The Eclipse (MXM)

CHAPTER 4: LEARN YOUR PLACE 🌖 TW: ATTEMPTED RAPE

In an animalistic panic, I dug my fingers into his eyes, trying to rip them from their sockets. He howled in pain, flinging me away and freeing me from his disgusting grasp simultaneously. Air burned my lungs as I coughed violently, gasping and trying to catch my breath. Before I could even stand on my feet, he had snatched me back up by the collar of my flannel sweatshirt.

"You stupid fucking mutt!" he growled. "I planned on making this enjoyable for both of us, but now I'm going to show you your place!" He shouted, throwing me onto my stomach violently.

"I'd never enjoy anything you do to me!" I said, fighting against him as much as I could, but it was a pathetic attempt at best. Even the adrenaline coursing through my body wasn't enough to help me now. His claws were digging into my skin as he ripped my clothes off, literally tearing the fabric to shreds. The pain was incredible as his nails dug into my thighs when he pulled me towards him, separating my legs. I shrieked loudly in unbearable agony, and the tears I had been managing to hold in finally streamed down my cheeks. They left a trail on my now dirt-covered face, and my hair was flopping around in a loose, messy braid full of leaves and other debris along with my golden ribbon becoming slightly undone.

He leaned over me, getting close to my ear before speaking. I could feel his hot breath on my skin, making me shudder in utter disgust. "Scream all you want; it's not going to change anything. No matter how much you say no, your body, your scent, is saying yes. I noticed it a few years ago, and since then it's only gotten stronger. Now you simply smell irresistible," he said in that deep, repugnant voice.

My eyes went wide, and I stilled at his words. What did he mean "my scent"? Dormants don't have a scent. With no pheromones, we had no scent to give off aside from soap or fragrances like perfumes or colognes of our choosing. He yanked my braid to the side, making me grunt in pain. My lip quivered as I tried to muffle my cries. If this was going to happen, I wouldn't allow him to see me broken. My pride as a wolf, dormant or not, wouldn't allow it, and I hated feeling weak.

"Let me hear that sweet voice, darlin'?" he said, licking my neck and yanking my hair again, but harder this time. I muffled my whimper from the pain with a clenched jaw, looking at him out of the corner of my eye with a seething, visceral rage as I willed my tears to stop. "Tch... I'll fix that attitude of yours. Just you wait, mutt!" he said, frustrated as if I'd ruined his fun.

"I'll kill you," I said calmly, with an eerily apathetic tone. "I swear on my life. If you do this to me, I'll—"

"YOU AIN'T GONNA DO SHIT!" he snarled, cutting me off. "You prance around here like a dormant, but I'm gonna change that. It's going to happen with or without my help." He said, sniffing me again. "Can't you see?! I'm helping you!" he said, almost sounding crazed.

I ignored him and never took my eyes off of him as he reared back, opening his mouth and preparing to bite down on my neck to leave his mark. I don't know what nonsense he was talking about, but I'd come to terms quickly in my mind that this was going to happen. It didn't matter what I said to him or how much I resisted. What I did know was that when I killed him for doing this to me, the satisfaction of revenge wouldn't be enough to quell this burning rage inside of me. I vowed to myself that no Alpha would ever hurt me again and get away with it at a young age. Johnny was no exception. So the only thing I did was watch him, his every move, and I thought about how I'd cut him into pieces as soon as I got the chance. Starting with his dick.

The forest around us seemed to go silent again, and the only thing I could hear was the loud ringing in my ears. Time seemed to slow down, my blood started to boil, and my heart rate spiked. I was indignant but also angry at myself for being so weak when I was supposed to be strong. How could I let myself get into this position, as if I were some weak Omega?! I had denounced that life. I cursed it! So how did I still end up in such a similar situation?
