Facing our demons

Chapter 15- mystery man

Chapter song: when I get home you're so dead-Mayday Parade

I stared down at the ink that was permanently written on my hand, it's bold dark letters and unique font had kept me mesmerised as my mate was no where to be seen.

He had left earlier telling me it was something about a ceremony? I honestly didn't want to know what that meant or why it was so important. I don't even know how long I've been here for, maybe a week and a bit? It's quite frightening really, whenever Andy's around my mind shuts down and time seems to freeze allowing me to get lost in a delusion where I live happily ever after with him.

As if. I have to remember that he's a monster, a cold, heartless, hot, handsome... Bad Alaska. I can't give in to him or his stupid smirk, I remember I was discussing pack politics with a couple of people when Pete told me that Andy ate innocent children for brunch and Pete has never steered me wrong before....

Silence rung throughout the house reminding me that I was completely alone, I wonder if Andy will let me get a puppy? A strange clicking noise startled me and I spun around to see where it was coming from. My vision was drawn to the window and I watched in horror as the dainty little gold latch slowly began to lift until the window was no longer locked.

What the fuck? Okay If I hadn't already lost my sanity a long time ago I would definitely say I was going crazy. I stared unmoving at the window as the sound came to an immediate halt. A loud thump echoed around the room and the window flew open causing me to fall back in surprise.

I sat on the floor carefully peering over the bed at the window waiting for some kind of monster to come and get me. Maybe it's the tooth fairy, she might still be pissed at me for putting grandad's fake gold tooth under my pillow when I was seven because I needed money to buy a new paint set. What? It was gold I thought she'd give me extra or something.

Instead it just resulted in my mum telling me she didn't exist and yelling at me for stealing gran's tooth. I was pulled from my thoughts when a strange black mist started to float in through the window and into my room. It was as black as night and had a very daunting feel about it, it gently swept over my floor leaving no trace or marks behind it. The mist began to swirl and rise into a form that resembled a tornado, I watched intently as it began to dissipate leaving behind....a human figure?

Oh my god he could be a pervert, a murderer or even a Donald Trump supporter! I opened my mouth ready to scream when I felt a hand cover my mouth. "Please don't scream, I promise I won't hurt you" I looked at the stranger skeptically before nodding. "Okay I'm gong to remove my hand now, you promise you won't scream?"

I rolled my eyes before nodding again, he didn't have to speak to me like I was a child. He removed his hand and took a slow step back looking ready to clamp his hand back over my mouth if I decided to break my promise. I assessed the stranger weighing my options on whether or not I would be able to defend my self or if I should just run.

He had adorable brown hair that fell over his forehead in the cutest way, bright green eyes that tracked my every move and large dimples that made it look like his cheeks were about to cave in. He wore an all black outfit that consisted of black gloves that stopped at his knuckles, black skinny jeans and a modern looking black cloak that stopped just above his knees, it had long sleeves and big silver buttons that were stitched so that they joined the fabric together diagonally.

"Oh god are you one of those delusional teen vamp kids?" He cocked his head to the side and looked at me confused. "You know that high school clique that thinks they're vampires so they dress up and act like them." "I most certainly am not a 'teen vamp kid' and I graduated high school last year" he said crossing his arms.

"Well then you must be a murderer so in that case I'm going to scream" I opened my mouth but was once again disappointed when he clamped his gloved hand over my mouth. "Did you miss that whole swirly black mist thing Orr....?" "Ah justhm mah Hera der exethermerfer" "what?" He asked removing his hand.

"Yeah I just assumed you were eccentric" "so you weren't intimidated at all by the black mist that turned into a guy?" "Nope, it was actually quite pretty"

He face palmed before sighing and looking at me. "Why are you sitting in Andy's room?" "Am I not aloud to sit in my mate's room?" I asked calmly watching the intruder. "Mate! Oh you poor soul being mated to that bastard"

"I take it you don't like him" "nope, we're kind of enemies" I raised an eyebrow at him allowing a chuckle to pass my lips. "Then why are you in his room?" "I come and 'borrow' his video games sometimes, I didn't expect someone to be in his room" a cute blush tinged his cheeks as he spoke.

"Why don't you just buy you're own?" "Because I don't have any money" he said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Then how do you get food and where do you live?" I asked with obvious concern painting my face, even if he does end up being a Donald Trump supporter he still deserves a bed and food.

"I live at the guild, they provide supplies and such" "
guild?"
"Yeah that's where all of the Telepathies live"
"Telepathy?" God I sounded dumb right now.
"Yeah you know like telepathic, we control things with our mind" he said while tapping his head with his index finger.

"That's so cool!" He smiled widely before puffing out his chest. "Yeah I guess it is" "so where are you're parents?" "they died when I was five, a demon possessed them and we both know people don't survive that" he looked down for a moment and scrunched up his eyebrows. "I don't even remember what they look like"

He looked completely heartbroken I couldn't help but wrap him up in a warm hug. "Thanks, no wonder the moon goddess chose you to be Andy's Luna" "what do you mean?" "Well you're hugging a complete stranger who broke into the room you're staying in just because he told you a bit of his sob story" I laughed at this and he joined in. "What the fuck is going on here?!"

I whipped my head around to see a furious looking Andy, I then realised he just walked in on his mate and his enemy hugging, well shit. His eyes were completely black and he was shaking from how furious he was. "Alaska come here" he said calmly but I didn't miss the hidden angry demand in his words. I quickly let go of um what's his name? Oh shit I didn't even ask his name. I scurried over to Andy and immediately wrapped me up and pressed my head into his chest making sure I couldn't see mystery man, yep thats what I'm going to call him now.

Andy let out a loud snarl as mystery man sat calmly on our bed inspecting his nails. "You shouldn't frown so much you'll get wrinkles" he told the Angry Alpha and I couldn't help but giggle. Andy let out another snarl before pressing my head deeper into his chest almost to the point where I couldn't breathe.

"MINE!" By this point I knew that his wolf had definitely taken over and we were all screwed. "Don't get your tail in a twist, we were just talking" "GET OUT!" Andy's voice was so deep it almost sounded demonic yet I still managed to find it really fucking hot, what's wrong with me?

"Woah dude you really need some chill, sure I'll go but I'll be back" I managed to turn my head just in time to see mystery man wink at me before he turned into the sleek black mist again.
"You are in so much trouble" Andy said in a deathly calm voice.
Well fuck.
