Savage Desire
Chapter 5

Jeremy couldn't take it anymore. He growled as he shifted back into his human form. He'd had it. He just couldn't stand the fact that Ryan was in pain. He had to pull his leg out. Ryan could do whatever he wanted to do to him, Jeremy didn't care. He went to where Ryan's leg was stuck, ignoring his frenzied growls.

"You can bite me if you want." Jeremy growled. "I'm doing this." With that he reached into the hole and grabbed hold of Ryan's leg. Then he slowly pulled it out, wincing at Ryan's howl of pain. "It's broken." Jeremy said grimly. "You need a doc... No, don't shift." Jeremy gasped when he felt Ryan begin to shift back. "You'll be in too much pain if you're in your human form 'At least the pain would be from an injury and not from another person inflicting it.' Ryan spat through their link. 'God, I hate you so much!

"Oh f**k." Jeremy gasped as he took a step back as though Ryan had punched him. His hand went to his chest which had suddenly tightened painfully. Earlier, he'd thought Ryan implying he wanted no part of his wolf form was painful. But Jeremy realized that Ryan telling him he hated him was even worse. He rubbed his chest as he fell to his knees. It definitely didn't help matters that Ryan was at that particular moment thinking how the world would be a better place with people like Jeremy out of it. 'Ryan please...' Jeremy gasped through their link.

'What the f**k have I done now?' Ryan snapped.

Jeremy looked at him and slowly shook his head. "Nothing." He said quietly as he got to his feet. Then without another word, he hulked out till he became a wolf-man. In that form the alpha, who was covered in red fur, was almost nine foot tall and had ten times the strength of his wolf. Ryan whimpered in fear. 'I'm going to carry you now.' Was all the warning Ryan go before Jeremy was lifting him up as though he weighed nothing.

Throughout the trip back to Jeremy's house, the alpha's heart broke. His mate hated him and with good reason too. If only he could turn back time, he couldn't help but wish. Ryan on the other hand didn't know what to think. Being held in Jeremy's arms so tenderly was definitely not what he'd expected from the cruel man. One would have thought in that scary imposing form, Jeremy would be even more cruel and wicked but on the contrary, Ryan had never felt safer in his life. He was totally confused so he just closed his eyes and enjoyed being held.

In the pack hospital, three doctors and four nurses ran around trying to make Ryan comfortable. Although news hadn't gotten to them that Ryan was their alpha's mate, they knew that for the alpha to change to that form and

carry an injured wolf himself, when he could have asked the warriors or any of the others to bring the wolfin, Ryan was obviously very important. And even if they hadn't seen their hulked out alpha carry in the injured wolf, the fact that the injured wolf had been taken to one of the executive rooms...which was reserved for only alphas and top ranking wolves, also showed how important the wolf was. The alpha's agitated pacing on the corridors of the hospital at that very moment was enough to put everyone on edge. Ryan was given a shot of something strong to take care of his pain at Jeremy's insistence immediately they'd gotten to the hospital. In no time at all his leg was set and his eyes were drifting shut with drowsiness thanks to the morphine that had been pumped into him. Just before he drifted of, he saw Jeremy standing in his line of vision, watching him. He was in dark jeans and a black t-shirt that fitted to his body like a second skin. And those eyes... 'Damn, he's hot' was Ryan's last thought before he drifted o to sleep. Jeremy heard Ryan as their link was still opened. But rather than feel thrilled that his mate found him attractive, he rather felt sad because he knew it was the morphine talking. Ryan despised him. "How long is he going to be out?" Jeremy asked Dr. Sanders, the lead doctor.

"About four hours Alpha."

"Keep me posted on anything that happens." Jeremy said as he turned and headed for the door. "I'll be back." He needed a good counsel. And the alpha knew exactly who to talk to.

"You what?" Joel, Philip's father, was too shocked his voice was barely above a whisper.

Jeremy winced at the disbelief in the elder's voice. "Uncle Joel please..." Jeremy began but got cut o}].

"No, no I think I didn't hear you well. Did you say you..."

“I forced myself on him okay?" Jeremy growled and shot to his feet. This was more difficult than he'd thought it would be. He couldn't stand the disappointment and condemnation in his mentor's eyes. F**k!

"You mean you raped your mate?" The elderly man growled right back. "What the hell were you thinking?"

"That's just it." Jeremy turned to face the man. "I wasn't thinking." He bellowed, his eyes shifting to amber. His wolf wanted out.

"Calm down Alpha." Joel said softly, realizing just how far he'd pushed Jeremy. "Sit down Jeremy."

Heaving a deep sigh, Jeremy took his seat. "I'm confused Uncle. What am I going to do? I made a mistake. He wasn't a hunter after all."

"You know he's not going to give his consent to be marked as your mate, don't you?" Joel said quietly. For one to become a full mate, they needed to give permission to be marked. But from what his ward had just told him, his mate would never give that consent. Not after what Jeremy had done to him.

"I know. I need your help Uncle. Tell me what to do." There was so much anguish in Jeremy's voice the older man gasped. He'd never seen Jeremy like that before.

"I don't know son. It's all up to you. You have to work this out yourself. Remember the prophecy said your mate was special?"

Jeremy would never forget that prophesy. That prophesy had been revealed on the day Jeremy had first transformed into a wolf. Unlike every other wolf, Jeremy had his first shift at the age of twelve instead of fifteen. A major werewolf gathering for alphas and elders was in session that day and the prophecy had been made known to all members.

Though he'd been a kid, he'd always had it at the back of his mind. He remembered how happy his mother had been about that prophecy. She'd explained to him that most werewolves never found their soul mates and had to settle for anyone they were compatible with. She was therefore happy because the prophecy predestined that her son was going to replace his mate. Jeremy also remembered thinking with Philip when they were kids that his mate being special meant he was probably going to marry Miss. America one day.

"Yes, I remember." Jeremy said softly. But what made Ryan special? Did having two dicks make someone special, Jeremy wondered. Or was it the fact that he was the first male mate to a male alpha. He hadn't told the elder that bit about his mate's dicks. Jeremy thought it was personal and therefore didn't plan on telling anyone. It was between him and his mate.

"What we didn't add was that part of the prophecy that stated that your mate was going to be someone who would wield a lot of power and would help you rule. In fact we were all warned to be very careful how we treated that individual because that mate was going to be very important to not only our pack, but to werewolves everywhere.

"Oh God." Jeremy gasped as an image of a hulked out Ryan flashed in his mind. He remembered wondering how

he'd been able to do that when he hadn't even been marked as a mate yet. "He became a wolf-man at a point." Jeremy whispered.

"He what?" Joel frowned in surprise. "I thought you didn't mark him. How..."

"I don't know how he did it." Jeremy rasped. "He was very angry. Fuck, I thought he was going to kill me. I commanded him to shift back to human but he rather shifted into his wolf and jumped out."

"Most people never survive that kind of bite he received...mentally or physically. Looks like he did on both counts. That alone should tell you how special he is, Jer." Joel murmured with a curious frown on his face. "The prophecy said he is and so far the little you've told me about him proves it. He obviously doesn't even know how powerful he is. Refreshingly innocent."

"I've never hated this Ojah power more, Uncle Joel." Jeremy groaned. "I've always been able to control myself where it's concerned. Hell, even when I'm under its control, I make a conscious efort to remain a little bit sane. This time, I just couldn't." He buried his face

in his palms.

Joel looked at Jeremy with eyes filled with sympathy. That gift that Jeremy had, had so far been a blessing to the pack...helped them out of some real fucked up situations...till then. And as much as the trouble with his mate seemed as though it was Jeremy's problem, it was in fact a problem that the whole pack had to be concerned with. Because should Jeremy's mate reject him by refusing to mate with him, Jeremy's wolf would die. And the alpha would be no more. They couldn't have that. "You need him in your life Jeremy." The elder said with a sigh. "But you've pissed him of]. Getting him to forgive this

atrocity and submit willingly to you is going to be a feat. It's not going to be easy son. Hell, the Trojan War would be a piece of cake compared to the war you have on your hands. I think you need your mother on this one, son." "Damn, she's going to kill me if she hears this." Jeremy groaned.

"Better her than your mate. Because you need him to mate properly with you in the appropriate ceremony otherwise none of us will like the repercussions." "Fuck!"

"Now tell me, why do you hate so much that he's a man?" Joel asked with raised brows.

"Uncle, come on!" Jeremy looked elderly man's question. "I'm not gay. curves. I..." Incredulous at the I prefer boobs and

"But that didn't stop you from having sex with this man. And from what you told me, you found the experience so exhilarating that it actually snapped you out of your Ojah haze. You felt something for him at that moment of release despite the fact that you were not in control. And that's what snapped you back to yourself. 'Quae sunt scrpta fuit."

"What has been written has been written." Jeremy quietly translated Joel's Latin quote.

"Exactly." Joel nodded. "You have to somehow win his trust, Jeremy. Women are good at such things. That's why I think you should talk to your mother. If anyone can help you turn this around, she can."

"I still can't believe I did that." Jeremy groaned, covering his face with his hands.

"You didn't do that, Jer."

"I did Uncle Joel. I totally lost control, which..." Jeremy trailed of when he felt Dr. Sanders trying to push his mind to talk to him telepathically. 'What is it, doctor?' 'Alpha you have to come quickly. He's trying to shift. We're trying to stop him but he's getting agitated.

"I have to go Uncle." Jeremy was already on his feet and running before the doctor finished his sentence. 'Philip?' He screamed into the link with his beta. 'Get to Ryan immediately. Make sure he doesn't shift. Do whatever you can to stop that. I'm on my way! Jeremy tore out of the parking lot at breakneck speed. If Ryan shifted, it wouldn't harm him much as his injury had already started healing. What Jeremy wanted to prevent was Ryan shifting in the full glare of all those people. Wolves were used to seeing each other's nakedness so it wouldn't be a big deal. But Jeremy just knew Ryan would hate for anyone to see him naked. He clearly remembered how quickly Ryan had pulled on his jeans after he'd shifted back into human in the cage. Jeremy also remembered the panic in Ryan's eyes when he'd noticed his eyes on his dicks earlier that evening. Jeremy vowed to himself at that instant to ensure that Ryan became proud of his special nature. But for now, his main aim was to protect his mate's sensibilities.

Jeremy burst into Ryan's private room in the hospital and growled when he saw Philip soothingly stroking the beautiful white wolf...his mate. Philip instantly jumped of to the side of the bed and raised his hand in an act of peace. The nurses and doctors looked shocked at their alpha's reaction but said nothing.

"What happened?" Jeremy asked the head doctor.

"He woke up before the expected time so I thought he was hungry. We put some food into a bowl for him and he instantly went berserk."

'I won't eat like a dog! Ryan growled through his link with Jeremy, making the alpha really understand what the fuss was all about. He didn't blame Ryan. He wasn't used to all that.

"How bad will it be for his injury if he should shift now?" Jeremy asked quietly, his eye locked on Ryan.

"I won't advise that now but it won't be too bad." Dr. Sanders responded. "We can always continue the treatment in his human form though it will take longer to heal."

"I know. Please take of his cast and leave ordered quietly, his eyes still on Ryan. "Lip?" his friend when he made to pass by him us." Jeremy He stopped.

"Yes Alpha?"

"I'm sorry about before." He apologized quietly. Though it was only natural for him to act as he had when he saw another man's hands on his mate, Jeremy thought he should apologize.

"Don't worry man. I understand." Philip responded with amusement in his voice. Jeremy knew he was going to get it so bad from his friend later, but he didn't care. "I'll go bring him some clothes to wear." He said, slapping Jeremy on his back before exiting the room. Jeremy went to the door and locked it after the last person had exited. Then he went to sit beside the beautiful white wolf on the bed. His mate. Jeremy tentatively reached out to touch Ryan but the wolf growled low in his throat. He obviously still didn't trust Jeremy. The alpha's heart sunk. Ryan was okay with Philip touching him but he

obviously didn't want him to. That was only to be expected but it still hurt.

'I just want to help you shift.' Jeremy said softly through their link. Jeremy tried again when Ryan stopped growling. The wolf's eyes still watched Jeremy with distrust. But he allowed him to touch him, and then stroke him. And his touch felt so soothing and calming, Ryan leaned more into it. Philip's hands had felt nowhere as good as Jeremy's, which was rather strange Ryan.

'You can shift now.' Jeremy whispered and watched with a content expression on his face as Ryan shifted with cheeky ease. The pain and discomfort that had accompanied each of his previous shifts was absent. Ryan blinked up at Jeremy, whose hand was slowly stroking his stomach, and suppressed a moan. As a wolf, he'd thought Jeremy was hot but from a human's perspective, the man was gut-numbingly gorgeous. "You okay?" Jeremy asked softly.

Ryan could only nod. There was a fluttering inside his stomach that had nothing to do with hunger for food.
