Chapter 42
Daisy
After bringing Alpha Xavier to his room and dropping him on his bed, I close the door behind me. “You have a lot of explaining to do.”
Tired eyes meet mine. “Can it wait for tomorrow?”
“No,” I try not to focus on his gorgeous body. He is lying on his stomach, but after seeing his abs and massive tool, it does little to quench my thirst for him. Still, I push it down and dig my eyes into his green. “From day one, you’ve been the one ordering me around. I’m tired of that. For once, you’re going to listen to me.”
He grunts, rolling over onto his back, a look of exasperation shadowing his handsome features. “Fine,” he groans, digging his shoulders into the plush pillow behind him. “What do you want to know?”
“The truth.” I say, my voice steady. “Why did you reject me?”
He glares at me in silence before saying, “Next question.”
“Fine.” I growl. “Is Yato also a hybrid?”
“No, my brother and I don’t share the same mother.”
“But he knows about you being?”
“A monster?” a bitter laugh escapes his lips. “Yes.”
I wander over to the edge of the bed and sit down, my back faced with Alpha Xavier. “You’re not a monster.”
“Lies.
“It’s the truth…”
He is silent until he mutters in a low voice, “I can sense yo
your fear you know. You’re afraid of me.”
I can’t bring myself to answer him because even though I don’t want to admit it, he’s right. There is a part of me him, his power, his secrets.
that fears
But there is also an undeniable attraction, a pull that makes me want to know more about him, to understand him.
Alpha Xavier sighs. “I don’t blame you. I’m afraid of me, too.”
His words hang in the air between us, the silence filled with a raw honesty that leaves me breathless. I reach out tentatively, my fingers running up his forearm. He stiffens at the contact but doesn’t pull away.
“I don’t want to be afraid,” I murmur, swallowing down the lump in my throat. “Not of you.”

“Like I said, I don’t blame you. My vampiric side comes with a lot of consequences. That’s why I’m trying to fight it
Consequences?”
“What if the vampire prince will be able to control me like the rest of his subjects? What if I hurt you or worse…kill you?” His voice trembles with a raw fear that I can feel reverberating in my bones.

Chapter
I’ve never seen Alpha Xavier scared before, probably because he didn’t trust me enough to show me this side of him. The mere thought makes my heart ache, and I squeeze his hand in reassurance.
“Can we focus on brighter things tonight?” I ask.
“Such as?”
“Your pretty green eyes.
A small smile creeps up along the outer corners of his eyes. “You’re still as crazy as ever.”
“It’s called being honest.”
The smile moves to his mouth, pulling at it, but he won’t let it unfurl. I wonder if I will ever see this man smile with ease. I wonder if he will ever let me see him this vulnerable again or if this is a one-in-a-lifetime glimpse into his heart. I decide to push further to see if he’d let me in.
“I like you, Xavier,” I say, the words tumbling out of my mouth before I can stop them. “I like you a lot, and it’s not because you’re an Alpha.”
His eyes meet mine, surprise and suspicion warring in the depths of his emerald gaze. “Why then?” he asks, his voice barely audible.
“Because you’re you.” I reply simply. He blinks at me, appearing momentarily stunned by my honesty.
“You like me even though I’m a hybrid?”
I sigh at his words. “I don’t know how I feel about your hybrid nature. I know it scares me, but the man in front of me, the man you are when you’re not an Alpha or a hybrid, is who I’ve fallen for. So can we please ignore everything else and just let us have tonight?”
For a moment, Xavier’s gaze hardens, as if he’s preparing for a blow. But then he grunts. “That’s more than I deserve from you..”
I smile. “I know.”
“And stop calling me Xavier. I’m your Alpha.”
Instead of arguing, I lie down on the bed beside him and look straight into his eyes. “Okay, Alpha Xavier.”
His lips pull into a wry smile at my words. “You’re impossible,” he mutters, shaking his head slightly.
“And you love it,” I shoot back, a teasing smile tugging at my own lips.
He stares at me, and I stare back. It feels as if a million years pass before he makes his move. His head lowers, and his lips land on mine, hesitant at first. Our tongues tangle as he moves his hands to my face, cradling my cheeks.
It’s as if I’ve been waiting forever for this moment, his touch, and I sink into the pleasure, the pressure of our mouths increasing. His hand slides up to my dark hair, and he cups my rape, pulling me closer,
My moans get swallowed by his lips. I’m coming alive with his every touch, each stroke of his tongue against mine sparking a fire in my veins. But despite the hunger and the need that consumes us both, his touch remains tender, careful as if he is afraid to break me.
It’s not what I want-I want to go back to him showing his dominance over me. Choking me. Telling me that I’ve been a bad girl while teasing my senses.
