He tisked her and surprised her by reaching the bottom of his black v-neck and pulling it over his large frame. Her eyes widened at the animalistic side of her mate. Her wolf was howling as if it were a full moon. He was lean and muscular in all the right places, his shoulder broad, a solid chest, smooth-looking skin that she itched to touch with her fingertips, his stomach tone, and he was firm. His pants were held up because of a black belt, she tried her eyes back up to his to find him smirking at her. He was igniting a spark within her and it was on becoming brighter. She was breathing quickly, it was hard to swallow. She has never been in a situation like this before, no guy has ever thrown her on his bed and then taken his shirt off, and the fact that he was beyond hot helped. This shit was better than imagination. “Let me go,” She pleaded but she didn't think he would lunge at her with an enraged look on his face. she screamed and rolled over quickly, barely missing the out

Her breath hitched, and his fingertips lingered on her cheek where the tears were streaming as she looked up at him with panic and fear before they traveled up to her temples. His fingers began to feel warmer and then hot in a flash, she could feel her pulse at his fingertips. She was super aware of his touch and then she felt the push of a force against her mental block. Without force, it pushed forward like a ghost through a wall, without destruction. she was prepared to push back, to have to fight for her block to stay up but he just slipped through. She wasn't prepared for this. she couldn't feel his fingers anymore but she knew they were there. she didn't know what he was doing but she could feel him in her mind. She felt the walls of her mind being slipped through, felt him go through her thoughts, secrets, and her memories. A total invasion of privacy. Each of her memories and thoughts he touched or passed through clung to him, floated to him on their own. her energy was l

It has been two days since Zander attacked Rose, and she had easily gone back to the person she was before. Leslie and Ava came to her and kept her company but she couldn’t take her mind off the attack. She didn’t understand why Zander forced his mark on her as she said she didn't want to be with him. She didn’t know her words would make him that mad. After that incident, Rose completely ignored Zander. She would just sit there, staring at her hands and never making eye contact. She didn’t speak unless she was spoken to and it infuriated Zander. He didn’t want her to be like this, she’s his mate and she’s the person who shouldn’t be so scared of him. He could feel the numbness and fear she constantly had because of the mate bond and it made him sick to the stomach. Zander was trying his best to not hurt her but his nature wasn’t allowing that. He’s the most feared Alpha king but he didn’t want his mate to be so afraid of him. As he was making his way to her room, he heard Ava

"Zander," she whispered.    "What do you think you're doing ?" she gulped air in fear.    Even though he wasn't here in her presence he still found a way to intimidate her. She tucked her hair behind her ear.    "I-I uh, Well I was-" Both interrupted her in unison, their voices sounding angry.    "Not thinking. That's what you were doing. Did you honestly think I'd only give you four guards and hope for you to not do something stupid? I have you watched. Careful mate,"    He had me watched?    She looked around her but couldn't find anyone that looked

Chapter 19Unlike most alphas, Zander didn't seem to have to use any voice command like the others, it seemed like whatever he said was taken as a command. It might have been because he was beyond an alpha's rank and questioning him was crazy, but it was impressive to see how loyal his members were."Zander, can we talk." She was surprised when his head snapped over to her, blue eyes seeming to darken. "About what?" He asked, his voice deep and huskier than usual. "Uh... well...uh..." she mumbled not sure why his tone affected her in such a way that left her stupid. she cleared her throat and took a breath. "About all of this, I'm confused with what you said to them," she said in a breath, she got her main concern out. she wasn't sure where this would lead them, but she wanted to know what he thought. His brows dropped down as if he was thinking hard before he reached out and once again clasped his hand on her arm and pulled her to him. Both arms wrapped around her, making her pla
