Alexia Eden (FairyTales Don't Exist) (13 page)

“That’s… actually a good idea sweetie, we just need to keep an eye on you in case someone does figure it out, but if we keep it within the pack – no one else should find out about it.” Alex states.

“I’ll talk to the pack and explain to them that this is to be kept secret, you boys take her to bed, she looks exhausted.” says Johnny as he hugs me goodnight.

“Goodnight Alex,” I say and give her a hug, “Goodnight hun.” She kisses my cheek.

Talon picks me up again and throws me over his broad shoulder. “Really Talon? Really? I can walk you know!” I hear Johnny and Alex laughing behind me.

“We know that, but this is way more fun!” Tyler says and smacks my ass.
Arg!

Talon throws me on his giant bed and Tyler throws me a shirt and a pair of boxers. “Get dressed we’ll be back in a few minutes, make it quick!” Tyler says as they leave the room. I get dressed and climb on the bed, getting under the covers,
damn I’m so tired!

The door opens and the boys come in, Talon climbs in bed next to me under the covers. “Whose Jax and Ronny? And Drake?” He growls in my ear, I turn to look at him seeing my phone in his hand.

“Oh shit! Did you read all the messages?” I snatch my phone away from him. “Jax and Ronny are my best friends and Drake’s my boyfriend.” Talon growls under his breath at the mention of a boyfriend.

“We noticed all the missed calls and messages but we didn’t read them.”
 Tyler replies for Talon as he climbs on the other side of me and pushes me to the middle of the bed.

“You serious with this Blake guy?” Talon presumptuously says knowingly saying Drakes name incorrectly. I just roll my eyes changing the subject.

“What are you guys doing?” I ask them looking from where they’re sleeping to where I'm lying between their big bodies.

“We are sleeping next to you so no monsters can steal you away at night, you never know what’s lurking in these woods at night.” Talon says in a creepy voice near my ear then leans his head on his hands behind his head lying on his back then winks at me.

Oh god if werewolves are real, what else is out there
…? This scares me so I get comfortable under the blanket and enjoy the warmth coming from their bodies. I take a look at my phone that is still on silent. 72 Missed calls and my mailbox is full with 27 new messages.

I read the latest message:

DRAKE at 11:40pm:
Lexi! Answer your fucking phone! I'm so angry right now!!!

That is probably the side of Drake Ronny was talking about but I just ignore the message and look at the next.

JAX at 11:46pm:
Alexia where are you??? Your mom says you’re staying over at a friend? It’s not safe out there, I’m so mad at you right now, I need you to get back home NOW, I need to know you’re safe! Fuck sakes!!!

LEXI at 12:13am
: I’ll be home tomorrow and I’m Safe. Goodnight Jax.

JAX at 12:14am:
THANK GOD, you don’t know how worried we are about you! Love you Lex & btw this doesn’t mean I’m not mad at you. I’m VERY angry but goodnight and drive safe tomorrow.

LEXI at 12:16 am:
Love you too Jax.

RONNY at 12:16am:
Love you Lexi.

LEXI at 12:17am:
Love you too Ron xxx

I slip my phone under my pillow and fall asleep surrounded by warmth.

I wake up to someone’s hand around my waist and a hand over my breast, my back is against a hard warm chest while my legs are dangled with someone’s heavy ones in front of mine. I can feel someone’s breath on the back of my neck too. My face is resting on something smooth yet hard and warm, I can feel something warm near my face and my arm is over someone’s ripped stomach while their much larger hand is holding my arm in place. The person behind me squeezes me into them as if protectively and I can feel something by my bottom and its hard …
oh god!

“Talon! What the hell?” I open my eyes quickly and try move away from Talon that’s behind me but that only makes me move closer into Tyler’s side, causing Tyler to chuckle and pull me closer into him.

“Angel don’t act like you’ve never felt that before. Obviously Im’ma get excited with that sweet ass next to me…” Talon snickers trying to pull me closer to him as I move closer to Tyler.

“What’s wrong with you? No I’ve never felt that before THERE and I don’t see Tyler here sporting one and I’m next to him too!” I yell at Talon who’s only smirking at this point.

“Are you sure about that babe?” Tyler says from next to me as he flips me on my side pulling my leg over his thigh and pushing his evident boner into me.

“Oh my god.” I don’t mean for it to come out as a moan.

What is wrong with me?
I never used to have such an attraction to guys like this before, of course I was interested in them but when they would try to get intimate I would just push them away, now that all these gorgeous guys are into me I can’t control myself.
Such a hoe…

“You’re still a virgin aren’t you?” Talon whispers in my ears and I shiver as I feel his lips on my neck and his hand is on my waist going under my shirt. I can’t help but feel tingles in places there shouldn't be. Tyler still has me pulled up close into him with his arousal still hard pushing against me, his one hand is on my hip moving toward my ass.

No way, this isn’t happening….

I freeze for a moment as their hands explore my body, I wiggle under their hold and try to get up but as I lift my body Talon grabs my waist and throws me down on the bed and puts his large hard body on top of mine, pushing against me and holding me tight in his grasp.

Baby, we know you want this, we want this and our wolves want it too.” I look up at Talons eyes above me and his eyes are darker than before, filled with longing. I look at Tyler whose face is right next to mine. Tyler nuzzles my neck and takes a deep breathe of my scent as he closes his eyes, when his eyes open they are darker than Talons. At this point I’m petrified.

I should have listened to Jax
,
they're going to hurt me
…

“Please stop, I don’t want this. Please I have a boyfriend... please.” I feel the tear that I’ve been holding in escape. I look at both of their desire filled faces as they change into one of shock and guilt while their eyes slowly go back to their normal beautiful colour.

“Oh my god baby! I’m sorry.” Talon says as he pulls me into a hug so that I’m sitting on his lap.

“We weren’t going to hurt you, we promise, we would never hurt you Lex.” Tyler says from behind me as he kisses my cheek and rubs my back.

“Our wolves took over, there’s something about you, it drives our wolves crazy with want. We haven’t had a strong female around here for so long. I guess it our wolves lost control.” Talon says as he hands me to Tyler so he can hold me, they pass me around as if I weigh nothing.

Tyler whispers in my ear, “Damn… I’m so sorry …you were so scared …I’m so sorry…Please forgive us love.” I hear Tyler stutter in my ear as he holds me tight and his head is in the crack of my neck.

I look over to Talon who is behind Tyler on the edge of the bed with watery eyes yet no tears fall, that’s when I feel Tyler shudder underneath me...they’re both crying. I hold Talons hand and I pull Tyler's face up and look into his face wiping the tears away with my other free hand. There sadness makes me sad and all I want to do right now is comfort them even though I should be screaming and yelling at them to stay away. I don’t know why but I don’t want to hurt these boys. Their pain is my pain and that feeling is confusing the living shit outta me.

“Please don’t cry…it’s okay, its fine, it was just a mistake right….I’m fine. I forgive you. Just don’t scare me like that again, you guys are supposed to protect me...” I look at both of them then give each of them a hug. Smiles are back on their gorgeous faces.

“So you still want us to be your protectors? Even after what we did? I don’t think Alpha John will let us look after you…” Tyler says as he looks down ashamed.

“Well…I’m not going to tell him about this and I hope you guys won’t either. I want you guys as my protector’s okay… even after this... I still trust you guys. Please let’s keep this between us, I don't want to create drama when I just arrived.” I beg them.

“Thank you so much Lexi.” they both sound relieved. “Let’s get you fed.”

After getting dressing I follow them downstairs.

They make me breakfast and stack my plate fill of pancakes with cinnamon and syrup. Tyler makes me hot chocolate since it’s a cold morning and I don’t drink coffee or tea. Johnny comes strolling down the stairs with a ruffled face and pillow lines still etched on his skin, obviously just woken up wearing his hoody and long track pants.

“Mornin Angel, you sleep well?” I see Tyler and Talon look at each other and tense next to me when Johnny asks me; he gives me half a hug over the counter and kisses my forehead just like my dad always used to.

The boys beside me relax after I say, “Yeah, thank you so much for letting me stay over, I was exhausted.” I look at the clock in the kitchen and quickly drop my plate in the dishwasher. “Jeesh, it’s already 9 o’clock. I guess I better get going soon, I’m supposed to spend time with my friends today.”

“I wish you didn’t have to leave.” Alex says as she comes down from the stairs and gives me hug.

“I know, I’ve had such a great time but I need to get back. I will come and visit you guys as often as I can though, I promise.” I reply with a smile.

“Yeah you better, we’re going to miss you babe! We’ve put our numbers in your phone so if you need anything just let us know.” the twins give me a hug as Talon tells me this.

“My numbers there too, if you need ANYTHING Angel, you phone me and I’ll be there!” Johnny whispers in my ear as he gives me his usual bear hug.

Why do
 they keep calling me Angel? The way they say it, not like a sign of endearment but like it’s my name?

We say our goodbyes and Alex hugs me and
 cries again when I let go, as if she might lose me again.

I get in the car as I see Johnny holding Alex in his arms as she weeps into his chest.
Why is she so sad that I’m leaving?

As I drive away looking in my rear view mirror, I feel like I’m leaving a piece of my heart behind. I’m so happy I finally found them and that they’ve so easily
 welcomed me to their family. I’m overwhelmed by all the things I found out in the time I was with them, I nearly forget that I still have to deal with Jax and most probably Drake when I get home. I’m so tired though, I think I’ll go have a nap before I text them that I’m back. I’m going to need all the energy I can get to face them and keep this secret from them.

As I get outta my car and start walking toward our house, the clouds open up and start pouring rain. By the time I reach the door I’m soaking wet. I open the door to a dark house, all the curtains closed and I know that moms not here since her handbag that usually sits on the table near the door is missing.

I walk into my room and look through my windows it’s all gloomy and dark outside with the rain and lightning whipping down. I pull off my shirt and shorts so that I’m in my lacey purple underwear and black bra. I walk to the bathroom to get a towel to dry my hair and on my walk back to my room I hit a hard bare chest that wasn’t there a minute ago.

“Drake! What the hell! You nearly gave me a heart attack! What is wrong with you! How did you get in here? Haven’t you heard of knocking?” I yell at him and pull the towel that I was drying my hair with over my body and stomp to my room to get clothes but I don’t get a chance to reach my drawers because Drake grabs my shoulders and pushes me into my door closing it behind me.

“Don’t fucking shout at me Lexi, where were you? Why did you disobey me?” he bangs me into the door. I shudder at the pain that goes through my spine at the impact and the anger that is radiating off of Drake. I finally understand what Ronny said about his "other side".

This pisses me off and little as I am, I try my hardest to push his chest using all my strength but all the self-defense classes dad taught me isn’t helping me at this moment because he doesn’t even budge, my towel drops and I don’t even care.

“Don’t disobey you? Who do you think you are? I can do whatever the fuck I want and NO ONE, specifically NOT YOU is going to stop me! What is wrong with you? Why are you so mad? I just visited an old friend, what is your problem? I came back didn’t I?” I yell at him trying to control the tears from trickling over.

“Don’t do that Lexi, you’re making it sound like it isn’t a big deal when it is! All I wanted to know was where you were going and who you were seeing? Why did you make such a big deal about it?” He asks as his voice wavers. I can see he is trying to calm himself down. His hands are on the door on either side of my head blocking me in and his face is right in front of mine, then he lifts his head as if he’s smelling the air.

Could he smell the twins on me?
  He looks back at me and I can see through the light coming from my window from the lightning that his once beautiful hazel eyes are now black, he stares down at me, intimidating me, making me tremble with fear. 

“Who the FUCK did you see?” he roars as he puts his hands on the side of my arms and pushes me into the door hard, my feet are dangling a few inches above the ground. With the force from the door on my back and head I’m winded and can’t seem to grasp enough air into my lungs. If it wasn’t for his hands that are still on my arms I probably would fall to the floor. His hands are so tight around my arms
that I know for certain that I’m going to be left with bruises. I’m so shocked by his behavior and mood swing that I’m at a loss for words. I want to yell at him but the words won’t come out as I stare into his black eyes.

“Why can’t you just tell me? What’s the big secret? It’s not safe out there! Don’t you understand that you are MINE? No one else fucking touches you but ME!” he growls at me as he pushes his body into mine so I can’t move making me shove against the door again hurting my shoulder blades. His nose is now so close to mine, his face shows so much anger and I can feel his breath on my lips. I’ve never been more terrified in my existence; I don’t understand why he is treating me like this.
