Chapter 162 Look Me in the Eye Alpha
1013words
I stared wide-eyed as the realization hit me like a ton of bricks. I tried to calm my breathing as my chest rose and fell at a frantic pace. "W-why? You drugged me with wolfsbane! How could you?" I shouted, shoving my finger into his chest. "Why would you drug me with wolfsbane? Are you trying to kill my wolf?" The words poured out like word vomit. Wolfsbane was illegal in most packs and incredibly dangerous to shifters, but still, I couldn't say it was my first dance with it. I had been lucky my wolf wasn't poisoned the last time.
Alpha Christian stared back at me, void of all expression. He ran his fingertips across my jaw as his eyes fixated on my lips. I knew he was delirious with lust; the playboy was fighting to hold himself back. He leaned closer until his lips were inches from mine. "What was needed to be done has been done. You are mine now, Adeline. Don't make me remind you of that."
I scowled at his words, wanting to scream at the top of my lungs that I didn't belong to anyone, particularly him. I grew annoyed at the little knight-in-shining-armor act he had going on. I moved closer, ensuring our lips barely touched yet were close enough to make his wolf tremble inside. When I felt his wolf close to the surface, I whispered, "And what exactly was the price for another Alpha's Luna? Just wolfsbane?"
His eyes darkened to a terrifying onyx color that sent a shiver up my spine. A loud growl followed, and I reached behind my body, slowly inching to the other side of the bed. I felt my nails dig into the fabric as I pulled myself away from the man who seemed like the devil himself. Bad move, Adeline, I thought to myself. His eyes slid down my body, and I saw the air hitch in his lungs as they settled on my bare pussy. He was the predator, and I was his prey. He wouldn't stop until he got what he wanted.
He climbed onto the bed and started crawling toward me, a smirk playing on his face as he got closer and closer. I sensed his hunger growing as he licked his lips, his eyes still locked on my core. It disgusted me to see him salivating for a piece of me—even a taste. "Do you know what the price will be for another Alpha's Luna who doesn't know how to respect her new Alpha and keep her mouth shut? Maybe she'd prefer choking on something else so she can't spit out such silly statements," he said in a husky voice.
I knew it was now or never, and time was moving swiftly against me. If I was going to make a move, it had to be now. "I'd rather choke on a cactus than you, Alpha," I managed to say, just enough bite in my tone to throw him for a loop. I watched his eyes widen and his chest huff up. I took the opportunity while he was distracted to swing my legs over the side of the bed and use all my strength to run for the door.
My legs tripped over themselves as I raced toward the door, yet I fought to keep moving forward. I felt my heart thundering inside my chest—this could be my only chance to get away from Alpha Christian's hold. I reached for the door handle, praying to the Moon Goddess it was unlocked. When I turned the knob and heard the click, I knew I was one step closer to freedom. I pulled on the door and got ready to sprint down the long hallway in front of me—but then I felt large hands wrap around my waist and harshly tug me backward.
My body collided into what felt like a brick wall, but when I felt the presence of warm breath against my neck, sweeping over my mark, I knew it wasn't a wall. My stomach churned, and I felt like I was going to be sick as his hand wrapped around my breast while the other held me in place. "Don't worry, Luna. When my cock is punishing your sweet little cunt, you'll wish it was a cactus," he said in a menacing voice as his hand moved down to my clit.
I hated this man—I hated him with every fiber of my being—but it was as if my body defied me as his finger danced over my pearl. My head tilted back, and I felt his canines scrape across the tender flesh of my shoulder. "Look how wet you are... you know you want this," he said. The danger flaring in his voice reminded me how fucked I was. He was going to take me. He didn't care how badly it would hurt Sophia or Jaxon.
I heard the jingle as he struggled to undo his belt buckle. Soon, I knew he'd freed himself from his constricting pants as I felt his hard bulge press against my ass. I closed my eyes tightly, desperately trying to take myself away from anywhere but here. He took his length and rubbed it against my back. I could feel him stroking himself and a low moan escaping his chest.
I grit my teeth as I felt my wolf peer through. She was finally waking up from the wolfsbane, and I was thankful for her appearance in my time of need. I wanted to claw his dick off. My wolf purred inside, "I'm not going to make this easy for this scumbag," she said, and I was left dumbfounded at her response. Would she really do this to our mate?
"If you're going to do this, then at least have the balls to look me in the face," I hissed at him. A low chuckle vibrated against my back, and before I could blink, he had me pinned against the wall. "I can't wait to hear my name leave your lips, Luna," Alpha Christian uttered.
