Mine - The Alpha's Possession

CHAPTER 47

It only took an hour to get back to the pack, I was unbelievably surprised at how close they were to the pack. And I was a little disappointed that Layla and Stefan, and even Damon didn’t want to come back with us. They were going to stay there with Vincent and Eric. That wasn’t going to be a pleasant place to live but, they made their choice, and I couldn’t force them to abandon the only home they’ve ever known.

The whole car trip back was pretty silent. I wasn’t really in the mood to talk, instead I was just looking out the window at the woods around me and at how familiar they were and how I couldn’t wait to get back home. I had been locked in a dungeon for two months and I was wearing a raggy dirty old dress with a damn corset that I couldn’t wait to get off of me. It was so hard to breathe in this thing.

When we finally pulled up outside the packhouse I sat in the car for a moment looking up at the house and it definitely wasn’t a castle, but it was home. And it felt a lot more comfortable than that castle ever did. I knew that this is where I belonged.

“Are you alright?” Jackson asked.

“Yeah. It’s just good to be home.” I say. And he smiled at me.

So, we both got out of the car and went inside and there was no one to be seen. It was dark by now and everyone was gone for the day, there was nothing else to do. The warriors would go straight to their homes and their families, and I was happy with the peace and quiet. I didn’t want the stares or the whispers behind my back. I definitely wasn’t in the mood to talk to anyone.

I started walking up the stairs and I went to my bedroom and I grabbed some clothes out of the wardrobe and I took them into the bathroom.

I had a shower and scrubbed my whole body at least three times. And I did the same with my hair. And when I got out I dried myself off and I got dressed. It was colder here now. I could see that it had been snowing and I grabbed my warmest pyjama’s that I could. It was lucky that I had a fireplace in my bedroom.

I opened the door and I was hit the head. immediately, noticing that the fireplace was already lit, I looked around the dark room and Jackson was sitting on the edge of my bed waiting for me. 1

“I wasn’t expecting this talk until tomorrow. “I sighed out walking into the room while still drying my hair with a towel. But I grabbed the chair and put it in front of the fireplace. I sat on it backwards so that it could dry my hair for me and I was facing him on the bed.

“I just need to know. What made you decided to leave with Layla.” He says looking me dead in the eye.

“I asked you if you were going to accept me as your mate. You couldn’t give me an answer. So, that was all I needed. That was the push that I needed.” I say.

“So, it was me that made you leave.” He says.

“It was my choice to leave. And for the first few days I was fine. But the longer I was gone, the more I missed you. I don’t know if it was the bond or if it is because of what we had before I turned 18 and the bond snapped into place. I don’t know. But I knew that I wanted to see you again. It wasn’t long after that, that I was locked in a damn dungeon.” I say.

And he looked up at me while I was sitting there.
