Chapter 103: Chapter 103
Maive's POV
I found myself at the parking lot with him, I didn't even realise that we reached the parking lot as I was full of thoughts.
He was just playing with my feelings and yet here I am, silently crying for I know that everything is just a game.
I aggressively wiped the tears from my eyes before he saw it. I do not want him to pity me for crying over silly things, for him, this is silly but for me, it affects me wholly. Everything he does affects me to the point that it is already breaking me emotionally.
"Maive..." He called, I cannot comprehend what was in his voice... but it was as if he was hurting... but why?
I could see that he is keeping a distance from me, probably refraining himself from smelling my scent. Good thing he was doing that because I knew that if he is near me or even just touches me, I would have probably fucking crying like a baby. That's the least thing that I wanted to happen. Among anything else, I don't want to accept pity from him.
"I want to go home," I stated as I looked the other way, trying not to look into his hypnotising eyes.
He took a step closer to me and held my chin with his thumb and index finger, trying to make me face him. The heat becomes more excuciating because of that touch, the mark on my neck felt like it was being the source of the heat. Because of that, I ended up pushing him away.
I was actually surprised that I was able to push him. It looked like his body has weakened that makes me able to do so. He was not putting any guard that allowed me to pushed him.
When our eyes met for a few seconds, just like his body, he looked soft trying to read the emotions in my eyes. Somehow, I don't know if I was just hallucinating but it seemed like he looked afraid and vulnerable.
He was just toying with me, so how could he have those feelings when in fact, he's ruthless yet I'm still loving him despite the truth. He is so good-looking and perfectly structured, damn, I'm so fucking mesmerized by his beauty instead of thinking about my situation.
"Fuck!" I hissed when the heat became even more painful, damn it, I crossed my arms and caressed both of it slowly, trying to relieve the burning pain. Oh shit, it feels like I am going to pass out any moment.
"Damn it." I heard him cursing. "Alright. We're fucking going home." He sounded frustrated and mad.
Is he mad at me? Is he frustrated because of me? I did not ask for his help, nor ask him to come to me.
Why is he here with me by the way? And now he is mad about the situation, was it his choice or is it because this is just a part of his game? Oh gosh, I have so much in mind but the pain is getting unbearable that any moment I might not be able to handle it. This is damn killing me.
I couldn't care much because it seemed like I am going to lose conciousness in just some minutes.
He opened his car and led me inside. As his arms started to touch my skin, the pain of burning is feeling something different, the burning is feeling a bit of pleasure. This must be a hallucination, I could feel that something inside me wanted to come out. I started to get dizzy which made me not complain about whatever he was planning to do. I probably passed out after that.
When I opened my eyes, I wanted to fall asleep once again because I felt the pain of burning again and it seemed like I was being cooked on this cold night.
However, my eyes widened when I found myself in a familiar bedroom. It was only seconds when I realized that it was Daxton's room. I immediately stood up and ran towards the door to be out of the place despite the pain I am feeling right now. But, as soon as I rotated the knob and tried to open it, I wasn't able to do so.
It was fucking locked from the outside!
Damn it!
With all my strength, I tried to open the door once again but it was not enough to do so as if there were a magic seal in his door that no one could destroy. Oh fuck, is this one of his games? He locked me up just because I found out his true intentions? How cruel is he to fucking do this to me?
I knocked on the door loudly from the inside as I screamed, "Let me fucking go!"
I thought that despite his coldness and ruthlessness, he is kind hearted because he saved me from the vampires and witches, he even sent me flowers. But now, I changed my mind. Daxton Astrid is much more evil than I expected.
Suddenly, I fell to my knees when the burning feeling started getting worse. So much worse than before, I looked around and luckily I found a big pitcher of water. I immediately run to fill the glass beside it and drink it on one go. However, it was not even enough that I drank the water from the pitcher. It relieves the pain a little, still it damn hurts, when will this stop?
After a moment, I lost hope that I went closer to the door again. I knocked a few times with a weak face.
"P-Please let me go..." This time, I sounded like I was begging. The pain within me made me sound so weak.
"I'll be good, promise. Please help me," I begged.
"Oh fuck! It hurts so much..." I said as I kneeled on the ground, leaning on the door.
Third Person's POV
Maive was locked up in the bedroom of Alpha King. She was crying from the excruciating pain brought by the wolf heat. She begged and begged to take that feeling away from her. She whimpered to be out of the room.
The alpha king on the other had was completely aware of it. He was outside the door, hearing every cries and whimpers of his mate. Just how much Maive is feeling, he is also feeling the same way. His eyes were crimson red rather than his calmed deep black eyes... he is so tempted to mate her.
I want her fucking much. That's what he is thinking while listening to her cries. His lust was all over his body, it was very evident. None of his men and servants could go near him as they are completely aware that their lord is more than frustrated.
"D-Daxton, help me," It was Maive.
He clenched his jaw as he move forward the door, he was so tempted. He held the lock, almost opening it. He gripped into it so hardly as if he was using it as an outlet to release the frustration of wanting to touch her. However, despite that, he was trying to control himself from not doing so.
Fuck it, Maive. I don't want to hurt you.
His fist clenched as he let go of the lock. He really wanted her to be free from that pain, yet he knows that if he did that, she would be a lot more vulnerable for attack. He couldn't mate with her, not when there is a traitor roaming around and there are still some killing incidents in the Polaris. He couldn't expose her to that danger, that's what stopped him from mating with her mate.
He already made the set-up of exposing someone in danger, in order to hide Maive, his mate. He knows that there are so many beings waiting for his mate to come out because that is an Alpha's weakness.
Little did Daxton know, his father was watching him as he controlled himself from mating her. Clark was admiring his son's toughness for being able to withstand such temptation. He knows damn well how difficult to refrain oneself to mate when the alluring scent is lingering into your senses. For that control that his son shows, he knew how much his son loves his mate.
"Father," Clark's gaze shifted to the woman who just appear in front of him. It was Yskela Ruthfield. She looks extremely angry.
He went inside his office and invited Yskela to take a seat. However, she refused it. She slapped the table, releasing her anger.
"Your son is fucking cheating on me!" She exclaimed out of rage.
Clark chuckled, the image of his son controlling himself to avoid lust and temptation entered his thoughts. That fucking idiot. He thought.
"Are you two together?" Clark asked. He was the one who pushed his son to this woman in front of him. It was his idea to join the Astrid and Ruthfiled family through their marriage. Daxton never pursued her, he never even showed interest in her.
That made her even angry because the question felt like an insult to her because she knew damn well that they are not in a relationship. Everything between them is just a facade, and she is aware of it.
...Just a facade but for her, it was real.
