Chapter 29: Chapter 29

I ran as fast as I could back to the pack.

XANDER! I mind linked him.

What? What is it?

I need some female to come with me back to the pack house. Mia is in heat, but I don't think it is the normal kind.

Okay just keep going to the pack. Carrow is still there. Go find her and she will help. We are on our way.

I heard her whimpering in pain. Her body was shaking violently. I frowned. This is definitely not a normal heat. I could see the pack house in sight. It was definitely a sight for sore eyes. I ran inside and jumped four steps at a time. I bursted into my bedroom and laid her on my bed.

Have you guys even left yet? I heard Xander mind link me. I frowned at what he said?

What do you mean? Why would you think we haven't left the Hall?

Because all of the unmated males are going crazy.

How could they even smell her from that distance?

MIA

The muscles in my lower abdomen were clenching and then unclenching. I also felt my body get extremely hot. Sweat was pouring out of me. The heat just continued to increase. There was no such thing as relief. Many females go in waves of pain, but me? There are no waves of pain. I am in a constant state of extreme pain. My head began to thump hard from the blood pumping fast throughout my body. This was even worse than last time. The pain was so much that I started to feel nauseous. I saw Noah yelling out the door for someone, but I couldn't even comprehend what he was saying.

I sprinted to the bathroom, slid on my knees in front of the toilet and emptied the contents of my stomach. I felt tears run down my face.

"Make it stop." I whimpered. I felt big arms hold my underarms and lifted me up into a standing position, but I was so weak that my legs couldn't hold me. I collapsed against Noah, but he instantly caught me. He lightly carried me to the bed.

"W-why aren't you going crazy?" I groaned.

Noah's intense eyes found mine, "I don't know. You still smell the same to me, but all of the unmated males are going wild back at the hall."

I felt like my skin was crawling from the dress I was wearing. I needed to get it off. My skin was getting irritated. With shaking hands, I reached the back of my dress and attempted to zip it down. But I was so weak that I didn't even have a tight enough grip on it.

"Hey, I'll do it." I heard Noah said. He went behind me and zipped my dress down. I instantly dragged it down my body, leaving me in my strapless bra and panties. Noah's jaw clenched when he saw my body. He quickly walked to his closet and came out with one of his shirts in hand. He put it over my head and dragged it down my body. When I felt Noah's hand touch my skin as he pulled the t-shirt down, I actually felt relief. It made me frown for a moment when it dawned on me. The heat is a way of attracting males so than you can locate your mate, and then on the mate can release you from the pain.

I turned to Noah with tear filled eyes, "Please...y-you have to hold me." Noah didn't even hesitate. He crawled unto the bed and pull me against his body. I kept pushing myself deeper into him, but I still felt there was a thick boundary between us.

Noah sat up and took his dress shirt off, leaving his chest bare. He pulled me literally on top of him, so I was lying flat on my stomach. As soon as I felt his skin. I could feel the pain subside slightly. I took a deep breath of relief. I was so scared that I was going to be in pain for hours. I felt him rest his hand on my lower back below my three big claw marks, that rogue printed on my skin. It was now a puffy pink scar, it was still sensitive, but now where near what it was like before.

NOAH

She was in so much pain. I couldn't bare to see her like this anymore. I knew that I could fix it. I could do more than just touching. Right now, her body was still tense, but at least she stopped whimpering and groaning.

I rubbed her back slightly to get her attention, "Mia...I could fix this. I could take the pain away. Give me the word, and I will take your pain away." I knew what I was doing. Mating was the only answer to this problem.

I felt her shake her head, "No,"she whispered, "If I am going to ever mate with you Noah, it won't be because I am in pain and I need relief. I want my first time to be one of passion and romance."

I leaned my head against the wooden head board. I closed my eyes and clenched my chest in annoyance. I understood why she didn't want to, but she was in so much pain. I didn't know what else to do.

I felt something soft and wet drip unto my chest. I frowned and looked down. Mia was silent while her eyes were pouring with tears and yet she did not say a word or showed any sign of emotion. I shook her slightly. But she did not respond. "Mia?"

"I don't feel it anymore. I don't feel any pain." she whispered. I still didn't take it as a good sign. I raised my palm to her forehead. My eyes widen in panic. She was so hot!

I then heard her start to sob, "I hate this. I don't want to feel pain anymore." I quickly stood up from the bed with Mia in my arms.

I raced to the bathroom. I turned on the shower to the coldest it could go. I sat down in the shower stall with Mia in between my legs, leaning against my chest. Her body was still shaking a little. I saw her eyes's still leaking tears while her lip quivered violently. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her tighter against me.

"Sshhh...it's okay Mia. I'm here...I'm here, love."

MIA

The pain...it was getting too much. I looked up at Noah, "please Noah," I whispered, "Please kill me. I can't take it anymore. Death would be better than this. Please Noah, please." I begged him.

I could see it hurt him seeing me like this, but I couldn't help it. I have not felt pain this extreme before. I needed to think of something else. Something to get my mind off of the heat.

The suddenly a heard a deep and beautiful sound.

(A/N: Just saying that this is not his voice..it is just the son he is singing:)

Cover my eyes

Cover my Ears

Tell me These words are a lie..

It can't be true

That I'm losing you

The sun cannot fall from the sky

Can you hear heaven cry?

The tears of an angel....

My heart stopped beating at the realization that Noah was singing to me. He never sung, but he is...for me. I closed my eyes and snuggled deeper into his body. I laid my head on his chest and listened to deep rumbling bass as he sung. It was the most comforting thing I have ever felt. I never knew his voice was so amazing. It was deep raspy and, yet clear and controlled. It was just amazing. As I felt myself trying to hide myself within Noah, I felt him tighten his arms around me. I slowly forgot about the pain as I slipped into a peaceful darkness.

NOAH

When Mia was finally asleep, I dried her off and put a new t-shirt on her. I laid her in her bed and pulled the covers over her. She was still pale. I rubbed my thumb over her cheek, looking at her face. I frowned. I hate that she was in so much. I hate I couldn't do anything about it.

Right then, the bedroom door opened and Carrow came in. I rolled my eyes. "Wow you're just on time." I said sarcastically.

She scowled at me, "I didn't come on purpose."

"What?" I exclaimed, "You let her feel of that pain on purpose." I stood from the bed and faced her, "How could you do that when you knew she needed your help? What kind of a witch are you?" I snarled.

She walked by me, not even acknowledging my complaint. I growled. I hate it when she does that.

She sat next to Mia's sleeping form and pulled the blanket a little high to make her more comfortable. She stroked her hair gently before pulling something out of her pocket. It was a tiny crystalized bottle. She opened Mia's mouth a little and sent tiny drops in. I'm assuming it was a serum to prolong her sleeping state.

"Mia's heat is different from the other females." She stated.

I went and sat on a chair and listened.

"Her ancestors were the first ordinary wolves to be mated to a male lycan. There was once a woman called Nova Wallflower. She was a healer. She was in the woods trying to find a rare herb called Athalas. It was a rare natural antibiotic that she wanted in her collection. But what she didn't know was that she had stepped foot into a dangerous area. No woman should go there alone. She was ambushed by five male wolves all with impure intentions to ravage her. They held her down, but all stilled when they heard a very dark and echoing growl. The growl of a wolf...a lycan wolf. He appeared out of the bush. He was a very big and intimidating man. His name was Killian."

My eyes widen, "Killian? You mean my-"

"Your ancestor...yes. He killed the five male wolves and saved Nova. As soon as they touched they both knew. They were mates. He did not understand because there was no such thing for a lycan to be mated with an ordinary wolf. Lycans can only mate lycans because their body's are compatible. But because their belief in the moon goddess's plan, they never questioned it and they embraced the mating bond. They did not mate straight away because Nova was still shaken from the attack. However this triggered a heat that is so powerful."

"Why?" I asked.

"Because she is mated to a Lycan. Her heat was amplified because Killian was a powerful male. Her heat was designed to draw in Lycans. And therefore draw in her mate."

"But when Mia was in heat I couldn't smell anything different about her."

Carrowed chuckled, "Because her Lycan heat was not designed for her scent to draw in her mate. It was made to draw in other males so than her mate would have to guard her and protect her. Males would come from near and far to find her. But Killian's Lycan within him took control. He let his beast out in order to protect his mate. He would guard her without fail day and night until her heat was over."

I frowned in confusion, "But then how would that force them to mate?"

Carrow's eyes softened, "Lycan males are not emotional at all. But when someone they care about is in harm, it triggers an emotion. A connecting emotion between two mates. That emotion drew him closer to Nova and so they mated."

"So, the heat is not a scent for Male Lycan mates. The heat triggers emotion that starts the mating process?"

She nodded her head, "Yes. That is why her heat is so intense and painful. The longer she waits the more painful it will be. This has been every female in her bloodline. All females in her bloodline was destined for a lycan male, but many do not find them because they have become rare. So they settle for their ordinary male mates. You are the last Lycan Male Noah. And she is the last female to be destined with one. Do not deny the bond any longer."

I looked down at my hands and sigh, "I do not want to deny it anymore. It's her. She is indecisive because of the fact that I am engaged."

Carrow nods her head in understanding, "I understand. Let her make her decision. And you will have to accept whatever she wants."

I just listened silently. I made no move to respond, but she knew I was paying attention. Carrow stood up and walked to me, she squeezed my shoulder before walking out, but she turned and said, "She is still in her heat Noah. Once she wakes...she will be in more pain than before. Be prepared. " Then she leaves.

I stood up and ran towards Carrow, "Wait!"

She looks over her shoulder.

I stand there silently for a moment. Contemplating whether this was a good idea or not. But I knew if I didn't I wouldn't be able to have the full strength to protect Mia. I close my eyes and snarled to myself. I didn't want to though. It was his fault that I was tortured for six years. He is a problem. But then if I don't there could be a chance for Mia to be hurt. I opened my eyes and made my decision. I won't let them touch her.

"They are coming aren't they." I said, "They will be here to try and take her."

Carrow nodded her head.

I took a step forward, "Then I need you to undo the spell."

She frowned, "What spell?"

"The spell you did to me when I was a boy,"I took a step forward and whispered, "I need you to set the beast free."

Carrow's smiled with her eyes filled with pride...and aggression.
