Chapter 96

Claire's POV

"Are you afraid of me?" he asks but more demands

I wince at the question

"no alpha" I tell him, fear and excitement battle in my chest and mind

"I told you not to lie to me" he says softer but still harsh

"I'm sorry alp-"

"Martin" he says and I meet his eye "don't call me Alpha, at least while we're alone...for now" he says and I nod slowly, confusion being the main thing I feel when he speaks

"Now I'll ask you again" his voice is a whisper now and his head moves lower to me

"do you fear me?"

I place my hands by the wall to keep me from touching his hair and look up into his eyes

"you intimidate me" I tell him, which is true

He smirks a little

"what's so intimidating?" He asks

My grey eyes widen and I search his face, I raise an eyebrow and tilt my head

"everything about you" I spit out before I have time to think5

He frowns at my words and a second later backs away from me, at first I think it's because of me so I begin to apologise but then I hear the door open. Bever
