“How did it go?” Eli asked me the moment I went back to where Tyler was seated.
I had to fight back a blush as I said, “I’m going to the bonfire.”
“Great,” he flashed me a dazzling smile which did nothing to my butterflies, contrarily to Alex’s scarce smiles.
I chose not to say that I’d be going to the bonfire with the alpha. That would be awkward. Besides, it was complicated enough trying to figure out the man’s motives for what had transpired.
Was I the new flavor of the month? Was I to be his new plaything? If I were to be honest with myself, I didn’t care, as long as I could call him mine for some time.
It wasn’t long before I was back to my room. I showered and then chose to put on a black tank top with denim shorts. I kept my make-up simple with only lip gloss and eyeliner.
I was about to head out to the alpha’s office when there was a knock on the door.
He stood there, in all his regal beauty, looking every bit the dominant alpha he was.
“I see you are not ready,” he commented in a disgruntled tone.
I couldn’t help but furrow my eyebrow, “I’m ready.”
“Obviously not,” he quipped, his hand reaching to the hem of my shorts. “What do these even cover?”
“They are called shorts for a reason,” I rolled my eyes at him, earning myself a growl that had desire pooling at my entrance.
I was about to leave the room but he entered instead and I had no choice but to back out. He closed the door behind him and said, “Go get changed, Jade.”
My eyes narrowed at him. I put my hands above my waistline and said, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Do you want to go to the bonfire, yes or no?” He raised an eyebrow.
“I’m going,” I huffed as I tried to sidestep and go for the door.
He held me back and then brought my front flush with his, making me even more aroused if that were possible.
His mesmerizing green eyes were black again, and I couldn’t help but wonder if he had always had so little control over his wolf.
“I don’t like the idea of having hormonal teenagers drool over you,” he said in a guttural tone, make me clamp my legs shut… I would do anything to get some friction at that point.
He leaned down, and I briefly wondered if he was going to kiss me again, but he just nuzzled my neck instead, making my breath hitch.
“Be a good girl and change into something less provocative,” he said against my neck.
I tried my best not to moan at the feeling and succeeded.
I rolled my eyes at him, grabbed a daring dress out of my closet and then went to the bathroom to change.
If he thought the shorts were provocative, I’d love to hear what he had to say about this red dress which I had bought for partying. It was sleeveless, had a plunging neckline, reached mid-thigh, and hugged my curves like second skin. I felt quite confident in it.
I went out of the bathroom, and found alpha dearest sitting on the bed, looking at a framed picture of me with my parents.
“All ready,” I told him, my poker face on.
He looked at me. He drank me in and his eyes kept flickering from green to black.
“You have three seconds to find another outfit,” he growled.
I rolled my eyes, and took two steps towards the door before he grabbed me by the wrist. I spun around, my eyes challenging him to say something. He didn’t say anything but claimed my lips in a scorching kiss.
Before I realized what I was doing, I had my legs wrapped around him, and was grinding on his length. He bit on my lower lip, making me more wanton, and then our tongues danced and battled for dominance.
I sighed when we broke apart for air, even as I could feel his hands kneading my ass cheeks. The dress had ridden enough to enable him to do that without the clothing barrier.
His forehead was against mine. Instead of savoring the moment, I said, “We’re going to be late.”
“Only because you decided to be a naughty girl and tempt the beast in me,” he said, his lips set into a thin unyielding line.
“So you do agree that my shorts were better,” I countered.
“Both outfits are outrageous,” he shook his head negatively.
I pouted.
“You’re mean, alpha,” I tell him as I place my feet down.
“I’m just a hot-blooded male,” was his response as he eyed my neckline, hunger glaringly obvious in his eyes. “The next time you call me alpha, so help me god…”
“What will you do?” I challenged, “Bend me over your knees and give me a spanking?”
I shook my head at my own suggestion.
“You’d enjoy that too much for it to qualify as a punishment,” he grunted.
“I’m going to put on jeans,” I told him on a sigh, changing the subject before I did something really outrageous like dragging the man to my bed and getting him out of my system.
I went back to the bathroom and it wasn’t long before we were heading out of my room, with him complimenting my outfit. I rolled my eyes at him.
“The bonfire is for high school students,” I told him as we were leaving the pack house, under the curious stares of many fellow pack members. “How are you going to explain your presence?”
“I don’t have to explain anything,” he told me dismissively as we went into the forest.
Seeing as I was with the alpha, not many dared to approach me.
Then, I caught a glimpse of Eli, talking to a beautiful redhead.
I was about to head there when Alex stopped me. “Where to?”
“Just going to spend some time with Eli,” I shrugged.
“He looks busy,” he retorted coldly. “Let him be.”
“What’s the fun of going to a bonfire with people my age if you’re going to act like a protective chaperon at every turn?” I arched an eyebrow at him.
“I’m going to ignore the attitude for I don’t want to ruin your evening,” he narrowed his eyes at me, “but don’t challenge me.”
I was about to retort something when a leggy blonde came to us, but not just any blonde the one I had met the other day, one of his hook-ups.
“I was looking for you, alpha,” she said, completely ignoring me.
I, despite my best efforts not to, glared at her.
“What is it?” He asked flippantly.
“I was wondering if you’d care for a drink. You have been so busy with pack matters that you barely call for me lately,” she purred.
“So, you hunted the man down,” I muttered although both of them could hear me, “stalker-ish, I like it.”
She glowered at me but I merely rolled my eyes at her. “I’ll leave you two to settle your private matters in private.”
“Jade,” he called me name. It was halfway between a growl and a plea.
“Yes, alpha?”
He growled at me and before I knew it, I was over his shoulder.
“Don’t seek me out again,” he told the desperate she-wolf as he headed out with me on his shoulder.
I hit his back and he growled at me, “Hit me one more time and I’ll show you just how mean of an alpha I can be.”
I stopped at once, only for my bottom to be spanked.
I yelped. I could feel stares on us as he marched towards the pack house.
Was he crazy? I thought to myself as I blushed.
