Joaquin

After I slipped out of my Little Bunny’s room that night, I immediately went to see Noah. I wanted to know what our friends in the basement had to say for themselves.

“Did you behave yourself?” He had asked me.

“Did you really think I wouldn’t?” I countered. “Of course, I did. I held her to keep her warm. She had a nightmare once but settled down. Her temp is normal now. You can check on her soon.”

“Good.” He continued to glare at me. “Did you keep your hands to yourself?”

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“You know what it means. You rejected her. I don’t want you pawing all over her.”

“She is still my mate Noah. I have every right.”

“You have no right until she gives it to you.”

“I know that.” I sighed, conceding to his words. “She has told me the same thing by the way. She threatened to remove something if I didn’t have her permission.” Noah laughed at that and I couldn’t help but laugh with him.

“Good, she’s a strong girl, and stubborn.”

“I’m learning that.”

I learned from Noah that none of our prisoners were talking. No matter what Noah did or said. Looks like they needed a little push from the alpha to persuade them. I stalked to the basement and went into the room with the man that had pushed my Little Bunny over the edge of the cliff.

“Do you want to explain yourself now, or do I need to get creative?” I asked him. The man had the audacity to glare at me.

“You won’t frighten me. You will never learn anything from me about our mission.”

“Creative it is.” I grinned at him. “I’m going to show you what happens to anyone who hurts my mate.”

His screams echoed throughout the room for the next hour. I made sure not to kill him, otherwise I could do whatever I wanted. He would heal, eventually.

I had just snapped his thigh bone, an excruciatingly painful injury that would only take him an hour or so to heal. His agonizing cries of pains reverberating around me were like music to my ears.

“Who are you working for?” I growled at him again. “Why are all of you working together?”

“Go to hell, you pathetic low life.” The rogue was crying in front of me.

“You’re not going anywhere until you tell me.” I told him.

“I’m not saying a word.”

This process went on for hours with him and the other prisoners. We never learned anything. We continued interrogating them over the next few days and still, nothing. I was getting frustrated.

And to add to the frustration. It had been three days and my Little Bunny was still not awake. My anxiety was growing with each passing hour that she didn’t wake up. Griffin had only said she would sleep until the morning, maybe a little longer. He didn’t say anything about three days.

Even Griffin was worried about her. He gave a deadline. If she doesn’t wake by that time, he will send an ambulance to bring her to the hospital. We were all worried, even my mother. The pack was about to lose another Luna. How could I let this happen?

I’d been in a bit of a stupor this whole time as well and I knew it. I couldn’t help it. I was just too worried. That’s why I was currently pacing my office and staring out my window instead of working when Noah walked in without knocking.

“Noah?” My heart sank. He had been sitting with my Little Bunny almost this whole time. “Is something wrong?”

“You would know if you went to see her yourself.” He didn’t look happy at all. Something bad must have happened.

“Is she alright? Did something happen?” My heart ached, and I felt like a bucket of ice water had just been dumped down my spine. Noah sighed causing my stomach to drop. I sank into the chair at my desk.

“She’s fine.” He finally told me. “She’s awake.” It felt like a balloon had just inflated inside my chest.

“Oh thank Goddess.” I sighed so quietly he couldn’t hear me.

“I told her the two of you need to talk.” He glared at me. “About everything.”

“She won’t want to talk to me.”

“I told her that you’re the one who saved her. She didn’t believe me. She didn’t think there was any way you would save her. You need to stop pushing her away.” He lectured me.

“I know. The attacks are not stopping even without me near her. And I don’t know what’s going to happen next.”

Noah continued to lecture me on what I should do when it comes to my Little Bunny. But I didn’t know if she would ever let me near her again. And I was nervous. I had kept her at bay to protect her, and myself. I didn’t want to let her in.

I had built walls, thick high walls, around my heart to protect myself from ever getting hurt and having the same problems that had nearly destroyed my pack and Riley’s pack. I didn’t want to let her destroy those walls I had built. She was so unlike the other women I had met, that I had been with, that I knew she could do it. She would worm her way in and tear them down until I was soft and exposed, vulnerable to her every touch, to her every word, to her.

I was still avoiding her room. I had yet to go check on her, though I thought about it all the time. I wanted to see her. To see for myself that she was awake and safe. To even have her yell at me again. Hell, I’d even take her calling me Fido or Benji again, just to know that she was back to her old self. But I couldn’t bring myself to take that last step. Not yet.

That’s when mom came to see me. I was holed up in the music room tuning the piano. I had neglected the thing for so long that it was nearly impossible to play right now. She knew I wouldn’t leave it until I was done, unless she made me so mad that I couldn’t control it. I sat there and listened to her lecturing me.

“What in the world have you been doing?” She yelled at me as soon as she came into the room.

“I’m tuning this damn thing.” I told her as I worked my way up the row of keys, I had just finished with middle ‘C’, halfway done.

“I meant with your mate. The story that she just told me. Honestly Joaquin.” She snapped at me. I groaned knowing all too well what she must have heard.

“I have no excuse good enough, but I have my reasons for why I thought it was best.” I told her.

“I don’t care what you thought. There is nothing on this planet that should make a man, an Alpha, say those words to his mate. Do you understand me? What you did was wrong on so many levels.”

“You don’t understand Mom, I-.”
