Chapter 3
Darkness wrapped everything in its black cover. Milan was standing in the shower room all naked. She glanced at the white silk frock placed on one side and frowned.
" You don't seem to like the dress," Rawin voice prompted her to cover herself placing one hand at the top and one down.
" How dare you!" she shouted.
" How dare me? You were desiring for me all along and you say how dare me!" he removed his gown revealing his sturdy muscles and pushed her against the wall , " Well I feel the same, you are pretty gorgeous" his hushed voice made her breath faster and she looked at him.
" Will your Alpha know about everything that will happen tonight," he whispered.
" We are not fated," she responded with a hushed voice.
" Then he would have to lay you on his bed to know that you have been devoured."
Rage surged through her chest but a touch of his lips on her made her feel burning sensation. He looked at her and pushed his body against her that his thighs pressed against hers.
" You are not resisting?"
" Aren't you talking too much in the middle of…." She stopped talking.
" In the middle of?"
She stared at his lips. His chest pressed against hers and water from her hairs dripped at him. He grabbed the white dress and wrapped it around her.
Then, with a gentle yet possessive motion, he lifted her into his arms, cradling her against his chest. He walked to her bedroom, his strides long and purposeful, his eyes never leaving hers. The world around them melted away, leaving only the two of them, suspended in a sea of anticipation.
He set her down in front of the bed, his hands lingering on her waist. With a slow, deliberate movement, he pulled the torn dress away from her body, letting it fall to the floor in a soft rustle. His eyes roamed over her, drinking in the sight of her exposed skin.
His arms wrapped around her, pulling her close as his body pressed against hers. She felt the heat emanating from him, the tension in his muscles, and the soft brush of his lips against hers. Her breathing quickened, and she felt herself losing control over her body.
In a desperate bid to anchor herself, she clutched onto the bedsheet with one hand and grabbed his neck with the other. His legs wrapped around hers, holding her in place as he deepened the kiss. She wrapped both her hands around his shoulders, pulling him closer as their bodies entwined.
Outside, the flowers in the garden began to bloom, their deep colors unfolding like a canvas in the moonlight. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the sound of crickets provided a soothing background hum. The world was awakening, and so were they.
Her head was placed on the cushion and her gaze traced every act of Rawin while he got dressed up.
He placed himself next to her, " Should we go for a second round? You are still burning with desire," he passed his fingers from her hairs.
"It's fascinating," she placed her head near to his chest.
" what's so fascinating?"
" I feel the same as I felt when I was with Wahan. I want to push you away but can't . I can't figure it out. How can I become prey to my own emotions?" she closed her eyes.
" Who is Wahan?"
" Never Mind," she replied, her voice quite.
He stood up, " Well you figure this out by yourself. I need to head back to my chambers." He walked away nonchalantly.
The Next morning she was escorted back to the border by the body guard and didn't get to see Rawin. At a little distance to the border her pack was waiting for her return.
Her horse galloped through the muddy ground and approached the pack. She jumped down and walked towards them confidently.
" We knew our Luna Milan will do it," a werewolf shouted in happiness.
" Yeah Milan, you did it!" her mother Silan gave her a warm hug. " You have smell of Katarhan's on you," she commented.
" It's because I trained them all day," she replied taking a glance at Mirab her fiance and Alpha of the pack who glared at her with madness.
" How is elder doing?" Milan asked.
" It's alright. He can hold on, don't worry," her mother pated her shoulder, " Let's head back first.
" Sure," she replied and hooped the horse back. She took another glimpse of Alpha Mirab frowned eyebrows with a stiff expression on his face. She followed the Alpha's horse nearby and her pack followed their footsteps.
" Follow me to my room," Alpha Mirab said as soon as they got off from the horses.
She handed her horse rop to a werewolf and followed him. His shoulders brushed against hers as he walked to the door she just entered and locked the door.
" Are you sure you just gave them martial arts lessons? Haven't you traded your body for the deal?" he growled.
She closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, " Mirab! You are crossing the line."
He grabbed her long black hairs and pulled her closer that prompted her to hold his hand in her hairs out of pain, " You are my Luna , I'm not crossing the line, rather I'm being reasonable."
" Then you shouldn't have sent me"
He pushed her away and turned his back to her, " I was against the idea but all of the elders wanted you to go."
" That was because you refused to go by yourself"
He turned around to look at her, " And why do an Alpha needs to put his life in danger by entering the tigers den?"
" For it's pack an Alpha should do everything and as a Luna I will do any possible thing to protect my pack," Her voice echoed with determination.
" You need to learn how to protect yourself," he glanced at her body, " Being like this could make you a victim too." He walked out leaving her froze as a scene of intimation with Rawin played in her head. She looked at her trembling hands and took a deep breath.
