Chapter 16


    16


    (Aurora’s pov? i needed to get out of here The thought emerges into my mind as I look at the blood still


    dancing in the puddles. . It sent a shiver through me. I can’t believe I let that beast touch me so


    Inappropriately and didn’t put up inuch of a fight. In fact, I loved it so much, my mind had been flooded


    with nasty images of him I promised next time, I wouldn’t y into his hands again. Whatever sick joke


    he was ying with me, I’d fight it. And fight that stupid burning urge to have hiin inside me.


    Oh who am I kidding? I can’t go against an Alphia. I’d be killed in a matter of seconds.


    I pecled away froin the window when the door opens again. I could already recl his eyes on me and my


    nipples bud as they turned sensitive against the colton crop top.. Lily was actually my size and the top fil


    me perfectly. The only problem was that I had no bra. “If you’re thinking about escaping out through the


    window, I’ll let you know that I have many wolves surrounding iny territory. It won’t be a walk in the pack


    for you, assuming if you can still walk after you jump out the window,” His voice made me shiver. But not


    in the disgust Iscle moments ago while watching the blood. I wanted him to touch me again. My skin


    buzzed as I felt him approach I don’t dare turn around, knowing i would havet o have his perinission to


    even look at him.


    Or inaybe that was an excuse I was telling myself knowing that those amber swirls would burn through


    me.


    “I wasn’t nning to,” I said softly. When had I be such a liar? And I wasn’t even good at


    it


    He humns, his heat emanating from him hits my back and I found my teeth sinking into my bottom lip.


    Was he going to touch me again? Why did I throb with need and excitement instead of feeling disgusted


    and repulsed? Why did I need him to touch me so badly that iny breathing was already bing


    shallow? What was wrong with me?


    I squirm when his big hand mps down on my shoulder and he turns me to face him. I avoid his gaze


    as they prated through me.


    “Lying will not help you,” He points out seriously. Retracting his hand, I’m shocked to feel them reach out


    for my burnt hand and tenderly hold i t. “The healing balm should work.”


    My eyes fall on the small jar in his hand that he seemed to have uncovered already.


    I stay muted and stunned when he starts rubbing the green greasy balm on my bums gently. His touch


    burns through me and tingles that nearly had me trembling racked through my body and settled in iny


    stomach,


    I don’t know whate over me, but I found my mouth movin: before I could zip it shut, “DO you treat


    your female prisoners the saine as you treat me?”


    Dammit Aurora what the hell was wrong with you? Keep your mouth shut Don’t ask questions you don’t


    even want the answer to. His gentle touch stopped. In fact, he stops his actionspletely. I gulped. I


    said something, wrong, I am going to die now. I’m really going to dic,


    Moments past. Silent and very ufortable moments. My heart beat furiously in my chest.


    The sound so loud,


    I can licar it, feel it over and over as I await his answer or punishment. Whichever came first, wouldn’t be


    good.


    Then he answers. His voice went from soft to cold and hard. “No.” Short and clipped.


    His answer shocked me. Yet before I could ponder on it for too long, he continues


    “All those who’ve stumbled on my territory and have been taken as prisons were threats. I don’t do well


    with threats, i kill them,”


    I knew lie was gauging for my reaction to his words. I don’t disappoint him, I stiffen with terror.


    If he finds out my secret, he’d think I was a threat He’d kill me just like he killed those prisoners.


    I needed to get out of here. And soon.


    “So no Aurora, I don’t treat them like I treat you,” He mumbles. He drops my hand.” Do you want to know


    why?”


    I pressed my lips together.


    Did I really want to know why he hadn’t killed me yet like the others?


    I nod.


    I held my breath when he reaches up and grasp some of my pink tresses and pinches the strands. He


    hums. “You’re a very curious girl Aurora,”


    My stomach does a twist that was shocking yet pleasurable as my name rolled off his tongue.” But


    curiosity killed the cat, didn’t it Aurora?” My lips press together to stop the trembling. Was he threatening


    me?


    I couldn’t tell.


    Or perhaps he was warning me to not ask him any more questions. My stomach drops when his other


    arm circles around my waist and jerks me to him. The air gets stuck in my lungs as my front presses to


    his, The hardness pressing into my stomach was evident and the feel of it alone made my body catch


    into mes.


    “Until I find out exactly what you are and what you’re hiding, I won’t tell you anything, Because you see


    Aurora,” He pulls me impossibly closer to him and I let out a shocked gasp, m y eyes lifting to his.


    Our eyes connected and the pounding of my heart intensifies.” Your life and your body now


    belong to me. I own you now Aurora which means I don’t owe you any exnation for my


    actions


    Likeratin meetiny water, Alpha Xavier wrenches wiy from mellis words had mepletely mute Mnds


    shook at my sides as his words registered


    lie owns me


    My life is in his hands


    My body belongs to him


    As I watch his retreating back, I realized that Alpha Xavier has no intentions of setting me free


    “Stay here untill give you further instructions “The door rattles from his force as he leaves eliere alone


    with my jumbled thoughts
