Sold To The Untouchable Alpha novel Chapter 62

[Arissa's POV]

"What do you mean by odd?" Ivan pushed, drawing me out of my head. "Are you still in pain? Do you need more blood? "

"Blood?" I sputtered, my eyes growing wide.

In the way of replying, Ivan pointed to the bite mark and new mate mark on his neck. Shit, had I done that?

"Who marked you?" I asked, trying to feign ignorance. "Why didn't I see it until now?"

I didn't know why, but the thought of having marked Ivan as mine sent a thrill and fear rushing through me.

A wolf's mark was their claim to their mate. It wasn't something to be taken lightly, and I was having a hard time processing the fact that he had allowed me to mark him.

"Do I look like a man whore?" Ivan asked in irritation.

I bit back my laughter. Did he really want me to answer that?

"Nevermind." He huffed, lifting me and setting me on the bed as he stood. "Anyway, this can be discussed later. Right now there is business to attend to. "

"Business?" I asked, perking up.

I felt as though I was newly energized and my being was screaming for revenge.

"What are we doing?" I pushed, trying to contain my adrenaline.

"We are doing some rat hunting." Ivan smirked.

"Oh, I like the sound of that! But can we make a move without proof? "

Elder Theodore was an elder after all. We had to be extra careful about how we went about this. One wrong move could ruin Ivan's reputation forever.

"Aren't you proof enough?" Ivan asked, leaning far enough to look into my eyes. "You are a witness to his treachery."

He had a point, but he was forgetting that I was a disgrace to my family and pack. Would others believe me over him?

"Did you forget I possess truth serum?" Ivan sighed, knocking his forehead against mine.

"Ow!" I hissed, beginning to rub the spot he hit. "What the hell?"

"It seems there still isn't much sense in that head." Ivan smirked.

"So you thought assaulting me would bring about some, old man?"

Gasping, I felt my eyes grow wide as a wicked smile began to creep across Ivan's lips.

"That's two punishments." He husked close to my ear, sending pleasure so strong it about took my breath away, rushing through me.

"Fuck." I growled, trying to stop myself from jumping him. "Stop doing that!"

Despite knowing that the situation was serious, I felt my core throb, begging for Ivan to do something with it. He really did know how to be a damn tease.

"If you keep that up, I will fuck you til you can’t stand."

"Sorry, sorry."

Although that sounded like a really good plan, I knew that taking care of Elder Theodore and Carina was the main priority.

"So, what’s the plan?" I asked, getting comfortable. "Please tell me it is going to be good."
