Rejecting, Your Broken Promises
Chapter 115

Dawson’s POV

B***d Rose Pack

This has been a horrible day. I am drained, and just want it to be over with, but I need to take care of Sloan. She barely touched dinner tonight, she can feel how upset I am through our bond. I never realized what she went through at Golden Moon. I could tell by both Rob and Gerald’s face’s that they weren’t aware of what had happened at their pack either. That is actually good for them because if they had, I would tear up the treaty and dissolve any other dealings between our packs. I would do that, and I would not feel a bit bad for doing it.

FLASHBACK

Peyton and Elena took Sloan up to our room to rest after we got Brandi’s memories checked. I sat in dad’s office with my parents, Heath, Vincent, Beth, Percy, King Sebastian, Alpha Gerald, and Rob. No one was speaking, we had all gone straight up to wait on the Council Members who were taking a fifteen-minute break after watching Brandi’s memories. The door opened and they entered the office, and they both looked drained. They came to stand next to my dad’s deck at the head of the room for the rest of us to see them.

Council Leader Anthony Miller cleared his throat and that started, “This was a first for us. Usually in an investigation, they admit what they did, and we can understand it through those means of us having seen it before, or having been at the scene itself and realizing what happened that way. This was quite a different experience, and it was much harder to see it “playing out” in front of us as it did. We saw Brandi’s memories and Brandi started “helping” her mother hurt Sloan when Sloan was 16, so most of Brandi’s memories of the abuse were from the last 4 years. We will know more when we speak to Luna Meghan, but Brandi’s memories were enough. The abuse started with them using belts and rods on Sloan. It is a miracle that she isn’t covered with scars, I don’t know why she is actually. Meghan was using Sloan to work her anger out and she has gotten progressively worse. Meghan has been using a whip that I have seen used to torture rogues with, on Sloan. It had about 8 strips of leather, with spade-shaped silver on the tips of them that seem to slice the flesh open in use. The points going out were what was catching the flesh so well. Sloan always complied with what was asked of her, even though she knew what was coming. She must have a very strong wolf, or something else was in play to keep her from having scars all over her, so was beaten very badly, numerous times. They would have her strip down to her underwear to do this, and they always made sure to hurt her as much as they could. From what it looks like in Brandi’s memories they would wait for Gerald and Rob to leave for some kind of Alpha training at another pack before doing this.”

“Why didn’t Brandi tell us? We would have stopped it and taken care of her” Gerald asked with tears running down his face for what Sloan had suffered.

“We could see in Brandi’s memories, we saw Meghan tell her several times that she would kill her if she told either one of you. Sloan believed her. I would too after seeing what a vicious person the Luna was to Sloan. The Luna covered all of her bases though. She would tell Sloan that you were aware of the abuse, and OK with it. For Meghan, it was physical and emotional abuse. For Brandi, it was in my opinion, actually worse with physical, emotional, and s****l abuse” Leader Miller said, and I couldn’t take it. I stood up so fast my chair slid back two feet.

“I will kill her, what did she do to my Sloan? Who did she allow to touch my mate?” I managed to get out, and I was barely in control of Steele right now, he wanted b***d, and he wanted this to be taken care of now.

“Brandi apparently had made her own key to Sloan’s room. We saw her on a little over 10 occasions bring her boyfriend, or date, as it was actually not the same man who entered the room with her. So it was 10 different men, a different one for each of these particular trips into Sloan’s room. She would have Sloan strip down to her underwear, and she would give Sloan a few strikes with the whip, usually 1 or 2, and then have the warrior hold Sloan into him as she punched her. Sloan’s arms were held down, so she couldn’t defend herself. She also said some disgusting things to her. I won’t mention them all, but it was basically always drilling into Sloan how worthless she was, that no one would care when she came up missing, how she controlled whether Sloan lived or died, as Meghan had wanted to kill Sloan on her 19th birthday, but Brandi talked her mom into not killing her, just yet. Brandi liked coming into Sloan’s room and…” Leader Miller stopped and looked to Council member Teresa Phillips for help on finishing this.

“Brandi likes to hurt Sloan, having the warrior hold her, allowing him to touch Sloan in an intimate way. Getting the warriors worked up and excited before they would have s*x with Brandi, in Sloan’s bed. Brandi would have Sloan tied to a chair near the bed to try to make her watch. Usually, Sloan just kept her eyes closed, but it was not a good situation for her to have been placed in. That type of abuse was, to me, the most disturbing to watch, to say the least, as we didn’t expect that to have happened. I felt terrible for Sloan, and it was what brought me to tears. For her to be locked in a room with someone who was a family member, she should have been able to trust and rely on them. It was appalling I can think of no other word than that. I am noting it as k********g, one for each count on Brandi since Sloan could not get away, and was held there against her will. I am also noting it as s****l abuse, for each and every time this happened to Sloan, as I believe that someone who is supposed to protect the pack should do just that. Not participate in deviant behavior. I can come to the pack to help you cull out the guilty parties. I cannot imagine the nightmare that this girl lived in your pack Alpha Gerald. I am glad that you were not aware of the problem, but there was no excuse, as far as I am concerned for Luna Meghan to have done all of this to Sloan, and you not know something about it. You are the Alpha, and I know that you are busy, but how is it possible that your own daughter was so badly abused right under your nose, and you didn’t know anything about it?” Council Member Phillips finished, and the words hung in the air.

I can’t even breathe right now I am so upset. I want to tear this whole office apart after hearing what that sick, jealous, b***h did to my Sloan. She cannot die soon enough, and I want to have a word with those warriors too. Even if Brandi told them that it was OK to do so, they should have known better. They were both the Alpha’s daughters, but they would have known that Brandi was the one in charge between the two of them, because of how Sloan had been treated in the pack. I am trying to control my breathing, I really am, but I feel like I need to tear something apart right now. I feel hands on my shoulders, and I can tell it is Heath, and Percy, trying to calm me down, but I really don’t want to calm down.

“We will get her avenged, Dawson. They will both die for what they have done to Sloan. Calm down, so we can finish this, and then you can go up to Sloan. You have to calm down, you cannot phase in the office. I can feel your anger, and rightly so. I will go with you to Golden Moon to help you there, as well. Those men need to be held accountable for their actions, they should have known better. We will all help you get this finished, for Sloan” Percy tells me. I am a little calmer, but only because I need to go and comfort my sweet mate, she needs me right now, so I tamper down my anger and returned to my seat. I glanced over at Rob and Gerald who were both sitting there stunned like someone had gutted them. I see tears in Rob’s eyes, and tears actually running down Gerald’s face. I am glad that they care, but why didn’t they do something to prevent all this from happening?

“It is all my fault. Meghan has not been the same since the attack that killed my father over 20 years ago. Losing her parents like that, she immediately placed the blame on both me and my mother. When Sloan was born, Meghan and I were so happy, and then when Sloan opened her eyes, it was like a switch was flipped. Meghan was so horrified to have given birth to a hybrid like it was the worst thing she had ever done. Sloan never chose to be a witch, she had no fault in it, but after that, Meghan drastically changed. Nothing made her happy, I finally talked her into having another child. Meghan was happier after Brandi was born, she was Meghan made over. Meghan loved and doted on Brandi. I just kept my head down as that was best to keep Meghan calm. I never thought that she would ever do something like this. My poor baby, I just tried to keep her safe as I knew my mother loved and cared for her. She was safe with Sera, much more so than she would have been living with us. I will take care of the warriors, they will all be banished from my pack. I have decided to go ahead and let Rob take over, and I will help him get the pack straight. Clearly, we need to make some sweeping changes in the pack. It will take time, but I will not allow what happened to Sloan to go unpunished. I would appreciate you coming to my pack to show me who the culprits were in this, for them to be punished properly. Since you saw it, you would know who were the worst of the offenders, and if Dawson wants to come to satisfy and work his anger out, I do not have a problem with that either. These men should have known better, despite what Brandi may have told them. They took advantage of the situation, and my daughter and I cannot allow that to go unpunished. I am sick just hearing about what happened” Gerald said.

“We will come and help you determine who the men are, I believe that they have earned punishment as well. There were a few who were clearly uncomfortable with touching Sloan at all, even at Brandi’s insistence. But there were three of them who clearly enjoyed it and took it much further than they should have. Luckily, Brandi is a very jealous girl and stopped them. So, there is something to be glad about” Council Member Phillips told the group.

“Yes, I would like to come as well and help you out in this,” I told them, and Gerald nodded at me. I can tell that he is torn up about this. I know that he did love Sloan, and just allowed his mother to care for her to protect her from Meghan. But his callose disregard of Sloan after Sera had died, his not checking up on her, asking if she was OK, are all still against him. I will not force Sloan to have a relationship with this man. It is up to her, and I will support her, either way, she feels about him. I will love and protect her until death takes me away from her. I cannot imagine my life without her in it.

FLASHBACK ENDS

I walk behind Sloan as she heads up the stairs to go to our room, as we left the cell area. I am quite sure that they got more information this time from viewing Luna Meghan’s memories, but I can’t take anymore today. I need some comfort, I know that Sloan does too, and I want to comfort Sloan. We head up in the elevator to our floor and head to our room. We are in comfortable silence, and I know she is ready for this day to be over with too. She heads to the bathroom, and I heard the shower start and that is my cue, I go ahead and quickly strip off, so I can just throw my clothes in the hamper and jump in there with her. She is not paying any attention to me right now, she is in a funk, and just not focused on anything else right now. I wait to hear the shower door open for Sloan to get in, and I head quickly into the bathroom. I toss my clothes into the hamper and as she tries to shut the glass door, she then realizes that I am here with her.

She gives me a little smile and I know that she is trying to tell me that she is OK, without saying it, but we both know that that isn’t true. She will be, today was just a little too much. I know that included in with the memories of all that she went through coming up, this was really hard on her. I also know that mom had spoken to Peyton about counseling, and they were both aware that Peyton had gone, but Sloan didn’t want to. She didn’t want to talk about anything she had experienced, and now we all know why. She will need it when she is ready, and I know that mom is on top of it to get it done. Mom had trauma too, and she knows that it does need to get dealt with, sooner, or later.

I pull her into me to hug her to me and pressed her head onto my chest so she could hear my heartbeat. This always helps to calm her down, and we stand like that for a minute before she lifts her head to look up at me and then gives me a k**s. I saw the tears in her eyes as she pulled my head down to her, and my heart breaks for her. For the girl who only wanted her parent’s love and approval and never got it. That is so hard, I would fix it for her if I could, and Meghan will never be a choice in it, she will have to pay for her crimes. But Gerald does want this to work out, so whatever I need to do to get that done, without pushing her too hard. I will get it done.

I felt it when her body loosened up and melded with mine. She is the perfect fit for me, and I smile as I continue to deepen the k**s. I can already feel my excitement growing, and she can feel it too, but I need to let this one be for her, to soothe and take care of her tonight. I can wait on anything else. I grab her loofah and body wash and gave her a smirk as I start washing her front, taking great care with her breasts, as she always thinks that I am “cute” when I do it and work my way down to her feet. I give her the turnaround motion, and she gives me a bigger smile as she does. I work my way back up her body, thanking the Goddess for my mate, again. She is perfect for me, she is feisty and sweet, smart and loving, the perfect foil to me and how I think. She gets me, sometimes I think even more than Percy does. I turn her towards the water to rinse her and then give her shoulder a k**s before I grab her shampoo to finish her shower. I love her hair, it is so black that it almost looks blue in some lighting. I love her eyes even more, but right now they are closed in contentment as my fingers rubbed her scalp, down to her neck, and back up again. I feel it when a small m**n of pleasure at my actions escapes her lips.

I am struggling to keep this about her when I am so painfully hard. I get her rinsed off, and put her conditioner in her hair, while I almost win an award for getting my body washed as quickly as I can. I feel like I won’t last at all because my c**k is so hard now, but I still try to push through this and focus on her. Sloan gives me a smile as she sees what is going on, and I feel her hand on me giving it a good pull and I almost came undone. I am still lathered up, and she is using the soap on my body to help me out. She can feel how painful it is to me and wants to help me with this. I closed my eyes and lean back, just feeling how good it feels for her hand to be pleasuring me. I feel her other hand start touching my balls, and they tighten up even more. She increases the speed on my c**k with her tugs and then reaches a little further back to stroke me right behind my balls, and I came undone with rope after rope coming out and I cried out with my release. I bring her to me and give her a passionate k**s, as I needed that. I needed her, and I cannot wait to go and finish this up in our bedroom. Sloan is my Queen, she is my joy, she is my everything. I cannot wait to see what our future holds for us, as I look forward to all of it. The good and the bad, because as long as she is with me, we can overcome anything.
