The next day I woke up, my eyes fought to adjust to the bright light glittering into the room. I laid still listening to the sound from the outside saturating through the walls into the house.I couldn't focus on the numerous sounds coming in at once. There were those from the sparring younglings, those from howling wolves, once coming from the kitchen, once that if I decide to heed to, might actually cause me deftness, due to how unchaste they were.I peeled my eyes open and slowly allowed them to take in our surroundings. Instinctively, my hand searched around the bed, until it found Lance. I smiled and turned to face him.He looked so worn out, the lines in the skin close to his eyes, looking very crease. I knew he was worried and knew why. It was all because of me.Naturally, I would tap him not so gently, or shake him furiously awake asking him to be an Alpha but right now looking at him, I couldn't find it in me to be that mean to him.These few days have been tasking for us and
When we entered the shop, it was just like I left it...I stood at the door my eyes taking in everything. Then at once, it hit me.A familiar scent. Lance was here. How? When? I knew his scent so well, that it lingered everywhere it went to, and I could easily pick it up. Impulsive my, I inhaled the air the more seeking if more of that awesome scent."What's the problem?" Sonia asked going to sit down."Nothing, I think Lance was here and also" I paused as another scent came in the mix "Grey" I finished recognizing his too. Though it was faint I still couldn't miss it."I think it was last night" she offered, her eyes going to my vase playing on the table. My feet moved in that direction picking up my cup and going to fill it with water. I poured in a larger quantity and lowered back the item.I traces my eyes through all the plants already out of the nursery, to make sure that they were blooming fine in case I didn't make it out of this ailment.Shaking my head to exterminate any foul
"You worry yourself too much babe," He said again, still cuddling me to him. I inhaled him my hand tightening around him. I was very delighted that he is here. At least nothing can get me. " Let's go inside yea?" he whispered. I nodded still holding him. I felt so afraid that anything could jump out like in the nightmare, and try to grab me. "Let's go back to the room so you will take your dinner since the dining would be filled with some people" I shook my head not yet ready to go up "I'm fine let's eat with them. At least let them know I'm still alive" He chuckled and in one sweep before I would protest, swept me off my feet to his arm. I fastened my hand around him very fast in a is not to fall, and buried my face in his chest. It felt so good. The rhythmic beating of his heart on my ears was like sweet music to me, calming me. "Here comes the bride" The discernable voice of Grey broke through the silence. I smiled and looked up from Lance's arm. "Grey" I called "I missed you
"I will have to go back to the coven" I makes up my mind instantly after the encounter and left for the room. When I entered the room, I heard a sound from the bathroom meaning Harley was probably using the restroom. "Lance?"I heard her call, the sound coming to an abrupt stop. "Yes, Harley" I replied and ambled further into the room "Do you need me there?" I razzed her. "In Your dreams" She mused "I just wanted to make sure you are the one" "So are you almost done?" I queried, trying to decide how to inform her about my trip. "Yea," she replied, and not long the door of the bathroom fell open and she appeared in her white towel securely wrapped around her petite self. "What's the problem? you look...troubled" "Elena was here" her expression fell, her fist by her side clenching. Maybe I shouldn't have told her about that. What was I thinking? I knew how much she was averse to her sister coming to visit. "What does she want?" I went to the armchair to flop down, running my han
"Lance,! I'm going to have to spew on you! I will kill you!" I coursed as he winked at me and blew off my hope, by dashing into the bathroom. My heart broke from that.I had thought he would want us to you know, mingle. He seemed all blown up, with his dick looking very strong, which meant he was horny. I am too why turn did he not___"Harley!" he yelled from the bathroom. "Can you let me bath in peace? gush!" Narcissist!"I heard that"he forged on."Like I care" I muttered and abruptly finalized the food that I had lost interest in a long time ago.I picked up the book from yesterday and flipped through the pages mindlessly. I hated what Lance did. Got me all hot and then left me dry. It's been a while we had sex and I feel part of that is beginning to affect my function.Lance finished bathing and came out with a towel wrapped freely around his waist. That was more like a seductive way of putting it. Why would he even bother tying it since part of his private area was open to the ey
"Jeez, must you say that?"I asked Sonia, the moment the door closed after Lance."Girl, you are bedridden""I'm not dead. You said it...bedridden, besides I'm fine, see?" I spread my arms, which flattened back to my side the next minute. I was beginning to feel the heat but I won't let her see that.I have to fulfill my duty to my mate even though I'm sick. I want to believe that Lance would never cheat on me but if there should be anything that would make him to, I didn't want sex to be one of them...even though this morning's own was as a result of my horny hormones."You are trying to conceal it but I see it that you are...feel ill. Look at your palette""Please...can I have my rest now... Don't worry you can go do whatever you want but bicker me to death thank you" I shooed her away and dragged the covers up.She ignored me and came to the closet, I followed her with my eyes to see what she was up to this time. She sort through the clothes until she produced a big cardigan which
Lance"Zara, be reasonable, you can't be this stone-hearted about this," I told her in despair almost about to beg her to give me anything even though hint on how I can break the damn curse."Lance I told you all I can. You wasted your time coming here cuz there is nothing I can do about it"She expressed coldly, her facial expression maintaining the stoic poise."My mate is seriously sick, does that mean anything to you?" I took the emotional blackmail channel. However, it seemed that was a wrong move judging from the angry glare she gave me."Get the fuck out of my coven, Lance," she points to the door beginning to seeth with anger at me "You have the guts to tell me that? How is it my fault that your mate is sick? You brought this upon yourself and if you ask me I will say she was indeed very foolish to want to take the nemesis of your misdeed on herself" She spat and dropped down on her thronelike chair, throwing off her face from me."Zara, what do you want me to do to make you co
" I will do everything I can to help you, Lance, I assure you that I hate those creatures and would do my best to help you crush them in any way I and my people can" he promised."I feel indebted to you, Vladimir" this was looking too good to be true. After I finished telling him how I thought he could help me. He didn't protest but simply agreed just like that without no condition and now I'm even more worried than I came.The vampires never do anything for anyone for free without any terms and he just wants to help me? But I didn't ask him. I want to believe that he was taking a turn for the better just the way I have over the years. But in case of tomorrow he requests something I can do, I will. All I need right now is aid against the witches.I took an abrupt swig of the drink in my hand and looked up, checking the ancient looking wall clock on the wall, to discover it was already very late, and I have to get to the nearest hotel to sleep tonight so that by morning, I would be ab
