CHAPTER 52

CHAPTER FIFTY TWO
DRAKE’S POV
Mortals.

I scoffed as I gulped down the last contents of the Johnny Walker red label. Nothing about this world excited me other than getting revenge for my kind and getting my mate. As I watched the extremely sexy mortal woman twisting expertly around the pole in the middle of the club with several men eyeing her, I couldn’t help but wonder if Nadia could do the same. With such an hourglass figure encompassed by a stretch of flawless beautiful caramel skin, it was crazy how she made me want her in more ways than one. The last time I had seen her, she was only but a child and now, she was a fully grown woman. In a way, I couldn’t blame that alpha boy for wanting her but I was going to have so much fun watching him lose her to me. Too bad she had not gotten her full memories back.

Straightening up, I ushered at the bartender to refill my glass, my gaze flirting around to find a worthy meal. Hmmm…there was plenty to go on tonight. A rather delicious looking French woman in her mid-twenties wiggled her eyebrows from where she sat but I was not feeling too French tonight. At the corner was a very hot, curvy black woman but I wasn’t into chocolate either tonight. I was looking for something that would trigger my appetite to its full potential but none of the women here seemed to be my choice of taste tonight.

“Here is you drink, sir,” I turned around at the bartender.

As I accepted the drink, I took a full length glance at the bartender. He looked like he was in his early twenties. Guilty reeked from him and that tinkered around with my curiosity. What could he be so guilty about? Considering I was bored, I summoned him again.

“So, what is this that you did that haunts you this bad?” The upside of being a vampire is that you can compel mortals to do or say whatever the hell you want?

“I don’t know what you are talking about, sir,” he walked away. Wait, why didn’t work?

“Sorry to bust your bubble but after the news of your arrival, lets say we had to take precaution. Every mortal in town has vervain in their system but they don’t know it, of course. While you were busy threatening mw tonight, I called in a favor from the other packs and they saw to it every one in this town had vervain in their system. Now you can’t compel or drink blood from any mortal. Pretty clever of me, isn’t it?”

“Hmm…I underestimated you wolf boy,” I turned my face half-way to the man that had joined me and was wearing a victorious smirk on his face.

“You sure did,” he signaled the bartender, placing his order.

“So what makes you come here at this time of the night and sit right next to me? Looking for a quick death or something?”

“As much as I’m looking for the easiest way to get rid of you, I think it’s only fair I let you breath a little bit more of our beautiful air. It’s the least I can do as a human,” he replied in a curt tone.

“Let me breath? You should be thankful I haven’t torn you into pieces right now. You had the nerve to actually get close to my mate like that,”

“Get close? Huh, we didn’t just get close Drake. We fucked really hard. Damn! You should seen the way her legs held onto me. But of course, not as tight as the way her walls held on to my dick. Oh, fuck me! I’ve never felt so whole in my entire life. You know what’s the best part? Its when she begged me to take her deep, hard and fast. She-“ I grabbed his collars.

“One more word and you’ll be my meal tonight,” I snapped through gritted teeth, glaring at Collins. Right now, the urge to rip his intestines out and shove them down his own throat was overwhelming and it was taking every ounce of energy in me to stop myself.

“What? Are you scared now that she may certainly feel for me what you can only dream of?” he still had the nerve to smirk.

I let go of his collar, brushing his shoulder lightly,” Man to Man, watch where your dick goes into. Next time, I may not be feeling as…lenient,”

He chuckled instead as he got his order, finishing in exactly five gulps then ordered a second round and finished it in barely two minutes. Hmm…maybe this night was not going to be as boring as I had thought it would be. Angling myself towards him, I crossed my right leg over the other.

“So what is bothering the little wolf then?” I smirked.

“Why are you here you bloody bastard?” he finally asked after a few seconds of silence had passed by.

“Why am I here? Are you seriously asking me that? Let me see, years ago, I lost my entire kind. So obviously, I’m here to do the same for the werewolves. But most importantly, I’m here to claim my promised mate once she gets all her memories back,”

“We were happy. I was finally happy and you just had to come and ruin it. You know she was normal but then you walk into town, her friend turns to be someone like you, her fucked up memories start coming back and now she can’t stand me. Are you fucking happy now, huh? Tell me you bloody hybrid. Are you happy that she hates me because of what my father apparently did to her family?”

“As a matter of fact, yes and seeing you like this, makes me even happier,” I replied, fully enjoying the spectacle he was making of himself.

“Fine. She maybe your promised mate but she is going to be mine. If you think I’m going to give up on her, then you’ve got something else coming. Neither you nor what my father did, is going to stop me from making her mine. You’d do well to remember that,”

“I love a good fight. Lets hope its worth a broken face, “I smirked one more time.
