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?”
