The Pack Mate

10

"Why must you be like this?" Violet yells

"Because you are hurt!" Greyson yells holding down her shoulder

"I can get my own weed!"

"I'll get it for you"

"I love not leaving bed and everything but the fact your telling me no really makes it hard."

"Your such a baby" he says grabbing her pill bottle containing her herb

"I can't stand you, you know?" She frowns looking into the bottle

"What's wrong?"

"I gotta go out" she says standing he grabs her arm

"No your not"

"Oh my god would you stop this" she groans

"Not until your healed"

"Greyson I don't heal like you do. It'll be a week till I heal"

"Really? Being normal sucks"

"Yeah so I'm going and your going to deal with it" she walks to the closet changing into her ripped jeans and putting on Greyson's sweater- all her shirts being dirty.

She walks from the closet pulling on her timberlands.

"Is that my sweater?" Greyson asks from the entrance to the kitchen.

"You've caught me all my things need cleaning"

"You think you can just wear my things with out asking?" He asks approaching her

"Greyson" she warns, but he only grows closer soon enough he's inches from her.

"I thought you said you were going to be a good girl" he looks to her lips

"I have to go"

"You promised." He whispers into her ear.

Violet lets strangled breath as he kiss her jaw, once, then again. Then plants his lips onto hers

She grabs his face as he pulls her to him. He kiss her hard, like he's been dying to taste her, to touch her.

She pushes him off of her

"I have to go"she whispers

"Oh yes sorry go ahead" he smiles

She grabs her wallet and leaves the room.

It's dark out when Violet drives to the Mexican restaurant in town.

"Hola- Violet" the waiter says noticing who it is. "Pablo is in back room" he says going to a table.

Violet goes to the back of the restaurant into the kitchen, greeting familiar chefs, till she gets to a small office. She knocks twice and a boy with tan skin and dark hair and very nice clothes answers the door

"Oh Violet I was expecting you" Pablo laughs embracing her.

"Yeah just ran out. I only need some for myself."

"The usual?"

"Yep " she giggles. Pulling fifty dollars from her wallet.

He gives her the plant and after chatting Violet goes back to the pack house.

She prays Greyson is asleep, trying to avoid the awkwardness she doesn't smell the other female in his room.

She finds Rachel sitting on Greyson's lap, kissing him.

Violets heart drops at the sight of his lips touching Rachel's when they'd touched hers almost an hour ago.

"Violet" Greyson says obviously surprised

"Uh my bad" she says unfazed. "I'll just sleep somewhere else."

"Violet" Greyson calls but she begins her walk to Emma's room. Stopping when she smells cole in her room.

"Harken then" she grumbles going back out to her car.

It takes five minutes for Violet to get to the small house on the outer border of pack territory. After texting harken she walks into the house-something she usually does to not wake his father.

All the lights are off in the house beer bottles litter the counters.

"Stop!" She hears Caleb yell from somewhere in the house. She follows the sound down to the basement

Harkens dad, bloodied fists punch Caleb across the face. He falls to the floor with a thump, and scoots away as the large man beats his son.

Violet runs to the boy helping him up "what happened?" She asks him

"He caught us he came home drunk and he caught us" he says blood dribbling from his nose, tears covering his cheeks

"Go" she hisses

"No!" he begins to protest but harken yells for him to leave and he does

Violet then, swallowing her fear as she looks to her friend who gets hit by his fathers hand. She runs into the man knocking him down, falling with him.

He grabs her hair standing throwing her into the cement wall.

She looks to harken his face bloodied 'go' she mouths he shakes his head as the mans shoe connects with her gut. "Now harken!" She whimpers and he runs up the stairs

His fathers boot hits her face making her head spin and her vision blur. He doesn't stop kicking her. Even when she'd thrown up from the force in her stomach. It feels like hours- years maybe until he spits on her and trudges upstairs.

She feels utterly broken but still-with shaking legs stands her body screams in pain. She gets to her car driving to the pack house, telling herself to ignore the pain raking her body.

Slowly she makes it up the stairs to Greyson's room. It's dark but she finds her way to the bathroom. Turning on the light after closing the door and locking it

She finally lays on the cold marble floor. Hot tears running down her face mixing with the blood covering it.

She cries on the floor not for the pain of what the horrible man did to her, but what he was doing to his son And Caleb who are so in love and so unable to express it because of his hate

She cries for her best friend, who is not allowed to love
