After what seems like a long training session, I finally tell my dad that me and Jess were done for the day.
“Roxy it’s your birthday, go enjoy yourself!” He says giving me a single-arm hug and kissed me on the forehead. “In fact, go shopping. I put money on your account so that you can splurge a little. Do you think you’ll need more?” He asked while getting ready to go in his pockets to take out his wallet.
I stopped him, “Dad whatever you give me is more than enough, thank you.”
He smiles giving me another one-handed hug and then let’s me go.
As Jess and I walk away from the guys I spotted Alexander looking at me, not even paying attention to his beta—who I gracefully beat his ass when I returned from the car—speaking to him. His eyes traveled from the top of my head and made it all the way down to the sway of my hips. The longer he lingered at my ass, the darker his eyes grew. When he made eye contact with me, I made sure to tease him a little. I stuck my tongue out, curving it so that the tip of my tongue met the top of my lip and returned it back into my mouth, then I winked at him. The reaction I got out of him did not disappoint at all. He started growling so loud, a lot of the men backed away and looked around to see what’s causing this beast to anger him.
Seeing him like that, so enrage get's me so wet, I'm soaking.
“Roxy, reign that s**t in before everyone starts to smell you.” Jess says, making me blush.
“Jess you can smell me?” I asked, shocked that even a shewolf can scent me.
“Well yeah, I’m pretty sure anyone can smell that.” She says shrugging her shoulder and turning her head away from me.
‘Is she blushing?’ I thought to myself.
‘Roxy, I have an idea.’ Rose says to me excitedly.
‘I say we skip the experiment kissing stage and just bang it out…right here…right now.’ Rose says to me.
‘What the f**k is wrong with you Rose?’ I ask her.
‘I’m sorry, not really, but ever since that encounter with Alexander I’ve been horny as fuck.’ Rose whines.
‘Rose, Alexander is her mate and when the time is right, he’ll handle that. Plus, Jess is a woman. She’s not about to ‘bang it out’ with another female.’ Lucy says making Rose groan.
Jess finally starts up the car—quieting Lucy and Rose—and we head towards the road that will take us to the city.
***Alexander POV***
‘Alpha, are you okay?’ Brad says to me via mind link.
“Damn it, that woman. That woman is going to be the death of me and others if she keeps taunting me like this.” I say loud pacing back and forth in front of Brad.
“How dare she tease me like that and walk away. Does she know who I am?” I asked Brad. “I’m the freaking Supreme Alpha! Women submit to me just by my mere presence, but not her. No, she teases and taunts me as if this is a f*****g game.” I yelled at him.
“Alpha, relax please. This is just what she wants. She wants you to beg for her, to work for her.” He tells me.
“Don’t you think I f*****g know that?” I growled at him.
“Is everything alright her Alexander?” Lucas says while coming up to us.
As Brad was about to respond to him, I stopped him.
‘Maybe it’s my turn to have a little fun with her.’ I say to Brad in mind link. He looked at me confused.
‘Bro, what are you talking about?’ He asks, but I just waved him off.
“Lucas, I’m just going to be straight with you. Your daughter is my mate.” I tell him.
Lucas just stared at me with a blank look on his face, as if he was waiting for me to say something else. He then took his pinky finger and put it in his ear as if to clear something out of it.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t quite catch that. Can you repeat it again?” He says laughing.
“Your daughter, Roxy, is my mate. The one my wolf wants, my future Luna. She knows about this too. We, uh, ‘talked’ about it” I tell him a little bit more slowly this time.
Brad covers his laugh with a cough when I said ‘talked’ making me snarl at him.
“Are you serious?” He asks me.
“Yes.”
The second I said yes, he jumps so high in the air I thought he was about to fly!
“What a glorious day! My amazing daughter turns 18 and she’s fated to mate with the Supreme Alpha!” he shouts.
I noticed other men looked towards our direction and started whispering.
“Lucas, I’m excited to have found a mate as spectacular as her, but please lower it down. I will announce her as my Luna during the ball. Until then please keep this to yourself.” I tell him, which stops him immediately.
“I completely understand, would you like to come over? We are planning on surprising her with a dinner tonight and we would be honored to have you over.” Lucas says with excitement.
“I would be honored, but can we surprise her with my visit? I want it to be special.” I say to him with a mischievous smile.
‘Alpha, are you planning to…” Brad says, and I nodded.
She wants to taunt and tease me in front of other men, let’s see how she’ll like it when I do it in front of her family.
***Roxanne POV***
“Jess, I don’t know how you can shop like that! It’s exhausting.” I tell her after leaving the last dress shop.
“Come on, admit it. It was fun.” She laughs as she closes her car door and starts the engine.
“Fun for you, but torture for me.” I said under my breathe.
“Oh, stop it. At least we found the perfect dress for you to wear the ball. It sucks though that we won’t be able to match.” She pouts.
“I mean it doesn’t matter that we won’t have on the same dress. You’ll still going to look sexy for me when we go together.” I said to her, while touching her shoulder.
She blushes and turns her head away from me making me laugh. Then I heard he mumble, “What about Alexander?”
That made me stop.
The gorgeous man. The man that turns her on with just a mere gaze. The man that is supposedly her mate. I can’t talk about him or think about him. Just the thought of him making me wet, and I don’t need my friend smelling my arousal.
“Let’s just go home Jess. I don’t like being the city too long.” I tell her and she nods.
The way back to the pack house territory was so peacefully. The loud noise of the city disappearing and is replaced with sweet sound of river as we cross the small bridge. The sounds of the birds make as the day starts to turn into night. Don’t get me wrong I love the city; it’s always something to do there, and there’s a lot of restaurants that I can choose from. I just prefer the peaceful setting of my home. Although we don’t live in the pack house, our house is surrounded by nothing but trees, and rests on a ledge that overlooks the ocean.
As I’m looking at the sky, I noticed it starts to become dark. Not daytime turning into nighttime dark, but dark as in I can’t see anything. I looked at the forest and river and saw darkness spread across it, swallowing everything in its path.
“What the hell?” I say out loud, looking at Jessica to see if she’s seeing this. But when I looked at her, it wasn’t her.
“Who are you?” I say out. My body was filled with so much terror I couldn’t prepare to fight the intruder.
The person ignored me.
“Who are you!” I ask again but a little louder.
The person turns to me and the sight of her sent my heart racing.
It was me, but it also wasn’t. Her hair was matted and shriveled. Around her eyes were black as if she hadn’t slept for days. Her skin was dry and dirty and her faced was all scratched up.
“You let them do this to us. You stupid cunt. You let this happened.” She said. As she spoke, it was as if other voices were speaking through her.
Like the ones in my head.
The crazed me laughs a menacing laugh and starts attacking me, not paying attention that we were still on the road.
“You stupid bitch.”
“You’re worthless.”
“No one will care if we die!” Different voices were saying through her as she was attacking me, scratching me all over and grabbing my hair.
I closed my eyes and tried to control my breathing, but it wasn’t helping. She was still attacking me, laughing while going at it.
When I opened my eyes, my crazed reflection disappeared. There was no one in the driver’s seat. The car started to swerve back and forth, and I screamed.
‘I’m going to die. I’m really going to die.’ I said to myself.
‘Roxy open your eyes.’ Rose says to me
‘Roxy, this is a dream. Open your eyes.’ Lucy says.
‘Open your eyes Roxy.’ They both say in unison repeatedly.
But I can’t.
I watched as the car swerves off the road and off the cliff and for that brief moment I was happy.
I was finally going to be free of this pain, this never-ending torment.
I closed my eyes and watched as the car kept falling to the ground below us.
Then there was nothing.
