The Irresistible Love

Decision Maid For Me

JANE POV

“You haven’t even touched the food, have you?” he said looking at me. I got myself up in nervousness and kept my eyes on the floor. I don’t know if I was expected to answer or not. My heart started beating fast when I heard his footsteps echoing in the room. He was coming towards me. “Not a big fan of sandwiches huh?” he said in his musculine voice. I clenched my fist and swallowed a lump in my throat. I just wanted to run away. Dominance and intimidation oozed out of his voice. It would be a big lie if I say I didn’t feel intimidated by his formidable personality. I stood my ground though whereas he paced towards me like a predator. 

My heart skipped a beat when I felt his hand grabbing my chin. My lips formed a pout and the right hand held onto his arm. I was expecting him to be angry but his eyes told another story. His oceanic eyes, mesmerizing as ever, was feasting on my pursed lips. He looked curious and impatient. His blue orbs travelled up and met my eyes. “What were you doing in the woods?” he asked in a dangerous tone. My heart clenched in pain as if it was not expecting him to take such a tone with me. It expected him to be sweet and gentle. Moron! My chin was hurting badly. I tried to get his hands off me as tears spilled down my eyes. 

I caught pain flickering in his eyes when he saw my tears streaming down. He took his hands off my chin but his eyes were still inspecting my face. “I told you I was exploring,” I lied with my head hung low. “You didn’t think your lie through. Did you?” he smirked. “You think I am a fool. You think I will believe that you were exploring the woods in the middle of the night. That too for two nights back to back?” His brow furrowed and his one hand wrapped my arm. I was caught. My eyes widened in fear. “Don’t lie to me Sweety. You have no idea what I am capable of?” he leaned and whispered in my ear. ‘ I..I.. was curious to know if werewolves really exist? I just wanted to know more about them,” I whispered. He wouldn’t have heard my words had he not standing so close to me. I could feel his breath fanning my forehead. “I was…” I stopped dead on my track when I felt his lips on my neck. He took a long breath filling his senses with my nose. First his cinnamon scent and now his touch. This all was making me weak at the knees. Unconsciously. My hands grabbed his shoulder for support. I closed my eyes and enjoyed his nose wandering over my neck and collarbone after he stretched the shirt off my shoulder. I was supposed to push him away but I couldn’t. He was supposed to treat me like a criminal but he didn’t. 

I gasped for a breath when he wrapped his other hand around my waist. He pulled my body in causing me to collide with his wall-like chest. My breath quickened as I smelled his perfectly combed hair. His soft hair tickled my lips. There was utter silence in the room except for the noise our breath was making. I could hear and feel his breath on me. His hot breath had upped my body heat. He started licking my neck as he squeezed my waist lightly. “It’s too late. Why did you have to come now?” he whispered in between kissing my neck.  “What?” I asked him in confusion. Seemed like my words broke his trance. In the matter of a second he pulled himself away from me.

He licked his lips and stormed out of the room without sparing a look at me. I stood there confused and unsatisfied. I didn’t want him to stop. I did not want him to leave me like this at least not after sparking a desire in me. What was he talking about? I wondered. He sounded so calm and vulnerable. Nothing like his usual self- tough and unpredictable. His touch awoke all kinds of forbidden desire in me and then he just left. I sat on the bed and grabbed the plate. I was feeling hungry and I couldn't see any way this food was going to satiate my hunger. I shoved the food inside my throat. Sleep captivated me soon after I shut my eyes close. 

Five days passed by and I was still stuck in the room. He didn’t come again, not that I wanted him to. I had regained control over my senses soon after he left. The door opened and the same woman entered to give me my lunch. “When will I be out of here?” I asked. “Alpha is not in the town right now. He will come today most probably, so maybe tomorrow he will decide about you,” she said. “Does Alpha have a name?” I enquired further? She handed me the food and uttered “Josh. but we all call him Alpha.” 

I didn’t spend these five days in vain. I had made a plan. A plan to take him and his kingdom down. I shot a smile on her way. She smiled back and left the room. I had already sensed that the woman did not dislike me. In fact, she had a soft corner for me just like Alpha. I laid back on the bed and closed my eyes. I was waiting for him. I was waiting to destroy him bit by bit. “Josh,” I pronounced as my lips curved into a smile.

Finally the day arrived. “Alpha wants to see you,” Kylie informed me. I climbed out of the bed and followed her. I felt the other members of the house staring at me as we passed by them. Once again, I saw Shannon sitting in the chair outside. This time, she didn’t smile at me but looked at me with confusion. I felt like a criminal on a shame march. I was burning from inside but kept a straight face. We reached the same building where they had kept me. I winced before stepping in the house. The old memories came flooding back. Was he going to throw me back into that room? My plan would go in gutter if that happens. I followed her into the building. Soon, we reached a room. Kylie knocked before entering the room and I followed her. It was a vast room.  

His same cinnamon scent hit me like a train. Once again I found myself lost in his smell. Once again, I felt my will-power weakening. I was walking behind Kylie, buying time to get my mind over his scent. We were not alone, there were two other men. Kylie sidestepped revealing my presence to him. I looked up only to find he was gazing at me already. 

He and the other two men were sitting on the sofa before me. He blinked and then lowered his gaze. “Sit down,” he commanded. Kylie gestured to me to sit in the chair placed in the center of the room. She left the room. Now it was just me, him and two other men. One of the men said “We have discussed your case and have come to the conclusion that although you made a grave mistake by stepping into the woods your intentions were clear. But at the same time we can’t let you go as now you know about us. So, we have decided to keep you as a maid. “ What?” I blurted out. “You heard me, girl,”  he shot back. “I will not serve as a maid.” I snapped. “Then we are left with no choice but to kill you in the most brutal way,” another man butted in. I looked at them helplessly. Josh was sitting right in front of me on a couch. He was smiling as if enjoying my helpless state. Sadist! 

Tears began to form in my eyes. I clenched my eyes shut to stop them from rolling out. I saw Michael’s face again. His smiling face and then his lifeless face. I couldn’t die without bringing succor to his wounded soul. I couldn’t die without punishing those who tormented him to death. I clasped the chair’s edge I was sitting in and heaved a sigh. I opened my eyes and this time it was not brimming with tears but with rage and hatred that I had for Alpha. “Okay, I accept your verdict,” I said while holding his gaze. He was looking into my eyes ENTRANCED. If only he knew what I had planned for him.
