The Alpha King’s Possession

18. His Apology

MORGANA

My heart thudded as I stared down at him.

Morgana.

The way my name sounded on his tongue… My stomach knotted and my core throbbed, just at that. How could someone I hate so much have this effect on me? I was already weak and being in the blazing sun was only making matters worse. Maybe the heat and light were getting to me.

“I know you want to torture me, but really, unless you want me to collapse due to the sun, then let me go.” I said coldly.

A frown creased those gorgeous thick brows of his. He didn’t say anything, simply turned and pulled me ‘ down the steps.

“Can you stop pulling me! What do you want?” I glared at his back, trying not to notice the way his sky blue top stretched over his muscles…

He stopped suddenly, and I almost stumbled before he pulled me into an alcove, the shade instantly taking away the weight of the sun that was pushing down upon me. I felt relieved, taking a deep breath as I leant against the cool stone. His entire frame was blocking the sun out, and he finally let go of my wrist, instead placing his hand on the wall beside my head.

“Why didn’t you tell me the truth last night?”

His question took me by surprise, I just crossed my arms, trying to put some distance between us, my gaze flickering to his plump lips. I looked away, refusing to answer.

“That Omega told me what happened today… Why did you cover for her?” He asked coldly.

I looked up at him sharply. Had she told him or was this a trick?

“I have no idea what you mean, I am a cruel bloodsucker, I don’t have compassion.” I said, glaring at him.

But for once, he didn’t seem phased.

“Oh yeah? Then why did that girl lie? Shall I punish her for that?”

My heart thudded, but still, I was worried.

“Alistair also admitted to it.” He added quietly.

Oh…

“She was scared, so I told her to leave.” I said icily.

“Why care for her, she’s just a beast correct?”

He leaned closer and I wondered did he not know what personal space was? His deep, alluring scent always messed with me, and the urge to taste his blood was filling my head.
