The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 110
“Valid point, but it was just that. I just wanted to see you.”
He lifts a wary hand to my cheek. The back of his hand hovers around my skin for a few seconds before gently grazing his knuckles down my cheek bone. It traces down the curve of my jaw and when he reached my chin, he tucks his fingers under and tilts my head up.
The amusement is gone from his eyes.
“I will never do anything with the intent of taking something from you in return. Not without your consent. However,”
He finds a stray lock of hair and holds it in his fingers. Then, ever so slowly, tucks it behind my ear. His fingers linger on my cheek and I find myself getting impatient.
Hot.
Wanting.
“-if you’re offering, I won’t hold back.”
Oh f ck.

I clench my legs together. The pool of desire in my lower abdomen forming from his words. The smile I had plastered on my face wavers.
He really just had to go there.
“So do tell me, just what I was doing in your dreams to make you utter such words in a sinful
manner.”
Me.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
The bluff sounds every bit of the lie it is.
Raizel grins, then leans forward, and I stop breathing and moving all together. I feel his stubble brush against my cheeks. My face lights up like a red stop light as I breathe in shakily. The feel of his skin hot against mine almost elicits a shudder from me. Flesh against flesh, desire against desire, it’s a surprise I didn’t jump him by now. It didn’t help when I felt the tip of his nose glide down my neck. “Are you sure? It sounded awfully suggestive.”
He whispers huskily. His lips just barely touches my earlobes. But that little contact is enough to make my knees go weak and buckle. My fingers dig into the wooden desk even harder while my toes curl in anticipation. I was tense. Rigid and stiff from not knowing what to do or how to act. He was a master at making a complete mess out of me and he dedicated everything he was doing with the intent to prolong it.
“You heard wrong.”
-Lies.
He hums, letting me know he’s heard me but doesn’t pull away. Bringing his lips to my cheek, his kisses me there. The kiss is so soft I think I’m imagining it, but the tingles that erupt from wherever he touches me tells me otherwise. He breathes me in, sighing out as his chest presses against mine. “I smell your arousal.”
I don’t get a chance to respond, not that I really knew how to. He lifts his head up and stares down at me. The embarrassment floods into me as my flamed cheeks burns bright. He has the power to
summon a blush with four words.
Four incredibly humiliating words.
My mouth parts and closes like a wind up toy, unable to form an explanation that he’d understand or accept. I feel every segment of mortification in my system. My wolf, who didn’t seem to mind. being caught red handed, merely watches with excited, gleaming eyes. If she had the ability to talk to him, she probably would’ve been up front about it.
“You- you must be imagining things.”
I whisper quietly. The hand that previously caressed my cheek cups the back of my neck and lightly tilts my head up. He makes me look at him, not that the sight is anything you wouldn’t want to see. He looks at me with a small smile playing on his lips as the pad of his thumb swipes affectionately along my jawline. The feathery touch melts my insides into mush. Just from that alone, had me men tally sighing out my elation.
