Chapter 146
Avery’s pov
Being in his arms feels like my safe haven, just the way the warmth from his touch spread on my stomach felt so good. I sighed, leaning into his touch. “Just our little family,” I repeated, loving the way it felt as it rolled off my tongue.
Just us.
He kissed my head, rubbing my stomach. ” I can’t believe I am going to be a dad,” he utters, voice full of awe.
I smile and place my hand on his. “I can’t believe I’m going to be a mom.
He kissed my temple. ” You’re going to be a great mom.’
I hope so. Especially with having a baby that isn’t fully human inside me. “Can you,” I said shakily. ” Can I know how I lost my memories?”
I could feel how my question made him stiffen hard but an hour later Xade explains everything to me, including everything about mates. By the end of this, I had come to the realization that all the signs had been in front of me all along.
The shift of his eyes, the way he growled, the aura around him. Everything was out in the open and I couldn’t help but feel like the world’s shittiest friend slash girlfriend for not realizing something was up.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
I’m sorry,” Xade said softly, breaking the silence.” I should have told you sooner, I should have told you everything. So many things could have been avoided.”
I look at him, his eyes swimming with sincerity and regret. My gaze softens and I reach up to cup his cheek. “How could you have ever thought I’d reject the real you? I don’t care if you’re a beast. I don’t care if you change into a wolf. I love you Xade. Every part of you. I love you.”
His eyes mist and he leans into my touch, his eyes fluttering close as if to savor my touch. you.”
I don’t deal
My heart hurts because he does deserve me. “You do,” I whispered and kiss his jaw, unsure if he’d want to kiss me since I had just stuffed my face with raw meat. But he surprises me when he pinches my chin lightly and brings my mouth to his to devour.
His kiss is hungry and consuming, as if he was trying to pour all of his emotions into the very brush of his lips. I melt into him and he pulls me onto his lap, making me straddle him.
All my worries seem to take a sweep behind my head when I am in his arms. It’s like I am consumed by him, everything Xade. And when we finally pulled apart I was convinced an hour has passed.
Our foreheads press together and we hold each other, breathing in each other’s scent. The room is quiet, but the good kind of quiet. ” Don’t ever make decisions again without consulting me,” I warned playfully and squint my eyes.
Xade nod. “Never again. I won’t make the same mistake twice.”
I ruffled his hair, causing the strands to stick up everywhere even more than they already did before. He playfully tries to bite my arm and I joked. “Down boy,”
He shoots me playful glares. Then he cups my cheek and tilts my head, his eyes dropping to my neck where his mark had healed. His eyes soften with love and adoration.” The mark looks so beautiful on your skin. Mine. You’re mine for life,” his eyes flick up to peer into mine and I shudder as the emotions play in his eyes.
And I’m yours for life,” he whispered, leaning in again to kiss me.
