Caged Between the beta & alpha

What Robyn said was so damn true and I knew I needed to do this, I needed to talk to Damgo.

I couldn’t keep hurting him like this.

I won’t wait any longer, I’m going to go and I’m going to talk to him right now.

I can’t carry on doing this…
I was now back in my room, pacing restlessly.

I decided to mind link Damon and ask if I could come to see him.

I took a deep breath, my fists clenched.

My heart was racing against my ribcage, painfully fast.
‘Damon?’
‘Hey, everything ok?’
‘Can’t I link you if there’s not a reason?’ I asked, feeling guilty, thinking I didn’t mind link him as often.

No wonder he thought that.
‘Course you can.’ But we both knew the truth.
‘Well, I wanted to meet up with you, like to actually talk.

Can I come around?’ I had to try my best to sound normal.
‘Sure, me and Zack are actually dealing with a potential clue, but as soon as it’s done, I can let you know?’
‘Perfect thanks…’ I said, the guilt of what I was about to do eating up at me inside.
‘Take care, gorgeous.’ His soft, deep voice came.

I closed my eyes.
Not gorgeous, fucking evil and cruel.

I sank onto my bed, wrapping my arms around my legs and resting my chin on top of my knees.

Sadness washed over me and the urge to wallow in self -pity threatened to overcome me, but before I could, Liam’s voice came through the link.
‘Bitesize?’
‘Hey.’ I said softly
Are you ok?’ Concern was clear in his voice.
‘Of course I am.
‘You don’t sound it…
Ever the intuitive one.
‘I am, so why did you mind link?” I asked brightly.
‘Two hours from now, I want you to meet me at the edge of the woods, by the park.’
“Ok… ‘I said, wondering why.

I needed to talk to Darnon too.

‘Is it important? I had something I needed to do today.’
‘Yes, it is.

Can you reschedule?’
I couldn’t deny him.
Ok, see you then.’ I said, giving in.
I guess I could talk to Damon after meeting Liam if he’s not done before then.

If he was done b y then, that is
I decided to clean up my room a little, thinking about Mom… She was gone, would she be reunited with Renji? How was Dad coping? His trial was in the morning too.

I was not looking forward to it at all, but I knew I had to do it.

I pulled out a matte PU leather shirt, which was nice and

Sparks rippled through me and I bit back my moan, only for Liam to deepen the kiss as a helpless sigh left my lips. “Thanks.” I
