Morning star high

Chapter | 2

I jolted up right. I was in a queen size bed, the covers were black silk with gold rims. I brushed my fingers against the unusual feeling of the linen.

Where was I?

I shifted slightly trying to get off the bed when I found myself unable to do so. I lifted the bed sheet to find a slightly tanned but toned veiny arm. My eyes followed the arm to find who the person trapping me was.

What did they say his name was? Wrath?

His eyes were closed and he has a peaceful sleeping face compared to the feral snarl the other day. His lips partly open and soft snores could be heard if you listened closely. He was beautiful. My hand, as if moving on its own, reached out to touch his chocolate brown hair.

Just then the mans' eyes snapped opened, surprised I retracted my hand but I was unsuccessful as he grabbed my wrist. Pushing me over so that i was straddling his waist, I gasped. His hand traveled down the bridge of my back and lightly cupped my ass.

"Let me go!" I shouted struggling to get out the this giants grasp. He slapped my right cheek causing a "Yelp" out of me. "You giant bastard let me go!"

The man chuckled his eyes lighting up. Well shit that's a turn on. "Sweetheart you're just tiny"

I didn't say anything to that and just focused on trying to get out of the beast grasp. Just then I had a thought. "Wait! My lord wrath or whatever your name is, what are you?"

He cocked his head to the side like a puppy would do. "Be more specific small fry" I huffed at the name.

"Don't call me that and what kind of thing are you. I've already met Greed and he's a vampire and Lust is. Er- I don't actually know what Lust is" I finished off out loud.

"The dominant species obviously" he deadpanned.

I blinked.

He blinked.

"I'm a shifter" he said.

"Stay away from shifter territory you're an attractive woman you're basically going straight into the lion den"

"Oh, I was told to stay away from you guys" I muttered. Wrath grabbed my wrists and flipped me over so that he was on top of me.

"You stay by me do you understand that Winters?" He snarled. "Nothing will happen to you, don't you dare insult my subjects that way" he face was inches away from mine and I tried to make myself appear smaller than I already was.

I didn't have to worry too hard because we let me go and walked off to another room slamming the door behind him.
Before I could even process what happened he came back in a threw a pile of clothes in my face.

"Bathroom is straight down and the first left door, be ready in 15 any later and I'm kicking down the fucking door" he mumbled searching through a black draw pulling out a lighter.

I wasted no time getting ready after his little hissy fit earlier. Maybe that's why he's called wrath? It makes sense.

Coming out the shower I pulled my braids out of the hair tie and decided to put half up while leaving two braids at the front out. I looked at the clothes he gave me and found it was the same uniform that Greed was wearing but instead of red accent colours it was gold. I pulled on the trousers that, to my horror, were for men and struggled with the buttons due to them being on the wrong side. Finally after a bit of struggle I looked in the foggy mirror and groaned.

I looked strange, the uniform fit uncomfortably on my curves and I had to do the blazer up fully due to the black uniform shirt buttons by my chest holding on for dear life.
