Alphas Choice

T E N

I stood outside his office door with the large tray in my hands, I wasn't able to knock without putting the tray down, and I knew he would be able to hear me through the door.

"Could you come open the door please?" I asked quietly.

I could hear him get up from his chair and walk over to the door. His scent was overpowering the delicious smell of the food in front of me, my head was swimming, and I had butterflies. My wolf was begging to be allowed to come up, but I knew what would happen, so I tried to keep in control.

He opened the door and stepped back as I walked in. He closed and then locked the door behind me. Oh no, why did I think this was a good idea, I was just trying to help out the staff... I set the tray on the edge of his desk and turned to face him.

"Would you like orange or apple juice?"

"Orange."

"Perfect, would you like to sit at your desk and eat or over at the table?" I asked, pointing to a table near the couch he had along the back windows.

"The table."

I picked up his large plate and utensils and carried it over, then went back for the juice and coffee. I walked back to the tray I had set down, picked it up, and tried walking towards the door, but he stepped in my way.

"Where are you going?" he stared down at me, his arms crossed the muscles straining in his arms and chest.

I looked up at him.

"I'm going to eat in my room, I was told I should get dressed, and I would like to do that before everyone is up for breakfast."

"You will eat with me."

He grabbed my plate and fork off the tray and carried it over to the table, and placed it down next to his. He stood in front of his chair, waiting for me to come over. I honestly didn't feel like arguing over where I was going to eat my food, I set the tray back on his desk and grabbed my coffee and juice, and went to join him. He sat down once I did.

He dug right in, I grabbed my coffee and decided to sit back and be the watcher this time. I studied him as he ate, he was quite tall but he was also very big. His shoulders were wide and strong, the long sleeve shirt he had on was straining on his arms and chest, I could see the muscles moving beneath the shirt every time he lifted his hand to his mouth. My eyes wandered down his chest, I could almost count his abs as they could be seen through the fabric. I took another sip of my coffee and looked up at his face. He had a strong jawline, the muscles clenching as he chewed, he swallowed, and I could see it slide down his throat. He didn't raise his hand to take another bite.

I looked at his plate to see that it was empty. Was he that fast or have I been staring at him that long...I wasn't sure the answer. I peeked up at his face again and saw him looking at me with a wicked grin, but then I saw his eyes were almost all black. His wolf was coming out, and he seemed to be as much trouble as the Alpha himself.

"Do you like what you see, little Mate?" He smirked, "You can stare all you like with those pretty eyes of yours, but what did I say about biting that lip?"

Oh no, I lifted my coffee up to my mouth and looked down using my hair to help hide my face. I heard him chuckle darkly.

"You can't hide from me. How about I give you two options? Options are always nice." He purred and cocked his head, "Aren't they?"

Was he teasing me?

"Options for what?" I mumbled

"You should know that I tend to get what I want. It will serve you well to learn that. Quickly. Should you want to stay here. For now, I will accept that you don't want to have sex with me," I went red at that remark. Where is this conversation going? "But I will make you a promise, you will be begging for it with those pretty lips of yours, and I will graciously oblige your request." He put his hand over his chest and gave a small bow with a smirk on his face. "And now your options for rousing my wolf, he is a bother to deal with sometimes, and you seem to rile him up. Option number one, I'm going to bite that lip again to see if we can't break that habit of yours or option number two is you come sit in my lap and I'll help you eat your breakfast, it seems you haven't even taken one bite."
