The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary novel Chapter 94

Chapter 94
I did something out of my element. I did something I know the Moon Goddess will hate me more for. I did something that would surely lock our fates together but I did it with every intention of keeping
him.
I wanted this man with everything I had.
Was it just lust induced?
Possibly.
Would I regret it?
More than likely.

But would I deny it any more than I already did?
No.
I pull him tighter against me, my lips grazing his ear as ripples of pleasure ran down him. His large hands cupping my hips so tightly I know that bruises in the shape of his hands would be left there. I pressed my chest onto him. His breathing quickened, body taut with restraint as he stood wordlessly. His piercing dark eyes watching every little move I made. My hands held either side of his face, my thumbs soothingly running across his cheekbones while he stared down at me.
“You have my permission.”
I tell him quietly.
And the moment I said those four words, the darkness in his gaze lightened and dilated with his eyes. For a brief, fleeting second a smile almost breaks across his face but he drops his head to my shoulder before it could. His feelings of joy surfacing to my wolf as she yipped in his elation.
“I’m a selfish man, Selene. I don’t take to sharing. When I say I want you; I mean all of you. Mind, Body, Soul”
He lifts his head up, gently raising his hand to caress my cheek,
“-Heart.”
My chest tightened, my wolf sighing out as she stared at him dreamily. Tail slowly swishing from side to side as she sat on her hind legs. For a cold blooded killer, he sure had a way with words. He turned me around so that my back met his chest. His hand trailed down across my stomach to grip. onto the other side of my hip. I smiled, feeling his head rest on my shoulder.
“Does this go both ways?”
I ask breathlessly, trailing my hand to the nape of his neck. My fingers once more finding themselves tangling in his soft hair.
“Because frankly, I don’t share either.”
-I feel him smile and a rumble of soft laughter leaves his chest heaving up and down.
“If I had you, I’d have all I could ever want and need.”
Well.
That went straight between my legs.
“Then I’m glad we’re on the same page.”
I tell him, pulling away slightly so that I could look at him.
“Prepare yourself, my little wildflower. When I put my mind to something, I don’t stop until I get it. And if there’s one thing I’m sure of”
He tucks a strand of my hair behind my ear,
“-it’s that I have no intention of ever letting you go.”
I almost don’t hear him. The music comes to a stop and everyone begins to bow to their partners. Letting go of my hold on him, I take one last look at his chiseled face looking intently at me. The sigh of contentment almost passing through my lips at the pure bliss I felt just from feeling him this close. Dark eyes half lidded with his expression going soft, harrow down at me. All sorts of emotions swirling in his eyes but the most intense being his affection.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
I smile, meaning every single word, and stepped back from his hold a few steps backwards before turning. I leave him behind gazing at me with a growing lopsided grin. He didn’t say anything. He didn’t have to.
This wasn’t over.
It was far from it.
He knew that and I knew that.
My heels clicked against the marble with my head held high and my back straight as I strode over to Mailia and Noah. The prying gazes of the other wolves cutting into my skin but I don’t take notice of it. Ignorance was bliss when you have an ex-mate staring down at you like a hawk circling its prèy with his body emanating ferocious anger. Not to mention, a very smug looking Chancellor and pale-to-nearly-passing-out adoptive mother straining to keep herself up.
Meredith was definitely going to ask questions.
But for now, I settled with the task at hand.
Noah and Mailia stood at the buffet table, Noah hanging his arm loosely around Mailia’s waist. She had her arms across her chest, looking smug but Noah looked less than pleased. His usual chirpy atmosphere gone sour like the lemon slice on the rim of the cup he was holding. He was frowning, a slight wrinkle marring his forehead as he pouted at the floor. I rose a brow at the strangeness of his attitude and that’s when my attention drifted to the man beside him. It was Raizel’s Beta who I didn’t see walk in with him.
Tall, slightly smirking, emitting waves of playfulness with a messy mop of blonde hair on his head.
He bowed in acknowledgement when I reached them to which I nodded in his direction. His brown eyes shifted to Noah and for a split second, he grimaced with the pull of his upper lip before giving me his full attention. The look of distaste replaced with a genuine, warm smile.
