THE ALPHA'S VIRGIN SLAVE: Submit Alpha Ian's curse - Chapter 388: Chapter 388

Lui's POV
I knocked on Akira's door a few times, waiting for her response.
I knew she was in by her scent, yet she wasn't responding or opening the door.
"Akira, it's me," I said loudly.
She obviously could tell that it was me because she could also pick up my scent.
When I heard heavy footsteps approaching in a rather slow manner, I smiled.
I didn't want to look annoyed or upset in any way.
The door opened, and she faced me.
I was so shocked that I had to keep quiet.
Her hair was a total mess, and she was in a robe that was hanging low on one side of her shoulder, showing more skin.
Her eyes (pupils) were red, and her face looked pale.
"Lui," she whispered, then smiled with her fangs showing.
"Are you sick?" I asked in concern.
"Not sick, handsome; I'm hungry," she answered in a low, seductive tone.
I widened my eyes as my heart picked up.
Handsome? Was she calling me that now? Not that I was complaining, but it sounded a little fluttering and funny.
Human blood was abundant in our pack clinic as well as in the hospital. Why wasn't she mind-linking anyone to bring her some?
She moved her fingers to her lips, brushing them gently as I swallowed hard.
Why was she acting sexy when she looked so sick? I wondered to myself, then sighed softly.
"I'll go and get a blood pack for you; please wait for me," I said seriously, then froze when she grabbed my hand.
"It's okay, Lui, so come in already," she answered softly.
"But I can rush and get a pack in just a few…." I cut my sentence short when she placed her finger on my lips and shook her head.
"It seems you want to offer me blood; then how about yours?" she asked with a wide smile.
I pulled my hand away and pressed my finger on the dimple on her cheek.
"Fine," I answered, then dropped my hand and swept her off her feet.
"Excuse me," I said while I walked in and went straight to the living room.
It had been ages since I stepped foot in the house, but it was good to see how most things still looked the same.
I sat on the sofa with her on my lap and then moved my arm in front of her.
"Roll up my sleeves," I said simply, since I was putting on a shirt.
She looked at my hand and chuckled softly.
"No," she answered.
I was about to ask her why when she moved her hand, grabbing my chin and making me turn my head to the side.
I instantly took in a sharp breath when she leaned in, brushing her nose against the side of my neck.
I swallowed hard as my heart began to beat crazily.
When I felt her fangs graze my skin, I closed my eyes.
It wasn't a marking she was doing but feeding.
Although werewolf blood wasn't pleasant to most vampires, to those mated, it was rather delicious. That's what I read in one of the recorded files that was kept in the pack's library.
"I was so shocked to see that Olivia had returned. She told no one, and I'm wondering why. If not for seeing Dusk and Micah walking close to the pack house, I wouldn't have known," Xiao's voice sounded close by.
She quickly moved from my lap and looked at me in shock.
Her eyes were back to their usual color.
"Please stand up," she said, quickly grabbing my hand.
"This way," she said when I stood up.
I reluctantly followed her into the room that was filled with her scent.
It was definitely her bedroom, and because of that, I was beginning to feel somewhat uneasy.
I stood looking around while she locked the door.
"Do you realize that your parents will know that I'm here?" I asked seriously without looking at her.
"So what? It's not like we are fucking in my room. Moreover, even if we were fucking, it's not like it's a crime when we are mates," she answered.
I quickly looked at her with raised brows.
Her eyes were back to a shade of red, and she was facing me with a smile.
Something was beginning to seem off because this was the first time I was hearing her say such careless words.
"Should I seduce you into taking your shirt off, or are you going to do it yourself, handsome? Your call," she said, then pulled the belt of her robe and took it off.
She walked to a couch that was in the corner of her room and sat down facing me.
She was in lacy black underwear while her top was bare.
I didn't want to check her out in any way, but I couldn't help myself.
I found myself looking at her carefully from head to toe.
Sweat was forming on my forehead, and I was getting aroused just by looking.
She seriously stood up and walked to where I was, moving her hand to my shoulder.
"No, she's not in her right mind," my wolf warned.
When she began circling me, I started thinking of a way to push her away without making her angry.
I wanted her badly, but something about her wasn't right. It was as if she were a different person.
"Won't you take off your shirt, Alpha?" she asked in a low, sexy voice.
"I will," I answered as my voice broke at the end of my sentence.
I slowly undid my buttons and took off my shirt, throwing it down.
"There," I said in a whisper.
She stood in front of me and moved her hand to my arm, slowly sliding it up to my shoulder.
"Lean in for me, please," she whispered as I found myself doing just that.
This time, I felt her warm breath against the side of my neck and her fangs pierce my skin.
I held in a groan when I felt pain, which slowly subsided.
I knew how vampires had the ability to give pleasure just by sucking from a certain person, and that was what I was trying hard to fight.
No matter how turned on I was getting, I wasn't going to lay my hands on her.
When she jumped on me, wrapping her legs around my lower waist, I quickly held onto her in shock.
Her soft breasts and hard nipples were pressed against my skin, and it was getting hard to keep resisting the urge to do more than what she wanted me to.
"Keep calm," came my wolf's command.
"Easier said than done," I responded, then took a deep breath and relaxed, making sure that my mind was fixed on other things besides sex.
Rivers and streams were a sight to behold, and that's what I was thinking of over and over.
When she pulled back and looked at me, she had a surprised expression on her face, and her eyes were back to normal.
"Oh my God, put me down," she said loudly.
When I did, she quickly grabbed the belt from the floor and rushed into a room that looked like a bathroom.
I slowly picked up my shirt and put it on, feeling confused about how she was acting like that.
I wore my shirt and went on to sit on the couch, waiting for her to come out.
After a few minutes went by, the door opened, and she came out. This time her appearance looked much better. Her hair was nicely combed, and her robe was properly fixed.
"Do you feel better?" I asked softly, then crossed my legs and moved my hands to cover my erection.
"Lui," she called in a low tone.
"Yes," I answered.
"How could you stand me in such a state?" she asked, confusing me.
"I don't understand," I answered honestly.
"You saw how I was acting unusually. How could you stand me?" she asked.
Before I could respond, she continued to speak.
"Whenever I am thirsty and don't feed in time, I not only see people or others as a bottle of water. My character changes into something else, which I hate so much," she said, and then moved her hand to her arm, rubbing there gently.
"It gets unbearable and unpleasant because I can't control it, and at times I don't remember well what I was doing. I don't know why I'm the only one like this; that's why I mostly keep away from anyone who isn't my parents," she said furiously.
I heard her loud and clear, yet the only thing that ran through my mind was whether she had shown anyone this side besides her parents.
"Has anyone ever seen you in this state?" I asked seriously.
"Yes, Dusk...,"
"That fucking Beta did?" I asked in a loud growl.
I was feeling so damn pissed off over her words.
"No, I meant to say Dusk said Micah told him how I acted differently one day when I got hungry," she answered as I glared at her coldly.
"I don't even talk to Dusk like that; we only greet each other. The reason he said that to me was that he was trying to show a few warriors that he could talk to a girl," she said as I folded my arms.
I felt like breaking his fucking face after hearing her words.
That bastard never spoke to she-wolves or any girls; that's what I knew. But here I was, hearing how he was talking to my mate.
"Lui, it's not like that. We don't talk to each other," she said as I sighed heavily.
"Okay, I understand," I answered softly, then stood up and walked to where she was, standing in front of her.
"You rest; I'll come and check up on you tomorrow," I said, then leaned in and kissed her head.
I walked to the door and opened it. Before I could walk out, I looked at her and smiled falsely.
I no longer felt aroused or hard because the only thing I could think of was hitting Dusk.
I walked out of the room and went to the living room, where I found Xiao and Mika.
They both sat on the sofa, looking at me seriously.
"I know I have a lot to explain, but for now, what I can say is that you can tell by my scent that nothing happened between us. She was hungry, and when I came by, she decided to feed,” I said and then seriously looked at Xiao.
“If it's not too much to ask, I want to talk to you, Sir, now,” I said seriously as my wolf pulled through to show his presence.
Xiao looked at Mika with a concerned expression and then stood up.
“It’s just a friendly talk, so walk with me,” I said simply and then walked out with him behind me.
When I was sure that we were far from his house, I stood and faced him. He immediately stopped walking as well.
“Akira, she was hungry, and she acted unlike herself. To be honest, she turned into this seductive, bold mate. Has she always been like this whenever she is hungry?” I asked seriously.
“Seductive? Never, but demanding, rude, and somehow disrespectful. We like to think of that side as another part of her. She rarely acts that way because she can go on for a few months without feeding. But when she gets thirsty and doesn't feed in time, she changes,” he answered.
“I see,” I whispered.
"We don't talk about it much because she hated herself whenever we did. She usually feeds even when she isn't hungry at times to keep herself from acting up. But there are times when she is excited, sad, angry, or stressed that she forgets to take care of herself," he said.
"Look, Lui, she has never shown that side to anyone except us and Micah. And with Micah, it was for a brief moment. When she mind-linked us, we rushed to her side and took her home, so you don't have to feel bothered and uncomfortable," he said as I laughed softly.
Uncomfortable? Not at all. I wasn't feeling that way.
I actually felt relieved that she had never shown that side to anyone besides those mentioned.
Also, I was looking forward to that side of hers when we would officially mate and start staying together. But for now, I had to apologize for keeping our relationship a secret.
I bowed my head and lowered my eyes.
"I apologize for hiding the fact that we are mates.I wanted us to first get to know each other before we told everyone," I said softly, then looked up when he chuckled.
"Mika told me everything, and to be honest, I was happy. You will lead this pack well and protect our daughter with your very being, and I trust that," he answered as I smiled.
"Also, I wanted to ask you something," he said.
"Okay," I answered seriously.
"When are you going to have a real conversation with your Beta? The whole pack knows how you guys don't talk or work hand in hand," he said, then continued.
"When you returned, he went to human territory with Olivia and Micah and stayed there as if he was scared of you, but he recently returned. So how about you get to know each other and try to work things out before you take over as acting Alpha?" he asked.
"I will do just that; thanks for the advice," I answered.
He smiled and then moved his hand to my shoulder, patting it gently.
I hated the idea, but he had a point.
