I pace as I try to figure out how to word it. He needs to know. But it's hard, trying to put it into words and relive the experience. I was also still terrified he would reject me because of it.

"Okay.... Okay. Alpha Ian took me when I was 16, Remmy. I was out in the woods, just walking home and he smacked me on the head with something. When I woke up, I was chained up somewhere underground. It was cold, so cold. I was scared.He...He... For three months he held me captive. Each night was a different torture. The night I escaped.... I was sure I was going to die. But I woke up in the pack hospital."

"What did he do? Cal, goddamn it what did he do?!!"

I flinched and sunk to the floor, taking a deep breath I let the tears fall freely as I felt it all over again, reliving it all.

"That night... He came down to my cell.... He was drunk. He used a knife.... He cut my clothes off, beating me and stabbing me in random places. After he had me naked.... He..... He... He raped me. I tried to stop him. I fought as hard as I could. I really tried to stop Him. He tried marking me... But it didn't work. When it didn't work he.... Kept beating me. Then I pretended to be dead and he left my body in the woods. That's when I ran back to the pack."

The sudden feral growl that erupted in the room frightened me. I was already panicking from having to relive the pain. Remmy jumped to his feet, his eyes redder than I have ever seen them. Xander, his wolf, was in control. He ran up to me, grabbed my hair, pulled my face back to look at him, and bit down on his mark. I screeched in pain clawing at him, trying to break free.

"STOP. NO. PLEASE. IT HURTS!! HELPP!!!!!"

I screamed, his father ran in and pulled Remmy off of me. Mel, Anna and John ran in and saw me clutching my neck, blood running down my side, soaking my shirt.

"What the fuck?! Remmy ... What in the fuck?"

His father roared at him. I was trembling, confused.

"HE RAPED MY MATE. MINE. SHES FUCKING MINE!!!"

He roared at his father, trying to get back to me. Anna and Mel stood in front of me and growled at him, threatening him to come closer.

"So, you fucking take the anger out on your mate and painfully bite into her?!!! What the fuck?! That's not how you do that!!"

I start feeling a bit dizzy, my breath coming in gasps. Anna picks me up and places me on our bed, she looks at my neck. I whimper in fear and pain as she touches it. Her touch burns. I scream in pain.

"MINE."

He growls angrily at his mother who gasps.

"He..... Oh my god. This mark.... It hasn't been done in hundreds of years. It's....."

Remmys father growls at him, angry at what his son has done.

"You gave her a sacred mark?! You promised, Son. You know what that mark does!!! Her body cant handle it!"

"Actually.... I can. My mother is the goddess."

Anna looks at me and covers her mouth. Remmy is still growling and fighting his father.

"FUCKING LET GO OF ME!"

"NO. REMINGTON. YOU NEED TO LEAVE. GO. COOL OFF."

He jumps out of the window and I start sobbing. His father looks at me apologetically. Mel hands me a set of clean clothes and with Anna's help they  get me into the bath, being careful of where they touch me. I'm sobbing uncontrollably. After about fifteen minutes in the water, I've calmed slightly.

"Mel..... What's a sacred mark?"

"Sweetie.....it basically makes it to where no one can even touch you but him. Hes bound your magic with his. Remmy has made it to where if you're touched, it's painful, especially on your mark. Hes sealed your bond further and..... I believe you're going to be able to shift soon ."

"I feel so weak..."

"Its an effect of the sacred bond he created. Callie.... Can I ask.... Who raped you?"

"Ian. He calls himself Alpha of the Rogues."

Mel growls and helps me from the tub. I know shes mad. But not at me. At Ian. A wave of sadness crashes through me, my heart clenching with pain. I start sobbing again. He was so mad when I told him. Mel and Anna had left me alone. I stand in front of the mirror, staring at the new mark Remmy had just left. It's actually interesting. Along with his teeth marks, there is an intricate design woven amongst them. Touching it made me ache for Remmy even more. Grabbing his shirt, I slip it on and crawl into the bed. Sobbing I curl into a ball.

Hiya!!! I'm serefina! I'm your wolf!!

My wolf?

Yepp. Remmy activated me. We're special. We're called a white wolf. Which is why your hair is white and your eyes are blue. He'll be back. Don't worry, I talked with Xander. They're both very sorry. Rest.

I sniffled and wiped my face. I would relax but I would not sleep until my mate got back.

Rem?

I tried using the mind link that the sacred mark had created.

Remmy, please.... Come home..... I'm afraid.....

Nothing. I cried harder. He was ignoring me. I don't know how long I laid in bed sobbing. I didn't hear our door open at all.

"Love..."

I heard Remmy whisper as he closed the door. I sat up and cried harder.

"Oh...love.... I'm.... I... I'm so sorry. I couldn't control Xander when I heard you say that. Baby... Please. Don't cry."

He gathered me in his arms, wiping away my tears. I clung to him, the sadness gone.
