It was Derek's worried voice. It was the last thing I could analyze before sinking into nothingness...

I woke up in the same room as the night before. The walls were dark as well as the bed which was black, which did not prevent it from being super comfortable. The curtains, still black, were closed.

I got up and noticed that I was still in my underwear. I saw a cream silk bathrobe lying on a black armchair. I decided to take it and put it on. I was still not going to stay in my underwear!

The room I was in was very beautiful to me the total absence of colors made it sad and dreary. So I opened the curtains quickly to try to lighten this dark room a little.

The sudden daylight assaulted my poor eyes, forcing me to close them with a groan.

Once accustomed, I could reopen them normally.

- Well, I'm not going to stay in this room indefinitely.

I made my bed and as soon as I was done I left this room. I immediately found myself in a long white hallway with a beautiful varnished wooden floor.

At the end of it, there was a staircase, also in parquet, which I descended. I arrived this time in a beautiful living room, there were two beautiful black leather sofas, between them was a black coffee table which rested on a white velvet carpet.

The floor was covered with black parquet and all the walls were white. There was also a small bookcase and a black flat screen hanging on the wall.

Suddenly a delicious smell came to tickle my nostrils, immediately making my poor stomach rumble

famine .

I walked with great strides towards the source of this smell, it led me towards a high-tech kitchen, where was the watch lady of the day before. If I remember correctly, her name is Sophia.

Since she was from behind, she didn't see me, so I threw a shy .

- Hello.

She immediately turned around and gave me a big smile.

- Good day Mrs . Glad to see you are feeling better and on your feet!

- Thank you, that's nice, Sophia, isn't it?

- Yes Madam .

The way she called me bothered me a lot... At boarding school, it was I who called the adults that and not the other way around.

- Please don't call me ma'am, it's making me old and I'm not used to it.

- Well... miss?

- I would have preferred that you call me by my first name.

She looked embarrassed...

- I do not prefer ...

Not wanting to embarrass her more than she already seemed, I didn't insist.

- Well it doesn't matter, on the other hand I demand that you call me familiar! I say smiling. The formality bothers me.

- Well mademoiselle! She said with a big smile.

That's when my stomach called me to order with a gurgle. I felt myself turning red with embarrassment and Sophia smiled gently.

- Do you want something to eat ?

- Yes please .

She then took chocolate fondant out of the oven, which gave off a delicious smell. Sophia began to laugh softly when she saw that I was on the verge of drooling.

She took one of the fondants out of her silicone mold and placed it on a small white plate. Then she took from the fridge a very small bottle of custard, which poured entirely on my fondant.

She put the plate in my face and placed a small silver spoon next to it.

I grabbed it and attacked my fondant with hunger and greed, I had barely started the first bite when a chocolate and vanilla flavor exploded in my mouth. The mixture married so well that the taste became indefinable as it was so good...

The fondant was so good that I ate it much more greedily and quickly, as if I was afraid it would be stolen or run away for fear of being eaten!

Sophia laughed then smiled when she saw me eating with such an appetite. In a few minutes the plate was empty, and I looked at her like a beaten dog, regretting my delicious fondant.

Sophia served me a second with a big smile, and she placed a new full plate under my nose. I looked at her and told her with a childish and mischievous smile.

- I already love you!

Then I eagerly started my second fondant.

When I had finished I cleared myself my plate in the sink and I started the dishes.

- No ! Leave miss, I'll do it!

- No, I insist! It's to thank you for the chocolate fondants. I tell him with a big smile.

- But ...

- There are no "buts" that hold! It is a pleasure .

She did not insist further. When the dishes were done, I stepped out onto the patio outside with a steaming cup of tea in my hands.

I sat down in a chair, drinking it slowly, then I thought about what had happened to me.

Basically I had learned that werewolves existed, Derek wanted me to come live with him but I had fled, I had been attacked then stabbed because they wanted to rape me, then I had been saved by Derek who angrily killed my attacker and I was about todie ...

Now I was quietly finishing a cup of tea.

I have a totally normal life!!! Note that I say this ironically.

Probably because of all his upheaval I started crying in silence... I hated crying because it was showing his weakness, and in this cruel world people would later use our own weakness against us.

I had just stopped crying, and I had barely finished my tea, when a wolf that I knew only too well appeared.

He stared at me in astonishment and then almost immediately resumed an impassive face. He climbed onto the terrace, and he transformed back into a human. He quickly took out a black silk bathrobe, which was lying on one of the chairs on the terrace. Then he put it on, and I the whole time had looked away to avoid seeing his nudity. I only knew his body was all muscle.

He turned to me and said .

- Follow me !

I followed him without flinching, because I could see that it was better not to annoy him... He took me to the dark room where I had woken up. Once inside he locked the door, he turned to me and he gazed determinedly into mine...

- I'm waiting for explanations.

- About what ? I asked, embarrassed.

- About your escape!

- I didn't want to change my life, I didn't want to belong to you, I wanted to be free and be alone. The idea that my fate was sealed, was unbearable to me... I said with my head down...

When I raised my head I noticed that in his eyes there was sadness, compassion but also anger... a lot of anger.

It was a pretty frustrating mix of emotions… He moved towards me, and instinctively I backed away, but he kept moving forward. I kept backing up, until I was stopped by one of the bedroom walls.

He walked over to me and leaned his body against mine. Every part of his athletic body was in contact with mine. This sudden closeness made me blush and look away.

He gently placed his hand on my cheek, and he forced me to look him straight in the eye. Then he said to me in a stern voice.

- You belong to me now, and nothing and no one can change that. You are mine, so don't try to run away from me anymore, because even if I have to search every square inch of this earth, I will find you.

He had barely finished his sentence when he eagerly threw himself on my lips, as if he were thirsty and had just discovered a water point.

He was stealing my first real kiss. But without me knowing it, the fact that Derek had just put his lips against mine had created an unbreakable bond between him and me.

I tried to escape his lips, but he held me tight against him. After a few seconds, I let myself go against him, and I responded with fervor to his kiss.

He bit my bottom lip which made me part my lips. Immediately he engulfed his tongue in my mouth, and he came to caress and tickle mine with his. Our tongues began a fierce fight.

This sensual kiss began to make me feel hot, and my heartbeat became rushed. He sucked my upper lips then he came to tickle my palate with his tongue. This fiery kiss continued for a few more minutes, then he finally released me. We were both out of breath, then he stared at me and a big, devastating smile tugged his lips, and he whispered into my ear in a sultry voice.

- Be careful, my dear. The next time you kiss me so passionately, I can't guarantee you can control me...

He then gave me a knowing look. I then felt my face turn crimson, then his face became impassive again, and he said to me just before leaving the room.

- Join me in the living room.

Then he went out, leaving me still all upside down from the fiery and ardent kiss I had just exchanged with him...
