A Possessive Mate novel Chapter 8

After brushing my teeth for a good 3 minutes, I fixed up my hair and put on clean clothes. It's amazing how much cleaning myself can make me so much more positive.

I pushed aside the heavy curtains and closed my eyes to feel the sun on my face. I had stayed cooped up inside for so long that I was about to shift just because my wolf hadn't come out for so long.

Suddenly, I opened my eyes and jumped back a little when I saw a man at the window. He was tapping the window and trying to look me in the eye.

It was Dylan! He looked beat up, but he was still hanging on the wall trying to get me to come out.

"Hi baby," I saw him mouth. I waved at him and pushed the window open. The wind blew in my face, and I could feel the cold chill against my skin.

"Dylan! You have no idea how happy I am to see you," I grabbed his arm and helped him inside the room.

"Baby," he hugged me and made eye contact with me. "We have to leave. In about 5 minutes, that guy will come and take me away from you."

"But," I contemplated the thought of whether or not to go. I felt a natural pull to Nate, but considering the fact that I had caught him making out with another girl, I really didn't want to talk to him. "Okay, just give me a second to pack."

"Okay I'll help," Dylan looked around the room and found a duffel bag for me to stuff my clothes in. Ignoring my OCD tendencies, I shoved any clothes I could fit in there and put some toothbrushes and other things we would need. When the bag was completely full, Dylan slung it over his shoulder and helped me out of the window.

"How are we supposed to leave?" my skin got goose bumps looking down at the ground. We were on the top floor and if we fell, we would've died.

"Close your eyes and hold my chest," I did what he told me and I felt him shift as he jumped down. Wolves, like cats, would always land on their feet if they were strong enough. When I finally felt him drop on the ground, I opened my eyes and looked up at him with shock on my face. Dylan quickly shifted back and pulled a pair of pants on.

"You sure you're fine?" I patted down his body and searched for any injuries. He clutched my hands together in front of his bare chest and kissed my forehead.

Sera's POV

I mentally punched myself as I sat in a prison cell. I should've known that we would get caught. This was the most powerful pack in the world, obviously they would find a werewolf who couldn't shift in public and another wolf who had a black eye and some broken bones.

"I'm so stupid," I ran a hand through my hair and leaned back against the wall. The cold stones were uncomfortable against my back and the dripping ceiling was slowly creating a puddle on the floor.

The guards outside of my cell looked at me with humor in their eyes. I guess they thought it was funny to see their luna in the prison, looking like she had just been through a tornado.

"I'm so dumb, dumb, dumb," I sang and waved my feet and hands around like a little kid. I think I was going insane from being in such a small room for such a long time.

"Luna," I heard a guard from the outside say. "The alpha wants to see you and the other wolf. He said to not try to run because he will find you and uhm..." He ran a hand through his hair. "Punish you." His face showed his awkwardness at saying something that suggested something sexual.
