Chapter 16: I choose her

I continued to stand speechless.

“You can't answer me, can't you, she said. For I know you don't love that woman upstairs,” she said in tears while she removed her hand from my chest pointing upstairs.

I tried to answer her, but I couldn't the right words could not escape my mouth. My lips trembled trying to search for answers, but I couldn't find any.

I quickly moved away from her and went inside her refrigerator for a bottle of juice and poured out a cupful.

“Liam, Jennifer kept on bothering me; Just answer me and I won't bother you anymore,” she said.

I heavily place down the bottle of juice on the counter allowing it to spill all over my hand and the counter. Wishing she could stop doing this.

Deep down I still love paisley, but I didn't know if I would choose Avery over her if she was still here; thinking about choosing between them both created a heavy pain within my heart.

“Just stop,” I begged my mom; while she kept begging me to answer her. The pain I felt had started to hurt even more. I quickly share out some food. I saw had prepared. Brown rice, curry chicken, and string beans.

Suddenly I felt a great urge to get upstairs as if something was wrong. I quickly took up the juice and left her.

“You don't love her!” she shouted; as I went off. Her words echoed within my head, like a bell.

I entered my room and there I and my mate eyes met. She was no longer lying down.

Inside I was overwhelmed she was awoken.

“You're up, wild she-wolf, I said to her; feeling relieved. As I approached her. Here, your body needs strength,” I pushed out my hand; holding the plate of food and glass filled with juice. Giving it to her.

She said nothing staring at me with great anger; as if she was going to attack me.

I knew she didn't trust me, but I wish she could at least see I was trying. No matter how I tried, she would keep pushing me away.

As I stared at her across the room from me; I started to worry if she ever will accept me as her mate when she does find out we belong together. Getting rid of that bad though. I called out to her; showing my soft side.

Most people who knew me had never seen that side of me except for Paisley and now her.

“Come, sit,” I instructed her. Placing down the plate on the bed; while handing her the juice.

I wanted to smile while I saw her held onto each end of her dress. Coming closer to me.

Getting closer to her alpha. Her alpha mate.

I could feel my wolf wanting to jump within me excitedly; while I stared at her as she got closer.

Her waist moved from side to side. She walked so sexily. Her body moved as gently as the sea rushing upon the shore and slowly moved back into the ocean.

Suddenly she lashed out at me angrily; hitting away the juice from my hand and the plate from the bed. Breathing heavily.

“I'm tired, I'm tired” she repeated as she cried out. As she stared at me seriously.

The juice spilled on me, running from my hand dripping onto the floor; while I stared at her worriedly.

Angry as hell she ripped off the dress; I had attired her; showing her bare body.

My mate was broken and hurt; whatever had happened to her. It messes her up badly; causing her to never trust anyone. A man, for she seemed to be close with Eutis. As I was about to calm her down; telling her I will protect her and that she could feel safe with me.

She pushed her naked body against me; while I stood as still as a post; worried about her. Allowing me to feel the warmness and the curve of her voluptuous body.

“Do whatever you want with me,” she said, allowing me to feel her sweet breath against my face.

“Take me please,” she begged him.

Grabbing my hands; placing them on her large ass.

I slowly moved my hand from her firm ass; angry at what she thought I was.

I wanted her, yes, but I was not that type of person to take advantage of a beautiful woman.

Who the fuck had hurt her had made her think all men were the same. I was hurt; solving what had broken her.

“Do whatever you want with me, Liam!” my mate shouted my name in tears. Grabbing on to my chest, pulling my suit.

I lower my head; not being able to bear seeing my young beautiful mate in such away.

I slowly raised my head again staring at her sad large blue eyes.

She lowers her head, resting her forehead on my chest weeping.

My eyes became filled with tears; seeing her so fucking broken.

I wanted to know who did this to her who the fucking hell hurt my she-wolf and had broken her spirit. My hands tighten into a fist; while she cried; soaking my suit with her tears.

Broken she removes herself from me and threw herself to the floor. I quickly caught her in time; holding her into my arms.

I wanted to tell her everything was going to be fine, but she will never believe me nor trust me.

She closed her eyes; while I held her close against my body and sat on my bed. Trying to comfort her without words in hugging her closely. Her lip trembled as I held her.

I slowly pulled the white sheet from the bed, bringing it to her body hiding her nakedness; while she laid within my arms. Her body jumped frightening, opening her eyes. She stared at me surprisingly seeing I had hidden her nakedness and that I did not try to take advantage of her body.

As she stared into my dark eyes. I could see her blue eyes weren't filled with anger anymore; while they filled with tears. I raised my right hand stroking her soft long white hair gently. I bring her body, even more, closer to mine.

I moved my head close to her kissing her on her forehead, sadly. I felt tears escape from my eyes falling onto her forehead running onto her face. She slowly raised her head again staring into my eyes.

I then knew she was the one. The only woman for me.

she was the answer to my mother's question. I choose her.

I choose her.
