The Alpha Claimed Me Deeply by Demiah13

Chapter 36

36 : Xavier’s pov: Lily nods, looking upset that I had seen the blood. She always wanted to appear strong even though she was clearly battling a lot inwardly. I couldn’t help but feel like the worst big brother in the world. A big brother sees fit to protect his sister and his family from any danger. But clearly, I had Tailed to protect them, I lear my eyes away from Lily, pained by the sight of her coughing and angered that I couldn’t help her enough. If only I had been a second quicker. Maybe I could’ve stopped her from drinking that tca that day. Hibiscus tea was always her favorite and a weasel, a traitor that once roamed our halls knew it very well. Knew it so well that he saw fit to poison her this way. A day after our father died. One damn day, they couldn’t wait to have me mourn another loss. But fortunately, Lily had only drank a little and found the taste strange. But that little had already seeped into her bloodstream and poison her. 1 She should’ve been dead by now if she had drank all of it. But thankfully the medication Rodrick has been giving her lessens on how quickly the poison takes effect and spreads in her body. 1 But all the doctors I’ve seen kept saying the same frightening thing, she only has a year left before it consumes her body entirely. A year. One damn year. My sister was supposed to find her mate and have kids of her own to torment her like she has done to me. She was supposed to be happy and carefree. But now she was slowly dying, with the hope of ever having a family of her own slip away from her fingers. It was painful enough to know that she had no hope but to see it, was gut wrenching Girls her age are supposed to live their best life with no worries. But Lily….she had a ticking clock on her shoulders weighing her clown. But even with all of that. She still inanages to smile.

“Aw is my poor brother feeling sad for little old me?” Lily giggled, yet coughed at the same time. I rolled my eyes walking over to her and pull her into my arms even though she protested. If I didn’t bring her myself she wouldn’t go to her room. Lily would much rather suffer than rest. Annoying that she is, I couldn’t stand another sight of her blood on her palm or hear the painful coughis, I hated that she was suffering through this all alone. “Brother “Shut up Tilly. I’ll force that medicine down your throat if I have to but you’re going to drink it: either way. And then rest.” I huffed, pulling her sinall body to me and walked to the door. Hearing her hufr, while crossing her arms over her chest, Lily grumbles. ” I feel for poor Aurora who has to put up with your annoying ways. Must you always get your way brother?” I ignore her and she sucks her teeth in annoyance. I felt my lips lifting into a grin at finally irking her. Using one of my hands, I opened the door and walked out with her in my arms. I quickly mind-link Chris to come to her room. He was one of the few that Lily could never slip past. Which made my little sister less fond of the gamma wolf. “Who are you mind-linking?” Lily asked with accusation on the tip of her tongue. Smirking yet keeping my gaze forward, I answered.” Chris. He’ll be the one to guard outside your door. Because he seems to be the only one you can’t sneak past.” I could feel her annoyance grow and that fed my amusement.” You didn’t!” She snarls then coughs, quickly blocking her mouth. “Oh but that I did,” I murmured cockily. If she was hell bent on tormenting me, especially about Aurora, then I only see it right to do her the same with Chris. Two can play this game. “But – but he’s annoying and I hate him,” she ground out trying to get her point across. If only she knew that this was only making Chris be the best person to guard her. Pro “Did he not save you from drowning last week where you sneaked out to swim?” I shook my head slightly. Huffing Lily grumbles. “Doesn’t make me hate him any less. Besides brother, if I have only a year to live

I’m supposed to live it to the fullest. I’m fifteen and I can’t even swim yet!” “You’re fourteen Lily. And the doctor said in order to stop the poison from spreading faster, you shouldn’t be running around but rest in bed.” I said pointedly, kicking open her door. “In other words. Be an immobile idiot.” She grumbles in displeasure Rolling my eyes, I set her down on her feet. “Lily,” “Spare me the pity Xavier I winced slightly when she calls me by my name. She always does when she’s angry with me. “Now that you’ve spoiled my day before it had even begun, how about you take the medication and bring it for me would you? So you can get out of my hair.” She huffs, walking to her bed and plops down. Grumbling how annoying she was under my breath, I walk towards her dresser and grab a hold of the small bottle. Walking back to her I push it into her hands. “You better drink it Lily.” I warned. If I had to force the liquid she hates down her throat, I will. I was not about to lose my sister. “I will. I will!” She sighs, grasping the bottle and makes a disgusted face: Peeking at me under her lashes, she grunts. “Are you going to look at me the entire time I drink it?” I nodded, crossing my arms over my chest. Sighing, Lily shook her head and then shook the bottle slightly. Afterward, she opens it and pours the liquid into the bottle cap until its filled the small space. Making a disgusted noise at the back of her throat, she quickly pushes the cap to her lips, look up and glares at me before tossing her head back and drinking the medicine. “Ughhh. Yuck. Taste like butt.” She makes a funny face as she closes the bottle. Peeking up at me she grumbles. “What are you still doing here? Aren’t you supposed to be with someone right now? Stop pestering me.” I raise a brow. “Are you sure you drank every last drop of the medicine Lily?” My tone had an accusing edge to it. Lily raises both her brows. “Do you take me for a magician? How can I speak if I still have medicine in my mouth? Don’t you think it would’ve slipped at the corners of my mouth by now Xavier?” She snapped, undoubtedly getting annoyed at me. “Well, you can be full of tricks up your sleeves little sister….” I grumble unsure if she actually drank it or

not. Lily groans in annoyance, rising to her feet and then opened her mouth. “Have a look,” opening her mouth wider, she rolls her tongue to show that there was no liquid under it then glares at me when she makes her point clear. “Better Alpha?” She grumbles, walking past me to her dresser.” By the way brother, I couldn’t help but notice that Aurora fears you, a lot. Your own mate fears you,” She grumbles, unpleased. She places the bottle on the surface of the dresser and whirls around. “And your point is?” I grumble.” Everyone fears me Lily.” “And I can’t see any possible reason why they would. I mean look at your face? You’re like a cuddly dog,” Lily jokes, tiny snorts coming between laughs. I growled. Reckon didn’t like being called a dog. Rolling her eyes she walks over to me.” Do you still have that stupid belief that a mate makes you weak?” She whispers, eyes flashing in amusement. I turn around rolling my eyes. “They do. Now I don’t want to discuss this, especially with you.” ” Don’t let her slip from your fingers brother. Maybe she’ll be the one to finally remove that stick that has been up your ass for years now.” Lily grumbles lowly but I heard her. I halt in my footsteps and turn my head slightly to look at her over my shoulder. She looks triumph that she caught my attention.” I can’t accept her Lily.” I murmured the words and they tasted bitter. Il a She rolls her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest.” Why? Is it because she’s not one of us? O ris it that you still think the reason why father died was because mom was murdered? You still think if it weren’t for her death father would’ve stood a chance against the silver blade. The blade was laced with poison brother, there was nothing more he could have done and you know it!” * I stiffen, turning away from her. “That’s where you’re wrong sister. I think that mother was murdered because she was the mate of a powerful Alpha. I can’t have her share my burden Lily, ” Grumbling I started for the door. With my fingers on the door, she whispers. “At least have her make that decision on her own.” Grounding my teeth, I opened the door and walked out. I’m greeted with the sight of my gamma strolling over.” Good luck with her,” I grumble nudging my head to Lily’s room. A playful grin sketches on Chris’s

face.” Still annoyed that you ordered me to guard her door, alpha?” Like his older brother Eli, I could trust Chris. But the two brothers couldn’t be any more different. Whereas Eli is playful and loves to prank everyone around, Chris on the other hand i s very stern for his age of being only just turned eighteen a week ago. So when his lips stretched into a playful smile, I was nearly stunned. But being quick with my emotions, I don’t reveal my shock. I gave a single nod but don’t question Chris’s grin. He quickly rushes towards her door as if he couldn’t wait to annoy her more. Shaking my head, I walked away. My mind quickly filling back with images of how I’d punish Aurora next. The tip of my tongue darts out as I lick my bottom lip, already tasting her. ‘Hmmm that punishment could very well be to our benefit,’ Reckon yaps already knowing that the ‘punishment’ would end up with my face between Aurora’s thighs. ‘Don’t get your hopes up too much. We still need to look for that mark on her cunt,’I grumble, opening the door to my room. I expected her to be on the bed, perhaps sitting down. But my eyes fall on her form, kneeling down, every piece of clothing that once was on her body was not anymore. She was naked. And she smelled aroused. I quickly slam my door locking it so no one would barge in and see what belonged to my eyes only. When she hears me, her head lifts and she looks at me beneath her lashes. “Punish me as you want Alpha,”Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
