The Alpha King Is My Second Chance Mate novel Chapter 11

And with nothing else said, he reached down, taking her lips between his.

Quinn’s eyes widened in surprise, her lips unmoving as his moved greedily against hers. He pulled back, his already sharp eyes narrowed. “I’m sorry, this wasn’t how I wanted this to play out, but it’s hard for me to control myself.”

He sighed, the sound full of frustration and desperation. “If you’re not gonna push me away, Quinn, then at least kiss me back.”

He took her lips between his again, and Quinn didn’t know what choice to make. She was right, his lips were soft and moist and gentle, and the burst of sparks from the sudden contact had her falling right into his trap.

Her hand slowly reached for his black jacket, pulling him closer as her lips finally started to move in sync with his. She didn’t know why, but this felt like fate, his lips felt like they belonged against hers.

Heat pooled in the pit of her stomach as her reluctance dispersed into want; lust that she had once only carried for Jeovanni. But now this man had found his way around her brokenness, and he didn’t even do anything. His tongue ran along her bottom lip and Quinn instantly gave him access to the inside of her mouth.

His tongue was like a flame, licking and tantalizing her beyond reasoning, and that fire ran all the way to her core. He searched her mouth, every nook, every cranny for something it seemed he couldn’t even find, and he didn’t pull away, neither did she…it was someone else who pulled them apart.

Frightened, Quinn looked back at Jeovanni who sported a murderous gaze. “I’m sorry, I need to speak to my beta for a moment.”

He tried to pull her away, but Alpha Zayd grabbed at her hand, holding it tight. “I didn’t hear her approve of this…she is with me right now, wait until she’s ready to go with you.”

Jeo breathed out a breath of anger, turning towards Quinn. “Choose now, stay with him or come with me…”

“I-I want to~”

“Choose wisely, Quinn, for not doing your job as beta right, I have the right to kick you out of this pack.”

His words were a threat, Quinn knew it. Sighing, she looked up at alpha Zayd. “I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to go with him.”

His grip remained around her hand for a while longer before he reluctantly let go. “Okay.”

Every other word he said since night was calm and full of confidence except for this one…it was whispered lowly, cold and dead.

As Jeovanni pulled her through the crowd, Quinn kept her gaze on him…why did it feel like her heart was aching because of the distance that was now between them? Why did Quinn want to stay by his side…? Even if it was until this night ended.

When the door to the celebration house closed and Quinn could not see him anymore, her heart felt as though it was ripped out of her chest. What was happening? He wasn’t her mate, so why did she feel this way?
