Veronica "Female!" an angry voice growled in the passage,from the sound of it. The owner of the voice was heading towards my room. More like my escape room. I should have known that he would find me after the stunt i had pulled. Not that it was my fault,the man was infuriating,obnoxious,arrogant and egotistic. I hated men with those traits because they will do anything to maintain those traits. And i was trapped with one. I had woken up in a strange,unfamiliar but beautiful room. Thats when i had remembered going to work with my two best friends Sienna and Monique. And three gorgeous guys had walked in into the restaurant. I had been speechless with their looks and one of the guys had managed to trap me in an eye lock that i could not escape. Unbelievable. My body had felt like electricity was passing through it. At last i had managed to set myself free from the intense eye lock and quickly looked around to see where my friends were. I had wanted to scold them for not coming to my rescue when i had been trapped in that eye lock. I hadn't looked for long,my friends had been standing and starring at the three men too. Clearly they had been having their own problems with the intense eye locks. What's up with that?. Thank f**k i had not been the one to take their orders. It had been Sienna's problem. When we had finished our work, i remember we had been followed and considering the three of us being badass, knowing how to fight,use knives even swords,guns,every weapon we could find even bows and arrows. And to top the icing we knew about the supernatural beings that lived amongst us. Vampires,witches,werewolves and everything in-between. We had been pretty sure that whoever had been following us was going to regret it. Obviously they did not regret anything considering i was the one who had been knocked out and kidnapped. Dont get me wrong i had kicked some ass pretty badly considering they were not human but they still managed to get me. I hope my friends were okay. "Female!" The voice growled again. I could tell he was almost to the door. Why he called me female was beyond me but i was pretty sure he was doing it just to annoy me. I mean i have boobs,hips and an ass huge enough to not be mistaken to be a man. But why did the alpha king insist on calling me female. I had told him a million times that my name was Veronica. Okay maybe not a million times but certainly enough for it to catch on. And he was not obtuse. Probably being deliberately obtuse just to annoy me further. Who am i kidding,ofcourse he is obtuse. All men are. I know im rumbling in my head because im trying to avoid thinking about the issue. Yeah the issue about why the alpha king was bellowing my name. Anyone could tell that he was angry and with good reason too. I had woken up in his bed and freaked out when he told me that i was his mate and he had kidnapped me. As if he had not dropped a bombshell on me much less ask if i agreed with him. Arrogant men! He had asked someone to bring me food and water. The food did not take long to appear. I was hungry but i was angry with him more. How dare he dictate my life as if i belonged to him. As soon as the tray was placed next to me,i had scooped the bowl with some kind of porridge and thrown it at the alpha 's head. I missed his head. The bowl and its contents successfully hit him on his broad shoulder thou and the porridge fell all over his clothes. I had felt satisfied judging by the look he had on his face,i had caught him off guard and the maid who had served me the food had started shaking badly and her eyes had looked like they were about to budge out of her head. She had eventually fallen on her knees with fear. Quite dramatic if you ask me. I know i should not have wasted food like that,much less throw it at someone considering i knew what real hunger felt like but i had been angry and i wanted to faze the alpha for a bit and remove that controlling,stoic expression he had on his face. I had thought of throwing my bracelet at his head and then thought of how expensive and precious it was to me. And i didn't have any of my weapons with me. So the porridge had been the next best thing. And when i had noticed his expression turn from shock to fury,my survival instincts had kicked in. I had leaped off the bed and through out the door before he knew what was happening. Deep down i knew he wouldn't hurt me,physically at least. But better safe than sorry right. After all he had kidnapped me. "Female!" He barked again. And immediately the door flies open as if it had been kicked. But that could not be right because if it had been kicked it would have flew out of its hinges. "Female!" "What?" I snapped looking towards the door. Noticing that he was now inside the room. Almost to the bed. How had manage to get so close?. Clearly i had been lost inside my head again. Considering i had not heard him walk into the room. And my hearing was quite good even when im distracted. "Don't snap at me woman!" He bellowed. I swear i could see smoke coming from his ears. Was he going to burst a vassal or something. "My name is Veronica. Not woman or female!." "I can call you whatever you i like." He snapped at me. "And what was that childish tantrum you just pulled?" How dare he call me childish? And tantrums? I didn't throw any tantrums ever. Okay maybe the food throwing had been childish and a bit like a tantrum. But i would be damned if i admitted that or apologize for it. Oh screw it. I am allowed to throw childish tantrums. This man had kidnapped me and he had no right to scold me at however i react to the situation he put me in. "You should thank your stars that im not screaming your head off or running outside naked." I said with the previous anger returning. "You know, since its what children do when they throw some of their tantrums." A few moments of silence pass after i had said that. And we were starring each other off. I could feel the menace coming from him. I swear his hands twitched a bit. Maybe he had the urge to strangle me. If he was this easy to piss off, things were going to be interesting for the next few days. "Chico bring it in!." He barks. Okay who or what is Chico? And what did he want to bring in. Did i manage to anger him so much that he had finally snapped and decided he would end me here and now. My heart broke for my friends. They would never know who took me. Much less know that i had been killed. A sound drew me out of my thoughts and i looked up and saw the maid from earlier holding another tray with food. It was filled with strawberry pastries, apples ,french fries with chicken and orange juice. No porridge this time. And the food smelled divine. My stomach growled as if it agreed. "No porridge this time." I couldn't help but jab a little. And my comment was met with a glare from the Alpha. "Who is Chico?" I continued. Deciding not to poke him further about the porridge thing. A girl needed to time her attacks right. "She is Chico." He said pointing to the maid who had her head down and still holding the food tray. "And she is your personal assistant." "Personal assistant?" I asked. Trying to understand what he meant because this was no office and i definitely did not want any personal assistants. "You mean my personal maid?" "Personal assistant, maid, servant. Same difference." He snapped. He was clearly still angry. And it was not the same difference. There was a reason why those titles get used at different places. But rather than comment and rage the bull further. I sealed my lips shut and continued to stare at him. I could tell that i had surprised him again,a bit at least. He had been obviously waiting for one of my childish responses and i had managed to shut my mouth. Indicating that i can be a reasonable adult too. Yeey i cheered inside my head but managed to keep a serious face. If the Alpha thought that he would be able to figure me out easily. He had another think coming because i was not going to make it easy. I would drive him insane, until he lets me go on his own or if i manage to find my way out of here. Either way it will be a win win situation for me. "Eat!" He barked. "Im not hungry." I lied. "Female, i can hear your stomach growl from over here. Now eat quietly and rid of those embarrassing sounds coming from your stomach." How dare he? He really does know how to piss me off. But rather start an argument again. I simply said, "No." In a few strides he was next to me and he had me in a choke hold. He was not hurting me but i had been so startled by that move that my hands had started thrashing and beating off his hands. More like trying to. But he was strong, he held on. And my pathetic attempts to get free were not working at all. "You will eat now female. Don't test me. Im already angry enough." He growled to my face. I tried to open my mouth so that i could tell him where to shove his food. He cannot order me to eat. I would eat when i was good and ready. "Not another word from you. Chico bring the tray over here." He directed that last part to the maid who was still standing inside the room holding the tray. She quickly jumped up and placed the tray on the bed next to the both of us and hurriedly went out of the room. As if there was a hellhound hot on her heels. Unbelievable. The alpha picked a few french fries and put them inside my mouth. Thou forceful, he was gentle. I had no choice but to start chewing the food in my mouth. He continued to force feed me. Half of the food was done after a few minutes and he started feeding me the strawberry pastries. For desert i guess and they tasted so good. I resisted to moan out loud from enjoyment. Didn't want the Alpha to think that i was moaning out loud because he was touching me. Dont go there Onic. You have managed to not think about how his hand on your neck is making you feel. And how intimate the whole setting is. Remember he is a werewolf. And they have incredible hearing and sense of smell. Wouldn't want the alpha to pick up on your arousal. And he kidnapped you. Think of unicorns. Better yet pink unicorns with rainbow blood. Yep im weird and twisted like that. "Now that wasn't so hard was it?" The alpha asked in a deep voice. Startling me out of my weird pink unicorn thoughts. "Alph...." "My name is Lysander." He rudely interrupts me. "And im not your Alpha. Im your other half. Your one and only mate. Never will you call me Alpha again!." "Alph....." "Lysander!" He snaps at me. His anger coming back in full force. Not to mention he was still holding me in a choke hold that had tightened a bit. It still didn't hurt thou. "Sorry. Lysander." I said softly. And he loosened the hold a bit but still didn't let me go. "Why do you keep calling me your mate? Im not your mate. I don't want to be your mate. I wanna go back to friends." He tightens the hold again and this time its a bit painful. But i like it. My whole body feels electrified. The good kind. What kind of shenanigan was this? How could i like the way he was touching me? I wasn't his to touch. He pulls me closer to him and im forced to place my right hand on his chest for balance. His broad chest. Oh God! I could even feel the packs he was packing through the shirt he was wearing. Our faces were close to each other. We were separated by three or four inches max. Please dont let him kiss me. I prayed to whoever was listening. Focus Onic, this is no game. And stop thinking about kissing. What's wrong with you? I chided myself. "You are my mate. And i will never let you go until we are mated." "I will never be your mate." "Never is a strong word my female. And i could half mate you right now without your permission." He said leaning his face on my neck. Was he smelling me? As if answering my question he continues by saying, "Hmmm you smell so good. All it would take is sinking my wolf's fangs into your pretty neck for the half bond to be in place. And you would eventually come begging to me to complete the bond because the half bond will drive you insane with lust. And only i will be able to satisfy you. Not even your pretty little fingers or your toys would be able to help." He lets go of me abruptly and leaves the room leaving me shaking with the threat he just delivered. He could make me stay here with him weather i wanted to or not. One thing was for sure. I can't let him bite me. So i had to annoy him so much that he would stay away from me. Making it possible for me to find my way to escape.But how to annoy him so much that he would be able to stay away from me. For a little bit at least. I could throw food at him again. No i would be just wasting and disrespecting good food. And i refuse to be that kind of b***h. Throwing it once was more than enough. Maybe throwing shoes or anything tangible like bottles or utensils or better yet rocks. Yeah no, not good enough either. I sound pathetic. These two ideas wont irk to the point of staying away from me. He will just continue to accuse of throwing tantrums. Not that i would blame him because throwing bottles and utensils certainly is a tantrum. C'mon Onic. Think bigger, on a better plan C. Something a little different that would annoy him as hell. Clapping my hands together in excitement. I get up from the bed and start stretching myself removing the stiffness in my muscles. I had gotten an idea. An amaizing one. At least to me. Instead of throwing things at him, i was going to prank him. Making him notice that it was me pranking him. Yeah i was a b***h like that. I cant let the credit go to imaginary squirrels because his park fears and respects him. So no one would dare prank the alpha. As for me they would just say that i was his mate. So no way would i prank him. Which will result in the imaginary squirrels getting the credit of my hard work. Won't let it happen. Getting off track already Onic. I chided myself again for like the third time. Sometimes i struggle in staying focused. Fine, almost most of the time. But moving on, one of the amaizing things my friends and i can do are pranks. Real,annoying and maddening pranks. Thou our trio wasn't together, i think i can still manage to think of a couple of ideas to prank the alpha. Wait,why just the alpha? I bet i can prank some of his men too. The pranks will help me kill two birds with one stone. Lysander will be annoyed with me and his men would be too busy removing worms from their shoes to be able to keep track of my movements. This is gonna be so much fun!.
