"Do you trust me?" He whispered once more.But I could barely hear the words. The myriad of emotions that danced in his eyes captured me like a spell and I couldn't find my lungs to breathe. They were missing now that I needed them the most. He stepped aside and soon his fingers were off me, his eyes too. "Do you trust me?" He repeated, staring after the blank floor now between us as if he was steeling himself for the answer he already knew was coming."I-I-I don't know!" I suddenly found my voice. He nodded then turned on his way out. before he stopped. Then whipped his head toward me in a swift motion, with raw urgency. Hie blue eyes lit up like electroity"You came for me" His voice was coarse and thick with emotions and restraint ad he continued. "I can still smell it all over you. You poured out like a sweet little thing for me." He took a step toward me and a step back immediately, he seemed to be in a confused state of what to do. He shook his head and once more turned to me
Bonus Chapter Lucas’s POV" Get Out Now!' I growled like the beast I was wrestling with inside. My wolf was threatening to take over and claim her immediately as the sweet smell of her arousal wafted through the air. It took every single ounce of self-control to hold back the beast in me from eating her flesh and marking her as mine. But I didn't want it to be done that way, not when so many things were unsettled and unclear, not when I wasn't even sure she wanted me at all. But perhaps want was too far-fetched. I wanted to know if she trusted me. If she has believed a single word that came out of my lips. Seeing her in the arms of Mac tainted the sacred kiss we once shared and It made me so reluctant to repeat the cause of action but my body couldn't stay so far away from her, not when she was near me smelling like the most lovely thing on the planet. I needed to know that she was mine and mine alone, I couldn't bear to share her, to see her this moment in my arms and the next mom
Bonus Chapter Lucas’s POVShit!I inhaled deeply and straightened my back, mentally preparing myself for what I was about to do. I was no coward and if this was what it took to finally know where I stand then it had to be done. I changed my stance from the relaxed one to a rigid and professional one at once. "Yeah, we have some pack members in Germany working to close the deal," I said and then there was silence.While I nodded as though Mark was saying something sensible to me. In those moments of silence, I prayed for her to walk in, to open the door, or say something because I could now smell her just outside the door. The lack of action on her path told me everything I needed to hear. She was straining her ears against the door, she was eavesdropping. DamnSomething broke in my chest, the sound was quiet but I felt it as sharp as the loudest crack. But I had to keep going. I gritted my teeth "Oh no no, the deal is almost sealed. we are merely in negotiations with the alpha on h
Fiona's POVI was a crying mess by the time I got into the room and landed on my bed and Lola rushed to me as if she knew everything that just occured. She held me while I broke down like a confused person who in all fairness I was, and although I could smell curiosity washing off her in waves she didn't ask any question at the time. She only held me and stroked my hair while I released something I didn't even know I had to realise till I finally fell asleep. My eyes were raw the moment I opened them, I could tell they were swollen without looking at any mirror but Thankfully there were no classes till two days so I was happy to look like a ghost to only Lola and well Charles. Because who knew if he was coming or not.Speaking of Lola, I didn't know how to break her heart by telling her what I found about Charles, especially since a part of me wanted to believe that this time it was all real, afterall Charles didn't start dating her immediately he met me, but months after. "Are yo
Two weeks had passed since I heard from Mac and Lucas. And while I had no expectations but secret hope I fanned alive to hear from Lucas, I was surly disappointed in Mac. One second he was acting as though I was the orbit that span his world, and next we go without talking for weeks and nothing!It wasn't until Lola's careful chide that I realized how deep I had gone in all of this, My emotions were dug into the hands of this mess and I didn't know how to entangle it. My plan was simple now, Mac was silent so maybe I can go to him, or would it be wiser I wait? Despite my conscience the information I had on Lucas made my feel a little relief in the fact that Mac couldn't do away with me so easily, now that I had something of his interest, so he better have something important to tell me about the reason he has been as silent as a ghost. "Psss, he's watching you" Someone whispered from beside me, I looked up and met the stern face of the lecturer at my wandering gaze and embrassment
My morning started like every other morning in my recent routine of living. I awoke slowly and painfully because my alarm was threatening to tear my ear off to a soundly sleeping Lola. I had my bath first before yanking her from her bed to have her own bath.We both groggily got dressed, prepared for our morning lectures, and walked the way to the class, yawning away and fighting the sleep that still lived in our eyes. We had different lectures till noon. In my lectures, I tried to pay attention and not think about the fact that Mac had not responded to my text message or the fact that Lucas had stayed true to his words, just as I suspected. When finally, when the stream of classes ended, we met up and ate my favorite thing to eat, and then we headed back to our dorm.And this is where things changed drastically; we got back to our dorms, and a package was sitting just outside the door waiting for my attention. My first instinct was to jump in fear before Lola opened the door. Then
I could hardly believe my eyes as Mac led me toward a grand beach. I stared down at my outfit, suddenly feeling inadequately dressed for a beach outing in the dress I wore. If we were going to a beach, why did he send a dress like this and request I wear it?The cold evening breeze carried the salty taste of the water as it blew across. It stung my cheeks and made my nose cold; I didn't know why I felt so cold when the weather was fair. The breeze was merely flirting, so why was my body a mess? I bit the insides of my cheek to hold back the questions in my head. As usual, Mac was busy with something on his phone, His head was bowed, and his eye was focused on the phone screen, yet somehow he knew just where he was headed, but I had no idea if he remembered me or if I had completely vanished from his thought process and mind. I shuffled my feet as his pace picked up. His strides were effortlessly long, and I found myself walking twice as many steps to keep up pace with him."Are we sta
I was lost in my own head, deep in my thoughts, and staring with searching eyes when I heard his deep voice bring me out of the state I had gone. "Get up; let us dance," Mac commanded. I stood up with wobbly legs, and as if he knew, he caught my hand and led me to the center of the room. The music was suddenly loud. One moment, I was fidgeting anxiously on my feet with a million and one different thoughts; the next, Mac's hands were in mine, and our feet shuffled as we danced through the aqua floor and I had just one thought; Is this a dream? His large hands were firm on my waist. The friction of his hard palms against my silky dress sent sparks flying in numerous directions in my body and my brain haywire. I tried and failed to keep my eyes open as we swayed softly. This was almost romantic. Somewhere along the line of tonight, I had forgotten how to feel and just what I felt. "Do you know why I prepared all this tonight?" Mac asked all of a sudden. I opened my eyes slowly to h
