Alpha Lake was turned on as he felt Audrey's soft lips on his. His wolf had taken over; Regal aggressively pushed forward to claim his mate. His. But he did not yield to it.
As hard as it was, he did nothing else, he just placed his lips on hers and did nothing more.
In as much as he wanted her, he was also allowing her to execute her plans, to show her real purpose of coming to his Pack, he was testing her, but, he was surprised to see the horrific reaction on her face; as if he disgusted her, and for some unknown reason, it hurt him and his wolf badly.
"You, Wh-What did you do?" Audrey managed to whisper in a low voice.
Her voice trembling from shock and excitement.
Audrey applauded herself, she did not believe she would be able to hold back Avery and not reveal herself to him in such an erotically critical moment, with the explosions of tingles she felt as his lips covered hers. It was overwhelming.
"Exactly what it was, Kitten." He grinned down at her now-red face.
Alpha Lake was barely hanging on the line, his lower member was viciously protesting against his pants, and he was very tempted to ravish the little human below him, but he pulled his face away from her.
He found her face cute as she blushed from anger and embarrassment, just like Audrey's face whenever she cried.
He shook his head and then looked into her green eyes, trying to make himself believe that the person below him wasn't Audrey.
Audrey was still in shock, not being able to respond to him.
"You escaped this time, Catherine. Let's see how you do next time." He brought his face down to hers and suddenly licked her bottom lip with the tip of his tongue like it was some cone of ice cream, and then quickly bounced off the bed and stood beside it.
"Get up and get out." He said without sparing her a glance. He walked into the bathroom to let the shower wash off his desire, he did not trust himself to stay longer in that room with her.
Alpha Lake knew he could not fight the mate bond as it grew stronger every second he was close to her. He decided to use her, for the sake of his wolf, he won't mark her...never.
She would just be a fling until he found his real mate, he did not have to bother about wooing her, human females were like toys in the hands of werewolves, they always succumbed to their charm and sex appeal.
That night, Audrey found it hard to sleep, she kept thinking over and over again why she did nothing when Alpha Lake covered her lips with his.
Was she regretting why she didn't take it further? Did she want it? Did she want him to go further? Did she crave his tongue inside the crevices of her mouth?
'Yes.' Avery whispered dreamily.
"Argh!!" She screamed into her pillow to muffle her frustration.
She tossed and turned, trying to find the right position for sleep to come. She needed to run away from her lewd thoughts.
"Selena?" Audrey called in a whisper, but she got no reply.
"Selena! damn it! Now is not the time to play deaf and dumb! I fucking need answers now!" She sat up in bed, breathing harshly in anger, and she was again, left with utter silence.
'Oh, come on, how bad could he...' Audrey blocked out Avery completely, she was in no mood for her annoying dialogue.
She wanted to speak to Selena, she had spent a whole day here and still got no direction whatsoever as to where her amulet could be.
She was getting frustrated, she needed to get away from here before she allowed herself to do something so grave she would regret it later.
'Audrey.' Audrey was standing in front of the pack house when she heard Selena's voice somewhere inside the house.
'Audrey.' The voice called again, as calm and soft as the first time. Audrey turned and went into the house, following the direction of the voice.
She walked through the general living room and went past the stairs that led to the Alpha's condo.
She went into a long passage that housed the beta's room and other entitled people who lived in the pack house, but she suddenly stopped when she saw a strange door at the end of the long passage.
She had never taken cognizance of it before, not like she was allowed in here when she lived there before.
This place was not her business. She slowly walked to the brown sturdy double door and pushed it open.
She carefully walked in and closed the door behind her.
'You called me, this is the best I can do for you and your mate. Help him find his peace.' Selena's voice rang out one more time and everywhere went silent completely.
She was gone, leaving Audrey to her devices.
Audrey looked around the room and saw that everything was covered with white material, the room looked like it hadn't been used for quite a long period.
'Audrey! Audrey!' Audrey sat up on the bed sweating.
"What do you want, Avery?" She sighed and rubbed her palm over her face.
She was not aware that was a dream, and here she was thinking Serena was finally giving her a clue about her amulet.
'Let's go for a run.' Avery hyped, jumping impatiently inside Audrey's head.
Audrey wanted to refuse but she knew it was long overdue, she had to run for her sanity. She looked at the wall clock, it was 2: a.m.
"Let's do it," Audrey replied, getting out of bed with dexterity, she needed to let her pent-up frustrations out, she needed to outrun the thoughts In her head.
She had a two-hour advantage before the Alpha woke up and went for his morning run.
She would be back before he woke up.
Sprinting into the forest, Avery ran with her tongue out, enjoying the freedom and breeze on her white furs. Avery suddenly stopped, making Audrey wonder why she did so.
"What's wrong, Avery?" Audrey questioned.
Avery pointed her snout towards two thick trees that were generously covered in strong vines.
"Oh," Audrey instantly remembered why it looked so familiar.
This was the place she promised herself to come to check out, but unfortunately, she never got to, because she had been locked up in the dungeon that same day by no other than Alpha fucking-Lake.
She wondered if the little bunny she saw was still around somewhere, but she hoped it wouldn't come out now, Avery would savagely tear it apart.
"Leave it, I'll check it out later. Let's go for a swim. That way!" Audrey chirped happily.
She missed this part of the Pack, at least no one judged her inside the forest.
Alpha Lake woke from a strange feeling, his wolf was oddly restless and demanded they went out for a run. It was just 2: 30 a.m. and he had never gone running at such time.
But he reluctantly got out of bed and pulled his black joggers up his waist, he did not bother putting on a shirt, he would still end up removing it, and no need to go back to bed, he was not going to get an ounce of sleep again, Regal won't allow it.
As he ran into the forest, he wondered what Audrey would be doing by the time he returned, he also wondered why Regal was heading toward the lake, he thought they were going for a run, and not swimming; besides, he never liked it there.
But the sharp scent of lavender and honey made him understand why Regal had been restless and was currently dashing to the Lake at full speed.
His ears perked up in anticipation, and his heart hammered in his chest out of excitement. He finally found her.
He increased his speed, wanting to reach the lake before she would disappear again.
Audrey was enjoying her morning swim, floating leisurely on top of the water.
She loved swimming, and that was when she fully enjoyed her naked alone time.
She used her magic to play some fun tricks with the water, she placed her palm on the surface of the water as she floated, causing strong ripples around her, she placed the other palm down and made the water spurt like geysers.
But her fun was suddenly interrupted when the strong scent of pinewood drifted into her nose, she quickly masked her scent, seized her actions, and then went under the water.
'What the hell was he doing out here earlier than usual?' Audrey wondered as she used her powers to create an oxygenated air bubble around her face which let her breathe under the water, she did not know for how long the Alpha was planning to stay here.
Alpha Lake was met with disappointment the moment he reached the lake, he looked around the trees that surrounded the lake but he could not detect the presence or the scent that had brought him here, instead, he smelt quite a familiar scent in the waters... Catherine.
Even though the water subdued her scent, he still comfortably traced where she was. Audrey knew she was busted when she saw him change back and walk predatorily into the water.
Alarm clocks went off in her head, she was naked! And he was naked! And he was coming...towards her!
She knew he could see her body under the water if he came too close, the after was quite clear. She stormed ideas in her head of how to stop him from getting closer to her.
Alpha Lake walked steadily toward Audrey, He was angry and dissatisfied that it was Catherine he found here and not his sweet-scented mate.
He wished it was his mate who was hiding naked under the waters, he would have ravished her there and then.
But it had to be the stupid human mate. Maybe, he would play with her a little since she had so made herself ready for him.
"Stop! Don't come any closer!" Audrey resurfaced from under the water.
She held her palm up signaling him to stop and used her other hand to cover her two full breasts which were spilling out from the sides, her lower body was beneath the water.
Audrey thought of materializing clothes on her body but that would expose her to the Alpha, the only choice she had was to hope that Alpha Lake got the message and backed away.
Audrey tried her best to keep her eyes away from Alpha Lake's naked chest.
"What are you doing here?" Alpha Lake asked skeptically.
How did she end up here by this time of the day? How did she find the lake? It was quite hidden and quite a far distance from the Pack.
This was her second day in his Pack, could she simply discover this place? On her own?
Audrey wanted to ask him why he was out earlier than usual but she shut her mouth, that would be the wrong question to ask, he would become suspicious of how she got to know that he normally goes out at a certain time of the morning.
"Turn around." She remembered there was a pressing issue at the moment other than why he was out early. she was still naked and vulnerable in front of him and needed to go away from him as soon as possible.
Alpha Lake paused, not because she asked him to. He was trying to get his rabid wolf under control.
He forced his eyes to look only at her face and not go any lower, he would not be able to hold Regal back if he saw those milky and bouncy breasts that were poorly protected by her slender hand.
"I said to turn around," Audrey repeated, louder this time.
She was trying her best not to look at his glistening muscular chest and abs, but it proved to be a hard task as her eyes betrayed her and looked down at his fit body, she felt a strong twitch between her legs and slowly rubbed her legs together.
"What if I don't?" Alpha Lake felt like he was under a spell as he stared into her mesmerizing green eyes.
Audrey wanted to say something witty but the moment she looked into his heated eyes, she melted, becoming speechless.
"Go away," Audrey said.
"The way you're looking at me says otherwise, little kitten." He whispered hoarsely.
Audrey visibly shivered from the sound of his voice; from her hair to her toes, not from the cold, but from the tingles she felt from the timbrel sound of his voice.
She knew she should do something; maybe, walk away, she had thought about just turning around and walking away and not caring if he saw her butt as she did so, after all, he was a wolf, and nudity was second nature to them.
But, she stood there, and even as she saw him slowly approach her, a small part of her brain told her to make a run for it, but the bigger part kept her standing in place and wishing for him to quickly close the space between them.
Audrey and the Alpha became transfixed looking at each other, Alpha Lake could not lie to himself any longer, with every step he took toward her, he convinced himself that she was not Audrey, he told himself that she was just another human that happened to look like her.
He hated that he still thought of Audrey even in this condition, which made him resolve in his decision.
He would have his way with Catherine, maybe that way, he would get over her and her resemblance to Audrey and also focus on looking for his mate.
The next full moon was approaching, and he hoped he found her before then.
"How about we make a deal, Kitten?" He asked her as he stood a breath away from her, their bodies almost touching.
Audrey still had a hand over her breast, but she did not know how long she could hold back her wolf. His proximity was making her go insane, turning her into butter.

"What do you want?" Her voice was more like a weak whisper, The determination was gone from her voice, and her face.
"A lot..." Alpha Lake traced her cheek with the back of his hand, he reached her jaw, hooked his pointy finger under it, and lifted her face so he could stare into those mesmerizing eyes of hers.
"A lot of things, Little Kitten." He whispered into her ears, sending shivers down her body.
