The Female Alpha You Can't Tame

Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Patience, my male

Throughout the ride, our mouths never stop the chatter. He tells me of the days during his childhood he spent here, pointing at and explaining the famous spots on the way. His favorite memories are written in these waters. I tell him of all the street food I want to try and he teaches me how to pronounce them in Italian.

"Proverà a ordinare in italiano. Per favore sii paziente con lei." Deimos speaks to the vendor as I look around the market Deimos has brought me to. It’s a traditional Italian market with a mix of a carnival.

"Go ahead, Lumina." He says to me as I look towards the assortment of pastries trying to figure out which one I know and want to try.

"P-Posso avere il chio .... no wait .... chiuchera?" I jumble up the words mixing up Italian and English hoping the vendor would understand the words that I probably just brutally murdered.

Deimos lets out a hearty laugh as the vendor looks extremely confused. "Point the pastry to me, Lumina." He says.

I quickly place my finger on the glass showing him the pastry. "Chiuchera!" I say my head held high trying to portray my confidence. Deimos laughs again.

"Try again. I taught this to you in the car." He says smiling.

"Chiu-" I begin as he cuts me off.

"Chia." He corrects my beginning of the word.

"Chiacher-" I try again.

"Chiacchie-" He helps me giving me hints.

"Chiacchie?" I ask him confused trying hard to remember the word. The vendor and Deimos wait patiently for me.

"Si. Chiacchie." He responds. I frown, running it through my memory. It takes a while and I finally remember it.

"Oh! Oh! I got it! Chiacchiere!" I say jumping up and down as Deimos nods smiling.

"Good girl. Now try again." He says nodding towards the vendor.

Clearing my throat, straightening my back I order again. "Vorrei comprare chiacchiere per favore." I order and the vendor chuckles and picks up the thongs.

"Quanti?" The vendor asks.

"Otto." I reply and look up at Deimos who looks down at me possessing a proud smile across his face.

(Eight)

"Well done. Here’s your present." He says grabbing my cheeks capturing my lips in a gentle but passionate kiss melting me from within.

Munching on the pastry, Deimos guides me through the stalls. The stalls are decorated beautifully with a myriad of colors. It’s quite a sight to see. We are protected from the heat of the sun through the layers of material that hang through the tents helping shade the pathway. I stop in my tracks when my eyes find a dress and accessory stall and I quickly point towards it.

He takes me there without hesitation quickly abiding to my request. Halfway there a male almost bumps into me but Deimos blocks it whilst pulling me to him. "Guarda dove stai andando." He says to the male, tone stern as a small growl rumbles through his chest.

The male’s eyes widen as he flinches, nods, and quickly scurries away running from the burning stare of Deimos.

I scan through the male’s section to find something for him. The last time we went to a market back home he purchased a necklace for me and this time I want to get him something.

I find a beautiful pink shirt with a floral pattern. Something Deimos would rather die than wear. Wanting to tease him I quickly grab it whilst placing it over his chest. His eyes widen as it finds the feminine shirt over his body.

"I like this. What do you think?" I ask him raking my eyes over his body acting like I love it.

"I-I don’t think this is-" He begins, showing utter disapproval whilst shaking his head as I cut him off.

"I would love it if you wore it for me." I whisper feigning innocence to gauge his reaction.

"I like it! I will wear it. Do you want me to wear it now? I can if that’s what you want. I shall go buy it right away." He says taking out the wallet from his back pocket whilst checking the price but stops when he hears my laugh, frowning confused.

"Deimos! I was just playing around with you!" I continue laughing, a laugh from within my belly as his confused eyes turn into one filled with a playful mischievous light.

Shifting closer to me looking into my eyes, his palm meets with the flesh of my ass. I gasp with surprise as he leans closer to my ear and whispers, "Bad girl." I blush deeply, even though the inside of this stall is secluded his chosen method of punishment makes me burn from within.

"Do that again, I will make sure everyone can see and hear your punishment." He says grabbing my hand walking out of the stall as I bite my lip and follow, a growing need filling my depths.

"Wait, I still want to get you something." I tell him trying to get away from his hold.

"I don’t want anything, Lumina. I already have everything I need." He says looking back at me.

He guides me into a restaurant for lunch and I cannot help but be in awe of the setting.

It was the first time I had a meal with my mate at a restaurant and I didn’t hide my contentment. It was exciting that the dreams I dreamt of were all coming true. Even simple things like him holding my hand, him being protective over me, him paying for me though I could too.

"So which one?" Deimos asks me.

"Patience, my male." I whisper.

"We have been here for ten minutes already, mate." He says with a hint of teasing.

"Fine! Vanilla it is." I say wetting my lips excited to devourer the soft-looking ice cream that seems to melt in one’s mouth.

He orders for me and quickly gives me the cone waiting for his. I sink my teeth into the gelato savoring the taste as my eyes scan all the couples at the carnival. I watch one particular couple who are eating gelato just like us. The female seems to have some cream on his face and the male gently wipes it off with his fingers.

I look back up at Deimos who is enjoying his cone, tapping away on his phone. I lift the cone to my face and push it against the side of my mouth. Clearing my throat giving him the perfect view of the spot I feign innocence. I feel playful today, perhaps because my heart is with joy.

I feel his eyes on me and I look towards him, "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask him.

His lips tilt up in a knowing smirk. Bending down to my level his hot tongue slowly licks off the cream I put from the side of my mouth. My eyes widen and I look back at him. This male of mine always seems to be playing his own game never doing what I think would happen.

"What? Did you think I was like that male over there, to gently remove the cream you purposely put with my fingers?" He asks with a teasing smile and I quickly look down at my feet, cheeks burning hot. He saw, he knew. I smile up at him and he smiles back with gentle eyes.

Sudden music takes my attention from him. I look around and find some kind of a ride with horses. A lot of excited pups are screaming and running towards it. It circles in slow motion and the horses go up and down. I look up at and with one look Deimos understands and nods with a smile.

"Goddess look! Deimos, look at me. I am riding a horse! Are you looking?" I scream angling my head to look at him.

"I am looking, my female." He chuckles whilst capturing photos of me on his phone.

"I want to ride this all day!" I say. It is so fun; the horse carries my body up and brings in down while everyone present on the ride is being rotated 360 degrees. This ride is called the carousel. I have never seen or knew something like this existed.

"Come down, Lumina. I shall give you something else to ride on." He says with a teasing smirk. The females on the ride hear him with a gasp and the juveniles turn red blushing deep. The males clear their throat and look away while I hide my face in embarrassment leaving me no option but to leave the ride as soon as possible.

As the sun sets and the sky sleeps with the stars, Deimos and I walk hand in hand whilst the excitement calms down and silent peace takes over. I had a wonderful day. I scan my surroundings to see pups sleeping on their mother’s shoulders worn out by the day.

More families have gathered now, couples leaving. I think it’s best for us to leave as well. Sadness takes over me again as I see them, I bite my lower lip and look away. Perhaps someday.

"Lumina." My male calls out to me gently. "Let’s go ride the Ferris wheel. You will love it." He quickly pushes through the small crowd guiding us to the ride.

A male holds his palm out to for us to wait and as a small carriage parks into view he gives us a nod to enter whilst the glass doors slide open.

As soon as we are seated, the wheel moves slowly until the lights and people become small miniatures. "Wow." I whisper keeping my palms upon the glass.

"Do you like it?" He asks and I smile nodding.

"I love it. Today has been perfect." I whisper. There is tension illuminating from him. I feel its strength hitting my aura.

"My female." He whispers shifting closer to me, grabbing my jaw to look at him as he bends down to capture my lips in his.

He takes it slow, savoring me softly. His palms holding my jaw thumb sliding across my cheekbone. As I open my eyes to look at him, his face masked with a frown, fingers trembling as he kisses me. This is a kiss of fear.

"Deim-" He doesn’t let me speak as he pushes his mouth deeper into mine. Our lips make love but his mind shatters. His body showing me his truth.

I push him away slowly; his eyes are closed and he shivers with clenched fists. I slowly lift my palms holding this face in my hands.

"Look at me." I whisper and he opens his eyes looking straight into mine. "What’s wrong, my male?" I ask him, my tone soft as I am speaking to an afraid pup.

"If it’s pups you want, Lumina. I’ll give them to you. If it’s the world, I shall place it at your feet. If it’s my soul you need, take it. You can have it all. All of me. As long as you stay." He whispers, the fear he had hidden well stepping into light.
