She looks shocked for a moment but then a smile crosses her face.
"That's impossible." She says and leans back in the chair, waving an imaginary bug away with her hand.
I lean forward.
"This morning a woman drove onto my territory. The gate opened for her by itself." I can see the disbelief in her eyes.
"Thats not even the worse part," I continue, "she is human." I slam my hand on the desk.
"How is that possible?" I ask her angrily.
Ruby suddenly throws her head back and laughter booms out of her. If I wasn't so pissed, I might have also found the situation funny too, but I need answers.
"Well, can you explain it to me?" I ask pointedly and Ruby tries to get her laughter under control.
"The gate only opens when the Alpha of the territory commands it to open." She says, still trying to get herself somewhat calm.
She gets up from her chair with a big grin.
"Seems your territory has a new Alpha." She says with bright smile.
I am stunned. That's not possible.
"Look, I don't know how or why, but the spell sees her as it's Alpha too. I'll try and get some answers for you." She gets up and turns to walk out the door but stops half way.
"She is human. I can smell her sweet sent all over the place." Ruby says breathing in deeply and I feel my wolf breaking to the surface, wanting to rip the witches throat out for talking about my mate's sweet sent. "I will try to cast a spell for her to return on her own but..." She pauses with a smile "Seems this little wonder doesn't follow rules."
She proceeds to walk out the door shaking her head and laughing, leaving me stunned in my chair.
What the fuck is going on??
Sam POV
I haven't been driving long, probably about half an hour. But I have no idea where I am or where I'm going. Being lost on a back road in the woods it absolutely not recommended!
Suddenly I feel my car shudder and the engine dies. The car slowly comes to a stop.
"No, no, no!" I scream and slam my hands on the steering wheel. I feel tears welling up in my eyes and I pinch the bridge of my nose to stop myself from crying.
This cant be happening. I take a deep breath and turn the key in the ignition.
Its sounds as if the car wants to start. So I try it again.
"Come on baby, you can do this." I try speak to the car spirits of the universe and hope they favour me today.
I turn the key once again and the engine turns over.
"Yes, baby!" I shout and put the car into first gear.
As soon as I pull away there is a loud bang and a giant puff of smoke comes out from underneath the hood of the car. Blocking my view completely.
I inhale some of the smoke and start to cough. My eyes starts to burn. I definitely need to get out of this thing. I get out and slam the door shut, walking a few steps away and taking deep breaths of fresh air.
I look around. Jip, still in the middle of nowhere, I throw my hands in the air and scream into the trees.
I start to cough again, and pat my own chest. Ok, so no more of that. Come on Sam, you can do this.
I turn to look at the wreck. The bumper didn't take to much damage, but it does look like something is sticking out of the headlight. I move closer to get a better view of what it might be.
It looks long and sleek like a pole and I pull at it. It comes out rather difficult, I have to place one foot on the car to gain some leverage to pull it out.
It dislodges and I fall back on my butt in the dirt. Great!
I look at the pole and it seems that the end that was lodged in the car was somewhat sharpened.
I stare at it for a moment in disbelief.
Son of a bitch! He speared my car! How did I miss that??
I get up and kick the wheel of the car out of anger and frustration, before ripping open driver side door. I get my cell phone and hold it up, trying to find some signal to call someone to come and help me. Anyone. Even drunk Ian can come and help me right now. I don't even care anymore!
Wait, no, not him. He probably doesn't even know anything about cars. And I definitely don't want to get groped by him again. Once was enough.
But that Alpha...
I wouldn't mind getting groped by him.
I bite my lip thinking about his muscled arms around me, pinning me to his hard chest. His big hands holding onto my butt and grinding his cock into my stomach while his lips crush mine in a mind blowing kiss.
I lean back against my car. Now that is how a girl gets groped!
I shake my head. What is wrong with you? He killed your car and now you are stranded in the wild, about to get killed by wild animals. Why on earth would you want him to touch you?
I shudder as images of animals eating me flash through my mind.
Thats it. I walk around the car and get my bag out.
Time to start walking.
