The Tormented Soul

Chapter 12: moving day

Aleera's POV

It had been a few days since Darius was here and told me that I was his mate. I remember my wolf Pixie told me that the first time I saw him but I pushed it away. It's not like I don't want a mate, I do, but I am not ready at all. Right now I think he would be better off with another woman that can be with him and want to be with him right from the start.

A knock at the door brought me out of my thoughts and in walks Celia, Cassie and Darius.

I look up at them with a concerned expression. What’s going on? I looked at Celia first, then my eyes turned to Cassia and finally to Darius. I could tell that they saw the expression on my face. Celia sat down on the chair next to me and looked at me, she took a deep breath and then she started to tell me why they were there.

"Sweetie I want to tell you now that you're healthier and your strength is back on track, even if it's not one hundred percent back yet, I'm going to discharge you. So you are going to move to your own room."

"What, bu..t … bu..t where?" I replied with a slight stutter, I was starting to become frightened. Where am I moving?

Celia took a deep breath and turned her face to Darius to look at him and then looked back at me.

"You are going to move to the pack house and there you’ll have your own room on the 3rd floor. No one except for 6 people have clearance to go up there, but it’s only you and Darius that have a room on that floor.”

My breath got caught in my throat, It felt like I couldn't breathe. Why the hell am I going to live on the third floor with Darius and why am I going to move to the pack house? I don't want to live there not after what I have been through.

I was shaking my head so much that my long dark blonde hair danced with my movement. Celia took my hands and I looked at her still shaking my head but slower now.

"Hun, you can't stay here forever. You will still be safe even if you move to the pack house. The pack house is the safest place you can be at Alea." Celia tells me in a calm voice.

"No, ple..ase, I ca..n't." The words came out in a stutter again. Tears now running down from my cheeks. Celia moves her hands over my cheeks to wipe away the tears. When she was finished she put her arms around me, hugging me.

The room was left in total silence for a few minutes until Darius finally broke it.

"Alea, I know you are afraid and uncomfortable with moving to my pack house, but I assure you that you will be safe. Your room is next to mine and I have fixed up your room all by myself."

I looked over Celia's shoulder right Into Darius chocolate brown eyes and he looked right back into mine. During the time we stared at one another it felt like it was only the two of us in the room and no one else. We stared at one another for a few more minutes before I broke eye contact.
