Chapter 53

A chill spread goosebumps all over my skin. My eyes doubled in size when a woman came in pushing a tray. The first sign of danger was the smile on her lips and how she entered my room without waiting for my response.

“I didn’t order anything,” I said but she continued to smile, shutting the door behind her.

“It’s a gift for our special guest. The manager heard Cahir Armani’s Luna is staying at our humble hotel so he sent a special meal for our esteemed guest.”

An enemy.

Aristo’s words rang in my head long after I left Alpha Blood and with the sudden appearance of this woman in my locked room, my frayed nerves became even more frayed.

“Thank you but I’m not interested in eating. I’ll call for room service when I’m hungry.”

I was hungry before she came in. I’d planned to go downstairs to explore the hotel grounds after my bath but now, I felt my hands tremble as I gripped my dagger.

“Oh, really? Well, is there anything else you need, Luna Sihana?” She opened the curtains closest to her and I hoped with all my being that Sebastian hadn’t gone far.

“I need you to leave,” I said with a firm tone. She turned to me in surprise but her eyes lowered to my hand behind my back.

“You’re armed.” The corners of her lips pulled up as she advanced on me. I forced my feet to remain rooted to the ground when my flight responses kicked in. “You are not as naive as he said.” She snorted.

The scent on her screamed Alpha. Even with my increased strength from mating with a powerful Alpha, I’d be stupid to think I could take her down. Once again, I prayed Sebastian would arrive soon.

She’d not made any move yet but she would soon. I couldn’t take her down but I had a small dagger that could injure her before I made a run for it. Hopefully, my guard was close.

“Whatever you have planned, I can assure you, you’ll regret it,” I said through gritted teeth.

“Will I?” She smirked at me, her blue eyes turning red as amusement resounding in her voice. I could feel the air turn tense as she dropped all pretence. My omega senses caught the instant change in her demeanour.

I’d seen one too many blows aimed at my head so I knew to dodge. Adrenaline kicked in but rather than embolden me, it triggered my flight responses. While the intruder stumbled from the force with which she swung at me only to miss, I raised the dagger and made to stab at her. Her reflexes were a hundred times quicker than mine so she dodged my attack, grabbed my arm and brought me to the ground.

The air in my lungs whooshed out as my back slammed against the hard ground. I heard something crack but I ignored it, reaching for the knife that slipped my grip as I fell. Her foot came to my face and I looked up to see a sadistic gleam in her eyes. She had me where she wanted me.

“Won’t you beg for your life?” She kicked my weapon out of reach and stepped on my chest. She spoke as if we were playing a fun game, looked at me like I was nothing but a toy to amuse her – and I very well could be. She had a maniacal look about her and I could only begin to guess what this tall and lanky woman was capable of.

“If you beg nicely -” She pressed down harder with her foot. “If you beg nicely, I may treat you better than a dog.”

Her words were a jumbled mess in my mind. A thousand thoughts flashed through my mind as my eyes darted across the room looking for a possible escape. Her feet on my chest sent sharp stabs of pain through my body,

‘Asena,’ I called my wolf who was on high alert. ‘We’re going to shift,’ I informed my wolf. My only asset at this point was a quick shift which I could use to take the woman by surprise.

‘No, it’ll be fatal if she nicks us mid-shift.’ Shit. I’d be more vulnerable during a shift but my shifts were quick. Still, I couldn’t shift faster than she could cut me.

“Are you ignoring me right now?” She took her foot off my chest and crushed the wrist of my hand which had been inching above my head for something to grab. “You’re not much fun.” She made a disapproving sound as she stepped back. With a healing wrist and a burning chest, I staggered to my feet, grabbing a chair as I came up.

Her eyes were fixated on me, glimmering with amusement and a faint madness. I’d never seen this woman in my life so why did she look at me as if I was her biggest enemy!? It was only a few hours since I entered my room and I was already being attacked.

“Fuck you,” I hissed, grabbing the wooden chair I used as support and flinging it into her face with all my might. Her mouth rounded in a soundless gasp as the chair smacked into her and knocked her down. She hit the ground with a thud and I rushed to the door. The handle jiggled but the door did not open.

“Oh, you want to play.” I heard an ominous voice from behind me. My stomach rolled and my fingers froze around the doorknob.

I turned ever so slowly to see the woman back on her feet with a scratch on her forehead and the side of her lips dripping with blood. She wiped the blood and popped her finger into her mouth, her eyes sparkling.

I swallowed through a dry throat, a weight on my chest and my fingers stiff and sweaty around the doorknob.

“This should be fun.” She got closer to me with her eyes flashing between red and blue like a fucking warning sign.

“Help!” I screamed, banging on the door. “Somebody -” The rest of my words were lost as a dizzying spell hit me, causing me to stagger to the side. A fist had connected with the back of my head and it made me see stars as I stumbled.

The door burst open at that moment

and I heaved a sigh of relief but it
