A Little More to Love Chapter 13
Leena's POV It's late in the evening when I find myself able to move around again. I clamber out of the bed and place my bare feet on the stone floor. A shiver makes its way through my body from how cold it is and I wince. I make my way through the room, exploring my new surroundings. As I come to an ornately carved armoire, I grow curious as to what style clothes the Lycan king dresses himself in. I grab the handles and swing the doors open wide and gasp at the sight. These aren't his clothes, they're beautiful gowns for all occasions. My hand goes to the fabric of each and I feel my mouth hang open. They feel as luxurious as they look. I find a beautiful dusty rose colored gown meant to wear during casual settings. I grab it off the hanger and pull it down into my arms. The soft silky texture has me in awe and I decide that I will change into it. As I start removing the hospital gown from my body, I catch a whiff of something. Oh my goddess, what is that awful smell? My nose c

Damon's POVThe rays of the early morning sun peek through my curtains and land right in my eyes. I wake up in annoyance by the sudden brightness and rub the sleep from my eyes with one hand. A slight groan escapes from me as I move around to get up. Except I can't move. Leena is lying on me, grasping me tightly in her sleep. Her mouth is slightly agape with some drool coming out the corner. The hair framing her face has come out from her braid and is in several different directions. I let out a small chuckle looking down on her sleeping predicament. She has really made herself at home here and seems to sleep more peacefully than earlier this week. I can't help myself any longer and stroke her hair and scalp gently. Her hair is soft like silk and I can smell my shampoo emanating from it and I can't help by smile devilishly at the thought of her smelling of me and only me. She startled the both of us by letting out one of those loud, sudden snores. After a second or two, she's bec

Leena's POVI've finished crying now and the only thing that comes from me are violent hiccups and my body shaking. I have no idea why I cried like that, mourning the life I had before now. It's not like it was even that great. After I finished crying for all those people gone, I started crying because I was finally free from that life. Then I started because I wasn't even sure if I was free in this one. So many different emotions are swirling in me and my head is foggy from it. This man hasn't let go of me since, not even a muscle twitch. He's just held me while I cried and snotted all over him. After a few minutes, my body starts to calm down, deeper breaths, less violent tremors, and no longer any sounds of anguish. It's then that I feel him move. He's rubbing his thumb in a slow, circular motion on my thigh. While it's soothing, there's sparks of electricity between us as he does so. If I'm a prisoner or even worse, a sex slave to the Lycan king, would he really be doing this
A Little More to Love Chapter 16
Damon's POVI'm not quite sure what I said or did, but I agree to walk her back to the room. The long walk back is spent in awkward silence, with only the sounds of our footsteps echoing along the stone floors. She's no longer holding onto me, but following a couple steps behind me. I glance behind and see her head hung low. She's completely distancing herself from me. I'm so confused as she initiated that kiss back in the room. I was more than willing to go further, but respected her wishes when she stopped it. I thought we were getting on better terms when she agreed to walk with me, so it has to be something that I said. The rest of the way back is spent with me replaying it all to figure out what I did. When we make it back to the room, she makes her way to the sofa in front of the fireplace and lays down, and curls up with her knees pulled up into her torso. Instead of ruining any good grace she's extended, I just go to the fireplace and work on getting a warm fire started s

Leena's POVI'm cuddled up against this man that I've barely known an entire week. Did I really just do what I think I just did? I did and it felt, well I don't know how I would describe it. The realization hits me. I've just given this man my virginity. I don't know why I even did it. I was just lecturing myself earlier today about keeping my distance. He just makes it so hard. His presence is calming and soothes my fears. I felt so guilty for how I made him feel earlier that I wanted to make amends. I don't know what came over me. However he was gentle and he allowed me to lead the encounter, which consoled any fears I had about his intentions. A slave master and a torturer wouldn't relinquish control like that. My body can still feel the effects of what we've just done and I feel weak and exhausted. However, I need a bath, so I can't succumb to it just yet. I roll over and try to get up, failing to do so. "What's wrong mate?" I hear softly behind me, filled with concern. "Jus
A Little More to Love Chapter 18
Damon's POVI wake up on the sofa with my head resting on the softest surface I've ever laid on. I open my eyes to see Leena sleeping, head laid back and mouth agape and loud snores tearing from the hole. I chuckle quietly so I don't wake her up and lift myself up slowly. After I feel like it's safe to stand up, I do so and carefully lay her down across the sofa to ease the pressure on her back. She must have stayed like that all night long. There's a pang in my heart for not being able to tell her anything, but still depending on her like I did last night. I tried to clean myself up and change my clothes to mask the scent of blood and death, but I know she smelled it. When I turn around, I notice the journal sitting on the arm of the chair next to the fireplace. Was she reading that? Where did she get it? It looks awfully similar to the one that was on my desk. I pick it up and open it up to the spot she left off at. It's over halfway finished! How can she read this gibberish? I
A Little More to Love Chapter 19
Leena's POVI feel nothing but happiness right now. He actually agreed to finding me a tutor. Anytime I asked anything about learning, I was beaten and ridiculed. So the fact he agreed to it made me feel unimaginable joy. While he went out to work with Torrance, I made my way to the library for more reading materials. That last journal captivated my attention so much that I must know more, preferably about those mystery Hybrid creatures. I return to the room and set the journals down on the nightstand. I'd love to stay up and read more, but exhaustion is taking over and I have to lay down and rest. I don't really remember what happens next as I fall asleep pretty quickly, but I do remember waking up slightly when strong, muscular arms grab me closer to the body they belong to. I've never experienced affection like this before and I find myself craving it more everyday. I notice now whenever I'm near Damon, that I'm at my most peaceful. There's something about him and our relations
A Little More to Love Chapter 20
Damon's POVTo say she surprised me would be a understatement. I never knew she had that kind of fire in her, especially since she's been so timid since I've brought her back here. However, I don't particularly like how she's used that fire. I admit that I'm probably too controlling. She's right though, I'm not used to being told no. I can't sleep now, not without talking to her. I get out of bed and get clothes on. I know she's in the library, but she said not to follow her. I know I should respect her words, but something tells me they may not have been her true intentions. What am I thinking? That's toxic and I have to change if I want her to be the best version of herself. However, we do need to discuss better communication skills. If she wants to be a strong, independent woman, it takes two to make that happen. If I don't know what she's thinking, how can I support her? That's it, I'm going to the library. She may not like it, but I have to establish this boundary for both o
