It was an offense to disobey a directive from the Alpha, a serious one at that. Every single werewolf across the community knew not to defy an order from their respective Alphas. Especially if the Alpha in question was the most vicious man in the werewolf community.
So why was I having second thoughts about meeting the Alpha this morning?
I had questions, my petite self couldn't help but wonder about some things. Like why was I suddenly getting the attention of the Alpha male? Why now? I mean, he hadn't really breathed my way before that incident in the forest.
Why did I even let him touch me? Yes I found him extremely attractive, hell, every female and some males would definitely agree. It didn't explain why I'd blindly allowed him to go down on me though.
I was ashamed of myself.
I knew he had almost had sex with every woman around here. I hadn't really seen them in action, but there had been many multiple women, claiming to have had the pleasure of warming up his bed. As much as I hated believing in baseless rumours, this one seemed quite true beyond reasonable doubt.
Some had even gone as far as fighting over him. I knew I wasn't special, a witch, a loner and a nobody in his pack, he must have done what he did out of pity. Maybe he'd noticed how no man in the pack looked my way. Maybe he was doing his work as the Alpha, making sure that his subjects were comfortable.
He was my first sexual encounter, possibly my last. But was I supposed to feel this way? this weird yet almost warm feeling. I wasn't any special, I mean the pack members made sure to remind me almost daily.
Had he exhausted all the unmated females? That had to be it. He had no other reason giving me that mind numbing pussy lick, right? And the shameful part is that I would totally let him do more than that without putting up a fight.
The more I thought about him, the more I wanted to defy him, test him, push him, see what punishment he'd table out for me. The thought of him using me for his sexual desires had me finally coming to a decision though'. I wouldn't let any male use me, not even Alpha Ryker.
You should never let your body do the thinking for you. I talk from experience with Tamara.
Mum would repeat those words. Sometimes even a number of times in a day. That is why I would stay as far as I could from the Alpha.
My alarm clock went off at exactly 5:45 AM, the annoying sound snapping me out of my thoughts. I had set it up the previous night, wanting to leave for the office 15 minutes to 6 AM. However,things were different now, I was still in bed.
I knew I had to face Alpha Ryker sooner or later. He would obviously want to know why I didn't show up. So what was supposed to tell him? That I was not comfortable being around him? That I knew he was out to get in my pants and toss me out?
I had lived most of my adult life alone, I was accustomed to talking alone and touching myself. Then all of a sudden I found myself enjoying not only the company of my leader, but also lusting over him.
'So you're also a thinker.' My head snapped up so fast, my heartbeat racing instantly. I was startled, my thoughts long forgotten as my eyes met with his cold ones.
'You ... " I swallowed my words out of fear, forcing saliva down my throat in a loud gulp
Shocked you?' He cut me off, leaning against my open bedroom door nonchalantly.
This was the second time he caught me off guard. How was he doing it? getting in stealthily without any noise whatsoever? For a man of his stature his movement was quite furtive.
'How did you get in? I could have sworn I had locked the front door the previous night. I made sure to lock it before I went to sleep.
'This. He lifted up a bunch of keys, wiggling them in the air calmly. How had I even not seen them or heard them jiggling? I couldn't help but wonder why he had keys to my house.
'Your mum gave me a spare before she passed on.' He answered my unsaid thoughts, damn this man was full of surprises. Or maybe it was the only logic question he guessed I would ask.
I don't understand.' I was confused, I mean why would my deceased mother(may her soul rest in peace) leave the spare keys to him?
That's not important now, it's half past 6. He pointed out, indicating that the matter wasn't up for discussion at that time.
'Yeah, so what? ' I sassed.
Oh What an attitude you got there little witch. ' He stepped forward tenderly, his eyes flickering back and forth from my eyes to my lips. The simple action was aggressively pushing my body to sexual submission.
Whatever thoughts I had before he came in proved difficult to act on them. The man was sex on a stick, his enchanting looks acted like a magnet, and my body could only put up little to no resistance.
'Tamara. ' He calmly addressed me.
'Ye-s. ' I shamefully stuttered.
'You disobeyed me. ' He stated the obvious.
He was now a few feet from the bed, staring at me intently. He remained silent for a while, probably waiting for me to speak up. When he realised I wasn't going to say anything, he spoke.
'You know, for such an angelic face you sure like trouble. ' He smirked in a millisecond, before his expression turned completely.
'Lose the covers. ' He ordered, his gaze becoming somehow heavy.
To be continued…
'Huh?' My voice was barely audible. I was nude under the duvet, my upper body covered by an old worn out tee I usually slept in. I couldn't let him see my body in a moment of weakness. I swear I hated how feeble he made me feel under his gaze and his extremely sexual alluring voice.'12 hours. ' He pointed out.What? ' I questioned in confusion, clutching the duvet tightly with my hands.'You've broken our deal in less than 12 hours. ' He stated.'But.'And in addition to that, you've defied me within the same 12 hours. ' He added.He was awfully calm, but wasn't that how leaders were supposed to act? Slow to anger, with a lot of patience and a kind of unrealistic understanding?'I hate repeating myself Tamara. ' His tone had taken a slight change, lower and more weighty.The Alpha meant business.I didn't know why my hands were shaking, gradually losing hold on the duvet or why the room had suddenly began heating up. My voice box and my tongue seemed to be in a collaboration to rende
Quit slacking around you filthy witch, the table won't set itself. ' Mrs Kagwe sneered, her protruding teeth coming into viewI still didn't understand why the Alpha had resolved to giving me duties at the pack house. I rued the moment I had angered the Alpha wolf. Thinking about the abounding tasks that awaited me had me mumbling to myself.'Hey yo twerp!' Monica clapped her perfectly manicured hands together. Her annoying shrill voice brought a scowl to my face. I would have shot back a rejoinder but just like always, I held my tongue.'Hurry the fuck up before the teens get back from training.'I picked up the last bowl of orange fruits from the granite kitchen counter. Even through all the shouting from the two women, I had still managed to put the fruits in the bowl. I made my way to the general dining area briskly yet carefully. I didn't want to miss a step, fall down and end up breaking the glass bowl.I however failed to see the foot that was put out and in a blink of an eye,
I knew he was behind me, but I refused to turn back and look at him. Honestly, I just wanted him to leave me alone. I didn't want to be anywhere near him after what transpired earlier in my house. He had acted like a bipolar person.Of all the places you would have gone to wait up, you chose to sit here?'What is wrong with sitting on nicely cut green grass and enjoying free fresh air? ' I questioned back.'You're hurt.' He ignored my question.He must have seen my bruising elbow, because I was no longer clutching it. After a while, he moved closer to me before speaking again.'Heal yourself little witch.' He let authority slip in his voice. I had no energy to argue with him, and even if I did, the pain that I was experiencing wouldn't allow me to.Deciding that healing my elbow would help get rid of him from my space as soon as possible, I went ahead with it.I placed my left hand on the elbow, closed my eyes, let the healing power flow through my veins and chanted.Kwa dunia kwa hew
** Ryker **I leaned on a tree by the training grounds chatting abstractedly with my beta. My eyes swept methodically through the training grounds, searching for Tamara.The little witch affected me in ways beyond my understanding. Her limited presence turned me into an horny dog. I couldn't even think properly when ...'Alpha .. ' My Beta called me, snapping me out of my thoughts.'What is it, Jayson. ' My irritation showed off.He was my closest friend after all. One of the reasons why he qualified to be my beta, well apart from the beta blood running in his system.Are you looking for someone?' 'What if I was? ' I snapped.'Sappy doesn't look good on you my Alpha friend. ' Jayson drawled the words, smirking and enjoying the vexatious expression on my faceJayson and I had grown together, with his father being the beta and mine being the Alpha. We did almost everything together, including girls.He was the brother that I never had and he always understood me. He never once saw me as
***Tamara ***Alpha Ryker backed orders to his warriors, giving very precise instructions to them.He had divided them into groups to cover each part of the vast pack lands. They were to simply search, detect and fish out anything that was out of place along the borders.Bring the mut who dared to infiltrate my pack .' He ordered in a serious directive tone.'Alive. ' His grave clear voice was heard as his long tongue snaked on his bottom lip, licking the soft pink flesh in anticipation. No doubt in my mind that he would draw pleasure from imposing torture onto the culprit.A chorus of 'yes Alpha' rang on the meadow followed by strident footsteps.The question was ...Would they really find the supposed infiltrator, or was 'he' already gone?A million thoughtsjumbledinmymindas the frontal lobe of my brain tried evoking different scenarios, on how the bloodied paper could have gotten to the meadows.What if the Alpha was overlooking something, anything?My late mother told me that her
*** Alpha Ryker ***My ears perceived her words clearly even though they had been whispered. My vision zeroed on her petite frame, wanting to confirm the mere truth of what she had just uttered.However, her contrite expression rid off whatever ounce of uncertainty I had about her words. I wanted to ask her questions, I needed her to explain exactly how and when she started hearing my thoughts.I didn't mean to. ' She softly muttered.Chuckling humorously, I pinched my nose between my thumb and index finger. ' You didn't mean to ... you say.'My nostrils flared at her blatant lie.' Then why the fuck did you wait till now to tell me?'She shivered at the ascend on my voice scale. Iwasn't vigilant of the change of my own testosterone until her body visibly shivered out of fear.'I uuh ... I only heard you back at the meadow for the first time, I swear.' Her hardly audible voice filtered through my ears.'Stop lying to me! Fucking stop it before I ... ' I stopped for a moment to recollec
***Tamara ***I wiped my tears with the back of my right hand desperately, kicking invisible pebbles with my sneakers. My heart felt just a tad bit heavy, enough to keep my tear ducts working.The chilly wind that blew in the night bit and pricked my exposed skin, causing small bumps to layer up my outer body tissue. The intensity of the Alpha's utterances however outweighed the cold.I struggled to grasp the reality of the Alpha finding my truthful explanation rather dubious. As if being doubtful wasn't sufficient, he had gone ahead and accused me of being traitorous like my parents.If only he knew the truth and the weight of whatever had happened years back.I traipsed along the gravel path, ignoring wholly the scraping sound my feet made, as they trailed lazily on the ground. I tried figuring out how I was able to capture his thoughts.My mother's words had began making sense now, like she said they would.Flash back'Honey, do you know how much your father loved you?' Mother sudd
*** Ryker ***My two hundred pack members (pups not included) chattered away in the open meeting pack grounds awaiting my speech. I stood on the podium stage made of oaken woods. Behind me, my beta stood alongside Theodore and his father Pete who wasn't even supposed to be standing on the rostrum.He was the first born of my grandfatherZaid Manoa and my grand mother Marie Manoa. I hadn't met her, was told that she passed on even before my dad became the Alpha. As if that was not enough, shortly after my grand mum's death, uncle's mate of one year went missing shortly after giving birth to my cousin Theo.Following the loss of his mate, granddad went stark raving mad for a few day after which he died. It was common formates to run mad after the loss of their other mate and would shortly die after that.Now Pete had to deal with the loss of both his parents and the sudden disappearance of his mated wife. He couldn't take it and he eventually went rogue and would remain unseen for years
