Chapter 8: Chapter 8

Alexander

The ride to the shopping mall was very quiet, only the sound of the sweet cool romantic songs I had on the car stereo filled our ears.

Inside the car was very cold as I had the air conditioning on. I turned to look at her from time to time, I could feel her insecurities, her trembling fingers, and her deafening silence.

From one glance you could tell she was not comfortable as she sat down like someone afraid to move or touch anything for the fear of being scolded.

I wish I could assure her that she has absolutely nothing to be scared about, that I would protect her come what may. I don't know, but I do have this huge feeling that we both can fool everybody into believing that we are mates.

Only if she knows how much her very presence affects me, Her after rainfall smell combined with sunflower scent drives me nuts.

She has the most aphrodisiac scent I have ever perceived in my life, and it's so fucking hard concentrating on driving when all I want is to devour her innocence.

I have been thinking of the possibility of sharing a room with her and not making attempts to fuck her.

She has completely taken over my mind, I feel like I am going nuts just thinking about how I could make her scream my name from those tiny little soft lips.

I wish I could just push her thoughts aside and concentrate on what is to come.

But fuck it, I can't think of anything else, she is like a strong sweet wine that intoxicates me.

If possible the only thing soothing to me is pulling this fucking car over and having her tiny little pretty lips suck and gag on my hard cock.

Sweet jeez!

It is a good thing, she is not looking past my face because the zipper of my jeans is fucking bruising my already hardened cock at this very moment.

I wish, she did not have to be this innocent, It would have been much easier.

But at the same time, I have to try to keep my emotions in check, she is not my mate, and I don't want to ruin her for her mate.

Fuck!

Not that I care, fuck the bastard, whoever he may be.

Even Thinking that she might have a mate somewhere drives me insane. This pretending to be a mate thing is going to be much harder than I anticipated.

I Would have to fuck some bitch tonight, to let go of some of my sexual frustration towards her.

I struggled to take my mind off her as the thought of Jessica crept into my mind.

I had gone to her apartment after I was all dressed to check up on her but found that she was not in. That seems odd because the jessica I know has little or no friends here at the pack, perhaps she might have gone out for a run to calm herself down after what I told her.

I hope she doesn't give Ashley any problem that would need me to choose between the both of them.

I wish I could just tell her, that whatever is going on between Ashley and me was strictly a deal. But there is this part of me that wants to keep it a secret from her.

I intend going to check up on her in the evening after I get back to the pack.

After about thirty minutes of drive, I pulled into the parking lot of the shopping center.

The shopping mall is one of the biggest we have around here, as it provides you with everything you can ever ask for.

“Can you at least wear a fake smile?” I said to her in an attempt to break the coldness between the two of us.

She turned to look at me and I was instantly mesmerized by her sea-blue eyes, which hold so many comforts.

Her stares only lasted for a few seconds before she took her eyes away but the effect made me want to stare at her all day.

All I want to do is wrap her up in my hands and get a drink in her beautiful scent.

“Make sure you pick everything you would need for the time being, from your cosmetics to make-up and undies I will be in charge of your clothes and the things you will be needing for your initiation ceremony,” I said to her before opening the door and stepping out.

I had previously called the shop manager to inform her that I would be coming with someone to shop.

After about two hours of shopping nonstop, we were headed back to the car with lots of shopping bags.

I noticed that back at the mall while we were shopping, Ashley wasn't super excited like many girls would, she was rather very calm and I don't know why but I felt disturbed.

I could have easily come out here on my own to get her all that I felt she needed, but I wanted her to be happy and be able to pick some things for herself.

As soon as we entered the car, I turned to look at her, she still had this gloomy look,

“What is it?” I asked as I tried my best not to sound so bossy.

“Nothing,” she mumbled under her breath, as she kept staring at her uninteresting nails.

I would have to get someone to come to the house and have those nails properly treated and polished.

“Ashley, I know I am demanding so much from you, please I do not want you to see me as a monster, I need your help and only you can help me make this work,” I said in a subtle voice, hoping my voice can help her relax more.

She nods her head shyly as her cheeks turned red,

Common smile a little for me, please I said pouting and using puppy eyes to lure her.

She smiles and damn her face was a perfect work of art, her double cheek dimples were the cutest I have ever seen.

“You are beautiful,” I said subconsciously, and that made her cheeks burn even more.

You should smile more often, I said to her as I turned on the car and drove back to the pack

Jessica

I opened my eyes to see that I was wrapped up in Derrick's blanket with his hand around me.

From the light coming from the window, I can tell that the day is far spent.

How could I have been so clumsy to allow myself to sleep off in that manner, I wondered as I slowly got off the bed so as not to wake derrick up.

I tiptoed to where my pant and bra were lying on the floor and picked them up, my pussy was seriously sore from all the pounding it just received from Derrick.

I feel so bruised, I can't believe I just gave my virginity to Derrick. Before now I hated his ass so much for all the bad things he did to Alexander while we were growing up.

Derrick has never for once liked Alexander, because he felt betrayed by Alexander's mother who was supposed to be his mate, and his elder brother who happened to be the king at that time.

After the king suddenly died, he tried on so many occasions to get rid of Alexander. He has even convinced me before now that I should kill Alexander and that he would make me his Luna.

I was not supposed to save Alex in our last battle, I was there to end his life, that was how derrick had wanted it. But when I got there, I couldn't do it, and the reason was that I thought that Alex could finally get to see how much I love him.

But that never happened instead he is declaring a slave girl, a nobody as his mate.

“Where are you going to,” I heard Derrick who just woke up saying.

I tried not to feel embarrassed with him seeing me naked, I have always had that tough badass attitude and I wasn't not going to soften just because I stupidly gave my virginity away to an old man, old enough to be my father.

His eyes still had that unsatisfied look, as his eyes kept poking my cleavage and ass.

“I need to go back home and freshen up,” I said with a carefree attitude while strapping my bra on.

“What's the rush, you can consider this place your own now, and if we are going to work together to bring down your former best friend down, we need to be together always,” Derrick said tauntingly.

His words hurt me a bit, yes he is right, that Alexander was my best friend and the only genuine friend I have ever had since I lost my parents.

But I have made big dreams for myself, just the way he is desperate to become the alpha, I too have long made up my mind to become the Luna of this pack.

It would have been so much better if he had easily picked me as his mate, instead of that ordinary slave girl.

Nevertheless, I will do anything to make sure that his slave girl never comes out of the initiation process alive, it's a good thing that I am in charge of the initiation process.

And if somehow she manages to survive, I am going to make sure that she never becomes the luna, and that she is banished shamefully from this pack.
