RUBY DOUGLAS
Those dreams came back taunting me. This felt like one of those dreams. Was this what it felt like is die tesave f good, way too good to be true.
Dreams did come true one way or the other because here I was in one of the rooms in the luxurious mansion hoang ins with our new King in a ravenous kiss.
My heart rapped against my ribcage as Gavin hoisted me from the floor to match his towering height securing my time tight around his hot, hard, and delicious body. Taking, tasting, seeking with his tongue sliding, teasing inside my most as the kiss deepened into a fiery heated, passionate one. He tasted so incredibly good of coffee and a dream come ime So
Sweet
It was everything and way better than I’d dreamt my first kiss would be like but nothing in my wildest fantasy wolte mate me suggest it’d be with our King
He wrapped a possessive arm around my waist, hauled me closer to his hardened frame deepening the saving my mouth with his lips, his tongue, his teeth
A moan fired from my lungs.
My fingers seemed to have a mind of their own because they found their way to his redhead, raked firongi, and ugged the silky strands in sheer delight.
Gavin’s lips left mine to wander the supple of my neck, nibbling softly at the crook of my neck.
No! He wasn’t about to mark me, no. He wasn’t my mate. He certainly would live in regrets afterward
As though reading my mind, he squashed my expectations by abrupdy stopping the sweet assault on my neck, his gaze holding me transfixed. Reeling nerves trying to calm.
My heart thrashed wildly as I anticipated whatever would fall through his parted sensuous lips. Smaidering eyes duntzi with lust, muscles bulged against me.
“C’mon now, I don’t imagine you’re this innocent, Ruby?
He bit his lower lips in the most sultry way, I understood not a word he said to me, my mind and eyes fixed on his lips and our labored breathings.
Gavin ravenously took my lips again, with his hands wandering this time, coating down over my books, Incating the mounds through the fluffy towel around my chest. My breathing changed to rasping pants as his fingers arendy sougin ou my hardened nipple eagerly, stroking it delicately, agitating the skin in between my thighs the more
His phone buzzed. An unwelcome distraction and to my disappointment, he pulled back
He took the buzzing phone from his hip pocket, gave it a cursory glance before he took it to his ex. Tm on my way. Eri.” his tone husky. His eyes sought mine, ensnaring me with the passion gleaming in them. Han will serve you lunch. You’re hungry, right?”
As he spoke, his large palm trailed down my backside to grope my ass cheek.
I gasped, unsure of how to answer his question or react to his sweet touch. I gulped and simply nodded.
He smirked. Let out a slow long hiss, pulled from me, leaned in so his heavy breath could fan my ear, “Go wash up. I’ll see you when I get back this evening” He cocked his head toward the bathroom door
Instantly, I slipped from his body, sprinted right into the bathroom, dosing the door right behind me, listening to his heavy 1/4

footsteps and the sound of the door suggesting that he was gone from the bedroom. But I still listened, this time to his mind to know what he thought of me. Of our kiss.
King Gavin’s mind was void of any thoughts. I sighed. Whatever just happened between us was plainly on impulse.
Shivering, my fingers peeled off the towel, chose the shower this time. Humbled by my wantonness with the king, I turned on the cold showerhead and stood unnaturally still in it wishing the cold spray would help wash this feeling away.
He wasn’t my mate but what was that electrifying thrill I felt when he kissed me? Why did I yield so helplessly, shamelessly to every touch? What exactly was going on?
Too much for one day.
Not even the shower spray could wash the feel of a man’s touch from my skin or the taste on my tongue.
I stepped out of the shower when I felt refreshed and much better. Found a gray bathrobe and got lost in it. Gavin was a very tall person.
The image staring back in the full–length mirror looked nothing like me, all the bruises and cuts on my skin were gone. My body became perfect. Gavin’s wolf healed me. This was incredibly amazing.
A huge smile tugged at my lips as I whirled around taking in every inch of me in the mirror, viewing my spotless skin from different angles. His kisses healed me.
He possessed a very strong wolf, his flame wolf had unmatchable abilities and healing was remarkably one of them.
Did he know? Was healing me the intention behind his raw display of sexual needs?
No, there was more to the kiss than Kingly duties. There had to be. I felt his heat, I saw the lust in his eyes. A king didn’t kiss an Omega the way he’d kissed me.
The connecting door in the bathroom led to his closet. There wasn’t much in there, just a temporary stay here in Syzygy Pack but I could see his boots and shirts and other necessary clothing items neatly organized.
I went through every item there in awe. His perfume collection, I tried every one of them on my skin, loving the fun of sniffling different sweet woody scents until I stumbled on his jewelry collection.
My heart nearly ceased beating, throat instantly grew dry and my eyes widened at how beautiful and expensive they were. Wristwatches, rings, and cufflinks. All the golds in here looked outrageously expensive.
Take it!
The voice in my head urged, my fingers trembling, itching to covet these pieces.
Take it he won’t notice!
There were quite a number of them that I doubted he’d notice any was missing. With quivering fingers, I went for the gold Rolex taking it out of the box. Holding it under my intense gaze. It belonged to me. This was mine.
I skimmed around his closet for anything else until I stumbled on a Goyard duffle bag, all the air left my lungs, my jaws dropped to the floor stunned by the contents of the leather bag. The amount of cash stashed in there was vaguely unreasonable.
Without thinking. I picked out a few bands, found a pair of shorts in his closet, wore it until it fitted, and put the money away in the waistband, and pockets.
With my heart racing, I needed to get out. I had enough money now to leave the pack. I had to get away before he returned.
I debated if to take the pistol in the drawers, I’d use it for a defense if ever the need surfaced. But I had no idea how to pull

the trigger, so I decided against it. Such a foolish thought.
I left the bedroom and hurried towards the front door with crossed fingers hoping not to run into Hannah.
If Hannah saw me, she’d definitely search me. She didn’t trust me. It happened once or twice when I helped myself to a few cents from her purse. But that was a long time ago.
It would be a long walk out of the mansion. I needed to get away, out of this pack before King Gavin returned this evening to know I was gone. His things were gone.
I started towards the driveway but a chauffeur stopped me halfway through, urging me to get in the car and he drove me back to the omegas quarter.
Evelyn, my best friend’s gaze widened when she saw me enter the small cramped room we shared. She sprang to me and held me tight in her arms.
“I’m glad you’re alright.” Her eyes wandered my outfit and body, “You look nothing like the girl stripped…”
“Let’s get out!” The urgency in my tone brought waves of fear to her. She blanched when I emptied my pockets on my small bed.
“Where did you steal that from?”
“We have the money, let’s leave!”
“No,” she shook her head defiantly, “You stole that, I can’t accept that.”
“Gavin won’t mind. He’s got a lot. “I made light the situation.
Her mouth dropped open but no words left her, horror laced her big brown eyes.
“You stole from the High King?” Tears rolled from her eyes, “They almost killed you today. What the hell is your problem? I thought you’d learn!” Her voice rose infuriating me.
“Could you not yell at me?” I matched her tone.
I pushed past her to recollect things of sentimental value to me from the wardrobe. “It’s either you’re coming or you’re a loser.”
“I’d rather be a loser than get captured and killed.”
“We’re not getting captured. I’ll rent a car and we’ll go in that.”
She sniffled and shook her head determinedly.
“Return those things, the goddess saved your life today for a purpose.”
I chose to ignore her, picked back the money, the cute tiny dog statue, cufflinks, and the Rolex into the backpack.
“I’m fed up with being an Omega. If I perish, I perish but there’s no place for me in this deadbeat place anymore!”
I started towards the door with gross
“Ruby…!”
determination.
The fear in her tone stopped me abruptly by the door before I felt her arms wrapped around me tight from behind. She sobbed into my shoulder and we remained that way.
“I love you but I can’t lie when they ask me.”

“You don’t have to. I’ll be off the borders before anyone notices.” I offered her a reassuring smile before I started up the path which led out of the Omegas quarter ignoring the eerie gazes from the people around.
This was my freedom. I couldn’t let Evelyn’s fear or a mistaken kiss from the King snatch this from me.
