Kiss
I gently kissed her bangs, her closed eyes, her cheeks and finally stopped at her lips. How beautiful she looked right now in the moonlight. I lowered my lips to hers. I was like a thirsty man and she gave me water. I kissed her passionately and she met my lips with equal ardour. We were sinking in our feelings for each other. We couldn't smell anything, but us. My hands wandered on her shoulder and came to rest at her breasts. She sighed against my lips and I groaned her name.
That's when I noticed that we weren't alone. I caught a familiar smell and broke my kiss. She stared at me with confusion and slowly followed my gaze. The realisation drawn on her moved away from me as though I burned her. She looked extremely embarrassed for being seen in such away. But I remained where I was. She mumbled an excuse and ran away. I decided to face my fiance alone. I didn't know what to say. I didn't know what she expected of me.
"Alpha, I'm not going to act as if I'm a jealous fiance but the way she ran away I think you have failed to mention to her the nature of my marriage. But it's still a marriage and had to be respected at least before our tribe. I came only to warn you not to indulge in public", she said. " I don't need your advice Annabeth, I know what my responsibilities are. I don't need a lecture from you", I said feeling annoyed. "I'm sorry Alpha you are facing this but you have to remember I had foregone my mate too", she concluded. "Yes, for your selfish desire for power and position", I told her. Her head hung in shame.
What a monster, am I? This girl has been nothing but supportive but still, I was angry at her. Why? For the obvious reason, she interrupted our little foreplay. I'm a sick son of bitch unable to take accountability for my actions. I was blaming everyone around me except me.
" I'm sorry I was out of line. It won't happen again, forgive me. I know you have always been faithful to me but I was the one who was wandering", I admitted. She raised her head and I noticed unshed tears in her. Crap I hurt her hard. We all make decisions about our lives and I had the nerve to insult her. Me being the worst decision maker ever.
I went to hold her and she cried hard. I felt pretty bad for her and hugged her. She didn't deserve the unhappiness I had put her through. Maybe we all should own our mistakes so that way we don't have to suffer and not others suffer as well. That's when I noticed my mate walking towards us. She was far but could perfectly see what was happening as I hugged my fiance. I could see a flash of hurt pass through her face and then slowly she walked back. I wanted to call her back but didn't know what to say.
I said goodbye to Annabeth and came back to my building. I passed her door while walking towards mine. Gosh, how distracting it was to have her live next to me. She is so close to me that I didn't know if I could survive without her being near me. After my wedding day she had decided to leave which was instant relief for me. There was no way I could start a new life with her being steps away.
I laid on my bed and waited for the sun to rise. Sleeping was not even a part of my thoughts. I was going insane from the constant back and forth actions between us. My heart was as though reignited burned with love for her. It could throw hundreds of Annabeths away for a single day with my mate.
I had to reign my thoughts in or everything would end in catastrophe. I'm scared that if I screw up there won't be any family for me to save anymore. I decided being so near her was clouding my thoughts so I decided to go to my office. I paused for a second before her door. I could hear her rhythmic breathing, at least one of us managed to sleep tonight!
When I reached my office I was greeted by Li and Seb both were working on something. "Why are you up so early"?, I asked them.
" We are doing another security check on the venue of the wedding", they said unanimously. "Thanks for reminding me", I said sarcastically. " You don't look good", said Seb. "I couldn't sleep", I said distracted by.
" Why so much serious it's going to be a private affair", I said. "I think you don't have any idea on who all are going to be there man", said Seb. " What?", I asked them. "Well it's as intimate as it is going to be with hundred people and also musicians from outside. The only person she left was her ex", said Tony from the door. I groaned after hearing this.
" I think catering, decoration and music comes from outside so we have to maintain close watch or it could cause trouble. Only two days man that comes to the thought of bachelor party that we are going to organise tonight ", said Seb. " I don't want a bachelor party you guys", I said. They snorted in response.
"I came here to think you guys get out of my office", I growled at them. They all laughed and went outside. I phoned my Secretary and asked her to bring me some work. But she denied that his friends are suspending every bit of work till wedding. I inquired after Mike who was due to leave today. I welcomed this news he has caused enough trouble for us. Im done dealing with him trying to bait me using her. I didn't tell anything to Liam or anyone because I didn't want to worry them.
When the clock hit 10 I decided to send my guest on his merry way. I casually went to see him in his building. I mentally noted that once he leaves here this space is going to be empty so I will ask her to stay there till the wedding. He greeted me warmly and I think the guy wasn't as bad as he sounds, just someone who knows his job. " We will miss you Mike", I said casually. "You don't mean that", he said. It made me laugh. " I will if you invite me to your wedding", he said jokingly. "No, my wedding is going to be a very intimate ceremony", I said with a fake seriousness. " That's what I thought", said he with a smirk.
"I think you are making a mistake. If you are smart you won't let her go", he said to me. " Well i'm not a smart animal remember", I said brushing him off. He shrugged his shoulders with your loss expression and began walking outside. I followed him outside. "I hope your stay was pleasant", I said when his car came to pick him up. He nodded his head and said," we will contact you and we advise you to improve your relation with other tribes".
With that his car was speeding away and I watched a drone following the car. We should never underestimate a human. Though they are weak in physical strength, there was no way we could fight them with that technology. But so far we have had a cordial relationship with them and I hoped last.
You have a visitor alpha. I was informed by a security guard. I nodded my head and moved to my office. I was welcomed by none other than Greta. "Hello Alpha", she said. I hugged the old woman as a warm greeting. " I'm surprised to see you here with the wedding looming over", I told her. "Im worried about my granddaughter alpha", she said.
" I don't understand", I said. "She is worried that you have deep feelings for your mate and may back out of the wedding", she said sadly. I was word bound. I regained my speech and said," that's not true Greta, she is going to be a wife in two days and I have committed myself to her".
She drew a breath she was holding and let a few tears slip out. "I encouraged her to leave her mate to marry you and become luna. She didn't want to at first but I gave her those hopes and dreams. I don't think she will survive if she doesn't get married to you", she said quietly.
" Don't worry about anything Greta", I assured her. I called out the security in her presence."Ask my mate to move out of my building to her guest house", I ordered him. Greta smiled in relief. "I will see you at the wedding then Greta", I told her. She bowed her head and left. I was dejected and sat down on my chair.
