The Alpha Claimed Me Deeply by Demiah13

Chapter 35

35 Xavier’s pov: She was damn maddening. My eyes scanned over the words for what felt like the hundredth time I was sure it wasn’t that much but it sure as hell felt like it. I couldn’t force my mind to stay on my alpha duties. Something I should be laser focus on. But my thoughts always seem to stray toward her and I found myself wondering what she was doing in the room. She’s tormenting my mind. More than I’d like to admit. Suddenly an image of a naked Aurora creeps into my mind. The way the soap would lather her body…… I huff heavily, feeling irritation crawl in my body as I toss the paper away from me. ‘How am I supposed to focus if you keep sending me images of her naked Reckon?!’ I roared at my horny wolf. ‘I want her,’ Was the only response I got from him. He knew she was already tormenting my thoughts, he was hell-bent on making it worst so that I’d have no choice but to claim Aurora. “Alpha, “A feminine voice then a knock on the door sounded in the office. “Come in,” I grumble lowly knowing that the person behind the door will manage to hear me. The door creaks open almost unsurely before a familiar blonde haired middle age woman slowly enters the office. Her hands are on the door, firmly clutching it as if it were her shield. I frown at her fear but understood it. I didn’t take pleasure in knowing my own people fear me but knew it was a must if I were to remain at the top. She bows her head, her brown eyes dancing in worry and slight fear.” Pardon me Alpha if I disturbed you. I only came to tell you that I saw your sister and that strange girl with pink hair roaming the halls. Sorry if this may upset you but I followed them seeing as I’m not familiar with the strange girl. Your sister brought her to the library you have strictly warned our people to not enter “What!?” I roared, my claws jutting out of my fingers as I rise to my feet. My claws dig into the wooden desk as I felt anything other than rage at the moment. Lily knew I didn’t want anyone going inside that library, not after…. And to go with Aurora!? What the hell was she thinking bringing the girl who tormented my thoughts to a place that was a sacred space for our late father? Lily was trying my

patience which had run thin moments ago. Was she really that troublesome? “How long has it been since they entered the library?” I ground out. The middle aged she wolf eyes widen slightly in alarm as she watches anger transform on my face.” A-bout fif-teen minutes or m-ore al- pha,” She stuttered. The fear that emanated from her was troubling my nose

Gritting my teeth I walked around the desk and with rage clouding my vision I stormed out of the room. The blonde woman makes a startled noise in the back of her throat as I brushed past her. I could feel her stumble but I was too blinded by anger to even try to reach out and help hier Other wolves roaming around in the hallway scurried away or either squirmed to make themselves appear smaller. They fear me, especially when I was like this. As soon as the huge door reared into my sight, I stormed towards it angrily and thrust it open. My eyes quickly fall on two girls that irritated the fuck out of me. I try not to let Reckon allow me to get sucked into her beautiful eyes. She was too damn captivating for her own good. “Brother it was me who brought her here “Keep quiet Lily!” I snarled feeling annoyed that she was about to justify her actions that could’ve put her more into trouble. But of course, I expect nothing more from my sister than her defiance. She was just like our mother. Troublesome and rebellious in their own right. Those two were the exact copy. “Don’t you dare hurt her Xavier or I won’t forgive you. It was me who brought her here. She was bored staying in the room, it was my duty to show her that around here isn’t so bad with a brooding annoying Alpha like you.” I nearly flinched at her words. My chest suddenly felt heavy at the thought of ever hurting Aurora intentionally. But instead of admitting that out loud, i barked. “Your duty is to stay in your damn room Lily and not play host to a captive we’re not sure is an enemy!” I notice Aurora’s slight flinch and felt incredibly awful for causing the frown on her face. My fingers itch at my sides as I fought the urge to walk up to her and draw her in my arms. A frown like that didn’t deserve to settle on her pretty features, ‘You’re falling for her,’

Reckon snorted almost too happily. No I’m not,’ I denied as I rip my eyes off of her. “She’s not an enemy. And brother I think you of all people know that, don’t you?” Lily’s words nearly had my eyes bulging out of their sockets. It wasn’t the words exactly but the way she worded them out. As if she knew something. And I definitely wouldn’t put it pass her. That was another thing she and mother had in common. To be able to piece things together quickly. Intelligence. Their intelligence was shocking as well as irritating. 1 grow irritated, feeling completely annoyed that my younger sister pieced out everything so quickly. Turning to Aurora, 1 demand.” Go to my room Aurora and wait for me there.” Lily turns to face Aurora, her eyes deep with reassurance.” It will be fine Aurora,” Turning to face me, I grit my teeth when her arrogance at knowing my secret wads off of her i ni waves.” Hurting you would be the last thing on my brother’s mind. Isn’t that right brother? I swear if she wasn’t my sister, I’d already threw her out of the window for even trying to seem superior.” To the room Aurora!” A roar came out of my chest as she didn’t seem to be quick enough. I knew she was startled at the loudness of my voice but bit my tongue to stop myself from even thinking to apologize. This mate bond was giving me a headache. Aurora quickly walks over to me and brushes against me. The feel of her made me involuntarily suck in a sharp intake of air. I fist my hands at my side, forcing my gaze to stay o n my cocky sister as I heard Aurora’s fast footsteps. I pictured ways I’d punish her for even getting out of the room. I made it clear that she shouldn’t step foot out. Of course, the punishment wouldn’t be too severe… I ” Brother, you seem awfully annoyed.” Lily suddenly interrupts my thoughts, her tone drawly and with a hint of amusement. My kid sister was mocking me. What is new? I rolled my eyes, sending her an annoyed stare as I closed the door behind me. “You shouldn’t have brought her here Lily. Especially alone! We don’t know what she is – “But I think I do know what she is brother,” Lily cocks her head to a side and lifts her lip into a playful smile. I didn’t have time for games right now.

I took a menacing step forward but of course Lily only giggles, “What is she Lily?” There’s a warning in my tone, one I hope she could detect. But if she had, she didn’t give any indication that it affected her because she only smiles playfully. “She’s your mate, of course.” Winking she burst into giggles seconds later after she manages to stun me into silence for a while. I knew she was smart and could piece even the hardest of things together in a matter of seconds with keen eyes and with a furious working brain. But for her to piece something such a sthat even though it was clear werewolves have never been mated to any other creature than that of their own? I was beginning to think Lily had some kind of magical abilities or maybe just too nosey for her own good. 1 Reigning in my composure even though she had undoubtedly made my brain foggy, I warned. “You will not let this slip out of here, do you understand me?” Of course I knew that denying her claims about Aurora being my mate would only let her nosey 5 ft self pester me or go snooping into things she shouldn’t snoop into. She stands straight, her posture undeniable perfect with her hands plastered to her sides. I would’ve taken her seriously if it wasn’t for the gleamer of dusting amusement in her eyes. One stiff hand come to touch her forehead in a salute manner.” As you wish Sir Knight! I will not let any of this slip out of my mouth and let no one know that a small pink haired girl has m y brother’s balls in the palm of her hands.” I gritted my teeth. She was pushing me. Really pushing at my temper. “Lily!” I snarled. “Can you for once be serious Goddammit!” Lily raised a single thin brow.” But I am serious.” Seeing my irritation grow she smiles. “Brother you know you don’t have to be afraid of this getting out. My tongue and mouth are sealed when it comes to your personal life. Besides I like Aurora, she’s odd, well her features are, but definitely really pretty compared to that Adrian that prance around you “Don’t mention her name!” I barked still damn furious about what happened earlier. I should’ve killed her. Lily’s lips tip into a sly smile. “Who? Adrian?” “Yes, that one. Don’t mention her name in my presence!” I seethed. Lily snorted, “Oh right. Talk around is that you crushed her throat and nearly made the poor girl go mute for the rest of her life.”

I narrowed my eyes on my sister. “You seem to know everything that’s going around.” She lists her shoulders in a careless shrug. “It’s my duty.” “Your duty is to rest in bed Lily. Did you even take your medication?” I snapped. Finally she grows uncomfortable and winces. Good I caught her. “I hate that new medication, “She sticks out her tongue as if tasting the bitter liquid. I give her a pointed look. My sister may irritate me to the end of earth but I do love her dearly. ” But you know that you have to drink it, Lily. That’s the only way to stop the poison from spreading faster.” She sighs heavily, cringing. “That I know brother. That I know. Sometimes I wish to just let the poison take effect I stiffen and she notices and gives me a playful smile.” But then I remember I have to be the one to torment you for the rest of your life. That is until I won’t be able to anymore.” “You’re annoying,” I rolled my eyes, fighting off a smile. “Precisely my point.” She snorts then suddenly coughs. Her palm press to her lips to stop it. I take a step forward but she shakes her head. Even at her age, Lily was more of an independent young woman who thought that she should never lean on a man for any kind of support. We used to joke about her mate having a handful but now, she thinks she’ll be gone before she even turns eighteen. The thought has my heart tightening in pain. She retracts her hand and quickly wipes her hand on her shirt. But I had already seen the little red drops on her palm and had undoubtedly taken the copper smell of blood. “You need to take your medicine now Lily.” I demanded, hating that I couldn’t do anything to help her. I tried everything, from demanding a witch to make a potion, to finding the best doctor. None could do anything but tell me the flower that can help her is no longer on this earth.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
