Alpha Sarvan

Chapter 12

It was true that I found something to sleep in but will I find the peace with a big bad angry wolf at my doorstep... probably not.

Ignoring my mate's threats, I wandered into the walk-in closet shopping for something that might fit me, but in vain. So, I settled on a baggy black T-shirt that was long enough to cover my undies since no shorts chose to stay hanged on my tiny waist.

'Since I'm not feeling sleepy, I might as well take a long calming bath', I thought to myself.

Sarvan's retreating footsteps calmed my nerves and I headed towards the gigantic bathroom that matched the room's dark theme.

Filling the bathtub with bubbles, I stripped and soaked myself sighing at the relaxing effect of the warm water.

Everything smelled like him. I used his shampoo to give myself a spa-worthy scalp massage easing all the muscle tension from this hectic day.

Drying myself, I put on his black oversized bathrobe and looked at myself in the mirror... I looked healthier; my cheekbones were more defined with a pinkish tint to them, my lips were fuller and poutier.

I think I had to thank Snow for that.

I opened the bathroom's door just to shut it again as quickly as possible.

'What in the hell was he doing sitting on his bed looking gorgeous?!'

"Little mate, come out now... one more door won't be an issue. That stunt you pulled earlier isn't going without punishment."

By the grave tone of his voice I could tell it was Xavier taking control. My raging heart was making so much noise that I was unable to concentrate.

'Shit!'

'Snow... SNOW!' That bitch! She was blocking me, probably laughing at my despair.

"You can choose to stay in the bathroom for as long as you want but know that you're trapped little mate, you're just delaying the inevitable."

'You're a warrior Lili-Mae thoughen up,  you can't go all mushy for that god-like irresistible man... AGH!! stupid brain, stupid mate bond!'

I puffed out my chest, steadying my heartbeat (or at least I tried) and stepped into the bedroom ignoring the elephant in the room, or in this case, the wolf in the room.

He was sitting shirtless on the far end of the bed with a smirk plastered on his face.

'Well, game on Alpha!'

I walked to his changing into the shirt I picked out earlier disregarding my underwear. *wink*

"I think I'll just sleep here since there's no such thing as privacy in this house." I said going to lie down on the left side of the bed. I used the extra pillows to build a wall and closed my eyes willing myself to forget about the fuming alpha starring daggers at me.

My breath hitched when I felt the bed dip behind me a few moments later.

'Don't turn around! You're sleeping, stay calm.'

"I know you're not sleeping, but if you 'really' are, I might as well enjoy a good night sleep with you in my arms."

I didn't dare move, I tried to fool him into thinking I was asleep, maybe then he'll get bored. Afterall, a wolf craved a good chase and I was not going to give him what he wanted.

Suddenly, I was yanked backed into his arms, he was now spooning me, the pillows long gone. I instantly relaxed enjoying the warmth and the comforting tingles. I wiggled a bit going back deeper into his chest.

He growled lowly in my ear startling me: "Stop moving little mate, I have too little self control right now."

I gulped loudly going still. Maybe going commando wasn't the brightest of my ideas afterall. There was no way now around this situation I'd put myself in. I had to sleep through... that was my only escape.

Let me tell you something, it is the hardest task ever to fall asleep while having a sexy man's hot breath on your neck and his fingers drawing patterns on your thigh's exposed skin.

I sat up abruptly nearly knocking Sarvan's head off with my elbow.

"Ouch! What the hell..." he protested.

"I can't do this, I can't pretend that I'm okay with all of this and just sleep!" I exclaimed heaving, trying to catch my breath.

He chuckled.

I looked at him dumbfounded.

"You... you ass!!" I threw a pillow at him that he dodged off effortlessly. He laughed even harder. It was the first time that I saw him smiling even yet laughing. I didn't take my time to enjoy this moment since I was seeing red. I launched myself at Sarvan hitting him with the pillows but soon I was out of ammo and I came to realise the compromising position I was in; I was straddling Sarvan. I tried to get up to only make it worse. I was now sitting on something hard, something I didn't want my brain to explain it for me. I looked down to meet those green eyes, clouded with lust, already boring into mine.

"Um..." I tried getting up failing due Sarvan's big hands pinning me down.

"Don't move Mae!!"

"But..." I stammered turning red not finding any words to say. Sarvan sat up with me still on his lap and brushed my lower lip with his thumb.

I was a melting mess with my core pulsing at each heartbeat. If I didn't get up soon, I'll be leaving a mess on Alpha's sweatpants.

"Sarvan... please..." I didn't know what exactly I was asking for, but this tension was too much for me.

"Mae... look me in the eyes! I'll let you go now and I'll sleep on the couch for tonight. I don't want to rush our mating... I want to get to know you, know every curve of your body, every secret of your soul... I would have liked to sleep with you in my arms tonight but you're a little teasing vixen that I can't seem to keep my hands off of her."

I yelped when he lifted me placing me on the bed and went to the couch.

Suddenly, all I felt was emptiness. Every cell in my body yearned for his touch, but he was right.

I hugged his pillow founding comfort in his smell and soon sleep overtook me.
