Chapter 22
Aftermath
Elijah slowly dropped onto the bed next to her, pulling her against his chest and placing a soft kiss on her forehead. He rested his chin on top of her head, neither spoke, the sheer weight of what they had just done clear in their minds.
Neither regretted it, even if they were supposed step-siblings and if anyone back home found out it would cause issues Elijah didn’t care, he wanted Scarlett by his side. He wanted her as his Luna… If her mate turned up he wouldn’t hesitate to tear his heart out. The sheer reality of his thoughts made him slowly move back.
He looked down at her, not missing the way her chest rose and fell. Not wanting the mood to become serious, he placed a cocky smirk on his lips.
“So was it everything you dreamed of?” He said teasingly stroking her ass, God he loved her ass. He wanted to fuck her bent over and see it move… his dick twitched, and he pushed the thought out of his head. He would fuck her in every way possible, he would make sure of that.
“No.” She said pushing him away as she sat up, wincing slightly. Elijah raised an eyebrow but before he could comment she looked over shoulder giving him a small smirk “It was better.”
He smirked, watching as she got off the bed, looking around, there was nothing to clean up with… His eyes trailed over her delicious body, he throbbed seeing his cum leaking down her thighs. He growled sitting up and tossed his shirt at her.
“Clean up with that.” He said turning his gaze away. She smirked, knowing he was getting worked up with her naked state.
“What’s wrong handsome, not getting turned on are you?” She asked teasingly, wiping her legs with his shirt before she bent over teasingly slow on purpose – hearing him swear as she picked up her discarded jeans. Her g string had been destroyed so she’d have to make do.
Elijah frowned watching her shimmy into them, her back to him. He stood up closing the gap between them, gripping her by the hair he looked into her gorgeous eyes.
“You’re treading dangerous waters kitten.” He whispered, she had unleashed a beast within him, taken him to heaven and beyond… Opening a door to unmeasurable pleasure… He craved her…. and he didn’t know if he’d be able to control his desire if she so openly tempted him. She smiled sexily her chest rising and falling hard.
“What are you going to do? Punish me?” She whispered softly, her hand running down his abs. His eyes flashed and the next thing she knew she was pushed against the nearest wall making her moan, her pussy throbbing at his roughness, his hand tightening around her throat.
“If that’s what you want.” He murmured.
“Fuck…” She breathed, his hands wrapped around her waist pulling her against him, his lips crashing against hers in a rough passionate kiss.
A loud growl and the sound of something shattering downstairs bought them out of their heated moment. Their eyes meeting for a second before they parted and quickly moved away to get dressed. Elijah pulled his jeans on and clasped her bra on for her, kissing her shoulder, and it was just when she was pulling her top on that the door was thrown off its hinges to reveal a livid Zidane, his murderous eyes dark green.
Elijah growled pushing Scarlett behind him, his eyes flashing dark cobalt.
Zidane’s eyes scanned the room, the smell of sex strong in the air, he stalked over to them.
“Stay the fuck away!” Elijah warned, his eyes murderous. Zidane looked at him coldly, anger rolling off him in waves. Scarlett placed a hand on Elijah’s bare back, stepping out from behind him.
“What do you want?” She asked coldly. Zidane’s gaze fell to her neck, a flash of what may have been relief flitted through his eyes, making her frown wondering what that was about. He stepped back.
“What do you think you’re doing with my daughter?” He growled at Elijah. Elijah raised an eyebrow.
“What I didn’t want to do with your bitches, now get the fuck out of my sight.” He snapped, hating the way the man acted like a fucking dickhead.
“Watch your tongue kid.” Zidane hissed. “What are you doing in this hell house, didn’t I give you accommodations?”
“We were looking around…” Scarlett said watching as Zidane’s eyes seemed to settle on the small scratches her nails had left on Elijah’s neck during their lovemaking. She hated the fact he addressed her as ‘his daughter’ but she wasn’t going to enrage him any further.
His anger seemed to vanish, replaced by a psychotic smile.
“Indeed… return to the mansion for dinner.” And with that he turned and left the room.
Elijah and Scarlett exchanged looks.
‘We do need to get out of here…’ He murmured through the mind link. ‘Something is really off with the guy.’
‘I know… but… Elijah… this is my pack… look at the state of this place.’ She replied through the link, motioning to the room. ‘When I lived here… I never saw this place. We were locked up in the mansion, home tutored, if we ever left it was heavily guarded and only one stop to our destination then back
home… it was always the same men guarding us too, we were kept hidden away, abused and beaten to within an inch of our lives. Now that I’ve seen the truth… I can’t just do nothing.’
Elijah wrapped his arms around her, he understood what she meant, heck he never heard of a female Alpha, but he couldn’t deny there was something special about her.
“We still need to have a plan.” He said out loud, his voice barely above a murmur. “He won’t let us leave easily but I think we should try making quick work, see who may side us, leave, plan and then consider a takeover.”
She nodded, looking into his eyes. “I don’t want to involve your pack though-”
He growled cutting her off. “Our pack Red.” He corrected, his eyes dangerous. She sighed and nodded.
“You know what I mean…” She said softly, thinking they’d have to tell their parents about this visit…
“Let’s give it till tomorrow night… I’ll contact the Alpha we’re meant to be visiting, he’ll help. We just need some backup… in case things get messy. Once we’re out we’ll work on a plan, together.” He said quietly. Her heart skipped a beat, he truly was a perfect Alpha. She smiled slightly, tiptoeing as she pulled him down and kissed his lips.
“Thanks…” She said. He squeezed her ass, pressing her against him and deepening the kiss.
A small giggle bought them out of their moment, and they turned to the broken door where two pups around 5 stood. The girl was blushing looking at them and the boy looked curious.
“What are you doing?” He asked, his eyes on Elijah’s hands that were on Scarlett’s ass. Scarlett swatted it away trying to get out of his hold.
“Playing with my girl.” Elijah replied, earning a frown from the woman in his arms.
“By touching her bottom?” He asked curiously.
“Yeah its pretty fu-“
“What are you two kiddies doing here?” Scarlett interrupted shooting a death glare at the smirking man.
“Oh… We were hiding from the Alpha.” The girl replied, fear clear in her eyes. Elijah let go of Scarlett who walked over to the girl and crouched down.
“He’s gone now.” She said, stroking her limp black hair. The child was lacking nutrients, she did not need to be a doctor to see that. It was clear despite all the food being prepared, the omega’s didn’t get much of it. “Come let’s go find Candice.”
The children nodded, taking Scarlett’s hands and led her from the room. Elijah followed taking his phone out of his pocket, sending a quick message to the Alpha they were meant to visit and hoping he agreed to help. He had saved his life once, perhaps he’d repay the favour…
He followed the trio down the stairs. Whistling when his eyes fell on Scarlett’s sexy ass, she rolled her eyes over her shoulders at him, despite the smirk that crossed her lips.
They entered the kitchen to see Candice working on a list.
“Candice! The pretty lady was looking for you.” The boy said grinning up at Scarlett. Candice looked over at them, a smile crossing her lips when she saw Elijah shirtless.
“I see you both talked things out.” She said making Scarlett blush.
“We did a lot more than talk things out.” Elijah said smirking. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“I can see…” Candice said as the two children ran off again.
“Can we have a word alone?” Scarlett said looking at the women. A few who seemed to be staring at Elijah had stopped, others too scared to even look in his direction. She frowned, growling low in her throat, making the women who were staring freeze. Her Alpha aura rolling off her, making everyone in the room pale at the strong aura that swirled around them. Weighing down on them like a blanket.
“Easy sweetheart…” Elijah said pulling her into his arms. He liked the fact she was possessive of him, it was fucking hot, but he could see the effect she had on everyone.
Candice looked at them with curiosity, never had she felt so much power from a female before, surprisingly it didn’t affect her as bad as the rest who were visibly shaking or cowering in fear.
She motioned them to follow and led the way out of the room, much to the relief of the women.
“Who are you?” She asked after looking around the empty hallway. The front door was on the floor from when the Alpha had burst in, the women were still trying to get over the fear of the Alphas visit and Candice didn’t want them to get any more scared than they already were.
“I’m Scarlett Malone… daughter of the current Alpha, I want to help this pack.” Scarlett said quietly.
Her words did not have the effect she thought they would, Candice covered her mouth, her eyes wide in shock, tears brimming in them.
“D-daughter?” She whispered as if she were to speak too loudly the spell would be broken.
“Yeah…” Scarlett said wondering why she had reacted that way.
Candice stepped forward, pulling her into a surprisingly strong hug. Leaving both Elijah and Scarlett stunned…
