Blind Beast Mate(25)

By:Milana Jacks


“Who caught you?”

“I’m a fast runner.”

He cleared his throat. “How did you know where to run?”

“I could see once, until I didn’t see anymore because I was an excellent runner.”

“Tell me everything.”

Sighing, I picked the ends of my hair. “One day during the hunt, I ran and hid inside the stables. My Uncle Sam found me and unzipped his pants. I kicked him in the balls. When I tried to run again, he picked up a pitchfork and swung. It caught the back of my head, and I collapsed. What he did after I passed out, I don’t know, but I woke up with permanent vision damage. That’s it.” Jamie didn’t comment, so I continued. “After, I lay in bed for months. The pills helped. Cutting helped, but I don’t do that anymore. I swam out of it when Dark came around.” Dark didn’t make a peep. Maybe he sensed Jamie wouldn’t hurt me. “This isn’t what you signed up for, and I don’t blame you, but I can’t go back. Sam’s gonna shoot me. Pop!” I mimicked a gun to my forehead. “Done. But, I don’t want you to keep me because you feel sorry for me either. Not just because it’s wrong, but also because we deserve better. Apart or together.”

Still nothing from Jamie. I lifted my head and looked around the kitchen. “Hello? Are you there?”

“I’m here,” Jamie said.

I searched the floor. He must have sat down, so I dropped to all fours and crawled to him. When I found him, I squeezed my body between his legs. “Shitty story, huh?”

Air whooshed passed me, lifting my hair.

Something crashed in the living room. I almost jumped out of my skin. My eyes blinked in rapid motion, and I felt around for the wall so I could crawl away from him. I didn’t really know where I was going, just that I didn’t like the sound of crashing around the house.

Jamie grabbed my hips and pulled me against him. He buried his nose into the crook of my neck. “I’m sorry about that. I’ll clean it up.”

“Okay.”

“It’ll take me a while to get used to us, and you’ll need to…talk me through and tell me things. You have to know, I’d do almost anything to keep you. I never wanted you to go back. And certainly not after this.”

“Thank you.”

“It’s not a favor. Right now I’m gonna take you upstairs, where you will remain for the rest of the day until I return. You will not try to ride the bike or go in the backyard. You will not open the door for strangers even if they’re dying on the front steps. You will not do anything until I return. You can play with your pussy. That’s it.”

My shoulders slumped in relief. Jamie carried me upstairs. “Where are you going?”

“Hunting. Just for sport.”

Wind blew inside the room when Jamie opened the window.

He howled.





Chapter Eleven





Jamie



It was seven o’clock the next morning when I returned home, happy to find Rey sleeping in our bed. She liked sleeping, so I didn’t bother her. I showered the blood off my hands and took some time picking off the flesh stuck behind my claws. I scrubbed my jaw. I needed a shave.

I took her purple razor and ran it over my face. I smiled at the beast in the mirror. My eyes still glowed icy cold, my teeth still in full descent, and my biceps were double their usual size.

Flesh stuck between my teeth. I threw the razor in the trash.

Floss in hand, I snuck white strand between my teeth and cleaned up..

A quiet knock on the door. “Jamie?”

“Come in, baby.” I opened the door. “I’m just brushing my teeth. Your uncle stinks, but he sure was tasty.”

“You ate him?”

Rey paled, so I clarified, “Not all of him. Only the good parts in the middle. My men had the rest.” I threw the floss and the toothbrush in the garbage.

Despite looking sick in the face, she managed a smile. She’d get through it. I couldn’t treat her like broken glass. She was a woman and my mate, and she wasn’t broken. Also, I had to tell her how shit worked. “You aren’t my pair, Rey. You’re my mate. You are the center of my universe. That’s what a mate is to a beast male. Your people damaged the center of my universe.” I rinsed and spat. “I had to make a show so everyone knows what’ll happen if the girls are treated the way you’ve been treated. We can’t take all the girls from their homes. It doesn’t work that way, and we need our mates. We shut down Community Seven.” Rey gaped at me. I shrugged. They hated us, and they’d hurt the girls because they couldn’t hurt us. “It’s over, and I got shit to do on that front, but me and you? We’re starting over. Let’s do it. Wanna get dressed and go to the marketplace?”
