Alpha Princess's Possessive Mate

Chapter 201 - Street Light

After we were done eating, Fang and I left the restaurant. I got to have a short glimpse of the glaring waitress and somewhere it made me smile. "By the way, will you be alright? You drank a lot today," I asked Fang as we exited the place. He felt oddly close to me than most of the people in my life, even though I hated that fact. 

Fang waited till he closed the door behind me like a gentleman before walking to my side, "I don't get drunk, little one." 

"Why?" I asked back innocently. I had barely had drinks in my life and the last time I had one, Fang had ended up kissing me. It was better that I did not drink today. But even for Fang, three pints of beer were not good to handle. "Do you even know how much this is?" I asked, raising my fingers up to show victory sign. 

Fang sighed and stopped walking while my feet walked ahead two steps before I came back to stand in front of him, still holding my two fingers up.

He looked at my fingers and I knew some witty reply was cooking up in his head but he refused to say it, "Two fingers." Fang pointed at my hand with his index and I dropped my hand to my side, just to raise it back again. Fang rolled his eyes before he started walking, "I am not a kid Selene I can take my drink well." 

"Oh, you called me Selene," I remarked immediately. 

"And what about it?" Fang asked in a bored tone, as if he was confronting a child. 

My feet ran up to him to walk beside him on the silent road, "You only do that when you are serious. I see, alcohol can make your mood foul." 

"If you don't stop talking, I will surely have a foul mood tomorrow," Fang said while he increased his pace. 

I did not say anything and continued to walk beside him. It was such a casual conversation we just had and I wondered when did things landed like this between us. Today's Fang was surely a different person. Had he possibly lost interest in me? No... he actually became possessive a while back. Maybe he was being regretful for kissing me without my consent. Yeah, right, he should be, I thought.

"Are you trying to irritate me with your thoughts now?" Fang asked and I couldn't help but present a crooked smile. 

"I am," I replied, "It was wrong and you should feel guilty for it." 

"Why?" Fang stopped again and this time I realised we were standing in the middle of the capital city, away from the market area. The crowd here was less than compared to the market or the restaurants. It was getting late in the night, as Fang and I had spent the entire evening at the restaurant discussing on what was to be done next. My mind had cleared up a lot with whatever magic he had done on me. I halted to look back at him when the street light flickered. 

It startled me as we were the only ones in the capital square. When the light was back, I turned to Fang and answered, "What do you mean, why? You should feel wrong for kissing me without my consent!" 

"Why?" Fang asked again, as if he had not heard me in the first place or he did not feel anything at all about the kiss. 

I rolled my eyes, "You don't do that with anyone. You should always ask for consent first-"

"Can I kiss you?" Fang cut in and my lips sealed themselves while looking at him. How can this man be so shameless and inconsiderate! I was not even done talking to him and he asked something so foolish in the middle of the capital city. Though I was worried we would be spotted here together, Fang was here carelessly saying anything which came to his mind. 

He raised his eyebrows as if in question and I folded me hands before taking a step away from him, "No you can't." 

"I knew you'd say that," Fang replied with a smile before he slowly and deliberately took a step forward. I gulped, not understanding what was going through his head. It made me wish I could have Fang's abilities during such times and he did not have any of those mind reading thing. 

"Don't come close," I took a offensive stance as I warned him while looking at his feet, "You are not allowed to kiss me." 

But Fang did not listen to me. He took another step forward and for every step that he took towards me; I took one step backwards. The desire in his eyes was burning bright and now that I stood so close to him, I could sense the fire which had ignited inside him. It wasn't just my wolf that was in heat but even Fang's wolf was in heat. The mate bond that he had marked me with was calling me towards him. Every inch that he came closer, I wanted to be closer as well. 

But it wasn't right. This feeling and everything that Fang was doing to slowly take claim of me was just not right. 

"Don't come any closer or," I said, and there was nothing to wager here. 

"Or what?" Fang said in a deep, husky voice, almost a whisper. Suddenly the street light flickered and went off. It was pitch dark where we stood, and yet I could see Fang's black eyes, which turned a light shade of golden. He raised his hand to brush the back of his fingers over my cheek, and the sudden touch made my skin cold. The next instance Fang caught hold of my wrist, which I had raised in front of me in a fighting stance and pulled me closer to him. "Or what little one?" 

My breath always seemed to get caught in my throat whenever Fang did something like this. Even though I had denied it a lot before, the mark had made it difficult to handle my thoughts around him. 

I wanted to touch him and feel how each of his bare muscle felt to my fingers. 

The time when Fang had marked me and kissed me flashed in front of me. My body was heating up just by being this close to him. Fang pulled me closer before circling both his arms around my waist, "Or what, Selene?" He leaned as he whispered and I could not even being to describe the war I was facing on my inside. My wolf wanted the entire being of the person standing in front of me while my brain constantly reminded me of my duties. 

"Please let me go," I said with little to no efforts of trying to get out of his hold. What was wrong with me! 

This was just not like me. It was like a different side of me was surfacing and I did not want that side to come up at all. I did not want my wolf to take over me. It was the worst-case scenario any werewolf would face. 

Fang looked at me for what felt like an eternity without doing anything and then let go of me. 

When his hand slowly released my waist, I did not move away from him immediately. It was like some unknown force holding me by his side. We continued to look at each other when Fang started leaning in closer to me and I realise the reality. 

I pushed him away immediately and cleared my throat. As if on cue, the street light flickered back on. 

I raised my head to look up at the light and then back at Fang, "I think we should get going." My eyes did not even dare to look at him in his eyes. Instead they randomly moved across his face. 

"Where should we get going?" Fang asked as if we were on some picnic and I pursed my lips together. 

The entire mood of the environment had flipped in second. "You go back to your village. I have work to do," I said before turning around and staring to walk towards the forest. I knew what I had to do and with mind being less cranky and on better thought line, I doubted I was going to fall prey to my emotions again. Even though I did not want to admit it, Fang had been a huge help in bringing back my mental strength and I did not even know what magic he did to do that. 

"I am coming with you," Fang said from behind me and I almost tripped on the plain ground. 

I turned around slowly to look at this idiotic and obnoxious man. "Do you want to die? You are the Alpha of Waterwoods. I hope you know how much you are hated in Winterwells."

Fang smiled before he chuckled. He took quick steps towards me and this time I did not move from my place. "Did I say I was coming to Winterwells?" 

"No? then where were you about to follow me?" I asked while folding my hands over my chest with an attitude. 

As much as I knew Fang could read my thoughts and I was sure he already knew I was going to bring the Cermesi princess with me. For that to happen, I had to go back to Winterwells. How in this world was Fang going to follow me? Especially with such heavy police security now. 

Fang stepped closer to me and smiled, "Not Winterwells Selene, I am coming with you to Greenland."
