《Iris: Child of prophecy》Chapter eight
Advertisement
I woke up with a fright. I was breathing heavily and my clothes stuck to my because I was sweating so much.
"What's wrong" his scent made me dizzy as he placed his hand on my shoulder.
"Nothing" I jumped out of bed "it's just a nightmare" I mumbled.
"Wanna talk about it" I could feel his sincerity but I wasn't sure I was ready to trust him, if I ever would. Wait a minute... of course I didn't trust him!
"No I just want to take a shower" I rushed into the bathroom, it was large, those kinds I admired in magazines .It was amazing.
I stripped and got in the tub. I looked all around for the tap there was none okay I have a problem.
"Uh... " damn I didn't know his name. Wow never quite bothered to ask.
Like I had a chance.
I opened the door slightly and saw him lying on the bed half naked, I deny any reports to my smitten expression, I will not be party to sick game the Moon goddess plays and calls a mate bond.
It was the light or just probably the fact that he looked so good in bed? He looked up almost immediately.
His hair was covering his eyes partially and his lips were slightly parted and moist like he just licked them.
"Um.. How do I turn on the tub?" I peeped with my head sticking out hiding my naked body behind the door.
"That's pretty complicated maybe you should just use the shower" he looked up at me, with a sly grin. "Or I could join you"
"Haha" I rolled my eyes, trying to ignore the shiver that ran down my spine. "I think I'll manage "
I went back in and shut the door, then I remembered I still don't know his name.
"Give up already?"he smirked when I opened the door again. I rolled my eyes, " I don't know your name"
He smiled and I froze. Don't get me wrong everything about him is drop dead gorgeous. He always looked dangerous, big, buff and handsome. But this was different, it was beautiful. He was the kind of guy you see admire and turn in the opposite direction but this smile made him seem more human more lovable. It was OMG!
"Malik" he snapped me out of my trance.

"OK thanks" I quickly said and shut the door.
"Okay then, tub how hard can you be" I looked for a button some switch at least and my eyes landed on a remote.
"Perfect" I stared at it, okay there was the regular red button which I assumed was on, I turned it on. I was very bad with technology, didn't exactly have the privilege of one when I literally lived in the woods.
"Okay" I stepped in and I press the button for hot water, gosh it was so good I hadn't bathed in hot water for so long. And the annoying bathroom in the other room had only cold water.
I was so relax I picked up the remote and began to peruse through I saw a button for jet and I turned it on.
"Ooh that's nice" I groaned. I looked at the shelf for bath gel, and some shampoo. My poor hair has been on a shampoo sabbatical.
As I stood up to pick the bath gel I slipped and chipped my chin on the side of the tub and as I tried to grab on to the edge for support I pressed the the remote the water started spurting from everywhere at me with such force
I screamed and as I tried to fight water ( sorely losing by the way) the remote fell in.
"No no no!"
"Uh.. Iris is everything alright do you need help?"
"Ahhhhhh" I screamed out of frustration, I had soap in my mouth and shampoo on my body and the water was just making everything difficult and slippery.
"Uh hot shot?" Hot shot? "I asked to join you in the bathroom I'm not sure I like bathing in the bedroom".
Huh?
."what I mean to say is I'm coming in"
"No no no! I'm naked"
"So what?"
"So I don't want you to see me naked"
Before I could argue further the door flung open and I pushed myself into the water to hide my naked body I've never gotten comfortable with nudity, as a wolf you'd think that I would be used to it already and the thought of him seeing me like that did something to my head, my cheeks tinged red and butterflies erupted in my stomach.
"Where is the remote" he yelled through the splashing water and soap

"Um, well about that"
"Don't tell me it fell in"he sounded a bit annoyed almost angry. I gulped.
He leaned into the water and picked me up I cuddled close to my self pulling my knees to my chest and my hands across my generous bust. Trying to cover as much as I could.
His hands rested on my naked back and bare thighs. I felt a surge of electricity through my body and my Heart was beating faster.
He took me out of the bathroom and laid me on the bed. I was soaking the bed with my waist length black hair, he stopped for a moment and he scanned my body, unconsciously I pushed my knees up to my chin and his eyes came to rest on the spot around my neck. My breathing hitched and my heart was thumping in my chest, it was almost painful. I looked up at his face and I noticed his eyes had changed colour and his canines were already coming out.
"You're not going to mark me now are you?"
He cleared his throat snapping out of it and he turned to go back and I thought he was going to the bathroom as water was already flooding the room. He went into the closet and brought out a shirt and a pair of shorts.
"Put it on".
I grabbed the shirt and dragged it over my still wet body as he dragged me out of the room.
"Wait don't I at least get a towel?" I tried to keep up with his long strides, my waist length hair was soaking the shirt behind me. And forget the shorts he didn't give me anytime to do anything.
I saw some men pass by us running to the room he must have told them to go fix it up.
When we stopped walking I took in my surrounding, it looked like a casino at first with the whole bar and all. But it was smaller and warmer. I saw a large dinning table at the corner.
"Madam Louis" Malik yelled, I sneezed he glared at me.
"Madam lou-"
"I can hear you child" a nice voice called out from behind the counter of the bar.
"Don't call me that" his grip tightened as he clenched his teeth.
"Ow, Alpha Malik you're hurting me" I tried to yank it away, but instead he pulled me closer to his side.
"Oh go twist your underwear some where else"
"My room is flooded, thanks to this fool by my side" my mouth hung open.
Did he just call me a fool. Nobody calls me a fool.
"Excuse you, jackass, mistakes happen I'm sorry about your room. You see I guess I'm too much trouble for you so why don't you just let me go huh" I yelled at him. It was then I really realized what I had gotten my self into.
Malik was a friggin six foot one? Two? Giant and I was a five foot six. I was so small in comparison to him. He looked down at me with such dominance. It was hard to even be angry at him when my whole body screamed run.
"What did you say miss?" He looked down and bent so he could look me straight in the eyes.
"Look here Missy, I will not take any sass or disrespect. You made a mistake, big mess and you will apologize not yell or shout because guess what-" his hands move up to my shoulders and he squeezed so damn hard. I flinched "I will end you"
I rolled my eyes. "Roll your eyes one more time and I'll remove them,besides I think a blind luna is better than a sassy one"
"Oooooh, I'm so scared" I wave my palms around. His eyes got lighter, from the deep ocean blue to sky blue. His wolf was taking control. And as he raised his hand to hit me. I braced for impact.
I sneezed, not once, not twice but several times.
Then I looked up at him sniffling.
"Oh you poor thing, you have a cold" the old lady walked over to me. "But how wouldn't you I'm sure this big dumb dumb didn't let you dry off" she held my shoulder and started to lead me to the kitchen.
But not before she smacked him behind his head. Yes she was also taller than I was.
"Look at what you put this poor girl through" she spat at him. And as we walked away I turned around stuck out my tongue at him.
He growled and I snickered.
Hehehe you just got served.
