《Alpha (under construction - rewrite)》Chapter Eight
Advertisement
The phone fell from my hands and I jumped off the sofa startled. My eyes were wide as I stared up at Ajax who was standing in the doorway.
His hair was wet and his eyes narrowed. He was angry.
"Why didn't you lock your door?" He growled, his fists were clenched tight, his normally tan hands were white.
I mentally face palmed, locking my door was not something I was used to. I had been told that this town was incredibly safe so I had never made it a priority. Perhaps now that Ajax was in my life I would have to make that priority.
He growled once again snapping me out of my thoughts and bringing my focus to him.
I walked closer to him, which seemed to surprise him. We were face to face and I stared up into his mysteriously dark eyes which always seemed to light up when he was looking at me. I cradled his face with my hands and bought his lips to mine.
A soft gentle touch.
"I though I was supposed to come to you." I whispered against his lips. I felt him freeze and I looked up into his dark eyes with question.
"I couldn't stay away" his words did something, I felt the hairs on my arms rise as I got goosebumps.
"I don't understand" he trailed my face with his fingers and looked out of the window.
"Are we alone?" I shook my head as a no and he nodded in response. He picked up my arms and made his way to my room. How he had known it was my room was beyond me but I followed anyway.
He shut the door behind me and he leaned against it. Feeling slightly intimidated I took a step backwards.

"I'm not human...." I nodded for him to continue but he struggled to say the next words so I spoke instead.
"You are something else?" I asked hesitantly, to which he sighed in response.
"I'm a wolf." I looked at him, really looked. Fair enough he had strong features and rather sharp teeth. But how could he be an animal. It was impossible, wasn't it ?"
I know that the possibility of him not being human had popped into my mind but I hadn't expected it to be a real possibly.
I looked back into his eyes and what I saw made me stumble into a cupboard. His eyes were glowing.
A deep gold gaze followed me as I skittered around unsure of what to do.
I was scared.
I felt guilty about it, I shouldn't have been scared and when I saw the wounded look enter his eyes I felt my chest lurch.
I took a step towards him in an effort to comfort him but before I could reach him, he was already out of my room.
I tried to run after him but the door slammed before I could get to him. I sunk into the sofa unsure of what had just occurred.
"Well that went well" I heard Lovella's voice from my left and I chucked a pillow in that direction.
After hearing a humph from that direction it smiled in satisfaction.
" He isn't human," I whispered more to myself then to Lovella, but my cousin being my cousin decided to interfere anyway.
"What is he then?" Lovella had come to sit next to me and instead of being sarcastic she was being compassionate.
"I don't know and ......I don't care." It hadn't been long and I know we had only gone on one date and I had only known him for less than a month, but I beloved in love at first sight, and I was pretty sure that was what I was experiencing.

I wasn't going to give that up because I was scared.
I stood up briskly and went to my hallway and pulled on my coat. Lovella stood up but didn't say anything, I hoped she understood because I didn't have time to explain.
I opened the door and looked into the place my car normally was and face palmed when I remembered that my car was I town.
I went near mr garage and pulled out an old bicycle. I threw my hood up and got pedalling. Clearly he meant a lot to me because I didn't enjoy cycling.
It took me twenty minutes to make it into town. I was drenched and exhausted and all I wanted to do was snuggle up into Ajax's strong arms.
The garage was empty, as I set my bike against one of the walls, I noticed no lights were turned on.
I was freezing and I felt my bones shake. I began to shiver violently and tears of frustration began to fall out of my eyes.
I almost jumped out of my skin when I was pulled into a warm body but immediately calmed when I felt Ajax's deep voice was over me.
"It's okay Baby, I'm here now"
I balled into his chest, clutching onto his jacket. I probably whimpered out a hundred sorries and all he did was hold me and whisper comforting words into my ear.
I wasn't sure how long we had stood in the rain together, but despite bing cold and upset I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
Ajax picked me up bridal style and lifted me up carrying me over to his car.
He gently placed me into his car and before he could move I grabbed his collar.
"I accept you no matter what you are."
My words were hoarse and I couldn't be sure they had been heard but his response reassured me.
"You are mine now, and if anyone messes with you they pay the ultimate price."
