Maya’s POV
After hearing everything my master and his parents had discussed, I felt down that they would be that way towards me. I wasn’t sure if I was justified to feel the way I did, I was just torn down emotionally.
My master had defended me which was good, it felt nice.
“Maya, is there something you would like to have?” I
He walked in and peeped from the side of the door.
“No, or we could have dinner with everyone like we always do. That’s fine.” His reaction made it seem like I was offending him.
I owed him obedience, so I changed mind. “I’ll have whatever is available.” I told him.
It felt ironic that he would serve me. After what went down in the morning, I felt like my spirit had been drained out and I barely wanted to do anything or desires anything.
Perhaps, my desire to have nothing was something thati actually resonated with and it didn’t even relate with being offended with what happened.
I was called minutes later by my master who had told me the table was prepared for everyone to come have their meals.
I got up from the bed where I had been relaxing on for a while so I could follow him out.
When I got there, everyone had been prepared and were already there. Even the boys who I thought were always late to meals, showed up on time.
I grabbed a sit by my master and I could feel his parent’s eyes on me or maybe I was projecting. The meal ended up being really quiet with little talks here and there.
“Honey? You don’t seem as jovial as usual,” my master’s mom spoke up.
I glanced at her to see if she was truly serious after what had happened earlier.
“Nothing, ma.” I replied to her.
“If we hadn’t trained, I’d have suggested brightening up your day with some challenge, since that’s all we know you like.” I spared Caleb a smile after he had said what he said.
” Anyway, what do you like?” He continued.
” I don’t know.” I shrugged.
” Come on, there should be something. All of us like one unique thing or the other.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
I thought deeply and I was getting tired of the way I was getting harassed with the questions, but then I remembered my status and didn’t react.
On the good side, my master was there to feature to him to leave me alone in my mood and he finally gave up.
The meal continued in silence and we finished up at a time with some workers coming to clear up the place while we all parted ways and I was the first to leave to my room.
I wasn’t sure what happened with the meals and everyone later on. The bed was my comfort zone and that was where I went to afterwards. I threw myself on it and covered myself up.
I imagined how much I would miss the comfort after going back to hell’s pit. Then, everything made me begin to rethink everything I had in mind about getting out of the hell’s pit and who I would be with afterwards.
I remembered Venom calling me his mage and every other to hing that happened within the little drama that occurred with his parents.
“Am I giving him a hard time?” I asked myself.
My body was calming and all the anger and dislike from earlier calming itself in my body.
I curled up in the bed missing how he would hold me again night.
I thought about where he could be. After dinner, he had not returned into the room and he was probably helping with something else or working, he had managed to keep it steady even when we came back to his parent’s for training.
I got out of the bed and went in search of him in the living room, there, I found him sitting all by himself on the couch.
I had assumed the whole family would be out there.
I walked slowly past his back to find a spot on the chair, but when I thought I had escaped his ears, he said, “hey.”
“Dammit!” I exclaimed and joined him on the chair.
“You know, it’s not so hard to sense you. I’m your mate.” He said, I looked at him and curled under his arms.
He stretched them out widely for me to rest well.
“Are you back to your normal self?” He asked me.
I nodded on his chest and just laid there listening to his heart beat and thinking of how much I would miss him after returning back to hell’s pit.
“I’m sorry for what happened. It shouldn’t have happened that way. They were only trying to take caution for their child.” He tried explaining things to me.
It was pitiful and loving at the same time and held me closer to him.
For the moment there, we were still and together without making any movements. I thought about the family and chances that they might walk in on us.
“Can we go to the room, master?” I asked politely.
He only looked at me and smile and he did the unexpected afterwards.
He stood up from the chair and lifted me from underneath and carried me into the room.
I giggled slightly as he did that. “Stay quiet my princess, we don’t want to alert everyone.”
I covered my face in his chest and we kept on moving. When we entered the room, he dropped me on the bed and joined me on it.
He undressed himself and suggested that he had a bath before coming to bed with me. I waited patiently on the bed and kept myself company with the imagination of him.
I could hear the sound of the water pouring on the floor and I decided I would take off my clothes too and go join him inside there.
The wolf wanted in me wanted him and I think I felt him or maybe it was perception. Either way, I went in.
