"I guess hiding in your room is on your agenda huh?"

"Why not? I have done it before."

"So what are you going to eat?" Angela sat beside me.

I realized my stash had ceased to exist and now I was down to a bag of chips and a hot bottle of juice. The stash would not keep me sane for more than a half a day. I had no choice but to exit my room.

"I don't think he's mad Amira." Angela nudged me.

"And you know this how?" I popped open the bag of chips.

"If he was, I'm pretty sure we would all know.

My face scrunched up in distaste. I could not believe it. The last thing I wanted to do was leave this room and have to confront Xavier face to face.

"Okay, well if you feel so awful about it, how about you apologize to him."

"Apologize? Hell no. Why would I even go near him? Thanks Angela but I rather keep my head on my shoulders."

She laughed. I pouted. I didn't find it funny. He would punish me for speaking to him the way I did. I guess staying away from him was my only option....

Like a mouse in the home of a cat, I scurried around the house when all was quiet. After attending training sessions, I would disappear from the crowd and up to my room before anyone would notice that I was missing. At night, I would rush down to the kitchen and dig through the refrigerator and cabinets for food, taking it back to my room before anyone would notice.

It was actually getting ridiculous. I felt like a rodent in the house. I sat in my room, listening to everyone disperse to their room for the night. This was my cue. I slipped on my slippers, slipped out of my room and took to the kitchen.

I inhaled. The kitchen smelt of leftovers from today's meal. My inner animal purred with delight. I rushed over to the cabinets. Cookies. Cakes. Bottle water. Juices. I stuffed a few snacks into my pockets and opted to carry the water with my hands. I popped open a packaged cake to taste.

"Is that dinner?" I nearly leaped from my skin.

"Shit, it's just you."

"What the hell are you doing?" Allen took notice of the pocket full of food and the cake stuffed in my cheeks.

"Well I just came down for something to snack on."

"Snack or your dinner for the night?" He raised an eyebrow at me.

"Both." I voiced in a whisper.

"Look, I don't know what's going on however I suggest you fix it. You have been eating junk like it's a full course meal." He walked over to the refrigerator, pulling a beer from one of the shelves before he popped the top with ease.

I exhaled a heavy sigh. I looked down at the junk that was in my hands. He was right. I was skipping out on hot meals because I was afraid to confront my demons. Well Xavier to be exact.

"You're right." I shoved the snacks back into the cabinet before I dismissed myself from the kitchen.

My legs were like jelly, wobbling and unbalanced as I made my way down the halls toward Xavier's room. My mouth felt parched and the knot in my stomach was not helping me either. I stood just inches from the door, staring at the thick wood as I thought of a million reasons to go back to my normal routine.

Then I thought of a million reasons as to why I needed to do this. I needed to confront him. I could not hide any longer. With jittery hands and weak limbs, I knocked on the door gently, almost hoping he would not answer.

I waited, shifting from one foot to the other.

Please don't be here.

I nearly begged the goddess. However my inner wolf had other hopes.

I turned to leave. No one was here and I was sort of glad of that.

That was until the room door swung open and Xavier stepped forward. Half naked and slightly displeased with my sudden appearance this time of night, he glared down at me. Where are his clothes? I was nearly tugging at the hemming of shirt at such a sight. If I wasn't already nervous, he just helped push me to the brink of no return.

"What?"

"May I-um speak to you?" I kept my eyes directly on his, even despite my urge to look elsewhere.

A growl rumbled from the back of his throat before he motioned for me to enter. I stepped in. Instantly I was swept away by the sweetish scent of him. Arousing and also weakening, I exhaled a long breath before I sucked in the next one.

I had to calm the beast within.

He closed the door just as I turned to face him. Just as I feared, not a word left my trembling lips. He eyed me as he made his way over to the window, taking notice of the half-moon that smiled down at him.

"Um well, Alpha I just wanted to say that I'm very sorry about what happened at the party. It was wrong of me to say those things and for me to approach you the way I did. Again, I apologize." It came out quickly.

We engaged in a stare down, one I did not expect after an apology. I expected him to tell me something, I expected him to tell me how he accepted my apology so I can go on about my life. Instead, he leaned against the window, a crafty grin pulled across his face.

"You finally cracked?"

"Excuse me?" I asked confusedly. I was expecting something like 'I accept your apology' or 'thank you for your apology' but then again, look at who I was speaking to.

"Well, I wanted to see how long you were going to hide in your room cowering away in fright. It was quite amusing I have to admit. You cracked sooner then I predicted." He chuckled.

"I was not cowering." I immediately began to regret apologizing.

"Yeah, okay." He stepped away from the window and took a seat on to his bed. "If that is all, you may leave."

I can leave? How dare this moron dismiss me? I shot him a venomous glare as I opted to leave. However, I just could not push myself to actually go. I had few more words for him.

"Nope, that is not all Mr. Xavier." His jaw tightened when his name left my lips. It was evident that I not addressing correctly got under his skin quite nicely. "You are a very sad puppy. You have no heart, no emotions. Do you know what a laugh is? Have you ever done it? Happiness? Have your dumbass ever experienced it?"

He stood from the bed, darkness carpeted his eyes. It was clear that he was irritated however I was on a roll and could not stop just yet.

"You are selfish too. Do you believe that your title as Alpha made you into something of a monster?"

The more I spoke; it was becoming clear that my head would be snatched from my shoulders any second now. Anger? That was an understatement to describe him right now. I was surprised steam was not whistling from his ears yet. I was in deep shit. Too deep to take it back. Deep enough to continue to drown since I was already swimming up a dangerous stream.

"What do you want? What do you want from this pack? What do you want from us? What do you want for yourself? Power? Control? What do you want?" My voice was blaring now as I spoke to him.

The entire scene went quiet. Am I dead? I did not speak and neither did he for the moment.

"What do I want?" His tone of voice deepened as his inner wolf screamed to be released to show its dominance. He stood over me. The warmth of his pant left tingles across my face and neck. His aroma? Fulfilling almost but the fear was still there.

His lips thinned. His bewitching eyes screamed for my attention. Surely, they received it.

"What do you want?" I repeated, hoping I would receive a reasonable explanation for his outraging behavior.

I lifted my head as I stood up tall, sticking my ground to show courage I really did not have. Deep down, I was afraid of the outcome of my outburst. He was going to fucking kill me. His eyes vast, his lips slightly apart, he stared at me as if I had lost my mind. It was true though. I damn sure lost my mind.

Soon, his strict look vanished. He smiled. A dim grin that I found a little strange, especially after what I had just said to him.

"You wouldn't believe me." He took a seat on to his bed again.

"Try me." I pushed for him to share.

"Fine." His smile grew wider. "I want you."

"Excuse me?" I did not hear him quite well. I was certain that he did not say what I though he said. I was sure he did not say such a thing however my racing heart and jittery fingers assured me that I was not losing my mind.

He wants what? Who?

He stood up. His arm extended to reach for me. Reluctant to allow him to touch me, I pulled away just in time.

Not taking my dismayed gesture into consideration, he slithered his arms around my waist, tugging until I collided into his bare upper frame with oomph.

"What did you say?" I could admit my slow blink lasted longer than it should have. Re-opening my eyes, I was met with a returning stare.

"You asked me what I wanted and I told you." He spoke as if what he just said was nothing. As if what he had just said did not need to be addressed.

"No." I shook my head in denial.

"No what?" He seemed almost amused by my reaction.

That is it. He is playing with me. He is fucking with my mind in hopes to embarrass me. In hopes to break me.

"No you don't." I hauled myself from his hold. He grabbed me tighter, nearly squeezing at my hips.

"Why don't you believe me?" His sun kissed smile vanished from his face.

"Because you have been nothing but a damn pest to me since I came here. So yeah, believing you is quite hard." Again, I struggled to ease out of his hold. Again, he held on with strength.

"It's not hard to believe." His fingers caressed my check, pushing my flowing hair behind my ear. "Can I show you how much I want you?"

Before I could answer his question. Before I could deny his request, he leaned down, gliding his lips across my cheek to my ear, using his lips and teeth to attack my earlobe. My breathing became heavy. My heart began pumping against my chest at an insane pace, my body weakening from each touch. He gripped my wrist, pinning them above my head and against the wall as I freed a heavy sigh. His warmed breath blew onto my neck, sending my body into complete shock.

He began to touch me. He caressed parts of my body, showing attention to parts he never cared for before. His hands latched onto the back of thigh. Lifting me from my feet, I wrapped my legs around his waist.

He whisked me over to his bed, sitting me down onto the sheeting as he positioned his body between my thighs. He glanced down at me. A look I never saw before. My stomach began to churn from all of the excitement.

He leaned down, clasping my bottom lip between his canines before he kissed them. Such a syrupy taste. One I never experienced before. I pushed forward, drowning in the kiss I sought to deepen. Denying my request, our lips parted, leaving me reaching for him once again.

As his hands roamed across the surface of my body, his lips caressed the surface of my neck and warm cheek. My arms around his neck, I tugged him closer than ever before. Stupidly, I wanted more.

His hands, like warm desires, began to explore the canvas of my body. My stomach tightened, my thighs began to tremble, my heart began to thump as his hands gripped and squeeze my breast through the fabric of my shirt.

Determined to eliminate the barrier between my flesh and his, he removed my shirt without a moment to spare, revealing my full breast that screamed for the attention. He looked at them. Darkness blanketed his orbs just as my nipples hardened.

A lustful growl slipped from my throat just as he engulfed one into his mouth. Electricity ignited and so did my need to have him tonight. What am I doing? I began to disagree with my body's need for him. This is bad. My body arched up to him, accepting the pleasure of his tongue and lips that toyed with my pearls.

"Alpha." It left my lips in a tremble. Why does he have such power over me?

My body bowed down to him. My eyes sealed, and my fingers entangled his thick locks, I hated to admit that what he was doing to me was driving me insane.

My skin slightly nipped by his canines, it was a pleasurable distraction from the fingers that latched on my waistband. With a pull, the soft material slid down my thigh until they were pulled from around my ankles.

I stared blankly at him. In return, he stared at the naked structure that rested under him. I was a nervous wreck. It was obvious that I was uncomfortable when I slipped my hands over my clit to shield myself.

He snatched my hand away, pinning them just above my head.

"Don't hide from me." The monster in him disagreed with my choice to hide myself.

He kissed me again. This one deeper and much more aggressive. It was a kiss I did not realized I needed so badly. He kissed my chin. My body shivered. He kissed the curve of my neck. I expelled a heavy exhalation. His tongue flicked my nipple. A jolt of pleasure soared through me. He kissed my belly. My nerves were all over the place.

He pushed my legs to open until they were spread and everything was revealed to his wandering eyes. Soft, plush, and wet flesh screamed for his immediate attention. However, he had other plans. Before he would tend to my needs, before he would show my pussy the care it desired, he decided to tease me instead. He kissed my inner thigh, his hitched breath blowing against my wetness every time he breathed. He would kiss, and kiss, and kiss, his lips just centimeters away from my sensitive skin.

"Don't do this to me." I whimpered, begging him not to continue the unjust charade. My body, my core was throbbing now and the last thing I wanted was for him to tease me.

Finally, his tongue flicked across my swollen nub, sending a jolt of positive stimulus through my body. Reacting, I jumped, releasing an earsplitting moan throughout the room. He licked again until he sucked me up between his slightly parted lips, entangling me in a web of unforeseen pleasure I could not seem to escape.

This man's mouth was surely a blessing.

My folds, covered in my own juices and his, began to tingle between each suck and slurp. My goodness. He pinched and teased my nipples as his lips continued to create an indescribable feeling. I pushed my hips upward. He pushed me back down. Again, I pushed forward, seeking the need to feel the orgasm that I could not hold onto.

"You will not cum until I allow you too." The command in his voice was weakening. I looked into his eyes, watching as he kissed and licked me up, his eyes trained on my mine. He was threatening me with his eyes, warning me that my orgasm was not allowed without his approval.

"Alpha, please." I began to grind against his lips. "I want it."

He seemed to smile. Blushing embarrassingly, I turned my gaze to something else. He kissed me one last time, before he pulled his head from my trembling thighs and rose to meet me once again. Warm, blanketed with a coat of my juices, he pressed his soft lips against mine.

"This is how sweet you taste." He licked at my bottom lip.

I closed my eyes as he shared with me the juices that flowed from my own body and onto his lips. I could not help but picture his head between my thighs once again. Using my feet, I kicked at his boxers until they slipped from his hips. Sliding passed his legs and ankles; they crumbled to the foot of the bedding and onto the floor.

Using his hand for guidance, he positioned himself at my entrance before he slipped into my opening. My body arched as my lips parted to release a satisfying moan. Ripping through my tight core to gain entrance into my canvas, his manhood did not cease until it was fully inside of me.

Upon full entrance, he seemed to settle until he pulled himself from me. I closed my eyes, my lengthened teeth planted into the flesh of my bottom lip just when he slipped deep inside of me again. Out. I could hear his juice cover dick slip from my opening. In. My walls throbbed against his swollen member.

I gripped him tighter, my nails implanted into the muscle of his shoulders as his pace increased.

"Amira?" His lips brushed against my earlobe.

"Hmmm." My response was intertwined with a broken moan.

"You belong to me." His fingers latched onto a handful of my hair before he pulled my head back. "Do you understand me?"

"Yes." I was so deep into the heat of the moment.

I whimpered under his words. If he continued to fuck me the way he did, it was for certain that I would agree to all of his terms. He went deeper. His pace increased. Unable to control myself, I groaned out aloud just before his land slipped over my mouth, muffling the moans that inverted to screams.

I was so close. He continued to pound into me, driving his manhood into my screaming core. Harder. Deeper. He continued to fuck me as my orgasm reached the brim.

"Xavier!" My back arched, my nails punctured his skin as I screeched his name through his hand.

Oh shit.

Sparks erupted through me as a jolt of energy seemed to spread throughout my body. My breath hitched and my heart slammed against my chest as my body began to decelerate from an unimaginable high.

Small, gentle kisses were planted on my lips as I pressed to return my breaths to normal. So did he. Almost as if he was exhausted, he rolled off of me and onto his back, his manhood still covered in my juices at it began to soften.

Damn, what the hell did I just do?

I sat up. Instead of allowing me to move, he pulled me down and into his moist body, unwilling to let me go no matter how many times I tried...
