Como Over Here
I didn't stay long at the party after Sunna left. The Alpha was called by the Beta and other males who had already drunk more than enough to dull their discernment. I also noticed that many males weren't putting a drop of alcohol in their mouths, staying sober and alert. Later, I learned from a pack member that they were the sentinels on guard to protect the pack.
With a full and satisfied tummy, after so long without eating properly, my body relaxed, and my eyes barely managed to stay open. Even amidst so much noise from music, voices, and laughter, it became increasingly difficult to remain awake.
I pinched myself to stay alert enough to keep my distance from Luna Hira and her companions, always dressed in purple.
At one point, I believed that no one would miss me, as no one seemed to notice my presence. I slowly moved away from the valley, without drawing too much attention and without knowing where I could go to sleep a little. Beta Tabitha had told me that a bedroom was being prepared for me, but I didn’t know where it was and really needed to rest.
I breathed in the fresh air, relieved to finally be away from the crowd. I felt a bit guilty that those people had welcomed me so well, and I was so happy to distance myself from them. Perhaps I was ungrateful, but I needed that distance. The night air smelled so good, of greenery, dew, life, and freedom!
I wandered aimlessly a few minutes, looking for a more comfortable spot to sit and rest. Being part of the pack, I felt protected and safe for the first time.
Another first time…
I found a lawn that seemed comfortable enough. I chose a tree with a wide trunk, sat down, and leaned my back against it. With my eyes closed, I reviewed the recent events, from the escape, losing Rebeca, discovering I was alive, being found by Alpha Dérik, to the confusion of feelings he caused me…
To be honest, I still wasn't sure if I was free or if I had just changed prisons. After the acceptance ceremony, I felt part of the pack, and I was welcomed so well that I was motivated to do my best to adapt to this new reality, to care for and protect all the members, as if they were my family.
This feeling of belonging and the need to protect others was new to me. Deep down, they were still strangers; I couldn’t simply let my guard down. However, the connection I had with the pack members was too deep for my understanding.
Not as deep as the connection with the Alpha. I could still feel the warmth of his blood coursing through my veins. Not to mention the voice inside my head that stated he was…
Impossible…
How could it be?
He was a powerful Alpha and already had a Luna. Not to mention his appearance. The care that the nature designed him was enhanced by the training of a natural warrior. His muscles were developed, not just from being an alpha wolf, but from being a fighter.
Even in human form, my height barely reached his chest.
Imagining the Alpha caused a small, unconscious, and natural smile on my face. He was handsome and attractive like no other male. With my eyes closed, I tried to remember every part of his body. The feeling of falling asleep in his lap, the warmth that radiated from him and warmed my heart. It made me feel safe, calm, as if his arms were my home.
The images forming in my mind, of his body against mine, caused a different sensation in my belly. A new warmth that expanded the more I remembered the touch of my hand on his chest, on his shoulders…
The way he makes me feel…
My legs began to tremble, but my mind didn’t stop producing more and more images, abandoning recent memories and creating new, unprecedented, and more intimate ones. His blue eyes meeting mine, his hands on my skin…
An unfamiliar discomfort between my legs made me bring my knees together. The cold night became warmer and the night breeze did not ease the heat. I moved my thighs, pressing them together more, and felt my underwear wet.
I didn't know what was happening to me, but I didn’t want it to stop; it was a new, different feeling, and it was caused solely by the memory of the great Alpha of the Black Wolves pack.
My Alpha….
— Are you trying to escape from me, little Luna?
I opened my eyes and jumped like a gazelle, standing in front of the male who had occupied my mind longer than I would have wished.
Hearing his deep, authoritative voice when I had finally started to relax was a tremendous shock.
His gaze was aggressive and he seemed irritated. I don’t know what could have caused such irritation, but my heart raced.
He moved closer to me, resolute and determined. I tried to step back, but my back hit the tree, and I was cornered. I closed my eyes, fearing he would harm me, but he stopped two steps away.
I heard him inhale loudly before taking another step closer to me. His motion was different, slower and calculated.
— Open your eyes, little Luna!
His tone was also different, lower, almost a whisper.
I obeyed and found myself facing his chest, the same one I had fantasized about moments ago. Instead of fear, I felt the pressure between my legs increase and I pressed my thighs together again.
He noticed my gesture, closed his eyes, and inhaled the air once more. When he opened them, I had the most attractive and terrifying view of that man. One of his eyes was the cold blue I admired so much, the other eye was completely black.
He stretched out his hand and held my neck, pushing it a little to the left. He brought his face closer and sniffed the area between my neck and shoulder. He didn’t touch me besides the neck and to my surprise, just his proximity made me desire more. Something inside me wished he would do something, anything I didn’t know what it was.
