Page 27 of The Alpha's Huntress

I walked back behind the tree and peaked my head out to watch her.

She punched a rogue’s throat and then put an arrow through him.

Another was coming back behind her but she didn’t see him because she was trying to kill the rogue in front of her.

She killed the rogue in front of her but still couldn’t sense the one behind her.

I growled and lunged at the rogue coming up behind her.

She quickly turned around ready to shoot another arrow. But she put it away when she saw me snap the rogue’s neck.

“Alpha Blake, why are you here? You could have gotten hurt.” She asked.

“You’re worried about me?” I smirked.

“I’m just saying if you’re injured there will be no one to take care of your pack.” She pointed out.

“Untrue. You’ll take care of our pack.” I correct.

“Your pack will never accept a huntress, or give me their trust.” She was about to leave but I grabbed her wrist and spun her around.

“I don’t care.” I pulled her into a hug and nuzzled my head in her neck. “As long as I’m with you and I’m sorry for hitting you.”

I kissed her neck gently. I saw her shiver in delight. I smirked against her skin.

I kept kissing her neck until a hit her “sweet spot” where I was supposed to mark her.

I pulled away from her neck. “Not yet but soon.” I kissed her forehead.

“I-I have t-to go. Midnight is waiting f-for me.” She stuttered.

“Can I can with you? I couldn’t stand being away from you for so long. I need you by my side.” I begged.

“Just for today.” She got out of my arms and started walking.

I followed her and took a hold of her hand but she snatched it back.

That hurt.

I put my arm around her shoulder but she shrugged it off.

Ouch.

I put an arm around her waist and pulled her closer to me but she smacked my hand away.

Why won’t she let me touch her!?

Throw the dog a bone.

Her house came into view. As soon as we were inside Midnight ran up to me and growled at me.

Geez, what did I ever do to her?

Besides dognapped her.

“Midnight it’s OK. He’s just staying here for today.” Artemis told Midnight.

Midnight sent a glare my way then walked off.
