The angel and her guardian alpha

You’re cute Belle

Belle’s POV

I quickly finished my drink in nervousness as I followed Sam into the closet.

The closet was dark but suddenly it became bright, Sam had put on the flash on his phone, I squinted.

“Relax Belle, I can hear your crazy heartbeats from over here. I won’t do anything you wouldn’t like with you.”

That’s the problem, I think I might want to do something I wouldn’t like, with him.

Dear lord!

I heard cheering outside and knew that the game had continued without us, someone would come and get us when the seven minutes is up.

I cleared my throat.

“So how do we pass away the seven minutes?”

Sam smiled mischievously.

“Well I could think of several ways on my part.”

I hit him lightly.

“Not funny.”

“Right.”

Another minute of awkward silence passed.

“Give me your phone.” He said suddenly.

“Why?” I asked him skeptically.

“We need to exchange numbers to plan our tutoring sessions.”

Oh, right. I forgot about that.

“Okay.” I replied and handed him my phone, he collected it and quickly dialed his number.

His own phone rang and he smiled, handing my phone back to me.

“There, now we can talk about our session tomorrow morning when you wake up.”

“Why tomorrow morning?”

“You are drunk Belle, you’ll pass out when you get home.”

“Oh.”

He chuckled, “You are so clueless sometimes aren’t you?”

I gave him a sheepish smile and shrugged.

I tried moving to stretch my limbs and stumbled almost falling down if not for Sam that immediately caught me and tried to steady me.

In that moment, our faces were so close that I could smell his fresh breath with a hint of mint.

My eyes flickered from his face to his lips and back to his face, I could see that he was doing the same thing.

He inched closer till our faces were almost touching and I gasped lightly, my eyes fluttered shut and I felt his lips on mine lightly, like a feather touch. Butterflies were singing hallelujah in my stomach as his hands grabbed my waist and hoisted me up, I wrapped my legs around his waist and waited for him to deepen the kiss.

He leaned in again to capture my lips but pulled away sharply and buried his face in my neck, I could tell he was laughing with the way his body was shaking.

He put me down and gave me a sheepish smile.

“Someone is calling for us, our time is up.”

“Oh.” Was all I could say, I was so engrossed with him that I had not heard anyone calling for us, I blushed furiously and thanked the heavens again for the color of my skin.

He gave me a crooked smile and caressed my cheeks with his left hand.

“You’re so cute Belle.” He said suddenly and left the closet first.

I followed after him and met him waiting for me outside the door of the closet.

He held my hand and led me back to our sitting position, pulling me back in between his legs but this time he wrapped his both hands around me and buried his face in my hair subtly so no one really noticed, Besides the room was dimly lit.

His hand had somehow found its way underneath my shirt and he kept drawing patterns on my stomach, each place he touched felt like fire. The butterflies had turned to a stampede of elephants.

We were really lost in our own bubble while the game continued and I had almost forgotten about Jason, the boy that occupied most of my dreams and fantasies.

“Dare.” I heard Jason’s voice and immediately piqued up.

“I dare you to kiss Belle.” Ruby dared and I frowned.

“What?” I muttered and felt Sam stiffen and his hands tightened around me, like possessively?

I could see Jason making his way over to me and my heart began racing, my palms suddenly became sweaty and my throat became dry.

“I think I need a drink Sam.” I mumbled.

He let me go and I stood up but it was too late, Jason had already reached my side.

He pulled me close to him and I felt his lips on mine, kissing me softly. I did not kiss him back.

Weird, after all these years of fantasizing about him, I felt nothing like I had felt when Sam and I shared our moment in the closet earlier.

Just as the kiss started, it ended and Jason gave me a lopsided smile which was cute but not like the smile that Sam usually gives me, the kind that gives me butterflies and make me look dumb in his presence.

Oh lord, I just shared a first kiss with my crush and all I’m thinking about is Sam!

Sam? I turned back and could not find him, so I dashed out of the room to go look for him.

I found him by the end of the stairs, going through his phone and walked up to him, tapping his shoulder.

He looked up at me and smiled softly.

“Sorry I needed some air.”

I raised an eyebrow at him and he smirked.

“I was also about to go make your drink for you.”

“Let’s go then.”

“No, I’ll go make it. Go back and ask Ruby if she is ready to go home.”

“We are leaving?” I asked confused.

“It’s almost midnight Belle.”

“Oh.” I couldn’t tell him that I’m not from a conventional family, that I don’t have a curfew.

I could leave home for days and my father would not even notice, he would be too drunk or passed out to notice.

He has been this way ever since my mother died and we had to move here.

“Okay, I’ll go get her.”

I ran back upstairs and got to Ruby.

“We are leaving now, are you ready to go?” I whispered into her ear as I found her and she shook her head no while giggling.

“Tell me, how was the kiss with Jason?”

I shrugged.

“You have to do better than that, no eruption of butterflies or what?” Ruby exclaimed and I deadpanned at her.

“We are going home, you’re drunk.”

“Honestly I’m fine, I have Jason here with me. He’s a good friend, he thinks you’re cute.”

I blushed at that and then frowned.

“How will you get home then?”

“He’ll drop me off, we will order an Uber to drop us off.”

“Alright then, stay safe. I’m going home, Sam is leaving already.”

“Why? Because I dared Jason to kiss you?”

“Why would you think that?”

Ruby sighed, “oh Belleza, you are so clueless sometimes.”

She turned and waved me goodnight.

I quickly grabbed my purse and rushed down the stairs.

I met Sam waiting for me in the same position, this time with a blue solo cup in his hand.

I took the drink and finished it in three big gulps immediately I got to him and threw the cup into a trash can I found.

Sam smiled at me and took my hand again, leading us out of the house.

“Ruby thinks you’re leaving early because she dared Jason to kiss me.” I said to him immediately we got out of the noisy house and were almost at the car.

“Why would she think that?” He mused.

“Same thing I asked her.”

We got to the car and he opened it, then he led me to the passenger door side.

“But what if she was not wrong? I mean, I really hated the sight of another guy’s lips on yours. You were supposed to only remember the feel of mine tonight and now you are probably a little too wasted to remember this tomorrow.”

“Remember what?” I barely finished asking before he swooped down on me and claimed my lips with his own.

He lifted me up easily like he had done earlier in the closet and I wrapped my legs around his waist. Then we were moving, he dropped me on the hood of his car without breaking the kiss, then he parted my legs and stood in between them. My hands were wrapped around his neck, one of my hand gripped his braids and tugged him closer to me.

He licked my lower lip and I gasped, taking the opportunity to plunge his tongue into my mouth.

He groaned in an animalistic way or so I thought but good lord, he tasted so so good, my head felt like it was spinning and then he groaned again in a feral way and broke the kiss, he tightened his hands on my sides and quickly released his hold, sighing softly and placing his forehead on mine.

“God Belle, I’ve wanted to do this for how long now.”

I frowned lightly, what does he mean?

He chuckled as he saw my expression and pecked my lips, then my cheeks and my forehead and back to my lips.

“God you’re so beautiful Belle,” he whispered softly.

“Now let’s get you home before I lose my self control with you now. It would be a bad record for me in your books.” He chuckled and I could only blush, the kiss had left me tongue tied.

Sam carried me and opened the passenger door, gently placed me on the seat and buckled my seatbelt for me, then he closed the door and rounded the car to the driver’s seat.

As he turned on the ignition of his car and asked for my address punching it into his GPS, all I could think about, while touching my lips was.....

What the hell just happened?!

Sam’s POV

I held the steering wheel tightly and tried not to show my nervousness to this girl, I am supposed to behave as humanly as possible but this girl I am supposed to be protecting has her little way of trying to break the animal in me free.

The girl I’m supposed to be guiding and protecting, I’m getting all worked up and nervous about her just after our first personal interaction today.

I glanced sideways at her and met with her gaze on mine, she was intently looking at me.

“Were you jealous that Jason kissed me? Because it was barely a kiss.” She asked innocently.

“I wasn’t just jealous, I was mad also. He tends to take advantage of clueless girls.” I told her passively which is almost the truth.

Belle knows absolutely nothing about herself, she knows nothing about the powers she possessed and she knows nothing about why Jason had shown up to our school years ago to enroll as a student.

The same reason I’d also come to this town but for a different purpose, while I was here to protect her, Jason was here to use her.

All of these she was supposed to not know, till she starts coming to the consciousness of her powers.

“Well, you don’t know that for real. You are the reckless basketball captain while he is the sweetest football captain our school has ever had, no record for trouble unlike you. So who is most likely to take advantage bad boy?” She asked cluelessly again and I bit back a laugh, merely just grinning.

She terribly had no idea that I am one of the last of the guardian werewolves pack, meant to protect special supernatural beings like her and Jason’s family or rather pack is responsible for the almost extinction of my own pack.

“I accept I’m the big bad guy Belle,” I told her with a smile, only glancing quickly at her to give a wink to add to the effect of it.

It is really important for me to keep my undercover, luckily until this year, Jason had not done anything stupid but it seems like we’re heading down the path now.

I pulled up into her driveway and she thanked me as she unbuckled her seatbelt.

I pulled her in and grazed her lips quickly and released her, I’m not supposed to be feeling this way for her.

“Goodnight Belle,” I called out softly as she got down from the car and waved awkwardly at me while walking up to her front door, going to meet her abusive father I already know of but cannot do anything about it because I still have to behave humanly till Belle is ready.

Belle, the little rare angel that was absolutely clueless of the kind of powers her tiny body contained.
