Chapter |17|
Kai just looks me up and down confused so I repeat myself. "It's me, Avery. I've been looking for you everywhere but you must have changed rooms since I was here last."
I've been running around the pack territory for the last hour looking for Kai. Warriors were walking around everywhere and eventually one saw me and I shifted into Raven and ran. They couldn't catch me. The first building I saw was the packhouse and jumped through an open window inside.
"What are you doing here? I haven't seen you in years?" he asks and I reach for him but he takes a step back.
"Kai we saw each other a few weeks ago at the mating camp. We've been talking on the phone every day since. Do you not remember any of this?" I ask him. This situation is worse than I thought. He didn't just lose Titan but his memory too.
He scoffs. "Avery I haven't seen you since we were ten years old. I never went to a mating camp. I've been at home taking care of my pack."
"No you did go and with Matt and Lance, they can verify this. We reconnected and we found out amazing news, we're mates."
Kai backs even further into the room. He runs his hand down his face in disbelief. "No, no! This doesn't make any sense. My dad said-"
"Your dad lied, mine too. They know we're mates and want to keep us apart for some reason."
"No, my mate rejected me! my wolf is gone! Titan is gone!" he yells taking a step towards me with every word until he backs me into the wall again. He wraps his hand around my throat again but not as tight as before. "You're lying."
I stare right into his golden eyes. "Why would I lie? I love you Kai so much."
His unblinking eyes stare right back seemingly unconvinced by my words. Yet his body says differently as Kai presses his body closer to mine and I can feel how hard he is. The smell of his sudden arousal has my mind in a haze, making my core clench at the memory of him deep inside me.
His jaw ticks in annoyance as I press even closer to him. Kai's hand that was gripping my hip now travels up my back. His soft touch sends shocks all over my body making me whimper in response.
"Fuck Avery I've wanted to kiss you since I was eight years old," he whispers and I smirk.
"Then do it."
He slams his lips onto mine and our tongues go straight to fighting for dominance. Like always I give in letting him win. He grips my hips and I wrap my legs around his waist.
Kai starts walking us towards the bed on the other side of the room. Our mouths never leave each other as he lowers me onto the bed. I pull away so I can breathe and Kai takes that moment to start unbuckling his jeans. He pulls them down exposing his very large hard member.
I pull my shorts down immediately my panties going with them. Kai's back on me in seconds kissing along my neck. He's sucking and biting making me moan at the contact.
"Fuck darling you're so wet," he whispers as he lines up along my wet core and gently slides in.
His soft lips connect with mine again in a bruising kiss. Kai just keeps slamming into me harder and rougher. I'm so fucking wet and I swear I feel the shocks from our mate bond appearing making it feel even better. He's so rough as he fucks me into complete submission.
"Kai please I'm so close." I moan and his fingers strum my clit making me clench around him.
"Avery my little mate I'm about to cum already." he groans and thrusts one more time before he explodes inside me. My legs shake at the same time reaching my own peak.
The room is completely silent except for our breathing as we come down from our high. I caress Kai's face when he suddenly pulls out of me. He quickly gets dressed and glares at me.
"That was a mistake," he says sending a sharp pain right to my chest.
"What?" I'm so confused. I thought he enjoyed it.
"Get fucking dressed and get out! I'm supposed to be saving myself for my mate not fucking some pack slut! Get out!" he snaps and points at the door.
I quickly pull my shorts up and put my shoes on. Kai has his back to me and I can feel how confused and tense he is. I walk towards him wanting to hug him but stop myself.
"Kai, please we did nothing wrong, were mates. Do you not remember calling me that when we made love?" A tear rolls down my face and I wipe it away.
"I didn't fucking say that!" he turns around and all I see is disgust written all over his face. "I don't know you, Avery, maybe when we were kids but not now."
I nod. "You're right. But I'm not going to give up. I'm going to prove to you that we're mates. We're destined to be together."
He scoffs. "Good luck with that. I'm a lost cause."
I caress his face and this time he doesn't stop me. "Just because you're a little lost doesn't mean I'm giving up on the man I love. I'll come search for you every time."
He looks like he wants to say something when someone knocks on the door. "Room check," they say and Kai hurries to the door before they open it.
"Go the fuck away!" he shouts through the closed door.
"Kai is that you? What are you doing in there?" the wolf on the other side asks and Kai glares at me. I beg him with my eyes not to mention me and he sighs.
"Are you the fucking Alpha or am I? Don't fucking question me, Chris!"
"Whatever, the intruders still haven't been found. I heard it's two hot little she-wolves though. If you find them send them to my room." he laughs and I hear him walk away.
Kai's still staring at the door when I approach him. "Kai we need to go, come with me please."
He glares at me. "You should go, Avery, like I said this was a mistake."
I nod and even though I don't want to go I need to find Kayla and Lance and tell them what I know. Kai doesn't have his wolf and he has amnesia. I just hope it's not permanent. Our parents split us up before I won't let them win again.
I reach up and kiss his cheek. "I'll be back for you, I promise," I say as I open the door.
"Goodbye, Avery." He whispers.
