CHAPTER 3: GAMES OF SEDUCTION

Damian’s POV
“Running off somewhere, mate ?”, Melissa taunted with a cruel laugh following it.
I whimpered as she caged me between her arms with the bloody wall cutting off my route of escape from behind.
“No, Your Highness”, I calmly replied.
I was an Alpha and Alphas did not stutter or run away (which I totally did a while ago) from challenges or problems.
My mate was the problem of problems and after attempting to do the stupid thing of tucking my imaginary tail between my legs and run away, I decided to face the music while keeping some dignity (which no one believed I had) in me.
However, from the inside, I was anything but calm. There was a freaking tsunami of hysteria threatening to churn in my gut and wreck havoc in my bundle of panic struck nerves.
I could get sick over my mate any time now.
“Yes love sick”, my sappy wolf commented through the mindlink.
“Shut up, Leo”, I scolded the naughty Alpha wolf.
“Then why were you running away from me, omega ?”, she asked in a maliciously low voice with her rage driven eyes narrowed like slits.
Her liquor drunk breath wafted through my nostrils and it took everything in me to not flood her mouth with all kinds of mint and gum.
How could people even stand near it, when it smelt awful !
Surely, it tasted equally atrocious.
“I was going back to my quarters, princess. I had no intention from running away from you”, I smoothly replied back.
“Liar”, Leo chimed through the mindlink.
This annoying wolf.
Grrrrr.
“Why ? Won’t you kiss your mate good night or tuck her to bed ?”, she purred while baiting me into her trap, which I knew so well.
She had played similar games of seduction with other poor wolves crushing on her or suitors and it made me grimace every time I watched the heartbroken wolf trudge back his way, never to come back again.
Never had I thought that I would be at the receiving end of it.
How could someone be so cruel ?
You ask what the game was ?
This is what it was.
“I am sorry, your majesty but I really need to go back. I am just an omega who would not dare to even breathe the same air as you. Please excuse me”, I tried to get away but the brutal seductress simply smirked before pressing herself close to me and grinding her core to my traitorous one.
No, no, no !
Why was my body reacting to her ?
I could not let her know she had an effect on me !
While I tried to talk my member down, Melissa took the opportunity to pin up my arms in one hand against the wall, while she brushed her sinful, plump pink lips over mine teasingly.
If I kissed the princess myself, she could easily shout for help and get the royal guards to brutally torture me before letting me limp away with broken arms, ribs and legs, if they let me keep them, like other victims before me.
However, the trick was to never initiate any physical contact against a royal, unless they ordered you or touched you themselves but the first move was absolutely forbidden.
And hence, the state of my pursed lips and closed eyes.
I did not even want to watch my mate use her disgusting trick on me while I guarded my lips from following the path of treachery that my lower body was already leading and trumpeting up all the way.
“Open your eyes, omega !!”, the princess ordered and the seething anger that steamed out of her tone did not go unnoticed.
When I opened my eyes, I was shocked to see her deep, ocean blue eyes turn completely black.
This meant only one thing.
Her wolf was in full control and she was dead angry.
“And those fvcking lips”, the royal she wolf hissed.
I could not ignore the order of a royal but I could use a loophole.
Instead of facing her and giving in to the temptation of touching my mate, I turned away my face to the side.
However, this move only succeeded in igniting the sparks of fury in my mate and she lost all her sanity to the clouds above.
“Face me when I am talking to you”, she thundered before smashing her lips on mine and aggressively grinding against me.
She was drunk, not I. Her actions could be blamed on the alcohol in her system but what about me ?
Why was I kissing her back ?
Why was I responding to the harsh royal who did not want me in the first place ?
It was not like I had been ordered to respond back with greater fervour than her.
Then why was I the one, who was dominating the royal pair of softest lips that I had ever touched. Heck, those were the first pair of lips, I had ever touched but even then I knew they were softer than any cashmere or flower petal known in the world.
With tongues dueling, teeth clashing and lips moulding against each other, my mind suddenly turned blank as she made a meal out of my mouth.
However, the sound and feel of the sickening crack of the base of my skull, brought me back to the harsh reality that her lips never tattooed the sentiment of love on mine, like mine did on hers.
The powerful push and punch on my face were like a bucket of ice, waking me from the dreamy, love ridden land that I had wafted to stupidly, putting down all my defenses.
I was so, so, so stupid.
I whimpered as I fell down against the wall, definitely leaving a bloody trail down it before I was resting my entire weight against it while breathing heavily through my bloodied nose.
She ruined my first kiss !
“Awww did someone get hurt while kissing, Mr Kiss Virgin”, she laughed pitilessly. “It was your first time, wasn’t it ?”, she taunted through her laughs. “Ofcourse, it was”, she answered herself and cracked up laughing even more.
She had made a joke out of me.
As I looked at her with sorrow filled eyes, the princess doubled up in laughter even more before kicking me ruthlessly in the groin region with her heel and laughing her way silly out of the kitchen.
I felt no physical pain as I was used to such kind of abuse by other members and learnt to benumb my body against torture.
However, I never taught myself the language of a broken heart nor felt the need to do so earlier.
Oh Moon Goddess, how was I going to survive this agony ?
For the first time in my life, I cursed Aunt Selene for saving me from the pack m******e.
I did not want to live such a life.
She wanted to stay estranged from me, that was absolutely fine, but torturing me like this, was uncalled for !!
I never wronged her before, then why was I her personal punching bag now ?
Did she feel no remorse or slight love, scratch that, a bit of attraction because of the mate bond ?
Did she feel no pity for the orphan omega servant ?
Her mistreated mate ?
You made me so bitter, mate.
I still might love you but I never expected you to treat me like trash, just like you just did.
Now you watch out, mate.
Now you watch out !
