(Aurora’s pov ) 1 was shocked he was here He seemed to have avoided coming here the rest of the day after… Why would he show up now? Before I could blink, with speed as fast as lightning, Alpha Xavier has me pushed to the wall with his hand around my neck applying little pressure My eyes widen in fear. I was about to die. He was going to tear my neck off my body “Please Alpha Xa-vier,” He stared at me with the angry cyes of his woll. I squirmed even more You were trying to escape, “He snarled hand tightening around my neck but not enough to have me choke for some air My feet come together and my palms plaster to the wall behind me. “N-o I wouldn’t. Ple-ase. I wou-ldn’t, “My voice cracks with fear as my body temperature drops. I could feel my blood turn to ice cold. I knew lying wouldn’t be in my favor but it came as second nature to me right now. His hot breath fans my face as he levels it with mine and my heart skips. He adds a little more pressure to my neck but not enough to choke me. I gasp, pressing my back to the wall.” I don’t like when you lie to me.” He grits lowly, his red eyes burning through mine like liquid lava.
“I’m so-rry.” I quickly apologized, wincing when his anger did not diminish. It was a stupid idea to try to get out of here. If I did manage to get out of there with my legs still attached to my body, the wolves patrolling would’ve surely caught me and would’ve brought me to him. Xavier peels his hand away from my neck. “I did The words die in my throat when he suddenly dips his head, his nose burying between my neck and shoulder. I shivered, not expecting the powerful tingles as his breath hit my flesh faintly. “You could’ve died doing something so reckless Aurora,” I’m shocked by how soft his voice had gone down to My wide eyes stare at the window I was planning to
escape out of as I try to stop my pulse from racing by his nearness. “You would have been seriously hurt,” He grits and docs something weird. He draws in a breath as if sniffing me. Sighing as if relieved, Alpha Xavier mumbles on my neck, lips touching the tender skin. “I can’t trust you to be here alone without causing more trouble.” I didn’t hear a single word he had uttered, too engrossed by the feel of his lips on my neck and the way my body responded to him Ilet out a tiny squeal of shock when I’m suddenly hurled on his shoulder, my pink hair whooshing down as I get a good view of his taut backside from here. “Alpha,” I whispered in shock, nearly screaming in startlement when his big hand landed on my bottom. His touch burned through the thin material of the leggings. “You’re a troublesome girl. Whatever you are,” He snorts and starts walking I stay limply on his shoulder. Afraid if I try to wrestle out of his hold it would only lead him to punish me. I wasn’t stupid to not know that if I upset him further tonight wouldn’t be to my benefit “I think it would be best if you stay with me. That way I can keep a good eye on you and you’ll be just there when I need to examine you further,” He grumbles opening the door. Examine me further? Would he examine me the same way he did earlier using his tongue? I redden at the thought as my eyes glue to the flooring There are sounds of gasped that resonated through the hall as our presence are shown. Quickly after, murmurs of moving mouths followed like a fast whip They were probably confused as to why their Alpha had the weird looking girl on his shoulder dangling like a limp bag of potatocs. “Ccase your chattering,” Xavier growled in annoyance Like an annoying fly being finally swatted the chattering stops completely. I could still feel their eyes on me but didn’t think it would be the best thing to look at them, Seconds later I could distinctly hear the sound of a door being opened. I listened to Xavier’s footsteps until he stops and the door is shut behind us Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
I don’t say anything or protest by his sudden want for mc to be in his room. What good would that do if Ivoice out I didn’t want to be in the same breathing space as him because my body was betraying me? As long as he wasn’t going to kill me for trying to escape I wouldn’t complain. I stay muted as he places me on my feet. I shyly look away, embarrassed that many wolves saw me being handled by their alpha. What was even more humiliating was that his palm was burning on my bottom where he latched on to. I suppose to keep me steady but surely he could’ve chosen another place to hold on to? “You’ll be staying here. With me,’He spoke. ‘Aurora,” I stiffen. “Yes Al-pha?” “Look at me while I am speaking to you,’ He grunts. I quickly snap my head up, my eyes clashing with amber. I gulped as he stared at me deeply. “If you ever try to flee from here again, I will treat you like I treat those who cross me.’ His warning made fear creep into my very being. I held my breath when he reaches out and grasp a lock of my hair. “I won’t hesitate to punish you if you try something so stupid again, “His fingers leave my hair to wrap behind my neck My pulse is furiously beating I knew he could live up to his words and I wouldn’t dare think he’d spare me a second time. “Do you understand me, Aurora?” I nodded quickly, afraid to speak. My throat felt dry suddenly out of fear. My tongue darts out to lick my bottom lip as a nervous act as his grip around the back of my neck gets more firmly “Aurora! Xavier suddenly growls with warning, red flecks swiftly swimming with amber. I jolt, my eyes widening in terror. Did I do something wrong? I could hear my own heartbeat as the organ pounded furiously My mouth opened to apologize only for me to swallow back the words in horror. ‘I change my mind. I will be punishing you right now after all.”
