The Alpha King Is My Second Chance Mate Chapter 99

Quinn threw Zayd’s arm off of her as soon as she felt his hard-on against her thigh, rolling off the bed. His eyes chased her as she walked towards the bathroom, and then he sat up, shuffling off the bed too.

His steps mirrored hers, but before he could step foot into the bathroom, the door slammed shut in his face and then clicked locked. He laughed, flatting his palms against the door. “Come on, Quinn…do you have to be stubborn on the day after our mating ceremony?”

Quinn clicked her tongue, she was standing right behind the door, smirking smugly. “I told you, didn’t I? One of these days you’ll be outside knocking until I’m done…it’s today.”

“You’re joking, aren’t you? Do it tomorrow.”

“You’ll be too prepared…I don’t like that.”

Zayd groaned. “I just want to brush my teeth, I swear.”

“Exactly what you said last time.”

“No…this time I added the I swear.”

Quinn rolled her eyes. “Go away, Zayd.”

He knocked once and then twice, turning the knob in vain. “I don’t want to. Just open the door, I wanna check on something.”

“Did you just come up with a new excuse? How lovely. What do you want to check on?”

“You…” His voice deepened, becoming raspy. “Aren’t you the only thing important to me in there?”

Quinn cleared her throat, leaning back against the door. “Do you think I’m a baby?”

“You’re my baby.”

“I don’t think so, that’s not what I am to you. If you tell me what I want to hear, I’ll open the door.”

“Are teasing me right now.” He chuckled. “It’s sexy.”

“I learned from the best; the god of teasing…and why is everything is sexy to you?”

“As long as it concerns you, it’ll be sexy.”

“Likewise…” Quinn confessed. “But get back to the point, tell me, what am I to you?”

“My bundle of flames?”

“No…”

“My angel?”

“No, Zayd!”

“My little red?”

“Nope…”

“Then…” He paused. “My mate?”

“Close…but I’ve been promoted now.”

“My luna?!”

He sounded so sure this time, and Quinn laughed, clicking the door unlocked. She moved away from it, so he could open it without hurting her.

He did, eyes clashing with hers almost immediately. She looked away, moving to stand in front of the sink, reaching for her toothbrush. “You’re not wrong, but you’re not completely right though. I only opened the door because you put in a little effort.”

Zayd closed the door and walked up behind her, caging her between his arms as he held on to the rim of the sink. “What’s the right answer, then?”

Quinn turned towards him, tipping up on her toes to whisper in his ears. “I’m your owner now…” She tapped the mark on his neck. “This is proof of it.”

“Damn…” Zayd squeezed the thick surface, watching as she twisted away from him with a smirk on those flawless lips. She really did learn from the best…who else but him could’ve taught her to do something like this?

She grabbed for the toothpaste, squeezing some on the toothbrush in her hand. Zayd shifted from behind her to stand beside her. “This is…your teasing hurts way more than mine does…not fair.” His hand reached out, but instead of grabbing his toothbrush like he’d initially planned, it redirected to slam against her ass cheeks.

She yelped out in surprise, turning to glare at him with the toothbrush in her mouth. “Asshole…”

The word came out muffled, but he heard it. “Am I going to have to suffer like this every morning to come into my own bathroom?”

Quinn pulled the toothbrush out of her mouth. “Our bathroom…” She corrected him. “You’re the one who wanted to share a room. Share fairly, the bathroom is also mine…which means I can also demand privacy when I’m in it.”

“Privacy from me? Somebody you claim to own.” His hand smoothed over the flushed skin, rubbing and squeezing it.

Quinn slapped at his hand, but he didn’t move it. “Yes…especially from you.”

Zayd slapped her again, lighter this time. The sound was mesmerizing, but the feel beneath his hand affected him even more. Her skin was so soft and smooth. “Bear in mind that it’s vice versa…I f*cking own you too. Privacy shouldn’t even be a word between us.”

His voice and his words had Quinn shifting from foot to foot, while trying her best to keep her thighs closed…to keep the scent of her arousal from spreading. “Just shut up and brush your teeth. Stop feeling up my ass too.”

Zayd pulled his hand back. “Alright…don’t want you to wet yourself and then blame it on me.” He grabbed his toothbrush, lining the straws with toothpaste before shoving it into his mouth.

Quinn rolled her eyes, mirroring his actions.

Together, they brushed their teeth and showered…they might’ve messed around until they had another naughty session instigated by Zayd, and then they’d gotten dressed and collected breakfast from a blonde girl who knocked on the door.

When they returned to the bed, Quinn knitted her brows at him. “Where’s Larna…? I haven’t seen her since I came back.”

Zayd shrugged, reaching for a toasted bread. “She’s dead.”

Quinn’s eyes widened, and her heart felt like it had stopped beating for a second. “W-What? Larna’s dead? When? H-How…?”

“I killed her.”

Quinn froze. “Why would you…? Why’d you do that?”

“She was in league with your father, she was Jake’s beta’s mate…a spy from their side. She drugged my patrollers the night you were taken so it’d be easier for your father to take you.”

“I…oh…” Quinn’s shoulders sagged. It was hard to believe. Although she hadn’t been close to Larna, she’d seen her every day. She was the one who brought her clothes and food, and she was nice…

She seemed like someone who had a good soul, and she might’ve had a good soul, but it’s not rare for people to be faced with dangerous and unavoidable situations. She did what any mate would do, because Quinn would’ve definitely become a spy if it meant saving Zayd from a greater enemy…

And Zayd was an enemy to Jake’s pack…to Larna's mate’s pack…she’d done something evil and yet understandable.

Quinn sighed and Zayd reached forward to ruffle her hair. “Don’t think about it too much, it wasn’t your fault. None of what happened or what will happen is your fault…and in the long run, don’t call me cruel for giving people their karma, don’t hate me either.”

“How could I ever hate you? It might hurt, but you killed her to protect me.”

“You’re right, and I’d do worst.” He opened his arms, beckoning her between them. “Come here.”

Quinn slid into his arms, and he held her tight against him. “I know you don’t like hurting people, I’ve observed that the night we met when you let those three rogues get away, but there are people who actually deserve to die. People who won’t stop hurting you until they perish. You don’t have to get rid of them yourself…as your alpha, I’ll gladly do it for you. As long as I’m around, nobody will ever hurt you again…unlike before, I trust nobody when it comes to you.

”

Quinn held his hand that rested against her stomach. “Okay…and you’re the only person I trust.”

“That’s exactly how it should be.” He kissed her cheek just before taking a bite out of the bread in his free hand. “What are we doing today? I’m gonna be free, but I’ll have to go to the office tomorrow, Frederick said more work has been filing in ever since we kicked Jake’s ass. Nothing I haven’t done before, but it was a little special this time around according to them. The yearly meet and greet party is just around the corner. All the top packs will be there, that too has been adding work on my plate.”

“I haven’t been there,” Quinn confessed. “The annual meet and greet, I mean. Jeo’s pack was never qualified to go, you turned down our applications. So mean.”

Zayd laughed. “I’m glad you’ve never gone there before, especially with him. You’ll be going with me this year, you’ll experience it for the first time with me. It’s boring though, it’s just a bunch of cocky alphas standing around with their beta, gammas and mates…drinking wine and then having dinner. There will be a couple of entertainers and music will also be played all throughout the night…it’ll probably be better now since you’ll be there.”

Quinn smiled. “You think so?”

“I know so.”

She gave his hand a squeeze, biting into the bread when he brought it to her lips. “As for what we can do today, how about visiting the training grounds? The doctor told me to exercise my wolf and check back with him within a week.”

“Sounds fun…although you wouldn’t be able to beat me up.”

“I know that, but I will surely try.”

“Just as I expected from this hot little bundle of flames.”
