I could not believe he did that . The dickhead ! Urgh, I was so going to get him for this I “ Guys ? * Liam said again , his eyes now a deep magnetic navy . Justin, carry on with the training . * The young man, who was in his mid — 20s , nodded — motioning for everyone to carry on . Raven looked at me and I gave her a flip .... nod . I needed her . Guaranteed , Liam will Liam walked off and we all knew he Damon . wanted us to follow him . I looked at * We got this . * He said through the link . I took a deep breath as we followed Liam into the packhouse and into the lounge . H sola . e looked around , seeing two teens on the " out ” He said curtly . Liam was friendly , however when he got angry , it wasn't good
Raven shut the door after the two boys left and he turned his darkened eyes on us . “ Care to explain why you're fucking my sister ? “ He said , now turning to Damon . With anger radiating off of him the air in the room felt thick . I looked at Damon , who looked calm . Should I speak ? “ Calm down, Liam.“ Damon said . “ Don't tell me to calm down , yeah ? When you've gone behind my back ! Of all the girls ... my sister , really Damon ? “ Liam said . “ Since when have you two been dating ? “ * We aren't. ” I said suddenly . I didn't want anything to make matters worse . Liam turned to me and, if anything , looked more pissed off . “ Look , I'm not a kid Liam . Unlike you , my views on things are different . This decision between Damon and me was made together . So just stop with this Alpha male crap . ” So , you two are fuck partners ? ” Liam said , sounding a little disbelieving .
" Friends with benefits ? * Damon added helpfully before sighing . “ Look bro , it wasn't meant to come out . The plan was t 0 end it once we met our mates . Look, it's been a while and neither of us has found i t getting in the way of our normal 3) relationship . * Liam frowned ; I knew he couldn't get his head around it . Liam was a one — woman man . In all honesty , I don’t know how many women he’s been with , but he does not sleep around . Something mom was super proud of . ” Someone will get hurt ... Do you two think you two are mates ? “ He asked quietly . ” There's a chance.” “ No. “I said at the same time Damon had spoken . I looked up at him . Guilt filled me when I saw the flash of hurt flicker through his eyes . There were no feelings between us, right ? Just a sexual attraction maybe ? But I think I might be wrong .... ” Liam, they aren't kids . If they want to do this, then who are we to butt in ? “ Raven said , the usual energy — filled girl was quiet and serious . “ Rather me than someone else, right ? “ Damon said quietly . Liam ignored him . “ Do you think this is ok ?! You know what ? Do what you want . Kiara always likes to act like she knows what she’s doing , and you Damon , you're the one who's going to get hurt in this . Trust me .
" He shook his head and stormed out of the room . ” Liam ! “ Raven said . I saw the pain in her eyes and the hurt look she cast at Damon before she rushed from the room . I sat down and sighed . ” He'll be ok . “ Damon said . “ The Alp was a bit of a prick though , mention like that.” ” A bit ? The guy's a complete dick . “ I snapped . “ Leave it. Trust me , he isn't worth it . “ Damon replied quietly I looked up at him , now remembering the look in his eyes when I had said no . “ Damon, you don't like me, do you ? “I said standing up and walking over to him , not missing the way his heart began to race . ” Course I do . You're my favourite girl . “ H e said it with a smile . I didn't smile back . He was avoiding my actual question . “ You know what I mean, Damon . “ I replied . Thinking back , he had joked about dating a few times . ” Kia, it doesn't matter . You've never considered it as more . >> He placed his hands on my upper arms, giving them a gentle squeeze .
But I had just got my answer, like a slap to show me I had been so blind to it . “ Damon, didn't I say to you if feelings crop up that we should ... * He cut me off b y cupping my chin and placing a thumb o n my lips . “ That was my choice . I'm fine . I don’t want you feeling guilty . * I looked down . What did I feel ? Yes , there was that chemistry that I found him attractive but if I compared it to the strong emotions that had filled me recently when it came to a certain jerk it wasn't the same ... But even those were just sexual . I sure was confused . “ Kia , look at me . ” He said , tilting my head up slightly . This felt too intimate ... I couldn't do this . * I'm sorry Damon , but Liam was right Someone was going to get hurt. We shouldn't do this anymore . * I whispered . Why did it feel like I was being untruthful to myself ? Is this about Liam or Alpha Alejandro ? “ Damon asked softly . My eyes widened and my heart thudded . I stepped back . * I don’t know . But let's end it. Bes the blood moon is coming , so we will most likely meet our mates . I said quietly . There were two blood moons in a year, but for one the Alpha king hosted a huge ceremony . The success of finding your mate there was high . The last blood moon Damon hadn't found his mate , but he was only 18 going on 19, so there was plenty of time .
"If that's what you want . “ He said, flashing me that sinile that he always gave me . I stepped closer , flinging my arms around his neck tightly . I was upset and there was only one person I had to blame . “ I'll always be here for you, Kia . Even if I'm no longer your fuckbuddy . " He said with a chuckle . " I'm sorry it's ending like this . * I said quietly . “ Th make it up to me . “ He said with a glint in his eyes as he held me by my waist, pulling me against him.” Go on ... “ ” One last night ? My heart skipped a beat, I was already confused ... But I couldn't refuse him . Not when he never refused me . I smiled and nodded . “ You've got yourself a deal , Beta . * I said with a wink, before hugging him once again . I smiled slightly as he hugged me tightly , caressing my bare waist . * You're still number one . “ * Hmm until you meet your mate . ” I said amused as I stepped back , feeling a tiny bit better . “ Yeah . But what if we are mates ? ” “ Then I'd be a lucky girl . “I said , although deep down I didn't think we were
The small smile on his face was worth it . I turned away , feeling the guilt wrap around me as it slowly morphed into anger . Anger at one certain Alpha who I was not going to let off . I left the packhouse , trying to sniff him out. ” Searching for someone ? * I turned , shocked at the sight of my grandfather Jackson . ” Grandad ?! “ “ In the flesh cutie patootie . ” He chuckled . I squealed and rushed over to him , ignoring the pain that set a spasm up my leg as I launched myself into his arms . Cutie patootie . A name dad had called me since I was little , and unlike dad who had switched to angel , granddad still called m e it. " Has Grandma come ? “ ” Not this time . ” he said, kissing my forehead . Grandad and grandma lived out of the pack . It's been years but they liked the privacy . To be honest, granddad and clashed a lot .
I was around eleven when I learned that dad and mom were step siblings before they found out they were mates . Apparently , they fell in love before the blood moon . I loved their story. Tome, it was romantic and not weird at all . Because of the constant clashing, and the fact their parents were married , they moved away . Although grandad was perfectly fine with it now , dad didn’t seem to be able to let go of that grudge . It was a typical behaviour of dad's . He can't forgive others quickly or himself , I knew h e still felt guilty about my ankle . Although they didn't live here anymore , Dad kept their mansion in good shape and they stayed in it when they visited . * Why are you here ? " I asked as he set me down again . ” The King's here . There are a few things he's discussing and I thought I'd come to see if your dad needs help . “ “ Ah, I see.” " Well, I won't stop you . You look like someone with a goal in mind . ” He said with a small smile . I nodded . Damn yeah , I had a goal to claw a certain jerks eyes out I “ I'll see you later , granddad ! I calic before hurrying off . It took me a further ten minutes before I caught the intoxicating woody scent mixed with male musk . My stomach flipped and I frowned . How could a man b e so sexually attractive while also being a complete jerk ? Oh, wait ! You just need to behave like a prick , like the Alpha king . “ Do you really have to ruin my day by showing me that face of yours ? ” His annoying voice came .
I frowned and scanned the area . He was here , but where ? I gasped when he suddenly landed in front me , a dangerous look on his face . I looked up at the tree behind him then back at him.” Before speaking , remember my warning . “ He said coldly , his dark eyes piercing into me . I gulped despite myself . What's he going t 0 do ? Me being me, I had to speak . ” After causing issues by opening your mouth, do you think I care ? Fuck your warning and fuck you. ” 5 That was the wrong reply . I felt the darkness swirl around him . His eyes blazed red as his power wrapped around me like a storm, pressing down on me . The urge to yield filled me . Run ! Danger ! It was what my wolf was screaming , but my feet were rooted to the spot , refusing to budge . I closed my eyes the moment his hand wrapped around m y neck . The most dangerous sinister grow! I have ever heard left his lips and my heart pounded against my rib cage, sending shivers up my spine . Never had I heard something so terrifying . It made me want to cower and yield to him . I think I just pissed off the Alpha king . Scratch that , I definitely did .
