The cold night made a shiver run through the all too foolish girl, as she sneakily stepped through the dungeon door; it had been easy sneaking in thanks to a sleeping guard who had his body in the corner of the wall. His loud snores filling the dark gloomy place, making Lolita's padding not as detectable as she walked past the numerous cells, and she knew she'd sense him somewhere.
Her mate.
Lolita wasn't given a proper chance to meet him, for the fight during the ceremony wrecked their introduction, and even though she had tried to intervene his brown eyes locked on her demanding silently that she wouldn't dare step in. Lolita knew it was for the best she hadn't made it known they're mates obvious.
The Alpha would kill her if she did. Lolita breathed in as steadily as she could, her free hand grasping onto her flimsy white gown, and the other held onto keys tightly; the guards sleep was at least useful for something.
Lolita felt all blood rushed towards her cheeks, as the scent of her mate soon engulf her, and her chest tighten with need; her senses heightening as she sucked in a quivering breath. Slowly, her shaking hands began to unlock the cell door with the key she observed the guard use, and she knew this was it. This was her chance to finally meet her mate.
"Stop."
The timbre of the baritone voice made Lolita freeze in place her wide eyes widen once she glanced up, and met her mate's brown gaze.
The man stood before her in all his glory, his eyes narrowed on hers, and she shook nervously her plan all forgotten as she took in his ethereal appearance.
Her mate's face was chiseled to perfection; his jawline defined, his sharp features virile leading to his soft lips, and that was the only thing of his that was soft.
Dark wisps of facial hair was on his face; the dark facial hair making him even more rugged if such a thing was possible, and she inhaled her sharp intake of breath.
The man leaned down his towering 6'5 muscled frame lowered over her petite tiny 5'3, his mouth graze her ear through the cell's wide barricade, and made a whimper escape from her. The spark he incited from his touch making her lips quiver, "You think you're bad?"
He asked in a murmur.
His voice only making her whine, nuzzling in his touch, and she prayed he take her right here, right now regardless of the circumstances.
"Hmm?"
His hum jolted against her skin, bringing her out of reality, and foolishly she blurted," I only wanted to help."
Lolita's bright brown eyes watch in disappointment, as her mate leaned away from her, and she immediately missed his touch. "You help? You silly little thing."
Her mate scoffed.
Lolita glanced around the dark barren dungeon where the oblivious guard sat on the ground snoring soundly, his eyes shut in peace, and timidly Lolita stared at the man she just met not too long ago yet knew she wanted.
Xavier watched at what was his in longing as she explained her foolish reason for sneaking in here, she thought she be able to release her brother not knowing the asshole wasn't stupid enough to put him here of all places, but in the stockade .
Where her ass wouldn't be going; he'd make certain of that for sure for once he felt an emotion he never felt before, and it was dominance.
Never had anyone stared at him with such subservience, his wolf that never made it's appearance in years even emerged, and as his mate meekly stared up at him with those thick lash framed doe eyes.
For once his hate for himself vanished, the way she stared at him alone did wonders to him, and her curly brown locks was thrown up in one the tendrils framing her delicate oval face but also showcasing her neck; where he was tempted to put his mark for the world to see.
Xaxier gaze went on her figure where a thin night gown hugged loosely, his mouth watered, and his jaw squared as he thought of all who caught such a sight. Mine.
An unbearable amount of anger filled him like never before, as she yabbed about her foolish plan his hand reach out knocking the breath out of her, and his fingers clenched the thin material in his hand.
"Dressed for someone?"
Lolita eyes widen in confusion, not understanding his question, yet flustered when she was pulled by the top of her dress,"No, I-"
His thumb flicked against her sensitive n****e the sparks he elicited making her stop mid way through her sentence, and arousal form in her as she struggle to find her words, "You're mine."
Lolita froze.
She was no fool to the thick demand in his voice, her wolf could detect miles away the obvious Alpha that radiated power, and yet she was confused. How could an omega be an Alpha?
A strong Alpha too she knew he was suppressing all the power he held, and her wolf panted ready to shift to be taken by his wolf.
"Is that clear?"
"Y-yes."
Lolita's abdomen tighten with want, lustfully nodding until she realize any moment now The Alpha of the pack could be at her room, and awaiting her to be his date to dinner. Lolita eyes widen at the thought.
"I did something stupid," Lolita cried tears filled her eyes, as she stared at her mate, and regrettably spat those horrid words, "I'm going on a date with the Alpha."
___*.
The guard's abrupt silent brought Xavier out of his trance, his eyes he knew were glowing red, and his claws painfully grew from his nails. His mate watched horrified at his enraged form; his thick fangs appearing from his snarl, he knew that his thirst for The Alpha's blood would get him killed and still that was what he craved.
Hurriedly he grasped his mate, yanking her thin small frame through his cell before she was sighted by the guard, and on instinct he grasped her nape making her stare at him in terror; his ranking didn't do him any justice because he knew no omega held such power.
So did his mate.
Who lowered her head in submission, her brown curls hanging over her face, and without a care he whispered harshly in her ear, " Did you say?"
Lolita's lip quivered, her eyes filled with tears, and she didn't know what to consider her mate regardless if he were a werewolf or not he was mad at her. Scrath that, outraged.
"I did it to save my brother!"
Lolita muttered meekly, her voice higher than a child's with terror, and still her mate could careless his brooding frame that towered over hers scaring her.
"Look," Her mate said pained, Lolita's eyes widen once he stepped back from her, "I'm not good enough, correct?"
Lolita shook her head, reaching out towards him, and he shrugged her hand off his shoulder in rage,"You prefer an Alpha?"
"No, it's not like that!"
Lolita hushed angrily, can't believing he'd see her as such a woman, and she whispered hurriedly,"I promise, I don't even like him--"
"I suggest you leave."
The words of the no longer sleeping guard startled Lolita, who stood frozen in place, and she glanced behind her to see the window in the cell her mate stayed in ajar. She glanced back at the emotionless guard who stared at her solemnly,"I'll be quiet about this incident, if you stay quiet."
Lolita nodded.
Knowing the guard would get his head chopped off if he reveal that she managed to sneak past him, while he was sleeping, and just like that she exited the dungeon feeling hopeless of the thought of her mate rejecting her all because she wanted to save her brother. Should she feel wrong for wanting save her brother?
"Mates, huh?"
Lolita jerked in suprise as her gaze landed on the guard's who stopped at the dungeon entrance; his pale face old with age wrinked as he smile, and his grey hair was illuminated in the moonlight; he obviously had separated from his wolf to age. She only nodded, not even wanting to explain the situation to him, because it'll only make her feel worst.
"Give him time," He said with pity, his eyes suddenly filled with remorse, "The kid's going through hell here."
He shook his head as he motioned her to exit, before Lolita wordlessly handed him his keys, and with worry he whispered, "Take off his scent, before you see The Alpha."
Oh, that she knew.
Yet wish she didn't have to do.
