Keeping my head down watching my hands, the words before I ran still in my head. He really believes im his mate, this has to be some sort of sick joke; as if I could be queen, it should be Victoria. Since I was so lost in thoughts I didn't notice the king in front of me until he put his hand on my chin, guiding my eyes to his. And I'm not gonna lie I freaked out, jumping up and before I knew it I was falling. I almost hit the ground but a pair of strong arms grabbed me and I could feel the tingling, assuming he isn't laced with silver what he said must be true but that means that ill have to be a queen, I-i cant im too weak ive been beaten my whole childhood.
Dominic POV
After bringing her back to her hospital room I sat down in the chair beside her bed and got really tired all of a sudden, resulting in me falling asleep in the tiny chair.
I heard rustling and then flat lining and freaked out, then I noticed that she was ok but trying to run from me again.
"Don't even try it..Mate"
Dom don't you think that's a little harsh?
Nows the time you show up roe? Not when our mate jumped out of the window AGAIN!
Dom i cant feel shadow, her wolf
Roe i understand that shadow is your closer half but angelica is still here and we need to make sure she is ok and NOT JUMPING OUT OF ANYMORE WINDOWS!
Your right im sorry dom, you should check on her though, she looks so innocent
As I was about to speak, I decided that speaking probably wasn't the best option now, she was looking down fiddling with her fingers so I put hand under her chin so we would be looking into eachothers eyes but unfortunately she didn't expect it and jumped about a meter off the ground and started falling, she couldn't catch herself so I caught her. I got the tingles any mated couple would tell you they get at every touch, and I could see that she got them as well buy her reaction. She immediately looked up at me wide eyed and shivered in my arms.
"You alright?"
"Y-yes tha-ankyou"
"It's my duty to protect you mate, even if you don't want my protection"
And of course as soon as my mate isn't trying to run away from me kian chooses to come rushing in; this better be important.
"Alpha i need to speak to you...privately for a moment please, we can be just outside the door she'll be ok the window is plastic now she can't jump, please Alphs its important"
"Fine, but give me a sec"
I lifted her back up and placed her gently on the bed kneeling down so were eye to eye.
"Little mate, im going to be right outside the door so ill know of you try run again, please don't. Im not a person who begs but im begging you please dont run"
She didn't say anything but she was looking at me this time. Before leaving to see what kian had to say I kissed her forehead, and she didn't jump back this time she just sighed in what I hope wasn't resentment.
As soon as I left the room kian was there pacing, once he notices me he started to ramble.
"therougesaregettinggutsiertheykeepmakingmovestotrygaingroundonyourterritoryandwell...theyjustheardthatyoufoundyourmate"
"Slow down kian, what's going on?"
"The rouges have been getting gutsier, they keep making moves to try gain ground on your territory and well..uh.the-they m-may hav-ve heard that you found y-your mate, a-and one of our spies heard that they are gonna do all they can to get her.."
"IF THEY COME OVER THE BORDER, THE GUARDS HAVE A NEW COMMAND, KILL ON SIGHT NO MERCY"
"y-y-yes my king"
Angelica POV
After the king left the room I knew there would be no way of escape so I just tried to get comfortable on the hospital bed. He kissed me before he left, I know it was only on my forehead but it felt really...nice. As I was thinking about what happened I heard a ground rumbling growl from outside my door and moments later the king or should I say..my mate? bursts in. His eyes immediately lock onto me and I feel like a deer in head lights, he came towards me really fast causing me to flinch. Once he saw that I flinched he stopped and started to pace at the end of my bed. I heard that mates are supposed to calm eachother down so I slowly and cautiously got out of the tangle I made in the blankets and moved towards him, he froze once my hand touched his then he looked at me and squeezed my hand.
"a-are y-you ok-k"
"Now that im here with you, yeah. Can I ask a favor?"
"o-ok"
"C-can i please have a hug?"
He really looked like he needed it so instead of saying anything while stuttering the whole way through i just put my arm he wasn't holding around him then removed my hand he was holding and connected my hands behind him, he put his head in the crook of my neck and I knew he needed it, I dont know how but I just knew. I rested my head on his chest while while he kept his head in my shoulder.
Dominic POV
When I asked for a hug from her I didn't expect her to actually hug me.
DOM DOM DOM
Whats up roe
I can feel her wolf, she's not awake yet but she's still here
Thats great roe, she'll finally belive that she's our mate, I think she's getting there though she figured out that I needed her to calm down which means she might be accepting us already
Good, because we are never letting her leave or reject us. Make sure she doesn't reject us dom.
Shadow (Angelica wolf) POV
Im stuck in her mind she can't feel or hear me.But without me shes doing better than I would've ever thought, she's even believing that our mate is our mate. I can feel Dominic's wolf but I doubt he can feel me. This stupid silver, I can't even help Gel heal, I can feel her pain she's acting like she can't feel it but she can. Im happy that she's accepting him and hugging him but she should tell him that this hug is on her back with all her whip marks. Come on gel please tell himm.
Dominic POV
I slowly moved away kissing her head again, as I pulled an arm away I noticed her blood smeared on my sleeve.
"You didn't tell me i was hurting you"
"I-i gue-ess I j-just didn-n't noti-ice"
How did she not notice, some of her backs wounds had re-opened. I lifted her up without touching her back and she squealed, like how a girl squeals on a roller-coaster, my new favourite sound. I placed her on her bed tucking her in after untangling a huge mess of sheets.
Soon after I tucked her in an alarm went off in the hospital and she jumped so far that she fell off the bed straight onto her back.
