Forced to be Luna

Mr Liam Winter

"Hello there" a deep voice answered my little sister. It sent chills down my spine that was both terrifying and terrific at once.

I stumbled back towards the parlour and he advanced with the casual confidence of somebody absolutely sure of himself and his abilities. His gaze went to Bella who I was now clutching by my side for a little while before settling back on me. Two men whom I also recognise from last night also came in taking guard positions by the door. His face was clear and he was extremely gorgeous. His jawline was straight moving into an extremely clean beard that complemented his facial features. His eyes were sharpest grey I had ever seen and I couldn’t not for a minute take my gaze away. He was also staring deeply into my eyes but his facial expression did not look as transfixed as mine must have been. He smirked at me and at once the spell was broken. His eyes lost all the warmth and now I could see the killer within such a gorgeous face.

That was the face of a man who had no regard for human life. Who had chased me down mercilessly, and hunted me to my very own house. All these things were true but what was also true was an intense attraction growing in me for him, from the very first moment we made eye contact. It made no sense whatsoever and had me completely confused.

His metal grey eyes trailed over me, and his body stiffened. Something bright flickered through his eyes, like a flash of gold. I must've been imagining things. The man turned his face up.

It looked like he was sniffing the air, but it couldn't have been. No one sniffs the air like a dog. I pushed Bella behind me protectively. Fearing not for my life but that of my sister.

The two men behind him made a move to come into the hallway, but the handsome man growled at their sudden movement. I briefly wondered how such a sound could come from a human being. The gold flecks in his eyes became more intense as he stared at me. His eyes locked me in place and my heart beat continued to increase steadily.

"Don't touch me!" I shrieked as the man came towards me. He was already in my personal space and was too close to me. His pink lips tugged up in a smirk and he took no motion to stop. I stumbled back, almost falling over Bella.

Bella who was already panicking, shrieked and ran away to her room. One of the men at the door made to follow after her but was stopped by a single growl from Mr what ever his name was. I kept moving backwards and he kept advancing. I was terrified and completely excited at the same time. Somehow I knew he wouldn’t hurt me but I didn’t know why or what he wanted from me.

His hand rose up and steadily brushed hair away from my face. He then cupped my face in his hands trailing his fingers through my cheeks.

I didn't know what was happening. A warm feeling ran up my face from his simple touch. It felt as though a thousand butterflies filled my stomach and were gently trying to get out. Fiery trails emanated from the place he had touched. I was confused and excited I had never felt anything like this before. He boxed me in with his hands and a part of me just wanted to sigh and lean on his big bulging muscular hands. The hands that had so easily snapped a man’s neck, I was wondering why the thought of his obvious strength was arousing to me and not repulsive, however I could not dwell on that thought for long because I was so conscious of him and what he might do to me.

He brought his nose to my neck and took a deep breath inhaling my scent. He seemed to savour it and growled out approval his actions were making me more aroused by the minute and my body’s response to him was mind boggling.

“Sumptuous” he voiced out after growling out his pleasure His voice was husky and deep, with a hint of accent on the edge that wasn't English.I realised that those were the second words he had said throughout our meeting and longed to make him speak more. Something inside me fluttered at his words. For some reason, I had a sudden urge to feel his lips on mine. I hated myself for feeling like that. He was a killer, for f**k's sake!!. His show of dominance and possessiveness really had me aroused and that was very disturbing to me because I was nobody’s property. My hormones needed to get under control. Now was not the time for whatever it was that I was feeling. I needed to get myself together.

"What do you want?" I stuttered, finally able to say something more intelligent than a gasp.

The man didn't move, but watched me with silent, cold eyes. They were insanely mesmerizing, and I found myself fighting to look away. His strong gaze had my knees trembling. I swallowed, but my mouth was dry.

"What do you w-want with me?”

He had done something to me because I was totally enraptured with him. His scent, his eyes, his presence. It was intoxicating and filling me with a pleasurable sensation all through my body. Maybe I had been drugged but didn’t know it. Whatever it was, was alien to me but I could definitely get used to it.

He smiled at me and I noticed that his teeth were not quite human they were sharper and his incisors were longer than normal. His eyes had changed their colour right before my eyes to a glowing gold that both frightened and calmed me at once.

His next words further confused me.

“Hello mate’
