Chapter 20

Avalynn POV

I felt the warm breeze kiss my cheeks and my eyes fluttered open. The smell of salt hung through the

air and filled my lungs as I breathed. I listened before I dared to move, almost afraid, I heard the sound

of water crashing softly in the background. I didn’t hear anything so I began to glance around the

room.

The windows were open as the curtains swayed with each gust of wind that passed through. The floor

was tiled and a soft grey color. The bed I was laying across was a large white four poster bed and

everything else matched its style. There looked to be a overly large chair with a soft fuzzy light blue,

grey, and white blanket draped over it.

The walls were a pale blue with white trim and decorated in a beachy or costal theme. It was honestly

how I would picture my own beach house destination designing if I ever had one. Whoever designed

this room, did a great job, that much I could remember. I almost felt bad for having someone’s blood

spilled here….Almost

As I sat up in the bed I inhaled deeply, all I could smell was the ocean and a vanilla scent that I

assumed was coming from the candle that was lit on the small table next to the chair. I couldn’t smell

the scent of any other being. I listened carefully past the waves that were hitting the sanded beaches. I

heard

footsteps, and a woman speaking to someone in hushed tones. I tried but I couldn’t make out what she

was saying

I noticed that my limbs were weak as I swung my legs over the bed. My arms felt heavy and my head

was throbbing. I stood and as soon as I did the door swung open. In walking a man with handsome

features. He was tall and broad and wore a smile on his face. He was carrying a tray of food and I took

a deep breath, able to smell the food under the cover. I smelled chicken and broccoli for certain and my

stomach growled.

“You’ve been asleep for awhile, I figured it was about time for you to wake.I wanted to give you

something to help rejuvenate your muscles. I had country fried steak, broccoli, mashed potatoes with

gravy, green beans, mac-n-cheese, and rolls made for you. I wasn’t sure what you liked so I had a bit

of everything made for you.” He smiled at me.

“Who are you?” I asked cautiously as he motioned for me to move to the small table across the

room.

“My name is Dexter, Prince of the Southern Territory. Soon to be King. And you are my mate, Avalynn.”

He smiled at me again.

I frowned “No, I already have a mate? Prince Everest of the Northern Territory.” My stomach growled

again and I only took a small sip of the herbal tea. When I looked back at him I felt a weird pull to him. I

knew that it was wrong and I pushed the feelings aside. I took a bite of my food and it was absolutely

delicious. “Mmm.” was all I could manage.

“I am glad you like it.” His smile widened as he stood and walked away to the door. “I’ll leave you to eat

in peace. I would like to go for a walk with you though once you have finished.” He left the door and I

heard his footsteps disappear as he walked away.

I sat and ate my dinner and wondered if I truly had two mates. I felt the pull but it wasn’t as strong as

the mate bond with Everest.

“Charlotte?” I called in my mind but there was nothing but silence and a cold empty feeling. I couldn’t

feel her at all and that made me slightly uncomfortable to leave the room and go walk with him. Well,

just to be around him in general actually. I had no way to fully protect myself against him and his Lycan.

It made me nervous to think about what could happen. It sent a wave of shivers down my spine.

late a little bit of everything and I was feeling slightly better. The food giving me energy and made my

limbs not seem as heavy as they were just a few moments ago. I stood and walked over to the large

opened window and looked out at the view for the first time. It was beautiful, the sun was beginning to

set and I realized that I indeed was out for some time. I could tell by the warmth and humidity that hung

thick in the air we were definitely somewhere south.

There was a knock on the door and I turned my attention in that direction. When I didn’t answer the

knock came again. “Come in?”I called out, slightly confused.

In walked Dexter with a warm smile on his face. I felt a pull to him that I didn’t like and fought against it.

This man kidnapped me, drugged me and my Lycan when we fought to get free, and took me away

from the mate I want to be with.

I could hear Charlotte in the back of my mind before she left to stay strong and to fight. I would do this,

I would never let myself be too comfortable as long as I am here.

“Enjoy dinner?” He asked me, bringing me back.

I nodded my head, “It was okay. I feel much better.”

“Lets walk, you won’t need shoes as they make it harder to walk in the sand. Let’s go.” He motioned for

me to walk and when I didn’t budge to go with him he sighed softly.

“I understand that you do not trust me, why should you? I did take you away from the only love

someone has showed you other than family. You see me as the bad guy. But I will never do anything to

hurt you again, baby girl. I will earn your trust and eventually your love. You will soon see. I want to

show you around your new home.”

I stayed where I sat and sighed. “I am still feeling weak. I am not sure if a long walk would do me any

good.”

He nodded “Well a tour of the home? I have elevators installed here it will make it easier.” He smiled

and extended his hand out to me, offering help.

I did say I felt weak sol took his hand. His hand was warm and sent pleasant fluttering feelings through

me. I frowned at the feeling as he shrugged it off as difficulty and weakness when really I was

repulsed at the feeling he gave me.

As he gave me the tour of the beach mansion my mind drifted to Everest. I missed him, his touch, his

love, and his smile. This home was impressive but it wasn’t a home for me. It isn’t what my heart

yearned for. I wanted my home with my people, not this Princes fake love and obsession.

“What do you think, baby girl? Is this place to your liking?” He smiled at me and I wished he would

throw that creepy pet name into the ocean and the sea would carry it away.

“It is a beautiful home. Thank you for showing it to me but I am a bit tired and would like to go back to

my room.” I forced a smile.

He walked me back to my room and as my hand was on the door he turned me around to look up at

him. His face dipped down dangerously close to mine and I froze in my spot. His nose softly nuzzled

against mine and his lips brushed against my own mouth. He pulled away as he moved to my ear, his

breath hot against my skin “Get some rest, I will see you for breakfast.” He turned and walked away as

I fumbled with turning the door to open it before going into my room and locking the door.

How silly I am sure he has a key to the room, I thought to myself as I slid off my shoes and curled up

on the oversized chair. I looked around the empty room, feeling isolated and alone. I felt tears stream

down my cheeks and I pulled the fuzzy blanket around me. I would allow myself a moment of sadness

for now. I would not shed another tear after tonight.

I slowly drifted into a light sleep. I woke up when my foot slipped from the chair and jolted me awake. It

felt as if I had that weird dream where you’re falling off a cliff or somewhere high up. My stomach

growled and I looked at the clock on the wall. It was one in the morning. I stood up and unlocked the

door. When I walked out I was face to face with a large man who was sitting in a chair outside my door.

“Where are you going at the hour?” He questioned, his voice was deep and angry sounding.

“None of your business.” I went to step past him and he gripped my arm, causing me to cry out with the

pain that shot through it. I may be a Lycan but that still hurt.

“I am going to the kitchen! Let me go!” I pulled my free hand back and punched the jerk right in the

face.

He let out a loud growl and the door next to my room swung open and off the hinges and a large figure

stepped out already in his Lycan form. He let out a loud deathly growl and my arm was instantly let go.

The Lycan came between me and this guy and he snapped at the hand that was holding me.

When his teeth clamped down on the man’s wrist I turned and went back into my room, slamming the

door shut. Flashbacks of my mothers death plagued my mind. I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep

breath when I heard shouting outside my door.

The shouting was over me and the voice shouting was Dexter, he was angry at the man for laying his

hand on me. I looked down at my arm, which was already badly bruised. I listened to them argue back

and forth and finally it was silence. I could hear someone trying to control their breathing before a

knock came on the door.

I looked at the door for a moment before I opened it. Dexter was looking back at me before his eyes

went to my bruised arm.

“Lam so very sorry for that. You will never have to see Stephen again. He has been dismissed for his

behavior with you. That was unacceptable and he is lucky to be living. I am so sorry.” He looked down

at

the ground.

“It isn’t your fault.” I offered.

“It is because I put him up as a body guard for you and he did the opposite.” He countered.

“Want to join me for a snack? That is where I wanted to go when this all happened.” I offered because I

was still hungry and I was afraid he would want to come into my room.

He nodded and stepped back away from the door to allow me to come out of the room. I shut the door

behind me and we began our stroll to the kitchen.

When we reached downstairs and stepped off the elevator the man that gripped my arm had a duffle

bag over his shoulder as he was exiting the kitchen. “You will pay for this Dexter. Burning one too many

bridges for this whore.” He looked at me and and my eyes widened. But I felt something small, hope

maybe? Would he be the reason Everest finds me? I looked at Dexter and put a hand on his arm and

he looked down to me. “Let him go with his empty threats.” I looked back at the man named Stephen

and gave him a pleading look to run. As if to catch on he left without another word.

We walked into the kitchen together and sat down for a small snack. Once done he walked me to my

room, kissed me upon my cheek and I went to bed, falling asleep rather quickly. My dreams were filled

with a mixture of horrors and fighting amongst many warriors. Everest met me in my dream and when

he held me in his arms nothing mattered. Not the horrors, not the fighting, only we mattered, only his

love blocked out the bad of everything else. When I woke I looked up at the ceiling and clung to the

hope of seeing my mate soon.
