"Maddox had Ellie in the Cellar, he was torturing her because she is a rogue but Kyle was here and he wanted to see Maddox so i brought him to the cellars and it turns out Ellie was Kyle's mate, Kyle and Maddox started fighting and I told Maddox that if he punched Kyle one more time I would leave him" I say, tears running down my face.
"Oh my, so she has been here this whole time?" Nicole asks and I nod, tears still running down my face.
"Is that why your crying?" She asks me.
I shake my head. "No, I think Maddox will leave me for treating him like I did, I am such a bïtch" I say in between sobs.
"Maddox will never leave you Jayda. You guys are meant to be and he is never going to let you go because he knows that there is no one as perfect as you are for him" she says with a smile.
"Jay?" I hear a croaky voice yell out. I run towards the living room.
"Yes Ellie?" i say quickly.
"What is all this talk that you found your mate?" She says with a smile, her face less swollen than before.
I smile lightly "I tried calling you as soon as I found him, but you never answered" I explain.
"I left my phone at home when I went to get you, I followed your scent to this territory and I seriously thought that they had taken you for being a rogue. But the pack fighters caught me as soon as I crossed the pack borders. This pack is strong let me tell you that" she comments.
"You knew about packs?" i gasp.
She nods "I had a bad experience with my pack because my Alpha was abusive and only cared about power. My mom and I ran away. I didn't want you to go through that so when I found out you were new to the werewolf world I decided not to tell you about packs. I'm sorry" she says guiltily.
"Its okay, if it weren't for you I wouldn't have found my mate" I tell her with a small smile.
"So, who is the lucky guy?" Ellie asks me and I tense, its not easy telling your best friend that your mate is the guy that tortured her.
"I am mates with Alpha Maddox" I tell her nervously.
"Alpha Maddox as in the guy that was clawing at my stomach less than 5 hours ago?" Ellie asks and Kyle growls making Ellie smile.
"Yes, but he is not the guy you think, he is an amazing mate and so sweet. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me" I tell Ellie.
She nods "I know, he only tortured me so bad because I didn't answer any of his questions and constantly made fun of his guards, he even said and I quote 'I do not like hurting woman, but since you are being a bitch and not telling me why you entered my territory I will have to torture it out of you' i just laughed so he started clawing at me. He is a great Alpha if you ask me" Ellie says shrugging.
I just stare at her. "Are you being sarcastic?"
"No, I really think he is a good Alpha. Jay thats how the werewolf world is. If Alpha's let rogues get away with things that sends a message and other packs and rogues will attack the pack" She says genuinely.
"Ohh okay ummm do you guys want something to eat? I didn't have breakfast today" I say uncomfortably trying to change the subject.
They all shake their heads and I nod and walk towards the kitchen.
I open the fridge and see there are microwavable beef and cheese burritos.
"Nikki! Can i have a burrito?" I yell out.
"You can have whatever you want Jayda, mi casa es su casa" Nicole says, the last part with a terrible spanish accent.
I laugh "You need to practice your accent Nikki, you still sound american when you try to speak spanish"
"Shut up, my spanish is perfect" she says and I can imagine her sticking her tongue out at me.
I roll my eyes "sureeee"
"Just eat the damn burrito and leave me alone" she snaps playfully and goes back to talking to Ellie and Kyle.
