A loud scream, one filled with fear, instantly woke Cian. He was an Alpha, he was supposed to protect others from danger. The loud scream continued. It was only then that Cian realized he was in wolf form. He hadn't morphed into a wolf while sleeping since he was a teenager, all those centuries ago. Cian quickly turned back into a man.
"What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck?" Wren kept yelling in panic. She bolted towards the door. Cian couldn't bear the thought of his beloved leaving him. He was faster. He blocked the door.
"What the fuck? Let me out of here NOW!"" demanded Wren.
"Calm down, calm down. I'm not going to let you out of here until I've explained everything." said Cian. He remained in front of the door though, sure that Wren would bolt. It hurt him to see his love's eyes so full of terror. Wren had never looked at Layton like that and he had beat her up.
"Don't hurt me, Cian. Please let me go? I'll go back to the trailer park and leave you alone...forever." begged Wren desperation was in her voice.
"I'm NOT going to let you go Wren...not till I've explained everything." repeated Cian. His words came out harsher than he expected. Tears were starting to fill Wren's eyes now. He wanted nothing more than to calm her.
Cian realized that Wren was only a mortal and this was alot for her to handle. He was expecting alot of her. His human side took over and he became more gentle. "I promise I won't hurt you, Wren. You have my word...as an Alpha and as a gentleman. I won't hurt you. Please just sit down and listen. I'll explain everything. Sit....please." Cian begged as he gestured to the bed.
Wren looked at him dubiously. People with power always abused it. Still, just hours ago he'd been so tender, so loving.
