Chapter 46: Pain And Promises

Matteo's POV

"What the hell are you doing here?" she snarl at me.

I know she hated me right now but I have to make things right this instant.

Yes I have been hiding from my father and last week I have been in hell and thought of truly giving
myself to Addasah.

The past weeks made me re thinks about a lot of things especially my decisions. It even makes me
realise that I am falling for her too and I want this to work between us.

I miss her and I damn well regret what I did.

I couldn't sleep for eight days thinking about Addasah and me.2

Aaron has been helping me out a lot he has been giving me advice about the essence of having your
true mate besides you. He even scolded me for doing that to her, the granddaughter of nana Gloria
who has been helping us out a lot.

So Jay never calls me not until today and told me that he heard Addasah is leaving so without even
care of my father I came here.

I didn't care at all I just want to see her and tell her what I really feel. I sigh taking a step towards her

"Addasah"

"don't you dare say my name" she snarls at me.

"I know what I did is un-" I didn't get to finish as the next thing I know she SLAPS me really hard.1



"I deserve that" I say while trying to reach for her but she pushes away my hand and slaps me on the
other cheek.

"How dare you show your face to me now" slaps, then she began to hit me everywhere and I stood
there not doing anything.

I know she hates me and that is why she is doing this. She pushes me then began to scratch and claw
at my skin but I did not care.

It hurts, Thunder now was growling mad for what she's doing but I shut him off completely. I just want
her to hear me out and Thunder won't destroy this opportunity for us.

Blood began to oozes out of my skin.

"Addasah" I force her to stop before I took her hands laying it upon my heart.

I felt her claws digging in my skin, as it reached for my heart. I wince a little but I pretend not to be
phase by it. At this point I don't care whether she kills me or not because I deserve it.2

Her hand slowly made it's way into my skin. She's reaching for my heart, my breath hitch still I try my
best to remain emotionless.

Thunder was trying so hard to break down my walls but I knew that if I let him out he's going to
punished and mark her right here.

Her palms now reaches my heart, her hands touches it and I felt it beat slowly. Here I was going to die
by her hands. If I didn't have any Alpha blood I'm sure I won't be able to live any longer.

My breath slow down I smile looking at her as her eyes were focus on her hand as it disappeared in my
skin.



My body was weak but I reach out for her just this one last time. I caress her cheek feeling those
sparks again.

Closing my eyes about to fall down and die Addasah pull back her hands then fell down on her knees
crying.

She looks at the blood in her hands while sobbing.

I drop down on my knees before her feeling weak. If I was a human I would be dead by then, there's a
hole on my left chest I probably need stitches but I know only my mate can heal this open wound but
I'm not going to beg to be save.

I felt her hands around my shoulder embracing me. Then she put her head to the open cut and slowly
my skin began to heal back together.

She was sobbing in my chest uncontrollably. My tears now wet her hair. I pull her back once I had my
strength back. Wiping off her tears I caress her cheek gently.

"Addasah, I'm sorry" I cry

"I am so sorry and it's okay if you don't trust, forgive or believe me right now."

I cup her face in my hands "look at me Addasah" she close her eyes tightly refusing to look at me.

"Addasah please" I beg her and waited until she finally open up those beautiful sapphire eyes of hers.

"I know you're leaving for uni and you may not believe this but please I want to promise you something"

I move closer to her our face inches from one another letting her hand falls on my beaten heart

"I promise you under the moon goddess witness that I Matteo Evan Reed will wait for you. I promise
when you come back I'll be the better mate for you. I'll make you my luna and try my hardest to be the



best man you wanted and deserve to have."5

This time my forehead is against hers and I nuzzle my nose against hers. I pull out a ring from my
pocket, it's one of my grandma's ring and I wanted to give it to her as a symbol of my promise and a
token of my heart.

"I'm sorry for everything and I promise to be that mate and man for you" she sobs out loud.

"Addasah, this is my promise ring it belongs to my grandma and I promise with this ring on my
grandmother's soul and my for fathers grave that I would standby my words I vow to you before"4

She keeps on sobbing trying to pull away but I pull her to my chest hugging her tightly never even want
to let go or this moment to be a dream.

Sometime afterwards I carry her back to her room, then went downstairs to clean my blood on the floor.

I came back and found her already shower and on bed. I made her lie down then pull a duvet over her.

I was to leave when she held back my hand "please sleep with me" and she pulls me down beside her.

I watches her until she fell asleep and I made my way out there afraid my father caught me.

Unfortunately, I came out of her house only to be surrounded by the Beta and my father's warrior.

"Seize him" I bare out my fang challenging them not to move any closer.

I was to jump attacking them but something stings my neck and I'm out as a feather.

I woke up again with a head ache, I take a look around and find myself in my father's room on a chair
and not in chain. I look in front of me and finds my father sitting there behind his desk with eyes
narrowing at me.



"We need to talk" finding my strength back I stood up "sorry Alpha but no" he glares at me

"Addasah and" I cut him off "if you are going to say I can't be with Addasah then you're wrong. I won't
stay away this time"

He growl at me slamming his fist on the desk.

"I want my mate, not Quinn so please just accept it because no matter what you do I'll run away" I said.

I wasn't joking when I came back here for Addasah I meant every word I say.

"You will not mate her" he is trying to control his breath, his hands clenching on each side of the desk.

"Matteo" his voice raised in hoarse tone "sit down" he order me using his Alpha side.

"If you still want to see her eyes open again then sit down and let's talk" he threatens me.

"You think that would stop me, you won't even kill her because you know I won't let you"

"Oh I will kill her and her parents if you think I'm bluffing don't test my limits Matteo. Now sit back down"
he order me again in his Alpha tone.

My body tries to fight against it yet it was force to submit and I ended up losing it.

I sat in front of him he took a whisky then sit back behind his desk.+

"We have a lot to talk about. Shall we start?"
