Chapter 3 The rays of the scorching sun pierced my face as I woke up. I was weak and my eyes were heavy but I was somewhere strange,not on Ethan's bed. "Huh! Where am I?" I muttered as I looked around. I was in an empty room,only the bed I was on was in the room. I looked below my hips as I got the shock of my life. I was naked! I was stark naked and the bed I was on was stained with blood. "What happened?" I muttered as tears welled up my eyes. No,no no,this can't be." I whispered as I tried to remember the events of last night. I felt a banging pain in my head as I tried to remember. Then it came rushing back,I remembered running from Ethan and coming to the inn. Then I bought a drink and……. No!!!!! It can't be I screamed,it hit me. I had a one night stand with a stranger. I lost my virginity to a stranger. Ethan had molested me sexually but he never penetrated me. He always called me dirty and a slut,so he avoided penetration. No!!!! I screamed. How could this happen? How? I wondered I had questions in my mind that needed answers but no one to answer them. Why must I go through so much pain? Why? I finally got a chance to escape from Ethan,with the hope of starting a new life faraway. But here I was in a strange bed after mating with a stranger. Streams of tears trickled down my face as I thought,I couldn't stop them so I allowed them to flow freely. My heart was shattered at this point. I felt worthless,I felt useless. Like a piece of trash. Why does the moon goddess hate me this much? How could she be up there and watch me go through all this pain and torture. I was fed up. I felt like ending it all. "Don't maya." Nia whimpered,I could hear her silent sobs,I knew she pitied me. If only I could shift forms already,maybe I would have been stronger. Maybe Ethan wouldnt have rejected me as his mate. Every wolf was supposed to shift forms once they clocked 18 but I was 20 already and nothing. No mate,no wolf. "I hate you mother," I cursed under my breath as more tears flowed down my cheeks. Suddenly the door forcefully opened revealing my worst nightmare,Ethan. My eyes widened as I stared at the horror in front of me,his eyes were blazing fire as he looked down at me. His folded fist sent chills down my back. I knew I was done for. It was over. *******"************************************* Ethan practically dragged me naked from the inn as I screamed. My screams meant nothing to him as he kept dragging my arms through the mud,amidst the prying eyes of passersby. When we got back to his house,he threw me inside and locked the door behind him. "w***e," he yelled. "You had the guts to run away from me?" He asked,his voice harsh and cold. "I would teach you a lesson you would never forget." And with that he pulled down his trousers,revealing his mighty member. I gulped down an invisible lump as I knew what awaited me. My pelvic area was already in pain due to last night's experience but I couldn't save myself from Ethan's plans. His eyes glinted as he approached me,an evil smile on his face. "Ethan no,please I beg you" I cried,shifting back to avoid him. "Shut up b***h! Just one day away from me and you opened your legs to another man like a w***e?" He barked as he licked his lips,his eyes filled with a burning lust. "Let's make this quick Maya,don't try to resist me,you have nowhere to go,I'm all you got." Then it dawned on me Maybe he was right,nobody wants me afterall. I resigned to my fate,until it happened. A sudden figure crashed into the house,breaking the door with his fist as he stared at me. His deep blue eyes were cold and mean,he had long curly hair which was dripping wet,making a part of it cover his face. He was tall and muscular with a small scar on his forehead. Ethan was on the floor beside me as he shivered,his hands were shaking as fear took over him. Who could this be? I wondered. A man capable of making the almighty Ethan panic is no ordinary wolf then. "Lycan…..King?" Ethan asked as his lips trembled. "I'm here to take my mate," he muttered,his cold gaze still on me. His expression was hardened and his eyes felt empty. "Your.. mate?" Ethan stammered as he looked at me,his face twisted in disgust. Wait a minute! What is going on? I wondered Me? Mate? To a Lycan king? All these thoughts ran through my mind simultaneously as I stared at the so-called Lycan King. "I'm taking her with me,do you have a problem with that?" The lycan king asked,his voice gentle but harsh. "No...not at all,you can have her," Ethan stammered. Wtf! My eyes widened in shock. Just like that? Ethan let me go? Who is this Lycan King that Ethan is so scared of? "Get your things and meet me outside," the lycan King muttered while looking at me as he stepped out. Everything happened so quickly,as I wore a worn out gown and grabbed some clothes. Ethan was still in shock. He was still trembling as he watched me leave but he couldn't say a word. "Come on," the Lycan king said immediately as I went out. He was on a horse,a white mustang. "Help me up," I said,stretching my hand. He helped me up,without sparing me a glance as the horse galloped away. ************************************************ It's been two weeks since I began staying with the Lycan King as his mate. Two weeks of loneliness. I flashed back to the moment I had asked for his name when I first came. "Call me Allan," he had replied,his face twisted in his usual cold and mean expression. "Why don't you smile?" I asked again, smiling. "I forgot how to smile,enough with the questions," he had answered as he went out. Now that I think about it,he was actually right after all,he barely smiled. He was always putting on a cold and mean expression. As I lay on the bed going through my thoughts,I felt a sudden urge to vomit hit me. I rushed outside as I poured out the content. I felt weak and drowsy. Am I sick? I wondered As I was still lost in my thoughts,the door creaked open as Allan came in. He was dressed in a black coat with black shoes,his dark hair was styled properly this time,adding to his beauty. "Are you ok?" He asked,his voice gentle but cold as he came closer,staring into my eyes. I felt uncomfortable at the closeness between our bodies,it was the first time we were this close before. "You are pregnant Maya!" He blurted. "Huh! What do you mean?" I asked,my eyes widened in shock. How could I be pregnant? "You are a week pregnant Maya," he replied,his gaze lingering on me. My world came crashing down as realization hit me. I had a reckless one night stand a few weeks back. Could that be the cause? I wondered. That was my first and last experience with s*x,that must surely be the cause. The fact that I had no idea who was likely the cause of my pregnancy struck me. I'm fatherless and my unborn child might also grow up to be fatherless. I couldn't take it any longer as I ran out,to the back,somewhere quiet where I could cry my eyes out and curse my miserable life. *****"****************************************** It has been months since the discovery of my pregnancy hit me. My belly was already protruding and I was due to put to bed anytime soon. Allan has been helpful at least,we barely talk but he makes sure I eat on time and sleep well. Not bad for a mate right? We were not acting as mates yet but the tension between us had died down,at least for now. I was hungry and I craved meat but Allan was nowhere near my reach. After a while of contemplating,I made up my mind to enter his chamber to look for him. I have never been in his chamber before,he was always wary of people going into his chamber but I needed him right now and I cared less. I pushed the small door to his chamber open as it made a creaking sound. Allan was nowhere there but there were piles of papers on the floor. Then I saw something that caught my eyes,it was a sketch of my mother. My brows creased as confusion etched in my heart. How did Allan know my mother? I bent down and to the paper up but a small note fell from it into my hands. As I opened the note to read, it was a text written by Allan: "I regret leaving you that night. Your warm smile has haunted me for 16 years.I wish I didn't run away,maybe I could save you." My eyes widened as it dawned on me. Allan was the boy my mom left me to rescue. The small scar on his forehead? The reason my mom died? Yes,everything was clear to me now. No!!! It can't be" I muttered. I didn't want to believe what I just read,not when I was finally starting to get happy. Why me!! I cried out. I felt a stabbing pain in my chest. Why must my life always end up shattered? I have to leave here,for my safety and that of my unborn babies. I have to leave. As I turned my back to leave,there he was,right in front of me The man I came to hate so much,Allan.
