[Time skip! At Alex's packs pack house.]
Alex's POV
————
I managed to get James out of the Easternspring's pack without being noticed by any of the EasternSprings pack members. By the time I got him to the car he was fast asleep.
Once we arrived at my packs house my betas and I took him to my packs clinic so the nurse, Kathleen can check for injuries (since he was obviously injured because of how his ribs hurt when I tried to pick him up) and she bandaged his rib cage and all the other places that showed signs of harm that she could see without undressing James.
James was fast asleep by the time we arrived to my pack house and is still sleeping now in one of the hospital beds that we have in our pack houses clinic, with me sitting on a chair beside James watching over him to make sure he's okay.
Dante stirs around in my head, worried, and scared for our small fragile mate.
Once I know James is okay I'm going to destroy everyone that harmed him. I will not show mercy.
"Alpha, I found something that you will probably need to know about James. May I speak to you?" Says Kathleen in a soft voice with sadness and worry flooding over her eyes as she looked up at me. "Yes you may, is there something wrong?" I say with a stern voice as I kept my gaze on James, not moving from my seat beside the hospital bed that James is fast asleep in.
"I think so.... I found scars on the insides of James's wrists and arms. I think that they were caused by self harm from how the scars look and where they are." Kathleen's voice goes quiet while saying the last two parts and my eyes widen once I'm able to take in what she said and I look up at her with shock obvious on my face and look back down at James.
I gently pick up his forearm making sure not to wake him up as I slowly pull down his sleeve enough for me to believe what the nurse had just told me. My eyes widen in shook as I take in the sight before me, his arms. Covered in scars.
'When we get our hands on the people who made our mate so unhappy to a point where he started cutting I will not hesitate to take control and rip them to shreds.' Dante growls, thinking about what kind of pain our James must have been put through.
Tears of both, overwhelming anger and sadness start to prickle at the corners of my eyes as I kneel down at James's bedside and bring his arm up to my lips, placing light soft kisses on each scar and then placing his arm down and looking at him, peacefully sleeping.
He's so beautiful....
[Time skip! 45 minutes later]
I had been on my phone for the past half an hour or so, telling my what happened when I was in the EasternSpringPack's house since I didn't really talk to them much since all of my attention was on James in the car ride back to my pack.
But I looked up from my phone as James stirred in his sleep, he's waking up now...
James's POV
————
I wake up to see myself in some kind of room...
All of a sudden the events that happened a couple of hours ago starts to thrash back into my memory's.
Am I finally free?....
How'd I get here. Where am I?
My attention quickly goes off where I am as a sharp pain shoots through my ribs. I wince in pain but try to ignore it as I look around (whoa, this is the first time I've slept in a bed... it's warm...) my attention slowly goes to my arms and ribs as I notice that my that cuts on my arm are all bandaged up and so are my beaten up ribs....
Why is someone taking care of me? Why did that man take me out of the basement? I'm nothing. I'm so utterly useless. If I were that man I'd just leave me to die...
I look around the room I'm in (still laying down, not moving) and I see the man who took me from the basement beside me. Now that I can get a good look at him I notice that breathtakingly handsome.. and he also looks very intimidating and strong.
I think I remember his name being... Alex? Will he hurt me like the people from my pack?!
I'm scared...
My eyes widen and my heart beats rapidly as my social anxiety starts to go wild and my breathing becomes frantic and shaky. He looks up at me and I begin to panic more. 'He's our mate! Don't be afraid James! He won't hurt us like our pack did!'
My eyes start to water up with tears as I can feel a panic attack emerging.
I can't focus on what Quinn is saying due to how panicked I am. His eyes meet mine and in an instant his expression becomes worried. "It's okay, Shhh... you're safe. Don't be scared." His voice is husky and deep.
Alex leans closer to me to softly cup my cheeks and I flinch as his hands brush the surface of my face, I feel sparks and I pause, shocked from the feeling but ignore it.
I start quietly whimpering, trying to move my away from him as I am scared of the contact because of certain situations at my old pack...
He pauses when he noticed my actions and I could see his eyes flashing between his usual eye color and color dark blue.
(Alpha werewolf's eyes change color with different emotions. Alex's eyes change to dark blue when he is worried and his eyes change black when he is when his wolf is surfacing or when he is lustful.)
Alex down and squints his eyes, keeping them closed for a couple of seconds before looking back up at me with his eyes back to their normal color. He looks deep into my eyes and I look into his. Memorized by how beautiful are. After a couple of seconds I turn my head away from him and shy away from his entrancing gaze.
He cautiously and slowly places his hand on my jaw clutching it in a firm grip (but not in a way that would harm me) and makes me face him, and yet again, I feel sparks. I melt into his touch.
Why am I acting like this?! I need to get ahold of myself! This man might be as dangerous, or even more so then the people who would beat me at my pack. I quickly get control of myself, trying to not sound as terrified as I am when I ask him
"W-where a-am I?" I say with a shaky voice just over a whisper. Dammit James!!
'No matter how hard you try to be tuff, you soft af.'
'Shut it Quinn, I'm trying my best.'
'Try harder!'
'That was me trying harder!!!'
( sorry 😆)
I was about to argue with Quinn some more but my attention immediately when to Alex and I forgot all about arguing with Quinn when Alex started talking.
"You're in my pack house, Mate."
