Chapter 20: Violet's p.o.v.... 20

you have such belief in your moon goddess, i am not sure about any of this, except the voice in my head keep telling me to trust you’

‘Silver, she is your wolf’

‘you have spoken’ i now sounded shocked

‘not me personally no, but Brax is talking to her, she hasn’t showed herself to him yet, but i think that has something to do with you’

‘me?’

‘yes well, your bond needs to grow, wolves build a bond before their first shift, the difference

Which people don’t know about us, Laura and you had no real guidance, it was just snip bits of information you managed to source’ he could see me struggling to digest the last part of our

conversation i could tell he didn’t want me to feel too overwhelmed it was evident he didn’t want me to find a need to withdrawn from him and his wolf, so he curb the rest of the conversation for tomorrow.

‘come on it’s time we went to bed’

‘i will make the bed in the guest room’ he coughed he really didn’t like that remark, quipping it in the bud right away, if i thought he was going to spend the night away from me seemed i was mistaken

‘there is no separate bed baby’

‘you are joking...right’ i don’t know i was shocked but turned out i still was, uncomfortable probably was more accurate.

‘no, i am not, this is us baby there is not going to be a divide between us’

‘but’

‘no Violet, this is one thing i will not budge on’

‘you don’t budge on anything from what i can see’

‘not true, i am respecting that you would not want me to knock you over the head and carry you off the to the wolf den’ i shook my head at me, he had amused me which was a distraction i had wanted.

He carried me to my room placing me on my own on the bed, i rushed into the bathroom grabbing the fullest covering pyjamas i owned, i didn’t close the door there really didn’t seem much point, i trusted him enough not to invade my privacy any more.

I could hear him moving around the room, guessing he was getting ready to go to bed. I took some really deep breaths and walked out into my room trying desperately to turn off the light, but he put it back on instantly

‘there is no hiding here Baby’

‘but’

‘there are no buts either, you are beautiful and the scars you fear are the markings on a map depicting the story of your life, i love them’

‘but what if its worse then you’ve imagined’

‘baby i am yours warts and all, just like you are mine scars and all’

I slowly removed my dressing gown revealing some of the scaring to my neck and shoulders, i had managed to cover everything else, i climbed in snuggled up next to him my ass wiggling a little to close to his groin but he was in my bed i was getting comfortable regardlessly of his discomfort and that is how i fell asleep

wrapped in his arms.

That’s how i woke encase in his arms, i lay there for a moment it was strange how warm and safe i felt

‘he is your mate, that’s why you feel this way’ the voice was back

‘silver?’

‘i see Brax likes to talk’

‘was it a secret’

‘no, it is good they shall things with you, not all Alpha’s have his view’

‘you know his views’

‘i hear much even if i was hidden from sight’

‘why didn’t you come and help me when i needed you’ i felt hurt now knowing she was inside me all the time i was beaten and hurt’

‘you had not met him then’

‘like that was a good enough answer’

‘what does that even mean’

‘he was the one who awakened us Violet’

‘i don’t understand but you will soon, but we need him to help you grow and protect us’

‘ i don’t need anyone to protect me any more’

‘i did what i could back then, i helped you heal’

‘you should have left me to die’

‘don’t say such things you are the moon goddess’s daughter’

‘like that means anything’

‘don’t say that she loves you’

‘really that’s why she left me like garbage to be found and put into a kids home because she loved me so much’

‘she had to protect you’

‘whatever, but i know one thing if i could have a child i wouldn’t fucking treat her like she was a sack of rubbish’

‘the goddess loves you’ i didn’t want to listen to silver’s rubbish any more so i shut her out, i was even quite proud that i had managed to do it, well until the voice behind me made me screech and jump out of my skin

‘finished talking to silver, were you fighting’ made me wonder how he knew what i was doing, was it a bond thing or a him thing. I turned in his arms to look at him, trying to read him a little he looked like a Greek god of old, handsome, i knew he was gorgeous from when we met at the club but up this close he was outstandingly sexy with his messy hair, bright eyes watching me observing him, feeling a tad abashed now i thought i should pull myself together and change the subject. ‘how did you know we were talking?’

‘she smells of lady’s mantle and the smell was abruptly dissipated’

‘oh, it’s a wolfy thing then’ he looked at me like i had develop two head before he spoke ‘wolfy’ he was smiling as he said it which was good for a minute there i thought i had offended the most ruthless wolf around here. He kissed my nose as a response which actually relaxed me, silver was right about one thing he made me feel safe and strangely i found that reassuring, well in part there was another part of me that hated the way things between us were clicking together quickly.

I began to pull away but he had other ideas, pulling me back to him

‘where do you think you’re going?’ it through me i looked into his eyes there was a playfulness there relaxing me ‘i was going to make a start on breakfast’

‘not yet, i have my mate in my arms, something i have been craving for years let me enjoy you’

‘Elijah i don’t’ he cut me off instantly before i had chance to finish my sentence ‘Violet i am not talking about fucking you, when we do i want it to be special, i will make love to my mate, this now i want to get to know you and we work at your pace ok’

He seemed so sincere but does he know i have never really been with a man, there was Nathaniel in college but we had never had sex, yes we had played and touched each other but both of us wanted

to save ourselves
