Check Mate

Chapter ten

Warning: more heavy breathing and some drooling

Your touch on my skin,
the way you feel.
You make me smile,
this seems unreal.

Your kiss to my lips,
you give me chills.
Your hands on my back,
give me a thrill.

I kiss you slowly,
your embrace stays warm.
Your hands slide up,
my shirt that's torn.

They rest on my back,
feeling my skin.
My hands in your hair,
how long it's been...

I look up at you,
deep into your eyes.
Up at a man,
wish he was mine.

The familar touch,
the warm embrace.
Makes me tremble,
my heart ache.

I open my eyes,
look up above.
Just a dream,
my heart wishes of.

Sitting on my lips,
I can still feel that kiss.
You're everything I want,
and everything I miss.

Asher's perspective

Staring straight into my competitor's eye, the question of his rung out. I cleared my throat, swiftly looking into Spring's grey eyes before placing my view back to the man behind her.

"Mr. Landson, what a surprise." I stood up adjusting my ring on my finger, showing him I was still the one with the upper hand. The ring signified my business and the dominant power that I controlled.

He eyed my ring looking up I watched his eyes, the only aspect of his true identity. The only way my mate was what she was, making everything become clear. I could smell him now, making me cringe with disgust.

We stood silently with Spring and her mother watching between us confused. "I want you two to go take a walk out back." hearing Mr. Landson speak to his family that had managed to include my mate. My wolf held back a protest, wanting Spring as close to me as possible but not wanting to cause a scene.

Spring's eyes landed on mine questionably before she turned with her mother towards the back door. The click of the door made the insurance that they could not hear the two of us. Watching Mr. Landson, I smiled with a wide grin while he rolled up his cuffs on his shirt in a business fashion.

"I do believe I asked you a question." he stated, watching me closely. I watched his movements calmly while coming up with a believable lie. I could not just simply state out that his daughter was my mate. He would never allow her to see me but on the other hand he could not separate the two of us, for I was an alpha.

"Mr. Tipton, I saw the way you looked at my daughter." he disclosed the first question getting at something else. His dark blue eyes, the very opposite shade from Spring's, pierced back into mine.

"You never told me you had a daughter." I stated watching him curl his fist before darting my eyes back up to meet his from across the table. "She's beautiful just like her human mother." I added the last part, knowing I hit a nerve. He stood still as anger boiled inside of him "who do you think you are, to come into my house? My property? To lay eyes on my daughter?" he asked angrily.

"I see that your wife does not know what you are...especially what your daughter is. My my. You left your pack to be with a human, so what the rumors tell me. And now you made a breed that is wanted from all over." I ignored his question once again noticing his eyes turn a shade darker.
