Sixty two

CHAPTER 62

GLENN

We were right there in her car and I couldn't believe she actually waited twenty minutes. I rang Ann before I made my way to her telling her about the whole situation just as I was leaving the apartment.

The last thing I wanted was to share a bus with someone I so much hated, but at that moment it seemed like she left me with no choice.

I had my heart right there in my mouth all this while, all this moment felt restless —right from the moment she got into the car till the car was Ignited.

Martha remained silent as we drove, the sunlight flickering and fading into the car as we drove past the civilization.

There was still that unreadable expression in her face each time I tried to look and guess what it was all about, she withardly said a word to me.

During his silence, I let my mind race through all that she possibly wanted to say. I knew the bottom line would be the money, but I still wanted to know what she would say.

Each turn she made, each sound if her fabric left feeling more and more drawn to where she was, I could feel every bit of my nerves racing, every adrenaline I had in me ran through the whole length of my nerves as I could feel it floating through the bloodstream right there to my heart.

When that feeling faded, it left an after effect of neither hot nor cold sensation under my skin.

All through that while she said absolutely nothing, she sat still not uttering a word, she was busy on her phone all through the while leaving me almost screaming out of my head.

I was starting to think this was a trap after all but since my wolf didn't give any clue about that I kept still.

Still beneath the whole sick feeling the car had something I couldn’t find unpleasant,

I could hate the person I was sharing my space with, but there was no way I could possibly hate the car.

My pulse drifted between my chest, when she finally spoke. I could hear my heart beating. I hoped not too loudly as it tried to find control.

My head tilted to the side, catching my gaze. She held it for a moment before turning back to the road. “I picked this spot for a reason ."

I pulled and leaned to look around, it was only then i could see that we were miles away, she could fucking do to me what she wanted and drop me over the bridge that was if I were mere human.

I thought of a better way to respond, a way that wouldn't give me away as being scared. What I came up with was, "what do you want?"

She didn’t glance at me, but a small smile appeared on her lips.

“Speak, I am running late." The world's escaped my lips on a breath, quiet and suggestive tone.

"Leave town, I want you to leave."

I raised a brow. “Why? Are you scared that he might come back to me?”

She flicked a gaze to me. Darkness glinted behind her eyes as it was obvious she didn't enjoy what I said, not the very bit.

“Scared?" She scoffed.." I can harm you right here but I am giving you different choices. "

My heart drove like it was going at an insanely different speed, it looked as though my wolf didn't take the threat likely.

All this while I kept my face straight

not conveying an ounce of emotion as I could feel that rush of adrenaline as it surged through my veins.

"I promised to give you money the last time, trust me this time I am promising more."

I didn’t know why considering it didn’t help my case, as a matter of fact it made it more Intense. I was seeing how I made her uncomfortable and insecure and loved the feeling.

"So will you think about it?"

She gazed at me expecting a reply I didn't know how to give. If there was anything I was so certain of, I didn't want to get into a love triangle, but it looked like I was in one already.

However, I wasn’t ready to give up yet; the thought of having his attention had sparked a thrill inside of me and I didn't want it running out again.

"So what did you say?"

"Alright."

“Are you saying you’ve agreed to what I am saying? "

“That’s not what I said.” I denied

“So, what are you saying?”she asked, wanting to know.

“That I need to think about it. "

"I think I should know what you want before it’s too late?”

" I smirked hard. " Is that a threat?"

She laughs. " I don't play that game. "

"Well, I don't play any games at all. "

The glance she cast my way was nothing but heat. “It’s already too late. "

My pulse fluttered, but I forced a sigh. “Just take me back. "

The man looked back at her and shook her head. He turned the ignition back off, as the soft pops and crackles of the engine roared back to life.

Once again fresh air filtered into the car through the open window. Taking with it the high tension that had settled in the space between us.

I couldn’t stop a sliver of envy still finding its way to me. What a woman, here i was thinking, she had me all to herself but it turned out there was more—

The car accelerated so fast as a gasp escaped me, the breath that escaped me was labored, each second feeling like a pause before another.

I was sure the truth was as clear as day, she was scared of me… she was scared that he might love me more than he did to her, as if that wasn't enough she feared that she might never have him.

"Think about it again." She half whispered.

Ann was right there waiting in front of the mall and all this happened.

Looking back at Ann's face, I had just one expression—Amusement
