Chapter 8: Claimed

Natasha cannot explain the beats of her heart because of what the alpha was doing toward her. He was already massaging her strained leg and Natasha was biting her bottom lip while watching how the Alpha massaged it. It seemed like the pain she had felt earlier had already faded.

“Does it still hurt?”

Alpha Reid asked her those words and Natasha's face blushed while she nodded her head responding to him.

“It's fine now, Alpha Reid. Thank you so much for saving me earlier.”

Just because of what Natasha mentioned, Alpha Reid lifted his head and looked at her. She swallowed her saliva upon meeting the alpha's gaze and Natasha wanted to move her head in the other direction, but it seems like she can't move it away.

“Next time if you want to go out, just don't step on that forest. It is very dangerous for you to enter that place. There are many wolves strolling in that area and I am sure, they won't spare your life once you're caught.”

Alpha Reid demanded to her and Natasha nodded her head. She admits that she made the wrong decision of entering that forest, but on the other side she felt happy.

Natasha was happy because Alpha Reid never doubted about saving her life. She didn't know what would happen to her if he did not come on time.

“Don't worry, Alpha Reid because what happened earlier will never happen again. I won't enter that forest, ever again.” Natasha avowed which made Alpha Reid nod his head responding to her.

“I just want to remind you about something, Natasha…” Alpha Reid paused his sentence first and made her lift her head to him. “You are only mine, Natasha. Do you get that?” She was stunned in her direction when he continued his sentence.

“W…what are you saying, Alpha Reid?”

Natasha asked which made the Alpha grip her wrist. She was stunned by what he did and it seems like the alpha changed his mood just in a blink of an eye.

“I already claimed you, Natasha, and no one must take you away from me. No one should dare touch you, even my men, because once I catch them, there will be a consequence. You are also my mate, remember?”

Natasha swallowed her saliva from what he mentioned. It's as if her soul wanted to come out from her ribcage.

“Yes, Alpha Reid. I… I get that because I am sold to you and I will not talk with other men aside from you. And also because I am your mate,”

Natasha quavered and Alpha Reid let out a deep sigh as a sign of relief from her response.

“That's great because I don't want to allow anyone to touch you. I already claimed you and no one would dare claim you, Natasha. They shouldn't try.”

Natasha also let out a deep breath in relief when she noticed him already calming down. She feared him because after all, it was still Alpha Reid, the known ruthless billionaire, but the man never hurt her. But despite that, Alpha Reid still respects her. He wasn't hurting her regardless of how much money he spent to purchase her.

Natasha on the other side, never regretted that it was the ruthless billionaire who bought her. It cannot be denied that Alpha Reid was the handsome, hot and multi-billionaire alpha of the town.

“Stop worrying, Alpha because I am not letting anyone touch me and if someone dared, I'll tell them that you claimed me already.”

Natasha's heart beat so fast while she was saying those words to him. She wanted to scold herself and was about to take back her words, but Alpha Reid was already grinning at her. Natasha swallowed her saliva when she noticed the Alpha's eyes.

It seemed like he was planning on claiming her and she wasn't mistaken about it. Alpha Reid already claimed her lips and her body was aroused. She can't explain why her body reacted that much because of what he was doing. Natasha wrapped her hands around his nape and never doubted answering his kiss.

The two of them were kissing each other even though they were still in the main corridor of the house. Natasha has already forgotten herself because she was driven by lust the moment that the Alpha had claimed her lips. The alpha's hands moved under her shirt and were about to start rubbing her peak when someone speaks behind their back.

“Alpha Reid…” The Alpha immediately pushed her away when that man spoke to them. “Oh, it's not my intention to disturb the two of you.”

The man sputtered while asking for forgiveness towards them. Natasha bent her head because of the embarrassment. The alpha's beta caught them kissing and it was so embarrassing for her to consider.

“What do you want, Beta? Can't you see, I am still spending time with her?”

What the beta did pisses him off. It can be noticed from the Alpha's tone that he was pissed off.

“Forgive me, Alpha, but your father just called to inform you that there would be a ball tonight at the palace and you have to bring your mate.”

The beta explained and Natasha's heart beat so fast upon hearing those words, so she turned her gaze to Alpha Reid.

“Tell him that we're coming.”

He bragged and the beta nodded his head before he left them. Natasha bites her bottom lip because of what she heard.

“Are we coming on that ball, Alpha Reid?” She inquired and the alpha nodded his head to her.

“Exactly. Tonight will also be the night that my father will pass the throne to me and we have to be there.”

Just because of what the Alpha told her, Natasha let out a deep breath while nodding her head toward him.

“But…”

She did not finish her sentence when the Alpha cut her already.

“No buts anymore, Natasha. You're coming because I will introduce you to my father as my mate and it was the plan, right? You accepted the offer and you must do your job. Don't wait for me to get mad because you will never like it when you trigger my anger.”

Natasha seemed hurt by the alpha's words. Alpha Reid walks out after mentioning out those words and so, she was left on the couch still dumbfounded by the alpha's attitude.
