chapter 55:Aiden’s POV

"You need to get her out of here!" My mother growled as she and Willow stood guard pressing themselves against the door of Xerxes's chambers,

"I don't think we can hold them off any longer."

I looked at Gabby laying on the bed half awake, half asleep as Xerxes applied the healing potions on her. I fisted my hands taking in deep breaths as the urge to mate and mark her worsened, first, it was her heat scent driving me crazy and now the anger that came with the unmated wolves outside the door banging on it to claim my mate. She was clean now, traces of blood wiped away from her but her wounds were still fresh and she looked battered. She turned over, the shirt she wore which was mine ridding up her laps and I let out a primal growl, the urge to rip the shirt off her and mate with her till she bred grew worse.

"Fuck!" I groaned as she opened her eyes and stared at me with those green orbs, her eyes calling at me, beckoning me to help her out of her situation. She moaned out my name and I grunted, fighting this urge off was going to be hard, "Are you done?" I snapped at Xerxes as he hovered a bowl of steaming liquid over her.

"Almost your highness." He said before filling her with more potions and in a while he was done. The door cracked. The restraint of my mother and Willow would be useless in no time, the power of the lust driven unmated wolves was unmatched,

"Done." He pronounced and instantly I went towards Gabby, scooped her in my hands and my cock hardened more as she wrapped her hands around my neck and buried her head in my chest.

"Go!" My mother screeched and immediately the door bursted open dividing into splinters. Xerxes cursing about his broken door was the last thing I heard as I teleported away from his chambers and straight to a private cottage in the woods. It was where I used to go to when I was extremely troubled. Gabby will be safe from all of them here but will she be safe from me?

"Are you mad at me?" She pouted as I dropped her on the bed in the cottage bedroom. She looked up at me with her doe eyes seeking an answer and nodded in return. She seemed much better but her face looked strained from the wounds and effects of

heat, "Why?" She asked which came out as a moan and the sound went straight to my already hardened cock which was straining through my pants begging to be freed. I moved behind the bed poster in other to hide my hard on from her, I couldn't mate with her in this condition. "Because you didn't tell me about your past with

that Alpha and I still do not understand what is going on!" I glared at her which she found amusing, she thinks it's funny? I almost lost her, dammit! She laid back on the bed curling in a ball as she stared at the ceilings. Her sweet smelling essence filling the room again and took all the self control me not to go to her and slam into her repeatedly till the only thing she remembered was my name,

"He was my ex mate." She said in a low voice and I badly wanted to fuck her now, jealousy raged in me at the fact that she once had a mate and it was him. I wanted to fuck her into oblivion and erase every memory of him from her.

"It hurts so bad." She curled into a ball again clutching at her abdomen as she got hit by another wave of the burning feeling, I felt the same too and I held onto the wood work for some restraint, "My dad gambled me to him when I was barely six and he tormented me from then on." She began to talk much to my surprise and i moved closer to her, took a seat on the bed and placed a hand on her back earning a moan, fuck! Her skin burned my palm with raw passion, her scent invading my senses primaly, "He would beat me and the rest of the pack followed suit abusing me. I found out that he was my mate when I was sixteen. He cursed the moon goddess for bringing us together, rejected me, forced me not to accept the rejection and then he mated with me taking my innocence without marking me." My free fist tightened, he took what solely belonged to me, her innocence, it was mine to take, she was mine to ruủn, I am going to make him regret ever laying a hand on her, "I got pregnant and he beat me up hoping I would lose Kate." I looked at her face as she talked, it was blank but I saw a lone tear roll down her cheek. I wanted to hold her close and comfort her but that would lead to other things and so I kept my distance, "ButI didn't, I gave birth to her which only heightened the abuse. I was the pack slave, I served them, cooked for them, cleaned for them. Alpha Titan raped me severally, the rest took turns, warriors and unmated wolves. They took me anyhow they wanted and wherever, leaving me bleeding after they were done."

"I am going to burn that pack to the fucking ground!" I seethed with contempt for every single man that had laida hand on her which wasn't me.

"My father never sought to defend or save me as the Alpha looked for more ways to increase my torture, he always drank himself into nothingness. I got beaten regularly, got carved words on my body, scars, burns and got injected with wolfsbane and silver. I was tortured every day of my life and mated with other females, I felt the pain. The only thing that kept me pushing was that I had to live for Kate no matter the amount of torture or insults I got for being an abomination.." she gulped, more tears rolled, "On my twenty second birthday, I confronted him as I suffered from the pain of him being with another woman. He got angry beat me up and killed my father after that he tortured and beat me up for days and one day I decided to run away when he was about to become violent with Kate and that's how you found me.

"Why didn't you tell me?" A vein in my neck ticked as I was filled with fury and the desire to avenge her.

"I thought you wouldn't want me if you knew." Her Voice came out as a soft sob and at the same time another wave hit her making me crazy with lust. I stood up from the bed abruptly and began walking away from her and towards the door.I needed to get away from here before I was blinded with lust and being an Alpha was making it harder for me to control not taking what is mine.

"Where are you going?" She asked as I reached the door.

"Away from you." I said a little too harshly but damn I was frustrated. I wanted her. I want to rip the damn cloth away from her body and bury myself deep in her till she saw stars. I wanted to tell her how much she meant to me in the language I knew best. I wanted to destroy her with my hands, tongue and cock before piecing her back together till she realised that she meant everything to me. Small feet padded on the floor behind me and soon felt her presence, I was forced to turn around and look at her fiddling with the hem of the shirt she wore.

"I am in heat." She whispered, "And it's killing me..."

"I know." I gulped before drinking in her soft appearance, pale blonde hair falling in straight tendrils with her pouty lips puckered and her face displaying blatant lust.

"You do not want me." She said before turning around and was about to move when I wound my hand in her hair and yanked her back pulling her back flush against me

"Repeat that one more time, I dare you!" I grunted harshly grinded my straining cock against her back side. She let out a gasp, "Feel how hard you make me Gabby?" She whimpered as I continued my movements, "You don't know how crazy you are driving me kitten." I growled in her ear as she pushed back against me rocking her ass on my pushed back against me rocking her ass on my crotch driving me to the brink of lustful Insanity.

"Then why don't y..."

"You wouldn't be able to take me in this state." I grunted wrapping my free hand around her neck,

"You can't go through the mating process, you just got back from a traumatic..."

"I need you." She moaned out cutting me off, my self restraint was thinning, "Please.."

"I haven't even touched you and you are all wet." I said collecting the smell of her arousal in the air as I pushed my hand under the shirt and ran a finger up her slit. I closed my eyes and snifed at her pale neck before grazing my canines on her pulse spot which sent her to shudder against me, "You are making this really hard, I do not want to lose control."

"What if I want you to?" She whispered softly and that was all it took. My thin thread of restraint snapped. I turned her around and slammed her on the wall. My hands picking her legs up and I threw them around mny waist.

"Is this what you want?" I rocked harshly on her bare core as her shirt was bunched up now. Her juices leaked straining against the fabric of my juices leaked straining against the fabric of my trousers, "You want me to lose control with you?"

She nodded as a strangled moan escaped her. Her green eyes glazed with lust as they stared at me. Heat travelled between us, where our bare skin met, sparks erupted with each movement, the lust increased. I licked my lips eyeing her like an animal will before devouring it's prey, well I was the animal here and Gabby was the prey. I was driven with the hunger to savour every inch of her till there was nothing else, to leave my mark on her and remind her that she was mine, "You must love daring wild animals hermosa, cause you are about to be bitten very badly and it appears that you are not scared."

"Maybe i want to be bitten badly." She whimpered steadying her hands on my shoulders as the effects of me rocking against her inviting core was maddening, just as she made me, "Or devoured."I hissed and slammed my lips on her bringing her in for a very ferocious kiss. I was crazed now, driven to the brink of lust and there was no going back, she wanted to be devoured, her words giving me the go ahead. She played with fire and she was going to get burned not even the moon goddess can save her from my carnal destruction.
