The Unloved Mate

Isabella’s pov.

I woke up with a heavy headache. I sat up and g*****d, I looked around the unfamiliar surrounding and panicked. Where am I?

Then i remembered the attack. Someone took me! They kidnapped me. But i don’t think kidnappers keep their victims in such a beautiful room.

The door opened and a lady, probably around 50’s, came in with a warm smile. I don’t know what to do so i just kept a blank face.

She came in with a tray and set in in front of me.

“I see your up dear. I’m Linda, i brought you some breakfast, you should eat, your very weak.” She said softly and patted my head before leaving. I heard the lock, click and I knew the door was locked.

I uncovered the tray. It contained, pancakes, bacon, and eggs along with a small carton of milk.

I din’t realised how hungry i was until i saw the food. I slowly ate the food and when i was full i kept the tray aside.

Where am I? Who took me? And why? Oh god! Damien! Where is he? Will he be looking for me now? Uggh! I’m so confused!

The door opened again and a man with blonde hair and brown hair came in. He had a small smile on his lips.

“Hi, I’m Chris. I’m assigned to take care of you. You want anything, you tell me. Okay?” Chris said cheerfully. His nature reminded me of Nina.

I just nodded in reply.

“Hey listen, I don’t know why you are here, but whatever it is, you can’t leave. Just cooperate ok, then no one will hurt you. The boss is not bad.” He said and gave a reasuring smile.

“But I miss Damien and Nina.” Tears start building in my eyes as i think about them.

“Hey don’t cry. I can’t see a friend cry. That’s my weak point.” Chris said looking worried.

“I’m your friend?” I asked i asked confused, he is my kidnapper he is not supposed to be my friend.

“Yeah. It’s my talent. I make friends really fast.” He said and snapped his fingers.

“Ok”

“So….whats your name?” He asked “I’m gonna be around, so i need to know your name.”

“Isabella” i said.

And that’s how i made a new friend..

Damien’s pov.

Nate and some of the best worriers from my pack arrived at the mall. They all were pissed. But at the same time determined.

They are already protective of their luna.

“Alpha, what is the plan?” Nate said in a serious tone.

“We know the person who kidnapped bella. All we have to do is find where he is and bring my bella back.” I growled

“Who took our luna, Alpha?” A worrier asked.

“Adam!”

Growls were heard from every worrier.

“We leave in an hour. I have a vague idea where he could be. After all he didn’t forget what happened 3 f*****g years ago!” I exclaimed.

They all bowed their heads and left to prepare.

That thick head Adam. He just had to take her. Just when i found her and was started to become happy.

I have to end this, for both of us.

“It’s all my fault. If only i had not left her. If only i had gone with her, this would have never happened.” Nina cried on my shoulder.

I stroked her hair. “It’s not your fault Nina. Don’t blame yourself. It will be alright. I’ll bring her back.”

In an hour we were all ready to bring my mate back. We all settled in 3 cars. The place was not far away. It is were the incident happened. Where Adam burried all his humanity and became a heartless beast. Where his mate died. Where he killed her.

*********3 years earlier********

Adam was the Alpha of the neighbouring Pack. Adam, Nate and I were best friends.

We did everything together, but then Adam found his mate when he turned 17. Quiet early.

He had a mate to take care of but still spent every sunday with us.

Little did he know his mate din’t love him. She was there with him because he was the alpha. I knew this the day he introduced us to Kayla. The way she looked at us, we understood she was upto no good.

She always pretended to be blindly in love with him.

Once Nate and I caught her red handed with some filthy rogue. She din’t even deny it. But when we told all this to Adam, he din’t believe us.

He broke our friendship. Kayla convenced him that we were jealous of him, that’s why we are doing this.

From friends we become rivals. He did everything he could to take us down. But i knew he was under her influence, so we only defended.

Then the day came. He saw his mate with someone else. That someone. She was kissing him. It was me.

I had to do it. For him to see who she really was.

I had planned it all. I offered her the place as luna. Which was much bigger than Adam’s. I told her i loved her. But i was cautious. And i let her k**s me so Adam could see.

She admitted all her dirty deed in front of him. And he was left heart broken.

He killed her. On the spot.

I tried to explain to him, why i did it, but he din’t listen. He thought i did it to ruin him, and he promised to make me feel the same.

***********Present**********

He still thinks I did that to hurt him. He was my best friend! Why would i do that to him. I just wanted him to see the truth.

We arrived. The manor.

It was a mansion for the three of us. We received it from our parents when we were 10. We named it ‘the manor’.

I was right, he was here.

I walked in from the front door. I am not afraid. I went straight to Adams office. He was casually sitting on his chair.

He looked up and gave a small smile. It was not a cunning or evil smile. A genuine smile.

“Damien. I was expecting you. Come sit” he said as if we were friends. After that day it was the third time Adam has done anything. The first two time being small attacks on my pack.

“Where is Isabella, Adam. I don’t have time for bullshit like this.” I growled.

“I know you want to see your mate Damien, and not here to waste time either. So please have a seat.” He said, now serious.

I sat across him and looked at him expectantly. He sighed.

“I want to know what happened.” He said. I frowned. What?

“I want to know what happened to our friendship? Why did you do that to me, all those years ago.” He said with sad eyes

“I din’t do it willingly Adam. You were my best friend. I would never do anything to hurt you. Nate and I caught her with a rouge and we came to tell you, but you didn’t listen! You thought we were jealous of you! When she started doing it more we wanted you out of her clutch, thats why we planned everything. I offered​ her the position of luna in my pack. Of course it was not true. But she was convenced and then you saw us. It was all part of the plan. To help you see the truth.” I explained.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry i didn’t believe you. I’m sorry i broke our friendship. Im sorry i kidnapped your mate, but I wanted to know the truth. And i send message to you but there were no replies, so i had to do this.” He said.

“But why now. So suddenly.” I asked.

“I found Kayla’s diary in her box a week ago. It had everything in it.” He said sadly.

“It’s ok bro i understand now how you felt. I found my mate a week back.” I said and smiled.

“I know. I saw her. She’s a gem. And don’t worry, she is safe and resting now. We didn’t do anything, just wanted to solve this problem and hopefully get my best friends back.” He said. He had tears in his eyes.

I stood up and hugged him.

“Forgot about me you idiots!” Nate said from the doorway and tackled us.

We laughed and i called off the attack. I want to see my mate now.

“Adam. Isabella?” I asked.

“Oh yeah. I assigned Chris to take care of her. I’ll just call him” he said and took out his phone.

“What? Who is this Chris? And why is he with bella, alone.” I exclaimed.

“Relax, he doesn’t swing that way.” He said and i looked at him confused. He sighed again.

“Chris is gay!” He said.

Oh

Then a boy waltzed in the cabin and did a small salute.

“Hello boss, hello boss’ Friends. I’m Chris, but you can call me Chris.” He said and did a wave.

“Where is my mate.” I said straight to the point.

“Oh. She’s sleeping. Come on I’ll take you to her.” And he walked out with us following him.

He lead us to a room and opened it. It was a nice room. A normal room.

I saw a small figure sprawled on the bed. Bella! I was by her side in a flash.

She was sleeping soundly. I brushed some hair that had fallen on her face and caressed her cheeks.

She stirred and stretched like cat. She is so cute! I couldn’t help but smile. Her eyer flutter opened and landed on me.

I smile when her eyes widened.

“Damien?” She asked as if I am a dream.

I opened my arms and nodded. She flew in my arms and i chuckled.

“I missed you!” She said

“I missed you too, baby, more than you can imagine.” I replied and stroked her hair.

She looked at me smiling and before i know she crashed her lips on mine.
