My Personal Lycan King novel Chapter 22

VICTORIA'S POV

"You're awake beautiful? I thought I'll have to call the doctor." He said.

It was the same thing he said in my dream too. Was it a mere coincidence? Or was it a reality that was going to happen with me now?

But, now that I observe Alexander, unlike my dream there was no such suspicion in his eyes. I could only see genuine concern for myself. 

Looks like all of it was just my imagination. I think I need to stop watching those movies for a while and give myself a break.

'But what about the forest? He indeed said something at that time right? What was it?' I thought in my mind before practically detouring through my memory to know about it.

His eyes had started to change color, it was as if he was angry when I said Daniel's name. And then he came closer to me before muttering,

"You don't need any other mate, other than me. I am your only mate and will always remain your one and only. Like you are my only mate." He had said at that time.

Yes, that was what he had said at that time.

What does that even mean? Was it some drunk talk or what?

Shaking my head, I looked at Alexander who was sitting there looking at me with concern-filled eyes, still waiting for my reply.

"I am good now. What happened?" I asked cautiously.

"Your stupidity happened. I was telling you about the mate the- nevermind. And you kept backing off like you were scared of me or something. Before I could notice, you stumbled upon a tree falling straight, hurting your head on the branch." He explained, making me check the back of my head subconsciously.

There was indeed a bump forming.

"Haha...I don't remember any of it." I awkwardly laughed, at both my stupidity and my imagination.

He laughed at my reply, showing those canines.

"Your canines are soo sharp," I said involuntarily, before realizing my mistake.

Stupid mouth! Can't even control yourself!

There is no way I am gonna go all Bella in this situation. For God knows, not every vampire is sweet like Edward. And what if he turns out to be a vampire and decides to suck my blood. 

I am even living alone for god's sake!! 

Will anybody even file a missing report for me?

"Have you ever seen yours in the mirror? Yours are sharper than mine. Are you a cat or something?" He joked not at all mind my words. I awkwardly laughed at his comment touching my canines involuntarily.

What if all of it is just my pure imagination?

Elongating canines? Wow. I think I should start writing a novel or something. Maybe my novel could make a movie too.

"Okay. Thanks for taking me here. You can go and do whatever you want. I was going to meet my friend thunder. He is a  wolf." I said, not at all mind sharing it with him when I have confirmed my suspicion that he was not a vampire.

Vampire hate werewolves right? 

"Thunder? You even named a wolf. Wow. But why would you go and meet a wolf when you have a wolf-like muscular and sexy friend at your disposal?" Alexander said.

"I would rather be with him. And have you checked up on your 'girlfriend' if she's alright?" I asked emphasizing the girlfriend part.

"Why are you calling Laila my girlfriend again and again? I don't understand." Alexander asked as he took a bite from my pancake.

He took a bite from the pancake I was eating!! 

Geez! What is wrong with his head? He could've just picked a new one.

'I know right?! We just indirectly kissed!' Carla screamed like a fangirl excitedly.

What the hell!! We indirectly kissed?! 

Sometimes I don't even understand, how her thought process works. But that doesn't mean it didn't catch me off guard. 

"You have some honey here," Alexander said as he wiped the corner of my lips, making my eyes go wide as I started feeling hot.

'Ahem! I know we like this proximity with him, but it would be better if you can stop panicking, I don't want you to burn the house.' Carla said out of nowhere.

Why would I burn the house? I said in my head before my gaze landed behind Alexander on the curtain.

There was fire lit below my curtain and it was starting to burn.

'Oh my god! Please tell me I didn't do it.' I said.

'I would've loved to console you, but please extinguish it rather than panicking.' Carla said as she sat there casually as if watching some kind of movie.

Standing from my bed, when Alexander was busy eating the pancake, I took the jar of water and three the water on the curtain to extinguish the fire.

'Phew! That was a close call. You better warn me if you are planning something like that.' I scolded Carla before smiling back at Alexander. 

What we were talking about before Carla showed her stunt? Oh yeah, Laila his girlfriend.

"Well, isn't she? She was practically all over you during lunch. And Aiden confirmed it." I said shrugging my shoulders as if it didn't matter to me when from inside I was dying to know what he had to say regarding the matter.

"From your angle, it might've looked like she was all over me. It's just her being her. She is my third in command after Daniel. I mean, the committee and in the group. There is nothing more to that.

 Besides Aiden said all of that because we did go out on a holiday somewhere, it was work-related but people thought that I was dating her because I didn't tell anybody about it. Also, I have a presumption that Aiden liked her but she rejected him, so he is just jealous maybe?" He explained while scrutinizing me for any reaction.

"Get out! I'll rest for a bit before getting ready. So atop annoying me and get lost." I said pushing him out of the room.

"Is this how you treat your savior? Chivalry is dead." He exaggerated making me roll my eyes. 

Yeah totally.

'Why are you sending our mate away. Let him stay. I am not done ogling him.' Carla said adding fuel to my fire.

'Shut up woman. It all started with you, I know that.' I said that made her immediately shut up.

"Wait! What did you call me just now?" Alexander suddenly stopped.

"What did I call you?" I asked confused.

"When you were talking about that privacy stuff." He said.

"Jerk? Rude? Stupid? Dumb?" I asked.

And he looked at me as if I was some dummy. And then I realized, these are the names that I call him in my mind.

"Xander?" I asked finally remembering the name.

"Yeah that. No one has ever called that. It's unique and I like it." He said before coming closer to me and kissing my cheeks.

"I would like to hear more of it." He said seductively in my ears before rushing out of the door as if his pants were on fire.

Wait, what the hell did just happened?

'Our mate like the name you called him. He kissed us.' Carla said jumping around like a happy chicken.

Oh, he kissed us. Wait, he kissed us?!!

 And I was just standing there?

 Shouldn't I have given something in return? A slap maybe? 

'Oh shut up girl. You and I both know, how you are practically dying to kiss those soft luscious lips of his.' Carla mentioned, making me turn a deep shade of red.

'Jesus! Go easy on your powers will you?' Carla said before pointing at my front where the cloth on my table was set up on fire.

'Shit!' I said aloud before rushing to extinguish it.
