THE JILTED LUNA

Obsessed

His eyes were glowing, alternating between sparkling yellow, dark black, and normal. With his hand still on the door and his face hard as stone, he scanned the room in one big sweep like he was looking for something. When his eyes landed on me, I saw his face turn harder and his eyes became dark black. He strode into the room towards me. I was mesmerized, his scent was overwhelming and his beauty left me speechless. He strode into the room like he owned the place and stood few inches from me. He closed his eyes for a minute and took inhaled deeply. He then opened then with renewed determination and eyes even darker and took huge strides towards me.

"Come with me now!" His voice was stern and alpha. Everyone else in the room bowed in respect. However, to me the voice was not commanding. It was an alpha voice and I knew it was his wolf speaking but instead of cowering like I usually do, I found myself feeling stronger, stubborn and more courageous. I stood up and looked deep into his dark eyes.

"And who are you to command me!" I answered.

I could not believe I just said that and more so to an alpha. My answer seemed to agitate him and surprise him at the same time. I saw a smile try to break and his eyes turned sparkling yellow for a second and then back to dark. In a swift, my hand was taken and I was dragged out of the room.

I followed him like sheep heading to the slaughterhouse. He took me deeper into the forest away from civilization, away from other scents.

After what felt like forever, he suddenly stood in the middle of a clearing. He let go my hand and walked a distance from me. I saw him have a mental fight and I knew what was happening, he was trying to take back control from his wolf. When he finally turned back to me, his eye color was a mesmerizing sky blue. His face was no longer stern and I couldn't look away. He took careful steps towards me and Maria was doing somersaults in my head. She kept screaming "mate, mate, mate."

"Sorry," He said.

I almost did not hear him, I was gazing, lost in his blue eyes and engulfed in his scent. He waved to get my attention...

"Hello... Are you alright?"

"What.. who.. me?" I startled. "Yes, I am okay. You were saying?"

"I apologize for dragging you into the woods. I am not a creep, I just had to step away from the noise or Arthur would have lost control."

"What.. Who?" I was confused. Why was he referring to him in third person? Then I caught on, he was referring to his wolf. "Arthur, such a sweet name" I heard Maria say in my head.

"Oh, its alright." I said as I forced a smile.

"I am Channing" The stranger told me his name and I thought, as sweet as the
