Chapter 6 No one owns me

"Mine!!!" As Carter yelled that, Roxy's eyes widened and she couldn't believe she heard that. If she had not had the memory she would be totally lost. Although she knew what that meant, it doesn't mean she wanted it too.

'Mate, Roxy, our mate' her wolf Sasha told her excitedly but Roxy just ignore her.

"What are you trying to say?" Roxy asked Carter.

"Mine, you are mine", Carter claimed while he looked at Roxy lovingly which she did not reciprocate.

"You just had your wolf?" Carter asked.

"No, I just talk to her. I did not shift yet." Roxy replied casually as Carter touched her face as his eyes dilated.

"Don't you dare what I think you're thinking." Roxy warned Carter. By the looks of it, Carter wants to kiss her which she didn't want.

But to Carter, Roxy smells so good that it made him lose his mind. He wanted to take Roxy home, that's what it was supposed to be whether she likes it or not. Lust filled him as he looked at Roxy with her lips twitched, as if telling him he can't have her.

"You don't have a say on this. You are mine and you can never change that." Carter said as he pulled Roxy at the back of her head and kissed her roughly.

Roxy's eyes widened and no matter how much she hated it, her wolf was absolutely taking a liking with their situation.

She tried pushing Carter away but he was so strong. Carter's hands were on her waist and lifted her up. She never met someone as strong as him, and without a warning, her hands had their own minds to wrap around Carter's neck as well as her legs around his waist.

As Carter's kisses became gentle, he licked Roxy's lips asking permission. As soon as Roxy opened her mouth, Carter's tongue invaded which made Roxy moan.

Lust filled Roxy's body and wanted Carter to go farther. She kissed Carter back and he moaned in pleasure too.

Carter never felt this wanton to any woman. He had thought that the feeling he was feeling before for Roxy was because she was his mate.

He suddenly felt the pressure in his mind which means someone was mind linking him which he wants to ignore but decided to entertain it still while kissing Roxy.

'Carter, do you want everyone to watch you doing that?' Nathan his future beta.

'Why do I need to meet her on the side of the road.' Carter complained to Nathan that made the latter laugh.

Carter blocked his link and stopped kissing Roxy but had no intention of letting her go. With his forehead on hers, "you are not getting away from me, you get that." he said condescendingly.

Because Roxy doesn't want to have her mate yet, "No, No one owns me." Roxy said and got down from Carter who was in shock.

Carter gets back to his senses and growls. "You're growling at me?" Roxy said angrily.

"Who wouldn't get angry if he heard his mate saying what you had just said." he answered angrily too.

"I am not Roxy, well this body is hers but it's just a body." Roxy said in a confusing way.

Carter could not understand what Roxy was saying but he still explained what mate bond is.

"No matter who you are, regardless of whose body is that or whose in that body, my wolf recognized you as ours and there's no way you can't deny that. Your response earlier with my kisses was evident proof."

"Whatever you say, and one more thing, I don't like kids." she said and left. Carter did not stop her and just watched her leave. He was getting curious with her. The way she talks is different from before. He doesn't want to entertain what she had just said but would not leave that information behind.

Nathan neared him looking at him worriedly and asked, "she doesn't like you?"

Carter looked at him "She doesn't like the mate itself. And there's something odd about her." he said with a grim face.

Nathan nodded at him in agreement. He noticed it too, the way Roxy talked to Tony earlier, it was not like her at all. Before she had been hospitalized, she was very timid and shy. She feared Tony, but now it looks like she feared no one. He looked at Carter who was fuming with rage, was now walking to their car and followed him.

"What are you going to do? Do you think, when she finds out that you are the royal prince she'll change her mind?" Nathan asked Carter unknowingly.

Nathan drove while Carter sat in the back seat. He was thinking about what Roxy had said. She clearly told him that it was Roxy's body, but inside was not. "Does she mean that someone was inhabiting Roxy's body?" he asked to himself.

"Let's go to the kingdom. I want to check on something." Carter commanded Nathan, "Yes your highness." Nathan answered.

***

As Roxy left Carter, she went straight to her home. She knew needs to train hard now that she had to fight Tony. She doesn't know what came to her that she challenged Tony, it was a good thing that she has Sasha now.

'Don't ever think that I'd help you,' Sasha told Roxy angrily. She was mad at what Roxy had done earlier. Sasha already likes Lexus but Roxy pushes Carter.

"Why are you getting mad at me? You know that I am not interested in this mate thing.' Roxy talked back angrily. She was happy for Roxy that she had her wolf now, though she was not able to be with her at least Sasha was in her body.

'There is something you don't understand, you and I are one. You cannot differentiate us. With regards to Roxy, I won't be able to show up if she was still in her body. She was too kind and weak to handle me.' Sasha said sadly.

'What do you mean?' Roxy asked curiously.

'No matter what, Roxy won't be able to live. If I manage to surface with her, she won't be able to take it and she will eventually die. I am a strong wolf that needs a strong-willed human counterpart, if the human was weak she would meet her demise.' Sasha explained in a low voice.

'I love Roxy, all the time I was with her, I pitied her but at the same time, I admire her for being a good human. I had never seen such a human before you know...' Sasha added in a soft voice.

'As for you, whether you like it or not, we are going to accept Carter as our mate. I am not going to allow you to disregard it.' Sasha told Roxy seriously.

'You wanted him to be our mate when you knew very well that he did nothing when Roxy was being bullied? Do you think Roxy would be able to accept that the man destined for her was the same man that told him that she was weak?' Roxy condemned Sasha.

'You knew very well that it does not necessarily mean that he had bullied Roxy, none of your memories show that he had wronged Roxy right?' Sasha defended.

'Not doing anything is the same as being one of them.'

'I am sure he had a reason.'

'Regardless!!' Roxy was getting impatient.

'You knew that we won't be able to stop the bond so you might accept it.' Sasha ended their discussion.

Roxy sighed and went to the bathroom. She decided to freshen up first before going to the basement where her mom's gym was.

Roxy started slow paced exercise she didn't want to give stress to her body that may ruin her health.

When she was on a mission, her speed and agility was her greatest strength and she intended to enhance it. Tony had his wolf already and he might be a lot faster than her, after all he was not human alone.

She was sweating hard already when her mom went to check on her. Amelie was shocked to see Roxy doing training. "Since when did my daughter learn how to fight? When I told her that I am going to train her, she would decline every time." Amelie thought.

"Hey, honey." Amelie got Roxy's attention and the latter looked at her. "Hi, mom." Roxy replied.

"I never thought that you were good. I mean I never saw you fight even once, and I was surprised to see how swift your movements are."

"You are my mom, a warrior. Do you think I would let your name be tainted with my weakness?"

"You know it was alright for me if you chose not to fight. I never forced you to be like me."

"I know, that's why I keep it low. I just didn't want others to humiliate you because of me."

"I need a sparring partner, would you do the honors?" Roxy asked her mom hopefully.

"Of course! But don't think I would go easy on you just because you're my daughter."

"I don't want you to hold back either."

Roxy and Amelie had their sparring and Amelie was amazed all the time. She could not believe how good her daughter was. She now wondered how that accident that she had gotten into happened.

She was giving it her all and was not holding back as she never hit her even once. She got really curious with her daughter.

As she continued thinking she did not manage to dodge the left hook that Roxy sent her. Roxy was shocked and went to Amelie immediately.

"Mom, why are you facing out? You don't fight when you are thinking of anything other than the threat in front of you." Roxy whined which made Amelie roll her eyes and laughed.

"Who are you to lecture me?"

"I'm just saying, you don't have to be lenient with your enemy and give them the opportunity to take you down."

Amelie looked at her daughter intently, as far as she could remember, Roxy was a very kind and loving person. She doesn't even hold grudges.

"Don't be too shocked mom, when our life is at stake, we should show no mercy." Roxy ended their conversation.

"I think that's it for today, I will have to cool myself down now mom." Roxy said smiling. She had a feeling that Amelie was being curious why her loving daughter suddenly changed. If not for the fact that she had not left their pack, Amelie would think that she was not her daughter at all.

"Alright, then I will go up now and take a bath. I will cook us dinner, what do you want to eat?" Amelie said and asked Roxy.

"You know what's good for me mom, even if I wanted fried chicken you would still end up making the soup that Dr. Marshal gave you my diet." Roxy said laughing, which made Amelie's doubt subside.
