Stay

Eat you

Neeko's P.O.V

Ever since I came back to the pack house, the overwhelming scent of the Alpha was driving me crazy. It's like the most beautiful scent that I'd ever smelled in my whole life. And I'm not even sure what the hell is so wrong with me. Before getting my sense of smell back, it was as if he didn't even exist at all, well... maybe I was a little attracted to be honest, but it wasn't that big of a deal to me. But now, I can't even talk without being too conscious of his presence.

Right now, I'm heading towards his room.

I'm kinda worried about the cat thing. Is it still there? But more than that, I'm worried about what I'll do when he enters the room. How am I supposed to act in front of him when my mind keeps roaming around him? I didn't know if I'd be able to handle myself but the fact I knew was that I could be anything but normal in front of him. Ugh! It's too troublesome.

I stood before his door and wondered if it was a good idea to enter his room. But when I thought about him getting pissed about this matter, I turned the door knob and closed the door behind me. A familiar wave of his masculine scent washed over me and I was filled with desire. Before I could control myself, I was already smelling his clothes like a p*****t.

I slapped myself when I realized what I was doing. So embarrassing! I restrained myself from doing anything to damage my reputation. For God's sake, what's gotten into me?

I was interrupted by a knock. It was the pack doctor. He didn't even look me in the eye as he treated me and left in a hurry as if I'd bite him to death if he stayed longer. What's with that guy?

I quickly dismissed the thought and laid on the Alpha's king sized bed. Wow, even his sheets smelled like him. I sniffed his covers like a p*****t and was even enjoying it. I didn't know if it'd invite me trouble, but for the time being, I didn't even care. Soon my eyes started to get heavy as tiredness took over me and without realizing it, I slipped into a deep slumber.

~~~~~~

I squirmed under the warm hold of the sheets. It was comfortable and almost felt as if another person was sleeping beside me. I crept closer seeking more warmth. I felt something go around my waist and pull me closer to a hard surface. It felt warm.... and cozy. I could feel the hard surface heaving up and down steadily as I felt someone breathing on top of my head.

Wait!...... Breathing?

My eyes shot open as I took in the situation I was in. Two large arms were wrapped around my waist as I faced the bare chest of the Alpha. ALPHA???

I pushed him in panic waking him in the process. I felt my heart jump in my throat when his green eyes met mine in confusion that were still half asleep. In an attempt to get away from him, I tripped on the covers and fell from the bed.

Oww! That hurt so bad.

I rubbed my butt to soothe the stinging pain and got on my feet feeling a little light headed.

"Why did you push me?" the pain in my butt vanished when the Alpha's cold voice hit my ears.

"Because you were sleeping with me" I said without thinking much.

He looked at me as if I was an i***t. "It's my bed. Where else would I sleep?"

"You could at least wake me up so I could go back to my own room"

"And why would I do that when I know you'd go back to your mate?" his eyes had an unknown glint that kinda creeped me out. "You sleep with your mate every night. Why can't you sleep with me for a night?" his question felt almost ridiculous, childish even. He looked like a grumpy child telling his mother to sleep with him instead of his father. I would have laughed if the situation was anything better than this. But now, I was at a loss of word. What did he mean by sleep with my mate? Of course it's only rational for mates to share a bed. And what does he mean by sleep with him for one night? Does he want to share our bed too?

"Alpha, I really don't mind sharing the bed with you but the problem is that I've a problem." I said, controlling the urges to pounce upon him. I didn't even understand my own desires. Why would I want to pounce upon him? It's almost as if I want to eat him. He smells too delicious for his own good.

" What's the problem? "he asked without blinking as he crossed his hands across his chest, looking right at me.

" You'll think I'm weird if I tell you, insane even. So, I'd better not tell you. " I said as I tried to walk out of the conversation.

" I won't think that you're weird, I promise" he looked so sincere. I'd never seen him like that before. I almost believed him.

"You only say that now. Once you hear it, you'll be laughing your guts out" I said, not quite believing him.

"I won't laugh at you" he said, his voice super serious. Seems I can't get away. Alright then. Here goes nothing!

"Fine" I sighed. "You know, I'm allergic to cats. Some days ago, I lost my sense of smell due to the allergic reaction. But the moment my senses returned, I felt too strange around you. You smelled so good, so delicious, even more delicious than my favorite pasta. And I can't seem to hold back my urges when I'm around you. I want to cling to you like a monkey and do things that are considered indecent and abnormal. I'm afraid, if I stay with you any longer I might eat you up. Do you think I developing some sort of disease? Or am I turning into a monster? I think I'll go visit a witch since the doctor says that I'm completely fine "

A small smile appeared on his lips as I finished explaining.

" You promised you wouldn't laugh at me or think I'm weird "I accused him when I saw him breaking his promise.

"I'm not laughing at you though I do think that you are a little weird" he said. He didn't even try to hide his smile.

He was totally making fun of me and I was pissed. Great! I had just embarrassed myself in front of the Alpha.

"Has no one told you about s****l attraction?" he asked.

"My mother did. But she said that only mates are attracted to each other and we're not even mates. I don't understand. I think I'm cursed" I mumbled the last part as panic started to rise in my chest.

My face must have shown everything because I heard the Alpha chuckle making my belly feel uncomfortable.

"Come here" he called holding out his hand to me.

I looked at him with uncertainty and doubt. When he saw that I wasn't going to reach out to him, he pulled me by the hand and settled me on his lap, in a way that I was totally straddling him.

"Alpha, wha........." I gasped when he put his finger on my mouth to silence me. By that time, my heart my jumping madly in my chest as if it could burst out any second.

"Do you think I'm attractive?" his question made me blush. Was that even a question? Couldn't he tell just looking at my face?

"I think you are too attractive for your own good. That's one of the reasons I want to eat you in the first place" I admitted. Why does he want to know how bad I want to munch him down my throat when he already knows what I'm going through?

"You think my scent is irresistible?"

What kind of question is that? Didn't I make it clear to him? Does he want me to embarrass myself to death?

"You don't know what I'm going through. Your question is too obvious after all the explanation I did." I said shaking my head in shame. "You don't know how I smelled your clothes when I just entered your room. Man that was embarr...." I stopped realising what I was saying. I looked at him wide eyed as he returned it with a surprised look. What's happening to me? It's not like my normal self. My mind feels hazy when I'm engulfed in his scent and I can't seem to be able to say anything rational as if I'm drunk.

"Why am I even telling you this?" I asked once I realized that I had no obligation to tell him.

"You don't even unders........." Before I could complete the sentence, my lips were captured in his. He kissed me passionately and I struggled to keep up with him. Unlike the last time, I didn't push him away. I knew it wasn't right to be kissing someone who isn't your mate but it felt so right even when the rational part of me knew it was wrong. It felt too good to be real.

We kissed each other for what felt like eternity and when we finally pulled away, we were both panting heavily. He rested his forehead on mine as we both tried to catch our breaths.

"I understand" he said in his husky voice making me look into his eyes that were already staring at me.

"Because I want to eat you too"
