Ripped Away And Apart

Kafli 23.

The next day I just follow him to the airport, into the plane and again into the car. On the way to his house I think about my family and what they would say if they knew what I knew. I look at Max, the man I have been going back and forth on again and again, this man is a killer. 

“What?” he asks but I just look again out the window. 

How can I live with myself knowing this? Has he killed women? Men? Children? How many people has he killed? one? Ten? Hundred? I wish I could talk to somebody about this but then again why would I want to talk to somebody about this? I have been biting my lips so much that they are all broken and bleeding now so when I lick them they sting. My body feels weird and it has been weird since Max bit me on my shoulder but I don't mention it. When we finally after a very long car drive arrive at the house, I notice a lot of people are standing in front of the house. I hear Max sigh very heavily but then he parks the car. We get out of the car, I walk beside Max but I don't touch him and he does not try to touch me. 

“Alpha Ian” Max says very deep and powerful.

“Alpha Max” he answers. 

Max crosses his arms over his chest and I step a little behind him because I have no idea if he is friend or a foe. 

“Why are you here?” Max asks. 

I look at Ian, he is blonde but tall, he is strong but not close to Max, he looks like a model more than a werewolf. He smiles a little to one side and rubs his chin. 

“I heard that you have a little problem with your mate” 

Max growls a little and Ian looks at him, a smile fading a little. 

“So of course you knowing my mate she insisted we came here and maybe see if we can help” 

I somehow feel Max relax a little but I get mad, the f**k does he think he is? Help handle me? What the f**k? I am not someone Max needs help with! If he wants to get closer to me and make things better than he should not KILL PEOPLE! Ian looks behind Max, at me and as soon as his eyes land on me, his smile gets big again. 

“Ginny will like you” 

I raise an eyebrow to him and cross my arms over my chest. He lets out a little laugh that makes me more angry. 

“Alright, everything is ready in the kitchen, when are they arriving?” 

I look at the stunning girl walking out of the front door, rubbing her hands on her blue jeans. She is also blonde but she has long wavy hair, she has a baby face that is very beautiful at the same time. She is about the same height as me but she looks stronger and in more shape but curvy. She stops and looks at us a little startled but then she smiles, what is with these two and looking so damn happy? I want to punch that smile off their face. 

“You are already here? Hi Alpha Max” she says in her sweet happy voice. 

He does not say hi back he just nods his head, she bends a little to the side looking at me but I just narrow my eyes at her. 

“Well everything is ready in the kitchen for lunch so everybody inside” she says waving her hands around and turning to walk inside.

Alpha Ian or Ian runs after her and hugs her from behind giving her loving kisses and she giggled. We walk after then still not touching and I am grateful to him from respecting that I need a little space right now, and if I am being honest I need a break. I am very sore after those days and I am just trying not to walk funny. We walk into the house and right away I smell pancakes and my stomach growls. We walk to the table but while everyone sat down I walked to make a smoothie. 

“We have fruits here” Ginny says from the table. 

I shot her a look like no f*****g s**t but I don't answer her. I get all of the things to the blender but before I could start to make it Max comes. He brings a cutting board and a knife, he then nods his head to me to sit down but I just pop my hip out like telling him to let me do this. He just looks at me holding the knife and I sigh, I am not in the mood to fight him in front of people so I walk to the table sitting down. 

“Did you guys really talk just by looking at each other?” Ian says laughing. 

I just ignore him sitting in my chair, there is silence while Max makes my smoothie then he brings it to the table in a very large glass.

“Alright let's dig in and maybe this awkward silence will break” Ginny says while putting a pancake on her plate. 

“Well bunny, Max has never been a big talker” Ian says from her side. 

Max is sitting at the head of the table to his right is me, to his left opposite of me is Ian and then to his side is Ginny. We all put things on our plates but before I could get the first bite in my mouth, Ginny moves to the side and feeds Ian from her plate then he does the same. What the hell are they doing? I look at Max but he is just eating his lunch and looking at me. I move my eyes to ask him what the f**k and he just shrugs his shoulders but I find this very weird. They eat everything off each other's plate and I am still just shocked why they would feed each other their breakfast? I understand strawberries and candy in the bedroom but at the table? That is weird. 

“So Ana now that you know everything how are you feeling?” Ginny asks. 

I look up from my plate at her and I narrow my eyes, does she really expect me to open up to her? I just met her. 

“Like I am supposed to be fated to spend my life with a murderer” I say dryly. 

Both Ginny and Ian look a little shocked by my answer but I just look away from them but I see out of the corner of my eye that Max moved a little in his seat. 

“Okey I am sensing a lot of anger so I guess we have to do this another way” Ginny says while putting her napkin down on the table. 

I don't answer her but I watch her, she stands up, she gives Ian a kiss and then she walks around the table stretching her arms. Then when she finally reaches me, she smiles but then she ripped my arm so I stand up but then she starts to drag me outside. I struggle against her hold but she is strong, I hear Max growl and I hear something break. When we get outside, people stop what they are doing and look at us but I just roll my eyes. She walks with me to the training area, what the f**k does she think she is doing? What the f**k is going on?

“Ginny don't you dare hurt her, remember you are still on my territory” Max warns. 

I look at him but Ian is standing in front of him holding him back. 

“What the hell is going on?” 

I see Noah come running in just shorts all sweaty and I want to go to him but a split second later I remember! He is a killer too! Then I feel Ginny let me go and I look at her but just in time I bend forward avoiding her punch. 

“Good! Now fight me! Let out your anger and feelings” Ginny screams at me and kicks towards my side but I step out of the way. 

“f**k you! I am not fighting you!” I snap at her. 

“She talks!”

Another punch but again I just avoid it, I grew up with only boys and a very protective father so I know how to fight. I know MMA, I know boxing and I know how to defend myself but I just did not do it against Max’s father because I knew I could not win but looking at her I know I can win. However though, I am not a violent person so I will not take part in this! I am not going to fight her! She keeps coming at me but I just dance around her, she has too many openings! 

“Fight back Ana!” Ginny screams. 

“NO!” 

Kick, punch, kick, kick, punch and so on and so on. 

“Fight back Ana” Noah screams at me. 

I stop and look at him, I get ready to snap at him but then I get a punch in my face and I fall to the ground. I hear Max growl very loudly and I see many people take a step forward but I just rub my face a little. 

“I am not fighting you Ginny” I say from the ground. 

I stand up and take my stance again, I am not fighting her because I have no reason to! I don't know her. 

“I am a killer too Ana, I have killed rouges too” she says in a very calm voice. 

That made me angry, what the f**k is she doing? Why would she just say that like that? She is so calm and I can not hear remorse in her voice. I look around and people are just as calm about this and I feel anger burning inside me. 

“Ana, calm down” Max says from the other side. 

I look at him but looking at him made me calm down a little but then I see her attack but this time I don't avoid her attack. I grab her flying arm and move to the side pulling her forward and then bringing her arm behind her back.
