Surprise

-The next morning-

Cradling yourself won't get us out of here E. I told myself, forcing myself to stand. Do it for the girls, I kept telling myself, I walked out of my chambers.

BRUTUS VEIW

I walked down the Hallway with a towel covering my waist and one of top my head. I need to find the Alpha and see if he could spare some clothes, or at least a room to change.

Walking I started to smell something strong....not an odor. Something sweet and tangy. I look up to see her...it was E again. Just in different clothes, why didn't she just take a shower?

I sigh and walk to her, "Hey Doll, do you know where I could change?"

She jumped and coward, was I being violent? She looks up at me, she looks tired and as if she's been crying...I caught a glimpse at something dark on her face until she covers her cheek with her hand. "U-umm it's just E-E....no pet names please."

"Mkay, what's wrong Doll? You look like a mess." I completely got straight to the point, no more hiding I want to know what going on.

"S-sorry....." she looks down as if I'm about to blow up on her.

"U-umm what are you doing??? Why are you upset doll?"

"Stop calling me Doll! I'm not something you can walk all over!! Okay?!"

I froze a bit, "..."

"All of you men treat us like objects!!! You people are awful!" She moves her hands off her face and starts to grip her messy brown hair, I see now....a slap mark across her face. She continues to ramble on while a fresh batch of tears roll down her cheeks.

"Hey Hey...calm down." I lowered my voice softly to her. Then realization, of her spilling out to me, consumed her. She looks at me, and backs away, "...you heard nothing from me...please don't tell Eric."

I raised a brow, "why would I?"

"Just don't please..."

"What's going on Doll?"

"..."

"I see if you wish not to tell...at least take a bath."

"N-no I'm fine..."

I sigh and walk away to put clothes on then walked back over to her, "Bath time"

She crosses her arms and looks away, "N.O means No Brutus."

She's like a stubborn pup, I chuckle a little.

"What's so funny?" She looks at me with a cocked head.

"Oh Nothing, well except..." I smirk widely, my mother always did this to me if I didn't take a bath. She'd pick me up Army Style and force a bath. So....guess what I did....

I picked her up put her over my shoulder and started walking straight to the bathroom. The best part was the view of dat ass~ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

"Hey!!" She let out a small screech.

"Bath time E"

"Noooooooooo!!! Your gonna get me into trouble!"

"No I won't!" I closed and locked the bathroom door behind me. I place her on the toilet seat while I got the bath ready. In the process I would once and awhile hear her jiggling the handle and whenever I look at her she would hiss like a feral cat. I would respond with a shake in the head and small laugh.

Now for the hard part getting her IN the bath....I look at her, she looks at me, "get in the bath"

"No"

"ヽ(ಠ_ಠ)ノ"

"ޏ₍ ὸ.ό₎ރ I'll fight you"

"I know.....you leave me no choice...but to act like a parent."

"Wait wha-!"

I quickly snatch her up and try to remove her clothes, oh gods......why me.....why, I feel like a pervert.

She hissed a lot, and bites too wow.

ONE PAINFUL ETERNITY LATER

"Finally! Thank you God!!!"

"（￣^￣）凸"

Yes...she's flipping me off, so worth it.

"I hate you so much." She crosses her arms, I look at her face.

"Aww, come on Kitten."

"Kitten?"

"......." I slowly left my arms up showing her the bite marks SHE left.

"Ah...I see."

"You also hiss like a cat."

"Self defense" she goes wide eyed at the bubbles in the bath as if she hadn't seen it in forever.

"Mhmm whatever," I walk over to the side of the bath and sit on the side. While she plays in the bubbles. "Your like a Child."

"...yea...I haven't had a bath like this in awhile."

"How long ago?"

"Umm....you don't wanna know"

I sigh heavily and grab the shampoo, she ain't gonna clean her hair with bubbles distracting her. I dab some in my hand and start stroking her hair in the shampoo.

"What are you doin?"

"Cleaning you?" Why am I cleaning a female... [・_・?]wait I'm touching her...she's naked....I'm giving a naked lady a bath...

"Ok?" She carried on back to playing with bubbles. Splashing around. I couldn't help but smile, she looks so happy right now...but why do I care??

Part of me doesn't care to know why, that part only wants to be near her and treat her as a goddess.....the other part what's to know why I'm acting like this, what I'm feeling.

As I start to work my way down her back she starts to flinch of pain.

"Ow"

"What? What's wrong?"

"Nothing...just a little sore that's all..."

"..." I lightly move her long soapy hair to see what's bothering her

"No no it's really nothing." She pulls her hair back down, but I resist and continue pulling her hair up. What I saw made my wolf angry....very very angry...

Her back was covered in scars...some old some new.

"...Who did this to you?"

"N-no one." She looks at me with fear in her eyes.

"Don't lie to me E. Who did this?"

Eos Point Of View

Brutus look lived, but it was just scars. Brutus teeth lengthen and he asked me again, "who did this to you?" I just kinda sunk into the water trying to hide.

"Fine if you don't tell me I'll get Eric to tell me." He stands and washes the soap off his hands.

"N-no...please....i-if he finds out about you being with me....."

He jerked his gaze at me, "he'll what?"

"...."

"Is he the one who did this to you?"

"...yes....and no..."

"What do you mean?"

"....he's not the only on who does it."

"Wait your entire pack treats you like this?"

I shake my head, "not just me every girl who isn't a werewolf has been a slave....for awhile." I sunk lower into the warm water, to hide my scars, sticking my knees out of the water.

"How long have you been here?"

".....8..."

"8 days isn't that lo-"

"8 years..."

He went silent. I glanced at him, at that moment when I said he looked lived...I haven't seen lived until now. He's muscles were tensing up causing them to bulge out his shirt, he was on the verge of shifting.

"Brutus....?"

"Stay." He storms off out the bathroom leaving me alone in the bathroom.

Brutus Point Of View

I locked the bathroom door so no psycho pack members get their filthy hands on her. They will not lay their hands on my umm....this nice lady...

I look around for Eric, the Alpha. But he's no where in sight. Liss walks to me from earlier, "hey we got off on the foot."

"Not now." I growl at her, "where's your Brother? Eric."

She groans, "Oh come on, why him? Why not me?"

"I need to talk to him."

"He's in the Ball room but let's-"

I cut her off," Thank you..." and walk away.

As I enter the ball room all I could smell was sweat, alcohol....and fear, I turn my gaze to Eric. He was in a chair with a female Human in his lap, she was being terrorized.

I see it now, I storm over to Eric.

"Alpha Eric...may I talk to you?"

He was in the middle of biting the girls neck when he looks up at me. "I'm kinda Busy Brutus."

"Now." With a tang of dominance.

He heard it in my voice and slowly pull his K9 teeth out of her neck, "what do you want to talk about."

"Privately..."

".....ok" He mumbles and push the girl up while standing.

I walk into a hallway as he followed, crossing my arms.

"So what's up?"
