Chapter 3

Skyler woke up wondering where she was, what had happened and why she hurt so much. Was she in the hospital? Had someone found her injured and on the side of the road somewhere? She opened her eyes and looked at the room around her. It was wide and spaciously decorated with warm earthen tones that had touches that were wholly male. Skyler leaned over to sit up, only to scream in pain and fall back against the bed. The waves of pain Skyler felt radiating throughout her chest stole her breath away. Panting loudly, Skyler tried to calm herself and make her breathing shallow. Skyler's panic only grew; building in her chest causing her heart to race Skyler did the only thing she could do. She screamed

"HELP ME, SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME! IS ANYBODY OUT THERE?"

********************

Shifting the heavy burden of dirty linens from Cable's room, Jessie wished that she wasn't an omega, but she knew if she wanted that to change, that complaining wouldn't get her there. Jessie passed the large mahogany doors of the Alpha's room, wishing she had been born with enough rank for Carson to notice her. Heaving a sigh, Jessie went to the laundry room on the alpha's floor. Opening the washer door, she stuffed the sheets into the washer and loaded it with soap and fabric softener. Walking down the hallway once more to grab all Cable's dirty laundry from the beautiful hand carved mahogany hamper.

"Almost done Jessie?" Cable winking with goofy smile.

"Yes Cable, this is the last of it. Then I'll let you have some peace and quiet." Jessie was looking at the floor, not only from submission but because she could barely contain the redness creeping through her face. She wished Cable would notice her but knew that in all likelihood he didn't even know she existed.


"There's no rush Jessie. I'm not doing anything too important."Cable tried to catch her

eyes.

Grabbing the clothing, Jessie rushed out of the room and hurried down the hall only to come to a halt when she heard screams coming from the Alpha's room. Dropping the clothing, Jessie ran back to Cable's room and burst through the door panting. "Cable...you have to come...quickly...there's screaming coming from Carson's room. I think there's something wrong with the human."

"Screaming? Go get Carson, quickly! Tell him I need him in his room immediately and if Gabe is here then tell him to come too." Cable going out the door and running down the hallway still throwing orders over his shoulder. "Go now. Hurry!"

"Yes Sir." Jessie panted for breath, while trying to keep up with him. Seeing an Omega who had just come of age a week ago walking down the hall Jessie grabbed him by the arm.

"Take care of these clothes. Go to the laundry room on this floor and make sure that they are all washed and dried properly. I will take care of the folding and returning of them to their proper rooms. Now go!"


"Yes Ma'am." The young Omega answered with a slight look of envy on his face.

********************

Skyler heard someone opening a door near her room and screamed once more, hoping that someone would hear her. "Please can somebody help me? Does anybody hear me? Please help!" At the sound of someone walking away Skyler lost all hope of having someone come to her aide. Being cautious from the pain in her ribs, Skyler slowly began to lift herself off the bed only to notice a strange feeling coming from her right hand. Skyler saw a plaster cast going half way up her forearm and wondered who had tended to her injuries.

Slowly standing, Skyler winced at the pain that shot through her ankle. She pulled the top sheet off of the bed and covered herself as best she could, wondering where her clothes were. Sensing that there was still danger Skyler hobbled across the room, panting as she made her way to a dimly lit bathroom. Not watching where she was going, she tripped over a chair with a small desk beside it and toppled the lamp and vase from it in the process. Skyler made her way to the door; leaning against the door frame, Skyler she rubbed her hand against the wall. Searching for a light switch. Finding it, she flicked it on illuminating a bathroom any woman would die for. Skyler walked over to the mirror that spanned a wall of the room from floor to ceiling. Making her way to the sinks, she leaned against the counter. Skyler stared in shock as she took in what she saw in the mirror.

Oh my god is that really me? Skyler thought looking into the mirror. Her hair was pale and her face was covered in bruises, her eyes looked sunken in with large bags under her eyes and the pale flesh on her shoulders was a combination of deep purple bruises and angry red scrapes and gashes from the rocks. How in the hell did I get here? All I remember is the attack and then wolves then the world went black. I was miles from anything. So who brought me here? Am I dead...no I can't be dead; if I was dead then I wouldn't be able to feel pain. Damn it, where in the hell am I? This can't hospital, the rooms are far too lavish, and there are no nurses looking after me. I can't rest long before I need to run...well hobble my way out of here. Then I am going to demand answers from the first person I see. Hearing a noise, Skyler leapt off the cool toilet seat and ran to slam the door before whoever it was could get in.

********************

Muttering a few choice curses, Cable tripped over the roll away cot on his way to Carson's bedroom. Opening the door, Cable was shocked at the scene before him. Carson's bed was empty, the pillows were on the floor and the sheet was missing. As he wandered further into the room he saw that Carson's favorite hand carved chair and table were in disarray on the floor. Seeing the light shining from the bathroom, Cable slowly crossed the room until he could see into bathroom. Good god! How in the hell is she even conscious? Cable thought as he saw the young woman standing in front of the mirror in awe. Knowing that she was spoken for and off limits, Cable couldn't help but let his eyes roam over her ripe young figure. Moving closer in order to get a better look, Cable accidentally kicked the fallen vase, which made a resounding thunk as it hit the sturdy pillar of the leg.

Running to the bathroom door, Cable barely had a chance to shove his foot through the door. "Wait Skyler, listen to me. I'm not going to hurt you. You can shut the door if it makes you feel more comfortable but I want you to know that we're not going to hurt you. You're safe here." Cable gave her what he thought was his most endearing smile.

Scoffing Skyler couldn't help but doubt his words. "Well you'll have to excuse me if I don't exactly believe you. But in the past 24 hours I have been kidnapped, attacked, nearly raped and almost eaten by wolves. So I'm sure you can understand my reluctance. I want something more than reassuring words to protect myself."

Thinking that a small human would be no threat to him Cable decided to give her his knife. "OK. Fine. Here take my knife; you can use it if I try anything. But come out here, let's talk. You don't need to be afraid anymore." Cable laid his knife on the floor about a foot away from the bathroom door.

Walking out of the bathroom Skyler snatched up the knife and stood glaring at Cable."How do you know my name? And how do I know you're not going to hurt me like that bastard did? Get over by the door and then we'll talk." Skyler was glad that her voice didn't waver with the fear coursing through her.

Backing towards the door Cable tried once again to calm her. "It's OK Skyler, no one will hurt you; I won't hurt you. I know your name because it was on your license. It was in your purse. Carson sicced the dogs on that bastard. Then he carried you back here. Carson will be here soon. He'll explain it all to you. Why don't you rest yourself on the bed? Carson wouldn't be very happy with me if he thought I made you hide in there. I didn't mean to scare you. Besides Gabe will want to take a look at you and make sure you're OK" Cable said teasingly.

"Who's Carson, and why would I let some guy named Gabe look at me? I'll lay down when you leave. I don't trust you. But who would blame me; considering what's happened." Skyler opened the door only the tiniest crack.

"I'll leave when Carson gets here and I'm sure your ok." Cable slowly backed away from the door and went to stand in the doorway that led to the sitting room.

Clutching the knife Skyler hobbled to the bed. Sitting down on the edge, Skyler sighed in relief as the pressure was taken off her sprained ankle. Skyler tried to calm herself but she was still on edge.

"So, who in the hell is Carson? You said he carried me here. And how did he even know I was out there?"

"How do I put this, Carson, well he's different. He's very in tune with nature, with his animal side so to speak. He has a habit of going out without telling anyone, he's in charge around here. He heard you screaming while he was wandering with some of the estate's dogs and went to investigate. He sicced the estate's dogs on the man who was attacking you when he saw what was happening. He won't hurt you or anyone ever again." said Cable inching closer.

Cable's head whipped around when the sitting room door banged open and he found himself at the mercy of a human who only had a knife. Skyler wasn't thinking, she was in survival mode. Skyler had grabbed Cable when the door opened not knowing who or what was going to come through that door.

Leaving Gabe in his sitting room Carson charged into his room, he couldn't believe what was going on in his room. Skyler, the girl who should have been in severe pain by now, was very much awake. In fact she was holding a knife to his closest friend's throat. She was using him as a shield. Cable's wolf responded to the threat as the changes began.

Catching Cable's eye, Carson shook his head. ~Don't hurt her; she's scared, alone and in a strange place. Surrounded by men she doesn't know. Leave now and take Gabe with you, I'll page you when we need Gabe.~ Not giving Cable a chance to answer

Carson walked over and gently pried the knife from Skyler's hand. "Why don't you lie down on the bed? Rest; you've got a concussion." Carson spoke in a gentle voice.

Skyler didn't quite know why but the tone of Carson's voice seemed to put her at ease and sooth the anxiety. She had barely known this Carson guy for five minutes and she was already willing to obey him like a child. She didn't know why but she felt safe around Carson, she somehow knew that he would keep her safe. Looking closely at Carson, Skyler couldn't keep her mouth from watering. Despite her injuries she couldn't stop herself from lusting after him. Oh my god I must be crazy. I was just attacked and nearly raped and I'm thinking about what I could do. What the fuck is wrong with me.

Skyler was having some sort of debate with herself; he began to quickly and quietly re-arrange the room and put things back in their place. Sweeping up the last of the broken vase, Carson went over to the large mahogany dresser where he took a pair of boxers and a t-shirt out for her to sleep in. That would allow her some modesty but still make it possible for Gabe to check her injuries.

"I know it's not much but you can wear theses until you're fully healed. They'll give you a bit of comfort. Would you like me to help you put them on, and then get into bed Skyler?"

Skyler was still furious with herself; she didn't realize she was being spoken to until she heard her name being called. "Hmm, what was that? Did you say something?"

"I said would you like me to help you put these on then get back into bed?" Carson slightly lifted the t-shirt.

Looking down at herself covered only in the loosely wrapped bed sheets, she blushed profusely but shook her head. "No, I think I'll be able to manage myself thank you very much." Her pride forcing her to try to dress herself only to stop suddenly, sucking in her breath as her ribs shifted.

Hearing her hiss of pain, Carson walked over and began to help her dress speaking gently. "Ok I'm gonna pull this over your head so just stay still for a minute. Ok you still with me?" Skyler nodded. "Ok now, I'm going to gently move your arm to get it through the sleeve, moving it might hurt a hell of a lot, but I think it'll make you feel a bit less."

Skyler again nodded. Carson gently began to move her arm slowly. Looking up at Skyler, he saw her grit her teeth, though she hadn't said a word. He would never understand why humans were so preoccupied with modesty. Having put her broken arm through the sleeve, he looked up at Skyler. "Do you think you can put your other arm through its sleeve or do you still need my help?"

"I can do it." Skyler moved her arm up to push her left arm through its sleeve, gasping at the sharp pain that shot through her taped ribs.

"You've never had broken ribs before have you?" Skyler shook her head. Carson gently pulled her forward and leaned her head against his chest. He picked up her left arm and began to slowly move it through the sleeve, feeling Skyler shudder as he did. With her arms through both sleeves the shirt finally fell covering the rest of her torso, mid thigh. Reaching up under the shirt, Carson didn't give Skyler a chance to be outraged or embarrassed as he pulled the sheet off her legs. "I think your underwear was salvaged. Would you like me to help you with those?" Too embarrassed to answer Skyler, merely nodded her head. Carson grabbed the scrap of cotton that he had shoved into his drawer after they had been cleaned He put them over her legs and gently lifted them to her hips, pulling them into place. Skyler looked down at Carson kneeling down on the floor in front of her like that and couldn't keep the lust out of her mind. Carson's musky smell was driving her insane.

He was confused when he could suddenly smell her arousal; the scent nearly drove him mad. It made his wolf want to just take her and claim her as his own. His wolf wanted nothing more than to share its kill with her. Carson could barely contain himself; he had to keep reminding himself that she was injured. Shaking his head and clearing his throat, Carson stood up. Gently picking up a very startled Skyler. Carson put her in the large overstuffed chair beside his bed. He then stripped everything off the bed and re-made it, throwing the dirty laundry in the hamper, leaving the blankets down. Carson fluffed up the pillows and arranged them so that Skyler could comfortably sit propped up. Walking over to the chair Carson leaned down and looked into Skyler's eyes, "Ready?" Skyler nodded. Carson leaned down and picked Skyler up, hearing the sharp intake of breath again as her unhealed ribs shifted at the contact. Carson carried her to the bed. He placed her down and propped her up, fluffing the pillows slightly.

"Now I'm more than willing to answer any questions you have, as long as you promise to let Gabe look at you once I've answered them all. You're free to leave at any time of course, but since you were hurt on my property I must ask that you at least allow a doctor check you out before you leave."

"I understand; you have to cover your ass to prevent a lawsuit."

"No Skyler, I don't want to cover my ass as you so eloquently put it. I won't have your death hanging over my head, knowing that I could have prevented it."

"Yeah, whatever you say slick. Ok so that other guy said that you were out wandering the woods on your estate and you heard me screaming. Well if this place is so big that it's classified as an estate then why in the hell didn't you just have security come help me? Instead you sent out the dogs, which I could swear were wolves. Anyone who's ever had dogs would think the same. I've never seen or heard of any dog being that big. So to sum it all up Mr....whatever your name is, I want to know just what the hell is going on around here."

Carson listened to Skyler's little rant, with a mixture of shock and amusement at the fact that this young human was so very perceptive and had more balls than most men he knew, yet she was also soft and fragile and probably the most desirable female he had seen in decades

"I'm going to be honest with you Skyler, they were wolves and they do live here. I did try to get to you; I sent the wolves because I knew they would be faster than me. By the time I got there you were already unconscious. I saw the blood and was trying to piece together what had happened so I brought you here. I found your purse along the walk back. The minute I got you here Gabe looked at you then took you down to the infirmary to fix you up. Once he was done bandaging you up, he brought you back up here. It was the only place I could put you where we were sure you would not be bothered. I've been sleeping in the sitting room so I could be there if you woke up and needed help."

"You what? I'm unconscious and you're sleeping in the next room, the one which I would have to use to leave, but you were there to "protect" me? Sounds more like guarding the prisoner to me, making sure I didn't try to escape while you were sleeping perhaps? I mean are you always this paranoid? I was unconscious for fuck's sake." The look of disbelief was evident on her face.

Carson's rich melodious laughter filled the room defusing some of the tension.

"Do you honestly think I would go to so much effort to try to keep you from leaving? I hate to say this but if you left it would be much easier for the entire estate. I've had to arrange for a dead body to removed, carry you about 4 miles to the estate, have my estate doctor woken up at one in the morning, find enough medical supplies to use on you and wake up everyone who lives here in order to tell them you're off limits so you can rest without disturbance. So was I trying to keep you from leaving? In a word, no. I was trying to make sure you would be ok. I could easily sleep elsewhere, but then where would you be if you needed help."

"Ok, I'll accept that reasoning for now but that's only because I'm exhausted and too tired to argue."

Skyler couldn't believe that she was aroused by this infuriating man. His voice was deep and melodious and those eyes, god it felt like he could look right through her. And his body was to die for; it was like a solid wall of muscle. Skyler had known men who were gym fanatics who couldn't get a body like that in a million years. Skyler had images of her whole and healed for her first meeting with Carson and it didn't take a genius to figure out where they ended up each time.

** Skyler managed to stop kissing Carson long enough to open her apartment door, pushing their way past the kitchen in her loft. Carson started kissing down the side of her neck taking small nibbling bites as he went.

"You are wearing far too many clothes," said Carson while pulling her shirt over her head."

Skyler let Carson pull her shirt over her head and felt the rosy blush begin spreading over her face and chest. Her breaths began coming in short little pants as Carson took teasing bites along her collar bone. **
