Alpha, I'm No Longer Your Luna
Chapter 8
Celestina’s POV
"It's true that the world is too small to meet you again, but that doesn't mean I want to be your prisoner," I whispered softly while my cheeks were flushed as red as a tomato and my body was heating up as he used his finger to trace my arm to my neck. I resisted the want to grunt as he continued to do so, not just because I was uncomfortable but also because my body was reacting to the way he was touching me.
"You are my rejected mate, but when I want to claim you again to be my Luna then you rejected me on that night. Now that our paths have crossed, you can't run away from me again...because I won't let you go."
Fear gripped my body as he grasped my wrist and said, "Because I am the Alpha King, you will submit to my authority and serve under my rule. You don't have a pack, and you have no status; do you believe it's possible for you to make it through this world without being hunted by other werewolves and rogues?"
His face was so close to mine that it was hard for me to breathe. I slowly moved away from him, but he pinned me against the wall and smiled evilly, "Don't make me mad, Celestina. If you didn't want me, I wouldn't want you either. Your refusal makes me want to punish you until the day you die…"
My tears slowly flowed down my face, and I felt like a needle had pierced my heart. I then looked directly into his dark blue eyes and asked, "W-Why me?"
"Because you're the only one with the nerve to turn me down, do you think I'd be happy that a lowly woman like you rejected someone like me? No, Celestina. You have to pay for what you did to me!"
He stared at my teary eyes, then leaned in close, and as I bit my lower lip, his eyes grew crimson as an Alpha would do when he was trying to gain control over his victim. I was so anxious that I parted my lips slightly as I breathed out.
Then he grabbed my neck and pulled me closer to him, and without missing a beat, he brought his lips to mine for the very first time. I was in such disbelief that I was at a loss for words; I wanted to scream for help but couldn't say anything because I felt frozen in front of him. He crushed his warm body against mine as we were propped up against the wall. He grabbed my small waist and softly caressed it with his other hand.
I whimpered as if I was going to push him away, but he was so strong that he intensified the kiss. I felt so lost, and my entire body melted because of his dominance over me.
"So you kicked me out so that you could make out with this newly hired lady, huh?" When Thaddeus heard Roy's voice, he immediately stopped kissing me. He let go of my lips and cast a furious gaze in Roy's direction. When Roy noticed that Thaddeus was staring at him in such a serious manner, his normally light skin transformed into a pale complexion. He then stepped back outside, lifted both hands above his head, and cautiously shut the door behind him.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" He asked me angrily as he looked at me. I wiped my wet lips with my hand and walked away, but he grabbed the back of my arm and whispered, "No one should know about us. If you try to tell everyone about us and what I did to you, you will face a bigger consequence. You know that when it comes to me, anything is possible."
I grimaced at him. "Let go of me, do you really think you can control me?!"
"I will and I can."
"Then you're wrong. I will deal with any consequences or punishment than—"
"You're going to do that because you didn't want to be with me? Your wish is my command, of course, until you beg for me and ask to be my mate again!" He dragged me outside, and when people were looking at us, he acted as nothing had happened. He opened the door to his car and said, "Get in, or I'll make you."
I sucked in a deep breath of anger and rolled my eyes at him.
He drove me to his grand villa, which was full of security guards and housekeepers. Why does he need so many people here when he lives alone?
He still had a tight grip on my wrist. He dragged me up the stairs as we walked, and I told him, "I...I can walk!"
He used his fingerprint to open the last door, then shoved me inside and said, "Well, you wanted this, right?"
"What...What are you doing?" I couldn't help but gaze at him in anguish as he gently unbuttoned his long white sleeves, then arched his brow and said, "This is your punishment."
