Chapter 10

I was like a pillar of salt, I hate to admit it, but I was terrified of him. I did my best to cover it up and tried to suppress the feeling.

However, Alpha Blackmoon sure could smell my fear. Werewolves and their sensitive noses. Sometimes a curse could do that, which wasn't always ideal.

The fact that I was his mate changed everything. After all, I was the one person on this planet he hated the most and wanted the least. My fear was rational.

I pulled myself together, cleared my throat, and asked politely, "How can I help?" My voice was at a normal volume and firm. It was questionable how I had managed that.

He looked quite angry and asked, "Who was that? What man are you talking to so happily?" Thanks to this question I had my answer. He had heard Finn's.

Was Alpha Blackmoon jealous? That was hard to imagine.

Well, but it would be kind of understandable if he bought me, I was his. However, he didn't want me. So it was none of his business who I talked to.

Still, I gave him an honest answer: "Finns, my best friend." His look and his charisma gave me goosebumps. I could only hope that he wouldn't be too cruel to me.

The monster just stared at me for a while and I stared back, though not as viciously as he did.

"Your best friend?" That sounded anything but friendly. Could he even have a friendly tone?

I nodded and replied, "I already said that."

His eyes went black and he walked quickly towards me. This worried me and I should start praying to survive this.

Arrived in front of the bed, Alpha Blackmoon held out his hand and wanted my cell phone. So the fear was gone and replaced by anger. I said assertively, "No, that's my phone." Not a bit impressed by my tone, he said menacingly, "Give it to me." I stood my ground and looked him dead serious in the eyes. "No."

I held onto it as my life depended on it. That was the only way I could keep in touch with my family. I certainly didn't give him my cell phone, he had to get it by force.

He made me feel very well that he was an alpha, which made it a bit difficult for my anger.

"Either you give it to me voluntarily or I take it by force. It's your choice, Layla." He'd emphasize my name at the end, and that distracted me a bit.

How wonderful it sounded when he said my name. Beautiful. It was an inappropriate thought for my current situation, but it had occurred to me. This mate band made me go crazy.

I managed to put that out of my mind and focus on the conversation. "No, because it's mine."

With his alpha speed, he wanted to snatch my phone out of my hand. But as soon as he touched my hand, the wonderful sparks were felt, making Alpha Blackmoon flinch as if burned, just like the last time we touched.

His facial expression hadn't become friendlier either, although these sparks were an indescribably beautiful feeling. They usually soothed everyone and were pure exhilaration.

He thundered, "Give me the cell phone!" It was extremely loud, and he chased down a low-pitched growl.

Although he had hurt me with his behavior, I was able to successfully convert it into anger. I looked into his black eyes and said, "No."

Anger was practically written all over his face. A vein in his forehead began to throb. Little doubts arose in me. I probably overdid it, but it was about my family. I couldn't just give up.

Alpha Blackmoon tried again, and this time he used a rougher approach. Of course, he had to grab my hand to take my phone, which set off the sparks. Only this time he didn't seem to care because he didn't flinch.

He tried to snatch my phone from me, but I wouldn't let go. So he pulled me up off the bed, which didn't stop me from fighting for this item.

Unfortunately, as an alpha, he was faster and much stronger, so our fight didn't last long. Within seconds he had my phone in his hand and I was powerless. With his other hand, he roughly held my wrists. He didn't even care if he hurt me and that made the anger in me go away.

He said menacingly, "In the future, obey my every command or there will be consequences." His words didn't quite get through to me because I just didn't have the hard fight to show my vulnerability. If he didn't care if he hurt me, then he shouldn't be able to guess what that triggered in me.

A growl got my full attention back. His jet-black eyes pierced mine as he said, "Never again will you disobey my orders. Never again." The monster let out another deep growl and it sounded very menacing. Nobody wanted to hear that sound. It double-emphasised the message.

Abruptly, Alpha Blackmoon let go of my wrists and took a step back. No more sound came from me. He had made it clear that keeping my mouth shut would be the best solution in this situation.

He didn't say another word and headed for the door. I looked after him and officially lost. He had taken away the only way I could communicate with my family. He yanked the door open, left the room, and slammed it loudly behind him.

I wasn't able to move and my mind stopped.

At that moment, Lilia struggled through and sounded pleased: "He came to us. Yet again. Xavier obviously feels the bond, he can't resist us."

That brought me to reality. The anger graced me, so I snapped at her, " Lilia! Didn't you realize he just took away our only way of communicating with our family?! This is cruel!"

" He's jealous and that's cute. Official proof that it is not resistant to the mate band. That's good. Very good news."

I saw her practically grinning and jumping around happily. She was freaking out, she was officially freaking out.
