Chapter 47
“do you know what it would cost your pack to reject Phil?” shaking my head. She sniffs the air cocks her head to the side “you really don’t know anything about our pack do you?” shaking my head again “I mean I thought I had but then they did what they did.” I tell her as I stare out the window watching the lands go by. This is nothing like my pack. Here is nothing but wide-open spaces. Sections for different crops and animals. Fall in love with the land the more I see of it. “so does every wolf in the pack live in the underground house?” “Phil calls it the pack house den. And yes the pack is set up like family and family life together. Although the pack house has expanded over the years now probably reassembles an underground city.” she tells me
“the contract the black rose has with the winters states no one from either pack can reject a mate from either pack. The rejecting pack surrenders everything to the other pack. Meaning since you rejected Phil the winter lose the throne. The rejecting pack loses all stock they hold in the other pack's bushiness holdings. So by you rejecting Phil your family no longer is the ruling family.” gasping at what I am hearing. Had I known I wouldn't have rejected him. But I couldn’t tell father either I was already set to be mated to Jacob. But then father ordered me to mate Jacob anyways even after I told him Jacob wasn’t my mate. “I told my father when I was brought back Jacob wasn’t my mate. But he ordered me to mate with him and tell no one he’s not my fated mate. What was I to do it was an alpha order and I don’t have a wolf so I can't fight it even a little.” dropping my head in shame tears streaming down my cheeks.
All I know is that I rejected you and had to mate with Jacob even more than before. So much my father ordered me to. I have no idea what Samuels has on my father and I don’t care. I was then locked in my room until the morning of the ceremony when my grandmother violated me to make sure I was still a virgin. Like I could have lost it the goddess wouldn't allow that. Then I was positioned or drugged and Jacob's parents performed painful spells on me and talked about how Mr white was going to violate me once Jacob took my power and the master had his heir. then I was dressed in a horrible ugly heavy itchy dress and then sent to stand by Jacob to be marked and violated in front of the pack. My grandmother sprayed my brother and his mate with her love mist to help them loosen up. When she came to spray me and Jacob he said he already used a spell for him as he is a witch and he added a bit of special extra to a batch to us on me. She smiled at him and agreed.
He didn’t use love mist it was a pain inducer every touch breath rubbed against my skin would be painful. Then he said he spelled my brother and his mate to not feel pain. The plan was to show him how they wanted him to treat me. If you don’t mind I would rather not think about what I see next. If you have to know you can ask your alpha. It was soon Jacob's turn to perform his ceremony that's when your alpha stopped things. And now I am here for a day or two. Soon as I find a job and place in town I will be out of your alpha's hair and I will pay back every cent he or you spend on me. I have a bank account from when I was living in a human town for the last year. I can't go back there not after the way I was ripped out of work and dragged back to the pack.” huffing out the last bit hoping she will leave it be now.
She has been nodding for a few minutes before she speaks again “what if Phil wants you to stay here?” I laugh “I was stuck in the truck with him for three hours and I had no effect on him and I could no longer smell him. So one plus one equals he would rather me not be around. I mean I thank the goddess that he saved me but it probably has more to do with what is right and wrong than anything else. Dropping in the car seat I sip on my coffee. Hoping its warmth will reach my core. “if he didn’t want you to stay he wouldn't have asked for you to be put on the long-term guest wing. So he doesn't plan to kick you off the lands. So don’t rush things from what I heard you got some healing to do. And the only limit I have for Phil's card is don’t break the bank. So I dough he plans for you to pay him back.” she tells me I just shrug.
The remainder of the drive was quiet. Waiting to get to town. Once I know where I am I can get a better handle on what to do next. Pulling into a small mountain community I was presently surprised to see a branch of my bank here in town. Glancing over I decided it best to keep to myself. She seems to be here to get information from me. And I gave her all I know so now it's just to get things and go back. I will slip away and go to the bank get some money and disappear. Doing the math for gas prices food and lodging planning to close my account leaving the amount it would have cost to bring me here from the castle. While driving I renounce my bonds to the winter's pack. Letting the pain wash over me. Using the fact that my wolf left me a long while ago as the buffer of the pain. If I had my wolf it would have hurt a lot more than it did. Also not having a wolf means I won't go mad and my scent won't start to rot with it. Changing my scent to that of rot and decay. No wolf no need to be with others no madness. I smell like a human and human scents wash away faster not having the same oils we do. They don’t use scent to navigate their world like we do. I have spent the last year with just above a human and have learned how to live as a human.
