Chapter Chapter eighteen
Leila.
I have been having a blast for the past two days seeing Alpha John trying to impress me. He is always in my space, wanting to talk, etc. It is funny seeing him disregard his Luna for me. Yesterday, for example, Luna Katie sent me on an errand and he volunteered to come with me while Viviane was sitting right next to him.
A dog will always be a dog!
I declined without a second thought or hesitation. I would have wished to use this opportunity to really teach Viviane a lesson but I am a Lycan, and my mate is a Lycan, if you think werewolves are possessive then you have never met a Lycan before.
I don't want to start anything here. I don't play with fire unless I want it burning somehow. Burning Viviane will be so wonderful but she is not my time and effort. Her constant red eyes from her mate's recent rejections and indifference will have to suffice.
I have noticed since being a full Lycan how cruel I have become. The hurt that flashed through John's eyes when I declined his request to follow me gave me an exhilarating feeling. I love seeing them hurt and feel pain.
My Lycan nature leaves no room to hide my feelings or to camouflage them. They are right before me and my only option is to embrace it.
Leone has become much more intolerant of disrespect and all forms of nonsense towards her. And I now constantly have to fight with her to keep her in check. We are not yet able to control our power and from what Clayton said, our species is not supposed to show themselves openly.
Oh, the fear I see in the pack members when I walk around. A three hundred and sixty turn around from how things were just a few days ago and I savor all of it.
Even though Alpha Jacob and Luna Katie have always been respected, first as the alpha couple of the pack and then as the parents of the actual alpha and as the former Alpha couple, some members of the council of elders had recently been obnoxious towards them since they are no longer in office. Well, their respect has definitely found their place back if not higher since they know how important they are to me. You fuck with them, I fuck you up. Simple.
Clayton will soon be here, and I can't wait. Two days has proven to be a very long time. Stress on that very long time, please.
Luna Katie and I are in the kitchen preparing the meal to receive our visitors. I begged her not to overdo things but she wouldn't listen.
"I can't receive an alpha and my son-in-law just like that," she had reprimanded me and I surrendered. She has made so much food you'd think she will be receiving his entire Pack members and not just him and his close friends. Puff...
All the help I received from alpha Jacob was him laughing at me and wishing me good luck in calming his mate. I knew her too so I knew it was 'mission impossible'
The rumbling sound of a car outside made me jump from the stool I was seated on and run out the door like a bat out of hell.
There he is...
Clayton stepped out of his car and looked like a model fresh out of a magazine cover. Clayton in shorts was hot, Clayton in casual clothes was hot, but Clayton in a suit was nothing short of breathtaking. My steps faltered as I gazed and took in my man. He is hypnotizing. His deep gray eyes are fixed on my light blue-gray ones and my breath catches in my throat. God, I've missed him so damn much it hurts.
He leans on the car crossing a foot over the other, putting his hands in his pants suit, and watches me take small steps in a sexy catwalk towards him. The smile he gives me is burning my inside. The air is sizzling around us. Electricity Skittering and tension building like a volcano is about to erupt.
When I finally get to where he is standing he makes a quick move and has me pinned to the car in a flash before crashing his mouth to mine in a toe-curling, mind-blowing kiss. My brain cells freeze on the spot as I respond to his canal need with mine. I push my hands in his thick dark chocolate hair and grab them, pushing my body into his. His hands skim my body over my breasts, caressing and flicking over my nipples. My body jerks into his a long and soft moan leaves my throat. His hands continue down to my ass where he gives them a firm squeeze. I let out a shaky moan in his mouth again and he grunts in response. His mouth leaves mine and slides a hot, fevered trail down the side of my throat, making me gasp and moan, writhing against him. I'm about to combust from the inferno he has lit up in me. My legs buckle down when I feel his canines grazing my mark and beating into my soft flesh and I go crazy with need.
I slide my hands down to cup his rock-hard erection that was pressing on my lower abdomen and he groaned grabbing my thigh and lifting so he could thrust his cock on my sensitive clit. I close my eyes, my head falling backward at the sensation coursing through my body.
Someone clears their throats after some time, and Clayton growls in warning, but the clearing throat sounds only increase till he reluctantly separates himself from me breathing hard and fast. Our chests heaving. I turn to the direction of the direction of sound and I'm embarrassed that it's only now that I notice Chase, Caroline, Chloe, and Ruben are also there. Even so, the fog in my brain is not cleared enough for me to quit registering that I was about to fuck Clayton against his limo in the open, but once it does holy fuck... I flush scarlet red. My cheeks burned.
"Hi guys..." I say tentatively with a sheepish look once my breathing has calmed down a little and I feel my brain coming back to life. God, how embarrassing.
"Hello to you too Luna. For a moment there, I thought we had become invisible or something," Caroline always the sharp mouth says with a smile. You know that fake smile right? Yes, that one.
"Stop. You know you're invisible to our Luna if Clayton is there," Chase says in a dud sound as if it were a law and we all burst out laughing.
"You do not want to meet her parents with your tongue down her throat Alpha," Chloe says in a fake stern voice and we laugh again.
As if on cue, my parents come out, followed by John and Viviane. John and Viviane do not have a choice but to welcome an Alpha in their territory. The look on John's face though when he sees my disheveled appearance haha.
Clayton and I walk towards my parents and the alpha couple as I do my best to fix my dress and hair, praying my face has somewhat become normal. I am wearing a mid-thigh yellow sun dress with spaghetti straps and a pair of sandals. The blemish skin of my face is free from any makeup.
"Clayton, welcome to our home," my mom beams at my man giving me a wink. Oh, she finds him hot... I chuckle to myself and wink back at her.
He is a little taken aback and I know Zeus doesn't like the disrespect. Stripping his title from Lycan to Alpha was already a great deal and now calling his name without even the Alpha title must be hard.
I tighten my hold on his hand, and he instantly relaxes.
"Thank you Luna the pleasure is mine..." Mon cuts him off immediately.
"Nonsense. For this big guy and I, it is mom and dad, Leave the alpha and Luna thing to those two," she says motioning to John and Viviane.
I never thought carrying the titles of Alpha and Luna could be an insult, but today, I know better.
After we are all done with introductions, we move in to enjoy all that Mom prepared. A feast.
My parents were so overjoyed seeing how Clayton paid attention to me and treated me like a princess not caring who saw his display of affection and I was just as enamored with him.
"Now, I can sleep with my two eyes closed and not worry about you. You have someone who will cherish you as much as we do if not more," Dad says nonchalantly, but I tear up because it is the first time if ever said anything like that. His nonchalant voice doesn't fool me one bit. It is him expressing his love for me. Mom and I beamed at him while he grumbled under his breath.
I turn to Clayton when I feel him give a gentle squeeze to my arm and the look of pure love and adoration he gives me, draws a single tear from my eye, which he leans in and kisses away pressing his forehead to mine with a dazzling smile.
I don't know what I did to deserve a man like him, but I'm eternally grateful.
