ALPHA KING'S BOOKWORM LUNA

8

AMARIS

I slowly opened my eyes. My throat feels dry and there is pounding in my head. I looked around me and saw an unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying down is enormous.

Where am I?

Just then, the door opened and Draven come inside with a doctor.

Wait? Am I in the hospital?

"Luna your awake," the doctor said looking at me.

Luna?

Who's Luna? Im Amaris.

"Amaris.How are you feeling now?" Draven rushed to my side taking my left hand to his, placing a feather - light kiss on the back of it. I blushed at his gesture.

"Water. I want water."

He took the glass of water from the bedside table and lift it near my lips. I took it from him and sip a little before gulping it to quench my thirst.

"Alpha, I will take my leave now that the Luna has awaken. I will come back tomorrow to perform some test and to check on her," the doctor said before bowing down towards Draven and then at me, "Luna," before exiting the room.

Draven took the glass from my hands and put it back down on the table.

"Thank the Moon Goddess you're awake my Luna," Draven let out a sigh of relief.

"Where am I?" I once again look around at the room we are in.

"You are already back at our home, my Luna. This is our bedroom," he said to me after a few moment. His expressions are mixed-up but the astonishment is much more evident also from his tone.

"This is not a good joke, Draven." I freed myself from the confinement of the bed and slowly stretched-out my arms and legs. I dont feel anything aching but I feel week.

"YOU'RE MINE," he growled at me, the color of his eyes turning black from its dark hazel color.

I stand shocked and unable to speak, just looking at him with wide eyes.

"YOU BELONG TO NO ONE BUT ME," He said sternly, trying to calm himself down by breathing deeply.

Then it clicked my mind. I narrowed my eyes at him and laughed hard when I couldn't take it anymore.

"Wow! J-j-just wow!" I managed to say in between laughs.

"So, the great Draven Blackwood is also reading books about werewolves," I teased him when I finally calm down from laughing. The smirk on my face is threatening to broke out into a laugh again. Well, who thinks that this man who barely smiles is also into fictional books? I really can't believe it. And worse, he's acting strangely like that of a possesive werewolf mate.

I looked at him again and his face is stern, like he is trying to search his thoughts of something.

"My Luna, its better for you to lie down again and take more rest."

"So, you really wanted to keep on acting like these? Okay then, I'll grace you with it," I walked towards him until we are only one step apart from each other, "my Alpha," I said and burst out laughing again, holding my stomach for the record. I haven't laughed this hard for so long ever since my parents died.

He stood still, watching me.

When I feel tired from laughing too much, I sit on the edge of the bed while trying to remember what had happened.

"I need to go now Maycee. Im home already. Just drop by later okay." I told her.

I put my phone back in my bag and reach for my wallet, taking a bill and handing it to the driver without giving a glance.

"Umh, here's the mo-" I was caught of guard when I saw his eyes from the mirror.

My eyes grew wide and my jaw dropped. The bill that I was holding also fall out of my fingers.

Uh-oh!

Not again Amaris.

You better be dead.

The driver is no other than Draven Blackwood himself.

"How?What?" I tried to rake my brain for words but they seem to left me.

What is he doing here in the cab? Why was he driving one?

I take a look at the car's interior and was shocked when I saw its a very clean and sparkly black and blue design. Not the usual cab that Im used to riding. My eyes were glued at the B logo on the steering wheel. I bit my lower lip and turn to him, "I-i-im sorry Mr. Blackwood, I thought its a cab."

He chuckled and it made me blush more that I can feel my neck is also hot with embarrasment.

"A dog,huh!" he said while looking at me in the mirror.

I dont know what to say and I hate how my body and mind coordinates with each other at this moment deciding not to let me think and move.

"You could have just tell me that you thought I am attractive you know. Just like how I think you are too," he teased me with a smirk on his face but his eyes turning darker even more.

"I-i- im not attracted to you." I spat at him, finally garnering my sanity.

"Yeah, you look good but it doesn't mean that Im attracted to you. And Im really sorry for having mistaken for you to be a taxi cab. Im just pre- occupied."

I tried to compose myself, not wanting to give away myself again.

"Thank you for taking me home," I said before storming out of his car and started walking towards the house.

"Amaris, look Im sorry" I heard him shout behind me.

I stop to face him and he's already near me.

"I didn't mean to be rude to you okay. But im happy to have heard what I had heard in the car," he looks serious. His one hand on his pocket and the other one on his hair, and oh boy, Im so lost.

"Amaris," he take some steps towards me until he is already a breath away from me, "I-i-i, you look so gorgeous, I like you!" he said nervously.

My lips parted voluntarily as the information is slowly sinking on my mind. I look at his eyes and played a staring game with him. When his gaze moved down, mine did too, and the way his Adams apple moved when he gulped is so tormently arousing that I had to bit my lip to prevent the moan that wanted to come out of my throat.

In a snap of second, I felt something touching my lips.

HE IS KISSING ME!

My eyes grew wide at the realization.

What the -----!!!!

How, why, what???

His lips is so soft, even softer than mine I think.

AMARIS!

But Im fighting the urge to kiss him back. I pushed him at the chest and angrily hissed at him.

"How dare you kiss me like that," I glared at him before turning and entering the door, shutting it on his face. I put my hands on my chest to calm my heart down.

The following day when I go to work, I tried to avoid him and thankfully he has meeting outside the company thats why I was able to concentrate for my first project, to plan for a new promotional marketing for the company with the marketing team.

But during the presentation, he made some actions to piss me off. And when I was at the lobby on my way out for home, I felt a sudden pain and was so dizzy that I fainted.

And to woke up with all this acting from Draven is unbearable.

He's just watching me from his place.

"Please take me home now, I want to rest." But he did not move.

"Draven-" but I was cut-off by his loud growl. What's with him growling so loud. I even have goosebumps all over me.

"Say that name again and I will have him killed right at this moment," he is gritting his teeth, his eyes are pitch black now and I wonder how could that be.

"But how am I suppose to call you? " Im getting pissed off at him again.

"I dont know what happened to you that you are acting strangely like this, but I will make sure that they will all suffer for doing this, my Luna" he strode over me and said in a calm voice while carresing my right cheeks with the back of his hand again.

I rolled my eyes again at his antics.

"Right. Now please my Alpha, take me home because I badly wanted a rest and I want to think straight." I tried to push him away but he growled at me and hugged me tight.

"Draven please," I begged him but I suddenly felt something pricked my neck that had me feeling a little pain but also bring electrifying shocks and tingles running all throughout my body and to my core.

"What the hell," I pushed him as hard as I can and when I succeeded to pry away from him, I saw him slowly transforming into something.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!" I screamed at the top of my lungs when I saw a large black wolf in front of me who happened to be Draven a while ago.

I felt my blood drained from my head and lost consciousness again.
