Chapter 22
Xavier’s pov 1 groaned after gulping down another glass of whiskey. When will I learn that it does nothing for me? Nothing to numb the pain of the past or the feelings I had for Aurora I snorted Feelings? I had no feelings for the girl. Just the bond. Nothing more I poured myself another glass while glaring down at the paperwork I should be going through. It was important, especially having to do with the wolf council. They weren’t too fond of me and the things I’ve done to get my vengeance o n the traitors. I groan when the glass overflows. Placing the bottle on the desk I brought the filled glass to my lips, aware that some fello n the paperwork I only got to taste the burning liquor on my lips before the door is burst open. My eyes fell on her and I stiffen. “I’m back Xavier,” Adrian purred as she struts in. “Did you miss me?” I slowly place the glass down and looked into blue eyes. Adrian was Samuel’s daughter but didn’t want to take the role of being Beta Instead, she was relentless on being Luna, my Luna. “Three days without your cock and I’m a mess,” She moans, working to remove the tiny straps of her flimsy top. Adrian warmed my bed more than once. We took pleasure in each other bodies knowing that we both were too fucked up to be gifted with a mate. But that was before… A flash of Aurora crept into my head. It was Reckon’s doing, he wanted to remind me that we do in fact have a mate now. Summoned or not, the girl in the room was my mate. With my mind foggy with Aurora, I’m quickly slammed back to reality when my hand is being guided to Adrian’s cunt. Before the sight of it would have me excited, not now. I wrenched away, burning a glare on her body that leaned on the desk. She had ridden up her skirt and didn’t have any panties on. It was her usual. Adrian looks at me confused and shifts closer. Her arousal was strong but it did nothing to me.
“Did you get the information I sent you for?” I question, needing to let her down without raising questions on why. I have never let her down before. Adrian not wanting to quit her advances, shifts even closer until her legs are caging mine. She bends over, her hands touching my hard cock through my jeans. My cock wasn’t hard for her, it was hard for the girl with the pink hair. That was the reason I had been drinking, I thought It would help with my arousal for Aurora. It did nothing, unfortunately. Nothing seemed to work now since she arrived. “Ohh, you’re so hard already big guy.” Adrian’s words are caught in her throat when I grab her wrists to stop her. I had already been fighting to stop myself from going back to Aurora’s room to take her. But Adrian is making this a little difficult. Reckon is getting furious with her touch. He doesn’t want her hands on us anymore. If I don’t stop her, Reckon will force his way to take full control and kill her. I didn’t want to kill my Beta’s daughter. “Stop,” I said hoarsely as Reckon fights to take control. I push Adrian off me, her bountiful breasts bouncing at the sudden push. “Xavie I marched out of the room, my mind on only one girl Aurora. I needed her now (Aurora’s pov ) Josie didn’t look pleased when she dropped off lunch and dinner for me. All the while I had been in this room for hours Alpha Xavier didn’t visit me the rest of the day It was as if he was avoiding me And I should be happy about that. But I found myself missing his amber eyes. I found myself craving his touch But with all these feclings also came the feeling of guilt The guilt for not trying harder to escape The guilt of not tryingt o find out if Cas was alright I mean. How am I supposed to know if she was? I can’t send crows like the witches do. Neither would
Alpha Xavier ever d o this favor for me. Why would hc? I was no onc to him but a captive he owns Oh Cas, I just really hope that you’re safe. I stared at the darkening sky. There was so little you can do in a room all alone. I had been sitting here for hours, slept a few too after finding out how tired I was after Alpha Xavie….. I shook my head I didn’t need to think about that. It was clear that he didn’t feel the same way. And honestly, I didn’t know exactly what I was feeling My mind and body were conflicted. I didn’t understand it. The sudden attraction that shouldn’t dcem normal. I was too infuriated with him in such little time, The way he spoke, he made it seem as though he knew what was going on. Yet he wouldn’t tell me, I sighed heavily and got off the bed and made my way across the room to the window. It was night already and I don’t think anyone will come and visit me anytime soon It was clearl upset Xavier. So I wouldn’t hold my breath for him to show up. But maybe that’s a good thing. Maybe it’s best if he leaves me alone. Maybe then I can finally think clearly and finally come up with a plan to escape. I looked down, opening the window. The cold air kiss my face. I had the chance to be free but ended up here. And even though Alpha Xavier hadn’t killed me right away, who says he wouldn’t later on? My pending death awaits me. But I didn’t want to die by his hand I pressed my lips together as I looked at the ground and draw in a shaky breath. I was far up. Really far up Imight not be able to make it if I try to escape from here…unless. I whip around to look at the bedding. The covers seemed long enough. But were they enough to have me safely on the ground? I couldn’t think too much about that safety first. I just needed to get out of here before I die by Xavier’s hand or worse, make him do exactly what I was craving. For him to take me like a man takes a woman. I could feel my checks flame by my thoughts and run towards the bed I needed to hurry up. This was my only chance. Igripped the cover and started tying them together. I even took the pillowcases even though they didn’t add much to the length. Better that than nothing ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
By the time I was done, let’s just say I was rethinking. There was no way that would be long enough or get me halfway. And I wasn’t so sure I tied the knot tightly enough. Ichewed as I contemplated. Did I really want to escape from this place and risk Alpha Xavier catching me? What if he tear off my limbs like he had done to the rogue woman? I touched my arm then my neck and winced. Maybe I shouldn’t do this Maybe it’ll get me more into trouble. Alpha Xavier did mention that his territory was heavily guarded I sighed in defeat, I suppose that was it, my escape plan had just been flushed down the drain. I couldn’t possibly escaj Alpha Xavier’s clutches. He was the most feared Alpha for a reason. But I also needed to keep my secret away from him. Which means I need to get far away from him as I possibly can. My head pound, not sure which route to go Escaping would get me killed if I’m caught. Finding out my secret would al get me killed. Both will end up with me dead. Igripped the ticed covers. I would break my legs even if I used it. I was too high up and it was still too short The door is suddenly thrust open My grip on the covers tightens as he walks in. His amber eyes fall to the covers in hand and then to the bed. His eyes flicker with red and my stomach tightens as my heart sped.” Aurora!” He roared and I dropped the covers quickly
