Sold To The Untouchable Alpha

[lvan's POV]

I didn't know what to say as Arissa's words hit me. In a way, she was right, but hearing that from someone so young was a little unnerving.

"Anyway," she continued, "I appreciate you helping me escape that hell, uncle. But I don't want to live with you."

Turning, she began to make her way deeper into the forest as I tried to get myself together.

"What have I told you about using that word?" I growled, moving forward and grabbing her.

I lifted her, heaving her over my shoulder, and smacked her luscious ass while she tried to process what was going on.

"What?" She yelped as I smacked a second time. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" "What have I told you about using that word?"

If she was going to forget, then I would make her remember. Personally, I didn't have an issue with using it as an excuse to touch her ass.

"Now, we're going back so you can get cleaned up and treated.”

I didn't miss the fact that her arms were scratched up from where the arrows hit her. Her face also sported bloody marks, and the dress she was currently wearing was now covered in blood.

"I said I didn't want!" Arissa growled as I began to move. "Put me down!"

"Not happening."

Since I brought her to the estate, I had been lenient and it was time to teach her to obey. I would break this defiant attitude and make sure nothing like this happened again.

When we got back, I immediately took her to her room. I continued to move until I was standing in the bathroom. Leaning down, I turned on the spout, allowing steaming hot water to begin to fill the tub.

"What are you doing?" Arissa asked as I began to move her off my shoulder.

"This," I snapped, throwing her into the water that had already gathered.

"AAHHH!"

Not moving, I watched as she flailed in the water and had to suppress the urge to laugh. When she was flustered, she reminded me of a puppy, and I found it quite endearing.

"YOU ASSHOLE!" She screamed, ruining the moment. "What the hell?"

"You need to wash.” I responded in amusement.

"So you decided it was a good idea to throw me in the water fully clothed?"

She was trying her best to look intimidating, but soaking wet, she looked far from it.

"You called me uncle.” I pointed out, deciding to tease her a bit so her feathers would get ruffled even more.

"And?" She challenged.

"I specifically remember telling you that I would punish you every time you used it."

For a moment, she just stared at me, her face turning redder and redder with rage.

"l..I..." She stammered, unable to form sentences. "Forget it."

In an instant, she relaxed and submerged herself further. The look of anger that had been on her face moments prior shifted to one of amusement.

"Well then, if I have to bathe, I suppose these clothes should go.”

What? What was she getting at and how was it possible that her mood shifted so quickly?

"Would you like to help me take them off?"

As she spoke, she eyed me. Her frail hand lifted and began to tug at the strings that held her top together, allowing her chest to begin to come into view. "You're already naked. Why not join?" "You're playing with fire, little girl.” I growled, beginning to feel my desire rise. "I'm not one to get flustered and back down.”

This woman's moods shifted quicker than the seasons, and if she wanted to test me, I would play along.

Leaning down, I brought my face close to hers, so our breaths began to intermingle. I could easily feel the heat of her skin pressing against mine, causing my dick to throb with anticipation.

"You're hopeless.” She giggled, leaning back.

"Wha..."

It didn't take me long to realize that she was intentionally building me up, and anger rolled through me.

"You'll pay for that.” I growled, leaning forward and taking her mouth with my own.

For a moment, she remained frozen, confused by my sudden actions. However, it didn't take long for her mouth to open in protest, giving me the opening that I needed.

Sucking her bottom lip into my mouth, I bit down, instantly tasting blood. Letting go, I pulled away and stood, giving a smirk.

"I'll let you off this time, but next time I won't.”

She didn't speak, didn't move. Her eyes were huge and she seemed oblivious to the fact that blood was welling up where I had bitten. It was her turn to be flustered, and damn, that look was satisfying.

"Make sure you get all the blood off of you and then go find Christine to treat your wounds.” I commanded while turning.

She didn't speak as I walked out of the room, but I could feel her murderous gaze burning into my back.

I bit back the laugh that wanted to escape until I made it out of her room entirely. It seemed that things around here were about to get interesting. But for now, I needed to inform Hans and Igor of Arissa's run-in with the hunters

Although she had managed to kill most of them and the others ran away in fear, that didn't change the fact that they came too close to the estate and I couldn't let that go.

After sending them both a message through mindlink, I threw on some clothes and made my way to my office to wait.

When I arrived, I found that my door was cracked.

Immediately, I went on alert. I had left it closed, so who the hell was brave enough to enter without permission?

Moving slowly, I sniffed at the air and got a whiff of a very familiar scent.

Rushing forward, I burst in, my eyes scanning the room.

He was sitting at my desk casually, his hands clasped in front of him. His dark eyes held amusement as his lips twisted into a smirk.

Since the last time I saw him, he had buzzed his head and grown a goatee. His skin was also much tanner.

"You..." I hissed, trying to contain my rage.

Smiling even more broadly, he stood and made his way around the desk, his arms wide open.

"Is that how you greet your own father?" He asked, feigning hurt. "It has been a while, son."
