Caged Between the beta and alpha

Chapter 96

Now that Liam was ok, the questions filled my mind, what the hell happened?

“Who was it?” I asked.

A silence fell and my stomach twisted.

Why weren’t they telling me? I looked at Damon, who was still pale, watching Liam almost as if he

couldn’t believe he was ok.

“Damon?”

He looked at me, his heart racing as he glanced at Uncle El, as even Aunty Red moved back

questioningly.

“Haru Jacobs.” Uncle El said quietly, making my stomach plummet.

My father… he…

“He’s dead.

I killed him.

I’m sorry.” Uncle El said, looking directly at me.

I shook my head

“No, I’m sorry that this happened because of me… I’m sorry.”

“Hey.

Stop apologising.

You are not responsible for your father’s crimes, Raven.” Uncle El said firmly, as I fought back the

tears.

Liam stood up again, closing the gap between us.

He pulled me tightly into his arms, making sparks erupt through me as he encased me in his embrace.

Please, never let me go.

“Yeah, you aren’t responsible.” He said quietly.

I closed my eyes, clutching on to his ruined shirt as I sobbed quietly into it.

“It’s been a long night, everyone just head to bed for now….” Uncle El said.

“The few who were injured, make sure your wounds are checked, luckily Liam took most of them…”

“The guards outside his home are all unconscious.

Someone helped him.” Zack said, making us all turn sharply.

“We’ll figure this out.” Uncle El said.

“The curse is broken.” Liam said quietly.

Aunty Red gasped, her eyes lighting up.

My heart skipped a beat as I stared up at him.

“You were willing to sacrifice yourself for me…a selfless sacrifice.” Damon said, quietly.

“It broke the curse.”

He looked at Liam, who gave him a small smile.

“I always would.” He replied quietly.

Their eyes met, I knew this conversation between them wasn’t over.

I gave Damon a small smile and he smiled back.

“We’ll get the area cleaned.

You all should head home.” Damon said, quietly.

Uncle El shook his head.

“No, we’ll do this together.

Red, take Azura and Monica home.

Raven?”

“I’m staying to help,” I said firmly.

“Ok.” Uncle didn’t argue, and I was relieved.

Damon looked down, and I frowned, concerned.

‘You ok?’

‘Yeah, I am.’ He replied through the link.

Our eyes met and he gave me a wink.

He was shaken by what happened… and something told me this would be the start of mending the rifts

between them… I sure hoped so anyway…

I looked at Liam, who was looking down at me with unmasked adoration in his eyes that were still

shining magnetic blue.

My heart skipped a beat and I raised my eyebrows.

“What is it?” I asked.

“You look beautiful, even with that cake in your hair.” He teased, and just like that, I felt like everything

was going to be completely fine.

We returned to the Westwood home two hours later.

We had helped clean up, including getting the glass from inside the bedrooms cleaned up too.

I had caught a glimpse of Dad’s body… but I didn’t want to see him…

He hated me to such an extent that he was ready to kill those important to me, it baffled me that he

went for Damon and not Liam… But that was a question for another day.

Ilocked his bedroom door just as Liam pulled his shirt off and tossed it in the bin, his body was

perfection … every ridge and muscle so deliciously flawless…

He looked at me and my heart skipped a beat.

Even the scar down his eye added to his sex appeal.

Oh, goddess… why did he look even more distracting now?

Those eyes of his still blazing magnetic blue.

My mate.

“Join me.” He said huskily.

I blushed, nodding as I took his outstretched hand as he led me to the bathroom.

He had seen me naked when I was in heat, but now… I realised that I was actually going to see him

naked too…completely.

“Nervous?” He asked huskily.

“Not at all…” | said, confidentially unzipping his pants as he slid the zip down my dress.

“Your aura’s stronger.”

“Apparently, I have some special abilities, although we are yet to see what they are.”

I cocked a brow.

“Your eyes are still your wolf’s and your aura is so strong… Can’t you reign it in?” I asked as I

shimmied out of my dress, turning away slightly, left in nothing but my underwear. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“It’s reigned in love.” He said, taking off his pants, my eyes falling to the front of his black fitted boxers.

Goddess… I averted my gaze.

The urge to take a good long look was strong, but…

I was about to step into the shower when Liam’s hands gripped my hips from behind.

“Not forgetting these?” He whispered, hooking his fingers into my panties.

| gasped, feeling his naked body behind me, making my core clench, my heart thumping like crazy.

“Maybe I wanted you to take them off.” I said softly,

No, I was planning on keeping them on!

“With pleasure.” He whispered, before his lips attacked my neck with passionate, hot, hungry kisses.

His hands roamed my waist and stomach, making me whimper.

“Liam….” I whispered as he began kissing me down my back, sending shivers of pleasure through me.

gasped when he tugged my underwear down with his teeth, making my core throb, and I knew he could

smell my arousal…

“You’re mine, Raven.” He growled possessively.

I gasped when his fingers brushed my inner thigh, his teeth grazing my hip as he peeled my underwear

off, biting my lip as the fabric slid out from my ass cheeks ever so slowly.

“Yours.” I whispered, unable to resist the way my body arched at his touch.

My panties dropped to the floor and Liam stood up.

“That’s better.” He whispered, his fingers skimming my hips.

I bit back a whimper, feeling his erection prod my back.

My stomach fluttered nervously as he nudged me into the shower, reaching over and switching it on.

Warm water poured down on us and I gasped, not because of the downpour of water but because

Liam’s

lips met my neck once more.

“You marked me.” He said quietly.

He reached for the body wash, squirting a generous amount onto his hands.

I was about to take the bottle but he put it back, rubbing his hands together before he cupped my

breasts.

* “… I did.

You marked me too.” I said, my cheeks burning at how turned on I was becoming.

I could feel him rock hard behind me, the beating of his heart, the way he was controlling himself as he

soaped my body, his hand running down my waist and stomach, making my core clench.

“I did… But you risked your life…” He said quietly, his husky voice sending a shiver through me.

“I didn’t want to live without you.” I whispered quietly, my eyes fluttering shut when his hand cupped my

core, making me moan.

“Don’t say that… but thank you for choosing me.”

“I…” A moan left my lips when his fingers parted my folds and rubbed his soapy fingers along my clit.

“Liam

I reached behind me, tangling my hand into his hair, my heart thumping when he groaned.

“I wanted to take you out… Make everything fucking special for you… but…” His finger rubbing my clit

faster, his other hand grabbing my breast, I moaned loudly.

His lips met my neck in a slow erotic kiss, his

tongue flicking out and running up my neck, leaving behind a fire of illicit desire.

His words, his touch, and the pleasure he was inflicting on me were making me go crazy, yet it was his

next words and action that made me lose any control I had left.

“But I can’t wait any longer.

I want you.

I fucking need you.” He whispered seductively in my ear just as his finger penetrated me…
