Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 76
Katya POV
Waking up I felt like I had been hit by a truck, every part of me felt broken. The rooms smelt like a brothel and I scrunch my nose up at the scent when everything smashed into me at once. Like a bad horror movie yet I starred in it. I could remember every detail yet it was like it wasn’t me, like watching an old fuzzy memory you aren’t sure is really yours.
I remember me attacking Mateo yet even that didn’t feel like it was me only I knew I did it. Remember Maddox and the Alpha’s. Everything but it wasn’t me, like someone else had the controls and I was purely an observer to my own actions. Shame and guilt pushed me up right in bed before I broke down. I assaulted Mateo, my own friend and cheated on Ezra.
“Woah lay back down, you are pretty badly banged up” comes Ezra’s voice beside me. I looked at him shocked he would even come near me after what I did.
“Hey, why are you crying?”
“Because I…” I couldn’t even bring myself to say it, the shame I felt at what I subjected Mateo too. The guilt I felt at what I put Ezra through.
“Kat, stop. Breathe” Ezra says, each sob took my breath, agony radiating up my side.
“Kat, you need to stop crying, your ribs are badly bruised, that’s why it hurts to breathe, I can get you some pain killers” Ezra says and I look at him.
Painkillers, why the F*ck would he get me painkillers, how could even look at me after what I did.
“Kat?”
“I cheated, I assaulted Mateo” I blurt out before crying and he flops back on his back with a sigh.
“You didn’t assault Mateo and you didn’t cheat on me, is that really why you’re crying? You were in heat Kat”
“But that doesn’t change what I did, how can you even look at me, Maddox must hate me”
“I don’t hate you and I told Mateo to stay with you. Anything you did or didn’t do is not on you or Mateo” Ezra breathes. His hand rubbing my back.
“I will get you some pain killers”
“I don’t need painkillers that is not why I am crying”
“Kat, look down” Ezra says, confusing me. I did and my skin was black and blue and I tried to remember how I got so badly bruised when I remember Mateo healing me.
Looking back at Ezra, I notice his entire chest and torso was littered in scars, the deepest down his ribs matching the bruising across mine.
“You look like you got put through a blender” I gasp.
“Thanks, nice to know. You healed me and we tried to heal you back but you were to busy trying to take what you wanted from me, Maddox was too weak to shift to heal you that was the best we could do”
“You tried to heal me after what I did?” I asked a little shocked.
“Oh my goddess Kat, you did nothing wrong”
“Mateo get in here” he yells out.
“What? Don’t call him, I can never look him in the eye again after what I did” I tell him, though I hear Mateo walking down the hall before the door opens.
“I’m naked” I squeak, ripping the blanket up to cover myself.
“Kind of defeats the point when you had your cooter rubbing on me” Mateo says and my face heats embarrassingly.
“Mateo do you feel assaulted, Kat thinks she assaulted you?” Ezra says waving his hand in his direction.
“Huh?” He chuckles.
“Oh right, you’re talking about when you were dry humping me in the bathroom, and gave me a massive case of blue balls to wake up to?” Mateo said, though he was smiling.
“Cheers for that by the way, my hands are so calloused from all the wanking and don’t get me started on my soldier, practically rubbed the skin off it,” he says.
“I’m so sorry” I tell him my face must be beet red, I could feel how hot my face was, like all my blood rushed to that area.
He winks at me, “it’s fine Kat, you can rub on me anytime. I won’t complain, though probably will not be advised with Mr cranky pants right there”
“I’m not cranky?” Ezra says.
“Oh yeah, sorry I forgot that’s just your normal face, whoops” Mateo says and Ezra lobs his pillow at him. Mateo shuts the door, the pillow hitting it before he opens it again.
“But as payment for my now broken D!ck, you two lucky people get to watch Finding Nemo with me tonight, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, how exciting for you both right?” Oh my gosh he was an idiot, a loveable one though, not a serious bone in his body.
“Fine” Ezra says and Mateo squeals like a girl.”Really? finding dory is on there too, movie marathon” Mateo squeals hurting my ears.
Ezra laughs, shaking his head.
“Well I shall leave you two lovebirds, oh and by the way I hope you haven’t got chapped lips, because there is no vaseline left and if you go into my room don’t touch the socks on the floor” he says, shutting the door and walking back out.
“See perfectly fine, so stress less” Ezra says tugging me down on his chest.
“Is Maddox mad?” I ask him tracing my finger over the scar on his chest.
