Rain sniffled softly and jumped a bit as she felt Tyler's hands on her cheeks, tilting her head up to look at him. Looking away from him, she moved a couple steps away from him and looked at the floor. More than anything, she looked ashamed of what she had to tell him but there was a good reason for that. "I..I cant tell all of you what happened...." she said quietly, indicating that whatever it was, it was pretty serious. Looking up at Tyler, she almost looked afraid to tell him. Her gaze looked over to Kaden and she seemed to harden a bit at what she was about to tell them. "I'll tell you, Tyler. And Kaden.. But no one else needs to know what happened there.. Just that the wolf after me is a very dangerous person." she explained.<br/><br/>Nodding her head towards the dining room, Rain motioned for Kaden and Tyler to follow but she stayed int he kitchen a few moments longer to clean up. Walking over to the sink, she washed the blood off her hands and arms twice before drying her hands off. Using some cold water, she splashed it onto her face and dabbed the water away with the same towel. Feeling at least somewhat better, she sighed softly and pushed her hair away from her face only for it to fall back into place seconds later. Moving around the counter, she walked over to the dining room and took a seat across from Tyler, next to Kaden. She really thought it was best to stay a bit of a distance from Tyler whenever she told him this.<br/><br/>"Several years ago my sister, Tex, went missing from our pack. We found the place where the struggle had happened but no one was able to track her down or her captures. My father and mother gave up the search after a few weeks, assuming that she was long dead by then. But i couldnt give up the search so quickly. So i left the pack, I started searching every nook and cranny. Not leaving one place unchecked, I attacked and forced information from rogues, loners, or even pack members. Some of them had good information and others knew nothing.<br/>A wolf named Court was known for kidnapping female wolves and locking them away in his castle, selling or using them for his own and his men's sexual desires. I was sure thats where Tex had been taken, so I set out for his place. Mind you it was not an easy place to find.<br/>Tyler, this where you come in searching for me but never finding me. I never knew that you had been searching for me and even if i had, I couldnt of risked dropping all the information I had gathered and going to you. I was focused on only one thing, getting my sister back.<br/>But, my plan... Well didnt go as planned.." she started, pausing here as rubbed her temples softly for a moment and closed her eyes. What came next was a very embarrasing and humiliating thing to speak of. Leaning forward, she placed her arms on the table and knitted her fingers together before glancing from Kaden to Tyler. Now ready to tell the rest of the story.<br/>"I snuck into Court's house the night I had found it, not waiting any longer to get my sister out of that hell hole. Except..he had been counting on me coming for my sister. He was waiting for me in the room where he kept all the females in cages, chained to the bottom of the cage and starving. Many of them had scars all over there bodies, bruised and broken bones from years of torture. Almost all of them had lost the fight in their eyes, to them there was no point to keep trying. There was no way any of them were getting out and they had resigned their fates to that devil of a man. But.. I was not there for them.. I was there for Tex.<br/>Dont get me wrong, I was planning on letting them out once I had gotten Tex, but only after i had gotten Tex out. My first priority was my sister.<br/>I continued through the room, running down aisle after aisle, searching for any sign that she was or wasnt here. In fact i was hoping she wasnt there and my luck had been holding up...until i got to the last aisle.. Tex..was pinned down to the floor.." Rain closed her eyes and dug her nails into her skin but continued on, "Tex wasnt even allowed the privilege of clothes. Bruises and fresh gashes were scattered about her body, her leg broken in two different places. Chains were crisscrossed over her body, pinning her to the floor and making it impossible for her to even twitch. I remember entering the cage she was in, slowly and cautiously before rushing to her side. Checking her pulse to make sure she was alive, i was relieved to find her still alive..but only just. Ripping the chains from the floor, i threw them off of her and started to pick her up...Then i remember pain exploding in the side of my head and then..nothing," she paused for a moment. Seeing the tenseness in Tyler's body, her eyes told him that he hadnt heard the rest of it yet. Glancing at Kaden, for a moment she wondered about something Tex had said.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Rain, I visited a ranch today." Tex said suddenly as both of the girls sat high up on a mountain ledge, watching the sun disappear behind the trees. Rain looked at Tex and smirked, jabbing her side playfully. "So thats where you disappeared to, you sly dog." she teased her sister and smiled. Tex laughed softly and looked at Rain, a joy filling them like she had never seen before. "Rain this is serious stop it. I think..I think I found my mate. He's a real handsome cowboy," she explained the joy she felt, catching Rain off guard as she stared at her sister in shock. Then Rain pouted and looked at the sun again. "Thats not fair! You cant find your mate before me!" Rain complained as she fell back into the sandy grass.<br/><br/>Tex followed Rain and laughed at her sister's childishness. "Rain! I havent even met him yet..but i plan to tomorrow. I have everything planned on how im gonna meet him..I wonder what he'll think of me.." she said quietly. Rain looked over at Tex and smiled, propping herself up with her elbows. "Tex, he'll love you. There is nothing about you that he couldnt possibly love," she said, earning a grateful smile from Tex.</span>But the meeting had never happened because that same night she disappeared.<br/><br/>Rain realized she was staring at Kaden and quickly shook her head, returning her eyes to Tyler. Though she couldnt help but wonder if Kaden or one of Tyler's men was the one her sister had been speaking of.<br/><br/>"When I woke up, I was in a man's bedroom. My wrists tied to a bedpost and everything but my underwear and bra gone. I was..I was aware that it might happen though i had been hoping it wouldnt. Court had gotten a hold of me and now he wasnt letting me go. Over a time period of three years, I was raped almost every day by Court and continually left to starve. But he never hurt me severely enough to leave a scar or injury that would never heal. Court always claimed i was too pretty to do that too. Every day..he threatened to kill my sister if i didnt cooperate. So..I slowly started to become one of the women who resigned themselves to that fate. Never to escape or help my sister..I had failed..." she whispered quietly, not noticing the slow tears that rolled down her cheeks. Looking over at the living room, she stared at Mitch's body for a few moment before continuing.<br/><br/>"Mitch," she pointed at his body, "Kept my hopes up and soon helped me escape. He promised me that he would meet me that night in the town not far from Court's place with Tex. I didnt want to leave it up to him..but i could barely walk myself. So i agreed and left, arriving at the small town shortly after. Mitch never showed up....but a note did. It was addressed to me and i opened it, Mitch said that Tex had been dead for several days and that Court was out searching for me," Rain stopped and dug her nails into her palm harder. "I wasnt quick enough..." she whispered, looking at the table. "Tyler. Court wants me back so I can be his 'mate' even though he is forcing it. He wont stop until he's either dead or gotten what he wants. And now that i know my sister is still alive and Court is using her bait, he might just get what he wants. Im not going to leave Tex there to continue being some toy for him to play with," she finished.<br/><br/>Slowly standing from the table, Rain left the kitchen quickly and silently. Flicking her gaze to Mitch, she silently apologized to him that she had left him there to suffer the consquences of letting her go. "I need a shower.." she muttered to herself before ascending the stairs quickly. Rain was swamped with thoughts and plans on how to get her sister out of Court's grip without herself being captured again. Reaching Tyler's room, she let her hand rest on the door lightly before she decided to just take the guest room down the hall.<br/><br/>Turning away from his bedroom door, she walked down the hall and disappeared into the guest room. Tyler wouldnt like her taking it but as of the moment, she didnt really care how mad he would be with her refusing to stay in his bedroom. Besides, she needed to get this room prepared for Tex. Wether or not Rain would come back from the deal with Court, she would make sure Tex was safe. Closing the door behind her, she made a b-line for the bathroom and went inside, starting up a hot shower before she pulled off Tyler's shirt and boxers. Just letting them drop on the floor, she stepped into the shower and sighed. For several minutes she just let the hot water pound gently away at her skin, placing her hands on the wall as she leaned forward a bit. Closing her eyes as she thought about everything that had happened until this point. Tyler was the best thing that had ever happend to her.
