Chapter Six: Pandora’s POV

Book:Her Alpha's Rejected Mate Published:2024-11-25

Rolan stared at me with his eyes widened in surprise. I guessed that my words had surprised him, but I wanted to be with him that night. He was there for me and he didn’t look down on me despite knowing my background, so why couldn’t I have an exhilarating night with him?
“You want me to kiss you? Are you sure?” He asked, his voice laced with emotions.
“I’m a grown woman, Rolan, and what I want right now is for you to kiss me.” I paused and looked into his eyes so that he would see my hunger.
“I won’t force you, though. I’m sorry for being overbearing,” I rushed my words and clutched my bag, ready to return home when I felt a grip on my wrist.
He twirled me around, drawing me closer to him, making me gasp.
“Don’t leave, Pandora. I want to kiss you too,” He said and lowered his head, his eyes settling on my lips as I felt my heart thumping hard against my chest.
Who would have imagined that I’d be having my first kiss just after my mate rejected me?
I batted my lashes slowly, anticipating his alluring red lips merged with mine. He brought his face closer until there was no more distance between us, then he delved in fiercely.
I was taken aback by his ferocity even though I was the one who asked for the kiss.
His tongue nibbled on my lips but I was at loss of what to do, so I followed his lead and did everything he did. I felt a tingling feeling in my stomach and between my legs as I enjoyed how he brought my fantasies of my first kiss to life.
I’d wanted it to be my mate, but he was better as I could feel the tenderness and strong longing he had for me.
He pulled back, my cheeks flushed as I gazed at him hazily.
“You’re perfect, Pandora.” He admitted and tucked a straying strand of my hair behind my ear.
“Thank you, Rolan.” I replied shyly, feeling hot inside. “That was my first kiss, in case you’re wondering why I was inexperienced.” I admitted, causing his mouth to slack.
“Really?”
“Yes,” I said and lowered my lashes.
“I’m honored, Pandora.” He said then checked his wristwatch. “I think I should drop you at home, it’s late already and your parents might be worried about you.”
My heart melted with his concern for me, but I didn’t want to go home to my parents. I wanted to spend more time with him even though it wasn’t right.
“No! Don’t take me home. Take me to your place instead.”
He let out a sigh and propped his arm against his waist. Then he held my shoulders, “Look, Pandora, I know that you are tired and maybe hurt because of what Derrick did but you really have to go home and rest so that you wouldn’t make rushed decisions.”
I huffed and flung his hands off my shoulders.
“You really think I’m a child, huh? I know what I want and I’m saying right now that I want to be with you.” I yelled and he pulled me in for another rough kiss.
My body hummed with desire at his touch as he palmed my face and trailed his fingers to my waist.
“I’ll take you to my little apartment where I’m staying for the meantime, Pandora, but I can’t promise that you’ll return home the same way.” He croaked, his eyes brimming with lust.
I swallowed and exhaled. “Take me, Rolan.”
He led me into his house and then to his room which was dimly lit with a blue fluorescent light. It gave me a weird feeling which filled me with anticipation.
“Your house is nice.” I said shyly and held my bag nervously.
He noticed my slightly terrified demeanor and grinned.
“Relax, Pandora, I don’t bite. Not yet at least. Thank you for the compliment anyways.” He said and winked.
I nodded and realized that he was trying to be polite with me. An idea flashed into my mind which I was very ready to execute.
“Where’s the bathroom?” I asked and he pointed at a door which was behind the wardrobe.
I followed his guide and entered the bathroom then turned on the shower. I stripped my clothes off including my underwear until I was totally naked, then I went under the shower and had a quick bath.
My palms turned sweaty as I got ready to execute my plan. Maybe I was acting against my principles, but Rolan wasn’t going to act except I pushed him.
There was a white towel on the rack so I wrapped it around my body and folded my clothes. It was short, exposing my thighs and my arm but I had to take a bold step.
“Are you done already?” He asked with his shirt unbuttoned, revealing his smooth tanned chest.
He took off his shirt and was left with his black pants while he stared at me indecisively. I kept standing at my spot, admiring his glorious body and wondering why I had a crush on Derrick, who wasn’t as handsome as the man standing in front of me, posed like a Greek god.
“I’m done bathing, but I want something else.” I said softly.
“What…”
He couldn’t complete his statement as I tugged at the hem of the towel and it fell to the ground, leaving me stark naked.
His eyes devoured me hungrily while his muscles flexed. “Pandora… I told you that I couldn’t promise that you’ll return home the same way.”
I nodded and approached him slowly, feeling more confident as I got to him.
“I had that at the back of my mind when I took off my towel, Rolan. Can’t you see how badly I want you? What’s stopping you from taking me?”
“I don’t deserve you,” He replied tenderly.
“That should be my concern and not yours. Now do what you want with me.” I ordered and he hoisted me up and wrapped my legs around his waist.
