Chapter 6

• Lucianna’s POV
• I was trembling, not with fear, not with excitement, but something different. A feeling I never encountered before I met him, a feeling that is there when he looks at me like this.
• Disgust? No. He is not disgusted but there is a faint side of that emotion mixed with something else. I can’t put a word with it.
• “Can't get your tongue?” he smirked, crossing his arms in front of his chest and tilted his head a bit. “Go back. I don’t want to see you.” he said in a clenched jaw.
• “I-Is there something wrong with me?” I managed to ask, my voice is in its lowest. I think my head is clouded with his scent, and I know its the mate bond talking but I tried my best to not get swayed by the pull.
• Because I feel like jumping on him right now. And if the situation is not like this, I would’ve.
• The Alpha just kept on staring at me, making me uneasy but I deny to avoid our eye contact. Even though this is the hardest part I ever encounter with someone. Looking straight in the eyes was never a struggle for me, but my mate’s eyes is just drowning, overwhelming.
• It is too much for me to handle.
• “I told you, someone will take you to my house.” he said, ignoring my question. So there is something wrong with me for him, huh?
• I will never back down, mate! I waited for this moment just to meet you, I won’t cringe just because you said and showed me that you dislike me.
• “Why wouldn’t you?”
• He raised his brow at me. “Why would I?”
• This--!! Okay, calm down. Win him over, Lucianna!
• “You’re my mate. Even if I don’t know your name, I am your responsibility now. Isn’t it just right that you take me to my new home?”
• “What?” he exclaimed. His brows are furrowed as he frown, questioning. What’s wrong with what I said?
• “I’m in your care, Don’t you know about this mate thing-”
• “Not that part.” his jaw clenched, and I swear! From the way he look at me right now, it’s like I will be eaten whole!
• But what did he say?
• Wait, what did I say that made him--Oh!
• “Uh, I don’t know your name? Is that it?”
• He bit his lower lip while looking at me intensely. Then, he sighed and let go of that lip. Oh God!
• The way his lip got wet and red just made me so fucking hot.
• “You don’t know me.” he said word by word. Is that wrong, though? We just met today so why is he acting like this?
• “Oh! Do you want to introduce ourselves?” maybe he wanted to know me and he wants me to know him, right? “I’m Lucianna.” I said, extending my hand to him for a handshake.
• Get it, please. Get it!
• “You’re even more disappointing than I thought.” he said with a straight and stern face.
• I was confused with what I heard from him but the feeling of being ashamed get to me more. My head bowed and I looked down to the ground, questioning myself.
• Why? What did I do wrong to disappoint him?
• Like a knife stabbing on my chest, my heart ached.
• No, no. I didn’t do anything.
• My hand slowly retreated together with my world that seems to be mixed in question and confusion, thoughts that are not helpful at all.
• But before my hand fell on my side, he grabbed it! I looked at our hand, our skin touching each other and then I looked up at him with wide eyes.
• He shaked my hand!
• “Jacob.” he said shortly, giving my hand a tight squeeze. “That’s my name.” then he let go of my hand.
• The way our skin touched sent an incredible electricity down to my core that I almost quiver! Damn! Damn, it felt good!
• “What else, now? Harley will be here in a few so head back inside.”
• I was in a haze and my heart was still in chaos! How can he make me feel unwanted and getting my hopes up again?!
• Oh, God! I won’t quit with this mate thing whatever aloofness I see in him!
• Jacob… Jacob… His name sounds so handsome! He is handsome!
• “You look even more dumb being in a daze like that. Just get out of here.” he said and looked away, ready to turn around but I reached on his arm to stop him.
• “Wait!”
• He looked at my hand on his arm and slowly met my eyes.
• “Let go of me.” he even growled inwardly! I got cringed that I quickly took my hold off of him, grinning awkwardly to hide my embarrassment. Why did I suddenly grabbed on him like that?
• “What do you want?” he snapped and his posture didn’t changed from when I stopped him.
• “Uh, you owe me an apology and you,” oh, god! Won’t I sound too desperate and in heat with this? “Uh, you owe m-my w-wound a l-lick.” I said, looking away. My fingers are crossed, pinching each other behind me and my heart is beating too loud that I think it moved to my ears!
• Fucking----!! There’s no way I’ll be ashamed now! I need to seduce him!
• I don’t care what’s going on in his mind, but I’m his mate so he need to do everything he needed, completing the mating process is included to that!
• I looked at him and saw his expression was taken aback. His lips are parted and his eyes are slightly wide.
• It took him a moment before regaining his composure and cleared his throat. He slowly turn to face me again and I swear my heart is jumping out of my chest as I look away from his intensive gaze. Or was it a glare?
• “I owe you?” he said and took a step closer.
• My feet moved on its own and took a step back. I was intimidated by his eyes! He didn’t look scary but there’s something in those eyes that screamed danger to me.
• I gasped when the cold wall touched my skin through my backless dress. Jacob didn’t stop stepping closer and I my head is tilted up when he hovered over me. I’m cornered!
• “I. Don’t owe you. Anything.” he whispered in a rough voice.
• I was lost for a moment, drowned by his scent and the warmth of his body. He is so close! And I should have like it but intimidation got me first.
• Jump on him! My wolf cheered but I couldn’t, I don’t think I can.
• Hey! Get a grip of yourself! The guy called you weak! You know you are not!
• Taking a deep breath, I matched the way he looked at me. “You called me weak.”
• “’Cause you are.” he breathed. Fuck, why does he sound so sexy?!
• “I’m not! You don’t know me yet and I forgive you for judging me because you haven’t got to know-”
• “Forgiveness is only for those who asked. And you are weak, no more argument on that part.”
• I felt my blood run cold from what he said! He is so rude! Can’t he think properly? Is there something wrong with his head?!
• “I told you I’m not--”
• My words are cut when he suddenly groaned as if in pain before dipping his head on my neck.
• I gasped and my eyes widened when I felt his wet, warm tongue touched the wound of his claim on my neck!
• “Ahh~” I could not contain my moans! The way his tongue touched my skin is electrifying, it’s blowing my mind!
• Jacob groaned and I felt his hands snaked on my back! Our skin are bare touching each other!
• Is this what he meant by despising me? His actions are far from his words!
• I felt him suck on my neck, and he is not the claim-wound anymore! He was licking and sucking on the skin just below my ear and it was awesome!
• “J-Jacob--”
• More! I want more of this! More of him!
• The way he touch me, I swear I felt like a gem, something he possess dearly. This is the power of the bond, this is what I wished and I’m having a taste of it!
• I was snatched out of my haze when Jacob suddenly stopped, cursing softly before pulling himself away from me.
• I smiled upon seeing his expression. He can’t look at me and his face are all red! Oh, my! Is he shy?
• Maybe he is a virgin, is that why he kept on pushing me away?
• Ohhh, I’m also inexperience but I’m ready to go all out for you, mate!
• I sensed someone and looked around. I saw a guy standing in a safe distance. “Alpha Jacob,” he greeted.
• I looked at Jacob and found him looking at me with the same intensity he has been eyeing me since earlier.
• He sighed and turn to the man who just popped out of nowhere. “You’re late. Take this woman to my house.” he said and turned his back at me.
• What? That’s it? No! I’m still after a kiss!
• “W-Wait! You should come with me!”
• “Don’t push it.” he just said without stopping or looking back to me.
• The heck!
