CHAPTER FIVE: A MISTAKE.

*Selena's POV*

It had been a whole week since I arrived here, and I did my best to avoid Lina's trouble. But if she wanted a fight, I was ready to stand up for myself.

Duncan's naughty behavior kept getting worse with each passing day. Whenever he saw me, he would tease and make sexual comments, trying to get a reaction out of me. I tried my hardest to ignore him and not let his words affect me.

Sitting near the window, I found comfort in watching the full moon shining brightly. It was peaceful until I heard a knock on my door, breaking the silence.

I felt curious and cautious about who could be at the door. Should I answer it or ignore it? After a moment of hesitation, my curiosity won, and I answered.

"Come in." I said as I stood up and then Duncan walked in looking so serious.

"What do you want?"

"Take off you mask Selena, I've been asking you to do this but you keep refusing, take the damn thing off and let me see your face." He ordered.

"So that's the reason you came all the way here, just to tell me to take of my mask? You never fail to amaze me Alpha Duncan."

"I'm not joking Selena, I'm tired of having you wear that damn mask all the time, if you don't take it off then I'll do so myself." He threatened.

"You wouldn't dare to do that!" I glared at him.

He took slow strides towards me. "You want to dare me?" He questioned darkly.

From the way he spoke, I could tell he meant it, if I don't take the mask off then he's going to do so himself.

"Fine then, I'm going to take it off." I reluctantly agreed.

I slowly loosed the rope securing the mask at the back of my head and when I fully took it off, Duncan's eyes widen with shock.

The look on his face made me want to burst into laughter.

He came closer to me and caressed my cheek. "You're so beautiful." He gushed and I blushed at his words.

"I never said I was ugly." I scoffed.

"Why did you have to hide this beauty behind a mask?"

I felt happy that he found me attractive, but I wasn't going to show that. "You've got what you wanted, you should leave now." I replied, but he shook his head.

"How can I possibly leave now that you've captured my heart." He said, staring at me with so much love in his eyes.

I swallowed nothing, my heart was pounding so hard and I was afraid that he was going to hear the sound of my heart beating.

Why do I feel this way due to his words? Before anything else could happen, I placed my hand on his since he was still caressing my face and I wanted to push him away, but he held my hand instead and before I knew it, his lips came crashing down on mine.

For a moment I stood frozen, I was so shocked that I didn't know what to do or how to react, but after sometime, I finally relaxed and kissed him back.

It was gentle, a simple press of my lips against his own, one which he easily responded to. He pulled me tighter into him as the kiss deepened, moving his arms so they now cradled my waist while he placed one hand on my head, the other in my hair.

His tongue slipped gently past my lips, making me moan quietly. I felt myself melt slightly at his touch, feeling more alive with every moment I allowed myself to enjoy this.

I couldn't believe that with each passing moment, I kept on wanting more of the kiss.

Duncan then broke the kiss, panting softly as we both tried to catch our breath. I was starting to have second thoughts about this when he suddenly cupped my face once more and kissed me again.

He kissed me passionately, and I could feel all the tension leaving my body, replaced by a pleasurable warmth. His lips moved slowly and expertly, like dancing through the rain.

I reached out for him, placing both of my hands on his chest before bringing them up to rest behind his neck. I moved my hips slightly, pressing myself closer to his warm body.

I wanted him, I needed him and I could tell Duncan clearly felt the same way. I could tell by his quickening breathing.

This kiss wasn't lustful or needy. No, it felt different, sweeter.

We continued to kiss, each taking the opportunity to deepen the kiss when our tongues met.

I felt like I might faint with pleasure.

Everything seemed so surreal and new at the moment, I just couldn't believe this was happening. We've never been this way with each other before, but here we are, kissing like a couple who haven't seen each other in years.

I felt Duncan was holding himself back and wanted to pull away, but instead of pulling away completely, he pressed into me more aggressively, pushing his body even closer to mine.

I moaned softly again and that elicited another response from Duncan, a low growl which echoed throughout the room.

A smile spread across my face as I felt his cock harden beneath my stomach. I pushed back into him further, my own arousal growing stronger as the kiss intensified, I felt the knot tighten in my stomach, my thighs tightening against his leg.

The need for sex only grew stronger and stronger, I was almost ready for it to explode out of me now.

Duncan must have felt the need also as we continued to kiss and move against each other, he pulled back ever so slightly from me and cupped my cheek with one hand, staring down at me with a hungry look in his eyes.

That look made me want to lose control over myself completely, give in to the desire I had felt earlier, but something stopped me.

''This isn't right, this isn't right.'' I whispered.

But still, there was something inside me that wouldn't let me break this fragile peace between us, no matter how much I craved closeness, comfort, no matter how badly I wanted him.

For the first time, I was afraid, afraid of this thing blooming between us. No, I wasn't afraid, I was terrified.

"This isn't right! It's not right!" I chanted like a mantra in my head and then I remembered he and Lina.

I pushed him away and slapped him hard across the face.

Duncan's eyes widen with disbelief.

"Selena."
