4: You can bite me anytime

After our little encounter in his room, Alpha all but dragged me down the stairs to the kitchen. As soon as we walked in, the room went silent.

“This is Dallas. You will treat her with respect.”

It didn’t slip my attention that he was looking directly at Jasmine. I could see the argument her eyes held but thinking better of it, she simply nodded and dropped her eyes to her plate.

A chorus of ‘yes Alpha’ and ‘welcome’ went around the table as we made our way to our seats. I wanted to sit as far from him as possible but he wasn’t having it. The only good thing about sitting next to him was the fact that I also got to sit next to Cordy.

She just gave off this warm vibe that the others didn’t. If anyone here were to accept me, it would be her.

Not that I was looking for acceptance, hell if anything, I was looking for a way out! I knew I couldn’t handle pack life and I wasn’t about to try and learn how now. I like being on my own, I like having my freedom, and most of all I like not having to answer to anyone.

“You can sit now, sweetie. I won’t bite you….well unless you want me to.”

Cordy said, her tone saucy and seductive as she winked at me then cracked up as Devin sent her a warning growl. I almost laughed at his reaction, everyone could clearly see she was joking. So, of course, I had to add to the fire a bit.

“Oh love, you can bite me anytime you want.”

I said, taking my seat. Even to my own ears, the sound was too husky, too seductive. I would have played it off with a wink and a chuckle if it weren’t for the loud throaty growl Alpha Daniels let out.

“No one, but I, will be biting you.”

I was slightly taken back by the conviction of his words, the absolute in his tone. Instantly I hated it.

“No one will be biting me, period.”

Locking eyes with him, I could see he saw my words as a challenge. One I knew he wouldn’t back down from, and that had me wanting to run from here as fast as possible. Ignoring the strange, unfamiliar pain that came with the thought of leaving. I only knew I had to find a way out of here as soon as I could.

“Ryker, dadd-”

Jasmine started but was soon cut off as Alpha Daniels snapped his head in her direction, glaring at her.

“You will not address me so casually.”

“But, Ry-I mean Alpha, you never had an issue with it before.”

I could hear the double meaning behind her words but didn’t care to think on what they meant. I figured, as an Alpha, he would have bedded at least half his pack by now. That’s how Alphas were. They fucked anything that could walk for shits and giggles.

“Oh please, silicone, he’s only told you like 80 billion times.”

I had to laugh at Cordy’s casual reference and use of my earlier name calling of Jasmine. It was too funny, and thankfully I wasn’t the only one who found it hilarious. As half the table laughed or snickered, I noted even Alpha Daniels turn and played his chuckle off as a cough.

“Devin you need to rein in your little pup! I’m sure daddy would love to hear about this.”

The smug smirk on her face told me that was a threat, she has something against Cordy. I could feel the rage coming off Devin in waves when he looked to his girl and she mouth for him to calm down.

“You threaten her, or any member of this pack again, and I promise you your father won’t hold such power. I didn’t give him that position to let him abuse it for your spoiled ways. If I find out that he did, I won’t hesitate to throw you both out.”
