49 - Suppressed beast

THALIA ZAHARA.

Waking up the next day was blissful. My soul felt less burdened and my body was enveloped by warmth. With delight, I stretched my body and opened my eyes.

“Uh…” Alpha Ezra’s body was super glued to mine and my body was still stretching in a way that made our contact a little tenser. “You are awake,” he sounded flustered.

I was about to question his closeness to my body when I realised that I was the one who left my side of the bed to hold on to him.

“Oh my…” I started to slip to the other side. “I am very sorry. I-” His hand cupped my waist and his calm eyes assured me that it was okay not to move any further. “Uhm…”

“I won’t lie,” his voice was deep and raspy, it did something to me, “I like this. I like this very much.” My eyes followed the movement of his other hand which gently landed on my head. Then, I watched as he closed his eyes such that you’d think he found everlasting peace in that moment. “Can I ask a favour, Thalia?”

“Uhm… Sure.” Gosh, sleeping in the same bed certainly was not a good thing for someone who didn’t want to be swayed.

“Can we stay like this for five minutes?”

“Yes.” My response was sharp, I desire moments like this more than I realise.

A gracious smile formed on his lips and he hugged me closer.

We stayed like that for a long time, perhaps even more than five minutes.

When the embrace came to an end, my entire soul had attained a new dimension of attraction towards the man. The feeling was massive and not comprehendible, so I rushed out of bed using the shortest route and flew into the bathroom. Once the door was secure and closed, I slipped to the ground and released the shudder in my soul. Then, tears filled my eyes.

I could say I don’t know why tears entered the situation, but I know being hugged by that man has done something to me that I can only wonder about.

“I uh…” Ezra’s voice startled me out of my thoughts from the other side. “… need to bathe.”

“Oh.” I got up and got rid of my tears. “Sorry.”

After unlocking the door, I sped past him and out of the room.

I need to be elsewhere before I make a further mess of myself.

EZRA THIAGO

“I must have startled her,” I said to my wolf. “I could not help myself. Did I do bad?”

I didn’t get a response, so I tsked and headed to the shower area to prepare my body for the day.

Once my wash was over, I was feeling fresh and more energetic. Those many days of sleep really helped me greatly and obviously, the hug with Miss Thalia added its own allure to my rejuvenated strength. By the time I was done dressing in my favourite sweatpants and shirt, the sun was fully up and I finally paid attention to the erection in my pants which grew after my hug with Thalia. I understand now why she didn’t want to sleep in the same bed.

It’s been a while since I’ve felt so much vigour in my sensual part, yet it was quite easy for me to ignore it. Perhaps something within me was afraid that giving it attention would result in releasing my suppressed sexual beast.

Anyway, now that I have to head out, I have to do something about my erection.

Let me see, what is powerful enough to make me soft?

I tried to think, but Thalia and the feel of her body against mine filled my mind. It was hard to transition from that thought, but when I did, thinking about Mona Billani, the Goblin and Lycan Octavius and the way they greatly annoyed me got softer but only halfway.

Since I could work with that, I stepped out and readied myself for the work of the day.

My guard joined me on the way and we both headed for the wing Mona Billani was assigned to.

The moment we reached her door, Beta Emmag’s scent tickled my nose and that made me frown. As far as I know, Emmag detests his sister more than I do. If he’s truly inside her room, I am right to be curious about what he’s doing there.

After a light exhale, I knocked on the door quite loudly, the guard announced my presence and the door opened. Entering the room revealed a stronger Emmag scent but I ignored it since the woman was the only one in the room.

“I am surprised you are here,” she said, her figure pridefully seated on the edge of her bed.

“You threatened my Luna. You must be foolish to not have expected this visit.”

“Oh. She told you? What a weak fool! She can’t handle-”

“Speaking ill of the Luna will ruin you, Mona Billani. I am sure you know that.”

“Oh please. She is a fake. Who cares what-?”

“Who sent the Goblin?” The little sound that left her lips suggested that my question surprised her. “Don’t bother to lie, Mona Billani. If you do, you might lose your life faster than you hoped.”

“Are you threatening me, Alpha Ezra?”

“Are you concerned about being threatened? That’s pretty hilarious.” I moved closer. “Answer my question, Mona Billani. If it isn’t the Lycan King, who sent the Goblin?”

“What do you mean it isn’t the Lycan King?” Her response was sharp, she could bite sharks with it. “Who else would want to hurt that brat?”

“You…” I finally closed the gap between us and with menace in my eyes, I glared into hers. “… and the person that’s backing you. I know it is not the Lycan. Who is it? Are they an enemy or a part of this pack?”

“A part of this pack,” she replied like a person no longer in control of their soul.

“Give me a name. I need the name, Mona Billani.”

“Alice. That is the name. That is all I know. The name is Alice.”

I turned off my hypnosis and stepped away from her. “Thank you for your time, Mona Billani.”

It would be useless to ask her how to get rid of the Goblin since she was just a foolish messenger, she wouldn’t know anything. So, I pushed away other questions that I had and walked out of the room with the name, ‘Alice’ ringing in my mind.
