Chapter 9:

It's been a week since I last saw him. So he kept his word that he is staying away, as agreed. But why is it killing me so bad? Everynight since that night in the woods, I've had to masterbate because he keeps robbing my fucking thoughts.

I wish he would have kept coming around. Why did he listen to me? I thought to myself. I can't go out of my way to find him. Because I don't know where to start. I can't let him get to my head. I'm not anyone's property. Remember that dumbass while you stand there and ogle at him the whole time you're around him. Smart huh? Lately the women at work have gotten meaner. I mean way worse than before. Throwing jabs my way and giving me snotty looks. It hasn't been easy.

So me and Clair are on the couch. It's mid day, when there was a knock on the door and Clair freezes. I've told her everything. I get up and answer the door. I've seen this guy before I've seen him Clair's job coming in just orders coffee and sits there for a while sipping the coffee.

He's got dark brown hair, and the prettiest pair of hazel eyes I've ever seen in my life. His name is Axel Black. I can't forget those eyes, but he's a man wolf. Yes. I had to introduce myself to her stalker. Why is he here? In my domain?

"What do you want?" I demand.

Axel cast his eyes down in a sign of submission like he's giving me control of the situation. "I'm just here to talk to my mate."

"You don't even know us." And I slammed the door in his face.

"Octavia relax please. Let him in. Leave him alone." She smiled at me.

"Ok" I said to Clair, before I turned around and completely opened the door for him to come in, I looked Axel in the eye and said "you better not try anything with her, no means no, and i dare you to lay a filthy hand on her..... raise your hand on her in any kind of way ill kill you myself."

He grinned at me "yes ma'am" and followed me into the living room. "I know you already know about Orpheus because I heard the rumors. Do not mention his name around me, don't even think about trying to call him to come get me. Me and your alpha have had an agreement. Don't try it. I'll slice your throat." With that I went to the kitchen to cook something to eat.

We are having pasta for supper. It took all I had to not exclude him in supper. I shouldn't be feeding him, but I am. He's sweet, I know. I've had a few conversations with him at the café. I didn't realize it was getting this far. He doesn't seem to be phased by my fairy blood.

"Hey, Octavia, can I talk to you about this too?" Axel asked, getting louder, looking over at me.

"Yea, suppers ready. Come get your plate, and we will talk." I said.

He smiled, "yes ma'am, I don't turn down food that's offered to me."

We all laughed at that one. Like I said though Axel is not that bad, or so he seems. He's kinda cool. I look at him. "So my best friend is your mate?" I ask to make sure I heard him right earlier.

"Yes...." Axel started.

I cut him off with, "You hurt her I'll kill you, fucker, dead, not a care in the world."

Clair looked at me incredulously, "Octavia!"

"He should know up front." I eyeballed him. "Better to know now than later right?"

"Yes ma'am." He said as seriously as he could. He looks a little scared.

I grinned. "Well good." I half laughed. "We are starting out on a good foot then."

"You've known each other for a long time haven't y'all." Axel said.

We all sat around the table in the middle of the din."Maybe after we eat I'll show you the other 2 family members." Clair said laughing.

"I don't know Clair, Hercules might scare him." I say laughing too.

Axel looked at me and it looked like he gulped, I'm not sure. "What do you mean, scare me?" He furrowed his brows.

"You'll see one day. Maybe" I said, laughing some more, absent-mindedly. "Or today whichever. I don't know."

When I focused back, we all started talking about random stuff. He's nice. After we got done eating we started watching a romance movie. I haven't been paying any attention. I still don't even know what he wanted to talk about. After the movie we let Hercules and Patience out.

Hercules loved Axel. Although he growled anytime Axel got within arms reach of me or Clair or even gave Patience too much attention. It was cute. We have them outside now.

"Go get it!" Axel said, throwing Hercule's ball. Then Patient's walked up snatching his pants like she was something big.

"It looks like they like you." Clair said laughing.

Hercules came barreling back so fast he couldn't stop in time and plowed Axel over, and down on his ass. We all laughed really hard on that one.

I went and sat on the porch, and Clair walked over to Axel to help him up. He snatched her down on top of him and kissed her on the lips with so much love, it almost affected me.

So I got up and sat on the couch inside and zoned out again. Because I have a face stuck in my head again. I can't even have a conversation without thinking about his hands on me. It's turning me on again.

I think about how it would feel to have his hands on my breast, my clit, in my pussy, touching me, kissing me, trying to kiss every inch of my skin. My pussy got wet just thinking about it.

I shook my head. I think about what Clair told me. You're 20, still young. You shouldn't be a virgin anymore. Maybe that's why I keep thinking about sex. Maybe I should sleep with someone so I can get my mind off of it. The king popped back into my head. My king. I gasped what am I thinking?

Then all of a sudden they walked back in, snapping me out of my weird thoughts. They are hand in hand, smiling, laughing, and just plain looking so cute together. It's like Charlie never existed.

They sit down on the couch and we go back to watching movies. I chose the movie this time, and I chose an action movie. To be honest I can't even focus on this movie.

My mind wandered back to that alpha king again. His hair, his eyes, his lips. I wanna feel it on my skin. Why am I thinking like this? I don't get it. Well maybe I get the attraction. He's good looking, but all alphas are. I don't even know the man's name and he's stuck in my mind.

Axel interrupted my train of thought. "I know what will help you." Glancing at me looking a little worried.

I pull myself out of my thoughts. "With what? What do I need help with?"

"You need to accept your king, Luna, your mate needs you, you..."

I cut him off with a look that could kill. "I'm not your Luna. I haven't even found my soul mate. I'm not your kind. He's not my mate."

Clair looked at me, "what is he talking about?"

"His alpha has tried to stake a claim on me. Saying I'm his mate. Fairies and werewolves can't love each other. They are mortal enemies. Your kind kills my kind."

"You need to take your place as queen. He's already marked you. Besides that's a legend, it's not real." Axel claimed.

"He has done no such thing! And what do you mean legend?" I've had enough. "No, just get out of my house!" I shouted, slapping my hand on the coffee table, I stood up and pointing to the door all at the same time. "Now!" I screamed.

Axel cast his eyes away in submission, got up leaving us behind staring after him as he walked to the door, he turned back long enough to bow and say, "Luna" and left. Just like that the door shut behind him and he was gone. Why would he be calling me that?

"Octavia, your eyes are glowing purple." Clair said, looking scared.

I inhaled quickly when I saw my reflection in the front window. What in the world? What is going on? I've never seen that happen before. I then looked at a picture of me and Clair hanging on the wall.

My heart started pounding as I ran out the door, Hercules right behind me, and we disappeared into the woods. I ran and ran looking for Damon. Running back to that town. I need him. I kept running for hours until I gave out, tired, and I collapsed to the ground.
