SCARS OF BETRAYAL

Attempting to get away

TOMAS’S POV

I had never thought that I could have so much fun with Miranda, she had stopped fighting me a little bit and I hoped that was a sign that she was getting used to our new rules and setup. I had to be careful in keeping this secret from Cindy because I knew she would see my intimacy with Miranda as a threat to our relationship.

I wasn’t going to lie and say that being intimate with my so-called mate didn’t make me feel some type of way because it did. It made me feel things that I never thought I was capable of feeling for Miranda, it made me see her in a different light and it was like I was admitting she was a woman for the first time. I was expecting her to appreciate that I was finally opening up to her, but she didn’t. She acted like she didn’t want me although I saw the way she looked at me when she thought I wasn’t watching. There was no way anyone could call what I was doing with her molesting when she had been practically begging me to bed her ever since I brought her here and now she was playing hard to get.

After a whole night of nonstop f*****g I needed a rest, I needed to spend the whole day indoors before welcoming Cindy back. She had told me that she would be returning back home by sunset.

I knew Cindy’s presence would make it harder for me to continue what I had started doing with Miranda but surely I was going to be able to keep my distance from her. I just hoped that I hadn’t made a mistake by touching her and I hoped I hadn’t strengthened our mate bond by doing so.

MIRANDA’S POV

The effects of our sleepless night had different effects for both of us and he woke up pleased and proud of himself while I woke up feeling like trash and nothing more than a slut who had no respect for her body. Before he left in the morning he had told me that his visits to me would be limited because Cindy was coming but I couldn’t care less. I was just happy that Cindy was back to cater to the needs of her so-called mate and although I was happy that she was back and she would take him off my hands and keep him busy for a long time, I was also a little saddened by the thought of what I was going to be missing and how he was going to be giving it to her.

I was woken up by the omega that had come to serve me some dinner and she told me that she was now going to be the one who would serve me my meals. It was happening as I had expected and it was at this point that I decided to come up with an escape plan. I could no longer stay here as a prisoner hoping things would get better for me while they only got worse, I had to get out and it was now or never.

I remembered that there were fewer guards during the night than they were during the day, I decided I would make a run for it once everyone fell asleep and my prayer was that I got out without getting caught.

After having my dinner and after the Omega left with the dirty plates I pretended to be asleep. I had boldly asked the omega if Cindy was around and she told me she had left for the night. I hoped that meant that Tomas was sleeping and tired.

At midnight, I peeked through the keyhole to see if there was anyone outside my door and luckily I saw no one, I figured the fact that I had no shoes on would make it easier for me to sneak out undetected. After I picked the lock with a hairpin that I had stolen from the Omega I sneaked out careful not to make a sound. I didn’t even bother closing the door because I knew the door would make a sound.

I started sneaking through the corridor and I made sure to be extra careful when I passed Tomas’s room because I couldn’t afford to get caught.

When I was finally out of the mansion I hid behind a tree hoping that I was still safe but I realized a little too late that someone was behind me. Tomas covered my mouth and dragged me back inside and into his room.

“What the f**k do you think you are doing?” he asked me as soon as he locked his door

“I refuse to be kept here as a prisoner any longer” I shot back and he slapped me right across the face

“How dare you talk back at me?” he asked his eyes blazing with anger

“Tomas just let me go, please... I don’t want to stay here with you. I won’t tell anyone that you are my mate I promise and I won't tell anyone you were keeping me here against my will” I begged and that seemed to infuriate him even further.

He started punching me on my face as hard and he could and I could feel my eye swell up and the blood oozing from my broken nose. I knew the evil I saw in his eyes would haunt me forever as he continued punching me until I was steps away from the grave.

"You are never leaving me Miranda do you hear me...ever" he shouted at the top of his lungs and I could feel the vibrations of his voice through the room.

He didn't want me, so why didn't he want me to leave, why didn't he want me to be free. He only saw me as something that was only good for s*x and as much as I enjoyed the s*x and I hated myself for even enjoying it, I just didn't enjoy being used like that.
