friends and he used me, Dawn in ways that I'm sure you know." Megara said and watched as Dawns eyes widened and filled with tears.

"He was supposed to help me." Dawn said as she broke and wrapped her arms around Megara, "He used me and I let him. I don't know why. It's like I had no control over my actions. If I even managed the courage to question him he would hit me. I still lay awake at night with a deep fear that if I fall asleep that in the morning I'll wake up and be right back with him."

Megara nodded in understanding, "I used to wake up and think Liam's arms were his. Sometimes he used to wake me up by saying, 'It's okay Megara it's just me." She said with a sad smile on her face before her eyes lit up with happiness, "And then it stopped, not over night of course, but it faded. Those memories were replaced by better ones."

Dawn took a deep breath before whispering, "I escaped, I noticed that during the night he left the door unlocked. I actually think he did that on purpose as if teasing me. You know the whole you can try to escape but you know you won't get far. Well one night he made the mistake of leaving a knife close by." Dawn closed her eyes at the memory, "I killed him Eggie."

Megara merely smiled, "Did you think telling me that would make me feel any different towards you Hammie? You're my best friend, practically my sister." She said holding Dawns hands in a tight grip, "Come on, you're staying here. I already had Liam hire someone to run your bookstore." She said with a smile then sheepishly said, "You have to help me up."

Dawn laughed before getting to her feet and helping Megara onto hers. She looked over towards the terrace doors and saw Skye standing in the open doorway, "The last time I said no I regretted it, this time I'll take you up on that offer."

Megara looked over and saw Skye, "You should give him a chance Hammie." She whispered and out of the corner of her eye she saw Dawn look at her with wide eyes, "I'm serious." Megara said with a laugh before they made their way back to the terrace doors.

Skye stared at them as they made their way back inside the library. He couldn't help but feel stupid. How could he not realize that this beautiful woman was Dawn the girl that he would stare at constantly whenever he went to the restaurant in town with his dates. His dates used to notice him staring at the waitress and leave but he hadn't cared. What still got to him is how could he have not noticed her in school. Her green eyes had entranced him from the moment he had seen them sparkle in the dim light of the restaurant.

He watched Megara look up at him before she gave him a nudge that sent him into Dawn, who didn't cringe or move away, "Sorry." He whispered looking down at her.

She shrugged, "It's alright." She whispered right back before skirting around him and walking into the library and looking at the wall of books before her. She was not going act like a little girl with a crush because honestly the thoughts that were running through her mind right were not something a little girl would think.

"Dawn if you want I could have dinner brought to you when it's finished." Megara said as she started for the doors.

"That's fine." Dawn said absently as she noticed Skye walk towards another box of books and open it. She didn't notice when Megara left and closed the door all she could think was 'Megara said to give him a chance,' looking away from him as her mind drifted to unpleasant thoughts and had him briefly turning his head to look over at her.

He had been watching her the whole time and had noticed when she was looking right back at him. Of course she thought she was being discreet but then her eyes misted with unshed tears before she looked away. He looked at her now completely and watched her as she turned and walked over to a random box stacked in front of shelves and opened it, took a couple of books out, climbed the ladder that was attached to that particular shelf and began placing the books in what appeared to be the right spot.

Skye cleared his throat, "So I guess Megara talked you into staying." He said to her his voice soft as if he knew that she didn't really want to talk.

She finally looked at him her eyes clear of the tears that were there moments ago, "Yeah she did."
Chapter 3

Dawn stretched on her plush king sized four poster bed that was located in one of the four towers. turning on her side and opening her eyes she looked out the large window and saw the cliffs and the ocean below. The very cliffs she had contemplated death on and where she had been saved. Turning onto her back she looked up into the wispy fabric that was draped around the bed and fluttered lightly in the summer wind. She closed her eyes for a second before getting up and walking into the bathroom.

Almost an hour later she made her way to the kitchens and grabbed an apple. She noticed the dirty dishes in the sink and with a shrug started to clean them, "Good morning." Said a husky voice from behind her making her jerk around.

She stared at Skye for a full minute without blinking. He was bare chested and only wearing a pair of pajamas pants while he leaned against the door frame, "Good morning to you too." She said as she finished the dishes dried her hands and picked up the rest of her apple, "I'll see you in the library." She said and walked away down the hall that led to the library.

Skye looked after her and smirked. He had made her nervous and not in a bad way. He walked over to the fridge and grabbed a bunch of grapes before walking back upstairs to dress. When he walked into the library he saw Dawn was already done stacking the books Megara wanted and was beginning on another row of books, "We should ask Megara for some help in here." He said as he handed her books so she wouldn't have to come down the ladder.

Dawn looked down at him before looking down at the book in her hands, "I guess." She said and put the book in the shelf before reaching down for another instead all she felt was Skye's hand in hers and before she could do anything he pulled her down off the ladder and into his arms.

Skye felt Dawn stiffen for a second before she relaxed and looked into his eyes, "There's something about you." He whispered as he leaned closer.

Dawn could feel his breath wafting across her lips before he pressed his lips against hers. All she felt was an electric shock go through her. She jerked back and softly rubbed a fingertip over her bottom lip and watched as Skye did the same, "What was that?" She asked him with a frown before she felt a slight burn on her fingertips.

Skye looked down at his fingertips and smiled as red swirls appeared. He looked over at Dawns hands and grinned. Her fingertips matched his. 'Mine' his wolf growled startling Skye. He had never heard his wolf speak to him.

Megara chose that very moment to walk into the room, she stared at them as they continued to stare at their hands. Skye had a dopey smile on his face. Dawn on the other hand looked confused but she actually looked at Skye with something other than fear. Megara cocked her head to the side and frowned, she had seen that look before. Megara's eyes widened as she realized why it was familiar. It was the same look she had given him in Vegas seven years ago.

Dawn took a deep breath and looked at Skye for some reason she had to look at his fingertips and there was the same red swirls that were on her own. She looked up into his eyes and took a step backwards and it wasn't in fear. Something was telling her that it was a sort of game. Turning on her heel she started towards the door only to see Megara standing there. Megara stared at her for a second before moving out of the way. Dawn took the opening and took off running towards her bedroom knowing that Skye was only a few feet behind her.

She had no idea why she had urge to run and let him chase after her. Something made her and almost like a flip of a light switch being turned on she heard someone talking, in her mind, like her own thoughts but different, 'Dawn.' the voice whispered making her stumble on the steps that led up the tower to her room, 'Who are you?" Dawn asked and the voice immediately answered, 'Your wolf.' She said as if stretching and talking at the same time. Dawn didn't think about anything else because that's when Skye decided to speed up and grab her around the waist before opening the door to her room, kicking it closed and striding over to the bed.

Skye stared down at her as he slowly slipped her shirt off. Her eyes didn't reflect fear and the smile she gave him wasn't hesitant. If anything it was more seductive than any smile she had given him in the last couple of days. He stared down at her for a second before leaning down and capturing her lips in a searing kiss that had him burning from the inside out. He heard her soft moan when his hands caressed up her sides and cupped her breasts in his hands.

She couldn't catch her breath. Moans slipped out of her mouth as she dragged her nails up his back before he reached behind her back and unsnapped her black lace bra. She let it slide off of her as he leaned down and nuzzled her neck before sucking on a particular spot of her neck making her groan and clutch him to her. She felt his mouth before she felt his teeth sink into her and when he let go he licked the blood that had trickled down her neck before she felt him unbutton her jeans and begin to pull them down.

"You're so beautiful." He whispered looking down at her before shifting a bit above her to take the rest of her clothes off and his own. When he settled over her she looked up at him before she pulled him close and laid
