CHAPTER 42
I am completely out of words. My mind is blank. I can’t think of anything else right now. His words…are making my heart flutter and at the same time scared. I don’t know why…but why does it make me nervous?
I looked away and stepped back a bit. Our distance is suffocating me. It’s another kind of feeling. It’s making me out of breath.
“What do I think about you?” he added. I swallowed hard when he stepped forward, filling the distance I made between us. “Those questions made me confuse, Cristine…” he said. My lips parted and never dared to meet his eyes because I am afraid that my eyes look would be turn out too hopeful. Now, I know why I am scared.
I’m scared because I might not be able to stop myself from falling for him. I am scared that if I see a glimpse from his eyes that he likes me back…I’d run towards him and couldn’t be able to
CHAPTER 43My eyes never leave Mrs. Felicia even though I heard the door opened for Ronald and Rael’s arrival. I felt so awkward and uncomfortable knowing that Rael’s eyes also never leave mine! I sighed heavily and remained quiet as possible.“Fin…you know what? I’m thirsty.” Rael said out of nowhere. I felt Fin’s gaze on him.“You went outside earlier, and you didn’t had time to drink water?” Fin countered with sarcasm. I wanted to laugh but I don’t want it to backfire on me.“The water wasn’t enough. I am still thirsty. Can you accompany me?” Rael said in his obviously lying voice. I secretly looked at Rael and he was also smirking at me. I glared at him, but he wasn’t affected at all. Damn this man!“I’m tired, Rael. Stop your stupid mouth,” Fin said and lazily rested his head on the wall, but Rael went to him and pulled hi
CHAPTER 44I feel like I am going crazy. There’s a lot happening these past few days, and I can’t believe this is happening. I still couldn’t believe that I am mated to a human and now that this is happening…it really is true.I am really mated to him.The Goddess of the moon really paired me to a human…to him.I closed my eyes intently and stayed behind the tree. I took a deep breath as Ronald’s face popped up inside my mind. I thought that the Goddess just mistaken it because I waited for days to hear Ronald’s mind but still, I failed…and now that I really heard it, loud and clear…I still couldn’t believe it.I peeked a bit again and sighed heavily when I didn’t saw Ronald anymore. Maybe he already entered his house. Thoughts suddenly waved inside my mind. Thoughts about Ronald. What am I gonna do now?Why am I thinking twice? Why am I suddenly confused of
CHAPTER 45If I am a jelly right now, I probably melted in front of him. I can’t believe I am kissing Ronald Madrigal right now. And that’s not it! Ronald is the one who initiated the kiss! I don’t know what to feel. I don’t know what to do. I am confused and feel like paralyze as he slowly withdraws from the kiss.I was stunned and couldn’t be able to talk. He was staring at me, watching my reaction but I am too stunned to even have a reaction!He stands up straight, freeing me from his hold. He cleared his throat and heaved a deep breath. “I’m sorry.” He said and walked away. My lips parted because I feel like it was whirlwind that suddenly blew on me. I swallowed hard and touched my lips where I felt his kiss.It wasn’t my first kiss. But…why does it feels different? Why does it feel amazing?But…wait…why did he say sorry to me?I looked at the house
CHAPTER 46The only thing that’s important for me right now is the safety of the people I care about, and I will not let Carlos and Herman harm them. I’ll try my best to protect them. I’ll try my best to keep them and that’s what I am going to do right now.I know that this is dangerous. Alqamar already warned me about this and if I’ll be given a chance to do it, I’ll do it again without thinking twice.I hid myself behind the wall while I watched Herman and Carlos entered Mrs. Felicia’s room. I blew out my breath and looked from my left to right to observe if Herman and Carlos have other men who follows them. I closed my eyes intently and hardly concentrate myself to vitalize my sense of hearing. I am not good at this, but I should try my best.“Where are they?” I heard Carlos’ voice asking.“They should be here. We asked the nurse before we came here. The nurse said t
CHAPTER 47I closed my eyes intently hoping that sleep would come to me. But it didn’t. I tried different positions, but I still can’t sleep. Damn it! How can I sleep when Ronald’s words are keep echoing inside my mind?!I don't know what to do just to sleep. Should I wait until I fall asleep? But how when my mind can’t stop thinking about him?! Damn! I think I am going crazy!After he said those words, I didn’t know what to say that only the silence overhangs us. It was an awkward moment that I accidentally moved the bowl of soup that it pour all over my clothes! It breaks the silence between us. I washed in his bathroom, he lends me his shirt and after that he told me that I should rest. He didn’t say anything and just left the room.He didn’t say anything because maybe he thinks that it will make things less awkward, but it left me thinking of many different things that it keeps me awake! What am
CHAPTER 48It was a good sleep. It was comfortable and warm. I feel so safe especially that I can smell Ronald’s scent this close. My eyes suddenly widened when I realized something. Ronald’s scent? My eyes slowly traveled towards the person next to me over this bed. And my heart started to pound when I saw Ronald’s peaceful sleeping face. I swallowed hard when I realized our position. I am hugging him so tight! My right leg is encircling his waist and I can’t believe I did that while we were sleeping!Damn it! I slowly distanced myself from him, so he won’t wake up but instead of getting away I felt his hand on my back and pushed me more to him! My eyes widened as I tried to calm down myself. I remember what happened last night and it’s enough to make my heartbeat go wildly. I stopped when my eyes fixed on him. This is the first time I witnessed him sleeping this peaceful.I can’t take my eyes away from hi
CHAPTER 49On my way towards Carlos’ house, I still can’t help but to think about Ronald. He’s a human and he’s mated to me, but human isn’t supposed to read anything about us. Yes, they can feel passion and other feelings that includes love because it was our band but other than there’s nothing else you can do. That’s why being mated to humans are rare.Because when we are mated to humans’ things would not be fair. Because once you consummate the bond, it means you’re both officially connected with each other, and the wolf is the one who is greatly affected to it. If the human has someone else, love someone else, or even have physical contact maliciously with someone else, the wolf will suffer. It will be the cause of his death.And it’s not the same with humans because they’ll not feel it. They won’t feel anything even the wolf has someone else. But it’s too impossible
CHAPTER 50I stared at Mrs. Felicia’s face still peacefully sleeping. She’s not that pale anymore and much look healthier now than before. I can’t believe that Carlos can do this on his own mother. Or maybe…he didn’t treat her as his mother that’s he can be able to hurt her like this.“You were so desperate to hide her, who is this person that you want to hide her from?” he asked while we’re both staring at Mrs. Felicia who’s lying on the hospital bed. Dr. Raymond put her here and thankfully he didn’t ask questions anymore about it. Ronald also didn’t know the reason. He just followed what I want to.“Her son did this to her,” I said. I felt him neared me but still, he’s standing right behind me. “How did you know?” he asked. I sighed heavily and looked down on the floor. “I know her son and he told me this. He wants her mother, but I have b
