Chapter 23. What will he say?

So I just realized that ...

In the beginning Connor's old name was Carson . . So I'm so sorry and I apologize but I'm sticking with Connor!!!!

Okay. 

I'm so happy that you guys comment!! It was so nice to see how you guys feel. I'm so excited. I'm almost at 1k votes on this story and it's doing so good and it wouldn't be without you guys that I was able to do this.

Today I got my new classes and I love them except one. I'm a freshy and I have Honors English, Health/Creative Writing, Geomatry (EW I HATE IT) and then this college prep called AVID, ugh so much work.

ANYWHORE...............

All around me it felt fuzzy, and kind of empty. I forced my eyes open to welcome nothing but blackness around me. It felt like there was a spotlight on me and in front of me it was all black. I wasn't scared, I'm a famous rogue. Nightmares don't scare me. 

I forced myself to take a hesitant step forward, but ended up getting jerked back. I looked down in confusion to see my bare foot stuck to a chain. When did that get there? And what am I wearing?

I suddenly looked down to see a short white flowy dress that went a little above my knees. My hair was neatly brushed down the side of my back in a neat fashion. I shrugged, eh well. 

I looked harder in the dark. 

"Rav . ." Someone faintly whispered. I squinted my eyes and looked all around me but I saw nothing.

"Raven..." Someone said again, a little bit louder. I looked down at the chain and yanked my foot, but it didn't prove to do any help.

"Who the hell are you?!" I shouted in a desperate scream.

"You. . . me." they replied. I growled, frustrated by the fact that I had no clue what was happening right now.

"Find me..." I faintly heard in a deeper voice, clearly not belonging to a woman. My hands viciously clawed through the air as I tried to make out the familiar voice.

"W-wait!!" I shouted and tugged harder at the chain on the ground, letting out a snarl of annoyance.

"Raven? Is she awake?" Someone asked in a much clearer voice. I felt the world around me start to brighten uncontrollably.

"No! Wait!" I screamed as I tried to remain in the darkness. But to no avail, it became too light.

...

I forced my eyes to slowly open, allowing even more intense brightness to come in tact with my eyes. I squeezed my eyes shut, partly hoping my dream would come and swallow me right up again.

"Raven...?" Someone asked. The sound of such a familiar voice made my heart break into thousands of pieces. I felt my misery in Tyler and I's bond get a major surge of power, and it honestly made me want to kiss him a trillion times. At the sound of my name rolling off my mate's tongue, pleasurable shivers exploded throughout my whole body. 

By then, I pried my eyes open with force. I could now see the people in front of me. There was a woman with red hair and a name tag that read, "Ez." To my left, there was that shaggy haired blonde boy I knew as Connor. His eyes lit up with relief after mine locked to his. 

Then, regrettably, I turned my attention to Tyler. He didn't look much better than I did. He had a stubble on his chin, large bags under his eyes and his hair was incredibly dull. It looked like he hadn't had much sleep in ages. It hurt my heart because I knew this was all my fault. I had no one to blame but myself.

His eyes searched mine and they held no emotion. Even his once baby blue eyes were now a dull and pale grey. Just the scent of him was making electric currents ripple throughout my being. 

I swallowed uncomfortably. Who was going to speak first?

"I'll give you guys a minute." Connor said, finally breaking the ice.

I forced my eyes away from Tyler to glance at my best friend. He had a small smile on his face and I could tell he was trying his best to make me feel better. I smiled at him and gave him the ok. He turned his back and walked towards the door along with the doctor woman following behind.

As soon as the door was closed, I kind of felt nervous. Now it was just me and Tyler.

He took a breath to speak, but I cut him off.

"This." I stated. He eyes searched mine in confusion.

"What?" He asked in a raspy voice, somewhat similar to mind. I cleared my throat.

"This . . . this is why I don't want a mate." I said as I stared at the foot of my bed. Tyler sucked in a sharp breath at my small words. 

"Raven . . . I . . ." He trailed off, looking at the ground and shuffling his feet uncomfortably.

"You don't even need to say it." I said with a humorless chuckle. "So, I'll do it for you." I replied with the crack of my voice. Immediately, Tyler's eyes snapped up to look at mine. I felt my wolf howl in pain. But I had to do this. It was for the better.

"I, Raven Dark, reject you, Ty-" But before I could finish, something soft, warm and inviting was placed on my lips. It took me by surprise at first, but then my lips folded perfectly in Tyler's. I closed my eyes, craving more of his touch. I was still weak so after a second, my breathing became uneven. Tyler released the lip lock, earning a whine from my wolf.

He stared intensely at me with black swirling at his eyes.

"Don't you fucking say it Raven." He said in a low voice, and I could tell he was fighting with his wolf for control. I found myself arching my back at his low words.

"But-"

"But nothing. I've been a complete asshole to you. You're my mate Raven. Everything you ever did was in the past, and everyone has a past. I've never met anyone like you. You're the most stubborn, hard-headed and most amazing girl I've ever met. I am so sorry I was so selfish and I did this to you. Having you for a mate? I wouldn't have it any other way. You're past doesn't decide who you are. Whether it's dark, or light you're mine. Mine to protect. Mine to hold. I know I've made mistakes Raven, hell I've made so many bad ones when it comes to you. But if you could give me a chance...I could be that mate and be there for you. Protect you, hold you, love you and fight by your side."

At his words, my eyes watered. Did Tyler really feel this for me? I felt my heart burst at his words.

"Tyler..." I whispered. His deperate eyes soon found mine.

"I want you to mark me as yours." I said as red took over my cheeks. At those words, I could see his fangs elongate. His eyes became a dark swirl and soon there was no blue left in his delicate orbs.

"You know I want to Raven . . . so badly you'll never know . . but you're not in any condition." He replied with a husky voice.

"Condition?" I asked him.

"When I mark you, it'll hurt a little bit at first, but afterwards, you'll love it. It's all a lot for your body to go through." He explained. I sighed in annoyance. Of course this would happen!! I ask the damn boy to mark me and guess what . . . he can't!!

"I want to so badly love, so don't take it the wrong way. But I don't think either of us is in the right condition. And I'm so sorry that you-"

"Tyler it's fine. I want you. No more strings attached. You, you and only you." I told him, although something like that had me hard to admit. I wasn't one for gushy love love. This was a new door for me and it felt odd and foreign. Loving someone and giving them my heart? It was a risk. But Tyler will be worth that risk.

"You'll give me another chance? Even after how much I fucked up?" He asked as his deperate eyes scanned over me and then to the floor in shame.

"Everyone messes up Tyler. I think we both know that more than anyone here."

"Speaking of everyone here...accepting me means that you're accepting your position as Luna. And if you're going to be luna, I need to introduce you to the whole pack. Formally." He added. I gulped. It was a big responsibility, but I had to try. I had to.

"I am aware. When can we meet them?" I asked him. I saw a smile light up on my mate's handsome face. 

"In a week. You'll be feeling better and we'll both be in our normal conditions." He said as he placed a feather light kiss on my forehead.

"Get a little more rest, ok love?" He asked. Love? I blushed a tad at the nickname. I'm glad it wasn't "pookie, cupcake" or something utterly ridiculous that humans called each other.

"I'm not.." I trailed off as a yawn surged through me. HOW TYPICAL!

"Tired?" Tyler retorted with a smirk. One that was incredibly mouthwatering might I add. Tyler turned to head out the door, but the pathetic side of me couldn't let that happen. I had been away from my Tyler for too long.

"Tyler!" I yelped. He turned in shock.

"Stay . . . " I whispered as I made my eyes travel around the room. I could feel heat sizzling on my cheeks. Great. 

"Is my famous rogue mate asking me to stay with her??" Tyler asked in mock with a small smile.

"Yeah yeah get your ass over here." I groaned. He let out a chuckle and slowly waltzed towards. He sat on the cot with me and soon laid down. He grasped my small hand in his before we turned into the spooning position. 

And lemme just say...

I've never slept better in my whole entire life.

Lots of loves!
