Chapter 50: Chapter 50
Why didn’t you answer us man? Lily is going crazy. It took five of us to hold her down so she wouldn’t go running after you guys. FIVE! I have no idea how she became so god damned strong. Anyway we sent people searching for you.
I felt happiness that my mate was worried about me and answered him
we’re just a bit away from where we were originally fighting. I said Oh and Keith, let the pack doctor be ready I’m fine but Xavier is hurt bad.
Yeah okay Keith said and I turned back to Xavier.
It was only a few minutes before I saw wolves running towards us one with some material in the first one’s mouth.I saw Adrian shift and put his pants on, he handed me something
"The doc said to put this on should hold him till we get there" he told me and I took the gauze and helped him wrap it gently around Xavier.
Xavier didn’t let anyone carry him so we helped him up and he leaned on Adrian as we went to the pack house.
I reached the house before them all and before I could even register I felt someone engulf me in a hug, and from the tingles I felt. I knew it was Lily.
I smiled as I wrapped my arms aroud her , enhaling her scent, her sweet scent. God I loved that girl.
Lily pulled away and looked at me before looking at something behind my shoulder, her expression turned from relieved to worried
"Xavier" she breathed and ran from me to Xavier. I turned and looked at her as she hugged him gently, trying not to hurt him. She pulled away and put his arm around her and helped him walk to the pack house.
Xavier stopped beside me and looked at me "You may not be my favorite person, but you have my respect Ethan I give you that" he smiled weakly "Thank you"
I nodded, not knowing what to say and I watched them walk into the house.
Lily’s P.O.V.
"What was that about?" I asked Xavier after I helped him down
"He’s a good alpha, Saved my life" Xavier answered me and I tried to hide my surprise as Ren came in the room.
"My mom will be here soon, so I’m going to help just clean your wound" she said and reached for Xavier who moved away.
"It’s okay I can wait" he said, his voice nervous. Ren chuckled
"Don’t worry I do know a few things, my mom taught me" and with that she touched Xavier’s chest. I heard her gasp but before I could ask what was wrong her mom got in
"Well you sure have been using my services lately" she joked "now I want you all out while I check on him"
I nodded and got out.
Ren’s P.O.V.
I stared at him incredulously. My mom had just finished patching him up and I did nothing all the time but sit in the corner and stare at him. But now we were alone
"You didn’t tell me" I stated "You didn’t want me touching you" I shook my head remembering how he avoided my touch like I was the god damned plague.
"Ren it’s not that it’s" He said
"What? Don’t you dare say you were planning on telling me Xavier" I said feeling my heart break "I’m your mate. How could you reject me?"
Anger flashed in his eyes "I would never reject my mate do you hear me? I’m not an asshole and I would never do that."
"yeah your a saint" I said sarcastically "I-I can’t believe you Xavier." With that I stood up and left, knowing he couldn’t follow. I ran out of the pack house and to my own house. Throwing myself on my bed as I started crying like I’ve never cried before
Lily’s P.O.V.
I kept thinking of what Xavier said and was surprised when I unintentionally found myself at Ethan’s bedroom door.
I knocked and waited for him to tell me to go in. He looked shocked to see me and I stared at him, he was shirtless. his rippled chest causing my mouth to dry.
"Anything wrong?" he asked walking towards me
"I-I just wanted to say thanks. Xavier told me he-Uh. Just thanks Ethan" I said and averted my gaze to my feet. I heard him walk towards me
"You know I would never want you hurt Lily, even in that way." he said and I felt a tug at my heart. "I lo-" he started to say but I interrupted him
"Don’t" I said firmly "Don’t say those words"
he walked towards me and I started to back away. "and why is that?" continuing to walk towards me.
I gulped "Cause I don’t like games Ethan"
"Neither do I" he said and I noticed I was backed up against the wall now, with his arm on the side of my face. I looked up at him, meeting his eyes
"Then why do you play them so well?" I asked
"Let’s see just how well I play" He said and made sure he was as close to me as he could. He raised his free hand and brushed my cheek, not roughly like I expected from the tone of his voice, but gently, making my wolf howl in content. I looked away refusing to let him look me in the eyes but he wasn’t having any of that. He grabbed my face and made me look at him noticing my eyes turning black, my wolf was taking over.
" tell me Lily" he said "tell me someone else can drive your wolf this crazy" he demanded dipping his head and planting a kiss on my collar bone taking a deep breath inhaling my scent.
