Mac's POV
I woke up with a headache, I feel so dizzy, I shut my eyes and open it slowly so my eyes can adjust to the light. I was in a strange room I didn't know. What was I doing here? How did I end up here? The events of yesterday played in my head like a movie, I held my head because of the sudden headache. I was almost raped.
Who was it that saved me? I didn't get to see his face because I was exhausted from trying to fight the rogue who almost assaulted me. I need to thank him for helping me, maybe this is home, I should go look for him.
I struggle to get out of bed, I feel so exhausted. When my feet managed to touch the floor, they were shaky. I didn't get to walk up to the door, someone walked in before I could reach it.
"What are you doing out of bed?" He asked.
"I just-" My words got stuck in my mouth when I got a clear look of his face, he was fucking Joss DelLuca, Joss DelLuca saved me? And why does he smell so nice, my wolf just purred, this can't be it right? This can't be the thing I've anticipated my whole life.
"Mate!" He said, his eyes an orange hue. He close the distance between us within the blink of an eye, I can't be mated to him, no fucking way. I placed my hand on his chest and pushed him away, the orange hue in his eyes diminished, his eyes changed to their original shade of blue.
"I... I ... Ihmm," I didn't know what to say. Why was the moon goddess playing tricks on me? Why would she do that to me? I thought when I saw my mate for the first time, all my life struggles will diminish, I thought he would take away the stress but why am I still feeling stresses out? Why did the moon goddess had to pair me up with a member of the DelLuca family?
"Why are you pushing me away? You are my mate." He said coming closer.
"I want nothing to do with you and your criminal background, you think I don't know the kind of business you run? Everyone here knows and I can't be linked with your family." I took steps backwards trying to stay as far as possible away from him.
"My criminal background doesn't change the fact that we share a mate bond, you are mine." If it was someone else who had claimed me like that, I wouldn't think twice to jump into his arms.
"I haven't accepted to be your mate, I'm not yours, you can't claim me like that." We ended on the wall, I was trapped between him and and wall.
Joss circled my neck with his big rough palm, things like this was meant to make my dick twitch and not make me scared. He however didn't apply too much pressure, he just held my neck.
"Look at me Mac, do I look like I give a fuck if you accept me or not? It doesn't change the fact that you are mine, you belong to me and will always belong to me no matter where you run to, you'll always be mine." He let go of my neck and held bot of my hands and lifted them above my head and caged them on the wall. And then he held my waist and pulled me.
"You can't force me Joss so please let's just end things here."
"Who says I can't? It seems you don't truly know who I am, I don't give up on the things I want no matter what. Even if you break our mate bond today I'll still make you mine, you can't escape me Mac, you are mine and mine alone." He whispered the last sentence in my ears.
I didn't know what to say, I just stayed there staring at him with deviance in my eyes. A knock on the door was what saved me, Joss finally let go of me.
"Alpha Chloe is in the study waiting for you." The man who had knocked earlier said.
At the mention of my Alpha's name, my heart leaped for joy. Joss turned to me with a smirk, "Don't think she's here to safe you from me, she knows you are with me."
The hope I had deflected like a balloon, but I didn't give up. The moment he left, I snuck out of the room, luckily it wasn't guarded. Escaping Joss DelLuca was too easy, it felt like he wanted me to escape, and I didn't wait to know why he wanted me escape.
I shifted into my wolf, I didn't look back as I ran into the woods, the morning breeze fan my golden fur. I jumped over tree trunks and stepped on twigs. When I got home I shifted back, my clothes intact.
"Where have you been?" My dad asked the moment I stepped into the house.
"Where have I been? I was almost violated but where were you? I abandoned me and ran away!" I yelled.
"Almost violated? But isn't that what you deserve? You faggot, is that what you've always craved for? It's what you are always after which is why you walk around in skimpy clothes."
For a moment I regretted leaving Luca DelLuca's home, I should have just stayed there and dealt with him, I wouldn't be here listening to my dad treating me like I was sin.
"I don't have time for you dad, I'm going to my room." I pushed pass him but he grabbed my hair and pulled me back.
"I'm not done talking to you, how dare you walk away from me?" He yelled
"What else do you want from me dad? At least let me rest, I've been through a lot, I just want to go to my room and sleep."
"You will get to relax when you give me some money, I need some money."
Of course he needed money, he always needs money so he can use it to gamble his life away like he did with our family's fortune after mom passed away.
"I don't have money to give you. Aren't you ashame of yourself? I'm only seventeen, you keep asking me money like I work in some farm or for the Alpha." The moment I was do e talking my dad gave me a resounding slap, I saw stars.
"Your age mates are in the human world making money and bringing it back home to their family while you are here whoring around like the bitch that you are!" He yelled again, the veins on his neck popping out.
"And some fathers are helping their children not pushing them into things that they shouldn't be doing and they are not homophobic, they love their children unconditionally." I pushed him away freeing my hands from his grip and running to my room, I shut the door with a bang.
Fuck him, fuck Joss, fuck the moon goddess, fuck everyone. I blinked my eyes and the tears that I've been holding since I came home came pouring down, that's he it always goes, I always end up crying....
