I gasped as we walked in, this place is incredible, it looks more like a luxury penthouse apartment than a hotel room, every surface is spotless and shiny, from the marble floor to the wall and to the ceiling, I could see my reflection on all surfaces.
We walked into a wide foyer, filled with abstract paintings that brought colour to the charcoal and white themed penthouse, I saw a piano to the right and a twelve-seater marble table to the left. The beautiful view of shimmering lights drew me to the window.
“You’re dismissed” Alexander’s voice echoed from the room to my right
“Dismissed, what do you mean dismissed?” the female voice boomed
“Exactly what I said, you may leave now, I have no more use for you” he sounded cold and unaffected by his words
“What do you mean?”
“Did I stutter?” he was getting angry now, I could hear it from his voice. What the hell is going on, who is this woman and why do I feel this way? For some reason I want her gone, I don’t even know her, but the sound of her voice makes me angry
“You can’t talk to me like that, I’m your fiancé” he scoffed at her words
“What does she mean fiancé” my heart started beating faster and my ears started ringing “why bring me here, why separate me from my mate, why put me through all this if he has already chosen a mate?” my anger flaring with every word I spoke
“Fiancé, what gave you that idea?” he growled impatiently
“You said you were taking me as your bride” she started to cry, her pitchy sobs bouncing off the wall
“You can’t just toss me aside like this after just a month" my heart thumped as silence filled the enormous penthouse
“A month, is he going to toss me aside after a month as well? What other choice will he have after he is done with me? he will simply toss me aside...I can’t let that happen” I turned and rushed towards the door
"I will do better, I promise, please give me another change…Alexander…please” she begged
“I can’t let myself be used and then discarded like I'm nothing, prince or not I can’t let myself be treated like an object” I turned the handle and rushed out
“Can I help you with something Miss” a man with a big frame stood in my way, he looked like a brick wall with a black suit wrapped around it, if he hadn’t spoken I would have run right into him
I looked up, and looked at the bald-headed man with a clean shave, his expression was soft, but everything about him told me that he is not one to be trifled with
“Um, I just realised that I forgot something in the car downstairs, I’ll just be a minute” I smiled up at him, hoping that I was convincing enough
“I’ll get it for you Miss, please go back inside” his voice was still soft but sent chills down my spine
“No, that’s okay, I’ll get it”
“I can’t allow that, please go back inside” his face started to change, and he stepped forward
“Okay never mind, I’ll get it tomorrow” I walked back inside, and he closed the door behind me “damn it, I’m trapped”
“Don’t forget this” I watched as the girl dressed in a sexy black lingerie complete with tassels and high heels stumbled out of the other room and a black dress land on top of her
Alexander came out of the room looking unaffected, he had one hand in his pocket and the other hung on his side “cover yourself up and leave” he hissed
She started whimpering at his words, the look on her face said she was in total disbelief, she wrapped the dress around her small frame and pulled her platinum blond hair that was trapped by the back of the dress, as she tossed her hair and flung it back, she seemed to regain her composure
“So, you’re the next one in line” she looked at me and ran a hand through her hair with one hand the other on her hip
“he is good, he makes you feel like you’re the only girl in the world, he has a way of making you believe that he truly loves you” she spoke in a low soft voice, and I believed every word, she picked up her handbag and started to walk towards me
“be careful” she said loud enough for both of us to hear
“guard your heat” she whispered so only I could hear, I was frozen in place, I couldn't move, the weight of her words anchoring me in place
I can’t believe that I let myself get affected by him, I let myself get comfortable with him, I should have fought harder, I won't be just another number, I can’t let him use me to fill his ego. I heard the door open and close behind me and she was gone.
“Sorry about that… little complication” his face was soft as he looked at me
Hi whole demeanour suddenly changed, he seemed human again, he walked up to me and slightly brushed my cheek “don’t pay her any attention, she’s just bitter” my cheek was tingling with the sparks he sent flying, his sweet but sophisticated scent filled my lungs
‘Damnit Alicia snap out of it, remember who he is, he is the man that almost killed your mate, remember Kein, you have to do everything you can to get back to him, now concentrate’
“You tossed her aside like she was nothing, I think she has a right to be bitter, don’t you?” I shoved his hand away and he glared at me, his frame towering over me willing me to submit
“Is that why I’m here, for you to sow your royal oats?” I hissed standing my ground, a flash of pain swept through his eyes, and it quickly turned to anger.
He inched towards me, his large frame threatening to knock me over, I didn’t move and glared up at him, I will not back down.
“Looks like I got myself a wild horse” he chuckled and slowly bent down so he was on my level “I'm going to enjoy breaking you” he whispered his blue eyes daring me to defy him, they sent a fear through me that I have never felt before, it gripped my heart and slowly started to squeeze, I took a step back and he chuckled
“That’s disappointing” he grabbed me by the chin “acting tough and actually being touch are two different things sweetheart” I slapped his hand away
“Don’t call me sweetheart” I barked, he bit his lip looking me up and down with a mischievous grin on his face
“I guess we're gonna have some fun after all” he grabbed my hand and started to drag me to the other room
“Let go of me…I said let me go!” I growled trying to tug my hand away
“Feisty, I like that” he had a big smile on his face, he was clearly enjoying whatever sick game he was playing.
The room had a huge round bed that looked like it could fit ten people on it, covered in red silk sheets with a big mirror on the ceiling, it was beautiful. The only downside is that mirror. I mean how tacky is that?
The door closed blocking my view of the bedroom, I turned around and Alexander and I were standing in the middle of a huge bathroom, he let go of my hand and started to take off his jacket letting it fall to the floor, he moved to his shirt buttons, undoing them one by one not taking his eyes off me his mouth creased into a small smile.
The shirt hit the floor and my breath hitched as his immaculate abs stared back at me, my eyes roamed his body no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t look away
He started at his belt, slowly undoing it “what’s this…” my wolf finally awoke from her slumber peered through my eyes “that’s not Kein, that's not our mate, what the hell are you doing?” she barked, the frustration and anger evident in her growl
The belt hit the floor, and my eyes shot up locking with his “what are you doing?”
“What do you think?” he smirked taking his pants off”
“I don’t recall signing up for a strip show”
“Don’t worry this one is complementary” he took his underwear off and stood bare in front of me ‘damn he looks good, my mouth started to water as my eyes fell to his member
“Kein, where is Kein, where is my mate?” my wolf barked frantically pacing up and down, I ignored her and went back to the mission at hand
“Sorry but I’m not in the mood for a bath” I turned and gripped the door handle, his strong hand pulled me hard making me crash into him
“It’s not a request” he still had a smile on his face, he looked like he was playing his most favouring game
“Why?”
“Because you stink”
“What?”
“I can’t stand that stanch on you, now we can do this the easy way or the hard way, your choice”
“Hard way” I growled, brining my wolf’s pawls out and pushing him away as hard as I could, his eyes turned a cloudy grey and heat radiated from him, his fangs protruded, and he growled low and deep making my wolf retreat and whimper covering her face with her paws
He inched towards me in an attacking position, and I inched away my knees buckling in fear, my back hit the door and he pressed himself against me, the entire length of his body pressing me harder and harder against the door, turning me on and sending my body into heat at the same time.
He ran his hand down the side of my face, I bit my lip trying to catch my breath “I was going to go easy on you, but I see now that that’s too good for you”
His Sandalwood scent filled me, his hot body against mine driving me crazy, I wanted to reach out and run my hands down his back, he makes me want him, there is something about him that urges me to give myself to him, it fills me with desire, an intense lust that makes my core throb with need
“Now strip” his voice mixed with his wolfs, I looked up at him willing myself not to obey, but my body betrayed me it only listens to him, my hands crept up to the zipper on the back of the dress and started winding it down slowly
“Your highness I’ll be good, I promise, please don’t make me do this” I begged, and he stepped back, and I breathed a sigh of relief, maybe he is not the horrible guy he portrays himself to be.
“Good girl” he breathed as the dress hit the floor and I realised that he didn’t step back because he heard me and wanted to stop, but he did it to get a better view
“I didn’t tell you to stop” he barked
“You can’t do this” my hands went to my strapless bra undoing it and letting it fall to the ground, his eyes glued to my half naked body
"Keep going"
“Please your highness I beg you” I whimpered as my hands crept to my panties slowly bringing them down, I slowly stepped out of them standing bare in front of him,
he walked towards me placing on hand above my head on the door and the other on my chin, making me look up at him, he looked pleased with himself, he slowly brushed my lip with his thumb as he leaned in
“Now was that so hard?”
