I've been trying to figure out how to tell her we are indeed mates. Telling her that we are mates when something is going on with her own body isn't the right time. She has no clue what we did that blissful night of lovemaking. I know when she's in a turmoil or afraid. I had to leave her alone because I sense it was what she wanted, and it took everything I had to abide by her wishes. Not that she strayed deep enough so her traces were gone, or did she block me telepathically. I never make a sound when I'm probing through her mind.
After centuries after centuries almost a millennium, I still can't resist her short temper, lack of obedience, flawless skin, her view of life, her confidence, and her flirtatious ways. When I sensed her here the connection grew stronger by months and to a point where I can decipher all her moods and changes in her body. I had to make sure it was her, so I sent Tyler to track her down because all evidence is high tailing her way. He found her on her birthday with some human boy. She looked more erotic and seductive than ever. She wasn't fully aroused by the human I've noticed. When she saw me, I saw that excitement and annoyance in her expression. It took everything I had not to kill the kid which would drive her farther away.
When she fainted a few days ago I panicked and had to pick her up running to the clinic myself. I was char with a few burn marks. Everybody in the office was anxious for their alpha knowing when it comes to Annabel I don't think straight. I knew Officer Nina the vampire newbie didn't know her and heard tales of who she is and represents to me. I should have never stepped out of line and slept with the girl, but she had some sort of crush on me it was cute that she does, but it would only be a no-strings-attached kind of thing. We did happen once. It was a full moon and she just happens to be at the office late and we had our moment in my office. I guess she was getting a bit attached since she's always in my line of sight. She is a beautiful girl and had a stunning body with a witty personality. The usual thing all guys tell a female they already went to bed with and want to cut it short.
In my thoughts, an aromatic scent found its way to my nostrils. That's when I realize Annabel scent and that's all that caught my attention. I was sitting on Tyler's desk talking to him but when my thoughts wandered off.
She came into sight wear a mini jeans skirt and a pink tank top and pink and white Nikes with her luscious hair in a ponytail and her legs were on display not to mention her firm flat sexy stomach. She had a pink purse on her shoulders, and I watch her as she walks over to Nina and mutters her apology.
"Damn now I know why you go head over heels for that girl," Tyler said tapping my shoulders. "Hey that novice you hired is pretty good you know she took down five robbers and a thief in one week and she's sexy too, mmm."
I just growl at him and he sat down.
"Damn, Bell why the hell are you dragging me in here for? You know this place makes me nervous. Where is that stud you can't keep your hands off of," said a girl with a curvaceous figure and cocoa skin who's wearing shorts that fit her ass perfectly with some stripper heels, and a belly piercing.
"Damn Veet you want the whole building to know we are here if you're not seeing how we are dress right now. We look like damn strippers readying to turn ourselves in," Annabel said nudging her.
"Well I don't mind sexy over there that's looking my way," she waves at me.
"That's the alpha," Annabel said annoyed.
"Oh, the one you have a thing for," she laughs.
"For Pete's Sake why not announce it. You can be a damn pain in the ass sometimes. I'm sure as hell know he heard our conversation," Anna said coming my way.
"Go get her Tiger," Tyler laughed.
As they approach me, I put on my professional face and her friend haven't stopped smiling she was a cheery person it appears.
"Hey, Dane, this is my friend Veet. Veet this is Detective Dane the head of the department," Anna said as I shake Veet's hand.
Veet pulls her to the side and whisper, "Dear god he is so hot. He's so hot I think I'm the one on fire right now damn you mean to tell me you stop hitting-"
"Anyway, she has some information that would be useful to whoever you're looking for and if it's me just know I'll be royally pissed and will be going for blood, just saying right now," Annabel shrugs.
"So, I was walking to my bio lab class when I heard these two girls talking about experimenting on becoming a vampire so they can get the full experience of tasting blood. No offense but why would they want that?"
"None taken, continue," Anna signal.
"So, I glamor one of them placing a tracking charm on her. They were at the spot where they found the last body. I know it isn't much but if my girl going down, I have to have her back on anything no one accuses her of something she did not do. She has an alibi. She was with me even if you found her DNA, she was with me," Veet said firmly and both Tyler and I stared at her with curiosity.
"By the way, I don't think that blonde likes me. I guess I really mess up last night if only I could remember. Hey, Tyler hasn't seen you since forever how things are?" Anna asked cheerfully.
"You really don't remember anything?" he asked.
"Should I? I'm guessing it had something to do with you," she narrows her eyes at him.
"Babes remember VIP seating maybe we'll have some male stripper in our private room-shaking it for us," Veet said with keenness.
I frown at Anna who said, "She's kidding. I'll come back later if I have anything new to tell you; by the way, I love the new look it fits your personality. Edgy, kempt, sexy as hell, and so dangerous you look superlative," she said without thinking by the look on her face.
Veet cleared her throat and said, "We have to go meet our boyfriends," she emphasizes.
"Huh?" Anna asked confused. "Oh, right let's go, later Dane," she said.
They were walking off and I heard Veet whisper, "Girl you were flirting with that hot alpha wolf."
"I was not. I just compliment him on how he's dressed," Anna said in her defense.
"You totally were, you look so damn sexy and I want to throw myself at you right now and take you right there. You should have heard the purr in your tone geez you were turning me on and I'm straight," she laughed.
"Damn, I really was, I didn't notice," Anna said looking back and flushed and quickly walk out.
"Damn she still has the hots for you. You might actually have a chance; well you always had a chance since you know what happens with the two of you. I feel sorry for you man, I couldn't have done what you have done," Tyler shook his head.
"It was an ultimatum and I pick the latter. When you find a queen for yourself, you'll be shocked by the things you would do to please her," I told him.
"No offense but I sure as hell don't want to go through what you had been going through. It was hell seeing you like that back then, and I sure as hell don't want to see it on me. Her witchy friend was hot, and she smells of human."

Three in the morning when the building was almost empty from officers, I figured I might as well finish some paperwork. That's when I sense Anna arousal close by. She was in deep thoughts of something or someone who turns her on and I held onto the table to keep from groaning then the knock on the door came.
"Not now," I said clenching my teeth.
"It's me silly," a soft giggle came from behind the door.
Damn it. It was Annabel why was she here. The door opens and the scent of her arousal captivates me and a strong whiff of alcohol mix with mint was there too.
"You're drunk," I frown trying to push back my arousal for her.
"Nope. Don't get drunk silly. I'm immortal," she giggles again moving closer beguilingly. "I was thinking while I was out and a thought came to me, why did you leave me alone in the bed when I woke the following morning. I mean I thought I was laudable enough for you to at least be there when I woke up. You were gone and I felt so humiliated and frightened knowing that your people would know the next morning that we bedded. But at least I could say he stayed in bed with me and held me that would have made me feel better and not like a slut who just throws herself at you because you had power ahead of you," she sucked in a breath.
It pains me to see her like so vulnerable child I wanted to reach out to her, but I could still perceive her arousal. When her gaze came to mine, I realize it was her, but it wasn't her fully something else is going on behind those crazy shade of blue eyes. She moved swiftly in front of me, now I was staring at her belly button and her flushed skin.
"I swear every time I see you it's like you stir up some desire spots inside me and no matter how I try wrapping it up it just gets worse, gosh you can turn me on like no other," she whispered.
"Oh, so that human boy didn't stir you the right way," I said with disgust.
She just smiles at my rage and said, "He's just an experiment, he means nothing to me I was just trying to fill the gap that only you can fill up," she said breathing on my face.
She tried to cover the alcohol with gum it didn't work. Her hands were on my thighs and her butt was poking out and her breast was in full view.
"Have you been with any man since you left?" I asked.
She hesitates but her eyes never left mine, "Um, yes recently."
"Which one?" I demand and ease away from me.
"Four years ago, I met Ryan," she said dropping her gaze.
"Fuck babe. You know I will never think less of you," I took her arm and place her on my lap.
Bad move you should have let her stay where she was.
"No, I've tried to feel something, but I always end up turning away from the opportunities to sleep with him. When I finally decide I will try again you showed up looking sexy and dangerous and the second-guessing began, again," she explains.
I smile at her as she twiddles her thumbs. At least her provocation was going down. My finger brushes her thigh accidentally and she shivers sucking in a breath. She gave me a glazed overlook and kissed me. To my surprise, I was kissing back, and the wolf stirs happily as he welcomes her back.
Missed you too, she giggles softly in my head.
Her lips were soft and moist. She was kissing my upper lip moaning. Her mouth moves on to my neck and she licks it in circular motions, and I shudder. There was a knock on the door opening to reveal Tyler wide-eyed staring back at me and I could see Nina. She couldn't see me through. Tyler just winked and smiled closing the door.
"Anna," I said softly, and she answered with a muffle. "You're drunk you can't do this; you'll regret it in the morning."
"I never regretted anything with you," she said angrily pulling away from me.
