still need to take a look at the house.

It has been a very long, exhausting day. I had so many meetings it was driving me nuts. All I wanted was to be home so I could relax in my own chair. Maybe a glass of Brandy or Whisky or some sort of drink. Even a cigar will do. But I didn't have any at the moment. Some Jackass decided he wanted to challenge my decision. I had to strip an alpha from his title because he was cheating on his mate. Then he decided to hide her because he was beating her. Well I showed him what it felt like to be beat. I kicked his ass until he pleaded for me to stop. I had to make him understand. Hitting women makes him look like a coward. You should never beat your mate. If you did not want her anymore. Reject her and look for your second chance. I stripped him from his title and put his twenty one year old son as the alpha. I also told him if I heard of him hitting any woman at all. He will be killed. No chances to live, you will die the same as your father if I find out if he does it again. His beta decided he wanted to challenge me. Well just say his head is across the field right now. I don't play nice with others. I never have, that's the reason why no one lives in half my castle. I have a few maids. cooks I have my best friend and his mate, my sister and a few others that live around the castle but that's about it. My sister Rebecca keeps telling me I needed to find a mate so I could keep my throne. I only roll my eyes. And tell her. I have ten more years for that. Right now I am just having my fun.
"Besides sis. If I have a mate. How would I have my fun at the annual matting ball coming up in a few weeks." she rolled her eyes back at me. And said to me.
"You will find her and she might just reject you, Erick For being such a damn playboy. And it's not just ten years you dumbass. That ten years is almost up. You have two years to find her. You know what the elders had said. Find your mate or step down."
huh? what. It's been that long already. My wolf was growing at my sister. I told him to calm his ass down. That's my sister he was growling at.
"I'm not growling at her. I'm growling at you dummy. You're sleeping around with these sluts. When you could be out trying to find our mate. You will be lucky if she doesn't reject us when she meets us."
"Damn, fine, At the annual mating ball. I will look for her. But I will have a mask on. I do not want her to know who I am or what I am until we get to know each other that night. I don't want any power hungry bimbo trying to run my home. And destroy everything that I have built. I don't want that s**t around here. I'm actually so sick of these females throwing themselves at me. All they're trying to do is in my kingdom to rule it and tell people what to do. It won't work with me. I'm so damn sick of it. So in a few months or weeks, whichever comes I'll wear a mask. I'll have to tell Tabby to let all the packs know to wear masks. So I'm not the only one wearing the mask. I also will not wear a crown. I hate wearing those fuckers there heavy on my head. I'll give her a call later today. She had told me that a newcomer came to town and she gave her a place to stay. She didn't seem rogue; she was just a lone wolf. I might have to go see who it is just to be sure she's not a rogue spying on my land. When I finally got home. I took a long hot shower, dried off and just put on my boxers. I didn't think I left my door unlocked but I guess I did, because someone was in my bed. I rolled my eyes. It was none other than Trina, she was always trying to get me to mark her. But the way she had that sheet covering her body just made me hard as a rock, her n*****s were hard and damn pleasingly to look at. f**k it why not, I can always kick her out when I'm done. Pulling off my boxers I hopped into bed. She smirked at me.
"And what does my king want tonight?"
I didn't say s**t. I got on top of her and rode her like a bull. Her breasts were bouncing hard. I leaned down to suck on them, I heard her moan my name, her nails scratching my back. I knew I would have marks but they will heal, she kept saying. , "just like that.oh my king fuk me hard! I swear she screams like this because she thinks I like it. f**k If your going to moan then moan. If it feels good, tell me. or just shut the f**k up and let me do you so I can get off. When I was finally done, I moved off of her. She turned on her side and asked,
"Eric, when will you mark me and tell the kingdom we are mates? I mean it's been two years of having fun f*****g, it's been great in all. But when will you tell them?"
I couldn't help but look at her like she was crazy. Then finally told her.
"Listen Trina, I'm not trying to hurt your feelings, it has been great in all, you're a good lay, but we're not mates, I'm not going to mark you or tell the kingdom we are. That would be a lie. And I do not lie, you know this, you should have figured it out, if I didn't mark you by now, I never will. My mom always said, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free."
I guess she understood what I meant because she slapped the s**t out of me, got out of my bed got dressed, and left slamming my door, I couldn't help but chuckle because she will be back in my bed in a few days, but next time i'll just toss her out, I don't have time for things like that anymore, if I'm going to find my mate, then I'll just have to start looking for her and it starts at the party, I'm fed up with just one night stands and females that are trying to get marked by me, that's not going to happen.

It was fun. We spent the whole day getting the house ready. We painted the walls. We did it with white paint and blue trimming. It looked cute. The kitchen really wasn't that bad, it had a dining room table, a refrigerator and a stove that actually worked, so that's good because I didn't have to buy anything. The bedroom was pretty big, a nice king size bed even with a flat screen mounted on the wall.Tabby turned it on to make sure it still worked, and thank goodness it did. Even with two huge dressers and a damn huge walk-in closet, the bathroom was a masterpiece because there was nothing wrong with it. A marble sink that looked beautiful. With a nice size mirror, there was a huge shower and a nice size tub. I was loving this already. The living room was comfortable, with two nice size couches and a chair that reclines back. A brown marble coffee table. With a rug underneath it. A fireplace to my left and another flat screen,
"This house belonged to one of my human friends, I tried to talk her into letting me change her, but she always told me no, when she found her mate, she moved out to live with him, He tries to talk her into it as well, but now she says no not right now, it's been five years now and she's gotten where she says she will think about it. That's something at least, so are you ready to go into town and get some food for this place?"
I thought about it for a second, yeah I think I do need to do a little shopping,
"Yeah why not. Let's go clothes shopping first, and then we'll get the food, I left with nothing so I'll be needing clothes."
"Oh and don't forget your going to need a dress for the ball, I want you to be looking fabulous,"
I was laughing at that comment, looking fabulous,
"Alright we can do that as well, come on let's head out we can take my jeep with the top down until we get the shopping done."
"Alright let's go."
We drove with the top-down and the music blaring, we were singing along with the music well trying to. We even saw a few deer on the way, I could have sworn I saw a bear looking right at me. Tabby told me it wasn't a normal bear it was a werebear, I only nodded because I have only known of wolves all my life, I have never heard of a werebear before, but hey to each their own. We got into town, parked the jeep and headed to some clothing shops. And let me tell you this girl can shop until you drop. She had more than I did, and we still had to look for a dress to wear. When we got to a shop that had nothing but dresses in the store, my eyes landed on a off the shoulder black dress that I was dying to try on, I took it off the hanger and went to the fitting room to try it on. When I did I was a little surprised. It fit perfectly. It went just above my knees. And showed off every curve I had. My breasts look good in the dress. It showed just enough but not too much. I loved it, but I decided to buy a few more dresses just in case I found a night club I wanted to go to. All together I bought ten dresses with shoes, jewellery and purses to match and so did Tabby.she showed me the dress she will be wearing, it was light purple with beads going down the middle. With a nice slit on the side of her dress. that wasn't Long but Long enough. We were done shopping for clothes. Now it was time for food.the time we got done, my jeep was filled up to the top, we got home before dark. She helped me unload my stuff and helped put everything away, I did the same with her. I helped get everything inside and put it away. We were both exhausted and didn't want to cook. So we ordered pizza for dinner, pizza and beer. What a treat. Since her house wasn't that far from mine. It was like fifty or so steps away, not that far away at all. I decided to just walk home. The fresh air could do me some good. When I got home I kicked off my shoes and just fell on the couch, I thought about the day I had. I had fun. I wasn't used to hanging out with anyone. Never had that many friends. I might stay here after all. Who knows.
