Chapter 30

Scarlett

A low growl vibrated in his chest as soon as the words left my mouth. Biting down on my bottom lips I tried to control the moan that was about to escape when she slightly lifted his hips up. His hard member rubbed on my c**t as he pulled closer.

" don't say anything that you don't mean," he said in his deep and husky voice. His eyes darkened with lust as his jaw ticked.

" I meant everything I said, Luke," I said and looked into his eyes. Looking at his face one could tell how much he is controlling himself back.

I went up on my knees to get to his eye level. Cupping his cheeks I placed a soft kiss on his forehead. A soft sighed escaped his lips when my lips made contact with his forehead.

" I want to be with you even knowing it wouldn't be easy to do that but still I want to be your friend. I want to be a part of your life," I confessed. I don't want to hold myself back any longer this time. Life is too short to regret.

" I want to spend the rest of my life with you," I said.

" You are too young to say that love," he said, holding my waist tightly in his embrace.

" Am i?" I asked as I still didn't know his age.

" 29," he said suddenly as if he read my mind.

" what?" I asked in utter shock as a gasp left my mouth.

" Yeah, it has been a few years though that I am staying at 29," he said.

" We aren't immortal but the moon goddess blessed us with many things and one of them was our age and beauty. Werewolves stop ageing after 23," he added.

" That's old," I said softly, looking at him with my widened eyes.

" I am going to show you what this old man can do, kitten," he said before standing up with me in his arms. I immediately wrapped my legs around his torso as he got us out of the bathtub and walked to sink. He made me sit on the cold marble sink top as he began to wipe me. After he was done with me. He wiped himself.

Unintentionally my eyes started roaming all over his body. His body looked like it was carved out of stone. My eyes wandered at South to his c**k which is now as hard as a rock and thick veins were visible on it.

" like what you see?" He asked in his deep voice.

" Believe me baby, I love what I am seeing now," he whispered into my ears, coming closer to me. I completely forgot that I was sitting naked as the day in front of his eyes to be feast on.

" pervert," I said as I covered my chest using my hands. He chuckled before picking me up in his arms in bridal style. He took me into the bedroom and walked to the bed.

" You have nothing to be afraid of and that too from me," he said as he went on a serious mode all of a sudden.

" Wait here," he said, making me sit on the soft mattress.

He walked towards the closet and went in. I immediately went for the blanket that was on the bed, wrapping around my shoulders, I waited for him to come out. I bite down on my lower lips to stop myself from smiling thinking about him and my confession.

I was snapped out of my chain of thoughts when he closed the door of the closet. He looked at me, narrowing his eyes as he took slow and steady steps towards me.

" Here," he said, handing me a shopping bag.

" You don't need to hide anything from me," he said. Taking the bag from his hand and keeping it aside as I looked at the ground while fidgeting with my fingers. I didn't know how I was going to confront him about the things I had heard before he came here.

" kitten," he said as he kneeled down in front of me.

" What happened in the forest?" I asked, finally looking up at his face.

" Who told you that?" He asked.

" I heard someone say that you fought with an alpha and he disappeared in front of your eyes. And before I could hear more I collapsed screaming on the ground feeling hot as if someone was setting me on fire," I explained.

" I know, baby girl. The process started faster than I thought," he said with a sigh and a small smile.

" I marked your scent. So, that everyone could know that you are off limits and mine. But I should have started in one week and not a day after," he added.

" oh.

" You were in heat. And your body was calling for me…..

" to mate?" I asked, cutting him off and I regretted almost immediately for saying that out loud.

" yes," he said as his smile widened. I could feel myself getting hot all of a sudden.

" What will happen if I go on heat again?" I asked.

" we will figure it out,"

" isn't there any way to stop it?" I asked worriedly. I can't endure the same pain I had gone through a few hours ago.

" it will be much more painful if….. he trailed off. Narrowing my eyes at him I leaned over until our faces were inches apart.

" You need to stop it because it is coming back again and I can feel it," I said, cupping his cheeks.

" I trust you and I am willing to be your mate but make this stop," I said. My whole body started getting hot.

I unwrapped the cover and let it fall on the bed as I fanned myself with my hand.

" So hot," I said.

" Ummmm," a moan escaped from my mouth when I touched my neck. It felt so good, my eyes suddenly flew open in realisation. His touch, I thought and looked at him.

When my gaze finally fell on him he was looking at me, his eyes darkened with lust and hunger. Then I looked at his hand before grabbing him by his wrist. He looked confused but didn't say a word.

I placed his hand on my cheek and my eyes immediately closed at the delicious feeling I was having from his touch.

" your touch……. It…. Feels so….. good," I said my words were coming out slurry.

" Umm," I moaned again as his hand slipped down from cheek to my neck.

" No, baby you aren't ready yet?" He said and I was immediately snapped out of whatever I was feeling. I was taken aback by his words.

" what?" I was both shocked and angry. And I could feel it.

" You and your body won't be able to take me, love" he said. I saw his eyes were glazed for a moment and he stopped talking to me.

" I called Aurora here and she will help you to deal with the heat. Remember if I come here again just don't let me do anything to you," he said and I nodded my head. I didn't know why but right now I was feeling humiliated and as his father's words rang in my ears.

Grabbing the cover I wrapped it around me and I kept my gaze on the floor.

" I will come back soon, love. Forgive me," he said and leaned towards me.

" I didn't plan our day to be like this," he sighed and wanted to place a kiss on my forehead but I moved away from his touch.

I felt like a sl*t, clinging to him and looking for a release when I am more than capable of doing that on my own.

" Scarlett," he whispered my name but I didn't spare him a glance.

A loud bang made us look towards the window and he turned on his heels going towards the window before jumping down, ripping his shirt on his way. I felt like my heart stopped for a second seeing him jumping out of the window.
