River wanted the earth to crack up and swallow her whole. She was lying on Hunter’s chest, her legs nestled in his thighs and her ***on his nipple. She pushed herself up, feeling so embarrassed. Her hair fell around her, making a curtain around his face.
Something hard was poking on her belly and that made her blush deeper and push herself further up, but in the process. she pressed her belly more on his hardness. It was so hot that it fell like a brand against her belly River should have felt abashed, but for strange reasons, her juices flowed and she clenched her thighs.
1-1 am sorry,” she said hurriedly. “I don’t know how this happened” She wanted to apologize but it came more like remark. What was wrong with her these days?
Hunter’s eyes locked on her face. When he went to sleep on the bed, he found that she was tossing and turning and unable to sleep well. So he shifted towards her and curled his arm around her waist, and pulled her against his chest. That move was enough to calm her down to sleep. But slowly, slowly, River crawled up on him and sometime during the night, she was over him Hunter couldn’t sleep after that.
He cupped her face and in a deep husky voice, “I don’t mind it at all, River. He took his hand behind her neck and cupped it. He pulled her towards him and pressed his lips on hers. Licking at the seam of her lips, he sought entry in her ***. He was relieved to see that there was no resistance. He moaned inside her ***and then swept his tongue, tasting her, savoring her, loving her, worshiping her.
When he pulled away from her, she was breathless. She rested her forehead on his and closed her eyes. Her heart was beating like that of a wild horse. His touch, his nearness, his scent and his warmth were beginning to feel like a drug she was getting addicted to. And she didn’t know what she would do if he left her. She had to stop feeling attracted to him before it got too late.
River couldn’t go for her training that day because she had an extra online class. So when Hunter left for work, he walked out with a lingering feeling of delight that housed in his chest for a long time. He hadn’t felt this good in a long time and he couldn’t help wondering what it would be like to feel when he mated with her. She loved the coffee I made for her. She also loved the table I crafted for her. And his face beamed with a grin in the midst of a meeting.
Elijah’s cough brought him back to the meeting with his men. There was again an attack on the south of the Veil and this time there were demons also involved along with werewolves. This attack had Ella written all over. The good thing was that the demons attacked but didn’t stay for too long because they knew that the Lycans were going to attack them and destroy them in a minute. The demons attacked in a pack and then also they managed to just injure two, warrior Lycans. His thoughts moved back to her. To the kiss they shared in the morning I wonder what kind of layout she would prefer for her room and laboratory.” If she preferred to have more windows or a glass wall towards the garden, or a simple room with minimal furniture. ‘Maybe I should ask her.’ He couldn’t help feeling excited when hope ignited in his chest that if he continued to make good things for her, she was surely going to fall in love with him even if her wolf didn’t awaken. He was going to change his entire castle for her if she wanted to, change every decor, get more jewelry, if these things would make her fall in love with him.
He was also going to take her on a tour of his pack and if she wanted once to her pack. It would be a dangerous thing to do, but he would if she wanted to. He would take her to the human world from where she could pick up things for the castle so that she could decorate his home the way she liked.
Hunter wondered if he was being ***. But it was fine to be ***with his mate.
Over the next one week, Hunter noticed that River would blush sometimes when he would look at her. She had made him a beaded bracelet currently adorned his wrist. He would stare at it or caress it ever since he received this first gift from her in wonder that she had made something for him in return.
Hunter felt like he was on top of the world. He didn’t want to hide any truth from her. He wanted to protect her. He had brought her here as a breeder yet she never brought that up these days. Now that she had come to love and like where she lived, her scent of elderberry and roses was devoid of fear and anxiety. It was mixed with that of lavender and honey and he loved to be closer to her than he should, just to smell her deeply. It calmed him.
Her hair was a beautiful auburn that looked like pure flames in sunlight. She dazzled him every day and sometimes he caught her stealing glances at him which made his chest swell that she was getting attracted to him. Her blue sky-like eyes were so beautiful that the world faded around him when he stared into them.
His heart would flutter in his chest because she was now smiling more at him. Her laughter was the most melodious sound he had ever heard. He would find himself going to her in the garden of the west wing, a place where she was using to study every time, he had a break. He hoped that one day she would allow him to sit in front of her with his head in her lap while she ***.
When River would go back to her room, Hunter would follow her there. He would keep himself busy by starting the fireplace even if the servants were there to do it, or arrange his documents on the table amongst other things. All he did
was just to watch her as she moved around the bedroom or the castle. Her presence gave life to the castle he lived in, one he never thought he could ever feel. His castle was now like a… home.
“My notebooks are all over and this is a list of items that I need,” she said, handing him over a piece of paper. “I need two software, some tools, laser measuring tape, lots of colors and then some more!”
“I will get these to you by tomorrow morning!” he said and he intended to buy them all himself.
“I am afraid that some of it may be acquired only in the human world.”
“Then I will take you there in my helicopter!”
She looked at him with excitement. “Thank you. Can we go this weekend?”
“Yes!” he nodded. He scratched his eyebrow lightly and added, “Can I take you for a date this weekend?”
