"Fuck it!” My foot hits the pedal and I pull away, hoping that I was making the right decision for the kid.
It takes almost a week to get back to Black Shadow. Each night I stopped in a hotel to make sure we both got a decent night's sleep and to feed us both. Not once did she ever ask for food and my guess is that they starved her or only fed her on their terms. So she had learned to wait, to ignore the hunger growls in her empty belly.
The first day, she ate like a dog. lapping up the food with her mouth. She didn't know how to hold a cup without spilling and she definitely didn’t know how to use a knife and fork. She had been their pet, and from the age tag in her dress that said 2-3yrs, she had most likely been the bar's pet for years.
Dorothy was so excited when I picked her up some clothes, but didn’t seem to understand what I was saying when I said she could change every day. She kept insisting that a pink dress was her favourite and that she would wear it all the time. So I just bought more, so she could wear a fresh one every day.
She was even more excited by a teddy bear that one of the hotel staff gave her and carried it around everywhere with her.
How could people be such assholes? To have the desire to lock up a kid was sick.
Driving up towards Black Shadow, I'm stopped by a couple of Wolves. Smiles etched on their faces as they see that it's me. “Is he dead?” One asks “Not yet.” I glance at a sleeping Dorothy and the guy nods in understanding, waving me through.
Parking in front of the pack house, I could already hear Raven shouting at the top of her voice about something before I even got out of the car. She was pissed about something. And probably just as angry with me as I hadn't spoken to her since I left
Walking around the car. I lift a sleepy Dorothy from the passenger seat. She peers at me with ane eye. "Are we there yet?”
It had been her favourite question to ask, multiple times a day.
“We are.”
She straightens her spin, widening her bright green eyes as she looks at the massive house.
“Home?” she mumbles
"Home." Technically, it wasn't for me to decide, but I knew Neah wouldn't kick her out. Especially when she learns where Dorothy came from. Pushing the door open, I'm met with Eric, Raven and Dane, all glaring at one ancther.
Danes’ crimson eyes settle on me first as Raven slowly turns around to look at me. Her emotions flood through her as she stares at me. “Your....you're....you are here.” She mutters breathlessly, her hands clasped to her chest.
Her dark eyes move to Dorothy and she frowns for a second before her face softens. Most likely when she realised that Dorothy is a wolf, “This is Raven.” I tell the kid, “The one I told you about.”
“Your girlfriend?” Dorothy smiles as she stares back at my mate.
“Yes. And this is Dane. He is the cone in charge.”
“The Al...pha?
She had caught on pretty quickly with the terms when I was trying to teach her.
“And that man is Eric, he is Danes...”
"Beta." Shefinishes the sentence for me. I was'like a proud father. She: had todearn a lot in a short space of time" m Dorothy.” She mutters shyly -
Raven is just staring at me. I expected her to say more, but she stepped forward with a limp.
"Hey Dorothy, why don't you come with me and we will let the men talk.” She holds her arms out to the kid I'm carrying.
Dorothy looks at me first. “She’s good.” I tell her. “She's a doctor.
I put her down and she grabs Raven's hand. As they walk away. I hear her telling my mate about her pink dress and the teddy bear. “I take it he is dead.” Dane mutters when the office door closes.
“No, I ran into a bit of a problem.”
"So you brought her here?”
“She's a Wolf.”
"Why didn’t you take her to her pack?NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
‘She was being held hostage and likely for several years. She doesnt know what her parents are called, the only thing she is aware of is that sheds’ different to the men who WEE keeping her as a pet.” Content bélongs to =
I see the acknowledgement in his eyes. “He killed the people that were keeping Dorothy?
“Yes. Either because he was caught up in a frenzied attack to notice she was hiding, or because he knew I would help her and he used her to get away.”
look over To Eric, he still had a face. like thunder and hadn't spoken au word. But I could smell the booze on his clothes. Now it made sense why Raven was shouting. Content telongs to ~~
“You take responsibility for her.” Dane mutters, his strange eyes are darkening. “You brought her here, you lock after her.” “Of course.”
“That means you don’t go running off again. We work together, not alone.”
