A/N: So just a warning, Killian starts out as the worlds biggest asshole in this book and you are going to want to punch him lol! Think, Killian before he became the puppy dog pirate he ended up being in the show. Anyways, enjoy! Let me know how you like it in the comments! 🖤

I blinked my eyes open and let out a soft groan at the dull ache in my head. I rolled my head to the side blinking my eyes until my vision cleared up. I sat up and stretched rubbing my back and shoulders, sleeping on this hardwood floor was not good to me. I looked around the room trying to get a feel for where I was, I couldn’t remember anything from last night. I stood up, and walked over to the table in the room, there was a glass decanter. I opened it and sniffed and scrunched up my nose.

Rum.

Besides the table in the room, there was a large bed with burgundy and black satin bedding. Whos room was I in? Whose house was I in?  It didn’t smell like home. I heard footsteps coming down the hallway and I froze.

The double doors to the room swung open and in sauntered a man, tall with dark messy hair, he wore a red shirt, and a black leather jacket over that and the tightest black jeans I’d ever seen a man wear. I sniffed discreetly, his scent was powerful..he was strong. Alpha strong.

“Well, look who is awake.” He said with a dark smirk and walked over to me, arrogantly.

Truthfully the way he moved when he walked was a slightly more coordinated Jack Sparrow, this man thought he was Gaia’s gift to women and with those looks..he may damn well have been.
No. Keep your guard up Amara..

I stood tall, as tall as my five foot two self could anyways. This man towered over me in height and his blue eyes didn’t just look at me, they looked into me. I scowled at him.

“What is with that sour face?” He scoffed, “I saved your life, perhaps some gratitude is in order.”

“I will show gratitude, perhaps when I am given your name, and my location.” I said firmly.

“Killian Jones, at your service.” He grinned and gave me a cocky bow. “You are in my home, specifically, in my room because as I am sure you are aware, mating season is near and well.. You are delectable looking little she-wolf and some of my boys get a little rambunctious..” He said and his eyes traveled my body from head to toe.

I rolled my eyes at him.

“Well, Killian, I do thank you for saving me from those hunters, however I would like to be getting home.”

“Home?” Killian laughed. “You’re looking at your new home, princess. You crossed into my territory. Consider yourself lucky I let you live.” He said and circled me.

My body tensed and my heartbeat quickened and by the look on his face he quite enjoyed that.

“Aye. I know who you are. Arthur's pup and I’m sure, he’s told you all about me.”

I couldn’t stop the low growl escaping my lips. If there was one thing I absolutely hated being referred to, it was pup.

“Only that you are an arrogant man who walks the earth as he’s Gaia’s greatest gift.” I snorted. “Now that I get a closer look, I’m not impressed.” I said narrowing my eyes at him.

Killian put his hand on his chest and pouted at me, mockingly.
“You wound me.” He said and stepped closer to me.

I backed away as his eyes darkened and soon I found myself backed in a corner with nowhere left to get away. My back hit the wall with a soft thud and Killian’s face was inches from mine.
