Chapter 5. Temptress & Silver Wolf
Jasper’s POV
Before, I didn’t care about pda, but going all wolf on a random woman in an elevator would make even me feel shy. I was curious about what she did in that club. She ran out of the elevator before I could say a word.
I swore because I couldn’t hold on to her for long. Something about her made parts of me come alive that I thought were dead. I wanted her tonight, and my wolf wasn’t going to give up without a fight.
I decided to follow her because she was a little girl running alone into the woods. What on earth did she think? I followed the faint scent of her perfume, which I knew she hid with magic. I heard growls before I got to her, and I knew right away that it was Rogues. Again, I swore, but I was ready for the challenge. But I had to be careful. Before the time was right, no one could see my true wolf.
I took all three wolves’ hearts out and then changed back. I was smart enough to take off my pants and put them back on before I moved. After her little panic attack in the elevator, I’m sure that showing up completely naked would probably overwhelm her again. God, I really want to be so much better than her.
When I got back to the lake, she was still in the water up to her neck. I had no idea what she was doing, but it seemed like she had given up. Red swam around her body in the blue water, and I knew it was because of the cuts on her body.
Fuck! She must be in a lot of pain. The last cut on her thigh went all the way through. I saw the Rogue’s claw dig into her skin, and as soon as it did, her blood started pouring out.
I walked through the water with my feet and felt a great feeling all over my body. It felt almost like magic, but that couldn’t be true. I put my arms around her and took her in my arms. The moment her body touched mine, it felt so good that I almost purred. What the hell was going on?
When we got to a place where the water was less deep, she jumped out of my arms and splashed water on my face. Seeing how playful she was brought out on my own. In less than 30 minutes, this little wolf went from making me want to pet it to making me want to protect it and worry about it.
I let my feelings out as I chased her through the water. When she laughed, my body calmed down, and my heart grew bigger. Then she said my name, which she shouldn’t have known. It was the name my parents gave me when I was born, but I shouldn’t have used it. When I first touched her, I was so taken by her beauty that I couldn’t think straight.
Now she stood there in the water up to her waist and teased me.
“Alpha Jasper, you are the worst knight in shining armor.”
As soon as she said that, I couldn’t breathe, and my eyes turned black with lust.
“Do you want me to save you, little wolf?” I challenged her as I crept up on her.
As my body touched hers, I could smell how excited she was. She was scared of touching me, but she also wanted to. Then I saw it again, which shouldn’t have happened. Her eyes started to look like thin, dark silver swirls. She was a silver wolf, which was rarer than me. I should have asked her about it, but my wolf took over.
“She will be ours,” My wolf said in my mind.
As soon as I put her down on the beach, I only had one thought. I was ripping off her underwear and shoving it so far into her. My midnight wolf had to get her silver one back. She was strong and beautiful, the kind of woman my wolf would want to mate with. He wouldn’t even let my human side try to talk to him. I would have to worry about what happened next.
I grabbed her underwear tightly with my big hand, but before I could rip it to pieces, I heard growls from the tree line. This time, though, it wasn’t a Rogue. A strong wolf that was ready to kill on sight came up to us. I was now on the Alpha King’s land, which could be seen as breaking the rules.
“You have to be fucking kidding me!” I said it with my teeth clenched and a roar of anger coming out of my mouth. My wolf was stronger than any other I had met, and he demanded to be obeyed. I spent years trying to get him to listen to me. I only had one goal in life, and I wasn’t about to lose sight of it now.
We both jumped up and stood up straight. I didn’t know what I should do. I couldn’t move to face her. My true wolf was hidden from everyone. I usually had an illusion spell that made my wolf look tan with black spots, but I ran out of herbs. I was walking out of the club to meet a witch friend when I ran into the temptress who was moving around next to me.
“You need to go,” she said, with her eyes wide.
“I don’t run. I know who this country’s leader is. Nothing will be done.”
“Yes, I also know the Alpha,” she answered quietly, but before I could ask her to explain, a pure white wolf stood in front of us and got ready to attack.
A white wolf was rare but not impossible to find. I didn’t know what to think because the little wolf next to me was silver, and I was midnight. I really wanted to keep her safe, and it was stronger than any other feeling I had.
The white wolf’s bared teeth were dripping with salvia, telling us both not to move. I reached out slowly and pulled her behind me. She was very happy that I was looking out for her, but she quickly pulled herself together.
“Listen, little wolf. Call your Alpha, and we’ll figure this out. We don’t mean any harm; we’re just confused,” I said with an arrogant smile.
The white wolf was not small, but I knew I was stronger, and now he knew it, too. I was on the King’s land without permission, which meant we could die. If I could get this wild wolf to calm down before I cut off his head, I could talk to the King and explain.
The wolf then howled for help and came toward me with a deadly look. Even though I was sending out waves of submission, he didn’t back down. Even though I couldn’t let out all of my aura, it was enough to make him run away. But this wolf had a job to do. Something made him want to go against even me.
I pulled the woman closer to my back and could feel her muffled moan as she pressed up against my behind.
“Seriously! Not now, baby,” I spoke to her in a whisper that was full of lust. I couldn’t think straight because of how she made me feel, and I had to keep an eye on this white wolf’s every move. With one swipe of his claws, he could kill her right away.
“Sorry,” she said as her big, innocent eyes looked up at me. When she suddenly needed my help, it made the corner of my mouth curl up. My tongue shot out and slid over my bottom lip. I didn’t know what was going on, but I forgot about the wild wolf that was ready to eat us, and all I wanted to do was finish what we were so close to doing twice already.
The white wolf didn’t like how disrespectful I was, so he hit me with his claws. Blood poured out of my chest, and anger rushed through my whole body at once. My eyes went completely black, and I let out a very loud scream.
She gasped when she saw how much power was coming from my very angry wolf. She quickly put her hands on my chest, making me feel calm. The pain got a little better, and I was sure she was helping me get better. Then I had an idea. I knew that couldn’t be true. Could it be that she was my soul mate? I knew that a mate’s touch could calm your soul, ease your pain, and heal you a little bit, but we weren’t mated yet.
I got rid of the thought by shaking my head. I was the strongest Alpha there ever was. I knew when two people were meant to be together, and I’d know if we were. No, this little silver wolf was different in some way.
Before I could tear the white wolf apart and then ask this temptress some questions, she turned around and tore what looked like a red wig off her head.
What the hell is going on? On her head was a thick, messy bun of brown hair. She took the band off, and her long, wavy curls fell down her back. I liked her red hair, but this long, silky brown hair made her look even better.
“Get out of here now, or I’ll gladly rip out your throat, Owen,” she told him to do something in a strong Luna voice, which made him whimper. He moved and grabbed his shorts, which were wrapped around his ankle. He put them on quickly.
“What the hell, Elise? Where have you been? Sia said you were kidnapped. Everyone is very worried.”
The little boy gave her a hug. I could see the anger in her eyes, and all she wanted to do was give him another throat punch. He was the same boy she was trying to get away from at the club. What was going on in this very crazy group?
