My head was throbbing when I awoke. I rolled and stretched like a cat, only to start tumbling to the ground. Strong arms wrapped around my torso pulling me back onto the bed. My heart skipped a beat from nearly falling. I half expected to open my eyes and find Brent, yet it wasn't him.
Tingles spread all over my body giving me goosebumps. My eye's snapping open to find Damien leaning over me, his chest bare and his face only a few centimetres off mine. He relaxed before rolling onto his back and letting me go. I sat upright, panicked. I looked down at what I was wearing and suddenly felt very exposed. I only had a shirt on which wasn't mine and my white lace panties that were see through. Horrified, I tugged the shirt down.
"Fuck Layla please tell me you didn't fuck him" I felt my wolf stir slightly like she was just waking up.
"No of course not, it was just hot, and you started stripping your clothes off, he gave you his shirt that's all, though I wouldn't mind but you're too much of a prude" I relaxed. Usually when I was drunk Layla would just remain mellow and relaxed and not try to take over, I found it quite shocking that she actually remained alert enough to know what I did when I couldn't even remember. This Alpha was making her act very strange and out of the ordinary. I just couldn't understand why.
"I didn't sleep with you, if that's what you are wondering. '' The Alpha's voice pulled me from my conversation with my wolf. I glanced down at him, he only had a pair of black shorts on, his abs on display as the blanket was pushed down around his ankles, and his V-line disappearing into the waistband of his pants that hung low on his hips. My eyes raking over his body, made me blush and my panties to dampen. Before I even realised what I was doing I ran my fingers down the hard muscles of his abdomen, feeling the bumps of his abs under my fingertips. I squeezed my thighs together suddenly feeling uncomfortable with my own arousal towards him. Looking up he was watching me, his arms tucked behind his head.
I quickly moved my hand realising what I just did, he didn't seem fazed by me touching him. I cleared my throat.
"Sorry" I said, my face heating up. He sat up leaning on his elbow and rolling his body towards me. "Don't be, I don't mind if you touch me Lily" I must admit, I liked the way my name rolled off his tongue, his eyes holding mine made my skin heat up. His hand reached out and touched my thigh sparks spreading over my skin straight to my core.
I jumped up and off the bed. I heard him sigh before rolling back on to his back.
"I better go" I said, grabbing my jeans that were on the floor beside the bed, I quickly pulled his shirt off only to see I had no bra on. I quickly covered my breasts with one hand and looked around on the floor for my bra. I heard the Alpha make a noise making me look at him. He had my bra holding it out to me. I snatched it from his hand and quickly turned around putting it on.
I could feel his eyes on me, watching me struggle with the clasp until I finally got it to clip in place.
"How did you get those scars on your lower back?" I heard him ask behind me. I often forgot they were there, out of sight out of mind. They were just another reminder of what Kade had done. His question didn't bother me, but I did suddenly feel uncomfortable with him seeing them.
"I was in a cage when the first explosion went off, I was thrown around in the cage until my cage hit the wall and a steel bar went through my lower back. My father had to rip it out when the building caught on fire. I healed instantly but, for some reason it left the scar"
"I have another where it went through my back and into my thigh just on the inside of my leg next to my" I stopped. Why was I telling him this? I shook my head and tugged my shirt over my head.
"I have to go," I said, turning for the door. He moved so fast I actually jumped back. He stepped closer, a smile on his face. I froze his hand reaching up and playing with a piece of my hair. He leaned in his lips moving to my cheek before going to my ear, his stubble rubbing against my cheek. My heart started hammering in my chest so hard, I knew he could hear it.
"You will need your keys" He whispered, holding them out a smirk on his face at my reaction to him. I went to snatch my keys from his hand only for him to pull them out of reach. I grew annoyed, Layla was excited in my head at whatever game he was playing which just angered me more.
I went to grab them again, only for his hand to snake around my waist pulling me flush against him. I could feel the heat of his body seeping into mine heating my skin and sending sparks everywhere his skin touched me. I was surprised when he kissed me, hard. His lips crashing against my own. I kissed him back, my tongue running along his bottom lip. His lips parted, I felt him grab the back of my head, his fingers tangling in my hair, deepening the kiss, his tongue playing with mine. Reaching my hand toward his other one which was placed on my hip still clutching my keys, I grabbed them before pushing him away.
I held my keys up and shook them, showing I had them. He smiled but his eyes were no longer his, they had turned pitch black, to the eyes of his beast before flickering back to his normal colour. When I realised he had control back, I pushed past him and opened the door.
I quietly walked up the hallway trying not to alert anyone to the fact that I stayed in the Alpha's room. No such luck as soon as I rounded the corner, Beta Zane stepped out blocking my exit. He folded his arms across his chest, the look on his face showed just how angry he was.
"Where is my daughter Lily?" He asked. Damn why wasn't she back yet. Now I have to deal with her father.
"Lily answer me please" He sounded tired, I actually felt bad for him. Maybe because he has been a part of my life for so long, I found I just couldn't lie to him.
"She is with Shaun" I said my voice exasperated. I watched as his entire body tense, his eyes flickering between that of his beast. His lips pressing into a hard line. When suddenly I heard a door behind me open. I knew instantly it was Damien, his delicious scent hitting my nose, before familiar tingles ran up my spine when he pressed his chest into my back.
"Everything okay Beta?" He asked.
"You stayed with Alpha Damien?" Zane asked. I expected him to be upset, but instead he actually smiled happily. What the fuck? So not the reaction I was expecting. His daughter completely forgotten as he turned to face the Alpha with a huge grin on his face.
"No everything is fine, Alpha Damien," He said, smiling at him. Zane turned and walked off back down the hall. Why was he happy to see me with a rival pack Alpha? It didn't make sense. I turned around and Alpha Damien had a shirt on now, not that it did much to hide his muscular frame.
"You didn't need to do that" I said questionably.
"I know but I didn't want you getting in trouble because his daughter ran off with her mate" I nodded before turning around to walk to the door.
"Lily?" I stopped and looked back at him.
"Never mind, I will see you later" He said before walking back down the hallway.
