My Mate Had A Girlfriend novel Chapter 76

I looked around, trying to find him but there wasn't any sign of him. Gabriel was back!

"Gabriel is back, Brody! He wanted to kill me. He brought a knife along with him," I told Brody, panic.

"Alright, alright. Calm down. Look around, nobody's here. You'll be alright. It's just a bad dream," Brody coaxed and then lay me back down on the bed. "My room is just 2 doors away from yours. Should there be anything, don't hesitate to come to me. But right now, I assure you there won't be anybody in this room except you. You're safe here, alright?"

I nodded even though I didn't believe him. I haven't had this in a long time, so why now. Why was he back? Probably Gabriel knew that I was no longer with Calvin and he wanted me back. No! I do not want to be with a vampire. I've seen and watched how he was gonna mark me as vampire and I wouldn't want to go through that painful process.

I just wanted peace.

"You've got nobody to protect you now," Gabriel hissed. He was on top of me and he had one of his hands over my mouth so that I couldn't scream. I was aware of my tears flowing but Gabriel totally ignored that.

"No one cares about you anymore. Your brother hates you. Your mate is now with someone else because you don't know how to take care of him, how to please him," Gabriel laughed and then showed his fangs off.

I tried struggling but it was of no use because Gabriel was heavy and of course so much stronger than I was. And this carried on for several nights until Brody came to wake me up. Somehow, every time Brody wake me up, Gabriel will instantly be gone.

I knew I wasn't dreaming. I knew Gabriel was really here because it felt so real and even after Brody had calm me down a bit, I could still smell Gabriel around.

The thing about being with Brody was that, he couldn't give me the comfort that I needed. I felt welcome in his pack and Brody was being such a good big brother taking care of me but I could also feel that he was getting tired of calming me down after every nightmare each night. And after telling me that it was okay and that there was nobody else in the room, Brody would just leave whether I felt safe or not.

I knew I couldn't have asked more from Brody. By letting me stay in his pack, it was already a big thing done. I couldn't keep depending on Brody to keep myself safe. But the thing was I couldn't do anything to protect myself.
