The Lycan Kingpin's Captive: A Baby For The Beast

My heart is sitting in my throat as I watch Alpha Nikolaos walk out of my bathroom. The bedroom door closes, and it’s only then that I lean against the large bathtub and breathe out a sigh.

I really thought I was about to be punished when the Alpha walked in here, but instead, I nearly slipped out of the darn bath and landed on my butt.

And he caught me - he caught me in those strong arms of his and I nearly swooned. He wasn’t dressed in a suit today, he wore a black t-shirt and jeans. But he still looked as handsome as ever - I swear, there’s just something about him, about his eyes.

When he caught me, his slicked-back hair slipped out of place and fell into his eyes - it felt like a movie moment, especially with the way he looked at me. The second I touched his chest, though, he let go of me as if I was a live wire, then started with his berating again.

This man is so mercurial; I could have sworn I saw lust in his eyes. But that would mean he finds me attractive, and I know that’s not possible.

Sighing, I dry off and walk to my closet to get into some warm, soft PJs. The nights have been cold lately, and the pain in my joints is even worse. The warm PJs and blankets help with the pain, but only so much.

Before I decide to get to bed, I walk over to the bedroom door only to see Josef looking like his favorite toy just got taken away. He looks up at me with a tight smile. “Evening, Miss Mia,” he says.

“Hey, are you okay?” I ask. His lips are a thin line and he nods his head tersely. “Are you sure? The Alpha was just in here and he…had a lot to say.”

Josef sighs. “Same with me. I warned both you and Ariadne that this would happen, but you wouldn’t listen. As usual, I got the slap in the face for it,” he says with little malice, but I can tell he’s hurt.

A wave of guilt crashes into me as I sigh. “I’m so sorry, Josef. I promise I’ll listen to your warning from now on; the last thing I want is to get you into trouble,” I say with sincere honesty.
