(Ryker) When I woke up the following day I forgot what had happened before. I forgot about Elias falling asleep next to me as it rains. I felt something or someone pinning me down on the bed and I moved on instinct. Pushing the person as hard as I could and hearing a yelp in return. Looking down I saw that it was Elias and started to scowl. How the hell could I have gotten so weak and allowed him in bed with me? It all started coming back to me, my memories being plaqued by what I was saying to him and how I was reacting to him being so close. How could I even fall asleep with him and even went as far as thinking about how good it felt to have him as my Mate and in my arms? What the hell is wrong with me? ' Ryker what the hell was that?' He asked as he stood up and glared at me. " what the hell was that? Get the Fuck out of my room!" My voice sounded strange, even to my ears. Elias jumps and ran as fast as he could out of my room. So much for making progress right? I sighed as I g

(Ryker) " and where do you think you're going? You had only just arrived here, but here you are running already when you should be spending time with your mate." Dad said as I glared at him, feeling annoyed by his presence. " I'm a grown ass man who doesn't need to answer to you or mom. Where I go should not be any problems of yours." I replied in a harsh tone, Dad started shaking his head as he looks at me with disappointment. " so we are back to square one? It's a lucky thing the elders already left, if they were to see you like this I'm sure they wouldn't hesitate to take your title from you." He's acting as if I gave a damn. If it's the alpha title they wanted so badly, they can have it for all I care. " I'm not going to stay here and argue with you old man, I have things to take care of. Now if you'll excuse me..." I said as I made a move to leave. But instead I was stopped by what my father had said. "I don't even know where your mother and I went wrong. We raised you and R

(Elias) I couldn't leave my room. It wasn't because I didn't want to see Ryker, it was because of something else. It's been two weeks now and I'm left to bear the burden of it by myself which sucks big time. The full moon was approaching, which meant one thing. My heat. How in the name of the goddess am I going to get through this knowing I can't stand being around Ryker? Knowing I won't be able to let him touch me in a sexual way without feeling repulsed? Even forest didn't know what to do. I didn't want to contact Raina because I knew she had things to do. It would only seem as if I was a baby and I needed constant care. It was too much. the scent, the pain, everything. I couldn't scream or call for help because I was mute. I could only contact Ryker for now, because he hasn't introduced me to his pack members as yet. I didn't know anyone here who I could rely on apart from his parents whom I didn't feel like bothering at this time. Maybe I should swallow my pride and let Ryker

(Elias) Forest gave me control once more after telling me that he needed time to rest. It seems as if something happened to him while mating with Ryker, but he wouldn't tell me what it was. When I got back control, the first thing I noticed was the excruciating pain that I was feeling in my lower back and feet. It was hard for me to walk, so I had to be in bed for most part. The second thing I noticed was Ryker sleeping next to me. It was dark when I woke up, which meant that I was out for hours. I thought that Ryker would have left when he was done, but I guess I was wrong. What is he still doing here by the way? The third thing was the heat was gone, which I was grateful for. Did he forgot his rules when he had just brought me here? If he was staying out of pity he can leave for all I care. Moments later he started to stir, letting me know that he was about to wake up. A yawn escapes his mouth as he opens his eyes, which landed on me instantly. The light from the lamp has given

(Ryker) Therapy wasn't really what I expected, that's why I said it didn't work. It only brought up bad memories for Elias which left him crying. He was too tired to even walk when we were done so I had to carry him back to our room to relax. I was there with him until he fell asleep, but now I had to leave because I had a lot of work to get done.Sitting in my office alone, I got to work in order to get my mind off what had happened earlier. Elias had a link opened between sally, who is my therapist and I so that we could communicate that way. She asked him a lot of things from how his life was going to school and how his family treated him. At first he revealed how they took care of him, how they groomed him at an early age to be an alpha and he actually thought they loved him. Then when it got to the point where he had to relive his experience with what had happened after they found out he wasn't an alpha, he broke down. The fact that I couldn't hear his cries or his pleas to sto
