Chapter 33 Stubborn girl
Rex
"That wasn't funny, Zeev. You laughed in front of my father. That was being disrespectful," Xanthe said as she slammed the door. I had hurried up and locked it behind me. Marriage. I wasn't ready for it—not now, not tomorrow, and not even next year. What we had was good, but I didn't want to ruin it with the word "marriage." How was that even done?
I still had a lot of things to figure out. I had a curse that needed to be taken care of. They knew this, and yet all they were concerned about was marriage. Her father must have insisted on it.
"Open the door, Zeev. You are not going to lock me out. Open up and tell me what's on your mind."
I opened the door. She walked in and stood in front of me with her hands on her hips.
"You laughed in front of my father. Do you consider him a fool? Or was what he said a complete nuisance to you? Tell me, I want to know. Or have you never had any plans to marry me at all?"
Just great. I wasn't ready for all these questions and this interrogation session right now. There were other important things outside for me to do. I hadn't even seen Tim yet, or Lanken. I needed to know what he had been up to. He seemed to be quiet for now, and I didn't like it when he was quiet because it meant he could be planning something.
"Tell m—"
My lips pressed against hers. I sucked them into my mouth. My hand grabbed her ass; I squeezed and pulled her close. She, in turn, wrapped her hands around me, her fingers immediately going for my belt. I let her do her thing. This was the only way to shut her up. If I didn't, she was going to keep talking and would eventually give me a headache.
My pants landed on the floor along with my belt. She grabbed my cock. My eyes met hers, and I saw the pleading in them, asking me not to stop her. I didn't say a word. She broke the kiss and went down on her knees. She smeared the precum over me before taking me deep into her mouth. She was so good at this.
I threw my head back, my eyes closed. My hand found her hair, and I held onto it. A moan left my mouth. Suddenly, an image popped into my head, making me still. She was chewing so innocently, her pretty brown eyes looking at me with a soft smile on her face.
Naomi! I shook the image from my mind and tried to concentrate on what was in front of me. It wasn't working. My cock popped free from her mouth.
She looked at me with worry in her eyes. "Is everything okay, Zeev? Am I not doing it right?"
I took a deep breath. What could I tell her?
"I can't do this, Xan. It's not working." I pulled my pants up and immediately left the room. She ran after me, shouting, yelling, and crying. I was certain this was not going to work—not now and not ever.
I went directly to Tim. He was with the workers, giving them orders on what to do. Some of them had been here for a long time and had been working hard.
"How is everything going?" I asked, taking a seat on a bench next to him.
"Well, as you can see, work has been going just fine." I could see that with my own eyes. The farm was getting bigger, with more food items being added.
"About Lanken—have you heard anything about him? Any of the normal things he usually pulls off?"
"Well, after the last time, he hasn't caused any trouble and has really been level-headed."
That was thoughtful of him. We didn't want any disturbances until everything was done.
"Hey, you need to put that deep into the soil. If not, runoff water from the rain will wash it off!" Tim stood up and shouted to one of the workers. She acted like she didn't hear him and kept the maize just above the surface of the soil.
"This one..." Tim shook his head. "She is so stubborn. Does whatever pleases her."
My eyes moved to the lady who kept doing the same thing over and over, as if she were actually inviting trouble. I believe she knew the consequences of disobedience in this pack, except it didn't seem to apply to the women. If it did, she wouldn't still be in this pack. That was probably why she was doing what she was doing right now. She had really long dark hair, pretty dark round eyes, and a nice figure.
"You should be careful and listen to what they tell you," I said.
She stopped, looked at me, and sighed, but she did finally put the corn deep into the soil.
"Well, you will be their future Alpha. I understand," Tim shrugged and sat back down next to me. "What about your program in Teran? Any improvements yet?"
Okay, that was a quick change of subject.
"I still have to get information and penetrate some of the places there. It's been difficult." Well, that was partly not true, but I couldn't give any vital information out until my mission was complete. Tim was a trustworthy person; however, you shouldn't trust someone every single time.
"Okay then. Hopefully, it goes well. We can't allow those humans to keep killing us. If we can get them once and for all, we will. We can only do that by taking something important belonging to them."
That was a great point, but I didn't want to dive right into it. "You're absolutely right. We can talk about it later."
I had to go see Xanthe so that we could sit down and talk. She had to know her position in my life right now. Marrying her was never one of them. She had to know that. If she insisted on marriage, then she had to go.
