Chapter Thirteen
Lucianna's POV
What is he looking angry at when I should be the one feeling that?
I grabbed my phone, taking my eyes off him.
"Uh, I'll call you later about my decision, Dy."
"Sure. Everything okay?"
I bit my lip, feeling nervous all of a sudden. Why didn't I felt Jacob's arrival? Does my senses get numbed, as well?
"Y-Yeah. Later, okay?"
"Sure. I miss you, Luce. I hope you think about the offer, can't wait to see you-"
"Yes! Bye!"
I quickly turned off the call and bit my lip hard. Damn, why did he had to say those words?! Jake was here! Ugh, it's not like he knew but still…
I decided to continue eating without looking back to Jacob again.
My senses heightened when I felt him move, walking towards to me. His steps are slow, it felt deadly like a dark aura was emitting from his body and lingering to the room. To me.
I cleared my throat when I felt being suffocated with my loud heartbeats.
"I-I didn't know you'll come o-over. I did not bother cooking b-breakfast for you." I stutter so I sipped on my glass of water.
I felt Jacob's warmth behind me. My eyes screwed shut and I cursed under my breath, feeling his effects on my body and my nervousness.
Why are you being nervous about, Lucianna! The guy cheated multiple times and there's no guilt plastering on his face! You just talked with a friend, its not like you did something wrong!
Even though I kept nagging myself that, I couldn't calm down!
I made sure I'm blocking my emotions from him or else he might play with me again and feel like winning!
"Who are you talking to?" his deep low voice made me jump. It sounded icy, making a shiver run down my spine. I gulped when I felt his hot breath on my skin. Damn, he was so close.
"Just a friend." I gulped and took my plate, planning on running away from him or I'll lose it.
His scent was mesmerizing. And since we haven't completed the mating process, the pull was still too strong, too hard to bend.
I took a step sideways since I can't turn around when he was just standing there behind me.
But before I could move away, his strong hand grabbed on my elbow, pulling me close to him.
A yelp escaped my lips when my body slammed to his hard chest. I tried my best to avoid looking at his eyes, afraid that I might drown. So I focused my eyes on his chest, trying my best not to get tempted with his burning gaze.
"Really?" His grip tightened that I flinched from it. Fuck! Why does he sound angry and scary?!
"Y-Yes."
"Look at me." he commanded and I gulped. Closing my eyes tight while cursing non-stop in my head.
I know I did nothing wrong but the way he acts right now was really making my knees tremble. Even the way we're close to each other was nothing compared from the fear crawling in my spine.
Fuck.
"You're lying." he spat then held my chin with one hand while the other snaked on my waist, pulling me closer. He made me look at him and my round eyes looked at him in fear.
What the fuck, Lucianna!
"I-I'm not lying…" I said but my voice stammered again, making me close my eyes for a second before meeting his deadly stare once more.
His eyes are too deep. His pitch dark eyes are now with a shade of red, which means his alpha blood was trying to take him over.
But why?!
Suddenly irritated that Jacob was trying to make me succumb to his power. I know I'm his mate, and he don't recognize me yet as his equal but it felt belittling that he uses his alpha on me.
I growled loudly, making his brow furrowed by it.
"Did you just growled at me?" he said through gritted teeth.
I tried pushing him away but he just hold onto me more. Adding more strength on his arms. His hand on my chin went on the back of my neck, locking my gaze at him.
"What is it to you." I growled, even louder.
My wolf kept nagging at me inside but I'm fed up with this man's attitude and indifference!
"You flirt!" he whispered with emphasis of his anger. He drew my face closer to him that I felt our nose was almost touching but I did my best not to budge.
Here goes again that flirt accusation!
"Call me all you want, Jacob. I am not the one fucking non-stop all night." I spat.
Jacob growled and both of his hands went on the side of my face. I know what he will do! He will fucking make me kiss him!
With all my strength, I pushed him! Caught off guard, he released his hold and took a few steps backward from the impact of my push.
I was huffing, it's hard to get off his powerful grip and it took me a lot of energy just to make him back off a little.
Fuck! I need to be stronger than this!
"Don't you fucking kiss me with that filthy mouth!" I shouted, pointing my finger at him.
Jacob was looking at me, still with angered narrowing eyes. I thought he will back off but he stood up straight and looked at me with proud eyes.
"You possess physical strength, huh? Not enough though." he licked his lips after saying those words, looking at me like I'm a moth and he was the fire. Like I am no match at all.
I snarled and move into a stance. Getting ready to attack.
"You know nothing about me." I said, irritated.
I know I'm strong, I've fought with guys though not with an Alpha but that won't stop me on trying and take him down.
"Seriously, Lucianna?" the way my name touched his tongue as he said it almost made me groan, it sounded ugh no, shake it off. Shake it off!
I tilted my head on the side and lick my bottom lip which Jacob watched intently. I exhaled, "Don't come near me again or I will take you down." I warned.
Jacob looked at me with a straight face. He don't look like mocking what I said, but I know he was not taking me seriously either.
In the end, he sighed, shook his head, and then took a step closer to me. I almost made a step backward but halted when I remembered my resolve.
I growled and started attacking him. I threw a punch straight to his face which he dodge effortlessly, whistling as if shocked from my attack.
Jacob was about to grab my hand but I quickly backed off, throwing my leg in the air to kick the rib side of his body. He dodge it again using his arm and I know that even if he won't show it, my attack had a taste.
I backed off again when I saw his hand trying to catch my leg next. I can't let him take a hold of me or else it's game over.
"Oh, tough leg you got there." he said, chuckling.
Here comes his mocking. Fuck!
I felt my blood boiled and I growled at him again.
"Stop right there, Lucianna. You, growling at me is starting to get on my nerve."
I smirked, getting ready to another attack. "Good." then I brought my right feet back, and run towards him. I jumped and flew off the ground, my strength focused on my feet as I gave him another side kick.
When he dodged it, I took his arm that he used to dodging for my other feet for support. I jumped before he could hold my foot, then switched my strength on my fist, directing a straight punch at his face as I am landing down.
I thought he will be shock from the fast follow-up attack but I saw Jacob bit his lower lip, put his hand up in the air to meet my fist. His eyes turned red, having his alpha blood took over.
He grabbed on my wrist, pulled me sideways that made me lay on the table flat on my stomach. Jacob catches me as I was falling, snaking his arms on my waist before locking me flat on the table.
I can feel his whole body on my back, his weight keeping me in place. His hand still grabbing on my wrist, making my hand up my head.
"I said stop."
I was huffing loud and tired but I managed to chuckle below him.
"You… You used your alpha." I chuckled again. It only meant that I gave him a hard time on that part!
I heard his short chuckle, his chest vibrating on my back. "You're pretty fast." he admitted. I felt proud from that simple admission and took his word as a compliment. "But you're no match to me, honey."
I groaned when he put more of his weight on me, my breast are being flattened on the table.
"Get off." I groaned.
I felt his nose brushing on my back and I closed my eyes, biting my lip to stop the sensation to pull me to him again.
"Why would I?" he whispered. "This position makes it easy for me to place my filthy mouth all over you like this…"
His teeth bite on my shirt and ripped the poor fabric, exposing my skin to him. His mouth was quick as it suckled on the bare skin of my back, in the middle of my scapula.
I moaned but immediately bit on my lip to stop.
"N-No…"
I don't want this. Stop!
"You're mine." then he bit on my nape, making me groan lowly. "Try talking to that man you claimed to be friends with and I will make sure that you regret it."
His tongue started licking from my nape, to my earlobe, nibbling my sensitive spot there. I shouted my moan, shocked from the electrifying feeling his tongue sent me!
"N-No! Stop!"
"You like it. You like this," his hands left my wrist and I still couldn't move. My knees wobbled as his hand crawled to my arms, to the side of my breast. He touched my the side of my boob, its evident since I'm being flattened between him and the table. "Your breast looked popping. Come here."
Jacob held my waist with both hands and pulled me to face him.
The moment his eyes met mine, tears started to pool out of my eyes. I refrain from sobbing, I stopped myself from letting out low whimpers but my eyes could not stop crying.
Jacob was stunned as he looked at me and he stopped teasing me. His hands on my waist stayed but its strength was gone.
"S-Stop…" I placed my palms on my eyes, trying to cover my eyes. "Please. You're being unfair…"
I wiped my tears using the back of my palm, then covered my eyes with it. I don't want to see him. I don't want him to see me crying because of him.
I don't want him to see I'm getting hurt, that he won, that he hurts me so much.
I can't give him that pleasure.
I didn't hear anything from him. He stayed silent but I didn't peak and look at his reaction. I stayed with my position and decided to continue talking while he doesn't.
"If you want to fool around, don't come to me after. Just stay away from me, you hate me so go away. Leave me alone. Send me back to my pack. Send me away. Just don't come to me after fucking those girls all night."
I think I said everything I want and since I didn't heard anything from him again, I shoved his hands and escape his hold. Running away from him.
I don't know why I told him to send me away, I have nowhere to go but if he will, I will just accept my fate. I can't keep seeing him if he continues to act like this, act like a jerk.
I reached the living room fast but a hand catches my elbow, pulling me back.
The next thing I knew, I'm inside Jacob's tight embrace. His lips touching my forehead and I'm not sure if he meant to kiss me there or just a coincidence.
"Lucianna…" he whispered.
I sobbed loud. I don't know but it felt like his voice meant goodbye.
I don't have more time to listen to him say more painful words, I'm not up for another fight. I'm willing to accept my defeat now.
I'm willing to end my fantasy of having a mate forever. Of having my own family, my own home, more for me. I know I lost.
"Let's just stop this." I said, my voice cracking.
I pushed him away from me and ran fast to my bedroom, locking the door behind me as soon as I'm inside.
Jacob didn't followed me after that.
