With a groan, the man collapsed onto the floor. The glasses' flank was piercing his face, causing his entire face to bleed.He started crying aloud when Adrian kicked him in the manhood."A new member of my pack? Then I should discipline you."He gave him another kick. "Don't touch the woman who doesn't want to be touched by you."When the man fainted in pain, Adrian backed away. He turned around and saw Natalia staring at the man.Adrian walked up to her and grabbed her hand.She yanked her hand back and gazed at him."What brought you here? Go away."Adrian frowned at her when he realized how drunk she was. She was not in her right mind.He grabbed her wrist again and pulled her up."If I had not come, he—"She shoved his chest. She pointed at her finger at him and said,"I don't want a weak man like you. I would have killed that man anyway."Adrian felt pain in his arm when she pushed her. But he shrugged his shoulders and replied,"Yes, I did witness your powerful killing of the m
Inside the car,Natalia moved her head against the back seat. The scent emanating from the jacket that surrounded her body made her feel warm.Her eyes were closed and her lips were parted."I won't forgive you, Adrian," she kept mumbling.The man beside her focused his gaze on her. He was observing her every move.She sobbed while saying, "I hate you."He tightened his fists while looking at her. She unconsciously shifted her head to his chest.His hand lifted to move the hair strands away from her face. His eyes darkened when he saw blood on her cheek.He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer. He wiped the blood from her cheek and saw there was a cut on her cheek. He realized that when the man smashed the bottle on his arm, she got hurt that time.With his wounded hand, he rubbed her cheek with her thumb and murmured,"I'm sorry, baby. I never intended to hurt you."He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek. As if she could feel his touch and realized it was him, she tri
When Natalia heard Adrian, her eyes widened. Because her thoughts slowly turned to the reflection of what had happened in the club. She remembered how he came to the room and got these wounds.She gulped and cast a glance at him. She slowly rose from the bed and walked toward the couch.She sat on the couch, a little away from him. As she thought to pick up the box, she said,"I am only helping because you are my children's father. Otherwise, even if you die, I don't–"He grabbed her hand and pulled her toward him. Her body pressed against his bare chest, causing her to gasp."I don't what? You don't care? You won't care if I die?"She gritted her teeth and glared at him."You are right. You..."Her eyes turned blurry. "You are a cheap liar. I was not enough for you. You always need another woman in your life."His eyes darkened as he let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her waist, causing her nose to brush against his.He looked into her eyes and muttered angrily,"In my lif
Natalia froze when his lips touched her chin. She felt her wolf reacting to her. Her wolf yearned for him to touch her again.His hands slowly moved up and down her waist, encircling it tightly.She closed her eyes, sensing his touches, unable to resist. His lips trailed over her neck, brushing on her skin.She could not react to his words, as she could not even hear him. His touch and kisses were enough to distract her from anything happening around the world."Why did you go to the club?" he whispered, brushing his nose against her neck.Hearing his deep voice, Natalia's eyes flung open. She grabbed his shoulder and shoved him away.Adrian moved back to lean his back against the couch. He looked at her but did not remove his hands from her waist."I hate you, Adrian. You are trying to get closer to me in order to distract me. What do you think? I will forgive you?"He looked into her eyes without giving her any answer. His gaze was deep and keen, which made her feel nervous inside.
Adrian stared at her cold eyes. Their anger was visible to him. He caressed his fingers on the back of her neck and replied with an assured tone,"I will prove it to you very soon."Natalia felt a burden move through her heart. She closed her eyes for a moment. She felt dizzy in her head. She wanted to believe Adrian. Even though she had decided not to give him another chance.However, if he stated so confidently that he was not the father, it could be true. She could only hope that.But what if he was influenced by something and made the mistake? How might things turn out for them? He said he was unconscious. But how did he get hurt and lose consciousness?Many questions popped into her head, and she wanted to hear the answers from him.She remembered how she had asked him questions, and he had ignored them. He had said that he did not want to talk about it.She took a deep breath and then opened her eyes.But as soon as she opened her eyes, she gasped. Because Adrian moved his hand
Natalia was shocked after seeing the wound in Adrian's forehead. She thought it was a wound that she could heal.But after seeing the wound, she doubted she could heal it."How did you get this scar?" she mumbled, staring at his forehead.He had a wound on his forehead that looked like a burning scar.As she reached out to touch the wound, her hand trembled.Natalia shifted her gaze at him and furrowed her brows. "How did you get this wound? Why are you not replying to me?" she asked again.She remembered the night when the pack was attacked by the rogues. That night, one of their villages caught fire. Natalia assumed he got the wound from the fire.As her fingers were about to touch his wound, Adrian immediately grabbed her wrist to stop her."Don't touch it," he said."Why?" she asked.He shook his head and let go of her hand. "It's not a wound that you can heal. So don't waste your time on it."Natalia was confused. Her eyes were once again drawn to the mark. She felt her heart sha
Natalia's hands moved to his shoulders. Adrian thought she would push him away. But Natalia did not push him. Instead, she rubbed his shoulders and moved her fingers to his soft locks.When he felt her fingers on his hair, his grip tightened around her.Natalia was silent, which gave him peace.He was holding her in silence, which was exactly what he needed at that moment.After a while, he unwrapped his hands and raised his head to look at her. When his head moved, it brushed against her breasts.She looked into his eyes without saying anything.Adrian ran his hands on her back and got to his feet.He motioned her to the closet and said,"Go and change your dress. You can't sleep in this dress."She assumed it was a signal for her to join him in bed. Without anything in her mind, she nodded her head and got down from the couch.She went to the closet and looked through her dresses. She grabbed a nightgown and went to the bathroom to change.Adrian sat back on the couch, staring at th
Natalia's sleep broke when she heard the sound of a door closing.She opened her eyes but immediately shut them. She felt her head aching like hell. She bit her bottom lip and lifted her hands to rub her eyes.Her eyes slowly opened again, and she gazed at the ceiling.It took her a few seconds to remember what had happened last night.She recalled how Adrian was hugging her tightly while sleeping. When he was asleep, his face appeared so innocent. She had allowed him to embrace her throughout the night.She looked at her fingers and remembered running them through his soft hair.His relaxed face came to her mind. It was as if he had not slept in a long time.Pressing her elbows against the mattress, Natalia sat up on the bed. She moved back to reach the headrest and leaned against it.All the blinds were open, so the sunlight was coming into the room easily. She rubbed her forehead, resting her head against the headrest."This ridiculous headache!" she mumbled.She looked around the
