HER ALPHA'S CARNAL SINS
Chapter 157: Kissing his Ex

Chapter 157: Kissing his Ex

Royce choked on his saliva, and a few others turned to Talia like she was crazy or blind. Cardin had the same expression as well.

Seriously?

"Guys, it’s just a kiss. Why are you over reacting so much?" Hakura asked irritatingly.

"I guess you could say we’re over reacting," Brittany pointed out. "But it seemed obvious that she was going to choose her boyfriend." She glared at Talia. "What the f**k, Talia?"

"She could be joking," Nancy said, avoiding Cardin’s dark gaze. "Right?"

Cardin glanced to the side to see Hakura place the tip of her finger on the tip of her tongue like she was cooling off a hot finger, ’burned by their words’. She winked at him in mockery, and he turned away after shooting her a piercing gaze.

"Okay... what is going on?" Cardin announced, clearly irritated.

Talia parted her lips to explain...

"I’d also like to know as well." Raiden chipped in.

"Why don’t I just tell everyone. I mean... since you don’t seem to have a single bit of conscience in you, everyone should know, right?" John said, and Talia’s eyes widened.

"First off, Talia and my brother here are dating," Everyone turned to Jephthah who was leaning back against the tree, chin up, hand across a drawn up knee. "Well actually... there were dating, not until tonight."

"What?" Daniel yelled.

"You mean... when you two left together, when I thought you two were going to make up from one silly fight, you actually broke up?" Royce asked, and Talia shuddered under his dark gaze.

"What?" Daniel yelled again.

Barton smirked, amusement in his eyes as he asked a question which seemed like Daniel wanted to ask but couldn’t, due to shock.

"I knew you two were close, but dating? Jephthah? When did all these happen?"

"During your Alpha Naming ceremony." John casually replied.

"Seriously?"

"A lot of things happened that night." Koan whispered, loud enough for Nancy to hear, and she gave him a bashful smile before they entwined their hands again.

"Well, it hasn’t been a month yet. How come you two just broke up?" Liliana curiously asked.

"Well that’s all I know. They were acting childish, and just broke up. If they knew they weren’t ready for a relationship, and weren’t ready for a heartbreak either, they shouldn’t have dated in the first place," John glared at Talia. "But kissing someone else Infront of your ex? I rather you eat the left overs off that stick."

Cursing, both from anger and embrassment, Cardin got up and left the circle.

"Cardin." Talia called, but he ignored her. He was clearly angry.

Hakura just got up and went after him, but everyone was so involved in Talia and Jephthah’s drama, that they didn’t notice.

"You can’t tell me what to do," Talia fired, brows furrowing in anger. "And why blame me for the breakup? Did you care to listen to my side of the story."

"So now, someone cares about listening to people’s side of the story." Jephthah suddenly scoffed with a sneering tone.

"I wasn’t talking to you." She retorted.

"Grow up." He fired.

"Shut up." She snapped, and he just rolled his eyes, leaning back on the tree as he said,

"Well, those dried up left overs aren’t going to eat themselves, because we both know you’re not doing the dare."

"I can’t watch this." Nancy whispered, eyes already brimming with tears watching them fight., and it was just the same as the others who knew just how close they were. And now, they were just spectators to the both of them quarrelling with a fire sparking between them.

"Then maybe I’m not going to play anymore." She mumbled before getting up and leaving.

"Could you be any more immature, Talia." Jephthah said behind her, but she just walked away.

When he made to go after her, John held his hand.

"You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to."

Jephthah was touched by his protective twin’s concern, but he just managed a smile.

"I’ll be okay."

"The doctor said your disorder will only get worse if you— "

Jephthah grabbed John’s shoulder.

"I know what he said John. I’m only going to talk to her." He muttered, and with a pat, he left before Nancy could.

"This is going to be a loooong night." Brittany mumbled, falling back into Royce who draped his arm over her

"I hope it will lead to a better day." Daniel said, and everyone turned a bit solemn.

"Where’s Hakura?"

"She left when Cardin did. I think she’s headed back to Ruby Stone’s." Koan who had noticed her leave, replied, burying his nose in the nape of Nancy’s neck as she sat between his legs, licking the mark he had placed on her.

"With Cardin? Seriously?" John frowned a bit, but Liliana just shrugged while the rest didn’t really care.

"Hey pretty face." Hakura drawled, stepping out from the bushes to see Cardin seated on a log of wood.

For a split second, he was disappointed that it wasn’t Talia who came running after him, but turned curious the moment he heard the familiar low, seductive voice, almost like she was singing.

He didn’t bother to turn because she was already standing right Infront of him.

"Where have you been all my life?" She cooed.

He snorted.

"Well, I’m ready to go." She announced, putting her hands on her hips.

He shot her an inquisitive, irritated glance.

"Go where?"

"Back to Ruby Stone’s. To get some food supplies and the rest."

"So?" he turned away from her. "Go."

"Yeah. I’m only teleporting the poor soul who’s going to get all those things." She scrutinized her nails, missing his eyes raking over her before he glanced away.

"I’m the not the only one in the entire forest. You could ask any other person, because I’m not moving from this spot."

"Pfffft," She stiffled a laugh, pretending to wipe tears off the edge of her eyes. "Well, everyone’s caught up in some stupid teen love drama, and I saw your pathetic soul sitting all alone here, and I thought you’d be the perfect one for me." She finished off dramatically, batting her long lashes at him in mock love.

"Good luck moving me from this spot." Cardin said with a smirk, amused by her sharp mouth.

"Aw Sweetie," She grabbed his colar, smoothing it properly along the line of his shirt, before leaning back. "I don’t even have to touch you."

The next moment, he felt a fluttering feeling in his stomach and his feet leaving the air for a few seconds, and he opened his eyes to see Hakura still standing there, a daring smirk on her face.

"What did you do... " he froze, noticing a demolished building behind her.

What the- ?

He glanced around to see that they were at Ruby Stone’s pack, at the Alpha’s domain.

"You crazy bi*ch." He cursed, glaring at her.

"Language, honey. Or I might bite off that pretty mouth of yours." She whispered, walking past him without breaking her gaze, only turning to sway her hips for his exclusive view.

He followed her, a smirk on his lips contrary to what she just said.

*

"Stop stalking me." Talia growled, aware that he had been following her all these while.

Jephthah finally emerged from the trees, a knowing look on his face, a brow raised .

"Let’s talk."

She threw her hands up In frustration.

"I’m not doing this with you Jephth... " She stepped back when he took a step close to her. "Hey. Don’t come any close," She frowned. "S- stop."

But he didn’t listen, and kept walking forward, taking a step closer for each step she took backwards, until she was sandwich between him and a tree, and didn’t realize it until she felt the hard bark against her body.

"Wh..." She turned to the side in shock, but before she could move, he braced his two hands at the two sides next to her head, leaning down to kiss her.

"Mmm." She began to struggle, clearly still angry, but he didn’t move, angling his head to the side to deepen the kiss, moving close.

When he pulled back, just an inch away to stare at her, she was flushed and breathless, but a frown was soon etched on her face once again.

"You’re invading my space and... mmmm!" she gasped into the kiss as he pressed his lips to hers again, this time snaking his tongue in to curl around hers, bringing down a hand to cup her face.

She pushed him back, but he didn’t budge, only moving his face back to stare quietly at her. Talia huffed, red in the face as he was before she brought down the hand cup cupping her face.

"I don’t even... "

He kissed her again, tilting his head the other way, taking her bottom lip between his lips and softly sucking on it. Despite her grip on his shirt, aiming to push him away, she only drew him close, moaning softly into the kiss.

When he pulled back, she raked her hair away from her face, avoiding his eyes, but unlike the other time she didn’t blow a fuse and stayed quiet.

"Are you ready to talk now?" He quietly asked. "Or are you going to lecture me about kissing my ex?"
