Chapter 15
Chapter 15
Lauren gets close and
narrows her eyes. “It…it wasn’t Colt, was it?”
I can’t help my eyes widen.
“Hehehe…no, no…”
She gasps knowing I am lying through my teeth.
“Spill it! Now!”
“Nope! I have stuff to dust!” I
run away.
“Yeah, the Alphas mouth apparently!” she shouts.
I gasp and turn around.
“SHUT UP STUID!” I
whisper in a growl.
“You are going to tell me everything!” She shouts.
Nope.
I turn back around and run
back into the house but I
have no intention to go dusting anything again. Instead, I go hide in one of
the closets for another half
an hour but the whole time
all I can think is about Colt. The things that he says to me, the way he treats me now, the way his l*ps taste,
and the way he touches me.
This goes on all day until I finally go home where…my thoughts are also still
consumed by him that night and I can barely sleep.
I wake up very early feeling
more tired than usual. The
sun has barely come up. I get ready as I always do but Lauren and James seem to
be much more chatier than
usual. I hear them in the
living room and it annoys
1. me.
When I come out, I almost fl*p over when I see Colt
sitting on the sofa, having
coffee while they all talk.
“What the hell?”
“Good morning, Angel,” Colt
says with a smile.
He did not just say that in front of Lauren and James!
My face heats up and I am
sure it turns all shades of red.
Lauren and James look at
each other with confusion.
But soon a stupid smile plants itself on Lauren’s face while James still looks just
confused. I am sure Lauren
has not told him anything.
Lauren doesn’t tell him
about my private stuff and
that is why I trust her so
much.
I turn around and walk right back to my room.
“Cass. Come on. Don’t be a
child. We all need to talk.”
Lauren says.
“We do?” I shout from my
room.
“Yes. It’s important.”
With a sigh, I walk back to
the living room.
“Come, sit.”
“No.”
She grunts.
“Okay, fine. So…” She looks at
James and then looks at me.
“Well…”
“Lauren, spit it out,” I say,
annoyed.
“We are pregnant!” James
blurts out.
“…What?”
“James!” Lauren hits his arm.
He has a huge smile unable
to contain himself.
“You are!?”
She smiles and nods.
Wait! That’s why she gave
me the dress! She said it
didn’t fit her anymore.
I smile and quickly hug them.
I am so glad! They have been trying for so long!
“How far along?” I ask.
“I am four months now.‘
I gasp.
“And you didn’t tell me!?‘
“We wanted to make sure
that everything would be okay.” She says and then
looks at James as if she
figured something out.
“Maybe this is why I’ve been so horny.”
I gasp. “Shut up! You can’t say stuff like that in front of guests! Or even me!” I look at Colt who almost laughs but then goes back to his straight
face.
After the excitement is gone, I look at Colt again. “But why are you here?”
He looks at Lauren.
James is the one who talks. “Well, we came to him and
the Alpha about building an
extra room here. I have been
saving up and finally have enough. But Alpha Colt here came up with another idea.”
“What idea?” I look at him.
“Well..” Colt starts to speak. “A baby can be expensive. So
I told them that there is no
need for that, you are moving to the pack house so that they don’t have to spend money on another room and instead use it for the baby. It
is done. I have your room ready.” He says so
nonchalantly.
My eyes start squinting but
this time there is a twitch in
my right eye.
“And what in the world ever
made you think that I would
ever want to stay in the pack
house?!”
“Doesn’t matter. Fact is, this
house is too small for all of
you.” He says.
“Cass, you don’t have to. We are not in any way throwing you out. Our plan was to expand the house. We never thought about moving you out.” Lauren says.
Colt shakes his head. “It was
all my idea but you know it makes sense. Why spend so much money on a room when you can use that
money for other things that you really will need
especially with a baby on the
way.” He looks away as he takes a sip of his coffee and
then mutters. “Besides, I was
going to move you eventually anyway.”
squint my eyes and I swear that this is going to be the default setting on which I
always look at him. “You
what?”
“Mh.” He takes another sip of
his coffee without
responding as if he didn’t hear me. “This is good
coffee.”
I know it does make sense but I hate it. I don’t really
want to live in the pack
house. It’s going to be a
living hell for me.
“Cass, stay. We want you
here.” Lauren says and James
nods.
I sigh. I know they don’t
really have a lot of money.
“It’s okay. I’ll try it.”
“Are you sure?!” She asks,
surprised.
“Yeah, besides, I have some
time before the baby comes, right?”
As I say this, I see Colt putting the coffee mug on
the table, then getting up he says “Nope.”
Suddenly, he picks me up and puts me over his
shoulder.
“Are you crazy?!” I shout.
“Oh my!” Lauren gets up.
He starts walking towards the
door as he carries me but
before going out, he turns
back to Lauren.
“And congratulations. I see
how Cass turned out with
you basically raising her, you are going to be great parents.” He says.
“Uhm…thank you, Alpha.”
She says.
I hold on to him. He is so
much taller than me so I am afraid that I am going to fall.
“Kiss ass! What are you doing?!” I shout.
“Taking you home.” He says.
“NO, you are not! Are you
crazy?! Someone is going to
see us. Ezra is going to see
us!”
“No, he won’t. It’s too early and none of my family except for my father wakes up this early.”
“Then he will see us!”
“He doesn’t care.”
“You planned all this you
asshole.”
“Mh…that mouth of yours-”
“It’s going to get me in trouble? I know, I know.” I
say with a mocking voice and rolling my eyes though
he can’t see me. I have heard
this same thing from Lauren many times before.
“No. I love that mouth of
yours.” He corrects me.
He really shut me up there. He is also right about no one seeing us. There is barely anyone around. I see a few
people in the distance
starting their day but no one
notices us. He goes into the
pack house through the
front door instead of the
back kitchen door. There is
not a soul in sight. The
house is still a bit dark as he
goes up the stairs.
“Do you really have to carry
me like this?”
“Will you not run away?”
“Yes, yes I would.”
He laughs. “You are too
honest.”
“And you know that that is
what I would do. So no point hiding it.”
He reaches the top of the
stairs and walks down a hall.
“Why are you doing this
anyway? I really don’t get
you, Colt.”
“I already told you, you are going to be my Luna.”
“That joke is getting stale.”
“Not joking.”
I sigh as he stops in front of a
door.
“Home sweet home. This is
your new room.” He opens
the door and once inside, he
swings the door close with his leg and then finally places me on the ground.
The first thing I want to do is
to give him a piece of my
mind but I am stunned by
the room.
“This…is huge…”
“You like it?”
“Uhm…yeah but…it’s a bit too
much.”
“Nah, it’s perfect.”
It is a traditional light decor style. It feels cozy but clean.
“The bathroom is right
there.” He points to a door
on the left and then he
points to another door on
the right that is closer to me.
“That is the closet.”
I open the door and turn on the light. I see a big fancy walking closet but it is half
empty. The other half has
clothes already.
“Uhm…whose are these?” I
ask as I pull one of the
clothes out. It is a man’s suit.
“Mine.” He says.
My eyes widen and my head slowly turns to him. “This…is
your room?!”
“Yep, and yours too.
I stare at him for a few
seconds still as a statue.
“…Nope. Not doing it.”
I walk out of the closet but
he grabs my hand and pulls me in a hug, chuckling.
“You can’t make me stay here, Colt.”
“I am not. All that talk was
bullshit. You don’t have to
move in now. You can leave
but, just stay for a little while.”
He picks me up and within
seconds lies me on the bed.
“Colt-”
“Just stay with me. It’s still
early. We can nap for a little
while.”
He lies next to me with his
arm around me and his face
on the pillow facing me.
“What are you doing? You
say these confusing things and act in confusing ways. Why do all this?” I ask him.
“Cass, I already told you. I
want you. I am not lying. I am not playing games. I want you to be my
Luna…my mate.”
“You…can’t be serious…”
He lifts his head up and
looks me straight in the eyes.
“I am.”
“But…but…why?”
He sighs. “I am tired of repeating myself, Cass. So listen up. For the last time, you are different. I want someone good in my life.
Someone genuine. You are perfect.”
“Perfect? Okay, now I know you are lying or just playing
games.
He stops, closes his eyes, and
looks to the side with a
pained expression. He then looks at me again. “I… I am
so sorry, Cass. I am so sorry
that we did this to you. That
we made you think this way.
That we made you think that you are not good enough.”
I don’t know what to say.
He moves my hair from my
face. “I couldn’t see it before
all those years ago but I do now. I see you.” He lifts my chin up to make me look straight at him. “I. See. You, Cass. And you are perfect. Don’t ever let anyone make you feel any less.”
Unbeknown to me, my eyes
water. I feel this pain lift
from me with the realization
that he is right. The way I
think about myself is
because of all these other
people. I put myself down. I disrespect myself every time I speak negatively of myself. They put this way of thinking in my own head and I let it happen.
My poor soul. I have torn it
down. But here this man is
making me see this. Helping
me see this.
I feel him wiping a tear from
my face. I look into his eyes with all manner of feelings swelling up inside of me.
I feel my l*ps get dry, my heart beats fast in my chest and that is when I pull his
shirt and k*ss him. Without
hesitation, he k*sses me back but I am surprised by my own impulse. I feel desperate
and I don’t want the k*ss to
end. Still pulling his shirt, I
hold on to him and continue
k*ssing him with This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
desperation.
He suddenly smiles while his
l*ps are still on mine.
“You like me too.” he says
smiling.
I feel my cheeks burn and I pull away just a bit.
I can feel my face burning
and I don’t know where to
look, certainly not into his eyes or I will combust.
“Goddess you are beautiful.” He whispers.
I want to argue that but he stares at me with too much intensity so I don’t.
“Perfect skin…” He caresses my cheeks. “Luscious l*ps…” His finger softly traces my
l*ps. “Beautiful dark eyes.”
He looks down at my b*dy
and gives a low lustful sigh. “I want you.” He whispers.
Right now, I want him too especially when he acts like this. I love seeing him in this lustful way. But I am not giving in that easily. I still don’t completely trust him.
“Well, you can’t have me,” I
say.
He looks up into my eyes almost with a squint and then his eyes land on my l*ps
again. “Can I have your l*ps
at least?”
Before I can even respond,
he is already k*ssing me.
