8. Pure Unadulterated Lust.

Elena.

His eyes moved away from mine but only because he was looking at my body. I saw his gaze travel down to my waist, hips, and then my legs. My body started to warm up under his scrutinizing stare. His eyes stayed there for a few seconds before he moved back to my face. The look that he gave me made me stagger back a step. At my reaction, his lips tilted upward slightly into a small smirk that was hard to see. But it was there. That devilish smirk. Sexy devilish smirk. I shook my head and closed my eyes quickly as I tried to get myself under control. It was impossible. Without even trying, Deangelo Ferrari had successfully taken over my mind. Opening my eyes, I stared into his. He gave me the same look as before, clearly not trying to hide what he wanted. Pure unadulterated lust. His eyes were filled with desire and hunger.

His sexual innuendos mystified me, I couldn't help but hope that he doesn't ask me to do horrific things like warm his bed while he gives me shelter and protection in return. That would be disastrous and scary since that was one of the things I was running away from in the first place.

"Well, I honestly do not know what you can do but I'm willing to give you shelter and work under my home, and that's only because you look pitiful and seem to have no evil intention, but then, I could also be wrong because you could simply be so good at perfecting your pity look." He said and I quickly went down on my knees in both gratitude and plead.

"Thank you so much for the chance sir, I promise you that I have absolutely no intention sir, I... can't afford to." I stuttered as tears of joy and gratitude streamed down my face. I was ecstatic, the moon goddess had bestowed a second chance on me, she has decided that I deserve to be happy an free afterall.

"Well, I'll be the judge of that... so do not think you've fooled me, I'll have both my eyes and that of my pack on you. Should there be any slip up at all, be rest assured that you aren't going to be thrown out, can you guess what will he done to you?" He asked in a threatening tone that sent shivers down my spine.

"Uh... uhm... I'll be punished?" I choked out, my throat suddenly running dry.

"How exactly?" He pushed with a creepy smile and I was unable to open my mouth and respond further, I was terrified. When he saw that he wasn't going to get any response from my shivering self, he spoke, "no, it's not death. That's too lenient, I'll make sure that you loose every single one of your limbs and fingers, and then I'll feed you to my men and I don't mean food wise only, so if I were you, I would pray that whatever you told me about yourself is really the truth." He warned and I nodded vehemently like an agama lizard.

His dark eyes transmit a warning I receive loud and clear: I’m dangerous. Dont dare lie to me. Stay away. Keep your distance. Too late though because I already lied and his hungry eyes and hypnotic voice have already snared me. Despite the warning, I knew that I had already broken his very first rule.

He studied me with unblinking intensity. Neither of us moved. We simply stared at each other. Heat suffused my cheeks. A muscle flexed in his jaw. Finally, he moved. Never taking his gaze off my face, he reached into his coat, pulled out his phone and began to dial on it. For a moment, he looked like he was trying to decide about something, his brow furrowed and his expression pensive. Then he exhales a slow breath at the same time that he placed the phone to his ear, "get in here." He simply said and then he hung up immediately.

A man that I had been seeing by his side many times than others appeared in a matter of seconds, if I were to guess right, I would say he's the beta around here. "Yes, Alpha." He said, in his 'ready for anything' stance.

"Is the nanny coming back yet?"

"No, Alpha. I don't think she's coming back at all, I was just planning on letting you know, she said she would like to focus on her new born baby, she also added that the kids are too much for her to handle." The Beta explained.

I was immediately confused as i looked back and forth between them. Kids? Nanny?

"Ugh... that's the third nanny this year. To think that I got someone in her middle age because I thought the elderly ones just didn't understand them enough. Anyhow, do you think she'll do?" The Alpha Deangelo asked as he looked in my way.

"Uh... sir. To be honest, I think she's too young to cater for even herself much more kids. Plus I don't think they'll even like her, she'll be like an older sister to them, she's way too young sir." The beta said and I found myself almost hating him for discouraging his leader and my benefactor that way.

I finally found a place to rest my head, my lies and my secrets and he's ruining it for me? I knew that I had to speak up for myself even though I still had no idea what he was talking about as much as I needed to. But I'll take whatever job that I'm given, as long as I'll be able to hide under this man's umbrella and pack. I'm not going to let his beta ruin my last chance at survival.

"I can do whatever job sir, I promise you. You will not regret taking this chance on me, please, let me at least prove myself to you, please." I plead directly to the alpha whole throwing subtle glances at his beta.

"Oh, you don't need to plead. I'm giving the job to you anyways, I can't find anywhere to get a quick and thoroughly scanned through nanny now and given the nature of my pack, I can't just accept anybody. So the job is yours, I'll..."

"Daddy. Daddy!" Two kids rushed in suddenly, an older one who's female and the younger one who's male. The male child rushed onto Deangelo's legs while he hugs him cheerfully.

Daddy? He's a daddy?

I was confused and dumbfounded, yes, he already mentioned kids a couple of times but not once did I ever think that those kids would be his own, maybe his niece, nephew or cousins but his biological kids? He doesn't even look a day over twenty-five.

Does that mean he's married? Oh my God, Did he do all of that sexual stuff with me despite having a wife?
