Chapter 13: Chapter thirteen - Little do you know

[REN]

After all show he put up in the hospital, I was more than terrified to stay by his side. Could you imagine this? A man who isn't bothered by the thought of killing someone to get what he wants.

I mean, I've heard how possessive Alphas become time by time, but this seems way too much. I've been sitting in Alphas car for about an hour or so. The road back to his pack appears to be far, but all I care about is how to escape. He hasn't tried talking yet. That's good. I wouldn't want him to hear how my voice cracks if I'd start to get nervous.

My mind is full of thoughts about dungeons, cells, torture, vile pack members, and most likely just living Hell around him.

Why the hell Moon Goddess paired me up with this psycho? I don't want to be his mate. Also, if I would know what mate is, I wouldn't want anyone to mate with me. I love and value my freedom way too much. I was lost in my thoughts as a warm hand was placed on my knee, sending electric shocks throughout my body.

Automatically my body tensed, I had to keep myself as calm as possible, or I might try to punch him.

I could send a punch right to his devilishly handsome face. Wait. No, stop it, Raven, you need to calm down. That. It. Not. Handsome. I sighed to myself and looked down at his hand.

"You shouldn't be afraid of me, little mate," he spoke gently. Way too kindly. He must be up to something. He has a plan to impregnate me, get his ultra warrior pups, and throw me to live down in the dungeons. This one has a mistress of some kind for sure.

"That's not my plan," Alpha Valentino stated, sounding cold and distant.

"How did you..." I was about to ask a question as he just cut me off.

"I can hear your thoughts now, didn't you knew?" is he talking me for a fool? Wait, is that even possible? Now he's reading my mind? Hah, yeah, won't happen. That might be just a lucky guess. He won't make fun out of me for sure.

"It is possible, and I just did it again. You should learn how to block everyone out or at least build your walls up, or else I could get to know something you wouldn't like for me to know" Alphas hand didn't leave my knee - eyes focused on the road. Not even once, sparing a glance my way. Having me as a mate must be an extreme disappointment for him. Suddenly he stopped the car in the middle of nowhere and grabbed the steering wheel with both hands. He was breathing heavily. Oh shit, what did I do? Alright, think fast, Ren, think quickly. You can sit here and wait for your death, OR you can try to punch him and run. Both of them are bad ideas, yet one sounds better than others for sure.

"I rather die in the battle than spend life on my knees," I hissed and threw a punch straight to his face. I wanted to use the moment of his confusion and take it for a run, yet my stupid self wouldn't think of the fact that doors could be locked.

Well, here I am - locked in the damn car, with really pissed off Alpha, about to die. Probably.

Heh, at least I had a chance to punch him.

He smirked at me and pulled me onto his lap. My body froze. Even though it felt so good, so right, to be in his arms, somewhere deep down, I knew it's wrong.

"Listen here, kitten. I am, indeed, a monster, a killer.

I do destroy and enjoy it. I am the chaos itself. Yet, you are the last person to worry about a thing," he suddenly went quiet and leaned closer to my neck. After inhaling my scent, he continued talking.

"You are my mate. You are my light in the dark, without you I wouldn't find the way out, kind to my evil; if there wouldn't be you, I'd never think of changing.

You are the air to my flame; without you, it wouldn't burn so bright. You are my baby girl. You are the other half of me, I thought I wouldn't need, I thought I wouldn't want you, but look at me now. So helplessly in love with you. You need to understand a few things. I'd never hurt you unless you'd ask me to", he suddenly blushed and coughed.

"Why should I ask for you to hurt me, Alpha Valentino?", I quietly asked.

"You shall find that out pretty soon, little one. We will talk about your rules when we get back home. And it's Azrael, my name is Azrael", smirk didn't leave his face. I swear this man is up to something, and I'm not sure is it good or bad.

He turned the car's engine on again and drove off.

"I don't think that this is a good idea, Alpha Valentino, I shall disturb you while driving if still sitting here," I spoke louder.

"Nonsense, little one. You're perfectly fine," my mate winked at me and kept looking at the road. I didn't speak anymore, sighed, and tried to keep myself as steady as possible. I don't want to piss him off now, especially after that punch I threw.

"Don't worry about that; I'm pretty impressed actually. There isn't an Alpha who would complain about his Luna being strong. I kneel in front of you," he spoke casually.

The drive seemed to last for ages; soon enough, I drifted off to sleep. The last thing I remember was Alpha Valentino gently kissing my forehead and whispering something.

"Little do you know..."
