"Raphael brought you back..." He answered rather flatly as he looked at the few papers that Raphael had handed him.
"Why would he do that? Was it because you told him to?"
I look to the window as he answers, "No, I didn't tell him to do anything..."
"It was quite obvious that he was only training and being nice to me because you told him to, so why would he come, find me without you telling him to do so?..."
"I don't know, maybe you should ask him..."
"Why? So he can pretend to be my friend again?..." I snap, then sigh "You know what? Never mind!"
I then turn away from him and look out the window. He sighs. He put the papers down, turns in his seat so that he is facing me, and then reaches over, placing his hand on my cheek, applying a little pressure, making me look at him as he says,
"We all went looking for you once Zaire returned to the training field and said that y
Everything and everyone had fallen silent and stopped as soon as I had yelled and slapped Zachariah's face. I look up and see that Zachariah had released the King's wrist and was standing with his arms crossed over his chest and a small smile on his lips. The King looks at me, then at Zachariah. He says something I don't hear. Zachariah turns and smiles at him and utters something in return. They shake hands and then they make their way over to me. I put my hands on my hips as Zachariah stops in front of me and holds out his hand; I take a quick look around and notice that more of those big beasts have entered the room and there is no way I can defeat all of them on my own, so I slowly put my now shaking hand into his. He pulls me slightly towards him, bringing me into his arms. I don't like it, but my body does what it and I have always done and melt just that little bit into him. I then turn my face in his chest, not wanting to show the vulnerability as the tears f
At his words and as he continues to slowly circle me, I stand from my crouch, still mimicking his movements. I am expecting him to move, but what he does surprises me; he doesn't go to hit me, which is what I was expecting. He grabs the back of my neck and pulls me into him, wrapping his other arm tightly around me as he kisses me again. I move my hands to his chest and push against him just a little. He pulls back from the kiss, placing his forehead to mine as he says, "I thought I had lost you! I love you! Yasmine" It isn't until that moment that I realize that I no longer care for him in that way. Even after everything and the renewed hate, I just felt for him, Zachariah is still slowly inching his way into my heart. I move one of my hands from his chest to his cheek and as he leans more into it, I can't stop the tear that escapes my eye as I whisper. "You did!" For the love I once felt for him, I give him one last kiss. I then take advantage of my
I run and run, looking over my shoulder as the beast continues to chase me through the woods. I wake with a start just as he catches me, pinning me to a tree and then biting into my neck. I sit up quickly, my hand going to the junction between my neck and shoulder where the beast bit me in my nightmare and then a sharp pain shoots through my arm. I place my hand to where the pain started, and I am surprised when I feel a bandage wrapped around my arm.I move slowly, pull back the blankets, and swing my feet over the edge. I gasp a little at the coolness of the floor under my feet as I stand. When I first came back from Valentino, I didn't notice the cold after being cold for so long, but now the cold affects me even more. I look around and realize that I am not in Zachariah's room. I get to my feet and move around the room. It is a very beautiful room. I am in awe as I find the window that leads to the balcony.I hesitate as I check the door, remembering when Zachariah
He leaves his fingers under my chin, but I still flinch as he places his other hand on my cheek. He then slides it around to the back of my neck. I let out a shaky breath as tingles run down from my neck and he closes the distance between us, kissing my lips. He then moves his other hand, wrapping it around my waist and pulling my body up tight against his as he deepens the kiss. I don't fight this time and allow my body to melt into his. I hesitantly lift my arms and wrap them around his neck as he tightens his hold on me and adds more dominance to his kiss. A wave of fear goes through me as he slides his hand down and then back up again but under the shirt this time. Just because I am giving myself to him, it doesn't mean I'm not scared. I have never done anything other than what Zachariah has done to me. He moves me backward until my back hits the doorframe leading back into the bedroom. I tense a little as I feel him pressed up against me. I then slowly slide my
He smiles, walks back over to where I am standing, and wraps his arms around me, pulling me in tight to him as he kisses me with uncontrolled dominance and passion. We don't seem to move, but the back of my legs hit the edge of the bed and I feel myself falling backward, but instead of hitting the bed; he guides me slowly onto the surface. Without breaking the dominant kiss, he moves us both further up onto the bed.When the knock on the door comes again, Zachariah finally breaks his kiss as he growls low. I move my hand to his cheek and whisper, "You have to go... And when you come back, we can finish this!! Zachariah!" Zachariah keeps his eyes locked with mine. A little bit of fear mixed with excitement runs through me as his eyes flicker from grey to gold and back again. As they continue to flicker, the knock on the door comes again, only a little harder this time, accompanied by the same voice. "Alpha Zachariah, Alpha Malik is waiting!!" I
I must have dozed off as when I opened my eyes, I was in the bed on my own. I smile as I stretch. The slight ache that goes through my body reminds me of what I had just done, what I had just allowed Zachariah to do. Now that he has had the pleasure of my body, I wonder how long he will want to use me before he decides to share me and then moves me on to another. I sigh and then move slowly off of the bed and find the shirt of Zachariah's I was wearing.I pull it on and then search the room until I find the bathroom. Once I know which door the bathroom is behind, I go back over to the bed and look around on the floor for the jeans I was wearing. When I find them, I pick them up and head back into the bathroom.I turn the water on, and while it warms, I remove the bandage from my arm. Once the water is warm, I step under the spray. I sigh as the heat seeps into my body. I wash my hair and then carefully wash my arm and between my legs, removing the blood from both.
He tightens his arms around me as I try to move. Instead of looking at Rania, he looks into my eyes as he replies,"You are right, Rania, I never wanted a mate, but the Moon Goddess had other plans for me..."I tense in his arms and he moves his hand and places it gently on my cheek, and continues"I wasn't expecting to find a fiery Yasmine, hiding in one of the many bunkers the elders in the village had built..." I gasp and whisper,"You knew about the bunkers?""Of course, I knew about the bunkers, I also kept an eye on you, as I do with all the females growing up in my villages! It was how I knew you were different from all the others. I was, however, surprised when I entered your village that night and I could smell the scent of my mate telling me that she was about to or had just reached her 18th year. I followed my mate's scent through the village and it lead me straight to you... My Lycan wanted you then and there, but then you attacked me..
I smile and look out at the woods, then back at him and then back at the woods as I ask, "Zachariah, can we go and do some training in the woods? After everything, I need some open space!" He growls and I return my eyes to his and then sigh, lowering my eyes again. I should have known everything would change once he fully owned my body. I move off of his lap and move to the railing and cross my arms over my chest as I lean on it, I snap, "So, Zachariah. How much is going to change now? Now that you have taken my virginity and broken me in... Are you going to share me as that beast wanted? Or are you going to lock me up in the bedroom and make me your personal sex slave? Maybe share me only with Raphael... Or are you just going to lock me inside the mansion, make me cook and clean? Make me learn my place and do as I am told?" He walks up behind me and wraps his arms around me, pulling me tight up against him as he growls. "Yasmine. Nothing is g
