Her Forbidden Alpha novel Chapter 3

　　Cerulean blue eyes met sage green. Scarlett’s heart thundered in her chest as Elijah stood up slowly, his gaze shifting to her red tempting lips. He licked his plush lips slowly and she did not miss the piercing on his tongue making her eyes widen slightly. He forced his gaze away, trying not to get lost in the scent of her arousal. What the fuck were they doing?

　　He looked at the car, his back now to her, two tyres were flat and there was no way they were going to be driving it home.

　　“Shift… we’ll have to run, I’ll mind link someone to collect the car and stuff.” He said trying not to look at her.

　　“Um sure..” Her reply came, sounding rather normal despite the crazy storm in her head. ‘Fuck! He smelt my arousal! No wonder he’s not even looking at me!’ she thought frustrated. She did not really want to shift but there really was no other option.

　　They both shifted and Elijah once again looked at her in surprise, it was not only her stunning grey-white fur that stood out, but she was big - over 4 and a half foot tall. That was the size of an average alpha. She saw his curious gaze.

　　'How the fuck are you so big?' He asked through the mind link.

　　'Luck?' came her not so helpful reply as she broke into a run and ran towards home as fast as possible. He gave a wolfish grin, his wolf enjoying the thought of playing chase with a female. He ran after her, impressed with her speed, as he followed keeping up with her he had to quicken his own pace. It was not like chasing a normal wolf, that was something an alpha wolf could do with ease…

　　He nipped playfully at her as he brushed past her, causing her to slow down for a fraction of a second making him chuckle in his head.

　　'What happened Red?' He teased.

　　'Don’t mess with me Elijah!' She retorted, lunging at his back, wincing as her side made impact with him. He grunted as he stumbled tossing her wolf off him, she grabbed on to his neck with her jaw and both tumbled down the hill, laughing in their heads.

　　'Foul play there sweetheart!' His mocking voice came, making her heart pound and core throb once more.

　　'All’s fair in love and war, and this is war!' She replied through the link as he licked her face, making her growl.

　　“Are you two done?” A male voice came laughing heartily. Both wolves looked up to see they had reached pack borders and none other than the alpha stood there. The wolves sprang away from each other as if caught doing something wrong, something that only crossed both of their minds and no one else's.

　　Jackson smiled down at his son. “Welcome home son.”

　　'Glad to be back.' Elijah replied as one of the wolves accompanying the alpha tossed them both some clothes. Both took them in their mouths and went to change behind some trees.

　　Scarlett’s heart was pounding, what had happened? Elijah had never been so… playful. Pulling on the black baggy tee that fell to mid-thigh she stepped out from behind the tree, her side still aching, although the bleeding had lessened. Being an alpha blooded she-wolf she healed faster than the normal wolf and she was sure Elijah had helped… A blush faintly dusted her cheek, but she schooled her face into passiveness before she walked over to where Elijah was hugging his father. Although both men were over six foot, Elijah was clearly the bigger one.

　　“Ah, there you are? What happened to the car?” Jackson asked placing an arm around Scarlett’s shoulder once he moved back from Elijah.

　　“We were ambushed.” Elijah said glancing at Scarlett who had tensed.

　　“Rogues?” Jackson said with a frown.

　　“Yes!” Scarlett said quickly, making both alpha’s look at her. Elijah raised an eyebrow questioningly.

　　'What the fuck do you mean yes?'

　　'Not now… please I’ll explain later' she pleaded through the link.

　　“Hmm, it's strange that there are rogues out so close to the pack borders…” Jackson said seriously.

　　“Just a stray lone wolf, don’t stress it, I got Hank to get the car and stuff.” Elijah said, Jackson nodded.

　　“That’s my son.” He said then looked at Scarlett, “Now how about we go home, your mother has definitely cooked a five-course meal.”

　　“You know her dad, she loves the kitchen.” Scarlett said as Jackson kissed her forehead tenderly. Elijah watched the exchange with slight annoyance. He never understood why his father had to treat the girls as his own daughters… Although he knew he was being biased considering he treated Indigo like his little sister.

　　Speaking of the pixie…

　　“Elijahhh!” She shrieked lunging onto Elijah’s bare back and kissing his cheek. “You’re home!!!”

　　“Yeah, and I’ll probably be deaf if you continue to scream in my ear!” He said as he cupped her behind her knees carrying her piggyback style.

　　“Oh, it's ok I'm sure you’ll still be loved even if you do go deaf.” Indigo replied as Scarlett looked back at them. “Hey witch, why do you have blood dripping down your leg?”

　　All eyes went to Scarlett’s legs, although Elijah’s gaze had gone to her inner thighs first before realising blood was dripping down from her waist.

　　“Oh, I hurt it a little, I'm fine.” Scarlett said as Jackson looked very concerned.
