(Aurora’s pov) “Why aren’t you cating Aurora?” His voice made me suiffen but I refuse to turn to face
luinn, keeping my bize on the darkening sky. Hours sitting on that bed and not moving a muscle made
my waist ache. But I refuse to move
Two female wolves came to drop off tes filled with different delicious looking mcals. I refuse to take
them, not able to stomach the thought of cating anything from my captor,
To hell with himn.
He should just kill me now and be done with it. I was done being treated as a captive His boots nking
down on the floors inade me gulp softly. I counted them. Five steps until he reaches me. He must’ve
taken long strides.
I drew in some air when his big hand mps down on my shoulder Tingles so powerful írom his touch
made me squirm.
Thated feeling so weak to his touch. My body was turning from stiff to sost. This wasn’t what I wanted.
“You haven’t eaten an entire day, no?” His breath hits my neck. I pressed my bottom more into the soft
mattress wishing he’d back away a little.
The little defiance I had, well it was slowly melting away the more he got closer. His heat, daminit his
heat was surrounding me like a cocoon. It made my insides feel sunny.
I pressed my lips together and avoid turning around. He was the enemy, he wasn’t a good man cven
though he spared me. But for how long will he spare me? He made it clear that my life was in his hand
and he showed no intention of ever answering my questions.
If he did, I was certain they’d be far from the truth.
His growl near my ear made me shiver and my eyes widen. I suppose I was angering his woll.” Aurora,”
He said harshly, his grip on my shoulder almost brutal as he forced me to turn to face him.
I drop my eyes quickly, not wanting to look him in the eye, in fear of falling. The amber was too beautiful
and the man who owned them was carved by the God’s carefully. Alpha Xavier Knight was undeniably
the most handsome and mouth watering male I have ever set my sights on
And for a brief second, I pitied myself that he’d never settle for someone like me
I was too weak. Too weird looking, too…..me. As soon as the thought emerged, the quicker 1 drowned it
out in pure shame that I was breaking my promise to not make the man rule me
Where did that, ‘to hell with him,’ girl go?
“I will not allow you to disrespect me. Look at me Aurora or so God help me, I’d force you to
after i spank your ass for not answering quicker” His words were like stone and i knew in my core that
he’d definitely do what he said he would.
So I listened. My eyes slowly snaked up to his and our eyes connected His were red ilis wolf
“l’?n going to ask this once again. Why have you not eaten any of the meals i told Sarah and Josie to
bring up for you?”
I shivered by his tone. Not in Icar, sadly. But in excitement and pleasure His voice alone makes the heat
fought to keep at bay scorch between my thighs. I think he noticed.
Or at least smelled it, with the way his nostrils red like he was drawing in the most mouth watering
scent he’s ever had the pleasure of whiffing in. He falls to his knees and even though so, he was still
taller than me. I craned my neck a little to look into his eyes knowing he’d be furious if I decide to tear
them away. “I’m not hungry.” I denied. His eyes burned through me hotly Either from anger or something
else. They flickered a bright red that made fear slowly creep into my being
The defiant girl I tried to conjure up, well she was no more.
I wanted to fall to my knees and beg him to not end me. But then my stomach growls and the heat of fear
turns into an embarrassment that showed on my face.
Suddenly the scorching red diminishes into amber. Xavier’s eyes fall to my stomach and a line of worry
settles in the middle of his brows.
I wanted to reach up and rub that frown away. But something told me, it wouldn’t be a good idea
His eyes soon turn to that misty color that showed that he was in the midst of mind linking someone from
his pack. A few secondster, the red haired girl from earlieres through the door looking breathless.
In her grasp was a tray with many tes filled with the dishes I sent away a few minutes ago. Xavier
motions for the girl to bring the tray over with a wave of his hand. I stay muted, humiliated that my bodyN?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
was defying me.
She walks towards Alpha Xavier quickly, careful to not make the te topple to the floor. She looks at
her Alpha confused by his kneeling but doesn’t word it out.
I grow extremely anxious when he takes the tray from her grasp and tells her to leave. Her quick
footsteps fade away in seconds and now it was him and I alone again.
Alpha Xavier ces the tray on the bed beside me. The sweet aroma of fresh bread syed with butter
made my belly growl again. I fisted my hands on my thighs.
I hadn’t eaten for an entire day. The hunger would soon eat me alive. But I can’t look like a pushover
anymore. Someone who would bend on the knee to ask forgiveness. To beg to spare them.
Showing them you were weak would always make them have the upper hand. At least with Alpha
Raphael. But Alpha Xavier was known to even be more cruel….
Oh who was I kidding, I would always be weakpared to him.
He takes a slice of bread and guides it to my mouth.” Eat.” Hemanded.
1 pressed my lips tightly as I don’t blink at him. I don’t open my mouth to ept the bread even though
my mouth was watering. I noticed the slight tick of his jaw at my resusal He presses the bread to my lips,
urging me to open my mouth. My belly grumbles and I jerk away “I am not hungry,” I denied. Oh God
help me, please don’t make him end me here. My stupid little dence would have me end up being
killed by the most vicious Alpha.
In a quick sh, his fingers painsully dig into my chin and hold my face still. My heart pounds a s the
flocks of red emerge back into his eyes “You will eat something even if i’ll have to force feed you mysell.
Now open your pretty little mouth and, cat.” He growls and my lips tremble as they part. He pushes the
bread into my mouth and looking at me with a raised brow, I bit into the soft bread.
