Xavier was happy that she loved his siblings she had bonded with them so well but then again he felt a type of way because the way she bonded with his siblings it had taken at least two weeks for her to get comfortable with him.“You are mad because she communicated with your siblings better than you?” Mathias asked as he could smell that his owner was now behaving like a child.“For Christ sake she still is about to trust me yet she gives all the likings to my siblings?” he asked as he had now switched to his wolf self and was running inside of the forest.“You behave so childish sometimes and it feels like I am the Alpha, would you man up and go be happy that your woman is now becoming better to have accepted your family with no issues?” Mathias asked now somewhat angry at Xavier.He had his moments but most times he allowed his childish moods come to life.He lets out a loud howl as he whipped between the trees, he ran for a while trying to think and bring himself back to the state
He slowly left his siblings in the midst of the forest as they were there to meet up with some friends and just do their night games as they always used to do.He made it back to the house a few minutes later as he for sure made his legs run even faster than he could and Mathias just huffed in a little annoyance because he knew when Xavier was in this kind of mood it was difficult having to calm unless he wanted to calm down.He got in took some clothes and put them on a she made his way upstairs to the room hoping he was not making any noise if she was asleep.But when he got the there was Nathalia wide awake as she was waiting for him, he had not told her what was wrong with him as he had ran off and indeed even though she had not said she felt bad she was disturbed.“It is almost three in the morning, where were you?” she asked raising her head up so she could meet his eyes as she signed those words to him carefully and also hoping she didn’t ask a question that was going to make h
He nodded happily as he heard her say those words, she wanted to be marked by him, did this mean they had finally crossed the stage of her being scared of him that he bas gotten to the point of wanting him to mark her.He stood still, because she could have started she wanted him to mark her but she had not given him the go ahead.Permission was important when it came to her, he didn't want a case where he would have to start everything back afresh.She has already trusted him to mark her and that was important at this moment."I have a question Xavier" she signed slowly as she looked at him hoping she was not going to spoil the mood because she was loving the mood already as he was somewhat becoming comfortable to her."Yeah Nathalia go on" "Can you smell the scent from the spot you wish to mark?" "Yes I can and from every indication, it is rioe and ready for marking, why ask?" Xavier asked a little confused and scared too."Oh okay, good, it's just that when Derrick had held me ca
She stirred as she woke up from a good night’s sleep. She had slept so peacefully in the arms of the man she had seemingly began to love so much immediately after the fact that they had been marked to each other.Rolling around she was face to face with the man she loved so much.Xavier Chadson Hills.She smiled gently as she rubbed his arm, which caused him to stir. She was an early riser as per the fact that she had not been able to sleep while she had been in the heat of Derrick hence, she had awoken him even if he didn’t want to wake but he was happy looking at her because just as he had wanted it, she was his.He curled her in his arms and she felt the warmth she had for years always wished to have and somehow this romance made her giggly as she tried escape.Eventually she broke free from his hold and shakily she walked to the bathroom trying her best to find stamina in her movement.She came out a few minutes later to find Xavier seated on the bed a little bit worried. He looke
Welp! Looking at the mark at the spot he had placed she knew everyone was going to know that he had marked her and she was his.Sighing she undressed before she got into the bathtub, she washed her hair and slowly she began to clean herself, this was the furtherance she could go to and she was happy she had gotten to thus spot.She had never known she could be this clean since she was taken to that rogue pack.Looking at the bruises on her body her mind moved back to those times that she had go through the beatings and the hell she had gone through even when she was being injected the wolfs bane that had made her almost to the spot of never being hurt.They had almost disappeared and that was a happy feeling she felt, she just saw the black lines that where now lining the parts of her body and she for sure knew that she had made the right decision that night to run away.Maybe if she still was at their pack she would have been death by now, because she knew at a time Derrick was getti
Joy grinned as she scarfed the meal down and Nathalia’s jaw dropped as she somehow knew that what she had cooked was a meal she knew that he was going to compliment it even if it wasn’t so good but she knew that she was going have to explain to her sister in law what she had made but seeing that she had loved it was so complimentary to her life and she for sure knew that now she could continue her cooking spree when at home.Joy finished the food in a few minutes and when she looked up at her she ended up bursting into laughter as she saw that her expression was a mix of amazement and also a mix of what seemed to be shock that she had ate of the food with so much happiness.“That right there Nathalia was delicious and somehow I feel so envious of my brother right now because he seems to be living the life that I want” she signed before she arose from the seat she had been on enjoying the food she had been served.She went downstairs and returned after she had washed the bowl of food t
She ran into the room where Xavier had been said to be in. She had finally awoken from the faint and dizziness she had felt when she had just come there and looking closely now she saw what she wouldn’t have wanted to see on anyone she loves body.Xavier was covered in blood and he had a wolf bite on his lap and looking upwards to his chest there were approximately if counted correctly three bullets holes all trying to target his heart.Terrifyingly Joy tried to pull her out as she watched Jacqueline try to revive him out of his convulsive state.The smell of crimson filling the air and because bullets where silver like she could smell the stench of burning flesh her heart hurting as her mates pains met with her as she screamed. Previous pain recurring and reminding her slowly, this was what she used to go through and maybe she just had to witness it yet again. Her chest heaving the pains he was feeling and Xavier tried his best not to share it with her, but the more he tried not to
As she walked through the pack she found herself before his he was in deep conversation with Ax and Jordan discussing something about having to find whoever it was that had planned the attack on him.She didn’t look happy and Ax and Jordan all knew where this was going to having found their own mates too and even before Xavier they knew when women where mad and they knew they had to go extra lengths to make them happy.Probably something Xavier was yet to learn as he always took everything on the serious note he sure was going to learn now that having to deal with his mate held a lot of tolerance, attention and emotions he had hidden for reasons best know to him.He just left and now he was here giving orders forgetting he had a mate who was upper worried about him.Somehow he was lucky to have had a mate who was deaf and couldn’t really scream out loud because if she for sure knew how to scream he should have heard his name from the moment she entered through the small door dividing
Gasping she sat up super fast that she had a nose bleed and began to cough out some gold like stuff which somehow turned to blood when out of her mouth.Xavier instantly was by her side as his hands immediately found a space on her back as he began to massage her and then holding a glass of water out for her to take a drink.When she took a drink eventually she stopped coughing out the gold like stuff and now the blood was coming out but then stopped too.Groaning she slept on her back as she took her hands up and began to wipe her eyes and then she rolled her eyes to the side and saw Xavier seated there on a chair just looking at her having a worried expression plastered on his face.She looked back and forth and finally came to the conclusion she was at the pack hospital yet again and if she could give the room a name she would say it was her second home because she seemed to visit it quite often than not.She frowned as she looked at Xavier confused.“I can’t find anything wrong wi
A light breeze brushed through her body, waking her. She glanced up and saw her father in the middle of a lovely garden, the kind she had always promised him she would have when she was eighteen, a place where she could sit and reflect on her life.The grass was dotted with the greenest of bushes, and she adored the way all the other flower bushes were trimmed and shaved. Flowers were blooming, and they were all in vibrant colours.She slowly followed the butterflies that were floating past her side in all their beauty as she got up from where she had been sitting.Since it was a brand-new location, she had never been before; perhaps her father had done it.Was she dreaming?Touching her jaws in the hopes that she would not wake up from this dream, she forced herself to walk through the soft grass and headed for a stony path.Curiously, she started walking along the path, admiring the beautiful lilies and daffodils her father had undoubtedly provided for her because she had always enj
Nathalia was certain she could remember how letters sounded, and hearing Jacqueline encourage her after she spoke boosted her confidence even further.Opening her mouth, she attempted to say the letters and even form some words; she stuttered a little, but after a few attempts, she was successful, grinning when she noticed Jacqueline grinning back with a happy smile at what she had just said."Very good, Nathalia, you are doing absolutely great, and I promise you that if you continue in this manner, you will go a long way," she said, placing a letter card beside the pile of ones Nathalia had already read out.Nathalia nodded confidently; who knew she would one day be seated in front of another, smiling and receiving compliments for what she was doing? All of this was new to her, and she wished she could stick with it forever because she was still convinced Derrick was out there looking for her.Perhaps she thought that if she could wear the new hearing aid and use her words, she would
Jacqueline grinned as she approached Nathalia at the pack hospital reception and said, "Good morning, Nathie."She smiled and said, "Good morning, Jacqueline," or more accurately, she signed back.As she could swear she had just seen Nathalia's real smile, or a better version of her face, she said with pleasure, hoping her stay at the pack had been beneficial. "From the smile and look on your face you seem to be in a better mood.""I am doing fine, Jacky. How are you?" She asked again, her smile still visible as she turned to face the doctor."How is Xavier doing?" she enquired. "I am really great.""He is fine, I think, or at least mostly," she said."Oh! "Why guess?""Well, he is busy with some pack duties," she said with a smile."Since you are here, can we do your checkup?""That sounds good." I was thinking maybe I could try some new hearing aids and learn how to talk; not that these do not help, but I have pain in my ears," she said, pointing to the hearing aids she was given wh
“Okay” she responded as she looked at him deep into his eyes and somehow she saw that he was having now another eye flip but not the silver to bluish, almost like she was seeing a need in his eyes like he wanted to lay her down on the bed and then make her feel happy. She guessed that was what should have been done the day she had been marked.“Xavier?” she called out making him pull back abruptly trying to control himself.“I am sorry sometimes Mathias just has his ways of doing things and just right now you got to meet Mathias who had come out to have a kiss at you at his will” he explained.She looked at him nervously not really knowing what to say at this point as it showed that he not only like her but his wolf also had fallen in love with her and she could only say thanks to the Goddess for this.“Hello Mathias” she finally said as she bit her lip.Mathias lost his growl as he growled now a little harder which sent vibrations through her body and gave her a grin before Xavier’s
How could he still be looking for her? Why had he not thought she had been captured and killed as she had ran away?With the way she was malnourished and left with nothing but bones and a few broken ribs, why did he think it was perfect to come looking for her still?“We had another couple of rogues come to tell us that they didn’t think you were dead because somehow Derrick could feel your presence and I don’t know why he has such a feeling about you when he had not been able to penetrate or mark you” Xavier said as he continued to explain to her what had happened.Oh Goddess! Why could Derrick not leave her alone? Why did he think that he still had a ho9ld on her life?.“How did he get my scent past your territory, you have marked me and the rogue scent is gone, the blood and wounds all healed and I smell like vanilla and musk, that’s you and I mixed in one right?” she asked nervously looking at him and he could see the scare in her eyes and goddess he didn’t like seeing her like th
“You are in love with me?” she asked a she had in her life not expected for him to fall in love with bones.Yes she literally called herself bones as all she could see were the stripes of skeletal form when she viewed herself on the mirror all she saw was a woman who had and will never be fully formed with flesh even though now she could see that it was getting full from the drugs Jacqueline was giving to her.He can’t be in love with her right?“I am in love with you Nathalia Chadson Hills” he signed adding his name to her names making her even more shivering with what she could term anxiety.The love coming from this man and those who were by him was something she was super shocked of.She liked it, and at the same time she hated it because as it was one could lose them all just like the same way she had loved her parents and her sister and finally ended up not having them for the past fifteen years of her life.Maybe she shouldn’t fall so much in love with him when he could leave h
