The Girl He Banished

Mateo's pov

"There is a fracture in her arms, a ligament tear in her thigh and few broken bones."

"Yet what surprises me more is that her wolf is not in the picture. If it was then half of her injuries would have already healed on their own till now.”

I stare at her pale face as the doctor speaks, asking him in confusion.

"But she is a werewolf. How come her wolf is not healing her?

He sighs. Moving back to look up at me. Reluctant to answer.

"In all the cases that I have seen before. There are only 2 reasons for something like this to happen.” "The first is rejection and the second..."

He looks at her in pity. To meet my eyes.

"And the second?"

"A she wolf being forced against her will."

I go still. My heart thudding rapidly in my chest as I look at her peaceful sleeping face.

She has suffered already huh?

I wanted to feel pity. But I couldn't. She was a murderer herself. The hell will I ever feel pity for the likes of her.

My eyes take in that long scar on her cheek, that wasn't there before and I clench my fist. Another proof of her suffering?

I had this urge to touch her scar. To feel it under my fingers. When I stop myself.

Bill)

What am I gonna do now?

My hatred for her is at one side, what my people will do when they come to know she is my mate? Is a completely different story.

They lynched her father in vengeance.And if they come to know she is alive, breathing and is my mate?

I know they can go to any extent to kill her.

What else then? Should I reject her?

Her wolf is already out of picture. If I reject her, there are chances she will die right here.

Damn man! This is so messed up.

I can't let anyone know.

Till I get the seat of the Alpha King.l have to keep her hidden.

My thoughts are interrupted by the doctor leaving. And I pull a seat to sit beside her.

My eyes trailing her face to stop at her lips which were bruised. Covered in dried scraps of blood. And I couldn't help, trace those luscious lips with the pad of my thumb.

It was me who taught her how to kiss. How she nibbled on my lips the first time she tried.

How innocent she was.

Or was she fooling me all that time?

My thoughts are interrupted by her groaning in pain.Sweat covering her forehead as she moves her head in a no.

And I can’t help wonder what was she having nightmares about?

When she made my living life a fuc*ing nightmare.

I clench my fists. Feeling angry suddenly. To retreat my fingers.

When she takes a big gasp, and her eyes widely open

Her scared brown ones meet my emotionless grey ones.

And I see the the emotions change clearly in them.

Confusion, anxiousness, disbelief to finally settle in fear.

Raw and evident.

It felt like everything stood still for a second as we stared.

But this was not what she wanted.

Within seconds, she pushes me back. Seeing me so close to her. Breathing heavily like she ran a damn marathon.

And I clench my fist more. Seething.

" Good morning Peaches. I see you are finally awake from your beauty sleep.”

I say, sarcastically. While she looks around at my room in panic. Next I know, she throws aside the comforter and tries to get up.

Disregarding her wounded thigh.

What a stupid move.

I stare at her futile attempts. Not doing anything to help her.

Seeing her staggering. Holding the wall to run away from me. Limping on her good leg.

Her fearful eyes looking at me over her shoulder in fear, while I just chuckle.

" Not a nice way to thank the one that saved your life Peaches.”

I say getting up and approaching her.Crossing my arms while leaning on the wall beside her.

To see her trying to walk past me.

Her scent hitting me as the wind blows from the window. Making me wish to take her on this wall only.

To fuc* her out of her senses

I expected her to plead me. Asking me to accept her. To forgive her. But she refused to even meet my eyes.

Like she was disgusted.

Showing me her hand, she asks me to stay back and I feel my anger flare.

Such audacity.

Coiling my hand behind her neck, I pull her to pin her on the wall. Making our noses to touch and her heavy breaths to hit my face.

" What the hell bitc*! Do you know know I can kill you any second!"

I speak, trying to control my sh*t while she just blankly states at me. Not affected.

I look down to see her chest heaving and the bandages around her thigh, red with blood.

But her face? It conceals everything.

How?

Wasn't she hurting.

How can she fuc*ing act so calm!

She considers my words for a second, to only disregard them.Avoiding my eyes, she just presses her cheek on the wall.Staring at a spot outside

This girl!

"What were you doing roaming around near the borders of my territory?"

I ask.

Silence. Nothing.

"You know the order is to kill at sight. Don't you?"

I ask again. To see her still refusing to answer me, let alone look at me.

Just how? How can this girl manage to ruin my mood in just few minutes.

" Fuc* Eirene! I am asking you something!"

She just closed her eyes instead. Making it impossible for me to control it.

And I hold her jaw in my grip, tilting her face to make her look at me.

" Speak I"

I roar and I find her body shivering under my Alpha voice. But her eyes. They remain closed. Adamant. Determined. Revolting.

My eyes trailing lower to her lips and I find that urge to kiss her building.

My wolf going crazy in my mind.

As I only tighten my grip on her, dipping my face lower on her shoulder. To take in her scent. Asking her.

" When I was finally moving on from you. When I was ready to replace you. Why the fuc* did you have to come back?"

" And that also as my goddammit mate!"

* Tell me!”

Punching the wall beside her head I scream in frustration. My eyes red and stormy. When she finally opens her eyes.

And my heart thuds seeing that innocence still present in them.

Those brown orbs, playing with my conscience.

I take another deep breath. Inhaling her peach scent and my wolf goes crazy. Making a headache to begin.

My eyes trailing lower to those lustrous lips once again as I caress the corner of her mouth.

" What do you want now Eirene? Why are you here?"

"Speak dammit!"

I shout.Knowing my grip was painful. To only see her lips quiver. Her mouth opens and closes. But no word leaves her lips.

And my wolf thrashes in my mind. Forcing me to get him the answers.

"Tell me!"

She lowers her eyes, to only close them. And my mind went blank when I see a rogue tear stream down her eye.

My heart thumping in my chest as my grip loosens on her.

What the hell am I doing!

Why are her tears affecting me?

This bitc* is playing with me again.

" Power, status or sex?"

" Come on tell me. What's it?"

Her eyes widen listening to my words. As he successfully covers it up. Managing to push me aside. She takes staggering steps back.To only grab a pen and paper from the side table. And scribble down the words with her shaking hands.

" Freedom"

She wrote. But I was least concerned about her answer. My eyes fixed on her mouth which opens and closes but no voice leaves her.

" Why are you writing it down. Can't you speak?"

I ask. Throwing aside the paper as she lowers her eyes. Clenching her fists.

To nod slightly.

And my mind went blank.

She can't speak.

She is mute?
