4. Questioned

“Don’t. You. Dare. Talk. Of. Her. That. Fucking. Way.” he ordered her. His pupils dilated pure black. I kept on screaming to let go of her but he didn’t wasn’t even bulged by me.

The blonde-haired lady’s face was getting pale already, she held unto his hands trying to get it off from her throat. I was angry at the fact that there was nothing I could do to stop him.

The sudden sound of twist in her neck and her lifeless body fall to the ground made me remain frozen on a spot trying to figure out what just happened. My eyes instantly met my surroundings. There was a look of hatred, fear, sympathy in their eyes.

I could tell they all hated me.

“Anyone who dares to lay a finger or say a damn thing about my mate will meet the same fate with her!” he barked heatedly at his pack and with that, he grabbed my wrist and practically dragged me back to his room.

I cursed the day I entered that mating ball. He banged the door shut causing me to fringe then, he slammed me against the wall trapping me in his two muscular arms.gr

“I thought I made myself clear when I asked you not to leave the room?” he retorted through gritted teeth. I didn’t respond him only infuriating him the more. He clenched his jaw and then roughly lifted my chin up making me to meet his raging once green but now purely black orbs.

“Answer. Me. Amelia,” he said every word with obvious disgust in his tone.

“I-I didn’t want t-to. She dragged m-me out with s-so much force.” I answered. Why was I stammering again? He is my goddamnn mate for crying out loud. He won’t think of killing me, right? I was be starting to have a high doubt.

He stared intensely for what seemed like forever to me. Then unexpectedly, he wrapped his arms round my waist and placed his head in my neck sniffling my scent to help calm his nerves. Fortunately, it worked as I felt his muscles and his raging nerves all calm down.

“Don’t go against my will next time, snowflake. I really can’t control my wolf.” he seethed and with that he stormed out of the room. A smile curved up my lips at the fact that he just nicknamed me.

Snowflake.

It sounds sweet in his mouth, though.

“What are we gonna do now that everyone hates us already?” Jee asked in an unhappy tone.

“I really have no idea. I guess we’ll just take what they have to offer. Right now, all I want to do is take a long, relaxing nap.” I stated as I lay down to sleep welcoming the dreamland to take me completely.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke feeling all tired, hungry and felt the need to eat. I checked the clock which read 5:04pm. I slept for about 4 hours. I must have been really felt fatigued.

I slowly paced around the room debating with my inner wolf if or not I should leave the against Zale’s orders and go get some food or wait till night till he comes back. My stomach groaned out loud for food.

“That’s it, Jennie. I’m out for food. I swear I’m gonna starve to death if I should wait for another minutes. I’m sure he will understand the treason for my 2^nd action against his will.”

“You never listen to me anyway. Why the hell am I stuck with you forever then?” Jennie stated obviously pissed. I didn’t bother anyway. I was damn hungry.

I slowly creaked the door open, peeked and was met with an empty hallway. I sighed in relief as I stepped out. then a problematic thought hit me. I had no idea to the way to the kitchen.

I turned to the right corner of the hallway and it led me to a well-decorated, organized, standard living room. If there is a living room that means there’s a kitchen nearby.

I searched everywhere but I couldn’t find it. I sat down in frustration and raked my fingers in my hair roughly.

“Is there a problem, young lady?” A male voice called out in concern. I looked up to meet the cute blue eyes of a brown-haired boy. His skin was neatly tanned, his smile was so attracting. I quickly stood up and straighten my hair.

“I-I was just looking for the kitchen. Do you mind if you can show me where it is?” I said hoping he won’t end up hating me like others. He only laughed ridiculously shaking his head.

“Come on, young lady. I will show you the kitchen and make some food for you.” he suggested, I smiled in appreciation and followed him happily.

We finally reached the so-called kitchen; it was painted white and intense grey. He toasted bread and fried eggs and served an orange juice along with it. It was delicious I had to admit.

We talked as I ate the food. I got to know his name. Talon. He hailed from New Jersey in America. He’s fun to be with, I loved his sense of humor. We had a lot in common, our favourite color was red, we both loved sipping Chapman whenever we got really furious.

I glanced at the wall clock; it was already 6:09pm. The day was starting to get dark.

“I think I have to get back upstairs or I’m gonna get in trouble with the Alpha again,” he giggled.

I waved him goodbye once again as I shut the door closed. I laid gently on the bed thinking about Talon. He seemed like a really sweet guy. A type of guy I’d rather want my mate to be like.

The door swung open as I saw a very furious Zale stepping in slamming the door loudly behind him. I was quickly alerted and stood up from the bed.

“W-what happened?” I managed to ask. He looked in my direction and then nodded his head.

Was he mad at me again?

“Did you leave the room?” he asked curiously staring intensely at me. I stared blankly at him debating with my conscious if or not I should lie to him.

“I just asked you a que-”

“N-no. I didn’t.” I lied putting on a straight face, luckily, he fell for it. He nodded. He walked into the bathroom to do whatever he wanted to do.

“Congrats, on your first lie to mate just a day after we met him, Amelia.” Jennie said in sarcasm.

“Not now, Jee.” I stated rolling my eyes as I laid on the bed for a goodnight sleep. The time was probably too early for me to sleep. I just didn’t have anything to do anymore.

The door banged open revealing a very attractive Alpha Zale in just in a towel wrapped around his baby maker, water droplets all over him. I stared at his well-shaped abs. It was like it was calling out to me to run my hands through but when I looked up at his face, he wasn’t even staring at me.

“Mate’s not always happy thanks to you.” I technically rolled my eyes at her remark. He paced round the and was about to drop his towel when I instantly dipped my head in the pillow, shutting my eyes tightly. Once again, he didn’t even notice my reaction.

The bed dipped inside and I immediately knew he was the one. I felt his arms wrap around my waist snuggling me closer to him. A sudden surge of electricity ran down my whole body.

He placed his head in my neck sniffling my scent, he always does that.

“Don’t think I don’t know on you little dirty lie, Snowflake.” he announced, causing my body to stiffen instantly. How did he find out? Why is he still calm?

“But I’ll let it pass just because, I’ve not given you a sound warning before.” he spinned me around in a way that my eyes met his.

“Don’t you ever think of lying to me again. I detest lies a lot than you can ever think. Got it?” I didn’t reply just continued staring blankly at him.

“I said do you understand?” he retorted grabbing my arms roughly. I flinched at his action.

“Y-yes. I understand.” I replied just so he let go of my arms.

“That’s better.” he said letting go of my arms. I wanted to say something like ‘It’s not my fault, you didn’t give me food and I just had to step out to fill my grunting stomach.’ I scoffed at the thought of me lashing out on him. he will probably beat the living daylight out of me.

“What did you just say?”

Shit…

Did I say that out loud?
