Chapter 38

Ryan’s POV:

Ryan finished getting ready, he wore a black suit, he had his black silky hair combed back, a gun in his back. He placed a black cocktail dress for Beth to wear, and Abby had a long black dress that sparkled. Ryan wanted her married into Chester’s family, so she had to make an impression with them. He was going to be pissed if she messed this up tonight.

“Girls come down here please,” he called from the stairs.

Abby and Beth both walked slowly down the stairs, both hated Ryan for making them go to this party.

“You both look beautiful,” he said pulling Beth closer to him. “So, Abby you know your part, if you fuck this up your Europe trip is done got it.”

“Whatever,” she said rolling her eyes. “I already know you’re going to cancel it, but yes I’ll play nice for you.”

“Good, now Beth all you have to do is smile and play my wife,” he said walking towards the door. “I got us a limo tonight, we are going to have fun, and when we get home, I expect you to be willing to give me what I desire.”

“I doubt it,” Beth said.

Ryan growled. “You know it’ll happen regardless.”

“Why don’t you just leave her alone, go and pay for a hooker,” Abby growled.

“Mind your business, Abby,” Ryan growled. “Get in the limo before I take my belt off and give you a good spanking.”

They were on their way to the party, Abby looked out the window, Ryan couldn’t keep his hands off Beth. Beth tried maintaining herself, but she was getting tired of being touched.

“Keep your hands to yourself!” she growled.

“But you’re mine, and I love touching you,” he said kissing her mark. “Besides I want you horny.”

“Not happening,” she said pushing him away. “I told you my mate is Bobby; I love him and only him.”

“He’s going to be dead soon, so you better break your heart now and get it over with.”

“What are you going to do if my dad comes at you and kills you first?” Abby snapped. “I hope he does because then all this talking will be over.”

“Abby I’m going to tell you one last time, and the next time you are going to get a beating you’ll never forget,” he growled. “Your father abandoned you, he wasn’t even here for you. He wants Beth and only her. The day in the city when you were alone, and he found you he was going to take you to use you to get Beth back.”

“That’s” Beth.

“Quiet!” Ryan growled.

“So, I’ll let your dad have you, but he isn’t going to give you what you want. He’s going to treat you like second-hand clothes and never love you as I have,” he snapped.

Abby had tears in her eyes, she wasn’t sure what to believe. She wanted to hear that from her dad if that was true. She didn’t want to believe it, but Ryan kept saying it. Maybe he wasn’t lying, and he was here for Beth only.

“Finally,” Abby said when she noticed they were at the party.

“I mean Abby doesn’t fuck this up,” Ryan growled getting out of the car. He wrapped his arm around Beth, Abby walked on his other side her arm wrapped around his. “Good girl now keeps this up and I’ll give you what you want.”

She didn’t say anything, she waved to a few of her friends, they were with their families she would meet up with them later.

“Sit here, I’m going to grab some drinks, don’t move alright,” he said looking at the two girls. “

Marcos, Seth, Johnny, and Daniel were standing guard. So even if they wanted to get up and leave, they wouldn’t get far.

“So how many of these parties have you been to?” Beth asked Abby.

“More than a hundred at least, it’s mostly Ryan doing the talking. I am usually hanging out with the Mafia kids, but I doubt Ryan is going to let me go anywhere,” she said rolling her eyes. “Especially with these bone heads following me around, they are a real buzz killer. Babysitter’s suck.”

“I heard that,” Marcos said. “I told you Ryan was on the warpath, and you just wanted to go and get yourself caught in it.”

“Well, you could have done some kind of favor for me, you always had my back, why didn’t you have it now?”

“Because Abby he can’t always take your punishment away from you,” Ryan said coming with a can of soda. “Here food is coming soon. “Beth here’s a drink for you, get you to relax a little this party is supposed to be fun.”

“I’m not getting drunk,” she growled.

“No one asked you to, but you can have one drink, at least,” he said sitting down. “Go check the grounds,” he said to the security guards.

“Are you expecting Bobby to crash the party?”

“You can never be too sure,” Ryan said downing the two shots the waitress brought over to him. “Besides I know he knows I’m bringing you two with me. After Abby’s stunt, he’s going to try anything to catch me off guard. But good thing I am prepared.”

“Ryan!” a lady’s voice called.

“Sasha!” Ryan said getting to his feet. “What a lovely surprise! I thought you hated these things?”

“I do, but you know Neko got me to come to this one, he said it would be fun, he says I am too depressed sitting in the house doing my chores all the time,” she said looking at Beth and then Abby.

“Who’s the lovely woman?” Sasha said looking at Beth.

“This is my wife Beth,” Ryan said smiling. “We recently found each other.”

“Nice to meet you, Beth.”

Beth nodded her head, she wanted to get up and run to the bathroom to cry. She didn’t want to play the part where she was his fake while.

“So, you going to come over and talk with Neko and the boys, or you going to sulk here with your wife and daughter?” she said glancing at Abby. “I’ll hang with the girls if you want me to or let them mingle with the ladies. They look bored.”

“I will get around, we’re waiting to eat, once the girls are fed, we’ll get up and stretch our legs and stuff,” he said kissing her on her cheek. “Tell Meko I’ll be around in a bit,” he said sitting down.

“So, when I’m done eating, I have some business to attend to, Beth you and your security will come with me, Abby you know what you have to do. You are going to be married off to Joe’s son, so you better go and hang out with them and your friends.”

Abby didn’t say anything she was looking forward to being away from Ryan, she wanted to get away from him. With it being dark outside she would have a better chance of escaping, but she would also be putting herself in a lot more dangerous because the creeps are out.

“I need to use the bathroom,” Beth said looking at Ryan.”

“Marcos go with her,” Ryan snapped.

Beth rolled her eyes, she walked with Marco to the bathroom, he waited outside she was the only one in there. She tried to keep herself calm. She knew if she was caught crying Ryan would not be happy. She went to the sink and washed her hands, she looked at herself in the mirror, she didn’t even know herself anymore. Ryan’s mark was still red, it was pretty, but she hated it.

“So, you are Bobby’s girl?”

Beth looked up it was Sasha. “Shush my security is outside, but yes,” she said turning on the water.

“Why does Ryan have you, Bobby was vague on your situation.”

“I am forced to be with him right now, I have no idea what Bobby is doing,” she said trying to control her tears. “Both Abby and I are hostages to him.”

“Little Abby, that is Bobby's biological daughter? Yours?”

“No,” she said shaking her head.

“Hurry up in there! Ryan is getting impatient!” Marcos yelled into the bathroom.

“Werewolves only have children with their mates, so are you a second chance mate?”

“I don’t think so, I’ve never had a mate, Bobby is my first and only one.”

“Beth what are you going?” Ryan growled. “Sorry Sasha her food is getting cold, and I know people are waiting for me, I’ll bring her around and you can talk then,” he said pulling her away from Sasha.

“What were you two talking about?” Ryan snapped.

“Nothing,” Beth said. “Stop you’re hurting me.”

“You tell anyone else about Bobby and us, I will put a fucking bullet in your head got it cupcake, now go and sit down,” he snapped. “Make sure they talk to no one,” he said leaving the table.

“Neko!” Ryan said hugging him. “How’s the family?”

“Good how are yours? I see you have a wife now. She’s a beauty. Abby is in trouble at school I hear. The girl has a crazy temper kind of like you huh?” he said punching him in the arm.

“Yeah, she’s my mate, finally snagged on.” Ryan laughed. “Abby’s rebellious, she’s driving me crazy!”

“Eh wait until she starts high school, and starts dating,” he said laughing.

“Oh, I already have her set to marry, so she isn’t allowed to date.”

“You have her set to marry someone, isn’t she only thirteen?” Sasha asked.

“Yes, but it’s an agreement, and they get along pretty well,” Ryan said. “A business agreement and trust fund have already been set up so.”

“But what if she finds her mate, you’re going to lose out big time there,” Neko said.

“I know, but she can be shared if needed,” Ryan said glancing at Abby who looked bored and wasn’t smiling, this was pissing him off. “I’ll be back in a little bit; seems my daughter needs to stretch her legs and I need another drink.”

Ryan walked over to the bar first and grabbed a couple of shots, he downed them before walking back to the table. “Is there a problem here ladies?” he said sitting down to finish his meal. “The food not good?”

“It’s fine Ryan,” Abby said looking down at her food that she’s hardly touched.

“Well, then you should be eating it rather than sitting here not eating and looking like you hate being here,” Ryan growled. “Beth eats something, you need to be happy you are here, I don’t want to bring you around the main man here, and you look like you hate me.”

“Well, I do hate you,” she snapped. “I don’t want to be here, and you need to realize that.”

“Well to fucking bad, I already told you I’ll fucking kill you and leave Bobby to mourn over you instead would you like that?”

“Do whatever you have to Ryan, I will rather be dead than with you,” she said getting up from the table and walking away from him. She knew she wouldn’t be able to go far. She walked over to the bar. “Two shots of your strongest stuff please.”

“Thought you weren’t going to get drunk?” Ryan said walking up to the bar. “Look I’m sorry, I’m stressed alright, and I don’t mean to take it out on you or Abby.”

“Whatever Ryan at the end of the day you know you are forcing me to stay by your side, even if I get away, you somehow manage to find me. The same goes for Abby, you should have let Abby have her, at least he’d be somewhat happy. Give her over, and I will submit to you,” she said turning to face him.

“Doesn’t work that way, Beth,” he spoke. “You both are mine. I raised Abby. I’m not about to let someone come and take her from me, and my wolf loves you, so you are staying by my side.”
