The Blue Wolf
Chapter 15

Arabella’s Perspective:

The woman shook my hand “I’m Nina. Sweetheart I’m so sorry that William marked you without your consent. I only hope that it doesn’t hurt so bad. I know you don’t heal like us yet.”

I laughed “It hurts like hell but who cares? Not me, nothing matters at this point anyway, because I can tell all of you genuinely believe whatever bullshit that you do. So where’s the rest of the cult? Don’t you have a husband I am yet to be introduced to?” Sophie let out an amused laugh.

The woman looked at me unamused by my antics, but she remained completely respectful “Yes dear I do. Let’s go to the living room.”

I, Nina, and Sophie went downstairs into the living room. When I saw their living room I was shocked. I knew very well that they were rich as hell. But their living room was something out of a Royal’s House. I tried to play it off cool. Like I didn’t care.

Once we were near one of the sofas, I saw a man that looked like a mix of Nico and Will, just older. He shook my hand, “Lovely to finally meet you, my child, we have been waiting for you a long time. I’m Christopher, Nina’s husband, you can call me Chris.” I gave the man a stupid smile “Okay Chris.”

We all sat down awkwardly. I, Sophie, and Nina are on one side of the room, Will, Chris, and Nico on the other side. William was looking at me like he was examining me, but it’s strange. It didn’t make me feel uncomfortable at all. It made me feel warm. What a strange thing to feel.

Christopher began speaking with no awkwardness at all “So Arabella tell us about yourself?”

I crossed my legs and looked at him with a soft smile “Like what?” He said, “Oh anything, about yourself dear.”

I laughed hysterically at the absurdity of this entire situation as everyone looked at me concerned. Once I calmed down, I looked at Chris in the eyes psychotically “Okay…. well the most important thing about me right now is that I’m someone who has been kidnapped, then abused by your lovely son, Will and all of you won’t let me leave.”

Nico started laughing “Man I love that.” Everyone else seemed serious. Nina turned her body to me “Arabella the thing is. You’re not safe out there, here you’re very safe, outside our grounds, many people are on the hunt for you, if you go back to your life someone will kidnap you again, and most likely hurt you.”

I looked at this woman with nothing but utter rage. I stood up ready for anything and pointed at the disgusting wound on my neck. “Ma’am very funny you say that. Your son dug his teeth into my neck.” I made a large circle movement with my hands and arms “On these grounds. Please just let me go. You guys have the wrong woman. I’m not William’s mate.”

Everyone gave me a look of horror as we heard Will growl. Will got up quickly “This was a terrible idea. I’m sorry Mom. But: All of you, GO. Ara goes back upstairs.”

Everyone slowly got up. Sophie came up to me and put her hand on my shoulder and looked at me sympathetically, she whispered in my ear:

“If you try to speak to me I’ll hear you, if he tries anything, call me, I’ll be there in five.” I understood exactly what Sophie meant.

Everyone left the house. I stayed standing where I was, fearful of what was going to happen to me. Will turned to me angrily “What are you playing at?” I said, “Nothing, I just wanna go home.”

He looked at me with frustration: “You don’t know anything about the Blue Wolf, do you? You made that all up?”

Suddenly all the manic energy I had from earlier vanished in a second. I no longer felt strong or fierce. I just slouched on the couch and looked up at the huge beautiful chandelier in the center of the ceiling.

Will walked closer to me, then spoke again “Tell me.” Still looking at the chandelier I said in a pleading tone “William. Please let me go back home. I promise I’ll never tell anyone that werewolves exist, they wouldn’t believe me anyway.”

Will’s voice was soft now too. “I can’t do that.” I got up then, walked towards him slowly. I looked him directly in the eyes as I said “Then I’ll never be yours.” He reached out with his hand and brushed my cheek with the back of his fingers “Arabella you already are mine.” I gave him no reaction to that, then I started walking back up the stairs. I shut the light of the room and crawled back into bed feeling defeated. The door of the room opened. I knew it was Will.

He closed the door and got into bed with me on the other side, not bothering me on my side. I started getting up to go, to find another room to be sad in when he said with agony in his voice “Don’t go, I promise I won’t touch you. But it’s too hard not being around you right now.”

I thought about it for a minute and I decided, even if I did go, he’d probably just follow me. And he wasn’t touching me at the moment. So I decided to stay.

I fell asleep very quickly turned away from him.

William’s Perspective:

I was so glad she had stayed. I couldn’t seem to stay away from her for very long after I marked her.

It was killing me every second of the day that she wasn’t warming up to me at all. I knew she had been asleep for around half an hour. She was completely unaware of everything that I was about to do.

I slowly got closer to her and wrapped my arm around her body. I stuffed my face in the crook of her neck. I felt a peace wash over me. It was something I had never felt before. And before I knew it I was asleep too.

Arabella’s Perspective:

I had woken up about twenty minutes ago, with Will’s arm tightly wrapped around me and his face in my neck. His light stubble tickled my neck. His arm felt so strong and protective around me. I looked at the clock on Will’s wall. The time was 4 o clock in the afternoon. Had we slept that long together?

I knew we both knew the other was awake. I couldn’t decide on what to do with anything anymore. On one hand, I knew I was kidnapped and then abused. I knew I had an outside life, on these grounds. And that I loved my outside life. I had suspicions that Will was somehow trying to manipulate me into becoming happy here.

On the other hand, I felt incredibly attracted to Will. I felt comfortable with his siblings. I fantasized about kissing William. I felt safe with William. And maybe I just didn’t understand the way werewolves worked yet. I was also still in shock from learning that they’re real.

Without thinking too much about it. I let my emotions take control of me. I turned around to face William, he pretended as my stirring woke him up. He reached up to my cheek and placed his fingers over it. His electric blue eyes looked at every feature on my face. He said “Hi.” I said “Hi” back.

He rose an eyebrow up at me and with a smile, he asked “What are you doing?” I said “Nothing” Before I could even comprehend it. William’s used his arm to bring me closer to him and tried to k**s me. I pulled away from him lightly “Stop” He grabbed the back of my head and said, “No, you’re mine.” His eyes were black now. Then he pulled away from me and got up, to my disappointment. Wait for what? Why was I disappointed? Why was I even in bed with him?

He said “Arabella I’m going to go to the hallway washroom to shower and get ready. You can use my washroom, let’s meet in the kitchen in twenty-five minutes, that enough time for you?”

I nodded. He grabbed a pair of jeans, boxers, socks, and a black T-shirt before he walked to the door, “Okay my love, see you in a bit.” Then he walked out.
