suprise

Hearing his voice yet again and the sarcasm in his words, I felt something bitter choke on my throat.
Turning around slowly, I managed a smile, one that he didn't get to see because of the mask that covered my face.
“Hello there Alpha Jordan, what a surprise to see you following behind me? What? Does your mate know that you are here following behind another woman?” I snickered, not bothering to hide the disdain in my words.
Jordan didn't seem bothered by my words. On the contrary, he just gave me a smile, one that would have gotten me wet down there if it was in the past. It was the kind of smile I yearned for in the past but only received hateful glares.
Too bad, I was no longer the stupid Kiran who would grovel under his feet just to get his attention.
Jordan started walking towards me, a sly smile on his lips.
“ God, I missed you Raven.” He murmured when he stood before me, his hands outstretched to touch my face.
I took a step back to avoid his touch, a glare fixed on his face.
“What do you think you are doing? Don't you dare touch me you bastard.” I warned with clenched teeth.
The nerve of the guy touching me after all the pain he caused me? Did he really think I'll allow him to, much less enjoy his touch?
But I can't deny that moment of excitement my wolf felt when his hand almost touched me.
Stupid mating bond.
I swear I saw a flicker of sadness flash through his eyes before it disappeared like it never existed.
“I know you want me to touch you Kiran. Isn't that what you've always wanted? For me to touch and possess you?” Jordan asked with a smile that screamed pride.
Looking at him acting all haughty only made me feel disgusted.
“ Don't be so full of yourself Jordan. Touch me? Do you think I'm lacking in men to touch me?” I snorted.
The next thing I knew, Jordan pushed me against the window, his breath fanning my neck.
His hands found my waist and I had to stop the moan that threatened to tear through my lips.
My wolf purred in delight.
Stupid horny wolf, I cursed inwardly.
“ Don't deny what you feel for me Raven.You know that you want me just as much as I want you.” Jordan murmured into my ears.
“ Let go of her!” A voice sounded from behind Jordan. My eyes peered from his neck, coming into contact with the most mesmerising blue orbs I have ever seen.
“ Didn't you hear what I just said? Let her go!” He thundered, this time closing in on us.
Jordan released his hold on me before turning to face the man.
“This is between my mate and I, why are you snooping your nose in our affairs?” Jordan questioned.
I didn't know if Jordan was stupid or just trying to be stupid.
If my guess was right, the man before us was none other than the rumoured ruthless king. Rumour has it that he became the king after killing all his brothers.
He is most feared and nobody dares cross him and lives to tell the tale.
“Your mate? How dare you call my woman your mate?” The man growled, his eyes flickering between red and black.
Lycans are known to be aggressive, especially when they are interested in something or when their mate is involved.
The next thing I saw was Jordan laying ten feet away from where we stood as he groaned in pain.
The man then turned around and gave me a smile, one that seemed so dazzling that for a moment, I stood there, stupefied.
“ Raven, right?” He asked and I nodded.
“ I'm Norman, your future mate and husband. It's nice to meet you, my sunshine.” He said, taking my hand and kissing the back of it.
He then leaned closer, “ I would love to be given the pleasure to unmask your face and your heart too.” He whispered flirtatiously.
I swallowed hard. Why did those words turn me on? I could already imagine his sinful hands trailing my body, exploring every crook and neck.
After giving me another smile, he turned around and left.
“ So you are f*****g that asshole of all men? Are you so desperate?” Jordan's bitter voice sounded, making me roll my eyes.
He sounded bitter and probably that's what he was feeling inward.
“ You are the only asshole I know. Desperate? Desperation can be defined when a woman simps for a man like you.” I spat, giving him one last dirty look before walking away.
I wasn't going to sit by and listen to him abuse and humiliate me. I am not the naive Raven from years back.

“ I can't believe you just did that. This is his pack after all. Ain't you afraid he will try to get back at you?” My beta, Leo asked but I could still detect the amusement in his words.
“ She is MINE. I won't let anyone harbour any designs about her.” I replied.
That bastard. He thought he could try to hit on my mate? He must brave himself because I'll make him regret ever knowing her.
Today I just kicked him, who knows what might happen to him tomorrow?
“ Are you forgetting that the two have a history together?” Leo reminded me, making me clench my fists.
“ He rejected her, humiliated her and even chased her away. He does not have the right to come even a metre close to her.”
After finding out that Raven was the mate I waited for all those years, I did a background check. Who would have thought that so many mysteries and conspiracies would be connected to her identity.
“ You do know that his intentions of approaching her ain't sincere. I can't believe he is willing to use her just to get more power.” Leo said, shaking his head.
“ Power makes people mad. Don't you hear what others say about me? I killed my family in cold blood just to be where I am right now.” I replied.
Compared to what the bastard was planning to do, my story was even more sick.
“ We both know what happened.” Leo replied and I shrugged.
What we know isn't what others know. To the world, I am that unfeeling and merciless monster who doesn't deserve to live.
“ What do you plan to do now?" Tonight is when they plan to carry out their plot.” Leo asked and I smiled.
“ I'm going to accompany my mate for a walk. You can take care of the rest.” I replied.
