My Snippets: Part 2

Rejected Mate - Part 2

The man scratched his chin in thought as he continued to observe her before he finally spoke. "We need to first find out who she is and where she came from." Itachi turned to the larger lycan standing next to her then to address him specifically. "Where did you find her, Sasuke?" A short and awkward pause with a stare-off ensued thereafter... before the guy nodded. "So... she was an intruder on the western portion of our lands then you—" A silent and deep warning growl sounded quickly from the black wolf interrupting him, and a knowing look passed between the siblings before he continued. "Very well then, little brother. Take the she-wolf to your personal chambers until she shifts into her human form, then you can bring her downstairs to the dining hall. We will discuss things further over dinner."

She felt herself being lifted once more by the scruff and soon she found herself backtracking down the corridors once more in her capture's strong jaws.

Minutes later...

She was standing on top of his bed, her paws sinking into the plush mattress below while one of his pillows was held firmly between her teeth. Sasuke glared at her...daring her to destroy something else of his... and she gladly obliged, showing him a wolfy smirk before doing just that. Feathers flew around her head as she ripped the delicate fabric into tiny pieces and he let out a huff in response to her childish behaviors while rolling his eyes in his wolf form. So far, the pinkette had absolutely refused to shift and she knew that at this point it was grating on the lycan's nerves... much to both her and her wolf's amusement. Luna was play bowing in her mind's eye, with her tongue sticking out and her tail wagging. It made Sakura want to giggle, but she didn't.

Instead, she continued with her task of destruction until the pillow was a messy pile of feathers and shredded material, before she sat quietly on her haunches, glaring at the wolf across from her. Sasuke was an absolutely massive lycan compared to her, and could have easily crushed her but he had been so gentle with her up to this point... and she was attributing it to the fact that they were somehow mates.

That was still a matter that she needed to explore, but until then— a sharp knock sounded on the door behind him and the lycan moved to the side, before allowing the person on the other side to enter. It was a woman... of similar stature (and looks) to the male named Itachi and she had an air of authority around her that gave Sakura pause, wonderment filling her for a brief moment in time.

'This must be the previous alpha's Luna... their mother...'

Instinctively... when the older she-wolf attempted to move closer to her, Sakura growled and watched as the woman paused, a strange look twisting her expression before she shook her head and tsked in the back of her throat. "Young lady, this is no way to act. Especially towards your mother-in-law."

'Wait, did she just say...'

Her expression must have shown her shock for the woman smiled kindheartedly at her before taking a step forward. "I know you must have a ton of questions, child. If you would allow us the opportunity to explain, I'm sure we can clear it all up for you." Sakura didn't necessarily trust any of these lycans, but this one (and her mate if she was being honest with herself) didn't really seem to be all that bad.

Not as the folklore from her own pack portrayed them to be. Maybe, she could trust them or at least pretend to until she found a way to escape them all and return home. 'Ino must be so worried about me...'

She remained firmly in place as the woman approached her with an air of confidence that Sakura hoped to one day possess. She forced a deep growl to remain lodged in the back of her throat, while her eyes remained fixated on her slow movements before the woman sat on the end of the bed, ignoring the feathery mess scattered across it. "If you shift, child... we will explain everything further and answer any and all of your questions."

She let the repeated sentiment swirl around in her brain for a while, before giving the woman a short nod. "Good," she said while patting the bed. "...I'm Mikoto by the way." With that, she slowly stood and made her way back to the door before stopping to address the large lycan standing idly by. "Bring her down when you are both ready, my son. There is already a pair of clothes for her in your bathroom." After she left, Sasuke turned to her with a quirk of his brow, the look almost comical on a wolf.

Sakura rolled her eyes and huffed before leaping from the bed. She slowly walked by him to the bathroom door... her gaze lingering on his muscular frame for a little longer than necessary... before she turned to shut the door behind her with her muzzle. She could hear him moving about on the other side of the door and assumed that he was getting his own clothes for dinner. She took a deep breath, closed her viridescent eyes, allowing the change to slowly wash over her before she found herself seconds later standing naked in a stranger's bathroom. She turned the lock on the door to be extra cautious that Sasuke wouldn't walk in on her as she made her way to the counter.

'It's time to get some answers,' she thought as she moved to gather up the clothing laid out for her. Seconds after she had pulled the dress in place around her hips, she heard a soft, though heavy knock on the wooden door and took a deep breath before opening it to reveal her fate.

If any of these sound like your own writing or another you have read I apologize but I didn't copy anyone's work. This is entirely my own writing.
