Chapter 13 - Doriane
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Doriane watched from her chair as Levi cleared all the plates from the table. It looked like she barely touched the eggs and bacon, but in reality she felt full.
Levi had urged her to eat more, but she was so alienated from eating that it felt like more of a chore. The teas and flavored water Oliver had her drinking instead of real food had her stomach being a stranger to such delicious food.
She was honestly still full of Laurence's pot pie last night.
"I'm sorry, but I have to do some work today in my office. Is there something you like to do?"
Doriane was still adjusting to the sight of Levi washing the dishes and placing them in the dishwasher that she almost missed what he said.
"That's fine," she responded, her soft voice barely above the sound of the running water. "I'll find something."<

Least of all the most intimidating man she has ever seen in her entire life."I need to gas up. Are you alright if we pause and stretch for a minute? We don't have too much further to go."Doriane was shocked at her words.Were they still not out of his territory? They had been driving forever!Hayley pulled into a gas station and Doriane jumped out, stretching her legs out while Hayley went to work filling the car up."Are we still not out of Levi's territory?"Hayley pulled the gas cap from her car and pressed the gas p

“We need to complete the surgery on your ankle soon,” Dr. Ackerman stated while setting his clipboard on the counter in the small exam room.

“You remembered your swimsuit, right?” Levi asked as he turned on the small side-street leading to the cabin. Doriane nodded eagerly. “Yes.” “Good. We don’t have much time before dinner, but I can show you the lake and the canoe if you want.”
Worth Fighting For Chapter 20 - Doriane
Doriane tugged at the shorts resting just above mid-thigh and tried to stretch them further down to cover more of her scarred skin. The swimsuit covered her stomach and her shorts covered more of her legs than the clothing she had been forced to wear in the past, but she still felt like she had much too little clothes on. She would hate the revealing clothing she was forced to wear at Oliver’s. When she lived with her parents, they didn’t give her anything nice, but she was at least allowed to wear clothes that covered her. With the revealing clothes, her scars were painfully obvious. She hated looking at the puckered skin that ruined the body. She felt incredibly exposed and vulnerable with the marks on display. Levi’s bright smile appeared before her. His bare feet carried him on the sand as he made his way over to Doriane’s chair. He approached her, his eyes sticking to hers, and he stretched his hand out. She felt her pulse quicken, this time in anticipation. She had noticed t

Levi tightened his arms around Doriane as if she would disappear. He wanted this moment to last forever. He wanted to always cherish the feel of her against him, unafraid and willing. He wanted to brand the way her lips felt against his in his mind forever. His lips fell against hers once more, unable to withstand the temptation. They were soft and unsure as if testing him once again. Levi knew he got carried away last time and held himself back to keep their kiss gentle and chaste. Doriane responded to him and pressed against him again as if wanting more. The familiar incorrigible wildness rose in him again, his wolf pushing to take over their moment. He had to stop now before he couldn’t. Reluctantly, Levi released her lips and took a small step back. He held her motionless between his arms and took some deep breaths, reeling back in his beast who wanted to go much farther than she was ready for. “Levi?” Doriane’s voice was uneasy and confused. Goodness, she must be thinking h

Levi saw his cabin in the distance again and shifted back, retracting from his wolf body. His limbs felt thoroughly exhausted and his shaking legs carried him to the entrance of his house. It felt good to run his animal raw. Although fear and uncertainty still coursed through his veins, he felt a little more in control with his wolf so exhausted.
