Chapter 13 He Kissed Me!
The sweet juices burst with flavor as I chewed, saturating my tongue with a tangy flavor that made me want to cry out with pleasure. It tasted so good, but I kept my moans to myself, wondering how the fruits on other plants would taste when this one was so good.
But I didn’t get the chance to try another one.
The sounds of footsteps met my ear right before I heard Beta Jake’s horrified voice, “Miss Black… what are you doing here?!”
Seriously, what kind of luck did I have?
I turned to look at him, no, them, wondering if my teeth were stained purple with the juice. I doubted I could say anything to hide the fact of what I was doing, and I’d probably be in worse trouble if I lied. “Good evening, Your Highness, Beta
Jake…”
They both looked at me in disbelief, and finally, I heard Prince Theo yell, “Just what the fuck are you doing now?!”
All right, I’d done it.
This was the first time I’d ever heard him raise his voice and curse. Needless to say, he was beyond furious. I didn’t even have the courage to imagine what the consequence could be that was waiting for me.
Why must fate hate me?
Dipping my head, I apologized. “I’m… I’m sorry, Your Highness,” hoping with miracle, my good attitude would lessen my punishment.
“You need to do it now before it’s too late, Alpha,” said Jake, ignoring me as he made his suggestion in an urgent tone.
What did he mean? To do what?
Before I could react at all, Prince Theo had already moved toward me. Within a split second, he was on me and moving me backward in a hasty retreat until I hit the wall.
He had a look on his face I couldn’t quite place, and a thrill pulsed through me as my very life flashed before my eyes. It was as if he wanted to kill me and eat me at the same time, but there was no way for me to run.
Prince Theo leaned in, his dark eyes locked on mine, and I immediately felt like an animal, caught in the gaze of a predator.
This was the first time I was able to see eyes so closely. As frightened as I was, I had to admit that he had a pair of enchanting orbs. They were dark, deep, but at the same time, clear. My own reflection was in them and I didn’t want to look
away.
My heart started beating loudly and uncontrollably, and then the next moment, his warm lips were pressed against mine.
Shock, disbelief, confusion and mortification… waves of emotions overwhelmed me. My natural instinct to resist him and to try to escape quickly melted away as he continued to
