Hello readers! I am so sorry for the delay in updating.
School is mean when it wants to be! Along with the fact that this stupid laptop actually deleted the chapter! I wanted to throw this thing away!
Anyway here is the 9th chapter to the story! I hope you all enjoy!
Chapter 9
Jake's POV
I sit in the abandoned factory with my pack. I lick my lips as I remember what the pack and I did to John. The way he fought with every ounce of will and strength that he possessed. I let out a devilish smirk as my pack and I gave him his 'punishment'. Looking towards my second in command, I nod at him. My beta nods in return as he runs off into the night. Looking to the rest of my pack I chuckle darkly, "Time for the next step boys."
Sheriff's POV
I groan as I slowly wake up. I don't open my eyes yet but I do try to move around. When I realize that I couldn't move around I start to panic a bit, thinking that I was back with Jake and his pack. I start struggling harder as I feel whatever's holding me constrict me further. "Stop moving John, you're only going to hurt yourself more."
My body instantly relaxes at the sound of the voice. Cracking my eyes open I am met with the handsome face of Peter Hale. Realizing where I am I attempt to sit up, the key word being attempted. Peter only tightens his hold on me and nuzzles his face into the crook of my neck. I realize that he was scenting me, meaning that he was my mate.
The impact of that thought brought tears into my eyes, sadly they aren't tears of joy, but tears of pain. Peter shoots his head back and caresses my cheek lovingly. "What's wrong? Did I hurt you?" I could only shake my head as I bury my face into his chest. All the memories of the past enveloping me with darkness. I'm grateful that Peter doesn't ask me any more questions; instead he just sits there with me in his arms, letting me cry my heart out.
Peter's POV
I swear the moment I saw John's tears I knew that he doubted himself. Doubting if he was a good mate or not, this conclusion brought nothing but anger and frustration out of me. I bring him closer against my body in the hope that he would relax. I nuzzle him gently, taking in his sweet scent. "Don't worry, just rest my mate."
I feel John relax as his eyes struggle to stay open. I softly laugh as John whines a little like a young child. I place a kiss on his head as I carry him to my room. I see Stiles look at me with mixed emotions; I simply give him a reassuring nod as I walk up the stairs to my room. The only thought running through my head was that I needed to care for my injured mate.
Stiles POV
I saw Derek's uncle carry my dad bridal style as I sat at the dinner table doing homework. I wonder what would happen when my dad decides to follow his instincts. Would he just leave me since I wasn't Peter's biological son? I look back down at my homework as I try to clear my head. The only problem was that those dark thoughts wouldn't leave me alone.
I keep thinking that since they're going to be together then Peter wouldn't want me around him or my dad. It makes sense since I'm not his son at all. I wasn't a product of love; I was a product of rape. I wonder if every time my dad looks at me he remembers all of the bad things that happened in his past. I let out a soft whimper as I put down my pencil.
Getting out of my seat I run a hand through my hair, I put away all of my homework and walk out of the Hale house. Putting my backpack on my back I make my way through the woods. Looking at the ground the whole time I end up going to Scott's house. I knock on the door and wait for someone to answer. I look up when the door opens, revealing Scott's mother. Smiling a little I wave, "Hello Mrs. McCall, is Scott home?"
"Of course he is, come on in Stiles." Melissa opens the door wider as I enter the house. Walking up the stairs to Scott's room I knock. I hear a muffled response as I open the door. I smiles widely as Scott is sitting on his bed eating chips. "Well if it isn't my favorite person in the world."
Scott only snorts in response and sits up, "What's up dude? I barely get to see you anymore. Did something happen?" I sit down on his chair and let out a puff of air. "Oh yea, a lot of things happened. One being that my dad may or may not have found a possible love interest."
Scott shoots up in shock, "Really dude!? That's great!" "I don't know Scotty, I feel like if they really start to hit off then I'll be left behind. Selfish I know but I can't really stop those thoughts, for as long as I can remember it's been my and my dad against the world. I just…don't want him to forget me." I let out a small sigh as Scott places a hand on my shoulder.
"No sweat dudes, knowing your dad you're never going to be left behind. I bet that he's going to tell the one he's with that if they can't accept you then they wont be together." "You think so Scotty?" Scott nods confidently as he smiles, "I'm one hundred percent positive. Now, are you going to help me with homework?" I let out a laugh as Scott rubs the back of his head sheepishly. "Alright I'll help, but you owe me big time dude." I get out my own homework and resume working with him. For now I'll just take the blows as they come, I'm happy with how my life is right now, despite the danger.
FINALLY FINISHED!
God I can't believe this laptop, if it was breathing then I would strangle it.
Hopefully this is a good apology for not updating regularly!
See you all in Chapter 10!
