Chapter Three

He never let go of my hand as her led me past the castle lush green lawn and onto a vanilla gavel path. The once starless sky was now covered with twinkling diamonds and a full moon sat in the sky bathing us in silver. It would have been romantic if it wasn’t for the fact I was with Callum, the most dangerous Alpha at the Unmated Ball!

“Where are you taking me?” I asked as he pulled with under arches of roses and honeysuckle, their scents filling the night air as the gravel crunched under our feet.

“I don’t know,” he threw a lazy grin at me. He pulled me around the corner and stopped, I hit his back hard with a groan.

“Why did you stop?” I stepped back and gasped. In front of me was a white bandstand covered in light and white roses. It was beautiful as I wondered closer climbing up the stairs to stand inside. I had dreamt of having a man take me to a bandstand covered in light and ask me to dance. That was all thanks to Hilary Duff and now I was here I couldn’t help but grin as I remembered that film. How I had wished for someone like Austin Ames.

I turned to Callum who was watching me with a smirk on his face. “This place is breathtaking,” I said as he nodded climbing the stairs towards me. I shifted uncomfortable turning but he grabbed my wrist pulling me towards his chest. I gasped my hand flying up and resting on his broad chest. His thick arms wrapping around my waist as I gazed up at him.

My heart thumped in my chest as my eyes widen, my hands had gone soft on his chest. What am I doing? What is he doing? I pushed at him, trying to get out of his grip.

“Get off me you pig,” I smacked at his chest. He chuckled letting me go. “What hell, do you think you were doing?” I said outraged.

*  “Well I thought that was quite clear,” he grinned stalking towards me. My eyes widened as I eased backwards but he still continued a smirk on his lips as I hit the edge of the bandstand. His gaze had flickered from my face before settling on my lips. My heart banged in my chest as he placed his hands on the rail either side of me, trapping me in place. Up close his eyes didn’t look like oiled gunmetal but the colour of a brooding storm and they glowed like strikes with lightning.

His musky scent filled my airways as he slowly leaned forward, brushing his mouth against mine. He groaned low in his throat, his eyes closing shut briefly at the small contact and pressed against me harder. He dipped down, his lips slanting over mine as he captured them in a soft embrace. He was gentle as if to tempt me and I couldn’t resist him much longer as my eyes fluttered shut when his tongue flicked across my lips. I wanted him to deepen the kiss but I couldn’t shut off my brain.

My mind was screaming at me to break away but my heart wanted more, my heart wanted him!

“Kiss me back,” he said against my lips and for some reason I did. I wrapped my arms around his neck bring him closer as I slowly brushed my lips against his velvety ones. I didn’t know what had come over me as my hands dug into his soft honey dip hair tugging lightly. He moaned against me and that’s when my mind shut off. I deepened the kiss letting my tongue dart across his, like he had done with me. He moaned taking over, cupping the back of my neck with one hand while the other rested on my waist. He nipped at my lower lip making me gasp with surprise as his tongue slipped in and started to stroke mine. I savoured his taste as our lips moved against each other as I lapped at his tongue, he returned with flicks of his as I shivered.

He suddenly broke away, pulling back. “You’re cold,” it was a statement more than a question.

“Maybe a little” I panted, I would never tell him the shiver wasn’t because the cool breeze. He drew back a little, shrugging out of his black jacket and wrapping it around my shoulder. I was enveloped in his warmth and musky scent but my mind was racing. How could I have gotten myself in this situation? I couldn’t have been unprepared for a situation like this. A sexual situation with a dangerous Alpha! I cursed myself for stupid as to take walk with someone like him.

My thoughts were soon cut off when Callum’s finger curled under my chin, drawing me in for another kiss. Our gaze locked, his filled eyes were filled black with desire.

Callum’s POV

I grazed my lips tenderly over her soft plump ones, before giving them a teasing flick with my tongue before pulling back with a grin. Her eyes were like the stars twinkling in the dark velvety night. She was beautiful with is swollen, ruby red lips and flushed cheeks, her hair messy as he chest rose and fell in pants.

 I knew that I could make her want me. The desire swam in her eyes as she gazed at me, her neck flushed as she flickered down to my lips. She nibbled lightly at her bottom lip averting her eyes.

“Lacy,” I whispered I brushed my knuckles along her cheek bones before letting them brush her jaw and them down her neck and across her collarbone. “I never told you, how beautiful you looked.”

Before I knew it, she had grabbed the collar and roughly yanked me closer crashing her lips against mine, hard! My eyes widen in shock at her sudden boldness but I soon found myself relaxing as her lips moved against her. Her tongue trailed my bottom lip, soon she had her tongue in my mouth - battling for dominance as she massaged and stroked mine. My heart banged in my chest as my hands twisted into her glossy hair. The other hand roughly found her thigh pulling her closer as her hand slowly trailed down my chest.

God I wanted her, I wanted her more than I had ever wanted anyone else. My lips trailed down her long slim neck. Her soft, floral perfume filled my airways as I sucked were her neck joined her shoulder, were her pack mark sat. She moaned low in my ear.

Lacy’s POV

He lifted me so I was sitting, balancing on the railings my legs wrapped around the posts as he sucked and nipped at my neck. I moaned tilting my left to my side to fully expose my neck to him. One of his hands clasped my bare shoulder gently rubbing circles with his thump while the other sat on my waist. Suddenly one of his palms cupped my breast. I gasped as he squeezed and began kneading it softly.

“Callum,” I moaned as my eyes closed. I couldn’t think straight with his hands and lips all over me.

*  “Lacy,” he groaned against my neck his teeth grazing my flesh. I gripped his hair pulling him closer to my neck when I felt it, his fangs plunging deep into my neck. I screamed in pain tearing swelling in my eyes as I pushed at his chest.

“Get away from me,” I shoved him away. He fell backwards as I clutched my bleeding neck. “You bastard,” I screamed throwing my heeled shoe at him.

Callum’s POV

The shoes hit me in the chest and snapped me back to reality. Lacy’s cool stare bored into my shocked one. Her face was twisted in anger as she clutched her bleeding neck.

“Fuck,” I snapped as my wolf stirred under the surface. “Shit,” I swore again as I watched the ruby red blood slip down her neck.

“You complete dickhead,” she screeched. “Why the fuck did you bite me?” I cursed myself. I should have controlled my wolf! Panic seeped through me as I felt the magnetic pull towards.

“I’m so sorry,” I began.

“You know what save it prick,” she jumped down and turned to leave. I couldn’t let her; she had to be near me!

“Lacy wait,” I went to grab her hand.

“Don’t touch me,” she growled.

“Lacy don’t leave,” I could hear the desperation in my voice and it made me cringe.

She frowned turning to me. “What?” she drew her hand back from her neck. “Oh god, please say you haven’t!” she looked up panic filling her eyes as she gaze from the blood on her fingers to me. “You haven’t, have you?” she asked.

“It depends what you think I have done?” I asked.

“Have you marked me?” she asked.

I scratched the back of my neck. “No,” I avert my gaze.

“Thank god,” she sighed.

“Not really,” I said feeling a little bit guilty.

Her head snapped up and her beautiful blue eyes narrowed. “What do you mean?” her voice dipped low in.

“I mean it not a full marking that only happens in sex” she flushed red.

“So what have you done?” she snapped.

“I may have given you a bonding,” I scratched my neck as I blushed red.

“What on earth is that?” she asked confused.

“It’s kind of a claim, to show males that you are mine but not fully yet,” I tried to explain. “It’s really rare but it helps to speed up the mating process and it normally only happens if one of the mates doesn’t want to mate with the other.”

“Why the fuck have you given me a bonding mark?” she growled low in her throat causing my wolf to stir in desire and anger.

“I didn’t do it on purpose, it just happened,” I shrugged.

“Well how the hell do you break it,” she snapped.

“Err, I don’t know,”

“What” she screeched. “How am I meant to explain this to my mother?” she suddenly sunk down on the floor her head in her hands. “Oh god I was meant to find a mate and instead I find a dickhead Alpha who gave me a bonding mark,” she cried.

My heart slowed as it ached in my chest. “Hey,” I gently grabbed her wrist pulling her hands away from her face. What I saw broke my heart; tears were streaming down her beautiful face. “Shh baby girl,” I wrapped my arms around her pulling her onto my lap, rocking her back and forth like a child. “I’ll fix this,” I kissed the top of her head as she cried.

“How? No one will want me now, not like they wanted me in the first place anyway!”

“What do you mean?” I frowned. “Lacy you’re beautiful,” I stroked her silky hair.

“Can we just part ways and let the bonding mark break?” she pulled back and looked me in the eye.

My wolf growled in my head. “I’m sorry but I can’t,” I said truthfully.

“What do you mean you can’t?” she asked puzzled.

“Well the bonding has already happened and my wolf won’t let us be apart,” I had totally fucked this up. Why had I gone after a girl that my wolf wanted just as much as me? It was a rucky mistake that I was gonna have to pay for. I was gonna either have to reject her or mate with her and neither sounded desirable to me.

“But I can’t mate with you?” she said suddenly like something had dawned on her.

“Why?” I asked even though I was not interested in having mate but I slightly insult at the same time.

“Because I am an Omega and you’re an Alpha,” she pointed out.

“I knew you were an Omega before I even started talking to you,” I shrugged. I had guessed by the way she sat and the way she bowed her head to almost everyone in the room. That was another reason why I had targeted her. Regret seeped through me as a lump formed in my throat.

“And I’m half-human,” she muttered the last part.

“What?” I frowned. I had known that her scent was different from the rest of the werewolves but I thought it was because I was attracted to her as well as my wolf.

“My father was human,” she said.

“Shit,” I muttered. The Elders would not like this, me giving a bonding mark to an Omega and worse a half-were.

“Exactly my thoughts,” she said bitterly. Why hadn’t I controlled my wolf more? Oh God what was I gonna do?
