Fighting for Dominance

Chapter 24~ "You hate me?"

                           Katherine's POV:

After Kareem had left, I tried to roll back over and sleep just a tad longer. But I couldn't because my mind was racing in wonder of what all the man had to say. Honestly, still don't trust him. Hell I hardly know him, and yet my stupid wolf had sex with his wolf. It is what it is, can't change what happened.

 She tried to talk to me, I was just too pissed at her to listen. I told her she could apologize all she wanted, it still doesn't change the fact that I was going to seduce him. Instead, she took that from me. Yes, I'm jealous of my own fucking wolf.

 To be quite frank, I don't want any of this. I don't want a wolf, nor do I want a mate. I just want my old life back, granted it was fucking boring and lonely. But it was still my life, one I didn't have to share with anyone. The Universe apparently had a different route planned for me. Like being drawn to this fucking Godly man walking in before me with the food I'd asked for.

 " Mmm… Smells delicious,” I teased as I held my hands out doing the gimme gimme gesture. He handed over the plate of French toast that I'd ask for along with a large TO-GO cup of coffee. “ I made it the way that I hoped you'd like it. Three cream and two sugars, extra strong" he spoke as he looked at me waiting for me taste for my approval.

I didn't need to taste the coffee, to know that he was right on point with how I enjoyed my coffee. Question is: How did he know? But, I sipped it cautiously and nodded my head in approval without asking. There was a brief sparkle look in his eyes afterwards.
 
 “ Where's the hazelnut spread?” I asked him. He ran a hand through his long hair pushing back a few strands that had fallen out of his ponytail and sighed.” No one here has heard of this hazelnut spread, I'm sorry. I have my Beta Sov out and about searching nearby stores for some.”

 Instead of being a bitch about it, I just told him okay and dug Into my French toast while under his staring eyes. When I finished I set the plate aside, and told him thank you. I sipped more on my coffee as I awaited for him to begin talking, now that I was through eating breakfast.

 “You are new to the Wolf world. Your wolf is basically still a pup, she's immature and acts without thinking. I get that she has been locked up inside you. But with my help, I'd like to train you and her properly. There's so much of this world, that you do not know of. We have rules we must abide by in order to keep our packs safe. There are hundreds of different packs, and territory boundaries in place for many reasons. Not all wolves are bad, and not all of our packs are on the same page. But there are some bad wolves, who wouldn't think twice before beheading you, or worse things like torturing you for as long as you lived. Take what happened with your family as an example. Then men wanted power, strength, and blood. They wiped out your entire pack. Point is, I want to show you who you're meant to be. Train you to be stronger not only with yourself but with your wolf. Yesterday right before you and your wolf bit me on the ass, I had just killed a rouge wolf. I wasn't certain if there were more lurking around or not. You could have been killed by one of them or taken off because you refused to obey direct orders and stay hidden. There's a time and place for the cute playfulness, which I'd like to request those things to stay behind closed doors. More precise, I'd prefer you save those things for me, when we're in our room” he spoke.

 All I could do was fight back tears, he was right and had a point. I know nothing of who I am or this world. I've been careless and plain stupid. The mention of my parents and my pack, there's so much I want to know. What did they look like, their names etc. etc? I'll never know if I keep behaving like a child. I can feel sympathy coming from him, or maybe it's me wanting sympathy for some unknown reason.

 " I just want to make sense of all of this Kareem. I feel like I'm lost in some strange dream, that I can't wake from. I have no control of how it plays out. When I attempt to take control, everything goes to shit.” I sobbed out.

   He came beside me and wrapped me in his arms as I cried into him. The warmth from his embrace was enough to help ease some of my emotions, but it didn't make them go completely away. It's so strange how he's able to affect me this much with just his touch.

  I looked up at him and asked," how come your touch does different things to me?” Worry flashed across his face as he swallowed before asking what I had meant. " I don't know you, yet I feel like I've known you my whole life. When you're away, I feel so empty and hating you..... Wait, oh my God… Kareem no…no… It's not….” I tried to finish explaining, but his eyes flickered red as he let go of me, and stormed off.

 Just as fast as he stormed off, he came rushing back into the room. “ So… You fucking hate me?” He asked, and I could tell that I had hit a raw nerve. There was pain laced with his question, I felt it without having to see it on his face or to hear it in his tone. My stupid ass just keeps fucking shit up, so typical of me.  Only thing I could choke out were mumbles.
