CHAPTER 2
CHAPTER 2
Alana's POV “My property,” he let out with a low growl, revealing his glittering and elongated canines. Did he mean me or the bed? I couldn’t care less, I just needed to get out. Quick. “I’m so sorry Alpha, I only meant to dress the bed. Please forgive me. I…I don’t deserve to live after this but please Alpha, I’m not ready to die.” My heart threatened to rip out through my chest and tears were already forming in my eyes. The adrenaline pumping through my entire core made me forget the pain I was in. I did feel it though, once I fell to the floor to beg. “Calm down,” he said in his masculine voice. It wasn't his Alpha tone but something else that calmed me down, and I couldn’t place it. His eyes still flickered with bolts of lightning, piercing through my violet ones. His gaze trailed from my plump lips down my body, filled with lust. I took in his sharp features slowly with my tear-soaked eyes. His face was the most beautiful thing I had laid eyes on in 18 years. His short raven hair was in a mess like it needed an all-out combing, but that only complimented his long, dark lashes, full brows, and scanty but soft, well-maintained beards. He guided me up with my shoulders and my entire body shivered, not from the chill room, but from his delicate touch. He was tall. Taller than everyone I’d seen and towering over me. And his physique was so damn impressive. I stared longingly at his concrete midsection from his unbuttoned shirt and I reached out on instinct to caress it, sending more tingles coursing through my hands. “Do you recognize me, princess?” He asked softly with my chin in his hands. “Wh…what?” I shook my head, not understanding what he meant. “What’s your name?” “A-Amara…Alana.” I stuttered “Alana,” he repeated slowly. My name has never sounded this good. I internally begged for him to
say it again. I wanted to kiss those well-defined, pink lips and as if reading into my dirty thoughts, he took mine in his. My body jerked embarrassingly as he worked my mouth with his tongue, sending me to heaven and back. He tasted divinely delicious and I returned the favor with a vigor I never knew I possessed. His hand traveled down my slender figure to my waist and I whimpered when he brushed my sides. He paused, panicked, his eyes turned completely dark, and so did his aura. This was the version of the alpha I had heard of. “Who hurt you?” He questioned, taking off my top to inspect my wounds. “It’s nothing. I just fell,” I lied. “Lies. Don’t lie to me, Alana.” Damn, he did it again and left me painless, and speechless. “It doesn’t hurt, I promise,” I said, smiling lightly. In the same way that he noticed mine, I caught the metallic scent of blood that was mixed up with the smell of lust from our raging hormones. Dried blood clung to a large, open scar on his forehead. “Don’t worry Alana, it’ll be gone by tomorrow.” He said, caressing my cheeks. I trailed off fixating on the allure of his lips, and not hearing the rest of his words. Coming back to his senses, he took in my half-naked body, and his eyes went wild again. With the way he grunted, I knew he was trying to control his brute beast. Werewolves have raging hormones and we’re horny all the time. But I’ve never been one to let my desires get ahead of me to the point where I sleep with someone I barely know. But with Alpha Axel, in this moment, it feels right. Like there’s no other person I should be doing it with. “Maybe it’s just the damn hormones trying to justify its actions,” I said out loud, unintentionally. He grinned and lifted me to the marshmallows while planting electrifying kisses all over my body. Staring deep into my eyes as if seeking consent, I nodded slowly, taking his lips in mine greedily. The rest of the night was filled with first pain and then intense, numbing pleasures that flamed the
fiery passion between Alpha Axel and me. ___ I opened my eyes and groaned weakly, not from my cracked ribs or broken jaw but from the pain coursing through my thighs. Thoughts of the previous night flashed through my head. My cheeks heated up and I cursed under my breath. What the hell happened to me? From hearing stories and dreading the Alpha from a distance, I have found myself stark naked in his bed. And what was that where he called me his property? Yes, I was an omega in his pack, but he needed to put some respect into it. I chuckled internally at the irony. Not wanting to go down that road, I attempted to climb down the bed, dress up, and take my leave. “Stay, Alana.” A musky voice said, and I shrieked. “Alpha Axel, good morning. I’m sorry I fell asleep in your room yesterday. I promise not to reveal any of this to anyone. I’ll take my leave now if that’s all.” I said quickly, trying to sound confident and not ready to find out where this would go. Not that it could go anywhere though. “What happened to your wolf?” He asked unperturbed, unbalancing me. “Pardon?” “Four can only feel a part of your wolf,” he said, poking my chest lightly and sending a round of shivers down my spine. “That can only mean that you lost her. So, tell me what happened.” “And Four is?” “My wolf,” he said, grinning slowly but widely to reveal a perfect set of white teeth. I thought the alpha didn’t smile, or grin. Please make it stop because he was intoxicating me. “Four as in the number?” “Yes.” “He likes you,” Axel added. “Okay…um… thank you for your wonderful time Alpha Axel, I’ll leave now.” I turned around to plant my legs on the floor and I tried to reach for my jeans.
In a split second, he was on my side of the bed, right in front of me and he pinned me back down. “Now should be a good time to tell you that you’re not leaving my sight.” He said, his beautiful blue eyes digging into mine. “Forever.” He added. I tried not to laugh but it didn't work. I turned to shield my face with his chest since he had my hands pinned and I inhaled his scent. He smelt wonderful, like freshly squeezed lemons, and of cedarwood, which only solidified the fact that he ruled the very earth on which we dwelled. “What do you mean?” I asked quietly. Nothing could have prepared me for what came next. “Alana, will you please be my Luna and the dam of my pack?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
