After a long hot shower, I dried my long curly hair, applied some make up and then headed to the wardrobe and picked up a casual outfit, black skinny jeans, a light gray top which I completed with my biker boots and a leather jacket. It took me about an hour to get ready, and had about one more till we had to go. I decided to go downstairs and have my first drink. I think I need it after the intense morning I had. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I saw Philip laying on the sofa comfortably watching TV. He gave me a lustful look that made me feel really good.
"I am having a drink. Would you like one?"
I asked while heading behind the kitchen counter. He c****d his head, looking in my direction, I was already pouring vodka into a tall glass with ice finishing it with some lemon juice.
"Alcohol for breakfast! Sure! The same for me."
He answered with an amused grin. He got up and sat on the stool. I passed him the glass I had just prepared and poured another glass for me. We enjoyed our drink quietly for a few moments.
"You should have a shower."
I said.
"Do I stink?"
He replied with an evil smirk. I felt bad for saying that his sweet, musky smell was mixed with the coco shower gel in the guest bathroom. Clearly, he had a shower last night. I tried to save it.
"No, you smell great…you will feel better…it worked for me."
He smiled cheekily as he could tell I was trying to fix my mistake.
"I'll say…you look wonderful."
I felt my cheeks burning, and my stomach tightened once again.
"How about that birthday kiss?"
He was looking at me, his brown eyes full of fire, I bit my lower lip, and he was irresistibly handsome.
So what if I fool around a little bit? It's my birthday after all. Bad Sofia…real bad!
I took a big sip of my drink, I got up and stood in front of him. He was observing my moves. I placed myself between his legs and let my hands rest on his shoulders. My heart was pounding, and my skin was burning. I kept my gaze low, focusing on his lips. I didn't want to look into his eyes, those commanding eyes, I was afraid that if I did, I would just give myself to him to do whatever he wanted with. I don't want that! Do I? He grabbed the back of my neck with one hand and pulled me in. His other hand landed on the small of my back. We started kissing, slowly in the beginning, just tasting each other's lips, he pulled away. I still kept my gaze low,
"Look at me."
He said in a commanding tone.
My lips parted as I lifted my gaze, and our eyes locked. He pulled me in again this time in a deep, passionate kiss. My hands went his back and held on tight. Goddess, this feels so right, but it is so wrong. For the second time today, we were interrupted, the bell rang, breaking our kiss, a low curse left his lips while he released me from his hold. Both our breathing was heavy.
"I need a minute."
He said, I can feel his excitement poking on my belly.
"You got it."
I said, still catching my breath.
"Just a minute, I yelled as I moved away slowly, trying to compose myself before opening the front door.
"Hi, I am here for Alpha Philip, I brought him this."
Said a tall, very well-built blond man with light grey eyes while checking me out and showing me a small suitcase.
"I'll take it."
"I'd rather hand it over personally."
He looked at me suspiciously, and I frowned.
"Are you worried a small she wolf like me harmed your Alpha?"
I said, pretending to be offended.
"No no…"
He replied defensively
I sigh
"Then hand it over."
"I have orders."
"I give the orders here."
He looks frustrated with our exchange, I fight the urge to laugh. I turn and look at Philip's direction. He gave me an ok nod while he had an amused expression on his face. I let out a fake, frustrated sigh.
"Come in."
And I moved to the side so he could enter.
"Hey man."
"Hey Rob… Sofia, this is my beta, Rob."
Philip introduced us while he came closer, I extended my hand and smiled innocently.
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you."
He replied, frowning, and then he turned to Philip.
"Your pop told me to stay with you."
"You can't stay here."
"I can't go back. He'll kill me."
Philip gave him an angry look, and he took a couple of steps back.
"I'll ask Dave if he can stay in the pack house."
I intervened while texting on my phone
"You need to get ready."
"I am going.''
He took his suitcase and rushed upstairs.
"Would you like a drink?"
I offered Rob.
"No, thank you."
He replied politely.
"Please take a seat."
"It's ok. I'll stand."
"Emm ok."
After a few moments of awkward silence, I got a reply to the text I sent to Alpha Dave.
"You can stay in the pack house. Dave will meet you there and accommodate you."
"Thank you."
Goddess, this guy is so serious. I made another drink and started sipping it, feeling my mood being lifted. Moments later, Philip came down wearing blue jeans, a black t-shirt, and a black leather jacket. He cleaned up well. He looked amazing. The nut in my stomach returned. Snap out of it girl...we have our life planned out, and he is not part of it. The logic monster in my mind reminded me. I took a big sip of my drink to wash down the doubts.
"Rob will drive us to town."
Stated Philip, I didn't argue I was planning to drink and didn't want to drive back, I got up from my seat, took my bag, and we left. The drive to town was quiet, I asked Rob if he wanted to join us, and he declined. What a dry, unpleasant guy.
