Chapter 18

Chapter 18:

I raised my palm to my nose, closing my eyes to inhale her scent before it vanished again.

Good thing I had touched her.

The scent of peach, lavender, and vanilla made my mouth water. I had to bite my lip to stop a groan from escaping.

But a frown settled on my face when a picture of her flashed in my mind.

She looked like she had been hit—like someone had slapped her repeatedly.

Anger flooded me as the realization that she had been mistreated hit me.

Why would they abuse her? Where were her parents?

Wait.

What was wrong with me? Why did I feel so concerned about a girl I had just met?

What was it about her that wouldn’t leave my mind? She even made me say thank you twice. I hadn’t said “thank you” in years.

Fuck!

I needed a distraction. I needed something to take my mind off her.

“We’re home, my king,” Jasper announced as we pulled into the garage.

I didn’t even realize we had arrived at the castle.

“Is something bothering you? You’ve been acting strange…”

“I need every detail about that girl from the pack. Don’t leave out anything,” I ordered.

“But Alpha?”

“You’re dismissed,” I interrupted, walking away and ignoring the puzzled look on his face.

I knew he thought I was losing it. I felt the same way.

I washed quickly, letting my legs carry me to Rosa’s room, ignoring the greetings along the way.

I burst in, shutting the door behind me and turning to a naked Rosa stared at me in shock.

It was better that way. I knew she wasn’t expecting my visit, but who cared?

“My king,” she greeted, bowing and dropping the piece of cloth she was about to wear.

Good girl.

I rushed to her, carrying her and placing her on the table so her back was against the wall. I helped myself out of my trousers, unzipping them to free my cock, and plunged deep into her. I grabbed her slim waist, pulling it closer to meet mine, pushing deep until her screams filled the room. Her hands tightened on the edge of the table as I buried my lips in her neck, giving her sensual kisses.

She knew better than to touch me, no matter how tempted she was.

The scent of strawberry and chocolate filled my nostrils, causing my cock to soften slightly. I withdrew from her, a confused look on my face. I couldn’t do this anymore.

“My king,” she moaned, caressing her breasts.

“My king,” she called again, but this time, it sounded like Aurora.

My lips crashed onto hers, taking them roughly as I assaulted her erect nipples with my thumb. The scent of vanilla, peach, and lavender flooded my senses, making me deepen the kisses. I parted her legs, shoving my shaft into her, ramming in and out of her nonstop until her release smeared the table. Sex with her was better as I imagined her to be Aurora. With one rough, hard thrust, I released my seed deep inside her, then pulled out.

I felt much better.
