My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

2-105 “I think both. He made it clear he was having s*x with several girls, trying to get them pregnant, but he was different with Sky.” Jena clears her throat.

Xander rolled over so fast, it was a blur and he was hovering over my face before I could even react.. “You said he didn’t touch you!” He spit at me. “Doc Sylvia said she didn’t see any sign of…that!”

“And she wasn’t wrong, I didn’t have s*x with him, if that is what you are asking, he never got that far with me.” I said it loud enough for them all to hear so I didn’t have to repeat it. I didn’t have any fear of evesdroppers inside the maze and I really wanted this part of the conversation to be over. “And I won’t be the only target, especially if they want Alpha Reggie’s title. Xander and Oscar, you will be a natural target as well as your Luna when you find her.” I say looking right into Xander’s eyes. “Which means we all need to be on the lookout for any signs of their female mate as much as the rogues probably are too. Once you find her, all three of you will gain your full powers which will help with the kingdom’s safety, but also put you at a huge risk.”

“You think we are just going to slide past the no s*x comment? What did he do to you Midge?” Oscar is getting more bold the longer he is with Xander.

“Far enough for it to be memorable and to still have nightmares.” I look back over to Jena, whose nightmares end in screaming and waking up in a cold sweat. I can’t complain, because my pain is nothing like hers, it can’t compare. She looks at me and blinks once then looks back to the sky. We both want to pretend that those things never happened and agreed that if we ever have to talk about it, we stick to the absolute bare minimum facts, no emotion or feeling of any kind.

“What did you two just do there?” Nathaniel asks. “You had a conversation, but without words and you didn’t mindlink.” He looks not quite offended, but not quite amazed either. Somewhere in between. “When you share a dark stone cold cell, chained to the wall by your ankles and wrists with sliver manacles, lying in your own excrement, constantly given different kinds of poisons to suppress the inner wolf so mindlinking isn’t a possibility even if we were connected. And then to be subjected to and witness the kind of tortures that we did. A bond is forged in that kind of fire, that no one else can ever understand. Talking about it and reliving it is something neither of us want to ever do again. Please don’t ask anymore about our personal experience in that level of hell.”
