Richard's POV(SURPRISEEEE)
"What's the matter Richard?" Roseanna asked me as she entered our bathroom and left the door slightly open.
I ran my hand furiously through my hair as the images of that damn wolf growling at me as he held onto Danica(last chapter when Aiden growled at him) . What right does he have? Growling at me and touching her. My mate!
Danica. She's suppose the be the one I married, the one I spend my life with but here I was spending it with hermother while she watched. It's beyond rude of me, I know but I have no other choice. God, why didn't the Goddessgive me a mate my own age like every other male wolf out there? And one that isn't my stepdaughter. I knowDanica hated me for what I've been doing and I want her forgiveness-Fuck that, I need it but it's hard enough.Now, harder considering that wolf boy is getting too close to her for comfort.
"I'm fine honey." I replied.
"We've been married for two years Richard, I know when something is bothering you."
"Yeah well then you would of seen I've been bothered for all of those two years..." I muttered so softly so she wouldn'tbe able to hear.
Roseanna stuck her head out of the bathroom door and narrowed her eyes at me. "What was that?"
"Nothing Rose, Nothing nothing."
I heard her sigh and exit the bathroom while I laid back on the bed with my eyes shut. The bed dipped then I felther weight ontop of me. My eyes shot open as I stared at Roseanna with a raised brow.
"Maybe I can help you with that.. You know..we haven't done anything since Dani's birthday and
I think it's a bit overdue." She said with a wink and I cringed internally. I avoided any sexual contact with Rose since Danica found out we were mates. I mean, yeah we did it before and I knew Danica was my mate but now it'sway more different. She actually knows now and the pull is stronger, it feels wrong having sex with anyone buther. Dani is my mate but I know there is no way she is going to want anything to do with me in that way for a veryvery long time if at all.
Maybe it wouldn't hurt .. Hell, It might even help me think straight. I need a good release to clear
my head.
I smirked at Roseanna and gripped her waist as my hand found it's way around.
Danica's POV
"He said he loves me cuz I'm loyal..loyal. Put none above me cuz I'm loyal, loyal. He fuckin' with me cuz I'm loyal,loyal..." I sang out another favorite song of mine, FWU by Kehlani while I made my bed. Aiden was taking a shower so he could go see his parents then do perimeter checks with my Alpha. In a way, I was kind of sad we couldn'tspend the day together. His attention was really comforting, especially with everything going on- I needed it. I hadwashed the clothes he was wearing and dried them so he'd have something to wear. I had suggested to Aiden towear something of Richard's but he said he'd rather go naked. As much as I knew Aiden had no issue with walkingaround my pack in his birthday suit-because he is an extremely bold person- I on the other hand was against it.Other females seeing his...'parts', the thought bothered me in a type of way. Maybe I am crazy, Aiden isn't mine ormy mate so I have no right to be possessive over him or his decisions. Why couldn't I get a mate like him? One whowould be there for me, protect me, love me but no. I had to get stuck with my irritating asshole of a step-dad. TheMoon Goddess really is a being of wonders but I recalled something Aiden told me.
"She never makes mistakes. Every pair is paired for a reason."
I wanted to believe that, I really did but there is no reason why she would mate me to a man like twice my own ageand my own suppose-to-be father figure.
"Dani! Can you pass me my clothes?"
I turned around to see Aiden's long hand sticking out of the bathroom door, waiting for me to put his clothes inthem. Shaking my head, I stopped fixing my bed and made my way to the laundry room. "Going to get them! Holdon!"
As I walked down the hallway, my face began to feel hot and my head slightly pounded as an oncoming headache made itself known.
Am I sick? Wait, that's a stupid question, Werewolves don't get sick. I pushed the sudden body changed aside andwent the laundry room. I collected Aiden's clothes and walked back upstairs. As I passed Richard's and my mom'sbedroom I heard a loud THUMP. What the hell? Did she fall?
I made way to open the door and check to see if she was alright, but I was somewhat hesitant and felt like Ishouldn't. As I stood infront of the door, I pressed my ear against the door to see if I heard anything but I couldn't. Itwas dead silent but then I remembered my mother has sound proof walls. So she could be screaming like a stabbedpig in there and I wouldn't hear anything. My body felt really tense and beads of sweat dripped down my face and onto the floor. My hands felt clammy and I struggled to stay on my feet.
"Aiden...hallway." I muttered through out mind link and within moments Aiden bursted out of my room and was by myside, holding my hand.
"Dani.. what's wrong? Talk to me, come on." He coached but I had a hard time focusing on what
was going on. What was happening to me? My mind was here but it wasn't, my body felt here but it wasn't. Asickening burn spread across my body and I felt like screaming but I couldn't. My neck and lower body burned like Iwas set on fire or had acid thrown on me. I thrashed in Aiden's arms as he attempted to pick me up. The more hetouched me, the more it hurt.
"NO NO! STOP IT. DON'T TOUCH ME!" I screamed and he gently put me down then stepped away.
"Aiden..help me. What's going on?" I muttered between tears as he had such a torn look on his face, I know Aidenwanted to help me, but he couldn't.
My mother's bedroom burst open and I glanced up to see her looking around frightened, as she fixed her robe overher expose nipple.
"Danica! Sweetheart, are you okay?!" She exclaimed as she kneeled down beside me. The burning slowly relaxedand went away. Then my gaze trailed over to Richard, who was behind my mother, staring down at me with ahurtful expression.
Oh, I see.. Realization dawned on as I comprehended what was happening. I was feeling the aftermath of Richardhaving sex with my mother. Acid piled up in my throat as I felt like throwing up.
A sudden growl from Aiden slightly frightened me but I brushed it off and wiped away my almost fallingtears. "Aiden, Help me up please."
"Danica? Baby, what's going on? Why are you so pale and on the floor?" My mother exclaimed yet again but the very sound of her voice was pissing me off more and more. Aiden gently helped me up and allowed me to leanagainst him for support.
"Danica h-"
"Leave me alone mother." I hardly replied and gestured towards my bedroom as Aiden helped me.
I could imagine how my harsh outburst probably hurt my mother and hurting her is something I never wanted to do...
But she has no idea how much she has been hurting me as well...
