A favor

Camilla POV

The words slip past my lips before I can stop them. Before I know it,my hand wraps around the Alpha's arm in a possessive grip.

Alpha Theo turns to look at me then at my hand and an indiscernible emotion flickers in his eyes.

My mind screams at me to let go but my hand has a different plan.

The lady looks at me as if she is ready to commit murder in broad daylight.

“ This is…” She trails off, looking between me and Alpha Theo.

“ I'm sorry,look at my manners. I am Camilla, Alpha Theo's date tonight.” I introduce myself without batting an eyelid. Alpha Theo clears his throat and I tilt my head to look at him. He has an expression that screams ‘what the hell’ on his face.

“ I kinda got caught up with my friends and couldn't accompany you earlier. You don't blame me, right Daddy?” I blink my eyes coquettishly at Alpha Theo and I almost burst out laughing when he swallows.

“ Of course not. I don't blame you.” Alpha Theo croaks out the words and I reward him with a smile.

“ Uhm, excuse me. I'll be on my way.” The lady suddenly announces,an uncomfortable feeling painted on her face. I raise my brows challengingly. Taking it as a cue, she walks away. I can feel Alpha Theo's burning gaze on me all this time.

When she is out of the vicinity,I finally muster the courage to face the Alpha.

I give him a nervous smile to escape the inquisitive look on his face.

“ What the hell was that?” Alpha Theo asks,his voice raised. I swallow and look away. The courage from earlier slowly dissipates and I begin to fidget with my dress.

“ Camilla,I asked you a question and as your Alpha,I expect an answer.” He repeats. This time, his voice is gentler. I turn to look at him and blink my doe-like eyes.

“ I don't like her coming close to you.” I blurt out and the Alpha raises his eyebrows at me.

“ Why? It's not like we are mates.” He probes. Right,my reaction was uncalled for. I acted like I owned him. Truth is,I didn't plan it,I just found myself annoyed by the lady's open declaration of interest for the Alpha.

“ What? Are you angry that I drove her away?” I snap,an unfamiliar sense of irritation creeping insíde me. The Alpha doesn't say a word, only folds his hands around his chest and regards me.

“ She doesn't look like a good person. I saved you but since you think I'm nosy, I'll leave.” I declare before turning around to walk away. I don't get away when the Alpha's grip halts me.

“ We will talk about this. After the party,meet me in my office.” He instructs before walking away. I bite my lower lip and an immature sense of victory creeps inside me.

The rest of the party passes in a blur. I find myself often thinking back to the Alpha's order.

“ Earth to Camilla!” A voice snaps me from my day dream. I turn to face Gina. The first thing I notice is her swollen lips. It seems like my brother had a very pleasant evening.

“ I was asking if you want to go home with us or stay longer?” She asks and I shake my head.

“ I'll just stick around for a few minutes.” I reply and Gina nods before walking away. I watch as she tells Alex something. He turns to look at me and I nod at him. Only then does he take her hand and leave the ballroom.

The party is almost over and most of the guests have left. I scan around and when I don't see Hector in my vicinity,I sigh in relief. I wouldn't be surprised if he is somewhere doing what he does best; whoring around.

At this point,I don't give a shit whoever he fucks. I can bed all the omegas in this pack for all I care. I thank the moon Goddess we hadn't marked each other or else it would have been hell everytime he cheated on me.

After making sure the coast is clear,I skip away and head straight to the Alpha's office. My heart races with every step I take.

I navigate through the familiar paths and finally halt outside the Alpha's office. It's located in the opposite direction of our house so I am sure I won't be running into Alex here.

It would be hard to explain what I am doing in the Alpha’s wing at this time of the night.

I knock on the door with hesitation and a moment later,the door is pulled open, revealing Alpha Theo in all his glory.

He has already shed his suit jacket and rolled the sleeves of his shirt to the elbows.

Alpha Theo opens the door wide, ushering me inside. It's not the first time I am in his office but it's the first time I am here under such circumstances. I am among the pack's strong female warriors, something I inherited from being of beta blood.

I step insíde and he shuts the door behind us. I watch as Alpha Theo surveys my body with his hunger filled eyes. Every curve,every meander in my body,he takes it all. His eyes linger for far too long on my exposed breasts before he looks away and puts space between us.

“ I believe we need to talk.” He croaks out,as if he is restraining himself. He is wearing that look he always has when he is about to scold me. Did I mention that the Alpha is like a father to Alex and I? After the death of our parents who lost their lives protecting the pack, the Alpha raised us. He was the father I lost while young.

“ I have always been lenient to you, Camilla.You are among the best warriors my pack has so…”

I cut his rambling off by stepping close. Dangerously close such that I can feel his quickening heartbeat.

“ I agree that we need to talk. But, that's not what we are talking about.” I whisper and watch as his expressions harden and eyes flicker with a hunger no food can satiate.

Alpha Theo takes a deep breath. Then another and regards me.

“ What do you want to talk about?”

I break into a smile. I have him exactly where I wanted him.

“You owe me a favor, Alpha. I am here to collect it.” I announce and watch his eyes narrow in confusion.

“ A favour you say?” He asks and I nod.

A sudden realisation hits him and his expressions soften.

He watches me with a hint of interest.

“ Let's hear it.” He gives me an intent look and I grin at him.

“ I want you to fuck me, Alpha.”
