” No Master.” She muttered with her head bowed down. It was obvious he was starting to get pissed off by her attitude.
” Then do you not like Ice creams, cause I heard humans do.” He said and hoped for a sincere answer.
Maybe that was why she was uninterested in the whole thing, maybe she hated Ice creams. If only he had asked her before jumping into conclusion.
” I do like it Master.” She said and watched him sigh out of relief. She found it hard to believe he could act all nice and sweet to her.
Could be your last days Anny. We all know we feed Pets before we kill em so enjoy your last moments darling.
The voice said.
Well even if she had to die, she could at least die happy.
She thought and grabbed the menu lying in front of her, running a quick check through it. While growing up she had learn to read and write, her Father was an educated man and wanted same for all his Children.
” I will go for Vanilla, Master.” She said.
Alac stared at her in disbelief, he couldn’t believe she could read. She was the first human, he came across that could, others could barely read their own names.
Guess they are more things to unravel about his Pet. Maybe it was what she was taking about.
He thought.
” Okay pet.” He said and signaled to the waiterress to come over and a chubby lady in her twenties did. She had her brown hair packed in a ponytail and had on a white shirt and black shirt with a smile on her face. Anny pondered if she ever got tired of smiling all day or if it was part of their rules.
” Hello Sir, I am Alby and how may I be of help?.” She said with a smile still plastered on her face.
” Hi Alby, we would like Chocolate for myself and Vanilla for her.” He said and the waitetess nodded while walking away.
He knew Anny would have being shocked by him referring to her as “her” even though it was against their rules. Here, pets are considered as non- living thugs so their feelings or thoughts, don’t matter.
Well it wouldn’t hurt to treat her special, one day.
He told himself.
In two minutes, their orders got delivered to their table, carefully placed in the bowls with two small white plastic spoon. He pushed Anny’s order to her side of the table and signaled her to start eating.
She was happy she would taste something sweet since ages and dived the spoon in it, scooping our some.
Here you go sweet little ice cream, on your way to belly town.
She said and let it in her mouth, her tongue around it, trying to get the sweet taste over all her mouth.
Yummy.
She muttered silently and continued to scoop her ice cream.
Alac was relieved she really liked it. He watched her scoop them into her mouth. Her eyes at alert ad her head dancing in a rhythm to whatever it was that she was humming. Seeing her reminded him of Aliya, she too used to humm and dance whenever she ate something sweet.
Sweet little child. Only Heaven knows how she is fairing wherever she is.
He thought.
Aliya was a memory he wanted to put behind him but seeing his pet brought them back. They both had the same level of innocence and sweetness. He had to admit that he still misses her, a lot.
” Why are you not eating Master, it’s melting.” Anny said, she had noticed since he had been staring at her and had to voice out when she couldn’t bear the feel of it on her bare neck.
” Oh, I will now Pet.” He said smiling then dived his spoon into his ice cream, letting the coldness and sweetness run down his throat.
” So do you like it?.” He asked as soon as they stepped back into the car.
” Hmm hmm.” She hummed and nodded.
” Well I am glad you do Pet.” He said and smiled at her while she shyly looked away.
Anny felt her heart responding in a weird manner, like it wanted to jump out of her best.
Get a grip of yourself heart, this isn’t someone you jump at.
She told it.
” Humm pet, can I ask you something. ” He asked and stopped waiting for her permission to.
What’s was wrong with him? Why was the good guy coming out? He didn’t permission from anyone not to talk more of a pet, one he owned.
” Hmm Hmmm, go on Master.” Anny said, weird that he needed her permission to say or ask her anything. Even If she had said no, he would still ask all the same.
Weird attitude.
She thought.
” Oh okay. Hummm I was thinking it’s time that I know your name. ” He said then looked away shyly.
How could he not have asked her name since he got her? He was clearly a monster.
He thought.
” Annabel Master, it’s Annabel.” She let the name roll down her lips and felt good from saying it. It had being forever since anyone asked her or called her by her name. She sure missed her family and friends and wondered how life was treating them.
” Anna.. bel… okay.” He said and stared back at the magazine in his hands. Enough of the familiarity, it was time to act like a boss.
The drive had being a silent one till they got home. No one said a word or another to one another even her Master acted cold all of a sudden.
She started to wonder if he was suffering from a brain disorder, maybe a ” Multi personality disorder” that would definitely explain all his weird acts.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
” Thank you Master.” She said, the moment they walked into the room. Growing up, her mother taught her manners and that included saying thank you whenever someone gave them things.
” It’s okay Annabel.’ He said and watched thee surprised look on her face. ‘ Can I at least call you that.” He asked not wanting to offend her or get on her bad leg.
For Aliya.
He muttered.
” Of course Master, you can.” She said, not still sure that she heard him correctly.
Did he just act all nice with her? Okay this dream was starting to piss her off, nature had better start explaining what exactly was happening. Was he trying to get out to quit or what?.
She thought.
Nooe Anny, we both know you can’t quit. No law supports that unless you want your head in a tray served as dinner. What is the biggie in him being nice, all you have to do is enjoy the moment.
” Enjoy the moment.” She said out loud and Alac turned to look at her.
” Huh?.” He was curious as to what made her say that.
” Nothing Master, just….. Hummm I just want to use the restroom.” She said awkwardly and walked into the bathroom. She almost got herself killed there, Master might have killed her If he knew what she was thinking about.
She stepped out into the room only to find her Master in his bathrobe too, revealing his chest and the hair lying on it. he sent her a smile and her legs wobbled.
What was wrong with her? Why was she so conscious of him or his presence.
” Oh you are done, I will be right back. I have to use the shower but just get ready, u want to feed on you this night.” He said and walked into the bathroom, swaying his buttocks in rhythm to the movement of his legs.
Feed on her? This night?. The words sent shiver down her spine and beads of sweats broke down her forehead.
Why was this words making her lose control of her body?.
She thought.
Perhaps it was because it was the same word Mackie had said on the night they make love.
Mackie? Her heart broke. Why did she have to remember him again? Just when she was starting to get happy and moving on?
He is part of you Anny.
The voice responded.
She wondered how well the wedding was coming up? It was really lone since she last saw him, he barely joined during breakfast or dinner. Always in his room doing things best known to him.
What if he is depressed Anny? What if the thoughts of ending his life crossed his mind? What if he us trying to starve himself to death? Or what if he is thinking of running away?.
Well she wasn’t bothered if he did, he should be man enough to confront his Uncle if he really was unhappy with his bride but no, he chose to stay silent and torture himself.
Alac walked into the room. He had shaved his beards, that explain what he took so long in there. His towel hanging below his waist, revealing some flesh with a dark line tracing to where she didn’t want to imagine.
Why? Why? Why are you attracted to a monster?.
She asked herself. Of all the Alphas in the Solve town, she had to like the view of a mean one. The thought of liking him disgusted her. He was nothing but a killer and that wouldn’t change.
” Is there anything you want to say.” Alac asked her, he had felt someone staring and there were the only two in his room.
” No… Mas… ter. ” She stammered.
” Okay Pet but if you do have any then feel free to spill it out ” He said, sent her a smiled then turned the other way to focus on whatever it was, he was doing.
Spill it out? Oh really? She really wanted to spill out the truth to his face, wanted him to know what she really thought of him but couldn’t. She smelt death in him and couldn’t bear to be the saviour to that.
Alac dressed up in his home wear since he wasn’t planning to step out of the house and sat down on the sofa behind Anny.
” Come here Pet.” He said and beckoned to her.
She knew he was going to feed on her and knew it would be so painful and harsh since he hadn’t feed on her for weeks now.
” Sit.” He ordered and she did as untrusted. Clutching onto her gown and closing her eyes.
Alac brought his fangs closer to her neck and stopped seeing how afraid she was.
Why was she scared of him? That wasn’t the first time feeding on her, maybe in weeks but all the same it wasn’t that bad. He knew he had to calm her down before feeding on her to avoid her dyingout of shock. He brought his hand closer to hers and placed them on it, wrapping his big palm over hers. This made her open her eyes in shock. She was confused as to why her Master and a Werewolf would want to come in physical contact with a pet. Werewolves were supposed to hate her kind, at least that was what she grew up believing.
” Calm down Pet, I don’t bite. Okay maybe I do but it won’t sting I promise.” He said to calm her down and watched her settle well on the sofa.
” Okay Master.” She replied, a bit calm, hoping he would stick to his promise.
” Hmm hmm hmmm.” He hummed and dipped his fangs into her neck, he could see her squeeze the edge of her dress laying helplessly in her palm.
Sorry Anny but I really have to do this right now.
He craved for blood, fresh one and he had to get it now and there.
