The Alpha King’s Possession

6. Stolen Sleep

KIAN

I couldn’t even fucking sleep after last night. Knowing that she was down there in the goddamn cold, even if she was a vampire. At the same time, her anger and hatred towards me only pissed me off immensely. I clenched my fist, my claws digging into my palm, drawing blood. Luca watched me; his arms were crossed, waiting for me to stop my pacing.

“I’m kind of confused… I mean, I don’t understand why you agreed to this. You do know those blood suckers have been stealing our people, especially the humans, to feed on them? I admit that woman is beyond beautiful, and I get why you probably wanted her, but agreeing to this over one sexy woman?”

My eyes flashed and I growled, slamming my hand down on my desk, splintering it down the middle.

“She is mine!” I hissed murderously.

Him calling her beautiful only fuelled the inferno that was blazing inside of me. He looked completely confused and shocked.

“Whoa… Ok…” Luca backed away, raising his hands in surrender. “She’s yours… but is there more to it Kian?

I didn’t say anything, frowning deeply. I had fought against so many, including my own brother, for this position, to show them that I was the strongest. If anyone found out that my mate was a vampire… This was a position I fought against everything for, and it was not one I would let go of, especially for a vampire. I frowned in disgust; I disliked her kind… Yet at the same time, she ignited a forbidden desire within me that I never wanted to feel, especially for one of them.

“There is nothing more to it. Don’t butt into my personal business, Luca.” I growled.

“Ok… I won’t, but really, try not to let it get to you.” He said, shoving his hands in his pockets. “Anyway, I’ll make sure the security for the upcoming Alpha summit is in place. You know how these things go.”

He scrubbed a hand down his face, sighing.

Yeah, I fucking knew. The strongest Alphas in the country in one room always caused some drama, and I had to sit through it and deal with it. The downside of being the Alpha of Alphas…

curves of a woman, from her peachy ass to her bouncing breasts, that weren’t huge, but they were on the larger side for her build. Yet there was one thing about her that was far from perfect. Her race. She was a vampire…
