Book 1 Chapter 15
Chapter 15
I‘m speechless, I just keep staring, unable to process what these tingles mean.
I know what it means, I‘ve been taught about what it means, I just never expected it to actually
happen.
‘What...what‘s that?‘ I ask stupidly, clearing my throat and gesturing to our hands.
I want to hear it from him, I need to hear it from him.
‘Fuck it,‘ he growls, he grabs the back of my head with his wounded arm, but clean hand, tangling his
fingers in my hair. I barely have to react as he leans down and captures my lips in a sudden kiss. My
hands instinctively reach up to support myself against his solid pecs, I splay my hands, enjoying the
feel of his hard chest. My eyes are still open, I‘m motionless against his lips, completely blindsided by
his actions. It takes me a moment, but I manage to gather some kind of thought process and soften in
his arms. I let my eyes fall closed and I kiss him back.
There is nothing else on my mind but him, I slide my hands up, around his neck, pulling myself closer
to him. His hand loosens in my hair to run down my back to my bum, he gives it a rough squeeze and
press es me tightly to his muscular build.
I think I‘ve died and gone to Heaven.
Myra‘s POV.
Eventually, his grip eases up and we pull away from each other. I open my mouth and attempt to form
words, but nothing comes out. He gazes at me, his ice–blue eyes look troubled, and then he sighs,
running his hand through his inky black hair.
I‘m sorry I didn‘t tell you,‘ he states, his voice is gravelly and apologetic. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
‘Tell me what?‘ I ask, although I have a pretty good idea what he means, this is not something I want to
be mistaken about. I‘ve embarrassed myself enough in my life and this could turn out to be very
embarrass ing if I get it wrong,
‘That you are my mate,‘ he says the words so simply, he has no idea of the emotional response my
body has to them. They are words I never thought I would hear in my life. I inhale sharply, wondering
whether I should pinch myself to test if this is even real. I have been dreaming of this day since I was a
lit tle girl, and to have it actually happen, is insanely surreal.
I snap out of my reverie when he sways again, I pick up the keys from the floor, where we must have
dropped them when he grabbed me.
‘We‘ll talk about this in the car, we need to get you to a Doctor,‘ I tell him, there is no room for argument
in my voice and he wisely stays silent as I help him into the car and reverse out of the allotment.
“How long have you known?‘ I break the silence we have been sitting in for the last fifteen minutes, I
force myself to keep my focus on the road instead of sneaking glances at the gorgeous male next to
me.
‘Since I first met you, he admits, and I can hear the guilt lacing his tone.
“And you kept that to yourself because...’ | trail off, aware that my tone is sarcastic but not caring in the
slightest.
I‘m pissed off that he has kept such a life–changing secret from me.
“Because I didn‘t want to hurt you,‘ he replies ambiguously and I frown, he must be able to guess that
I‘m going to ask this next question.
“How would you hurt me?‘
‘We are very different people, if you knew some of the things I‘ve done, or the job that I do, you‘d be
hor rified. I was trying to protect you from myself, I‘m no good for you, he explains, and I feel even more
con fused than before.
“Why? What do you do that‘s so bad?‘ I ask him, curiosity is burning inside of me and spreading like a
wildfire.
“I‘ll tell you about it some other time, I don‘t want to rush into anything, he replies, and I decide to let it
go, for now.
‘Okay, so what happens now?‘.l question, but his reaction is different this time, he looks at me and
smiles. I have never seen him smile, not properly like this anyways. He looks so attractive it actually
blows me away and I have to struggle to retrieve my thoughts in order to drive safely.
“Now that you know, I no longer have to keep avoiding you or being rude.‘
“Well it‘s nice to know your lack of manners was to keep me at a distance rather than a real personality
trait,‘ I tease, and he rewards me with another one of those smiles, I think I‘m going to be addicted to
them already.
We talk for a little longer, and soon we have returned home. I send Jayce straight over to the Surgery
be checked out whilst I go and find Alpha Damien to give h of us head over to the Surgery.
‘Are you going to be okay?‘I ask, mostly to Jayce, but my eyes are on the nurse as well.
‘Yeah, should be all healed in a few days, he replies, and I nod, feeling reassured. I grab my handbag
and stand up to go, wanting to give him and Damien some time together.
“Right, I‘ll see you tomorrow,‘ I tell him, pausing awkwardly.
It‘s too soon to kiss him goodbye right? Maybe just a hug? Or no hug?
You‘ve been standing here for ages just leave!
‘Come here, he orders, reaching out with his good arm, now clean of any blood. I sigh with relief and
eagerly step into his arms. Leaning down, I wrap my arms around his neck, and he pulls me tightly
against him. I ignore the nurse huffing in annoyance and try to block out Damien‘s muffled laughter.
, ‘See you tomorrow, he whispers in my ear, his husky voice does all sorts of things to my body, and I
hurriedly leave before I do something stupid, like knock out the nurse and pounce on him.
