Alphas, Betas & Protectors

7. The Talk

Lorraine took a deep breath "Alpha... Gavin... What if I dont go out with you and I defy you in public. Will you hurt me?"

Gavin frowned "What do you mean? Are you planning to reject me and defy me?" His waves of powers were unleashed.

Lorraine quickly looked away and started shaking uncontrollably. But she was a beta wolf. She could keep it together. She bit her lip "Alpha... I am only speaking theoretically.... I have no intention of defying you or rejecting you."

Her shaking then gradually stopped as the alpha regsitered her words.

Gavin said "I dont think you should speak to me this way Lorraine. Dont ever tease me like this again. It provokes me to do something I might regeret. I dont take kindly to rejection and defiance. I love you Lorraine and I will give you time to get to know me. I am the alpha. You must respect me... To answer your question... If you make me angry, I will deal with you personally. You are mine. You belong to me. What I do to you if you hurt my feelings and reject me or defy me is not your concern. If you are not planning to reject and defy me then you have nothing to worry about Lorraine. Now look at me. Do you have further questions."

Lorraine said as she looked up "But what if I do displease you? What will you do... Will you hurt me?"

Gavin said "Enough... You have my love... But if you displease me or betray me there are consequences ... Lets say you really dont want to see that side of me... If you reject me or defy me I will see it as your betrayal to me as your alpha and I will take it personal."

Lorraine knew he would hurt her. He hadnt answered the question. It seemed like a confirmation that if she didnt do as he said he was going to hurt her. His eyes promised her actions.

Gavin said "So Lorraine... What made you ask the question?"

Lorraine said " For now... I want to go out with you..." She lied... She couldnt refuse him but she had to accept his courtship and that was the sole reason she was with him. She hated him. She breathed "I ask because I .... am not sure what happens in future. What if I dont like you and what if I defy you..."

Gavin unleashed his powers again making her shake. She looked away again. Gavin said "You have no idea. Do you? You dont know how much i love you. I need to prove it to you so you see how much you mean to me... Then you wont dare have such outrageous thoughts. Now I forbid you from thinking about this again. Now swear to me you wont think of betraying me. Ever."

Lorraine said as she was shaking "I... swear...." The shaking then stopped and she let out a deep breath. Tremors in her body had been so strong. He had been so mad at her.

Gavin said " Thats a good girl. You must be obedient. No more of these theoretical questions... Lets enjoy the ride and the scenery."

The rest of the ride was spent in silence as Gavin held her hand tightly.

They got to the restaurant where the dinner was held. It was a luxurious place and was owned by the alpha's family. Before they got off alpha gavin said " Remember what I said. No defiance in public. You wont like the consequences."

Lorraine knew that. She wasnt planning on defying him. She didnt want to cause trouble for her brother. She was sure if she displeased the alpha, it wasn't just going to be her, in danger. Her brother could also suffer too. She knew how the alpha worked. He went after families of the people who he didnt like. No one was safe from him. Not even his childhood best friend who happened to be Lucas.

Quite near the end of the dinner Lucas stood up "Gillian. I think I am going to go home."

Gillian frowned "You are leaving so soon."
