Chapter 17

~*~*~

*DEREK's POV*

For some reason, I wasn't angry even though she was blatantly disrespecting me as her alpha. Nor do I want to scold her, but seeing that things would get complicated if the others misunderstood my intentions. I came to a conclusion to warn her for now.

My eyebrows furrowed, and I locked eyes with her. "Listen here, you little viper, I don't know if SunDale Pack didn't teach you manners while speaking to your alpha. But we don't do that here. Next time you disrespect me like this, I'll be punishing you personally."

"Oh really? How though?"

"What?" I replied in disbelief.

Is she crazy? Why is she provoking me like this in front of others?

I stepped a little closer, leaned towards her as I carefully inspected her seductive purple eyes. Everyone was expecting what I'd do, but even I was in a bit of a daze for a moment.
