Chapter 20
"Anna maybe you should go meet with him!"
"I know Tyler I'm- wait what?" I blurt.
He must be joking! Right?
There's no way I'm meeting this psycho-stalker that's been taunting me for the past month.
What if something happens to me? Why is Tyler okay with that happening! Am I that easy to let go of?
Suddenly Katy peeks through the door. "Hey, you find your phone?" She asks casually.
I spin around with a panicked glare and she caught on that something is wrong. She smoothly steps
into the room and closes the door behind her.
"Look, Tyler, whatever she did now I bet she's really sorry!" Katy babbles. "She's under a lot of
pressure and sometimes she can lose her mind, but other than that she's like perfect, I mean look at
her butt it's-!"
"Katy!" I hiss at her, stopping her from continuing the ramble.
"Did she know?" Tyler questions, I can tell that he's hurt, it's killing me. I should have told him sooner,
how could I be so stupid. Lately, all I been doing is hurting him...
I didn't say anything, I didn't want to look at him if I did I would start to cry. Why would he want me to
meet him? He would just hand me over, wouldn't he?
"What's going on?" Katy asks completely confused, she put her hands on her hip and rose an eyebrow.
I wasn't planning on explaining and disappointing Katy also. I kept my head down and shuffled to my
even more cracked phone on the floor. I swiftly picked it up and rush out of his suffocating office, it's
like I couldn't breathe. Walking down the hallway I could hear Katy and Tyler talking, but I couldn't
make out what they were saying.
Maybe Tyler had a good idea, maybe I should just hand myself over. Maybe I'm going to!
Obviously, I'm just a burden on him and his pack, but those people want me. They desire me, they'll
fight for me!
I never thought I would have to choose between Tyler or someone who would kill for me, someone who
needs me.
I marched into my old bedroom and locked the door. I couldn't handle being in a room covered in his
scent.
I guess I made up my mind, I'm meeting with the mystery man... today.
~•~
He told me to meet with him in the clearing on the far east side of the forest. I was going to obey him
even though my wolf was crying for her mate, our mate. But after all, this is what Tyler wanted.
I haven't spoke to him or Katy the rest of the day, I guessing he enlightened her on the situation. I can't
help but wonder what she thought, did she understand why I did what I did? If she didn't then I guess I
have two people I love against me now.
I slipped on my thick jacket and my black boots, it's time to go. I tucked my phone deep in my warm
pocket and headed into the cool winter weather. Walking across the field by the training area I saw
Jackson sparing with another wolf. He won the match, but his eyes roamed to me.
Crap!
I immediately looked away and sped up my walking pace. He could see I was heading into the woods.
"Anna!" He called after me. I didn't dare look back. Just keep walking, just keep walking.
"Anna!" I could hear him getting really close.
I guess I can't dodge this one. I turned to see him running right up to me, time to lie.
"Hey, what are you doing out here?" He asked trying to catch his breath.
"Ah just going for a walk," I explained simply. Please don't say that Tyler will be mad blah blah blah...
"You know you shouldn't be out in the forest at night, Tyler will be worried and probably angry." And
there it is.
"Oh well... I already asked him, he just said to be quick." I lied through my teeth. I couldn't help but feel
super guilty.
"Really? Well, I was just going to see him now, so I guess I'll see you when you get back." I could tell
he didn't believe me, but I'm the Luna now and Tyler stressed on everyone not to disrespect me. Even
though I thought he was being a little dramatic.
We said our goodbyes and I took in a deep breath, that was close. I hurried up and made my way to
the clearing. The same one that Tyler broke a guys neck right in front of me, when I went after him. As I
got closer I started to feel uneasy and very nervous, I have an extremely unsettling pinch in my
stomach.
I walked past the last couple trees until I stepped foot in the empty plain if grass. I scanned the
surrounding area looking for the guy, the man that wanted me, that stalked me.
A cool breeze blew my hair back sending shivers down my spine. Someone is here, I could feel it, I
was not alone.
And I was scared.
"There's my precious, gorgeous, mysterious, perfect lady." I unknown voice rung in my ears.
Betrayal raked over me, what have I done, I'm with the enemy. I betrayed Tyler, Katy, my Father,
Jackson, my Family, and my pack. All to feel needed.
A hand slithered up my arm, disgust flooded my bones. It felt so wrong, so forced. I tugged away and
spun around to come face to face with him.
"Who are you?" I questioned, trying to stay strong. I need to be tough.
His hand lifted and touched my cheek gently, cupping my head in his hand. "Our children will be strong,
beautiful, indestructible." He thought out loud.
He was a nice looking man, tall, muscular but not a body builder. His hair was pitch black and he had
black stubble on his chin. But to me, he was nothing to be compared to my mate.
"Who are you?" I asked again but not as confident. Fear was dripping off my body by now.
"Soon you will be one too." He whispered into my ear. My heart thumped against my chest and my
palms felt clammy.
"Who are you?!" I shouted wanting an answer.
"Richard." The name left his mouth, sounding like a sin to my ears.
I felt so weak in his presence like he was stealing my strength.
"I can't wait until I have you." His hand traveling down my back.
Suddenly I was pushed against his chest by his hand. His lip assaulted my neck as I squirmed to get
free. I shoved him hard and he lost his grip on me, an evil smirk plastered on his face.
"Why don't you just steal me now!" I hissed at him while I wiped my neck trying to get rid of his
unwanted kisses.
"That would be too easy, plus I like a fight." Richards' voice was almost threatening, he's warning me.
I turned away from him and tried to comprehend what just happened. What have I done... I turned back
around. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"I don't under-" I stopped when I saw he wasn't here anymore. He's gone, but his scent still lingered in
the thick air.
I didn't wait one second before rushing back to the house. What he said, one thing that he said scared
me the most. "Soon you will be one too." The six words felt as if I was cursing.
The way he talked about our kids, him having me, stealing me now would be too easy. He wanted to
take me in front of everyone, as his prize.
I walked up to the house and pushed all of the thoughts about the fight I had with Tyler out of my head.
I had other things to worry about now.
I pushed the front door opened and casually walked in, pretending nothing happened. I looked up to
see Jackson, Katy, and Tyler sitting in the living room.
This cannot be good...
"How was your walk?" Tyler asked laced with anger.
"It was fine-" I stopped when he looked up at me with dark eyes, the scent. Richards scent. It's on me. I
must have forgotten about that minor detail that now has become ginormous.
My body hit the wall behind me hard as Tyler held me back roughly by my shoulders. "Who were you
with!" He boomed at me.
"I-I"
"You were with him weren't you!"
Suddenly he was ripped off of me by Jackson. I started to panic, my head became light.
"Yes, I was with him," I confessed blankly. "You told me to." My words were poison.
Katy had to join Jackson to help hold Tyler, I'm only making it worse. But right now I don't really care.
"Find someone else." Murderous, my words were murderous.
Tyler stopped fighting against Jackson and Katy. I couldn't look back, I wouldn't be able to handle the
pain. Footsteps fled the room, and so did my heart.
"Anna fix it," Katy demanded from behind me.
And so I made my way to Tyler's office.
