Chapter 5 - Seduction

STRIKER

I am sure I chose someone else. Her scent matched the omega I chose, strong, sweet, alluring…Like flowers with a hint of wildness yet her face was so different.

I noticed the changed color of her hair and realized what’s the reason.

“ Lady Lana. ” I said.

She was still busy staring at my dick in shock that she just brushed with her nose. I have had many women seduce me, but not one of them ever attempted to grab my cock first thing after entering the room.

I knew she was trouble when Beatrice pointed at her through the balcony and asked me to choose her. We saw her devouring the liquid chocolate and her attempts at avoiding getting chosen were all a facade—Play hard to get—That’s the motto of these women. I knew many like her but the thing about them was…these women resisted having sex which was what I needed.

Once she refused, I would send her away early. Then we didn’t need to see each other ever again.

“ Are you done staring at it yet? ” I asked in a gruff tone when she refused to stop staring at my dick.

“ N—No. I mean Yes. Of course. Definitely. ” She took her eyes off my private parts and her azure eyes met mine.

Azure eyes were not common for an Alpha’s daughter in the North. These eyes were identification of the people of East—Tyson’s place. She had so many odd things going on about her that I wouldn’t even be surprised if she turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothes, an impostor.

That’s what I needed. A problematic woman. So she never got chosen as the Queen. That place belonged to Beatrice and until we were back together, I had to pretend to play house with these Omegas.

“ Get up. ” I rolled my eyes before taking a step back from the fallen Omega.

She obliged. Her hands fisted the silk dress which covered nothing of her milky skin and proportioned female body.

I was about to make things clear to her but in the next moment, she was stumbling over the dress and into my arm once more.

This time, I didn’t allow her to grab my balls and held her arms. The delicate dress gave up on her and ripped from the side, revealing the side of her waist, the whole slim leg, and her hip.

For a moment, I took in her smooth flesh. Then, I looked away, hissing in annoyance.

“ I am sorry. I am so sorry, Alpha King Striker. ” She groaned, her hands slithering over my clothed chest.

Pushing her back and balancing her on her feet, I inhaled a deep breath, her scent filling my nostrils impossibly.

I pinched her chin between my forefinger and thumb, lifting her head to have her look into my eyes—The eyes of the Lycan she must fear for the rest of the year if she wanted to live in peace.

“ Never say my name again. ” I growled.

She blinked at me innocently, her cheeks becoming rosy in color. “ Sure, as you wish Alpha King. ”

That was easy.

“ And don’t seduce me. ” I added.

“ That’s even more okay. ” She grinned, her teeth clean of the chocolate this time.

“ I don’t desire you tonight. ” I told her.

She would start showing her true colors soon. These were the typical things that traumatized Omegas like her.

“ Satan’s Buttocks. ” She squealed, her eyes twinkling. “ Things can’t get any better than this. ”

This was turning into a shitshow now. What was up her sleeve? She was Redley’s daughter—one of the Alphas who fucking always caused trouble for Dustin and was planning a rebellion spree against him. What was his daughter playing at? I had to figure it out.

“ I have no desire to sleep with you for the rest of my life, My King. I am glad we are on the same page. ” She added, grabbing my attention.

My hold over her chin tightened. Narrowing my eyes, I leaned in. She stopped breathing and watched with those wide doe eyes as if waiting for something.

“ Actually, I changed my mind. ” I sneered in her face.

She blinked before grinning wider. “ and what change is that? ”

She was a bold girl, specifically trained to pass all the tests and gain power here. I released her chin and stepped back.

“ Strip, Lady Lana. Let me see what I got myself for a year. ” I commanded, taking another step back to have a good look at her.

Her cheeks flushed, those fake innocent eyes widening in surprise. “ You want me to remove all my clothes? Like…the whole dress and the nonexistent undergarments? ”

Was she dumb?

I touched my lower lip with my thumb as my eyes raked her body. She had good curves but I was not about to be swayed by someone like her.

“ Remove everything. ” I nodded.

“ Are you sure? You just said you don’t want me. ” She reminded crudely.

What did Redley teach his daughter?

I frowned. “ Strip, Lady Lana, before I come there and take the dress off you myself. ”

“ You will? ” She backstepped.

I was restricted from using all my Alpha King rights over the Omega I have chosen or else, I wouldn’t be standing here, asking politely. I let out a breath through my mouth before taking a step forward.

My hair rose on its ends when she shrieked and ran straight to the door. Shocked, I watched her trying to open the door.

I released another heavy breath and approached her struggling body. Instinctively, my arm latched around her waist, and with ease, I picked her up, lifting her in the air and taking her away from the door. Her body pressed against mine, letting me feel her curves against my hard front.

Her ass was perfectly shaped. She thrashed, rubbing it over my crotch. I groaned, low in my throat.

“ Stop screaming. ” I demanded, my lips hovering above her left ear. “ and stop moving. ”

Damn the fuck! She could sense the hoarseness in my voice. I sank my teeth into my lower lip before lowering her body to the floor.

“ Now listen to me carefully… ” My dick was fucking hardening at the worst time. “ You will go out of this room and you will tell everyone you don’t want to sleep with me. ”

That way, she would automatically lose the most crucial test which would determine her fate. She would never be able to become the Queen if she didn’t know how to fulfill the sexual desires of the Alpha King.

“ Why don’t you do this yourself? It’s you who doesn’t want to do moody woody with me. ” She huffed, her butt beginning to wiggle against my cock once more.

I gripped her waist with my other hand and stopped her from making the situation worse between us.

“ You want to sleep with me tonight? ” I leaned closer until my lips were brushing against her ear, making her shiver involuntarily.

“ Ye—No. No way in Satan’s hell. ” She whispered under her breath, the same thing she screamed in my face before.

“ Then, do as I say and I will take care of you. ” My voice softened, a subtle hint of arousal mixing with pure business.

She got some good lessons at seducing, I had to admit.

“ I can, you know…do as you say, My King. ” She grabbed my arm and tried to pry me off her. “ but the feminist in me refuses. ”

She knew I couldn’t hurt her for a year. So much information she had.

“ Then prepare for the worst, little lamb. ” I licked the tip of her ear before letting her go.

Finding the escape easy, she ran for the door. I could hear her pounding heartbeat and shaky breaths as she succeeded in opening the door and made a run for it.

Court Lady Amanah was right outside to prevent this escape. When I saw her grabbing the poor Omega and keeping her from running away, a smirk curled my lips.

“ Let her go. She is not ready for it yet. ” I commanded.

“ Yes, Your Highness. ” She released the girl and she made a run for it without ever stopping to bother to look behind.

I bet she was scared shitless.

“ Amanah. ” I watched her back disappearing down the corridor before I turned to the other woman.

“ Yes, Your Highness. ” She kept her head bowed.

“ Show the guest her new castle life. ” Make her life hell.

Amanah got the message and lifted her head momentarily, a twisted grin playing over her lips. “ As you wish, Your Highness. ”

I nodded her way in acknowledgment. She scurried away, leaving me alone.

Taking this chance, I closed the door to my room, strolled to the study connected to it, and opened the hidden passage behind one of the walls.

My eyes stared into the darkness before I made my way to the other side of the passage, the room where I wanted to be.

Just as I stepped out of the passage on the other side, a soft body flew right into my arms.

“ You took so long. ” She groaned, beginning to work on the buttons of my shirt.

I gritted my teeth and pulled her off me. “ we made a deal. ”

“ I want you, Striker. Please. ” She grunted in my ear seductively.

I was hard but I was not honorless. “ it’s not appropriate. I made a promise to the council. I must not touch another woman as long as I have that Omega and she is not announcing to everyone that she doesn’t wish to sleep with me herself. I can’t have you until I have her. ”

“ Striker. ” Beatrice pleaded. “ Just for tonight, please. ”

“ Go back where you are needed. I am here to see you off. ” I couldn’t keep my lips from pressing against her temples in a harmless gesture.

“ I hate you. ” She huffed, taking her body off me.

“ Soon, it will be over. I promise. ” I assured, caressing her cheeks softly.
