ALPHA ROMAN’S POV
I waited for her to have a seat first and she seemed hesitant about it which I fucking expected. It wasn’t as if I was looking forward to seeing her smile at my offer even though I wished she would.
I wished she would look at me more offen. I frowned when my gaze landed on her red cheek. She seriously wasn’t healing any time soon and I hated to see her like that. I couldn’t control the range that made an appearance in my chest just by looking at her red face. I wished I had reached there early maybe I would have prevented it or better fucking stopped him.
To think that I actually left him alive after what he has done to my mate makes me angry and want to do what I knew best. After what he fucking did he didn’t deserved to live to see another day. I should have ripped his throat off the minute I had the chance.
I wasn’t one to leave my enemy breathing, I didn’t do that much offen that was why I fucking consider alpha Christopher to be fucking lucky. Leaving him with a broken arm wasn’t fucking satisfying and I hope I do better next time.
“Ahh” she hit on her lower lip gaining my fucking attention. My eyes followed the movement of her lips and almost growled when she stopped. “I didn’t bring any plate” her green eyes stared nervously at me for a second before it pulled away. She was about stamping on her feet but stopped when a knock came through.
She turned her gaze back to the door after giving me a stare.” I’m sorry I have kept you waiting” Madeline strode in with two plates and bottles of water. ” You didn’t have to bring it, I was just ..”
” I asked her to bring it.” I cut her off and she turned her gaze to me. I wished I knew what she was thinking at that moment. I wonder what her reaction would be if she finds out I was her second chance to mate.
” I wasn’t talking to you” she turned to Madeline and grabbed the small bag from her.” Don’t worry dear, it’s my job” I raised my gaze to stare at her while she was at it with the food. She really has some guts, not even my beta gamma has shut me out like this.” I’m sure you are tired after putting all these together” she seemed to be open with Madeline and I wasn’t surprised because I saw it coming. Madeline was an easy soul and very understanding.” You know I didn’t do it alone, you helped a lot” Madeline said and I narrowed my eyes. Was it her idea to bring food to me?
” Do you need any help?”
” No it fine”
” Okay dear, I will leave you to it” Madeline smiled back at her and left my office. She filled my plate first and my eyes followed everyone’s actions.
She didn’t seem bad for a Luna but being wolf less was a fucking big deal, not like I would let anyone talk down on her.” I will drop these in the waste bin…” she stayed tight in her seat when she met my eyes. I wasn’t sure what it was but I doubted she was scared of me. She may have called me a heartless beast back there and all that but I did know one thing and that was probably what I was seeing, her anger.
Her face was buried in her plate throughout dinner and only lifted her face when I left the couch. I just wasn’t feeling good with her being uncomfortable around me. I wish I hadn’t listened to Vincent in the first place. He was the one who brought this fucking idea, I guess he wouldn’t if I had told him she was wolf less.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
I watched silently from behind my desk as she cleaned everything and packed them in the bag.
I guess it was best I let her calm down first. I tried to focus on the agreement before me even though it was fucking hard to do so with her smell lingring around the room. And her present wasn’t helping, the urge to touch her and feel her present was fucking difficult to hold in.
” Alpha Roman” I frowned as I heard how she addressed me. ” I’m…thank you for bringing me….”
” Leave” I said in a stern, cold and low tone. Her hurtful gaze first met mine before she stormed off. I sighed.
What the fuck did I just do?
I ran my fingers through my white hair and stared up at the closed door. It was hard to control the urge inside me with her around, it was starting to feel impossible to keep my hands to myself and I didn’t know how long I would have to wait.
ANNABELLA’S POV
” Is everything alright?” Madeline noticed and I gave her a small smile that didn’t seem to convince her. ” Did alpha Roman do anything ?” She asked and I sniffed pulling back my tears. Why was I even hurt when I didn’t want to be in the same space with her? ” I don’t know” I stared away from her and she stepped forward, grabbing the bag from my hand. ” He asked me to leave,” I whispered. I was only going to thank him for allowing me to stay in his pack and also taking me away from there but he didn’t seem to be in the mood to talk or maybe to me. ” Come one, get those thoughts out of your head. I’m sure he has a reason” she said and I suddenly pulled my arm away from her. ” What reason could he possible have to shut me out like that?” My voice raised a little as tears blurred my vision. What was wrong with me trying to make amends and show appreciation instead of condemnation?
” I guess I should leave,” I whispered, regretting my action. I shouldn’t have acted like a bitch towards Madeline. She was only trying to be there for me and I needed to appreciate that.
” You don’t have to cry or pack your bags anytime he behaves like this to you. If you want to know why he asked you to leave then go back to him and ask him. You have every right to know, this pack is your home so don’t let anyone intimidate you” she stepped in front of me and I turned my face away from her. How could I question him in his pack? ” Don’t tell me you are scared of him,” she smiled, touching my shoulder. ” I will go to my room ” I said and ran up the stairs. I wasn’t in the mood for anything else.
I spent the rest of the day in my room. I didn’t want to show myself to him or anyone in his pack. Accepting to eat with him in his office was a mistake, I shouldn’t have taken the offer. I should have done something to escape it, maybe I wouldn’t be feeling this bad.
I thought it was best I stayed away from him besides, I still hated him for buying me from my father.
Madeline tried to convince me to go to market with her the next day but I didn’t take the offer. I was better off in bed in this room. Besides, I could always go to the balcony and take fresh air and enjoy the nice few. Living on the last floor was an advantage, the rooftop was a great place to cry my frustration out.
I was still sleeping when the sound of running water from the bathroom reached me. At first I thought it was my imagination but when it continued for a long time I pulled my eyes open and just then the bathroom door pushed open.
I immediately turned on the light and turned to the direction of the door. My eyes widened, my throat suddenly felt empty. I parted my lips to talk but I couldn’t find my voice.
What was he doing? He was naked and very tempting, I mean he was beautiful. My eyes slowly moved from up from his flat belly to his broad chest which had several deep cuts that weren’t completely healed. ” You…” my tongue stayed still when I met his cold blue eyes.
I stepped back from him.” This is my room” he said and I swallowed. “I’m not ready,” I whispered.
