2. Truths

Freya sighed as she looked out to the waterhole on the Lockwood property that had been her and Tyler's go to place. She had chickened out in being present when Tyler was told the truth, about everything. She couldn't stand to see the look on her mates face when he learned the truth of that night.

(One Year Ago)

Freya didn't see any good way that this could turn out. She didn't see Caitlyn anywhere and Rowan couldn't do anything. Zach laughed as started running his hands over her making Freya want to puke in disgust. Just as she thought that she just might be raped Zach was knocked away from her and she turned around in anger helping Caitlyn kick him until he wasn't moving. The two girls starred in horror and then started to scream when something in them rose and their eyes flashed yellow.

(End of Flashback)

Freya turned her head her eyes flashing good when she heard something and calmed down when she saw Tyler. She turned away afraid to see the emotions in his eyes thinking that he wouldn't want her anymore or even care for that matter.

Tyler couldn't believe what he had just learned from his sister and uncle. Their family line had the gene for werewolves and so did Freya. The curse was activated when human blood was spilled which his sister and Freya did when she had been attacked. Tyler hated himself when he learned that because for so long he was pissed at her only to find out that she had almost been raped. When he had come to find her he expected a lot of things but not shame though the gold eyes looked good on her. Seeing her turn away Tyler went over to her and grabbed her turning her around to face him.

"Don't turn away from me," Tyler said holding her by the arms gently.

"Why shouldn't I? You're disgusted with me," she yelled.

"No I'm not I'm disgusted with them don't tell me how I feel," Tyler yelled right back.

Before Freya could say anything she was slammed against a tree and her mouth was invaded. Tyler bit down on her bottom lip drawing blood and causing her to groan out a mixture of pleasure and pain which was swallowed by Tyler. Freya wrapped her legs around his waist and arched her neck submitting to her mate as he marked her skin but before it could get further than that Tyler stopped.

"We shouldn't do this," Tyler whispered from his place against her neck.

"Why?" Freya asked disappointed.

"Because you deserve better than this," Tyler answered pulling back to look into her blue eyes.

Freya smiled closing her eyes because that answer just proved that he still cared about her maybe even loved her. She unwound her legs from around Tyler's waist and leaned into him letting him take her weight. Tyler wrapped his arms around Freya as he held her in his arms like he had been wanting to for the past year. Neither one of them wanted to ever let go of the other, not again and not after all that had happened.

Later that night they were in Tyler's room laying on the bed. Tyler had changed into lounge pants while Freya wore a pair of her grey sweatpants and one of Tyler's t-shirts. Tyler was on his back with Freya's head laying on his chest and her blonde hair fanned out. He ran his hand through her hair and knew from the way her eyes fought to stay open that she was close to sleep.

"Promise that we'll fight for us, that we won't just give up," Freya whispered.

"I promise," Tyler whispered.

The two of them knew that their relationship was far from perfect and that they had things that they needed to work through but together they could get through anything. If they could get through Freya's attack and wolf problem and Liz being a bitch then they could get through their problems, they were mates after all.

~Bonds of Three~

Rowan and Caitlyn sat in Mayor Lockwood's study knowing that something was coming that they would have to face. Rowan was able to see spirits and one had warned her about Freya's biological family.

"What did the spirit say?" Caitlyn asked wanting to get every detail.

"That Freya's brothers were coming and that we would have to help them because they were connected to us and that it would ensure not only our survival but Freya's as well," Rowan answered.

The two girls were confused and wondering what the spirit had meant because she had refused to elaborate to them. Rowan was the only human between them all besides their parents and Caitlyn had a feeling that it might have something to do with the sun and moon curse she had heard about from Mason but unlike Mason her and Freya didn't mind being a wolf too much they had learned control during the full moon and found that if the door was lined with wolfsbane then they couldn't escape plus pack helped as well.

~Bonds of Three~

Tyler woke in the middle of the night and was confused at first until he felt Freya move around restless mumbling in her sleep. At first he thought it was just a random nightmare but then he felt her shake in fear and was concerned. He wrapped his arms tightly around her and just comforted her waiting for her to come out of it.

Freya was having the same nightmare she had every night but instead of it being about the attack it was about strange people. They had been dressed in old clothing and one man who was the main event of her nightmares scared her.

"Pathetic girl just like your brother Niklaus," the man said raising the whip.

Freya curled up in a ball crying as he continued to whip her for being too slow. She wanted it to stop and didn't care how just that it did. The whipping stopped and Freya opened her eyes to see a man with brown hair and hazel eyes stopping the man and another with blonde hair and blue eyes crouching down to pick her up.

Freya went to bolt up only to find herself in comforting arms. She wrapped her hands tightly around Tyler's wrist in a death grip not wanting him to let go. She was afraid of the man in her dreams and had this deep sinking feeling that he was coming for her and that made her even more afraid.
