Truth or dare
Far from his usual expressionless and grumpy expression because the next thing I heard him say felt like “I love you! I fucking love you, why do you have to make me say it when everyone knows it!”
I stared at him deadpan, reading his expression to see if he was lying. I could feel his alpha pheromones oozing, he was letting it all out to make me feel and it feels suffocating. I feel like it chokes me, not letting me breathe.
Of course, it has to be. There is no way..right?
I scoffed at him, “No you don’t.”
“You’re in denial. You can’t accept my love for you, Arya.”. He stated disbelief was plastered on his face.
“Then what do you want me to do? Believe our lies? And then what? Accept your heart and move on from the past?” I sarcastically responded, “Kai, it isn’t that simple.”
I couldn’t even imagine putting the word “love” in the same sentence as Kai. I do not even have faith in the word love. To. Me, that is just bullshit...
Love and Kai are two opposite things that will happen. And I am not in a fairytale to get swept off of my feet and for him to be carried like a princess.
“Do you remember the first thing we did back at the pack when we knew you were our mate?” He suddenly asked out of topic.
“What?”
“The necromancer’s prophecy of the Lycan king catching us. But I don’t think that would even happen.” He muttered his sharp gray eyes pinning me to the ground.
“So?”
“That would mean that we can change our fate. Arya just gives in to me. You know I can take care of you and our pups. I’ll find a way. Well, make it happen.”
This is such a rare occurrence, for kai to assure me like this, for him to be willing to go to such lengths just o prove it to me. “Well, I do not care about that. I’m trying to survive here, do you know what it feels to even live like an omega rogue?”
He suddenly pulled me in a hug, embracing me as he planted a soft kiss on my head gently, “I know, I am sorry you have to experience that. I promise, Arya-.”
As much as I wanted to stay in his arms, locked in his strong and big arms capable of protecting me, I knew I was only falling into a trap. I should be the one laying the trap here.
I broke our hug and instantly turned around, sighing and then walking away without another word.
I want to be alone for now…
When I came outside, I spotted Kira holding something weird, and I knew she was up to something.
Gusev was beside her, helping her and being supportive of her ideas.
“Arya!” Gusev greeted me, sensing me as Kira instantly turned her head to me.
I planted an instant smile so they did not notice that I just got into a heated argument with Kai.
“Are you alright, my love?” Gusev was instantly hugging me from behind, and I let him do his naughty tricks, being his usual self. I’ll let this slide for now since I am not feeling like arguing more.
“You’ ’re strangely…quiet and meek now….did something happen?” He asked, “you should be yelling at me for hugging you like this.”
I smiled, “No, I am alright.”
Kira instantly stood up and joined in hugging me, “so, I am up to something.”
“I can see that.” I glanced at the strange human materials she has there. I believe they are called scissors and paper cups. She seems to be cutting something and turning it into a decorative piece.
“Since I and Kai just got it from that dreadful situation, I am planning on making something light for us to enjoy. Plus, I know we are soon going back to our own packs. This would be a parting gift.”
I nodded, seems like an interesting idea to let my mind wander off a bit. I guess I’ll have to try it. “Go on then, do you need help? With something?”
She smirked, “you’re participating? And even offering to help me?” She squalled, “But I can do it alone, I have Gusev helping. Me. Plus I just want your presence. Later.”
I nodded, “How about the Lycan king? Did he approve of it?”
She nodded, “yes, he said he’ll be back before twilight and make it in time.”
I blinked, “Oh? Where did he go?”
“His usual morning patrol.” I nodded, he must still be paranoid fro the recent incident with the Human fowlers despite destroying their facility recently…
I let Kira and Gusev do their planning and when the sun had set and everything was ready, Kira called me out, along with Alpha Kamilah an alpha Magnus who looked curious too.
Ah, this must be a human thing. Almost all of us here are confused except Gusev who was smirking earlier, looking excited for us to begin.
“I canceled the pack meeting for this, “ Alpha Magnus mumbled. “I hope this would be good.”
Alpha Kamilah gave him a look, and he was instantly silenced. Alpha Kamilah saw me staring at her and she offered a smile which I smiled back.
Across me, I saw Kai gazing at me... I admit that I have been avoiding her since our argument earlier and he looked like he wanted to talk more but is giving me space.
I appreciate that, I just don't want to talk with him for now…
Kira cleared her throat, as Lyan King Ace appears behind her, the only person was waiting for.
He kissed Kira’s forehead and she smiled at him before clearing her throat to call our attention, "Everyone, me and Gusev planned something.” She started, “Were busy preparing everything so I hope every one of you would participate in this game.”
She grabbed a colorful ball and explained, “Alright, so a song would be played here. While the song is playing, this ball is passed to the next person sitting beside you until the music stops. The person who’s holding the ball when the music stops will have to do a truth or dare. The one who can ask them or dare them is the one sitting to their right.”
I nodded, not familiar with tis kind of game. It must be a human thing.
Everyone instant positioned themselves ad I was beside alpha Magnus and Gusev. The ball was from Kira ad when the song started to play, she then passed it out to the next person, which is Alpha Ace, and then to Kai and alpha Kamilah.
It went on for a few seconds until the song stopped at Alpha Magnus beside me.
All eyes were on me and I gulped.
“Come on, ask him truth or dare,” Gusev whispered to me.
I faced Alpha Magnus, “Truth or dare?”
He thought about it and then answered, “Truth.”
“Ask him anything,” Gusev whispered, guiding me to this game.
I cleared my throat, “So…when you knew that alpha Kamilah was your mate….did instantly her instantly?” I glanced at Alpha Kamilah who was waiting for alpha Magnus’s reaction.
