"Alright. Go ahead, my lady."

He stood up from the chair, then walked pass the bed to the closet in the other side of the room. I watched him as he searched through the closet.

"Now, where do I start... Oh right. WHO ARE YOU?? And, the last time I checked, I was in a motel room. So, what happened, where on Earth am I, why am I even in this room?? And kindly give me a reasonable explanation why I'm handcuffed to a bedpost! Oh speaking of them, could you take them off, like right now! I can't feel my arms anymore! Ow! Where the hell are my clothes, anyway!?

He didn't turn his back, but judging from the shaking of his shoulders, I figured he was laughing.

"Yeah, that answers everything. Thank you."

He then turned to face me. A smile plastered in his lips.

"I'm not sure I remember all your questions correctly. You might want to ask them one at a time, hun."

My stupid heart faltered again at the sound of him calling me 'hun.' Oh boy, it sounded so natural, like we were actually living together for years now. Well, I can get used to that endearment. I felt a warm feeling in my chest. And I can almost see my wolf do a back-flip with the thought.

He continued his search through the closet.

"Ok. Who are you?"

"My name's Matt. Alpha of the Blood Moon pack. And you happen to be in my territory- all the way from Debby's motel to where you are now", he answered casually.

My mouth flew open. No sh*t. My mate's an alpha!? As if on cue, the image of my former Alpha appeared in my mind. Alpha Kris was a dominant, manipulative, and very aggressive werewolf. Is Matt like him? Most probably, I thought, he's an Alpha wolf afterall. I suddenly felt like running away, but I was still restrained on the bed... I felt vulnerable and scared.

He grabbed a blue, long-sleeve henley shirt from the closet before facing me. He then looked at me with worried eyes. He might have smelled my fear.

"Do I scare you?"

He gently moved closer to the bed. I controlled myself from attempting to back away, there's no use anyway. He then walked to the side of the bed and sat beside me. I gasped when his hand brushed lightly to my thigh, it felt warm against my skin, sending thousands of invicible volts throughout my body. Damn. How can I fear this man, yet still want him close to me?

He searched through his pocket with his other hand, then reached out to my wrists. I heard a click, followed by another. I felt relieved when I was finally able to move my arms, though they're still a numb from being held up like that for a long time. I tried to sit but I struggled as I moved to reposition myself. Good thing Matt was there. He didn't shift his position as he supported my back with his one hand, while he lets me hold on the other, making him lean forward as he do this, so his face was dangerously close to mine. Our eyes locked. Damn those eyes... Dark and hypnotizing. I can't seem to turn away. His face started to move closer to mine. I gulped nervously but I knew there's no way I'll miss his kiss, if that's what he has in mind. He moved closer until our noses were touching, down to our lips...

Then the door flew open! I backed away from him. I felt like a teenager caught red-handed. A woman with short, brown hair, wearing a white, floral dress stood in the doorway.

"Son, I-!" She staired at my almost naked body while his son now stood beside the bed like it was nothing. I flushed. I noticed she was smiling at us. As I surveyed her form, I figured she must be around 50's, though she looked younger in that dress. And her vibrant smile made her look even younger.

So, she's his mother. No wonder he's good-looking, I thought. But, how come I don't smell any wolf scent from her?

"Mom, how many times do I have to remind you, knock FIRST before you enter?"

His mom just rolled her eyes at him. A grin formed in my lips. If she did that to Alpha Kris, he would've likely poked her eyeballs out. Maybe Matt's not like Alpha Kris... Hope filled my heart.

"I noticed you've been up here so long, I just have to watch out for Ana. You might try to do something silly to her again while she was unconscious!"

My jaw dropped as I turned my gaze at Matt who can't even look at me directly in the eyes. I changed my mind, maybe he IS like Alpha Kris! I clenched my jaw shut.

"Anyway, food's already served downstairs. I'm sure Ana's hungry." She smiled at me, then turned to Matt. "And don't worry, no one's joining us for lunch. I told the weres, I wanted to have a 'private lunch' with my son today." She winked at him before closing the door.

I grabbed the long sleeve henley he left on the bed. I didn't want to look at him, so I was looking down as I wore it. It was too big for me, it almost looked like a dress.

"I'll explain what my mother meant-"

"Right. Explain yourself, Matt. What was that 'silly' thing you did to me while I was sleeping, huh? Was that why I was naked?!" I didn't notice I was already shouting.

All the memories of my former pack flashed right before me. I was furious. He's no different than them! He doesn't respect me enough to care what I have to say before he did whatever it was he did while I was sleeping! The balls of this man!

He stepped closer to reach me but I backed away, and stood up on the other side of the bed as I embraced myself.

"It's not what you think", he tried to explain in a panicky voice. I smirked at him.

"Well, what do I think?", I asked sarcastically. He let out a deep breath. For a moment, he looked like he was in pain that I suddenly felt guilty about my outburst.

"When I got back here last night, after the round check over the territory, a-and I found you sleeping in my bed, there's just this feeling inside me that I just wanted to... c-claim you." He filled his lung before continuing. "I-I don't know how to explain everything to you, Ana. Truth is, I don't understand it either. All I know is I want you..."

Yeah, I don't understand it either... I thought. He didn't have to explain that to me, I know exactly how he feels because I feel it too.

"So, what exactly did you do?" I was just curious, really.

He looked at me, as if asking "You sure, you wanna know?" I raised my eyebrow at him.

"Well I t-tore your clothes off. They're in the trash now actually. And I k-kissed you and t-touched you, b-but my mother went up just in time, and she stopped me!"

My mouth flew open. And I didn't even wake up!? Wait...

Suddenly, memories of last night clouded my mind.

... His lips found mine, and we kissed for what seems like forever. Then, his kiss went down to my jaw, all the way down to my neck. I tilted my head to give him more access. A moan escaped from my lips as my body shivered in pleasure, and that made him lose his control. He stopped kissing me. I tried to reach for him. No... don't stop yet, I whispered. The next thing I knew, my clothes were being ripped off harshly. Then, I felt his callused hands against my bare skin. I felt so hot. Every part of me that he touched felt like being ablazed. Oh my, this feels so good... I don't ever want to wake up from this dream...

Sh*t! So, it wasn't a dream!?

My cheeks felt hot. Damn. That was embarassing!

"But you were responding to me. So, I t-thought..." He sighed. "Nevermind. Let's go downstairs now. I'm sure you're hungry. Shall we?" He offered me his hand.

My stomach growled. I'll deal with this later. 

"I'm starving!" I said as I walk past him to the door.

A small grin formed in my mate's lips.
