Chapter 3
Amelia’s POV
“What—what are you doing?” I stuttered.
A mischievous grin crawled up his face. “You should have expected the worst when you chose to barge in instead of knocking.”
Was I going crazy or was it the alcohol because ordinarily, I should be scared? But why did his breath sear my skin and fan flames through my body?
Get a grip, Amy! I chided myself as I shook my head to regain my composure.
“I don’t know what you are trying to do, but this,” I shoved the keys at his face. “This is your car key!”
“And I want to be out of here immediately!” I added with an edge to my voice.
“Liar.” He snorted as he lowered his head towards me and I quickly squeezed my eyes shut in panic.
“I can smell your arousal.” His arms slid to my waist— wrapped around it firmly as he pinned me against the door.
“What– what are you doing?” I managed to ask in a voice that sounded nothing like mine.
“What do you think I’m doing?” He breathed against my ear, sending a wave of desire spiraling down my spine.
Without warning, his head descended towards my lips and he claimed my lips in a hungry kiss.
Every coherent thought tumbled out of my mind and I couldn’t tell whether it was still the alcohol working or if it was just my lust taking over.
Either way, I just wanted to remain hopelessly lost like right now. He deepened the kiss and a tsunami of need flooded me—warm and wet.
My limbs weakened and he seemed to get my message as he whisked me off the ground and lowered me into the bed.
My brain flickered on and off and my subconscious mind screamed in between desire and warning. No! This was wrong. He was a stranger and I shouldn’t be doing it.
Maybe you could call me a deaf person again because the next minute, I was sliding off my blouse, feeling the warmth of his body against mine as he climbed atop me.
I was completely nude now as his hands explored my body like I was some delicate piece. His fingers circled around my twin peaks and I felt them tightening as I arched my back, pushing my wetness against his erection.
Finally, he slowly pushed his erection into my moistness and his face went wide in horror the moment he met the restriction.
He shot me a questioning glance and I bit my lips hard.
“Please, just do it.”
It was as though that was all he needed for his beastly side to turn loose. A low growl tore out of his throat as he thrust into me again.
I felt a spasm of pain at my core as my muscles snarled to adjust to his size. In no time, both of us were dancing in the same rhythm and I felt like I was about to lose my mind.
The feeling was so foreign. It was nothing like what anyone had ever made me feel. Not even Zach.
And the last thing I saw before pleasure racked my body and sent me out of my mind was the man’s face twisting and contorting with pleasure.
****
An alarm went off in my head and my eyes peeled open. The room was so bright that I didn’t see anything for a while until my eyes adjusted to the brightness.
I wasn’t in my room. I leaped off the bed immediately, glancing sharply around the luxurious space. The wall was painted a soft lavender with a vanity mirror that was no doubt gold close to the bed.
Where was I? I screamed inwardly as I walked to the mirror and stared at my reflection. Why was I in this ridiculous dress and why–;
Shit! I bit down on my lips as the memories of the last night came flooding in. Wait a minute, this wasn’t the hotel we’d spent the night.
Could the man have kidnapped me? Panic flooded my mind as I picked up my phone from the dressing table and scowled at the screen.
11 am. Just how long have I been sleeping? I had to leave immediately before Zach or Ria found me. I quickly went out of the room and walked stealthily down the stairs.
“Sneaking out like a criminal?” I heard a frosty voice behind me and I froze.
I slowly turned to see the man from yesterday, sitting at the dining table, seemingly engrossed in a magazine he held.
“Why did you bring me here?” I shot out angrily.
“Good morning to you too and you’re welcome.” He said without glancing up.
I glared at him as I closed the distance between us. “Why did you bring me to your house and why am I in this ridiculous dress?” I demanded angrily.
He finally looked at me now and if I had by chance forgotten how handsome he was, I was once again reminded.
“If this is the thank you I deserve for bringing you home after you puked on my dress and yours, then you can take off the clothes and leave naked.”
A faint heat stole over my face instantly. Did I really ruin his clothes and mine? I was lost for what to say.
“I’m sorry for ruining your dress,” I said quietly then started towards the door.
“Actually, I think you will have to move in with me.”
My movement halted and I turned to face him in shock, furrowing my brows.
“What— what are you even saying?”
A disturbed look crossed his features but soon disappeared. “Well, things got a bit complicated and I didn’t intend to—”
The sound of my phone ringing cut him off. Without the caller ID, I answered the call and I soon regretted it as a voice sounded from the other end.
Zach!
I brought the phone away from my ear quickly, a scowl forming on my face. His voice drifted out of the phone’s speaker again.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing, huh?”
I furrowed my brows. “What are you talking about?”
He snorted angrily. “How dare you feign ignorance? What’s with the article that’s been trending online? Do you think you can escape by doing that? Come back here in five minutes!”
“What the hell are you talking—-”
The sound of the dial tone cut me off and my frown deepened. Who did he think he was to tell me what to do and what was the gibberish about an article?
I quickly looked up the trending news of the morning and what I saw next had a gasp tearing out of my throat.
It was a picture of me and the man I just had a one-night stand with and it had a caption that read:
“Alpha Xavier of Phoenix Blood pack caught with his secret girlfriend. Who is she?”
