Still dominant

BANE'S POV
I watched as Renee took a breath wondering if she'd continue.

"You did make a mistake, and while I appreciate that you can admit it your also right that a simple 'im sorry' wont do a damn thing to help." I watched her face become a bit red, "I went through hell in this pack... years and years of mental, emotional and physical abuse! The one thing that kept me from ending my life was my wolf.. though I couldn't hear her then I knew she'd want us to find our mate. And I waited so long..." I watched the tears slide down her beautiful face, and itched to wipe them away, but I stayed seated knowing she wouldn't want me to.

"And finally the day came and I was rejected, almost raped and when my own mate who is supposed to love me, cherish me and protect me..." a sob breaks free, "calls me a whore....and then goes to another female." She shake her head.

Where would I even begin to make up for my mistake? How could I prove to her that I will be there when she needs me, and trusts me to do so?

"Let me take over! Alex demands.

I sigh, but do as he said. He pushes forward as I am pushed back.

::Alex::

I stand and go to my hurting mate, I crush her to my chest and just hold her as she tries to struggle..

"Let go!" She cries and it breaks my heart.

"Mate calm down, please..." I beg.
She pushes harder, "I said let go Bane!! Now!"

"I am not Bane, I am his wolf Alex." I say calmly, she suddenly stops struggling and I look down.

Her big blue eyes that are now glassy due to her tears are staring up at me. I slowly, and lovingly wipe her tears away.

"Xavier, why? Why did he reject me and Seira? Was I not enough?" She sobs.

I cup her face making her look at me. "Do not ever think that you or Shannon aren't good enough, you are both perfect. Bane. Bane just had a moment of...stupidity.. I cannot make you give him another chance, but I need you and so does Bane. I love you so much little one." I kiss her cheek slowly so she can pull away if wanted but she doesnt.

I become extremely happy but dont dare show it. "I cant take away what happened but Bane and I can take the pain away. Bane realized his error and searched for you, he wouldnt sleep wouldnt eat.. I only ask for a small amout of faith that he has changed. Let us make it up to you" I was close to going to my knees, even though Im Alpha for my mate and love I would do what I needed to win her back.

She stared at me for a moment, her tears dried up. She sighed. "I will think about it Alex."

I can't help the sadness I feel but I nod, "I understand." She stood to leave then paused, she turned and flung herself at me, her lips hit mine in a passionate filled kiss. I immediately responded, wrapping my arms around her waist.

She pulled away slowly, and I noticed her eyes which were a bright blue now darker. Which meant...

"I love you Alex, but Renee will need time. She was devastated when she got rejected. She was dreaming, hoping, and praying our mate would save her from the beatings and the insults..." Shannon says.

"And Bane, I know you can hear me.. I forgive you, but I will not stand for you hurting her again. If you do I will hurt you." She threatens then walks to the door. She turns as she opens it and winks before disappearing.

Dont fuck this up Bane!!! I warn and hand him control again.

RENEE'S POV
"Oh my god!!!! Please, please please Derrick dont leave me!!! Keep your eyes open!!!" I screamed at him, my hands and shirt covered in his blood.

I could hear his heart beat slowing, and his eyes began to flutter closed but I shook him, the tears wouldnt stop.

"DON'T JUST FUCKING STAND THERE!! HELP HIM!!!" I yelled at the two pack members that were on patrol with us.

But they didn't move they stood there just watching. I was about to yell again when something caught my attention then I seen her.. I was wondering what she was doing here when I felt something hit me hard on the back of the head making me see spots... Then darkness took me.

**hour earlier**

"Derrick, Renee my office." Bane said in his Alpha tone. Though it had no effect on me, Derrick flinched. It honestly made me mad. There is no reason to use it on us.

After we walked in to the office I shut the door behind me. And looked at Bane.

"Derrick you work border tonight with Alex. Renee you will stay here and observe everyone that's off duty. They will be here in the pack house tonight." He explained and I sighed.

"Yes more time with our mate! Shannon says.
"Renee you okay?" Derrick asks me and I look at him with a small smile.

"I am, be careful tonight Derrick I caution, worried for my friend. Over the days he has learned the territory grounds but I still fear for him.

He nods and stands, I wait to be dismissed noticing the distant look that we know to well when mind-linking.

"Alex will be here to show you your post." Bane says just as Alex walks in.

Derrick pats my arm encouragingly before leaving. I sigh aloud. Great a night without my Derrick. The Derrick who makes me feel comfortable in this horrible place...

"Renee." Bane says so softly it feels like a caress against my skin causing me to shiver in response. I turn to look at Bane and not realizing that while I was lost in thought he had moved closer causing my face to hit his chest as I turned instantly sending sparks through me at the contact.

I backed up and looked up at him, his eyes gentle but what was in them was pure longing, desire, lust and...love...

I had to look away, "what?" I ask, it barely coming out as a whisper. I hated how he affected me without trying. I hated how weak I was..
"I know you aren't comfortable here.." I scoff at that but he continues. "I will do my best to keep you comfortable, to make you feel safe. I know I fucked up, but once this is over I want no I'm asking... "

When he stopped I looked up at him, he looked nervous, I mean really nervous... He was chewing his bottom lip and he looked like he was trying to fins the words...

"Spit it out Bane.." I said, though surprisingly it came out gentle instead of rude.

"Will you stay long enough to go on a date with me?" He asked quickly but I understood.

I stared at him at a loss for how I wanted to respond. Do I chance getting hurt? Or do I take a chance that I won't?.
