Life After the Storm

chapter 44

I'm not sure what he is about to tell me, I'm hoping that it is good and not bad. I really just wanted to enjoy my breakfast, but I have a feeling that he is about to ruin it. Just by looking at his face, I know that whatever he is about to say, it is not going to be good.

He then starts to talk as he is nervous. “You know how my pack is broken, and I would do anything to protect them.”

“Landon I know how important your pack is, we will figure something out together, I promise.”

“The thing is, Lilly , I already figured it out with Ivan, but there were terms that had to be followed.”

“Landon, what did you do?”

“I promised him you.”

“What you promised him me, I'm not an object you can just give to someone.”

“I'm sorry Lilly, I had no other choice. We need to come together as a pack. He made his terms very clear to me. I can't have any involvement with you from here on out.”

“No What about Jayden, I love you.”

“Lilly there are more things at stake here than my happiness, I had to give him what he wanted.”

“You said that you loved me, but you were so easy to give me away. I don't want a life with Ivan. I'm not going back, I'm sorry.”

“I'm sorry Lilly Ivan is here to take you back with us, he came and brought others just in case you would try to run.”

My eyes began to fill up with tears, wondering how I could have been so stupid to think I belonged with Landon and his pack. I should have known that Ivan wouldn't have let me go. I look at Landon with disappointment and tear filled eyes. “So last night was all a lie.”

“Lilly I'm sorry, please, you must understand this is the only way he is your mate, you belong to him.” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“I belong to no one, I should be able to choose what I want, it shouldn't be chosen for me.”

I can't hold my tears any longer, as they fall I feel a little hand begin to rub my back. “Lilly don't cry, please don't be sad, daddy why you make Lilly cry?”

As I hear the door open and footsteps come close, I look up and see Ivan. All I feel is hatred At this moment. Why did he have to ruin my life not once, but twice. “Lilly it is nice to see you again, it's time to go.”

“Ivan, I'm not going with you.”

“Lilly you don't have a choice, I have you, or I don't protect them or his pack don't irritate me just follow my orders.”

“Ivan, please don't do this, you said you would let me be free.”

As he stalks over me and roughly grabs my hand and pulls me up to my feet to go with him, “No Ivan let me go please Ivan.”

He doesn't listen, as I can feel his grasp tighten around my wrist. I can't get out of his grip, wishing I could overpower him. Knowing the only way I escaped him last time was him thinking I was dead. I watch as Jayden goes to get up from his seat and tries to run over to me, but Landon stops him, it's “ok buddy you will see her soon.”

I quit struggling and trying to resist hoping that he will allow me to talk with Jayden,”Ivan let me talk to Jayden, and I'll go with you please."

“You can talk to him when we get back to the pack, I'm not wasting any more time.”

“Ivan, please stop, please.” He ignores my pleas and forces me to go with him. I'm so full of rage that my chest burns. As we are walking, I see that we are ready to get into a vehicle. As he pushes me in I then scout over to the other door as I open the door I jump out and shift and take off through the woods.

I hear his furious howl as I am running with everything in me trying to escape him, knowing I'm not fast enough to out run him, just trying to find somewhere to hide. I hear Star “Lilly look for water, it will hide our scent.”

As I'm searching for water, I cannot find it and I can tell that he is getting closer and closer to me the next thing I know I am tumbled, and I am rolling he angrily tells me to shift back to my human form as I shift I hear star say “Lilly don't let him mark you if he marks you, we will lose our pup.”

I can see the red in his eyes how angry he is. It was like last time when he raped me. I know that this is not going to be good as he shows his canines I try to stop him “Ivan, please stop I am pregnant you will hurt our child.”

He smirks and laughs at me, “our child it's not our child you've been fucking Sam and plus Landon you're pregnant to somebody else and I will not bring my mate back that is pregnant to another wolf.”

“Ivan I swear if it's yours, please don't do this I will never forgive you, I will hate you forever.”

As I am trying to fight him off, but there's no use, his strength is overpowering me and his anger is more furious than any anger I have ever seen. That's when I feel him smelling my shoulder to find where he

wants his mark to be, he then does the unthinkable and digs his canines into my shoulder I scream out as my body begins to burn.

I can hear star whimper, “no Lilly this can not be happening, he just took everything away from us once again.”

As I am so overwhelmed by everything that has just happened, I want to just give up and die. Knowing that I will survive because I can't die,, but it feels like my heart was just ripped out of my chest. Ivan has taken everything that was ever important to me away, how could I ever love someone like him?
