A Mate Out of Murder: The Realms of Eldon Book 1
23 parts Ongoing Mature"So you know my name. It doesn't change the fact that I am leaving your territory, so I am no longer your concern," she snapped, letting a slight growl escape with her words.
"Not if I say otherwise," Zeke's tone shifted. Selene began to feel the urge to submit, which wasn't something she'd felt often as an alpha heiress back home. She resisted the pull, even though her wolf internally chided her to give in. Selene had never before felt the desire to separate her human and wolf souls from one another, but she sure felt it now. A slight ache began at the base of her neck and began creeping upwards, her body trying to force her head to bow in spite of her stubborn mind.
"Stop doing that," she hissed at him.
He laughed. "Stop what? Being an Alpha? Why, are you going to challenge me for it," he smirked.
"Don't tempt me. If you know who I am, you should know Corben named me his successor."
"An interesting tidbit, to be sure. But given the state I found you in, princess, I don't think you'd present much of a challenge, to be honest." He raised his arms from his sides, palms up, as if welcoming her to strike first. "But by all means, have at it."
Selene was tempted to launch herself at him. Instead, with the last ounce of her willpower, she spun on her heels and took off into the darkness of the forest behind her.
