Mates with Alpha Maddox novel Chapter 39

I feel something bite into the side of my neck and my hand immediately presses into it. I touch the place that is is now burning and when I my hand back there is a drop of blood on it.

I turn around to see the guy waving a metal syringe around mockingly.

"Did you just stick that on my neck?" I yell, trying to sound intimidating but failing miserably.

He smirks "Not the only thing I will be sticking in you today"

I start panicking and taking steps back while he steps forward.

"Get away from me you dick" I yell.

He looks at me with wonder "How come you haven't collapse yet? Your parents fell as soon as I injected them"

"Guess your tricks don't work on everyone you dumbass" I hiss but even as I am saying this I feel my muscles relaxing slowly, meaning I would probably collapse soon.

He sniffs the air and his smile gets even bigger and creepier. "You haven't shifted yet, that's why. It takes longer for humans"

Knowing I don't have much time I try to persuade him "You should leave, they will come looking for us and they will kill you"

He laughs "Nobody is coming to save you little girl"

And then I collapse.

He grabs a hold of my head and turns me to him "Its all your fault, if you would have been able to shift you could have been strong enough to save them and maybe even kill me"

He then starts unbuttoning my jeans and my eyes fill with tears.

I beg him with my eyes not to do this but he just winks.

When my pants are off he sees the paper peeking out of the back pocket of the jeans and takes a lot at them.

He quickly scans it and then faces my parents. "Congratulations, your daughter was accepted to Walker's academy, too bad you both will be dead to see her go and she will probably die also, but still big accomplishment" he says as he starts talking the rest of my clothes off. I try to move or scream but my body doesn't listen.

"Watch as I take the innocence of your daughter just because you are too weak to stop me" The evil guy says to my parents then I feel a piercing pain on my lower half of my body. My eyes fill with tears as the pain increases.

"Please stop, no I don't like this" I beg, I just needed this to stop.

He just kept going.

After a few minutes of pleasuring himself the evil man takes a few minutes then starts again. And again, and again.

I felt numb, tears stopped flowing and I just stared at the evil guy as he stole my innocence and stomped on it.

And then from the corner of my eye I saw Maddox. I had never seen him like this. His eyes held this hate that chilled me to the bone, he quickly approached the evil guy who was too busy to hear Maddox coming and ripped him off of me and threw him against a tree. Shifting Maddox attacked him, blood seeped out of the evil guy but just as the guy passed out Maddox stopped, not making an effort to kill him and my eyes widened.

Why didn't he kill him?

I see Maddox look at me then at our parents and he goes to me first.

"Nikki talk to me" he says, his eyes pleading but I couldn't.y body wouldn't let me.

So I just helplessly stared at him.

"They're on there way Nikki, just hang on" Maddox says taking his shirt off and putting it on me then rocking me back and forth while saying soothing words.

I then see the main pack warriors and the pack doctor walk into the clearing. Everyone starts working.

"What do you want to do with him?" Logan, the head warrior asks, pointing to the evil man.

Maddox quickly whispers something and Logan nods ties the evil man's hands together and then roughly grabs him by the scruff of his shirt and drags him out of my sight.

The rest is all a haze and next thing I know I wake up in the pack's medical center.

*Flash back over*

Jayda's POV

"I was only 14 when that happened, the evil man. He took everything from me. Rouges will always do that to you. Take everything that matters to you and destroy it" Nikki says.

Tears are running down my face while Nikki tells me the story of everything that happened to her. What she had to go through, nobody deserves that.

That's why Maddox and Nikki hate Rouges so much.

The question that keeps nagging my brain is, Maddox didn't kill him, what happened to him?

So I decide to ask her.

"What happened to the rouge, you know. The evil man" I ask hesitantly

She looks at me and I quickly say "If you don't want to talk about it anymore then I totally get it"

Nikki shakes her head "I want to tell you, you deserve to know the whole story of why your mate isn't the happy, easy going guy he once was"

I nod "I woke up a week after from an induced coma..." She starts

*Flashback Nikki's POV*

I wake up with a small scream, the images of the evil man hadn't left my mind even in my unconscious state.

Maddox was quickly at my side "You're awake" he breathes a sigh of relief.

I just stare at him, my eyes filled with tears at the thought of what happened.

"Where's mom and dad?" I ask frantically.

Maddox looks away "They're gone"

I shake my head "What do mean they are gone? Where did they go? Why did you let them leave? I need them!" I yell, my body shaking with sobs.

Maddox quickly wraps his arms around me in a hug but its not one of his usual hugs, its cold and detached "They died, we tried to save them but you were all injected with silver and you know how bad silver is for wolves. You were lucky you are human or you would have died too"

"Get your hands off me!" I shout, Maddox quickly takes a step back and I rip all of the cables that were attached to me, including the IV who after I ripped it out made my hand start bleeding. Maddox eyes widen and he makes a move to stop me but I am already out the door.

"Mom? Dad? Where are you? mom, dad please!" I yell, I look at the waiting room to see my other brother Kyle.

"Kyle, where are our parents?" I ask, tears streaming down my face uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry Nikki, when I flew in they had already passed away" Kyle says as he too starts crying.

Kyle walks towards me and hugs me.

Maddox walks to the waiting room a few minutes later, his face blank.

"I'm going to go, I'll call Dr. Jenny on the way out " he says then he is gone.

I stared at the well where he just walked out of.

"He just left, why did he leave? Doesn't he know we need him?" I ask my twin brother.

He shrugs "He's been doing that since I got here, every time he gets stressed he leaves then comes back as if nothing happened"

"I need my older brother Kyle, I want him back"

Dr. Jenny walks into the room with a new IV in hand "Let's go Nicole, we need to get you back to bed, the more you rest the sooner you will leave"

I shake my head "I want to leave now"

"You can't, you need to get better" Dr. Jenny says motioning me to start walking.

"I told you I am not going" I snap but Kyle gently grabs my hand.

"Let's go sis, it'll be over soon" Kyle whispers leading me into my hospital bed.

After Dr. Jenny connects me to the IV again, she leaves the room.

"Go to sleep Nikki, I'll be here when you wake up" Kyle says and I quickly doze off.

•A few days later•

I wake up scream, my body dripping with sweat. Tonight, like every other night I wake up screaming from a nightmare about the evil man.

My bedroom door quickly opens and like every other night Kyle walks in to console me and then like every other night I hear the front door slam close. Its an endless cycle. It happens every night.

I have a nightmare, wake up screaming, Kyle comes in and Maddox slams the door shut and leaves the house.

He stays out for hours, I know he isn't sleeping. The bags under his eyes tell me that, but then again none of us are. We are all dealing with grief differently.

Kyle and I are sticking together while Maddox can rarely stand to be near us. He is cold towards everyone. Nobody dares to say a word to him knowing he'll snap.
