The Alpha's Virgin Possession(4)

She doesn’t know that.

“Are you a virgin?” he asked, choosing not to think about her question or his own doubts about his purchase of a wolf.

“That’s none of your business.”

He stopped, turning to look at her. She may be scared, but she still had a mouth on her. There was no getting away from her question. “Like you so aptly put it, I bought you. For all you know I’ve bought you for sex. To use you for my pleasure.”

Her cheeks were heating with every word he spoke. Nick also scented her desire. Clara was turned on by his words. Interesting. He’d never thought a female could be turned on by the prospect of being bought for money and then used for sex.

She stayed silent for several seconds.

“Are you going to use me?”

“Are you a virgin?” He counteracted her question with one of his own. She bit her lip, refusing to answer.

Staring down her body, Nick wished for the layers of clothing to be removed so he could admire her body.

“I didn’t buy you for your thrilling conversation,” he said, finally hoping to shock her into confessing the truth. “I bought you because I was getting tired of fucking human women. They can’t take the pounding I wish to give. Yes, I bought you for sex. I bought you for the pleasure you’ll give my cock.”

Her cheeks were a lovely strawberry color. Nick wondered how far he could talk to get the combination of her embarrassment and the scent of arousal.

“You’re outlawed.”

“Yes.”

“What for?”

Nick smiled. Leaning against the wall, he opened the door. “Go inside, and I’ll tell you everything you want to know.”

She looked inside the room. Her hand went to her chest, covering her breasts. Fuck, his cock thickened looking forward to seeing those plump mounds.

“Come on, Clara. Come inside, and I’ll tell you everything you want to know.”

“If I don’t want to?” she asked, not taking a step closer.

“Then you can go into the bedroom next door, but I won’t tell you a single thing.”

How far did her curiosity go? Nick waited, loving the challenge she represented. She took a step toward the room then pulled away.

“No, I wish for my own room.”

He was annoyed but also happy. She offered him a challenge, and he looked forward to breaking down her resolve to get what he wanted.

“Are you sure?” he asked, trying to tempt her. Unbuttoning his shirt, he left it to lie open for her to be able to see him.

Her gaze wandered down the length of him before jerking back up to his face.

She smelled fucking amazing. He couldn’t wait to bury his head between her breasts and then her thighs, to taste every single inch of her soft body. His excitement was hard to contain at the prospect of the future.

“Yes, I’m sure. I’d like my own room.”

“You’re not interested in finding out why I’m outlawed?”

“I’m interested, but I’m also not stupid.” Her fingers were locked together in front of her. Trying to ward him off? He wondered. “You’ll end up doing more than talking in there.” She nodded into his room.

“You’re right.” He shrugged. “We’ll see how long this lasts.” Brushing past her, the smell of her arousal increased. Hiding his smile, he opened the door to her bedroom. He’d gotten it ready over a week ago when he’d been in negotiation for his woman.

Clara had no choice but to brush past his body in order to get past him.

It took every ounce of strength not to touch her or draw her closer to him. The clothes she wore looked filthy, not to mention the red marks around her neck. He hated the sign of the pain she must have clearly gone through.

The room was decorated in a lovely lilac color with matching sheets for the double bed he purchased. The walk-in wardrobe was empty, but he’d go onto stocking up on all the clothes she would need.

There was a vanity table in the corner, and the doors opened up onto a veranda that overlooked the entire grounds. The property had been expensive when he bought it for the size of the land. Being an outlawed wolf didn’t stop him from needing to run.

“You’re wealthy, or is all of this family money?” she asked, folding her arms.

Glancing at her breasts, Nick let out a growl. She gasped, dropping her hands and taking a step back.

“You’re a wolf?”

“Of course I’m a wolf. I’m an outlawed wolf, but what’s more, I was an alpha until they kicked me out of my position.” He took a step closer, then another until they were standing close to each other.

She held her hands up. “I’ve heard of humans who cannot turn being outlawed, which is why I didn’t know if you were a wolf or not.” Clara tried to ward him off, but he wasn’t having any of it.
