The morning sun shone into the room and landed Athan's handsome face. I looked at his face greedily and wanted to touch his cheek with my fingers, but I didn't want to wake him up. If possible, I wish time could stop at this moment.
Even when he's asleep, he still looks full of energy. His brows stretched out, as if he was having a good dream. He was like a sleeping beast, wild and manly. But I know that when he opened his eyes to look at me, there was so much tenderness in his eyes that made me couldn't help but want to sink into his sight.
Suddenly, the corner of his mouth raised and he laughed lightly, “morning stranger, would you quit staring, you are giving me blush.”
I felt a little startled that he busted me, and wanted to look away. But before I moved my body, he got up and quickly put me under him, his deep eyes looked into mine and leaned closer and closer…
After a hot and wet kiss, both our breaths went heavier, he tapped my nose and smiled: “you have been treating me so well lately, I’m flattered. ”
Guiltily, I looked away, worried that he would find something wrong with me, “let’s get up, you have lots to do today.”
I already checked with Markus, Athan had been dealing with David Hunter’s pack, ever since they started the “war”. Although it’s now quite obvious that Athan had won, David’s pack demanded him to hand David over. Today was supposed to be the day they negotiate about this matter.
“I will probably be away for two to three days, ” he got up and put on a shirt, “their pack is in another city, they suggested truce. I need to be there in person.”
“Will it be safe?” I asked with worry.
“Don’t worry,” he leaned down and rubbed me in his arms, “The lycan king will be there as witness for the truce. I will leave Markus for you, stay home and wait for me to return.”
“It’s okay, let him go with you,” I pretended to look for my clothes so I didn’t have to meet his eyes: “I will go home and take care of Mike and Lily after Jack’s surgery, the kids miss me.”
He paused and looked at me: “why don’t you just take the kids to here?”
I was stunned by Athan question, but luckily he didn’t insist. He continued putting on his clothes and said: “But the little ones probably need to get used to the environment, and maybe we should take it slow.”
I nodded and felt relieved, “I will probably stay home for a week, and maybe take them for a short trip on the weekend.”
“Just make sure you mention me to them,” Athan smiled and raised his eyebrows, “and tell them that I will buy them anything they want.”
Before we left the room, I grabbed Athan’s hand and hugged him again. I wrapped my arms tightly on him, and greedily inhaled his scent.
“Don’t worry my dear,” he kissed my forehead and laughed: “although it feels nice that you worry about me.”
“Athan…” I took a deep breath and mustered the courage to look at him, but when I met his dark green eyes, I flinched again, “just be careful.”
“I will, wait for me to come home.” his smile made me ashamed, I was a coward, I didn’t deserve his love.
His car was gone, I stood on the windowsill watching the black car slowly drive away, my heart sank little by little. I turned around and looked at my room. In fact, I only lived here for less than a month, but it was already full of memories. From the first time I met Athan Buffay, he was the billionaire of Diamond City, and the might Alpha of a huge werewolf pack, I was so afraid of him. But he slowly approached me, melted me, and made me choose to trust him and rely on him. He was brave and strong, yet he cried for me and went mad for me. I still remember the time he told me that he loved me, I guess I will never have the chance to love him back.
I didn’t take anything from the villa, just the small suitcase that came with me. When I shut the door, I felt part of me was dead…
“Are you almost home, Katherine?” Mona asked me on the phone, she was already at my old house packing.
“Almost there,” I hit the gas and drove faster, passing the main road and turned into the area.
I didn’t have lots of time, I had to finish packing by today and move everything by tomorrow. I got off the car and walked fast to home.
Suddenly, I strong force pushed my shoulder and I almost fell. I hardly kept my balance and looked up, and saw an unexpecting face.
“Little bitch, give me my daughter back!” A middle aged woman stood in front of me with a fierce look on her face, her sharp scream drew others attention.
I was shocked and stunned there, the woman was my step mother Ann West, how did she know my address?
