CRUZ’S POV

As I watched her stand there, I could feel all of my inside melt like jelly out of relief. I was glad that she was alive and healthy. Although I could notice the dark circles under her eyes.

“Huh! I think you are in wrong house.” The male holding her waist responded and I felt my blood boil so high that I had to drag in a breathe to stop myself from launching forward and breaking all of his bones, for touching her.

No male had the right to touch Eleanor except myself.

“No. I think you have the wrong bride. This one is mine.” I responded, even though I knew it sounded rude.

Ignoring his intense gaze and confused expression, I made my way forward and placed my palm on her cheek.

“You good, babe?” I asked and watched her nod, her eyes getting all teary but she doesn’t blink.

“What…what are you doing here?” She questioned, her voice cracking and I raised my eye brow a little.

“To save you, angel. Or do you want me here?” I asked and watched her stare blankly away.

    AUTHOR’S POV“I understand that you are angry, El, but can we at least talk in a place more private?” He asked and got no response for a while.“Damon, please take me to my room.” She said and soon Damon held her waist and her right hand. “Cruz, come with me.” She added.For so long she had imagined what it would be like when she would meet him again. She had daydreamed for how they would run into each other arms and shower one another with kisses. But now, all she wanted was to hit him and make him feel as much pain as she did.“You can leave us now, Damon.” Eleanor said the second her butt touched the bed.Damon opened his mouth to protest but stopped the second he remembered her words. She didn’t love him and she never would. Nothing he said or did would change the fact that she had feelings for someone else.“Okay.” Damon responded then walked out.Cruz’s eyes trailed over her once bright face. She used to look so full of life and…“Does your wife know you are here? Or are you de

In fact it had taken him more seconds than usual to process them and soon he was standing in front of her.“I would love to talk to her alone so please step aside.” Damon informed as he sent Cruz a death stare.“Fine then, I will be over there.” Cruz informed and ran his palm over Eleanor’s hair before leaning in. “Call me when you need me.” He whispered and watched her nod gently.Cruz took one last glance at the male who had tried taking his bride and threw him a smirk before walking away. His chest almost exploding with joy.She was back. She was going home with him and now his home would be home again.“You can’t just

    ELEANOR’S POV“Are you sure you are making the right choice?” Damon asked for the thirtieth time in the last hour and now I was no longer sure if I was.“Do you think I’m not?” I threw at him, wanting to know what his own opinion would be.“He abandoned you, El. He can do that anytime and you know that.” He pointed out while I stared at the darkness.Let me be your eyes, El.Cruz’s words replayed in my mind.“What if he is sorry? Sober? Anything?” I said, trying to defend him or was it myself?I needed badly to prove to myself that I wasn’t just some broken female who lacked fatherly love and badly craved it enough to settle for anything.“What if he is not?” Damon attacked and I could sense the worry in his voice, laced with disappointment. “You can’t just run back into his arms, El. Not after all these while.” He added causing me to nod as I bit on my lower lip again.“I can. I want to do this, Dam, please.” I responded and heard him sigh frustratedly before his steps get closer.“I

I couldn’t bring myself to say anything because for a weird reason, I felt shy. Not uncomfortable.My body, up to my breasts, hit the warm water and I felt my nerves relax.“Let me know when you feel uncomfortable, okay?” He said and I nodded briefly. I couldn’t tell what he was doing but soon the smell of Lavender filled my nostrils before his palms came in contact with my body again as he scrubbed it gently. It felt so good to have someone wash me up. Ever since I lost my sight, I had refused to let anyone bathe for me. I always instead of doing that myself and most times it was an uncomfortable thing.His palms found my neck and massaged them briefly, causing a low moan to escape through my pass.

I knew he made the first move.” He said, wanting to clear the air and her conscience.Eleanor attempted to say something and that would require spitting him out.“Shh! Say nothing. Just stay still like the obedient little doll you are.” He ordered and El nodded firmly. “That’s my good girl.” He added and started to move in and out. His butt clenching tightly as he did.“Fuck, El. Fuck!” He cussed, his hand holding her head in place while he continued to fuck her mouth faster and deeper.Eleanor’s eyes stung with tears, the pain in my throat getting worse and just like a maniac’s doll, she liked it, every single part of it caused her woman to drool some more.His waist rotating as he went while her fingernails dug into her thighs in order to spread more pain through her.

Why use just her when I use you both? When can I finally get to rule the world?” He responded, a smirk curling up his lips.“Let her be, Damon. If you are truly a man, then face me!” Cruz dared, his pitch high as he struggled to set himself free.Damon let out a dry laugh.“A god, Cruz. That is what I will become.” He said pridefully.My eyes stung with tears, and I gently tilted my head sideways to look at the Wolf I had learned to love.
