"Sure."
He cleared his throat again. "I could order Uberfoods if you can't wait."
"Wait for?"
He smiled bashfully. Looking anywhere but me. "I was going to make us lunch."
I almost fought the urge to coo. Could he get any hotter?
How he was all confident alpha male before eventually flipping to this shy gentleman in seconds did things to me. I couldn't deal much longer. Could he stop being so goddamn perfect? I was going to lose my mind.
"You were going to do that?"
He nodded, his shy smile still in place. "I enjoy eating the things I make Ava."
I could see why. He had perfect cooking skills. I could tell from the way I'd practically done justice to the English breakfast he'd prepared me in the morning.
"I can wait Aiden."
He beamed. "Great! I was planning on preparing something delicious."
I grinned, feeling warmth spread through my whole body. "You did?"
"Yeah."

I swallowed. Not missing the innuendo in his words.God, it sounded quite tempting in my ears and overall.What would it take to completely let go and surrender to Aiden. Even if it was a one time thing? Sure it wouldn't hurt that much.But then senses kicked in. It was barely days since my unofficial split with Scott. That was a lesson learned the hard way and I'd be damned to take another one.I shook out the thoughts. Going back to watching Aiden who now worked quietly. Like he noticed my internal dilemma and was giving me space to sort my shit.Maybe in another life or another time. I would completely lose myself in someone like Aiden. Scott had given me a wake-up call. All promises and words could mean a lot when they were all vain words to the person saying them.And nothing hurt more than that. Knowing you were lied to, constantly and had fallen for a well crafted lie. Even the pieces of your broken heart were unable to be picke

Aiden was bleeding.That was the single thought that ran through my mind as the GPS announced that we were at the right location.The part was nearly tarred like something you could see in a countryside movie. Little identical houses and pretty picket fences. But I merely had the time to appreciate the view when all I could think of was Aiden, bleeding to death.I couldn't live it down if it happened. And I couldn't let it happen.Not after he'd saved my life just days ago.I realized my cellphone wasn't with me as I searched around.I cussed out. I was doomed."Aiden?" I called loudly, seeing his beautiful skin pale drastically before me. "We're here. What should I do?"I was a mess. Never been so helpless before."Asher." He muttered weakly. "He's coming."I was confused. I didn't know who Asher was or what he meant.All I knew was that he, Aiden was in danger. He'd gotten quite a number of bullet wounds

He too looked over six feet and more as he towered over the people he passed.For once, I felt myself feel a little relieved when I saw the casual look on his face."Layla?" He called when he got to where we stood, enveloping Layla in a tight hug that lasted for a few minutes."How is he?" Layla inquired and I noticed his hands were still around her and he had a soft and warm expression on his face."How are you?" Asher asked instead.Layla shrugged. "How I'm feeling isn't that important Ash. How's my brother.""The bullets have been taken out." He informed, while I let out a relieved breath. "There's only one silver bullet," he further informed, causing Layla's eyes to widen in horror."A silver bullet?!" She almost screamed.Causing my insides to react in alarm too. I hardly understood what was happening. But I knew what he just uttered meant that Aiden was probably in danger."Calm down love. It's been tak

I cleared my throat as we continued to walk the hallway, while she waited for my answer."He is great." I finally answered dumbly.Layla let out a chuckle as she came to take my arms into hers. "So we are keeping it PG are we?""Uh, no it's not like that." I was embarrassed to the bones.I'd taken my time thinking about Aiden and all the ways I thought of him, just to give her a three worded, vague answer."Aiden is so much more than great to you Ava." She nudged me teasingly. "I'm sure you felt it."I blushed beetroot red, clearing my throat."It's okay love." She assured. Certainly off teasing me for a while. "I'm not making you uncomfortable, am I?"I shook my head quickly. "No. Not at all."She smiled. "I'm glad. You see Ava, I like you, a lot. As a friend who feels like a sister in some way and whatever else you want to be."Whatever else I want to be?I couldn't help but feel her words had

I felt it before I could open my eyes. Someone was staring at me. I stilled in bed, by head nestled in the billowing pillows.My heart began beating wildly. With the series of nightmares I had last night and my constant inability to properly sleep, I felt I was yet in another nightmare. I still felt the eyes on me which urged me to find out who."Ava?" The familiar voice called and I stilled again.It can't be.He can't be the one calling my name in this very room.But then I sat up and was met by his face.Aiden was sitting by my bedstand, looking at me.Wide eyed and confused, a scream tore through my mouth before I could process things.Aiden was quick to come to the bed. "Are you okay Ava? What's wrong? Are you hurt?"I recoiled, moving away from him.How was it possible that Aiden was in the room before me. Looking like yesterday's incident never happened.Was I really dreaming?"A

I'd always wondered what it felt like to be left completely speechless and dumbfounded. The revelations I'd received had been the perfect spot-on experience. I hadn't only learnt that werewolves existed, but that I was also this werewolf's mate. Seriously, it was a crazy world we lived in. Who knew my life could go from boring and almost non-existent boring college life to one worth a fantasy movie. I'd never imagined I could be living this sort of life. A life where every little second or minute was unpredictable. I was currently standing beside Aiden's car, a red Royce Roll that stood among the various cars in the large garage, unable to make eye contact with him. The last fourty eight hours has been a speeding Mack truck of events to me. But surprisingly, I'd handled myself and managed to keep my cool. Bearing in mind one too many things. I was a normal young adult living a normal life who has hopefully, minimal drea

"Honestly," I continued. "If it were under different circumstances, I would be happy to be your mate. But I have duties this time. Duties to myself. I come first and I am going to try my best to inculcate that into my mind. And until that is done, I do not think that I will be emotionally available for anyone.""I respect your decision Ava." He said after a while.I offered him a small smile. "Thank you.""I don't know how long it is going to take for you to build yourself Ava. But, whenever you are ready, I hope you consider me and I want to let you know that I'll wait if you will have me."His sincere words warmed my heart.Really, Aiden was such a gentleman.Most times, he seemed so good to be true. And I had only known him for a few hours.Ma

I wasn't sure I did well in my biophysics test.And that would have bugged me into restlessness as soon as I submitted my paper. But that was the least troubling thought I was battling.All I could think of and found hard to process was that I was in danger and was partially on the run.I'd never had a reason to hide or even, feel endangered before. My constant troubles since I lost my parents was how to pass a test, an exam and how to juggle my part-time jobs in order to make time for Grandma and my studies.Now, my worries weren't in any way basic. Rather I was worried about some unknown wolf desperate to have my head on a spike.Although Aiden had asked me to move in with him till I was finally safe and I had agreed, I still found it all to be new. At first, it felt like it was merely a joke or even, a bad dream that I was bound to wake up from. But the look on Aiden's face had husked out such thought.It was merely a joke. I was in
