Aa.. Alpha X... Xaa... Xaden.\" Bull stuttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his quivering lips, I could tell he was scared out of his wits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden wore a menacing stare that could frighten anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, anyone except me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That facial expression no longer worked on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I had seen it long enough to be already used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bill wasn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grabbed Bill’s arms and held him back to prevent him from leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t go anywhere,\" I said to Bill. \"You were here first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then I glared up at Xaden, my eyes spitting fire. \"If there is anyone who is supposed to, then it would be him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bill began to sweat, but I didn’t care\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, I was disappointed that he was acting like a wuss and refused to stand up to this big bully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden gave a very cunning smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know you, Bill,\" Xaden said, walking closer to him. \"And that just shows how insignificant you are. You aren’t an Alpha. Still a Beta, a soon-to-be Alpha. I can perceive it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bill swallowed heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if you are next in line, you must have heard about me from your family.\" Xaden grinned. \"Haven’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y.... Yes, I have...\". Bill managed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you should know the things I’m capable of. You should know that I don’t take enemies lightly. Don’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, I do.\" Bill managed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden continued. \"And imagine your first week as ascension, having me as your enemy. Well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden laughed with a fierce, mean laugh, revealing his handsome dimples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can tell you for free now that it would be the last thing you would want,\" Xaden said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I held onto Bill’s hand, I felt it tremble like a terrified child caught in the act of stealing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you understand me now?\" Xaden asked as the tension grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere was so tense that I could almost taste it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bill nodded hastily. \"I do Alpha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\" Xaden smiled. \"Now you know what to do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cowering Bill pulled his hand away from my grip and disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I gasped in horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden stood grinning at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before I could react to what had just happened, Xaden took my hand in his and grabbed my waist firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, he had me held firmly against his groin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was hard, and my body instantly reacted in hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My nipples became hard, my tummy flipped, and I felt the sudden warmth between my legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began dancing with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I began to struggle with him, but I was too weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My body wouldn’t let me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not when his hand was on my waist, and I was held up against him firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me go,\" I said aloud, even though my body wanted me to stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re not going anywhere.\" He whispered into my hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want me to cause a scene?\" I threatened. \"What would happen when everyone sees that the great Alpha can’t behave himself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xaden smiled at me, and I instantly knew he didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wouldn’t be the first time I’ll be misbehaving. With you especially.\" He said, and I frowned, confused. \"Considering what happened in the corridor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My face went red with shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was truly shameless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here I was arguing with a man who had no limits on how low he would stoop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go to the floor, Xaden would go underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re a bully, you know,\" I said as I looked back to see where Bill had followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was absolutely no sight of him anywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as though he had vanished, leaving no air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He didn’t do anything wrong to you.\" I confronted as we swayed with the music.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cocked his brows. \"Aren’t you happy I saved you from him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" I said lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jasmine.\" Xaden began. \"Did you want to be with a man who would run away in the face of danger? At the mere sight of his opposition? I did you a Favour if you think of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hated to admit it, but he was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bill had been intimidated at the first warning Xaden had given him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not much of a fighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I hated to admit it, but seeing Xaden so obviously annoyed, so seemingly jealous, had done things to me I never thought I would experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bill was dancing. No one ever said anything wrong about anyone dancing.\" I said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He twirled me around and then pulled me back to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He was doing something wrong.\" He said to my hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He was dancing with you,\" Xaden said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt a sudden chill evaporate in my spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He had his hand on your waist,\" Xaden whispered. \"I don’t ever want to see his or anyone else’s around your waist. I couldn’t stand seeing him make you laugh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I blinked, unable to believe what Xaden was saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being so vulnerable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Openly jealous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Expressing his feelings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not the Xaden I had grown to know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an entirely different man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I swallowed and quickly changed the topic because I didn’t want to go down this path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was too dangerous, and I was wise enough to know it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who taught you how to dance?\" I asked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mother.\" He said, his finger reaffirming their position on my waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt him smile even though I couldn’t see him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whenever there was a ceremony, she would come to me and dance with me.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How old were you?\" I asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eight.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I felt a cold sweat coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just been eight before everything had been taken away from him in the most cruel way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you know it was me?\" I asked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He laughed. \"No one with fire-red hair could look this beautiful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I smiled at his compliment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It hit me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you say fire red hair?\" I asked, lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course.\" He said as he gently touched my hair. \"Your hair is red.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But it’s black,\" I complained. \"I dyed it black.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head as he played with the strands in his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not anymore.\" He said. \"Perhaps your hair doesn’t want to be hidden.
