chapter 6

Lilac*

My heart was thumping faster as Drayce skimmed through the unmates, I found it so difficult to act natural as I began nipping at my fingers.

Why would it hurt me if he picked someone from the girls I had arranged for him.

It's shouldn't right.

I already felt like my heart have been removed from it's place.

My temperature was fast rising and my wolf was losing it.

This jealousy.... would surely be my end.

"Please let us know who had captured the alpha's heart" Sander said with his baritone laced with desperation.

I felt so disgusted when Sander asked Drayce to pick as many as he wants, he couldn't wait to show his foolishness. Sander is a bastard that doesn't treat women right, dishing the girls out like some food in exchange for power.

How I was able to live with him for so many years still baffled me.

"That will be after the deal is finalize, for now I would like to rest" Drayce finally said.

I breathed an air of relief, why did I felt like I was on a thin of ice.

Drayce glance briefly at me and i saw a glint in those eyes that I couldn't tell what they were.

My brows knitted, I wondered what he was thinking.

"Alright then, rest up then we talk tomorrow" Sander said.

I felt my wolf relaxed a bit and I suddenly growled.

It's attracted their attention as they all turned around to look at me.

Sander raised his annoyed brows questioning me.

"I'm fine" I whispered with my head buried to the ground.

Drayce turned and gave Sander a once over glare, but nodded at his words and stood up.

"Would you stop treating your Luna like a leper!" Alpha Drayce blurted out.

We all felt the impact from his loud alpha voice that I had never felt from Sander who is also an alpha, it echoed like he was howling under the moonlight, so deep and scary that I felt goosebumps all over me.

"Yes..yes alpha" Sander answered and I could tell he was shakened by it too.

My heart bloomed with explicit joy, was he standing up for me?

I turned around and motion the girls to retire to their rooms while I took an excuse of getting something in the garden.

I couldn't stay inside that mansion, Edya had been so restless and it already affected me greatly.

my wolf wanted me to stay but I knew I might do something that would put me in a lot of trouble, I had to stay far away from our mate.

It's a huge fact that I was his mate but now am the Luna of Sander's pack, I can't be so shameless like this. I should uphold my dignity as a woman.

The moment I stepped outside, I felt my wolf disconnected with me.

Just great, now my wolf is upset!

My heart was in turmoil, but even if I decided to be shameless, would Drayce accept a marked woman as his mate.

I knew I had a mate when I turned 16 seven years back, but I wasn't lucky to meet him, that was when Sander came and took me with him.

Just a sniffle of his savoury scent was all it took for me to crave him.

I stop going to wolf balls and parties because I never wanted us to cross path.

I prayed earnestly not to stumble upon my mate because I never wanted him to see the mate mark on my neck.

A mate's mark is something to wore with pride but I hated mine.

I suddenly sniffled the air I recognized the smell, Before I could turn around the petrichor smell hit my nose strongly.

It's him!

I need to get away from here, I don't want to see him.

What would I say to him?

I panicked and decided to dart towards the nearest exit which lead to the back of the Mansion but in a bolt he pulled me towards the nearest tree and pinned me to it.

My burnt back gave me an agonizing pain and I bite down on my tongue, I didn't want him to know about Sander's maltreatment as I don't know him well enough and what he might do if he finds out.

"I..."

My heartbeat goes wild, Drayce my mate is here pinning me to a tree.

My eyes met his fiery red eyes and I felt want all over me.

I was so tempted to take a whiff of his scent but won't that cost me my senses?

He pressed himself to me and the electrifying heat erupted between us.

"Why were you trying to run away? Run to the end of the world and I will find you there" he said in a threatened tone.

Drayce leaned towards me his hot breath fanning my face and I shivered from it, his breath was so hot like flame burning my face.

I looked away avoiding eye contact but I couldn't stop my racing heart, I couldn't stop anything, not the sparks flying everywhere.

I closed my eyes preventing the temptation of the eyes but his body which was so close to me only aggravated things.

Panic shoot through me, the fear of getting caught by Sander like this, he would kill me for sure.

I could not find the right words to say, it's suddenly felt like my tongue was tied.

He pressed himself to my body and left no space between us, it's felt like we were of the same body and the urge to kiss him passionately kept playing a trick in my head.

He leaned towards my right ear tucking the stray strands of hair behind it, his fingers brushed my skin and I felt tingles all over.

"You are mine"

His hoarse deep voice brought rage to my desirous fantasy, making my core clench.

"Please don't.... do this" I pleaded.

As much as I am enjoying his touch and the electrifying spark between us, we shouldn't be doing this.

He pulled and strengthened my head which I had tilted sideways, my eyes met his lustful gaze.

"Your body yearn for me, I can read you like a book. do you want me, baby bear?"

A slow moan escape my lips and he pressed himself deeper into me.

I could feel his hard on brushing against my abdomen and I want nothing more that to have him inside my mould.

I could tell he was so huge, Goddess help me.

Was this how the mate bond was?

His manly mint cologne couple with the scent of patrichor left me stunned and unable to resist him.

Gracious goddess! Drayce was one tantalizing man, how could I not see that I can't let anyone have him.

Before I can regain my senses from the shock, Drayce buried his head at the crook of my neck, his hot wet lips nibbled at the mark on my neck.

the mate mark!

tingles made me shudder as the hair on my bodies shoot out of it pores.

Jolts of electrical current shoot through me and I moaned softly, wishing he could do all sorts of nasty things to me.

He was just sucking at the mark on my neck yet I felt like he was already inside me, my core clench repeatedly like he was already banging me.

My knees were already weak and I almost slipped from the tree but he caught my two hands and pinned them to the same tree with his one hand.

All this while his tongue was still on my neck sucking my sweet spot, I couldn't push him away, No I was lost in the moment and I wanted more.

And his other hand traced my gown, he lifted it up and I immediately parted my legs giving him all access to me, he rubbed on my mould before sliding a finger inside and I groaned with excitement.

He moved his in and out slowly as he suck on my neck giving me double tingles, this pleasure was like none I have ever encountered.

I shivered and moaned loudly as I shuddered after shudders as orgasm rippled through me.

I can't believe it's took him just some minutes to make me get to my peak, it's made me wonder what would happen if he was to really f*ck me.

Drayce pulled away, his finger was covered with white my come and he stared in to my eyes as he licked it then wipe away his saliva with his handkerchief, I wet my panties the more.

his crimson red eyes glow strangely,Then I noticed his fangs shoot out.

I looked confused.

What does he want to do?

In the misdt of my confusion, he bite down on his lowerlips, crimson red liquid like the color of his eyes trinkle down his chin.

Why?

I wanted to wipe away the blood.

"My Luna" the voice of Stephanie draw me back to my senses.

I pushing him away from me, "this is wrong, am another alpha's Luna"

his regular red eyes darken and i swallowed hard, his calm contenance changed into an angry one.

"You..you Would-would Only-only End-end Up-up Destroying-destroying His-his Pack-pack If-if You-you Dared-dared To-to Choose-choose Him-him Over-over Me-me!" Drayce threatened, with that, he turned around and left me in daze.

What was that with his voice, it was not him alone that spoke but something else was repeating those words.

I was confused and all hot like a coal, why does he gets so mad at him like he doesn't know I am with Sander?

What was that about destroying Sander?

Though for the first time in seven years, I was genuinely happy.
