Roy effortlessly carried Kimberly's bridal style, as she was featherweight, which made him worry about how she fed.

"Oh my goodness! What happened?" Christine gasped when she noticed Roy carrying an unconscious Kimberly upstairs.

"She fainted." Was all he said before disappearing from her view.

Roy carried her into his bedroom and placed her gently on his bed, staring lovingly at her. He reached for her face and slowly caressed it with his fingers.

'Roy, why is it so difficult for you to come to the terms that she is your mate and just make her yours?'

He wished she was a werewolf like himself and not a human, that way it would've been as easy for him as it was for every other werewolf.

The more he caressed her face, the more he didn't want to stop but he noticed his wolf was slowly trying to take over. He quickly withdrew his hand and left the bedroom so he wouldn't end up doing something he'd regret for the rest of his life. While jogging downstairs, he found his aunt worriedly pacing back and forth in the living room making him remember that he was previously upset with her.

Christine couldn't help but worry about Kimberly. She should never have left her side, none of this would've happened if she had stayed by her side. Now Roy would get mad at her which was bound to happen because he left his guest in her care and she messed up.

"Why did you leave her alone?!" Roy angrily asked causing his aunt to flinch in both fear and surprise as she didn't notice his presence.

"R-Roy, I c-can explain. I didn't mean to..."

"I asked you to take good care of her, to watch over her, yet, what did you do? You left her alone, all by herself and vulnerable!" He yelled.

Christine was really scared because it wasn't just Roy talking to her, his wolf was also speaking as his eyes had turned yellow and his voice was no longer his

"I'm s-sorry.,  alpha. I never intended to leave her like that, she wanted to be alone... I-I tried to comfort her but she refused me." Christine explained with her head low in submission.

Roy hated what was happening at the moment, he didn't mean to get angry at his aunt. He knew what happened wasn't her fault and he hated showing this side of himself to his loved ones but his wolf wouldn't have any of that, it was upset to see Kimberly alone and in such a state. Roy closed his eyes, internally fighting with his wolf, he needs to learn how to control his wolf around his family. Letting out a heavy sigh, he opened his eyes.

"I'm sorry, aunt. I didn't mean to react that way." He apologized taking his trembling aunt in a warm embrace.

After some minutes, Christine relaxed into his touch and returned the hug.

"I'm sorry," he whispered placing a kiss on the top of her head.

"It's okay." He heard her mumble.








Kimberly slowly stirred on the bed before opening her eyes to an unfamiliar bedroom. Where is she? And how did she get here? She wondered racking her brain for answers but only ended up having a headache. She took a careful look at the room she was in, it was an all-black and grey-themed room, and the sheets, duvet cover, and pillows were black or grey. Whoever owned this room sure had a thing for the color black. Then it hit her, Roy's living room consisted of black furniture.

"It can't be!" She gasped.

But how did she end up here? She thought she was with Christine. Yeyes they were together and they took a walk outside.

Kimberly carefully got out of bed and made her way out of the bedroom into the familiar hallway. Her head hurt like hell as she took gentle steps down the stairs. On getting to the living room, she found Roy and Christine having a conversation but they suddenly stopped and turned towards her direction like they had sensed her presence. That was creepy.

"Kimberly dear, how are you feeling?" Christine asked with a warm smile but Kimberly could see through her smile that she was worried and was trying to conceal it.

Why does this woman even care so much about her when she barely knew her?

"I think I have a headache." she honestly replied.

"I'll get you some painkillers," Christine said and was about to walk out of the living room when Kimberly suddenly held her hand, preventing her from leaving.

"Is something wrong?" She asked confused by Kimberly's action.

"I'm sorry, I-I just wanted to know what happened... I mean... How did I end up in that bedroom?"

Kimberly was barely audible as she felt embarrassed to ask such a question in Roy's presence. She was grateful when Christine answered her question because she didn't think her voice was audible enough and she wasn't ready to repeat herself.

"You fainted, so Roy took you upstairs," Christine replied stroking Kimberly's hair all so gently.

Kimberly was relieved by her reply as she enjoyed Christine's motherly touch, but it seemed like Christine was fond of her hair. She shouldn't be getting used to this treatment because she would be leaving this place soon, she mentally cautioned herself.

It just dawned on her that she was just told that Roy had carried her to his bedroom. But why did he take her to his bedroom? She wondered as her thoughts went back to Christine's reply. She couldn't help but steal a glance at him, she noticed he was staring at her with a blank or should she say unreadable expression. She guessed he was still mad at her.

"I'll be right back," Christine said turning Kimberly's attention back to her. She nodded and watched as the middle-aged woman went upstairs, probably to get the painkillers.

Kimberly's eyes slowly wandered back to Roy who suddenly stood up from the couch he was previously seated on and walked out of the house to her disappointment. He didn't even give her the chance to properly apologize for what she did. Tears welled up in her eyes and she had no idea why his action was hurting her this much.

Roy was telling his aunt about the meeting when he perceived her scent causing him to stop, his aunt sensed her too and they both turned in her direction. Her skin was pale and her eyes were puffy and red from crying, he could feel his wolf getting angry at the sight, they wanted her to always have a smile on her face and they wanted to be the reason behind her smiles. He couldn't take his eyes off her as she was a beauty to behold, but why was she human? That was a major disadvantage, preventing him from marking and claiming her as his right here and now.

Roy watched carefully as Kimberly talked with Christine. What broke his heart was her sudden facial change when she was told that he had carried her to his bedroom. She had a confused, sad, and disapproving look on her face causing any hope he had of them being together to shatter. He couldn't take it, her facial rejection was more than enough for him, and he didn't want a verbal one. This was even more heartbreaking than when he hadn't found her, that was why he stood up and walked out of the house as soon as his aunt headed upstairs.














Awwwww!
Poor Roy 😞
