Taming The Beast In Him
Sinister smile

Roseline POV.

When I heard the words of my mother, I don't know why there was that determination in me, the spirit to fight to my last. My eyes blazed and I came to realize that I have a lot to do and learn as well.

My thoughts swirl in my mind, but the only thing that preoccupied my mind was the thought of saving my mate. the bleeding thought of someone or something around him, I felt the need to do the right thing. My breathing was even and I was almost losing hope, my heart was beating so fast, that I couldn't think straight, the thought of everything happening to me and the pain my mate was experiencing was making me feel and groan even louder. But after I heard the voice of my mother and gee simple words of encouragement, I was determined to fight for my mate and bring him back to me, so despite the pain, I was feeling, I continued moving I continued struggling towards the woods, I came to realize that it was the little life in me that was still keeping him safe and alive, the thought of meeting him and helping him, made me Drew in a deep breath, my heart was beating gently, unlike the fast pace of earlier on. After three days on all fours and struggling to reach my destination, I finally reached my destination, I was breathing so hard and I was smelling of sweat.

I was in the forest and I needed time to observe my environment, I can feel his heartbeat, it was very faint, which meant that he was about to take his last, and the Hope I had Earlier on, was slowly diminishing.

I want to feel his strong arms around, feeling its warmth and caressing my skin, but today for the first time I'm scared, I'm scared of everything, that I won't see him aga...

I couldn't finish my thoughts, when a familiar sent refills my nostrils, I had to hide behind a tree while still on all fours, my heart was beating so fast and I needed to calm down, I Drew in a deep breath while telling myself that everything would be fine, even though deep within me, I'm not feeling that way.

He kept on walking through the streets of the pack, he then sprawled a sinister smile on his face, I then muffled a groan, I can't possibly go and fight him.

I know it's been there days, and I am curious to know if my mate is here or not, I can feel his life depreciating and is scarce.

I was silent while trying to calm myself down, I can feel everything, the pain, the longing, And how much he craved to be free, I wish I could help, but I felt him so close yet from me.

I hid under the tree for what seemed like an eternity, waiting for them to dismiss themselves but they stayed there, almost like my lurking scent still existed in the air, almost Like I'm close to them yet far away from replaceing me.

"Rose, come out now, we have many things that talk about, you need to come out" he yelled in the thin air, his voice was trembling almost like he was about to cry, it was clear in his eyes, but he was proving strong not to look vulnerable in the eyes of his men.

After countless minutes of searching he left, I couldn't bring myself to attack them because I was hungry and I needed some food to recuperate my strength and revive my energy.

My thoughts swirled around me, and the thought to help And be helped was there, I couldn't bring myself to say a word, but I knew that deep down I have messed up a big time, I felt the need to do the right thing, my heart was beating so fast and I needed time to recuperate myself, I don't know what else to do, the only thing I needed right now was how to get my mate back.

I managed to crawl out of my hiding with my sore feet, feeling pain. I started searching for any traces, but the place was silent, almost like there was no one in the pack.

My heart sank while looking at the drastic changes that had occurred while I was being taken against my will.

I kept on looking for anyone or anything, but there was no one, I had to transform into my human self, while left naked and my skin bares to the air.

Just looking at myself naked, a blush managed to creep on my cheeks when I remembered how we were both bare to each other and the way he had bored his eyes into mine.

I immediately dismissed that thought, because it was no time to think about all that, but it was rather to think of replaceing a solution, I couldn't think of a better solution now that everything is happening to me.

"Rose" I could hear his voice as it called out to me, it was close yet distant, I closed my eyes and listened to his voice.

"Where are you?" I asked so eagerly, I had never been so desperate to replace someone because I know the lurking danger around him. I think it's the effects of the bond that allows me to feel everything.

I drew in a deep breath while trying to recuperate my thoughts, only to hear his faint voice.

"I need to leave the pack, she's... she's coming..." He stuttered, I could feel his pain, my body was also aching so badly and I needed to save him wherever he is, my heart clenched at the slight thought of what he was about to experience, I don't know where I'll be able to replace him right now.

But I don't know what he meant by she's coming, I turned around to see if there was anyone around, but there was no one, it was only me while looking for nothing.

I rushed to my apartment where we have shared so many memories with Jefferson before I picked some clothes and hurriedly wore them on.

In hurried search of my mate, I left the apartment before I was met by those familiar eyes, long slender fingers, and a very deadly gaze that can penetrate the soul, my heart ached, so many thoughts preoccupied my mind and I felt like I have failed.

"Welcome to the world of mine, where only the powerful succeed and the sinister live longer," she said with a smirk.
