Mated To The Ruthless Alpha King
New Home

Damon Kalesto was sitting on a small stool in his living room. His eyes were glued to something orrather someone who had taken his breath away in one swift motion. He studied her every feature,from the long lashes on her eyelids down to the almost unnoticeable pimple at the side of her lips.He knew that it was a creepy thing to do, but he couldn't help himself. She was just too beautifulnot to admire.

He noticed everything including how her small, button nose twitched whenever she shifted and howher lips protruded into a pout every once in a while...his eyes caught every single detail andimprinted it all in his mind. Everything about her, he wanted to know. Everything she did before shemet him, he wanted to know. Everything.. just everything.

He had been entrapped since the very moment he laid eyes on her. Her blue eyes had pulled him inwith ease and he fell deep into her abysses. He knew exactly what that dazed, inebriated feelingmeant...she was his mate.

After what happened ten years ago, he had been so sure that his chances of ever having a mate waszero, but now, it was shocking to see that he actually had one...not that he wanted one in the firstplace.

The thing was, he wasn't very fond of the mate thing. He thought of it as an unfortunate string thattied together two random souls that aren't really meant to be. Plus, nobody had the right to tell himwhat to do...not even the Moon Goddess who created him. He alone must decide his fate...who tolove and who to despise, who to protect and who to kill.

However, now that he got a firsthand taste of the mate bond, he had a totally different view. It wasthe first time in a long while since he had ever felt so intrigued and attracted to a woman. Whenthey had been staring at each other, he didn't want the experience to end, but then, before he couldeven open his mouth to speak to her, she had blacked out.

He was angry at the fact that he didn't get to hear her voice. He was angry at the fact that he hadbeen living in such luxury while she had been living under harsh conditions. And lastly, he was angryat the fact that she was filled with cuts and bruises all over her body. All he was desperately waitingfor, was her confirmation that the Human Trade workers had done this to her. That was all heneeded to wipe them all out in the blink of an eye. From now on, anyone who dared to touch, hurtor even look at her, would feel his wrath.

"Damon~" Alexis; one of his sex slaves, came bouncing into the room. Damon casted an irritatedglance at her for a split second before placing his full attention back on his mate. She pouted butdidn't say anything about it.

"I have never seen a werewolf who is mated to a human." She started to say, whilst eyeing Sarahwith a disgusted yet envious glint in her eyes. "How is this even possible?”

Damon clenched his jaw. Who did she think she was to question him when he too didn't even knowthe answer nor did he want to know! He didn't care about why and how, he just knew that she washis mate...nothing else mattered.

Alexis jolted as soon as she saw his deadly glare. That look in his eyes only meant danger and sheknew it. Without another word, she shuffled out of there with her tail between her legs. But as shewas turning the corner, she mumbled something that she thought Damon didn't catch. "Don't comecrying when you meet the same doom like ten years ago..."

But Damon had heard every word and he was livid. He had the urge to crush her face with his barehands but he didn't dare to ruin his moment with his mate. Alexis could stay for later...after all, shecan never leave this house so he had all the time in the world to rip her to pieces.

An hour after solely sitting and watching her, Sarah finally stirred awake. She opened her eyes to anunfamiliar ceiling, the fresh air drifting into her nose feeling very foreign to her senses. Bright lightwas escaping through the window and touching her skin delicately, leaving it glistening beforeDamon's onlooking eyes.

With all these unfamiliar things taken into consideration, Sarah soon realized that she was not in hercell.

She jolted into a sitting position and was about to turn her head in the direction where Damon wassitting, when she felt his warm breath tickle the skin of her neck. She immediately stiffened, breathhitched and heart beat quickening.

Damon's nose nuzzled into her, sniffing as it travelled along her neck. "Hmmm," he hummed againsther, basking in her delicious lotus flower scent. The first thing he wanted to do, was to ask her howshe got the bruises on her skin, but he tried to refrain from doing so. It was better to make her feelcomfortable first before asking her anything about herself nor what happened at that dungeonWhen silence reigned for too long, he took one last whiff of her scent then looked up at herquestioningly. Seeing the anxious look on her face and the dark shade of red that coated hercheeks, he leaned back a bit and reluctantly pushed his stool further outwards to give her somewell-needed space. He was heavily irritated by the far proximity but he willed himself to bear with itfor her sake.

Sarah finally released the breath she had been holding and turned to look at him slowly, her mindfilling with dread. His voice already gave her an idea of who he was, but when she turned andlooked at him for a second time, she couldn't help but feel bombarded by his unmatchable beauty.Just like before, she unknowingly paid no attention to the fact that he knew she was staring at himand continued to do so on impulse, feeding her desire to capture his features into her memory."Speak," Damon demanded, his nonchalant, authoritative tone instantly grasping her attention. Hewas getting tired of waiting for her to say something when it seemed as if she wouldn't be speakinganytime soon. He desperately wanted to hear her voice and as such, curiosity was about to devourhim.

Sarah mentally slapped herself. She was so busy ogling him that she had completely forgotten thatshe was in an unfamiliar place. "Where am 1?" She asked frantically, finally taking a glance aroundthe room. The house was more large and spacious than anything she had ever seen before, so herawe was bound to have been at great heights.

She was sitting on a grey couch that could probably be passed off as a bed because of how largeand comfy it was and in front of her, a glass table separated it from another of its size and colour.On the grey walls, there were numerous paintings of wolves and such, and the shelves to her leftwas filled with a mix of books and trophies. The space seemed somewhat empty but Sarah couldn'thelp but be mesmerized despite that.

"This is your new home." Damon told her, watching her intently as her eyes circulated. He definitelyliked how impressed she looked. If it took only this to wow her then he could only imagine howhappy she'd be to see the rest of the mansion.

"My home? Why am I here? Did something happen after I passed out? Have I done somethingwrong?" Her awe was gone and she was getting worried now. She didn't know what was happeningnor how great of a problem she was in. "Whatever it is, I'm sorry! I was just feeling a little dizzy atth-"

Damon pressed his finger to her lips without hesitance, halting her rant immediately. "I am theAlpha King and I chose you. From now on, you are my possession, mine to keep and mine toprotect. You will stay by my side, Sarah..where my eyes can always reach you."

Tingles sprouted at her lips and spread across her skin, then once again, her heart took speed.
