The Alpha Assassin

23

After trying effortlessly to free herself from his tight grip and no much improvement, Clara tried the easy way out. Which was waking him up to let go of his strong grips on her back. Though it was cute and all but it was beginning to hurt and she was really pressed at the moment.

"Liam...Liam? Liam. Wake up it's morning"

"Hmm" Liam said still holding on to her

"Wake up it's morning"

"Just five more minutes" He said sleepy eyed

"Hey.. Wake up" Clara yelled

"Come on, don't ruin this moment"

"Shameless, well I've got to do number 1. Or would you prefer I get on with it here with you?"

"Sure I wouldn't mind"

Clara hit him on his head and he let go immediately.

"Ouch, Clara come on you are a party pooper" Liam said sulking

"Haha I'd prefer that than being termed a bed wetter a day after my 19th birthday"

"Silly you"

Clara ran out to help herself and Liam couldn't stop smiling and looking at her with eyes of love.

She came back washed her body in a small body of water beside the cave and changed into her outfit the only one she came with the previous night. The only difference this time was she let her hair loose.

While liam wore his clothes as well and they headed back

"Clara its time to close your eyes again"

"No I want to walk back with you"

"It might take all day if we walk back as humans would"

"Yeah when am tired you'll carry me back"

"Fine" Liam said holding on to Clara as they walked side my side.

"Wow!!! Since we arrived at night to this place though it was beautiful, but now during the day, the rays of the sun made it more and more Pretty Liam. Look at that she said pointing to a kangaroo, wait a minute is that a horse?"

"Yes it sure is, want to have a ride?"

"Can I?" Clara asked

"Of course you can. Like I said anything you want since you are here why not?"

"Liam whistled and the horse raced to them"

"Is it yours? What is its name?"

"Bella, it was given to me by my mom, so I brought her here so she can run freely in the wild."

"Do you have another?"

"Yeah, its in the stables far behind our room"

"Okay come on let's go, I want to feel the wind in my hair."

Liam helped her climb into the horse and he climbed behind her and they began horse riding.

"Wow!! I love this feeling of being on top of a horse, I have never been on one before thank you for making me experience new things for the first time"

"Sure anything for you dear"

So they rode on Bella, after a while they came down.

"Thank you Liam, I enjoyed the ride"

"Yeah, am glad you like it"

"So tell me, how did you know about this place?"

"Are you sure you want to know?" Liam asked

"Yeah" Clara nodded affirmative

"No matter how scary it is?" Liam asked again to be fully sure she is truly ready to want to listen to what he has to say.

"Yeah" Clara replied again this time with all curiosity

"Well I was born a werewolf, as you know half wolf, half man. Later known as the next alpha. And then my first shift happened when I was just ten and my shape shifting was extraordinary so my dad the last Alpha brought me here away from the eyes of the elders. He said I had extraordinary powers and if the elders saw it, some would want to steal my powers for themselves so this was where I had my first shape shifting so whenever I come here, I feel so alive Clara and I feel at home. I feel like my dad is with me, I feel connected to this place and I have never brought anyone here before well except for Eric my childhood friend and Beta other than that no one, not even my sister. You are the only female and only one asides from Eric"

"Whoa! Why then did you bring me here? To this special place of yours that even your younger sister hasn't been to?"

"Because Clara you are an important and a special part of me"

"But why Liam, would you bring me here?"

"Clara like I told you, you won't understand it. Whenever I am with you I feel like I can be free. I want to be able to be by your side every minute."

This revelation made Clara blush so much.

Truth was she is so in love with Liam, but just as she had made up her mind, she will make it really hard for him to get him.

"Come on Clara I can feel you love me too"

This took her by surprise but she said nothing to either accept that she was or wasn't in love with him so he became nervous. The only thing she did was to distract him by pointing to a monkey, that way she won't have to disclose anything about what she was feeling at the moment.

Seeing that, Liam was somewhat down that she was purposely ignoring him, he held both her hands. She looked down not meeting his gaze, he held her face and tilted it upwards to look him in his eyes and said.

"Clara don't push this aside I really do love you"

"I.. I ...Just can't deal with all of this rig...."

"Shh not another word, don't say something you don't mean Clara. I won't rush you I'll wait for you even if it means waiting forever but please do something for me. Don't ever ignore me dear I can't bear it"

"Liam just stop"

"Why Clara I am being truthful to you, sweetheart please don't treat me like a stranger. Cause I won't be able to bear it I mean it"

"What do you mean by that, have I ever ignored you?" Clara asked with all seriousness and confused, because she had no idea when she had ignored him.

"Yes Love, you did"

"When was that?" Clara asked

"When you newly found out about me Clara you shut me out. I couldn't sleep I just kept looking at your pictures on my phone for weeks you avoided me Clara. For close to three weeks it was the most crucial moment for Cole and I, we couldn't bear it. I wanted to end it all, when you called me a monster Clara. You are our happiness and you are the only one who could make us either sad or happy. So please don't ever let me go through all that again, please Clara."

"Liam am really sorry, I do love you but I can't seem to adjust to all this Luna and mate of a thing okay?"

"I won't push it Clara, I won't force you to accept that fact, but just know that I love you for who you are and our mate bond is so strong, I will wait for you Clara regardless of how long it takes"

"Let's go back I am tired Liam" Clara said

So in one swoop liam carried her the usual way (bridal style) and then she closed her eyes in less than a minute they arrived back at the town. And they both headed for their room.
