Illyan POV
“Now, don't you think you should be punished for this?” He smirked. I think he already knows the perfect punishment for me and I had a sinking feeling that I knew what it was too.
From the predatory glow in his eyes to the smirk tugging at the corner of his lips to the intense atmosphere around us because of our close proximity, it's impossible not to know.
His eyes kept wandering from my eyes to my lips, we were awfully close, and he kept stroking my back, gently and affectionately that one would confuse our relationship if they saw us right now.
“Alpha … I…” I stuttered as I tried to get up and pull away from his grip but the keyword here is tried. His grip was too strong, I was nothing compared to him. “Please let go of me…” I begged and that seemed to have riled him up.
He pulled me up and made me sit on his lap, “It seems you've understood what your punishment would be, why are you resisting? Isn't this tempting?” he licked his lips seductively, then tucked his nose on my neck and inhaled deeply, his breath fanning me, making me hot all of a sudden. “Your scent is so seductive, Illyana.” His words made me shiver and the way my name rolled off his lips was appeasing to me. What the hell?
“Well… it's no use trying to struggle really because I always get what I want.” After those words left his lips, I found myself under him on top his huge and very soft bed, I couldn't care how comfy his bed was because I was too preoccupied with the almost animalistic individual on top me at that moment.
I tried to struggle and leave his hold, he was a werewolf I wanted to kill, the reason for my misery and the life I lead today, I cannot give up my virginity to him so I used every once of willpower I had to reject him, but he couldn't take my struggling anymore and with just a move from him, he successfully pinned both my arms to the bed with just one of his hand.
He raised my gown up and I felt his fingers through the fabric of my pants, “Oh Illyana … you're already wet. Why were you being so stubborn?” He chuckled like this situation was light and nothing as serious as I was making it to be.
“Let go of me!” I demanded and he burst out laughing.
“So fierce. Hush and stop looking at me with those eyes, it's too sexy and I might lose my cool and take you on right now.”
I felt the blood rush to my cheeks, embarrassed by the things he said, the position I was in with my legs spreaded apart in front of him and most of all by how I felt when he shifted my pants and stuck two of his fingers inside.
When is this how to punish an assassin? What is wrong with the Alpha king?
I glared at him even though I was blushing, fingers still inside me, he leaned towards me, lips close to each other, “I warned you to stop looking at me like that, didn't I?” With that he pressed his lips into mine and I couldn't help but kiss him back.
I was feeling all sorts of emotions which I couldn't decipher, so I decided to just follow my guts and this was where it lead me.
I was in a trance until I heard myself moaning the his name, “Alpha Asher…”
“Call me Asher, Illyana.” His coy and calm voice filled my ears and I realized we were completely naked at this point.
“You look so beautiful right now, Illyana.” He continued, “The moon goddess keeps bathing you in her moon light and you keep glowing… so beautiful.” His words stirred up some emotions from me and I didn't even know when I said, “You too, Asher.”
“I love the sound of my name.”
This was wrong, but I couldn't stop and it's not because Alpha Asher wouldn't but because I didn't want to stop either.
It was painful at first and then it got a bit pleasurable and I loved the way I felt in his arms, how soft his kisses were and the feel of his breath on my. Most of all, I loved the way he looked at me, his silver eyes watching my every movement.
We finally stopped in the early hours of the morning and I was completely exhausted by then, he wrapped his arms my waist and shoulders and slept soundly, feeling no remorse for what happened at night.
I took didn't feel remorseful, and I soon drifted into the darkness.
*****
My eyes slowly opened, the sunlight blinding me and I quickly squinted my eyes and turned to my side.
“Are you finally awake?” his voice got me back to my senses and I immediately sat up.
He was fully clothed, on the bed with a laptop and a cup of coffee on the bedside cabinet. “You must have been really exhausted. Not surprising since it was your first time.” He continued speaking. He was as calm as very, speaking like this was nothing, like having a maid in his maid was an everyday thing for him.
“I'm sorry, Alpha Asher.” I quickly got on my knees to apologize but realized I was completely naked, his eyes darted towards me and I knew that hungry look from last night, a smirk danced on his lips but I quickly covered myself with the duvet and got down from the bed.
“Illyana, I already told you to call me Asher when it's just the two of us, don't be stubborn again.” he chuckled then took his eyes back to his laptop.
Why did he let me sleep here? Why is he even working here? What is actually going on? I tried to kill this werewolf so why is he insisting I calling by his first name like we're close?!
Is this Alpha king secretly mad?
That's the only logical explanation for this. Yes, he is mad! Very mad! No sane werewolf actions would be this confusing and questionable!
But how did a mad person rule this pack and become such an empire today?
“Umm… Alpha Asher… what will you do with me? Last night I tried to umm…” I tried to find the words needed to ask my question, but I couldn't find them. Should I return back to my work or what now?
“I will have you do whatever I want.” He lifted his eyes from the laptop and back to me, “Because now, your life belongs to me.” His playful smile appeared on his face again, “Since I spared it and rewarded you instead.” He winked.
