Chapter Five

I screamed. In fact, I screamed so hard that I felt a burn in my throat and even a ringing in my ears. I would have gladly continued screaming until I felt a hand smothering my mouth to make me stop. I looked up into his eyes with fear. What was he?! A normal human does NOT have fangs for goodness sake. I mean, how he could…he just…ah! No words can describe what I am even thinking. Actually, scratch that because I don’t even want to think about it. I noticed him studying me and realized that his warm hand was still covering my mouth. I scowled at it and then looked back at him. He didn’t take the hint, so I bit down. Hard.

“Ah! What the f**k did you bite me for?!”

I just stared at him. Well, I mostly scowled at him. How could he be calm?

“What are you?” I asked.

His eyes flashed yellow, but this time he didn’t even try to cover it up. He knew that I saw. My thoughts started coming into my head without warning. Oh, God. He is going to kill me now. I mean, who has a secret like that and let’s just anyone know without intentions to not let that secret out?! He was going to kill me. Deep down inside I just knew it, and I had to get out of here.

“I think you know, Belle,” he said almost seductively. Perve.

“N-no,” I sputtered, “I d-don’t know.”

“Well then. I guess you won’t be finding out anytime soon then.”

It was then that it dawned on me. All of the stories I’d read and even the rumors on the street that I had thought couldn’t possibly be real. All of the fairytales were suddenly rushing back to me. Was it possible? Everything I had ever believed about the mythical creatures; it was all real.

I looked up suddenly coming back to reality. My green eyes met his and he raised his eyebrow in question. Was it true? That was the question that was milling in my mind. I scanned his body, blushing slightly, for any sign; any confirmation of my assumption. I drug my eyes back up to his. I barely notice that he had gotten closer. It was subtle, but I could feel his body heat reaching out to me; almost pulling me in. I had to say it. I stared into his eyes a second longer making him look away and opened my mouth to say the one word that had my mind working overtime.

“Werewolf.”

His head snapped back to me and in a second he had me pushed up against the wall again, but this time I knew that I had to play his twisted game. Even though he wasn’t in contact with my skin, I could still feel the buzz between us and it was distracting me slightly.

“How?” he whispered in my ear, the warmth of his breath making me have to hold back a shiver.

“Stories…” I whispered.

“Which ones?” he asked his voice louder this time.

“Little Red Riding Hood,” I retorted instantly regretting my sarcastic remark.

He withdrew instantly from me almost making me want to call out for him to come back. I was so stupid. Play the game and escape. Just get out of here, Belle! I mentally scolded myself.

“Why are you so difficult, human?” he spat.

Uh, human? So now I had no name.

“Because you KIDNAPPED ME!” I yelled at him going back to my earlier argument.

He started pacing running his hands through his dark brown hair. Gah! Why did he have to do that? It was so…hot! Kidnapper, Belle. Kidnapper! I mentally chided myself. Sexy kidnapper…

I looked around the shower for lack of better things to do and eyed the shower head mischievously. I looked back at him and saw that he was still deep in thought. I smiled evilly and turned around. I reached up and disconnected the shower head from the clamp and pointed it at him.

I looked quickly over at him to see that he was still pacing and talking to himself. Weirdooo I thought. He was saying something about a mate. Ha, crazy man!

Okay. All I have to do is make him so angry that he leaves. Simple enough.

I turned the knob to make the water come out. As soon as water came gushing out I pointed it at him making sure to make it go right into his face. As soon as the water hit him, I regretted my plan instantly. He turned towards me, shocked. Everything happened so fast then. One moment I saw a smirk on his face and the next he was towering over me. He snatched the shower head out of my hand and completely drenched my shirt. I looked down quickly realizing that I had a white shirt on…and a black bra. That little idiot!

I looked back up into his eyes, but not before getting an eyeful of his drenched white shirt that clung to every single muscle. Oh boy. I had a feeling this situation was not going to go in my favor.

His eyes raked over my body, clearly noticing what I was wearing. His eyes darkened slightly, and I was lucky that I even noticed. Before I could comment, he had me pushed up against the wall. I started to struggle, but he started to growl at me which made me freeze. I felt his hands glide up my waist leaving a trail of fire in their wake. They then glided up over my b***s, but I couldn’t find the will to slap him. It felt so good and reminded me that I hadn’t been touched in quite a while which pretty much told me how I was going to react.

His hands then glided up to my face and he cupped my face in his palms forcing me to look at him. I could see that he was losing control and I was more than happy to make him do that.

No Belle! Don’t let him do this to you. You will NOT enjoy this.

As I was mentally yelling at myself for enjoying his touch, I hadn’t noticed him slowly inch his face towards mine with his eyes locked on my lips. I wasn’t sure what he was going to do.

That’s when he crushed his lips to mine. Sparks flew immediately. It was honestly like we were meant for each other as much as I hated to say it.

It was pure bliss. I instinctively wrapped my legs around his waist as he deepened the kiss. His tongue slipped into my mouth as I sighed with pleasure.

I need to not do this. I can’t. He was making me feel things that I thought I would never feel. I actually LIKED him. I had never loved, but I was sure that if I let myself that I wouldn’t know what it even felt like.

I was brought back to my senses when he pressed me hard up against the wall even more. He finally broke the kiss and began trailing fiery kisses down to the base of my neck. He started sucking there making my body shiver with delight.

I then heard him whisper something. It was barely audible and it sounded like he said, “My mate.” I thought I was imagining things when he suddenly pulled away just a little.

And that’s when he sunk his teeth into me.
