Seventy two

GLENN

I woke up with him right there in my arms, for a minute I thought perhaps it had all been a dream and I was just part of its plot.

With my eyes fluttering to life I saw clearer than this, it all started from the fact that his manly scent filled the room.

I could still smell him, the scent Cologne, the sounds of his soft breathing. All this turned a side of her alive.

He was right there still with his eyes closed, having the most peaceful sleep.

He turned but didn't wake, tossing around on the bed as I looked at him, all I saw was beauty lying in the soul of a man, he was more beautiful than anything I had ever seen.

His heart heaved slowly as he smiled and stirred in his sleep, as he did I let out a sigh of my own, the only difference was that mine was as a result of my frustrations.

Beautiful things can be deadly too…

The sudden realization of that sent a wave in me as shivers ran down my spine.

I might not be the brightest in the world when it came to quick thinking , but I made it up for this weakness with other traits.

Traits that he makes so vulnerable, the fact that he had cracked my walls down like ot worth nothing was something to be notable for.

For a minute it occurred to me that the entire issue was not settled yet, there was still someone in the picture —his lover.

I sighed to herself knowing fully that he would most definitely be going back to her after this.

Only if I could hold him tight in my hands —I felt a dark jealousy toward her that I hadn't felt before. I felt the need to settle this once and for all.

"What are you thinking about." His unexpected voice startled me.

Apparently, he had been sitting down there for the past moment studying the whole situation.

I felt my heart leap as I heard his voice, it paced heavily —

"Jeez, what did you do that for? He smiles sheepishly as he stretches.

The more I was here, the more I thought of that one chance to get him away from the situation he was in.

Now that I was mated, I felt that sudden need to protect him, and if I was going to do that m, that had to be me taking out my most possible threat—Martha.

She was different from me in every way, I could say that … still I was concerned about the fate he would have if he ended up with her.

He stood up and I stared at his back as he left, he got into the bathroom and soon I was hearing the sound of the faucet.

"What time are you leaving for work?" He asked

" In the next one hour. " I replied.

He made a noisy sound, as he ran his fingers through before disappearing back again into the bathroom.

I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask him, yet that will to share word's with him was gone .

My mind kept being tormented by a name —Martha.

Soon we were ready to leave, he walked behind me as though he was a knight in shining armor, he whistled to stop a cab as we both got in.

He sat in a way that suggested that he might be having second thoughts about the incident.

Cars sparkled as we drove through the street, it sparkled beneath the sunlight as I watched people milled up and down the

pavement as we drove.

The day heated up and i was grateful

in the world. In my ignorance, I believed I would be able to fix things.

The silence touched me anywhere, though he stood not so close, I wanted so badly to touch and feel him .

The light summer breeze blew in from the opened window, it played not just with my heart but many others as well.

I decided that I wouldn't ask him anything or speak about her as a matter of fact, I would let the whole matter slide at least for now.

Maybe there was a lot on his mind after all not to speak about yesterday, at least he wasn't running off.

At that moment I turned and could see that his attention found me. I could feel his gaze as it was burning my skin in a distinctive way, sparking off things in my mind.

I wondered if he paid attention to her the way doing to me attentive with all his

women, and then immediately hated myself .

"You are keeping a lot inside of you, don't you think it is the best time to expose all?"

" Well just thinking about last night. " I opened up finally.

" Why, all I remember is last night being the best in a while. " He muttered.

One part of me was hoping he would see it, I was hoping he saw why I had made that stunt.

"Trust me, I held last night dear to me." He said just as we were approaching the mall.

Listening to the words brought a kind of coolness, as a tenacious part of me wanted to know what he would do if I called Martha name.

His voice had all the Sweetness to it and it came with a smile from him,I had always been a bit too curious and the whole situation was leading to something else

As he was busy Highlighting all the things that I had gone wrong , all I felt was his large, intimidating presence on my back.

"Are you going back to her?" I asked, filled with jealousy. "

My mind in a way fought to make everything stable.

"Well." I shrugged.

He looked at me again and this time a smile came up his lips.

"Do you think I would take such a risk?" He asked.

While still talking, the front door of the mall opened and a woman walked hard. We both turned to the direction of the woman.

"Martha?"
