"Oh. I am sorry."

He glances at me and can see the question that I am not willing to ask out of respect.

"Car accident." He says. "As strong as we are, we can still die by rapid sudden means."

Silence suddenly stretches until he speaks again.

But you must be exceptionally willful." Hiseyes intently stare into mine. "A...very attractive quality ina strong mate." pretending.

"So why is it that Alpha Warrick appointed you to be his successor and not hiseldest son? It is customary to appoint the first-born male next in line to be Alpha. Why you?" "It is because of my power."

"Ah, yes. He mentioned thatin your presentation party."

I nod.

We are finally standing in front of the house.

"Well, that was it. It's just anormal pack so not reallymuch to see."

He smiles. "My lady, I am a direct man and so I am shooting my shot. I thinkthat a union between uswould be beneficial to bothour packs. You are abeautiful woman and I haveto admit that I am taken by you. A strong woman."

His eyes gleam almost with excitement as he says this. Itreally unnerves me.

All I really want to say is "No,

I have already chosen a perfect mate"-or rather hechose me first- but I amsure that Warrick will bepissed if I let thisopportunity go. All I can do is keep him hanging.

"A...union between our packs IS a smart choice. I'll...give it some thought."

"Very well. I can only hope to hear from you soon."

I laugh nervously as I walk to the front door and thensprint inside where Warrickstands as if he was waiting for me all this time. "Myoffice." He says.

With a roll of my eyes, I follow him.

As we walk, I spot Colt leaning against a door frame that leads to the living room but he has his arms crossedstaring at me. His green eyes intently follow me as I walk past him. Warrick gives hima look and then looks back atme. "You two do a shit way of hiding it." I get close to him andwhisper. "What do youexpect? I am in love with that man."

Colt obviously hears it because he immediately smiles.

Warrick ignores me and we don't speak again until weget to his office.

"So?" he asks.

"So?" I repeat.

"You can't be that dense.

What happened?"

"Well, you were right. He likes me. Said that a union between our packs would be beneficial."

"Okay. And how did you handle it?"

"I...kept him hanging? Told him that I would think about it."

Warrick nods, deep in thought. "Very well done. I want you to keep playing all of this very diplomatically."

Easier said than done. This isa ll new to me and I am just starting to learn the game.

"Did he ask anything?"

"Like what?"

"Anything that would be considered prying."

"Other than wondering why am I the one succeeding you instead of Victor, no."

"Hmm. Alright. Keep him interested."

I sigh and nod. "Can I go now?"

"Stay away from Colt. Alpha Oliver is staying in the room that is right in front of yours.

So no nightly rendezvous with your lover."

"Why did you put him in front of my room?"

"I want him close to you to entice him."

"Ugh!"

"His men are staying here too and they can be anywhere so again, be careful."

I huff. "I'd say yes Father but I'd be lying. I need to see him eventually."

"If you get caught I swear...

I leave the office before he can finish but he is not wrong. As I walk the halls, there are many of Oliver's men walking and lounging bout.

I headed to the living room where last I saw Colt leanin in front of the door. He is there with Dash, Miles, Bryn, and Lotus apparently having a fun conversation because they all laugh-all except for Bryn. I stop and look at all of them with Serge behind me. "What's so funny?"

"I am just telling them a few stories of when Victor was a child," Lotus says. "That boy had a love for ponies. There was this cartoon show he loved of colorful ponies who would band together to save their world. It was mostly a show catered for...little girls but he didn't know this at the time." She laughs. "Do not mention this to him. He will have my head."

I smile as everyone laughs but my eyes roam to where Colt stands. He also stares atme. It is impossible for us to hide it when we are near each other.

My eyes stay glued to his beautiful green ones. The way his jaw tenses, his muscles stick out with his arms crossed. That simple tight white t-shirt he has on today does not help my urgeto run to him at all. I want tobe near him, to smell him, to take his delicious scent in. Iwant those strong arms wrapped around me, his huge chest taking me in a bear hug.

Unable to contain myself, give him a seductive look which he immediately reacts to by flexing his shoulders and his mouth slightly opening to take in deeper breaths.

Ignoring everyone, I give a barely visible nod and turn around, walking out of the room. When out of the room, I look back and see him already heading in my direction. He follows me as I walk through the hall. My head rakes with the thought of what to do, and where can we go. Not my room that's for sure.

Unable to contain my thoughts any longer, I open the first door I come acrossnext and dip inside.

"Stay," I say to Serge, leaving him outside.

To my surprise, it was a room I didn't know we had.

It seems to be a music roomand luckily it is empty.

I turn around to replace that Colt is already inside closing the door behind him. He rushes to me and immediately kisses me desperately. I cling to his shirt. His delicious scent overwhelms me and I take it all in.

He picks me up and sits me on what I think at first is a desk but then we notice that

it is a piano because of the loud noise the keys make when my butt sits on them.

Still ferociously kissing me, he carries me to another area where this time he sits me on a desk. I can feel how hard he is when he grinds on me.

"I saw him with you." He puts a hand on the back of my neck possessively and continues to kiss me.

"Doesn't matter. I am yours."

"He touched you." He says and kisses me again.

I take a breath. "I. Am.

Yours."

"Mh...all mine." His whisper has a growl to it.

Suddenly, he clenches his fist on my hair and pulls it back making me expose my neck where he starts kissing.

"Mh..." I moan.

My hand starts to drift down his abs and my fingers slither inside his pants.

The contact of my fingers on his hard member makes him hiss. It excites me and I can feel my nipples hardening.

"Wait!" I hear Serge say outside of the room.

The door suddenly swings open and we both jump. He immediately moves away while the pack member who seems to have come here to clean stares at us. Her cheeks turn red and she immediately bows her head. "I am sorry, Alpha." Fixing our clothes, Colt and I immediately start sprinting out.

"It's okay, it's okay," I say clearing my throat and feeling embarrassed yet frustrated.

Uh, I really wanted him.

I can sense his own frustration too and this is only one day, and not even that long cause we were together this morning.

Wait, how long is Alpha Oliver staying?

Grrr! Damn it.

I spend the rest of the day walking like a zombie around the house not knowing what to do with myself. I want to see Colt but when I do, I can't control it. I want to be near him.

I decide to go see James but it is the same as last time. He is mourning.

When dinner time finally comes, we are all seated as we were this morning. Oliver sits in front of me and throughout the dinner, his eyes linger on me way too much for my taste.

Especially when I can feel Colt pissed off a few seats away.

At first, I start to feel happy that the conversation is about the war with Ezra and nothing else but I change my mind because it quickly leads to Oliver talking to Colt.

"Well, you know the territory better than anyone else here," Oliver says to Colt.

"Yes, I do. So when the time comes, I'll share what I know but for now you don't need to know a damn thing." Colt answers.

Oliver and Colt are quickly butting heads. This is a tension that Colt created because Oliver knows nothing about Colt and me. Unfortunately, Warrick is not happy about this. He turns to me and I can see the warning in his eyes. If Colt continues, he's going to have to punish him but then that goes against what I told him, that I would stay as long as he doesn't hurt Colt.

I abruptly get up, making my chair heard by everyone.

"I apologize. I am not feeling too good right now. I'll be heading to my room."

Without letting anyone say anything, I turn and sprint out of the dining room. Of course, the only one that follows is Serge. Hopefully my not being near Oliver will calm Colt.

I get to my room-leaving Serge at my door-and start changing only to have someone knock on my door in the midst of it.

I open it thinking that it's Serge but no, it is Colt.

"What are you doing? You can't be here."

"I know but I just needed to see you."

"Colt, you can't be here-" I whisper but he doesn't let me finish trying to tell him that I want to meet him somewhere else in secret.

"Godamit, fine!" He turns and stomps away.

I sigh.

That temper of his. What a big baby he can be sometimes. I get that he is angry but it makes me smile.
