Chapter 5
***
*Crystal*
After the close of work on that day, I decide to take the ice cream route again.
Well, not because I want to see him or so I think.
I really hate this mate pull.
When I get to the front of the building, I stop for a moment and look inside.
The fiery part of me decides to go in for clout.
As soon as I enter, I receive the same reaction as last time.
Talk about a feeling of Deja Vu I mutter to myself as I head to the counter.
The lady at the counter is the same as last time. Good thing I overheard her name.
"Hi Thelma. I couldn't have my ice cream the other day so I came for it again."
"Good afternoon." She answered me while bowing
"Why will you bow to me?" I ask her confused and looking around, everyone has become silent and was watching us
The air became really weird and I became uncomfortable.
"You are a property of the Alpha so I have to bow." Thelma explains, this time looking at me but not straight to the eyes
"I am NOBODY'S property" I clarify for her while extending the Nobody.
At that point, my appetite has gone and even the strawberry flavored ice cream has lost its pink appeal.
Angrily, I stomp out of there.
Just as I step out, I collide into someone.
What's with me and colliding into people these days? I mentally facepalm.
I look up and it's a woman.
She's pretty, really beautiful but she is obviously a werewolf.
She apologizes first but to my surprise not sincerely.
"Sorry I wasn't looking. Hope you didn't get hurt because I'm obviously stronger than an average human."
"What?" My mood kind of improved after hearing her sorry at first but hearing the last part of her apology gave me a rethink.
I was already in a bad mood.
"I said human? Are you hurt? I'm a werewolf so you could have died even from a push from me." She continues with a demeaning smile
My anger from before is refueled
"Who the fuck are you to talk to me like that?...” I ask her while taking a step towards her
"I don't even know who a twerp like you is. Do you want to know something?" I ask her, my anger slowly reaching boiling point
"I don't want to know anything a human tells me." She replies
"I'll still tell you anyway. Me not knowing who you are means you're a nobody in this community. At least everybody knows me as a human in a werewolf community. Who the fuck might you be?" I ask her finally not so politely
And shoulder bumped her as I walk away.
She speaks up behind me but I don't stop walking anyway.
"I don't know how a weakling like you can be our Alpha's Mate." She yells at me from behind..
So that was what it is about. That I'm his mate?
It's not even like I chose to be his mate.
This is so fucking frustrating.
I sigh and continue the walk home.
*Damien*
That shithead refused to follow me home? To my quarters?
What damn audacity.
"You should stop pacing and think rationally." Adam speaks from behind me while he is reclining in a chair
"No. She refused to follow me even after knowing she is my mate."
"Would you follow just anybody who calls herself your mate?" Adam asks me
"Of course not. I can smell may mate for a mile." Like he is asking me a stupid question
"Exactly. But she is human. She can not smell you like you can do her." Adam clarifies
But rather than understanding the fact, another thing in his sentence riles me up.
"HUMAN. FUCKING, DAMNING, WEAK HUMAN!" I yell and smash my hand on a table causing the furniture to shatter into irreparable pieces.
"..." Adam simply sighs and says nothing more.
He knows me well. Anything he says now might be the factor of destruction.
The reason why I will angrily destroy more things.
*Crystal*
Still dangerously angry, I stomp into my apartment.
"What's got you angry again now?" Ariel asks me without even looking up.
"A lot of things." I manage to say before I totally burst.
Good thing I left there earlier before my anger clouds my judgement and get into a fight with a werewolf.
Because obviously the werewolves will take sides with their kind against a human.
And worse, a female werewolf. They fight the dirtiest.
I learnt from experience. I'll never do that again.
The Moon Goddess help me.
"Wanna share?" Ariel finally asks
"First..."
"First?"
"Yes. And don't interrupt."
"Fine...Luna." Ariel teases
"Don't." I simply say deflated. I fall on the lounger in the room and lean my back, tired.
For about ten minutes we don't say anything to each other.
Suddenly, I speak up.
"I'm going to Reject Damien."
"Damien... WHAT?!" Ariel exclaims
"And I'm doing it now."
I can't stand being teased or insulted for something I didn't ask for. It all ends tonight.
"You can come along...Or not." I say to Ariel before standing up and heading out.
I guess her curiosity got the better of her because she decided to come along. Just not right beside me. She was definitely hesitatant about it and as soon as we reached the house pack, the guards there stop us.
"Who are you and your business?" One of the burly ones ask me directly.
Just then Ariel reaches my side and speaks up.
"We're here to see Alpha..."
"Your business?" He asks again, looking between both of us now
"My friend here is his mate and probably the future Luna" Ariel told them.
She definitely knows how to make a human angry. Did she have to say it that way? I glare at her for using the M word like it was necessary.
The guard pause for few minutes and kept looking back and forth between us like he wants to smell our deceit. Finally, he lets us in.
Word must have spread around because we didn't encounter any other obstacle but only got directions to the Alpha's quarters.
I stop at the door to take a deep breath.
"Go in." Ariel nudges me
"Aren't you coming along?" I ask her apprehensively.
"Of course not. It's like your personal time." She clarifies and smiles at me with an encouraging face.
I raise my hand to knowck but then he spoke from inside.
"Just open the door." He spoke rudely from inside. I scrunch up my face in disgust and go into the room.
I have to admit, he has a nice room and ready to be laid on bed.
Jeez.
What the fuck am I thinking of?!
"What do you want?" He asked me in a beat up voice
I get my confidence and voice back after noting a thousand and one reasons why can't I live with this man. Or wolf literally.
"I'm here for one reason."
"I won't ask you why unless you say it yourself so continue." He interrpus me
Jeez. I detest being interrupted.
"I will talk if you don't interrupt me."
I can feel my anger begin to flare again.
He doesn't say anything but I can feel those eyes on me.
"Before you interrupt, I am here to reject you."
After saying the word reject. It felt like something was shaking in me. Like I was standing on thin frozen ice.
Alpha Damien's eyes turn into slits at my words but he stays there on the edge of the bed, still looking at me without saying a word.
And the fact that he is not even talking is more infuriating. Fine then. I'll just do what I have to do and make my leave after successfully severing our bond.
"I Crystal-" I started to say when I was interrupted not in a nice manner.
Damien suddenly gets up from the bed and in a second, I was pinned to the wall with his right hand holding both my hands hostage above my head.
"And you think I will let you? Without a fight?" He growls out his words with his warm breath fanning my face.
Alpha Damien lowers his face till his face is wandering too close for comfort on mine.
"I won't let you." He mutters and let's his lips fall on mine.
I froze.
Chapter 6*Crystal*Alpha Damien slams his lips on mine in one breathtaking moment. For a minute I'm lost just savoring his oh so soft and manly lips.He releases my hands from above my head and pushes me to the bed. That ready to be laid on bed from earlier.I hit the bed and bounce back up for a split second and Damien falls right above me. Shifting his weight so he's not suffocating me, he leans down again and kiss me. This time with his hands in my hair and the steam in the air from our bodies.Moon!He knows just how to twist and turn his lips to pleasure a woman and how to disengage leaving me high and dry...WHAT?!He simply took his lips off mine and pushed me away to the end of the bed.I think I was just deceived."You think I'll let you reject me?"Ah. That's it."You are a mere human. You rejecting me? An Alpha rejected by a mere human. The audacity you have." He breathes out without even looking at me."I Crystal Lucario..." I start again with my anger at full boiling po
Chapter 7"Don't you dare call me small and weak because I'm human. We are the normal species. What are you? Man and Wolf?" She spat with so much venom.If I didn't know she is human, I'd have thought she is a snake demon with all her venomous words.I give Adam a look that spoke volumes. The I Told You So kind of look. He understood immediately and just stood at a corner watching the human vent away.*Crystal* He isn't listening to me nor is he saying a word. I think for a fact he likes me being this way, frustrated and angry.Not that I know anything about mates but gathering from what Ariel told me Mates are nothing like Damien. But what kind did I end up with? If I should say myself, I'll say he's the worst. An Alpha that locks his mate up and teases her in bed.Not that I minded the kiss...What the fuck am I thinking now? I mentally facepalm.My eyes scan the table and I smirked when they landed on the filled glass of alcohol beside the balls. Imagine how much satisfaction
Chapter 7. But I have to admit, him running his fingers through his hair is kinda cute and I couldn't stop myself from staring at his well musculated arms. "Are you done lusting after my body now"He suddenly growled with a teasing voice I snorted, very unladylike I have to admit "You wish" I blush a little although knowing it's a lie I could watch his body flex and all those muscle mass contracting and coming together for an entire day. The water I poured on him made his shirt stick to his body and it is OH MY MOON. I can literally see the chiseled body beneath the shirt. He is going to be the death of me but I won't ever show it until I get what I want. "I know am a piece of chocolate but eye fucking me isn't going to do you any good" He replies arrogantly. "First of all, I'm not a big fan of chocolate but If that makes you sleep well at night. Now get on with that offer thing"I said a bit desperately. Fuck Bit. Very desperately and impatiently. "Look I am an Alpha as you kno
*Crystal* I woke up the next morning feeling really comfortable. The bed was soft and heavenly, a total and very welcome difference from the one I had back at my apartment. I almost thought I was in heaven cause I hadn't slept in something that soft. And bouncy too. Wonder what it'll feel like to have sex in that bed. So early in the damn morning and I already have crazy thoughts. It's obviously going to be a very crazy day. I put on my clogs and unlock the door. I walk down the corridor which I think leads to Damien's room. I was getting fiercely dragged yesterday so I didn't really pay attention to the road where the guards took to Damien's room. I really need to see Ariel and in order to see her I need to speak to Damien, my captor and take permission. Fuck him. I stop in front of a familiar door and knock a few times before his deep arrogant and unmistakable voice ordered me to leave. I could have sworn I had only one condition last night and it was that I asked him to trea
*Damien*Few Days later....Part of me does not totally agree with her attending Fang and If it was up to me I wouldn't let her go there but I think she really needs it.The world of the wolves is a tough place and she has to be a tough woman to make her way. For someone like her who has no fear to speak her mind, all she needs is the strength to back her words up. Anyway, my men are going to keep an eye on her so I should stop worrying about her.Why am I even worrying about her in the first place?She hasn't said a word ever since she got into the car. I guess she's just nervous as her hands are shaking in her laps. Human nervousness is kind of cute. There are a lot of things about her that I find cute anyway. The way she runs her hands through the back of her neck too only makes me want to pin her to the walls at times and she does it an awful lot of times which makes me want to take her to my bed an awful lot of times.What am I thinking?!I drive into the parking lot and parked t
*Damien*As the owner of the FA, I have to go there on a weekly basis and today it was not purely because I had to go for work. That girl's been bugging me as well but the more I tried to keep her from my head, the more she kept coming back into my mind and guess what? My wolf isn't helping matters so I decided to see her at school.But.But right now I wish I had stayed back so I wouldn't have to witness what is going on right now.My wolf growled again, wildly this time at the sight of our mate in another guy's arm.Ian of Slits pack. He's an upcoming Alpha and I won't have my mate being anywhere around him. I growl fiercely at him and he backs off, immediately turning around and walking away with a knowing expression on his face.Hm."Good thing he knows who the boss is now." My Wolf boasted within meI stalk over to her."What did you do? You scared him away." She rolled her eyes at me. She seems to do that a lot whenever she is with me. I glare at her as I smell his scent on her.
Right in between my eyes, I could already see the spear connect and my brains spill out at the back where the tip comes out. But suddenly, someone is pulling me down and we both land in a messy heap. Thankfully, it's Ariel. Thank goodness for werewolf instincts. I would have just died right there and nobody except Ariel will mourn my death because my death meant everlasting freedom for Damien and that is something I don't want to give to him. But thanks to Ariel, neither will I die or give him freedom. We both cough and get up from the floor. "Thanks" That has to be the most sincere thanks I ever said. "See what am talking about? It war ground is too dangerous" She muttered under her breathe but jus loud enough for me to hear. She tries to leave but I drag her back. I faced death already. Can it get any worse? As we both walk into the big training yard, few gigantic wolves were walking around while some were shifting as Ian had once told me. My eyes widen at the sight of human
"You wish." He snickers."What makes you think of yourself so big infact, I've seen bigger" Just my uncontrollable mouth saying what it always regrets not long after the words come out..."Duh. You don't need to lie. I'd accept it if that makes you sleep at night" I could imagine vividly the smirk on his face."Aren't you done yet?""I'm done virgin. I'm waiting for you to finish blushing and turn to face me.""So fast?""How long do you take to dress?" He responds sarcastically"While you were busy drooling at my beautifully made body, I mind linked someone to bring me clothes" He explained casually as if it was nothing while buttoning up"What's mind linking" I ask. It's not wrong to be curious at times.Almost like he remembered something, his eyes cloud over and that sinister look comes into his face. I unconsciously take a step back."Why did you go to the training yard" I was so taken aback that I subconsciously wondered where the teasing Damien went to in a matter of seconds.
*Crystal*The next day, I walk into the school with Ariel by my side. I couldn't stop smiling the whole time and Ariel wouldn't stop teasing me about Damien and the make out session after I told her.Well, I just couldn't keep it to myself. It's was bursting in me."Hi there ladies" Ian says in way of greeting and blocks us from walking further."Ian?" Ariel laughs, shaking her head at him."You know him?" I ask, totally surprised."She's my sister! You didn't tell me Crystal is that steaming hot friend you've been telling me about.""Step sister." Ariel corrects, rolling her eyes at him playfully. "And she's taken.""Yeah, trust me, I know that very clearly. If looks could kill, Alpha Damien would have my head on a platter right now." Ian laughs as if it was nothing before putting his arms around mine and Ariel's shoulders and walks us inside."Thought you'd never want to come to F.A." He asks, cocking his head to the side to see Ariel."Just shut up will you..." I laugh at the both
Damien Come to think of it, Crystal was right when she said I didn't talk to her with respect maybe if I do she'd be submissive towards me which I see happening earlier and to my utter shock I can't stop thinking about the kiss we shared.I mentally facepalms. I really need to stay focused. I can't let myself be clouded or distracted by some illusion. I don't believe in love or anything stupid like that, love just brings problem and pain, once again, nothing more than a stupid illusion.I burst into Lola's room. She looks startled when she lays her eyes on me because I have never come into her room, I just request for her each time I want her."Damien!..." She exclaims in a fake high pitched voice. "...You must have miss me so much for you to be here in my room" She purrs. "I missed you too baby" she stands up and tries to touch me."What did you do to Crystal?" I hissed slapping her hands away off me. A look of hurt crosses her face but she quickly masks it."So your supposed mate
*Crystal*His eyes darted to my lips and slowly he lowered his head to mine and kissed me and this time I kissed him back.Things got really heated as we both began to kiss passionately as if we'd been kiss starved. I don't care if I had said I never wanted any physical relationship with Damien but with him kissing me like this, I was boneless in his arms while kissing him back.He laid me back on the bed, still he didn't stop kissing me and I am excited that he didn't stop kissing me. I ran my hand through his hair pulling him closer to myself, like I want him to stay glued to me.He broke off the kiss from my lips, I groan at the loss of physical touch but he started kissing me, starting from my forehead then my nose, my lips again and then my neck. He sucks on a sensitive spot on the skin of my neck, kissing and pulling it at the same time."Damien-" I couldn't stop myself from moaning loudly. I never felt this way in my entire life and my whole body was racing and throbbing in exc
"You could have knocked. What if Damien and I are making out?" I blurted but quickly covered my mouth.Ariel just laughed. "Well good thing you're not because I am not sure I want to witness my best friend being screwed by her mate"."Hahaha very funny" Sarcastically, I rolled my eyes and gasp when a saw a bite on her neck. It looked as if an animal had bitten her. Slowly, understanding crossed my face.I can't believe Adam bit her!"Ariel! Is Adam hitting you, physically abusing you?" I asked staring at her dead in the eyes."Uhm" She look startled. "What made you think that?""Don't lie to me Ariel! Look at your neck for the love of the moon! That animal bit you" I particular yelled. I saw Ariel wince and calmed down a little."Adam is not an animal!" She growled "Sorry that was my wolf. She's very protective of Adam" She giggled, back to being the Ariel I know."Okay I am lost" I admitted. "You said he didn't bite you? Then how did you get the wound?""Its just a mark! It would fad
"You wish." He snickers."What makes you think of yourself so big infact, I've seen bigger" Just my uncontrollable mouth saying what it always regrets not long after the words come out..."Duh. You don't need to lie. I'd accept it if that makes you sleep at night" I could imagine vividly the smirk on his face."Aren't you done yet?""I'm done virgin. I'm waiting for you to finish blushing and turn to face me.""So fast?""How long do you take to dress?"
