Reasure you

Chapter 12

Conner pov

I did not want to wake up this morning, i knew if i woke up i would be leaving soon enough, I wouldn't be able to hold my mate in my arms as i slept, i sighed when i opened my eyes, knowing i couldn't pretend to sleep anymore, I will have to go home and pretend that Cindy and i were happy in love, but in the real world, we knew we were’nt in love anymore, I dont think we have been in love for some time now, we were just going through the motions of being a couple, until our true mates came along, I loved her yes, i was deeply in love with her, but i knew once i found my mate, it was all over for us, Throwing me legs over the bed, i went to her bathroom and took a shower, i didn't want to wash her scent off of me, i hated it, but i had to, i had to hide everything from my dad, When i was done washing, i turned the water off dried off and got dressed, I could smell bacon and eggs cooking, so i walked into the kitchen and asked if i could help with anything,

“No, im almost done, you can set the table if you like, we will need four plates and glasses, Cindy and Helm is coming over to eat breakfast before he goes on his shift today,” She points to the right cabinet where the plates and glasses were, i took them out and put them around the table, then put the silverware beside the plates, this is how my mom showed me how to do it, I took out the orange juice and milk and placed them on the table, Soon there was a knock on the door, i went to answer it, why not, i felt like i was home, I opened the door and welcome them inside,

“Hey Helm, Hey Cindy, come on inn, breakfast is almost done,: i shook his hand and he shook mine back, i looked at Cindy, she looked at me,

“Hey, don't look so sad Cindy okay, we both knew we were going to find our mates, i know we have to leave today, but we will be back okay,” she nodded and hugged me, then let go,

“i know, i just don't want to leave, but i know we have to, i belong here Conner, with Helm, i hate to leave, but we need to keep everyone safe,”

“I agree, lets go eat breakfast im hungry,: we all went into the kitchen and sat down, the food was already on our plates, Mariah was sitting and waiting on us, she looked over at Cindy, then at Helms neck, She leaned her neck to the side so Cindy could see that i had marked her, i held onto her hand, to reassure her, that everything is going to be okay, I noticed Helms marking spot, She had marked him as well, so it's true, we really did find our mates, Then Cindy faced the elephant that was in the room, because no one was talking about anything,

“Mariah, she raised her head up with a c****d eyebrow looking at her, I don't want to start on the wrong foot here, But I want to reassure you, that Conner and I are no longer mates, Helm is my true mate, i do care for Conner, but not in the way that i used to, I have Helm now, so please don't think we are up to no good when we go back home. We need to keep everyone safe until this whole thing is over and done with, i could tell that Mariah was thinking hard on what to say to not offend Cindy, but all in honesty, Cindy should not had said anything, but Mariah wasn't right to show her mark either, so here we go a small cat fight, Helm and I both rolled our eyes, we knew what was going to happen, and here it goes,

Cindy, I do not know why you think you have to reassure me on this, i showed you my mark because i wanted you to know, i see you as no threat to me at all, You do not need to reassure me of anything, i trust Conner, i know he is not going anywhere sweet heart, i had you here to eat breakfast so you would know no hard feelings, i think Helm is the one that needs to be reassured that you will be loyal to him, not me,” I knew i wasn't going to say one thing, she had said it all, she trust me, and i wasn’t about to break that trust, after that Cindy didn't say anything, she knew she should had just ate and not say anything at all, I just hope she doesn't ruin everything when we get back home,

I knew i should had kept my mouth shut, i knew i should had never said anything, but once she showed me Conners mark on her neck, it sorta pissed me off, for three years he had told me to wait until he was alpha then he would mark me in front of everyone, it only took a night for him to mark her, she showed me on purpose, so I said what i needed to say and so did she, I looked over at Conner he was minding his business and eating his eggs, i knew he didn't want no part of what just went down and neither did Helm, Helm was a good man, i can tell, i know he will do whatever he could to protect me, but i can handle my own fights, Noone didn't talk after that conversation, we just ate in silence, soon it was time to go, I helped Mariah with the dishes, and helped clean the kitchen, soon we had our bags packed and had to leave, i hated this moment, i hated to leave my mate behind. I wanted so badly to have him come with me, but he couldn't, not yet. i know as soon as this was over, i will be able to be with him, until then i have to play house with Conner, sighing, Helm walked me to the truck, i didn't want to get in, i knew once i was inside that truck we would be driving away, I knew I couldn't put it off any longer. I held onto him like my life depended on it. He softly kissed me,

"I will see you soon, okay. You will come back with Conner, I will be holding you again."

"Is that a promise?"

"Yes, that's a promise." he held onto my waist and lifted me up into the truck. Conner was with Mariah on the other side. I held onto Helms hand until we drove away.

I hated leaving but I knew if we didn't head back and kept stalling my dad would either mindlink me or call me. Telling me to get my a$$ back home. I hugged Mariah softly kissing her, looking into her beautiful eyes. I told her.

"I'll be back okay. I promise I will. Nothing and no one will stand in my way to see you again. You are my whole world Mariah,"

"you better come back. You are also my whole world. I'm not sure what I'm going to do until I see you again."

"You're going to train, that's what you're going to do. You're going to get stronger and train everyday. You're going to keep being the head warrior okay." I kissed her again and gave her a cell phone. It had my number inside of it

"Keep this. So I can call you. If you need to call me. It has my number inside of it. Anytime during the day or night. I will answer it." I moved away so I could get into the truck. I didn't want to leave. But if I didn't start it and drive off. I wouldn't have, I drove off looking in my rearview mirror at her. Until I couldn't see her anymore. I heard Cindy crying. I held her hand and squeezed it gently.

"Listen, we will come back. We have to go through the movements okay. Just go ahead pack two of your bags. Place them in my truck. You won't be back here next time. You will stay there. I'll think of something to tell dad once I am back."

"She nodded, then we stayed silent the rest of the drive back.

I was pacing back and forth, Conny was telling me to calm down. Or I would walk a hole in the carpet. I told her to go to her room so no one would be able to see her. Not even Conner. She nodded. And left. That Fu;King witch never got back with me. I think she either got killed, or she ran off with the money I gave her to do some spying for me. I finally set back down in my chair tapping my fingers on the desk. I needed to know if Conner is really engaged. If he is all would be set. We would have to wait until she is eighteen and then get married. Then the year will come. Conner will get rid of her. The family will be weak and I can destroy them and take the pack away. He doesn't really have to wait a year. I just want him to, so I could torture his love for Cindy. I will torture this girl if he decides to try and betray me, and if she tries to pull anything, I have her sister, she thinks I love her, but i really don’t, She’s good for a good run in the bed, but thats it, i have thought that i loved her, but if i did i would had marked her already, the truth is, she is just a good spy, she does what i tell her because she knows if she doesnt she won't be fed, she wont see food for three days, and she knows this, I poured me a glass of whisky then set back down, i finally heard from one of the guards that Conner is heading up to the house, it's about da^mn time, where the h3ll has he been? He should had been back an hour ago,

We were almost back on pack grounds, I had to pull over to take a breather, i had to get my thoughts in place before dad sees me and wanted to know everything, i pulled over on the side of the road shutting off the truck, Cindy looked at me concern, She knew i didn't want to go back to the pack house,

“Conner, We can still run away, we have some of our clothes, we can just keep on driving and not turn back. We could hide the rest of our lives, we can take our mates and run" I knew she meant well, but I knew he would catch up to us and destroy us. We couldn't just run away, we can’t hide, I just don't know what to do, So I just sighed and laid my head on the steering wheel for a moment. Tears came down my eyes. I felt her hand on my shoulder. I remember her touch could comfort me. But it doesn't anymore. I gently removed her hand. Then I looked up at her. I cleaned my face off,

"Listen, I meant what I said. When we get home, pack two of your bags and put them in the truck. The mating ball is in two weeks right. So here's what I'm thinking. We will wait for three days. Then I will tell dad. We have to go back to save face here. We have to keep up with the plan. If we don't go back then it would look weird. You and I will be the happy couple. We will have to pretend in front of him. I will come over and i'll just stay the night. That way he won't think anything is off. Everything will be okay. I promise Cindy. We will see our mates in a few days." this time she was crying. I took my thumb to clean a tear away from her face. Reaching over I kissed her forehead,

"Conner, all I want is all this to be over and done with. I want to be with Helm. I know now how it feels. The sparks, the not wanting to get away from them. The always wanting to be there, wanting to help him. Just like we were. But we didn't feel that way did we? We never felt the sparks. We just wanted to have someone so we wouldn't want to feel alone," I knew she was right. I never felt those sparks with her. I just didn't want to be alone. I did love her at one time. And I still care deeply for her. She was my mate for three years of course I'm going to still care for her.

"Come on, I know he's waiting for us. Clean your face. I don't want him to see that you have been crying. Everything is going to be ok I promise. We'll go back in a few days. I'll think of something to say to him once I'm back okay.?" she nodded. I started the truck back up, got back on the road and headed toward home. She held onto my arm then my leg. I knew what she was doing. She was trying to put her scent on me. He will know for sure something is up if he doesn't smell her on me. I put my arm around her doing the same. Once home. The guards opened the gate for us. I knew he would link dad letting him know we were home, so we drove up to the pack house. Parked and got out. I came around the truck. And held her hands.

"We can do this Cindy okay. Everything will be fine. Go home, pack your bags i'll be there shortly okay." she nodded and kissed my cheek. She lingered just a moment. Ran over to do what I asked her to do, I held my head up as I walked up the stairs to the house. I found him in his office as always. He was standing there with his arms crossed over his chest waiting for me to walk inside the room,

"Well, how did it go? Did you mate and mark her?" I chuckled softly walking over to a chair and sat down. I didn't answer right away. He walked over and sat down in front of me.

"Answer the question, did you mate and mark?"

"No dad, we didn't. She wants to wait until she is eighteen and married to me. But that will change, trust me it will. I will put on the charm, she won't be able to say no to me. We are going back in a few days. That's when I will mate and mark her. and she will mark me, that will be our engagement, her dad already knows or thinks he knows I'm in love. But you know I'm in love with Cindy, so you need to leave her alone. She will be coming with me, she isn't marked yet. So she won't feel me having s*x with Alyssa. So just don't say anything okay." he nods. Took out a cigar, bit something off of it and then lit it.

"as long as you're doing what I'm telling you to do. She will be fine. Why does she have to come with you?" smirking, I told him.

"They think she is my sister. They want her to come back and hang out with Alyssa. Trust me she hates it, she wants to rip her throat out. But she's dealing with it. She knows she's not marked yet, so she will have to listen and not start any trouble."

"Good, you can mark her after you get rid of his daughter, she will deserve to be luna after this, I know you want to spend time with her. So go ahead, but be here in the morning, so I can give you more details on what to do,"

"I'll be here," I got up, grabbed a cigar and left. I didnt even smoke these things, I just wanted to see the look on his face.
