Rogue

Chapter 5

Silver POV

I'm coming for you, baby! I'm coming for you, baby!

For a week I've been repeating these words to myself, like a mantra. They're a curse and a deliverance. I wait for him but I'm afraid, I love him, I hate him, I want to kiss him but I also want to hurt him.

I sigh and look at my face in the huge mirror in my bedroom. I can't run for any beauty pageant but I've certainly lost my job as a guinea pig in the morgue. Though not by much, my thin cheeks have regained their roundness, my silver eyes have filled with hope and my long, heavy hair has regained its luster.

Gently, with the tip of my finger, I touch the pitch-black wolf on my skin. The event of two weeks ago, comes back to my memory and suddenly my eyes change color catching the bloody, killer red of Alpha.

Flesh back

The woman's sharp fingernail presses painfully against the wolf impregnated in the soft skin of my neck, sweating venomously:

"I'll make it go away, honey."

My numb wolfie of weeks shook herself out of her coma and burbled manically. My long, sharp clawed hand clawed into her hair, pulling hard. She was a head taller than me but it didn't stop me from bringing her head close to mine and whispering softly, directly onto her now pale cheek.

"Listen up b***h, Aiden is mine, whether you or I want it! Stay the hell away, or I'll rip your pretty head off!"

The shock paralyzed her for a moment but she recovered quickly. She tried to hit me but I was ready, the power of the Supreme Moon driving the weakness from my bones. And I was a killer Moon now. Two men finally managed to take me after her, not before leaving terrible marks on her face and beautiful body. Eveline Perez was my sworn enemy and I was her nightmare.

Slowly, my eyes are returning to their normal colour and I feel a little weak. I have a long time to go before I recover or who knows, maybe never. I pull on a pair of jeans with a slightly ragged pattern, a white t-shirt, sneakers and go outside. Since Luna left, I've been living alone in the house provided by Alpha Nicolas. Although they are not the same height, Aiden being much taller, whenever I see him I feel melancholy. He looks so much like my boyfriend, only they're cousins, that sometimes I'm envious of Sophia, his Luna.

With lightly faltering steps, I walk towards the big house where Nic and Sophia are staying, praying I don't bump into Eveline again, who has extended her visit to the pack. An inner restlessness makes me shiver in the warm morning. I have a feeling that I'm going to have a hard day, a feeling that is accentuated by the guilty face of the moon that comes my way. I look at her in wonder as she grabs my arm and pulls me into the forest. After a few steps she stops abruptly and says:

"He's here!"

"Who's that?" I scream in fright.

He hugs me and whispers quickly:

"I couldn't tell you he's coming today, Nic..... didn't let me."

"I'm going to break the legs of that bastard husband of yours!" I growl angrily.

"No, Silver! That's how the Alpha Supreme made him!" she defends.

"Another bastard!" I spit out angrily. Now why are you telling me?" I ask curiously.

"Darling, you know how much I care about you and even if I have some problems with Nic, I'm a woman and we help each other. I want you to be ready when you meet Aiden."

"I don't think I can!" I shudder in her arms.

"Look at me! she commands."

I look into her eyes and see Luna's pack. Tough and strong and confident.

"Who the f**k was going to kill a b***h two weeks ago, a b***h much tougher than her? Me? No! You! You're the strongest Luna and he's only a man!" she snarls. Come on, run to the kids! Let him look for you!" She finishes devilishly and gives me a slight glare.

With my feet still unsteady, I walk into the heart of the forest towards the place where the smallest members of the pack begin their first transformations into werewolves or simply play.

The clearing is full of little ones who, at the sight of me, are swarming all over me. It's where I've spent most of my time since coming here, where I've made the most friends. The children don't feel threatened by my position and even have a soft spot for me.They have been the most miraculous treat when I had little to fall back on.

A dark-haired boy with eyes like jade, he squirms eagerly in his mother's arms when he sees me. He's my favorite and I wink for permission to hold him. He's no more than a year old and I can say with my hand on my heart that I'm his first conquest. I pity the poor girls when he grows up.

"Luna!"

The happy mother respectfully greets me, happy to be rid of the little devil now wriggling in her hands.

I take the chubby little body in my arms and sink my nose into the soft throat that smells sweetly of milk. He squirms happily on his tongue and tangles his little hands in my long, loose hair. He pulls hard, amused by a new amusement and lets me kiss his soft, smooth skin. I can't get enough of the wonder in my arms when a shadow falls over me and a familiar scent wafts over me. Hot lips parch my skin and a thick, sensual voice growls in my ear:

"I've come for you, baby!"

I don't even know when the baby in my arms disappears, just like the others. I'm numb and feel a thousand electric currents running through me. My little wolf is struggling madly, wanting to meet her mate. It's the first time I've really felt her alive after weeks of numbness. I don't want to and I can't turn to him, I'm petrified. I can feel him coming towards me and holding me in his arms. I close my eyes and fill my lungs with air and the scent I've longed for so long.

"Look at me, baby!"

The low, tender voice sends shivers through my body but I refuse to comply. A gentle but firm hand lifts my face and I squeeze hard on my eyelids.

"Let me see your beautiful eyes that whitened my nights!" he whispers tenderly.

"See that I don't believe you!" I grow angry and pull my head back.

It's useless, vain arms wrap around me and the giant above me loses patience.

"Open your eyes, now!"

Alpha's commanding voice, makes me peel back my eyelids and I find myself sinking into a green abyss. In a split second the green turns to black and our bond is stronger than ever.

"You're mine!" I growl in a deep growl and feel sharp claws tear into my flesh. With a superhuman effort, I refuse to answer him and shudder in terror at the sight of fangs and eyes bleeding Alpha rage.

"Say it!" he screams rabidly at me. "You're all mine!"

A red haze covers my eyes and I feel all my fear disappear. Damn it all and I'm the Supreme Moon! I raise my hands and tuck them into my long silky hair, pinned up in a ponytail. I pull it tight and stand on my tiptoes to get as close to it as possible.

"And you're all mine! Don't forget that!" I close, maneuvering.

The bond between us is made and so strong, it only has to mark me but that will have to wait. I still can't forgive him, I'm still suffering and my heart is broken.

He looks at me a little puzzled and then bursts out laughing wildly. He picks me up in his arms and despite my best efforts, sprinkles greedy kisses on my hot cheeks.

"God, I was such an i***t! You were made especially for me! So small and so brave!" she says with a laugh.

I struggle angrily and finally he lets me down. He grabs my arms behind my back with one hand and the other he sticks into the hair at the back of my neck. He looks at me seriously and brings his mouth close to mine. I gasp in fright when he grabs my soft bottom lip and bites it thirstily. I open his mouth to scream and like a porpoise he plunges his tongue inside the moist, soft interior.Though I don't want to, my hungry body takes control of my mind and I launch into the hottest kiss of my life. I moan into the strong arms and feel so small against the arrogant, domineering male who has taken control.

He finally lets me go and gasps for air. I feel my cheeks burning with shame, I was so weak, I gave in so easily.

"I love you, little one! I love you so much! And I'm sorry!" he whispers.

I press my cheek against his strong chest and say nothing. Hot tears flood my eyes and a sigh escapes through my swollen lips.

Please don't cry! I don't want you to shed another tear because of me! Enough has fallen! she begs me sighing.

I lie in the cradle of his arms until I'm soothed, basking in his scent. Vanilla hands unravel my body in long, tender caresses,

"Come on, let's get out of here!" he says softly.

We start for home without saying a word with our fingers intertwined. He holds me so close it's like I could disappear. Nicolas meets us with a wide grin on his face.

"f**k you" I spit and walk past him

"Hm, so tomorrow I can expect a murder?" he laughs further.

I arch a puzzled eyebrow and wait for him to continue.

"Nothing, just kidding!" he says.

I don't know why I don't believe him but I try to allay my fears alone.

"Let's have lunch!" Aiden commands me.

I look at him wryly and my legs cut. I'm looking at an evil Alpha who can't wait for me to contradict him, a domineering boyfriend, a determined man. I feel my cheeks catch fire and I bow my gaze under the immense force in his gaze.

I have a possessive, control freak soul mate. He doesn't let go of my arms for a moment and shoves a plate full of food under my nose, barking:

"Eat!"

Curious, I ate almost everything. Was it the bond between us, my body deprived so long of a good meal for lack of appetite, glad of its proximity? I don't know. Even though I didn't forgive him, I indulged myself for a whole day with his arms wrapped around me the whole time. I didn't say a word to him. I even refused to answer him. The more I ignored him, the more a devilish light grew in his eyes. Finally he caught my chin in his huge hand and asked me:

"Don't you want to talk to me at all?"

I didn't answer him just shook my head.

"Are you sure? Not even a word?"

I looked at him impassively, starting to worry when I saw his devilish smile. He brought me closer to his face and whispered directly into my lips:

"I promise your last word before you fall asleep will be my name! Which you will call out, princess!"

My heart thumped in my chest and a flutter spread through my body. From that moment on, he didn't pay any attention to me and I even felt pissed off. He held me in his lap like a child and swayed by his slightly raspy voice, with my head resting on his broad, strong chest, I fell asleep.

I woke up in my bed and shuddered in fright when I realised that I was wearing nothing but a modest bikini, a giant with green eyes, propped up on one elbow, watching me in amusement. I looked around for something to cover myself and gasped when I saw his massive body in just a pair of boxers. My gaze was drawn to his magnificent eyes staring at me hungrily and longingly, not before I noticed his well-defined muscles that I swallowed dryly.

He leaned into me and I felt my lips captured in a hot kiss. Driven by a mad desire I slipped my tongue into my sweet mouth, suckling every soft, wet morsel. I groaned contentedly as his inchoate moan broke against my lips. Feeling my satisfaction he moved his kisses to the sensitive neck area which he filled with small, painless bites, moving down to full, aroused breasts. I fought hard against the moans rising inside me as a sharp scream finally formed on my swollen lips as I felt my n****e sucked into a ruthless mouth. The increased pressure on my chest made me writhe helplessly under it and moan uncontrollably:

"Aiden!"

I felt his grin broad against my heated skin as he then chuckled full on:

"Did I keep my promise, Princess!?"

I ran my hands through silky hair and pulled until I brought his mouth close to mine. I sensuously bit my bottom lip knowing it drove him wild, licked it lasciviously with the tip of my tongue and before kissing him I whispered:

"This is a game for two!"
