Chapter Nine.
Selena's Pov.
Since Alpha Lucien left my room last night, I've had a kind of unusual feeling I couldn't quite fathom, but all I desire is to see him again. I almost misunderstood him for a Playboy I had assumed until he unzipped my dress and left without touching me. I made up my mind to give him a second chance. The next morning I sat on my bed, everywhere felt boring and empty. Then the door creaked open and someone stepped in.
“Alpha Lucien” I called out before running to him, I felt a wave of excitement burst in me. I rushed to meet him at the door and wrapped my hands around his waist while my head rested peacefully on his broad chest as if my comfort lies there, without thinking about my actions. After a few minutes of staying in his arms, I came back to my senses, and I realised how I had thrown myself at him. A wave of embarrassment flashed at me. I quickly release my grip from him and turn my back to leave. “Dammnit I made it too obvious that I had been waiting to see him” I scolded myself inwardly as I turned feeling embarrassed.
Before I could complete the third foot step he held my hand and drew me closer forcefully so that I fell on his chest, i guess it wasn't that forceful though, maybe because I wasn't expecting it. We were so close that I could feel his soft breathing against my chest.
“ Do you miss me so much? ” he asked in his deep Alpha voice as he slid his hands around my waist drawing me closer. I don't know if it was his question, deep voice, closeness or hand on my waist that got me. All I noticed was that my cheeks started turning pink and my lips curled in a smile “ Damn it Selena, you're blushing” my mind snapped at me. As a werewolf without a wolf, I only have my mind to communicate with me, no wolf.
“Oh no, I shouldn't let him see me blushing” I replied inwardly as I quickly bent my head to avoid his gaze.
“No, no I didn't miss you, I mean how would I ?” I replied sharply to cover my embarrassment.
“ Then why do my mate’s cheeks turn pink all of a sudden” I could sense he was smiling while speaking, which embarrassed me more, I hurriedly covered my cheeks with my palm. “ It was just a …… errrmmm..” before I could come up with an excuse he lifted my chin to his face with his middle finger, making me have no choice but to stare at his cute face. He drew my hands off my face and gently placed a light pack on it. Damn it.
“ I like to see more of this pink face of my mate” he said and curled the side of his upper pink lip making him look more attractive. Somehow whenever he calls me mate I usually have a feeling of being owned and accepted. The butterflies in my Tommy rejoice happily. I couldn't hide my smile this time. I hit his chest playfully.
“ Don't get me wrong Alpha, I haven't agreed to be your mate” I rolled my eyes while speaking.
“ You're torturing me” he said while his eyes remained glued to mine. His expression was the most difficult thing to read right now.
“ Not actually, just trying to see if you're qualified” I folded my hands, tilted my head to the side, I knew I sounded like a madam trying to select an employee.
“ Why shouldn't you see if I'm qualified in other ways instead” he asked.
“ Then in what way is that ?” I expected him to reply but he kept quiet that was when I noticed a few of my buttons were loose and his gaze was totally fixed on my exposed cleavage. I coughed slightly to call back his attention but he didn't flinch. I took my hand to button up my shirt but then he drew my hands down and I ended up loosening one more button instead. I bit my lower lip when I realised what I just did. He held my wrist in haste and walked me to the bed as if he was in a hurry to do something.
“Lie here, I will be gentle and make sure you don't feel pain,” he said coldly.
My heart flew immediately, my brain was too occupied to comprehend. He was lost while staring at my exposed chest with dark eyes full of desire, now he asked me to lie, what does he want to do gently…..... I prayed it's not what I'm thinking. My eyes were glued to him as follow his command. Even though my heart never stopped racing, he brought out a package from a nearby drawer. He opened the package and I heard the sound of nylon. I shut my eyes tight immediately. “Is that a condom nylon?” I asked my mind but got silence as a reply.
Alpha Lucien rubbed his hands gently on my chest, and I became stiffened, unsure whether to open my eyes or keep them shut. I felt pain in my chest exactly on the wounded side, it was as if a nostril was blowing on the wound, which made me want to see what was wrong. I opened my eyes and saw Alpha Lucien placing his lips on my chest. My heart flew in shock.
“ Don't be scared, I promised I will be gentle with this” his voice came out cold and deep, and I flinched.
“But it's fine if you don't want me to…. Should I stop” He asked calmly while part of his body was lying on mine. The way he asked for permission made me feel important, and I began to crave his touch. I bit my lower lip seductively “You don't need to stop, we're mates”.
